EVO 2022 Melty Blood Player Beats Opponent 3-2 With Guitar Hero Controller

EVO 2022 is already making history with crazy fighting game plays like a Street Fighter 5 pools match featuring Caba versus Uzura. The craziest so far is a player beating another with an unorthodox controller for a fighting game.

A participant named My Wife’s Son was competing in the Melty Blood: Type Lumina EVO 2022 tournament and brought a Guitar Hero controller, of all things, to play in the tournament. He did quite well for himself. He managed to snag 129th place using a Guitar Hero controller, even going 3-2 against a player named Rix. I’ll say this: My Wife’s Son makes it look easy and effortless.

It may not be a top 8 placing, but he made it pretty far while making a spectacle out of it. At the very least, people are talking about it on Twitter. The last time he used a Guitar Hero controller in an EVO tournament was in EVO 2019 during an Under Night In-Birth tournament, competing under the name Mad Camelz Lord Hoseph Dong.
