Twas Evo's Eve and all through the net



Not a gamer was tweeting, not buffs or new tech



The combos were learned from videos with care



Pools players hoped they wouldn't meet Sonicfox there.



The travelers were snuggled in hotel room beds



While trophies and dollar signs danced in their heads.



And King with his Bat, Buffalo with his Cap



Are now settling their nerves for a long pool lap



When out from the meta arose such a clatter



"The damage of Adam" some said was the matter.



Honeybee to the rescue with his technical flash!



Although many believe he will not see some cash.



Gross loving the light of green lantern's bright glow



Promised to all he would put on a show



But what I would hate, oh should it appear



Is a Top eight of Deadshots with no Arrow near



But with Netherrealm patches so lively and quick



We have to fear Swamp Thing and Emperor Knicks



Faster than eagles Evo players came



The Announcer's Lord Aris, He called them by name.



Now Slayer, Now Theo, Now Honey and Hazard



On Noobe, On Compbros More combos with swagger!



To the Top of the tourney 'til there are no names to call



Play away! Play away! Play away all!



Newcomers unsure of what gimmicks will fly.



Are surprised when they can't button mash and they die.



So to the Top eight, the best players knew



Wherever they go Sonic will be there too.



With his blue hat and big smile, so often aloof



With furries and bronies all clopping their hoofs



As I look at the bracket, shuffle players around



I hope DJT makes Beetle be crowned.



Adams and Aquamans all following suit.



I hope a good Cyborg will give them the boot.



At 4 o clock sharp I shall lay on my back



With my laptop a few beers and plenty of snacks



This is all in good fun so please let's be merry.



Scrubs like me have not popped their tournament cherry.



The stage has been set with all whistles and bows



Maybe Whiteboi will win twice with his Scarecrow



Maybe Madzin will pop off while gritting his teeth



Attacking with chairs those who sit beneath.



Watch out for Coach Steve! I've heard people tell me.



He's out to prove that even Grodd can be deadly.



Cowboy's a dark horse I say to myself



Dr Fate might be carried one man by himself.



Though I see matches come true in my head



I know in my heart I have nothing to dread



After all the hard work you guys put in this game



Only two days at Evo is such a shame



But let me stop now I could go through the night.



Happy Evo to all and to all a good fight!
