The 2018 Chicago Open was won by Monday Begins on Saturday and Sunday Comes Afterwards, consisting of Matt Bollinger, Shan Kothari, Adam Silverman, and Matt Weiner, who beat A Dead Meme isn’t Art (Ike Jose, John Lawrence, Jakob Myers, and Andrew Wang) in the first game of an advantaged final. It was the first CO since 2012 in which a team did not clear the field.
The tournament was edited by Auroni Gupta, with Jordan Brownstein, Joey Goldman, Eliza Grames, Will Holub-Moorman, Jacob Reed, and Seth Teitler.
Due to a Chicago room reservations problem, the tournament was held at Northwestern University in Evanston, leading to endless "Evanston Open" and "Chicagoland Open" jokes. Reed has advocated for returning to the title "Virginia Open" as a compromise.
