Casters
Ignideus
Ignideus has been a Shadowverse player, commentator, and content creator since 2017. Having built a community around the digital Shadowverse CCG, it was a natural development that his first real foray into physical TCGs would be through Shadowverse: Evolve. As an ambassador for Shadowverse: Evolve's English edition, his goal is to introduce the joy of the physical game to the wealth of players who got started on digital—especially since he was one himself—through content that is both educational and entertaining for players on both sides. You can find him on YouTube and X at @Ignideus.
DifferentFight / Kris
DifferentFight, a.k.a. Kris, is a Bushiroad TCG player since 2011, and a Shadowverse commentator playing since the launch in 2016. Currently residing in Tokyo, Japan, he is one of the ambassadors for Shadowverse: Evolve's English edition and actively competes in the Japanese edition since its release in Spring 2022. He aims to be a bridge between the Japanese and English communities in various TCGs, promoting the idea that trading card games are a communication tool that brings people of all backgrounds together. You can find him on various social platforms including but not limited to YouTube, Twitch, and X at @DifferentFight.
