Rewind Says He Knew He was Going to Win Injustice 2 at EVO 2018 in Top 48

The Injustice 2 tournament taking place at this year's Evolution Championship Series (EVO 2018) has finally concluded with Noble Esports NeatherRealm fighting game player Rewind defeating his teammate of Tweedy in the Grand Finals of the EVO 2018 Injustice 2 event. It was a back and forth battle, as both Noble Esports players did not want to lose to their teammate, but Rewind was ultimately able to take 3-1 victory with an excellent finishing combo with Catwoman.

TG: When Did you know that you had the win in hand to capture the EVO 2018 Injustice 2 Championship?

Rewind: "As soon as Dizzy beat Buffalo in pools, I felt like I was going to win the whole tournament. That was like top 48 when I felt that I was going to win."

TG: What was it like going up against your Noble Esports teammate in Tweedy in the Grand Finals of the Injustice 2 EVO 2018 Tournament? 

Rewind: "I'm used to going up against my teammates, so a team kill wasn't really a problem for me. It sucks that I had to take out my own teammate, but I was prepared for a challenge. Tweedy had a lot of momentum, but I felt like I was ready." 

TG: You put on an impressive performance with Catwoman in the Grand Finals against your Noble Esports teammate of Sweedy. Do you have any tips for players who would like to improve their play with Catwoman?

Rewind: "Just play patient. You don't need to keep jumping all of the time. Her jumps are good, but that is not all she is good at."

TG: With the Injustice 2 EVO 2018 Championship added to your list of accomplishments now, what does the future hold for you going forward?

Rewind: "I am trying to win everything from now on and keep trying to be on top for MK (Mortal Kombat) 11."
