There we go, stream schedule for the week.
The Friday and Saturday streams I'm not sure what I'm doing with yet, I'll figure that out over the course of the week.

I so very much want Cake to qualify, hes been working his ass off to give himself the best possible chance.
And doing so from OCE would be an absolutely massive achievement.

Gobou's win at BeePro Cup with MetallicCake taking 2nd makes the race for the point qualifier very intense!
Originally we had predicted that 350 would be enough to qualify, but we may have to change our estimates!

Im at that point in street fighter 6 where i feel like i can kinda hold my own in the 1600s with Blanka. Sure every now and then ill have a session where ill donate about 100 points, but being able to get back there feels pretty good.
Next step, maybe 1700s.

I keep on seeing stuff about Riftbound, and Id really want to get involved in it if only because of how invested ive been in LoR since its beta.
Things that are currently keeping me from getting some cards is availability, current economic situation, and how often id get to play irl.

Huge PB in the ZA run!
Still some areas to improve upon, but also going to be tough to get even close to the luck i got in some of the royales.

Hand editing your Windows Registry is not something I would normally recommend, but these instructions are simple and direct. Do exactly as directed and you'll be fine. If you get lost/stuck for some reason, tag me.
My new favorite kind of meme is "here are detailed instructions on how to turn off AI". 🔨

Why am I so against generative AI in games?
Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

Pretty happy looking at the 2xko patch notes. Touching on a lot of the really egregious stuff, and as someone whos playing a lot of Blitz the buffs look like fun.
A lot of those champs that got toned down are still likely to be a pain, but maybe itll feel less like a struggle.

Gonna have to call for a raincheck on the stream for tonight. Somethings come up, but I'll be back on tomorrow.
I'll get to the rank F runs next week, in time for the submission deadline.

As much as I would love to submit my 4+ hour speedrun games for the Sydney event, with it being just a two day thing I should probably go for the shorter categories.
Can save the big ones for the longer events.

There we go, Legends ZA under the 7 hour mark. Still a lot of improving to do, but encouraging to say the least.
Just need to do a lot of cleaning up of movement, major fights, and the royales.
But overall quite happy.
