Back with another episode! This time it’s Evo 2009 3rd Place finisher Ed Ma, one of SoCal’s finest players. He placed the highest out of everybody on the West Coast so props to him! Also, thanks to Miles Mosley and his crew for creating the awesome intro that you hear at the beginning. For those not aware, apparently there are a lot of established musicians out there that play Street Fighter 4 casually and keep up with the scene so shoutouts to those guys! Street Fighter 4 has friends in the best and most unexpected places.

Fresh off his 2nd Place finish at Evo 2009, Justin took the time to do a podcast with me and chat about his experience this past weekend. I actually asked everyone on Twitter for suggestions, so if you’re not following me, you might want to do so in case I crowdsource some questions again.
Topics covered include:
his surprise switch to Balrog in the Grand Finals
his recent visit to Japan
the difference between American and Japanese competition
Evo surprises
his upcoming trip to SBO
Stay tuned for the next episode of The Street Fighter Podcast where my guest is Ed Ma, who got 3rd at Evo!
