doing fun inhouse 2XKO casual 2v2s with @dacidbro.bsky.social and this sequence went a little silly

Even with being a teacher full time (and taking night classes to study to become a teacher) I still find the time to be okay at 2XKO🙂

Also got a 2nd place finish last night in a duo only tournament with someone I met the same night so that's cool too.

Feels good to compete in a game I love so much

I had a fun time doing 2XKO stuff this weekend! Went to Iron Grid for the first time yesterday and got 5th with a spontaneous duo (i'll post pictures of the event later) and then played an online weekly bracket called clover clash with @dacidbro.bsky.social and we got 3rd! I'm posting 2 funny clips:

I love this photo taken of me at the 2XKO Chipotle cabinets even if I look silly locking in with my tongue out 😭

This was the bracket I was getting that 1st place prize :^)

Team Cherry told me that Hollow Knight has sold 15 million copies, making it one of the biggest indie games of all time.

What's really wild is that in February 2019, when Silksong was announced, Hollow Knight had only sold 2.8 million copies.

The full story: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...
Why ‘Silksong’ Took Seven Years to Make
The highly anticipated indie game has been in production for so long that it’s become an internet meme

i mean silksong in 2 weeks is nice (i guess...) but NO tales of the abyss related news? what was team cherry thinking?!?!
tales of the abyss heads know to be on the lookout for the silksong special announcement stream👀

With 2XKO, Riot and @unconkable.bsky.social are trying to make fighting games more fun to play with friends... AKA not just beating up pals who don't play. 🥊💥😵‍💫

But can they do it? Check out our latest article as we find out why so many tag fighters are taking the spotlight now. ⬇️

I went to EVO and then got a chance to write for @teamliquid.com about the upcoming tag fighter resurgence in the FGC.

S/O to @strawberryeclair.bsky.social and @unconkable.bsky.social for talking with me!

Also thanks to @austinrryan.bsky.social for the opportunity!!

Why are there so many tag fighters?
Marvel Tokon, Invincible VS, 2XKO, the tag fighter is back! We talk to the games' developers (and Majin Obama) to learn why - and how the games stand apart.

holy hell it's good hearing the classic kirby air rider music again

it was always fun when people complimented my past guides at Dot Esports/more recently people thanking me for my Balatro tips at IGN.

It would've been nice to be able to keep writing guides if the field was more stable! but I guess I keep the spirit of the job as I career shift into being a teacher
From Nintendo Power Hotline to now, human labor has always been the soul of video game guides

I've tried to delete the phrase "this isn't for everyone" from my brain as a way of describing a piece of art because:

1) Yeah, no shit

And

2) It sounds like you're self-conscious about expressing your feelings about it, and undermines the conviction of those feelings
