Welcome to the eighth week of “When’s Melee.” Dingus, Treetrunks, and Vilorious have compiled the Melee streams you should be watching over the weekend. If you have info about any other great events, either comment here or reach out on Twitter (linked below), and they’ll be added as soon as possible. Be sure to follow all of these channels on Twitch so you know when they go live (and supporting Melee content producers is pretty cool, too).
