The Format

What is Battle Decks?

Battle Decks (also known as PowerPoint Karaoke) is an improv comedy format where presenters see their slides for the first time on stage and must improvise a coherent narrative on the spot.

Austin JS uses the PechaKucha format: 20 slides, 20 seconds each, auto-advancing. No pausing, no going back. Total time: 6 minutes 40 seconds.
