Think you know who will make Top 8?

Think you know who will win it all?

Introducing the brand new Evo Fantasy Presented by AT&T. Jump into the competition with your fellow fighting game fans for the chance to prove your FGC knowledge, compete against one another, and win incredible prizes throughout Evo 2026.

Whether you're predicting tournament favorites, identifying dark horses, or calling your shot on Sunday, Evo Fantasy is your opportunity to turn your fighting game expertise into real rewards.

How Evo Fantasy Works

Participating is easy and completely free for users over 18. US residents only are eligible for leaderboard rankings & prizing. However anyone can create private play groups to enjoy! .

Step 1: Create an Upsets.gg Account

To get started, create an account on Upsets.gg and register for Evo Fantasy at upsets.gg/evo2026.

Once you're signed in, you'll be able to participate across all eligible Evo titles and begin making your predictions.

Step 2: Evo Fantasy Top 8 Picks

Before Evo begins, you'll submit your predictions for who you believe will make Top 8 in each game.

This is your chance to identify breakout performers, championship contenders, and surprise runs before a single match is played.

Think carefully, these picks will be locked once Evo competition officially begins at 10am PT on Friday.

Step 3: Evo Fantasy Top 8 Brackets

Once the official Top 8 competitors have been determined and championship brackets are finalized, the second phase begins. (Please allow up to 15 minutes from match conclusion for top 8 bracket validation.)

Participants will then predict how the official Top 8 bracket will play out, selecting winners and projecting the road to the championship.

Bracket predictions will lock 30 minutes before the beginning of each respective Top 8 competition.

From there, all that's left to do is watch the action unfold and see how your predictions stack up against the rest of the community.
