info_outlineOverview
2Legs and Pooz sweat through a Pacific Northwest heat wave, ranking every Shatterpoint box from S-tier BUY NOW to D —”maybe save this for later." Using their patented four-point criteria system (Vibe Check, Out-of-Box Playability, Mix & Match Potential, and Fun Factor), they debate which boxes new players should prioritize. Plus, tournament prep discussions, and the spicy side bet involving Boush and Cassian.
