Since I'm gonna be here more and have seen this be a thing, let's give it a shot. If you are into the following, maybe follow me so I can follow back and find more of it.

-FGC (focused on GBVSR and SF6 but interested in all)
-pro wrestling
-League of legends (sadly)
-Anime
-Art blogs

Appreciate it
First-time commentary was a lot of fun, but man I feel like I did a lot wrong. I'm definitely gonna try to do it more, but I have some things I need to work on.

Doing my first bit of commentary tonight for a friends stream. I'm getting nervous but still excited to dip my toes into it.

Im having such a weird character crisis in this game man. I feel like I play a more keepaway style in tag games (Moridoom in MvC, Merkava Nine in BBTAG) that im just not doing in 2XKO and im thinking maybe I should.

But in grounded games, I play strike throw pressure monsters...

Why brain bad.

Me: when you are still learning a fighting game, you don't need a bunch of fancy combos, one to build meter and one to spend it should be enough.

Me playing a tag game where one of my characters has an install that changes their specials, and needs specific routing to build install gauge: oh no...

Made the mistake of peeping X (still have it for fighting game tech solely) to see the discourse about 2XKO pricing and hoo boy...

Big mistake.

So as it turns out doing helping out with and attending a wedding for 12 hours straight, standing for about 9-10 of those hours, and walking up and down a flight of stairs throughout turns you legs to jelly the next day.

Wild.

Hey... I know ive been in a mental time capsule this year where nothing has truly been going on and ive missed most of the year... but what do you mean its almost October.

Time isn't real man.
September 30, 2025 at 7:21 PM
So, juat about two weeks into the 2XKO beta and I have some thoughts. Keep in mind these are opinions from a dumb guy who plays fighting games as a hobby. Idk game design or balance (nor does frankly most people on social media) and what i say should be taken with a pile of salt. That being said...

Character Crisis sucks man. I need to lab more to hammer home a team (luckily its my Friday so I have 3 days to do so) but im between like 4 pairs rn.
September 19, 2025 at 3:24 AM
Oh yeah, also while I'm here posting I just want to say...

God 2XKO is a joy to play. I can't remember the last time I had a true character crisis from there being too many characters I liked. Some small nitpicks with the balance of some things, but overall, it's pretty great.
September 18, 2025 at 12:36 AM
So this year has been bad bad... but the good news is we might be back in a good headspace to where I can go back to being me.

To that end, I'll probably actually start doing shit on here more than just lurking and potentially may get back into content creation.

Went 3-2 at locals. Just outside of top 8 and last set went last game last round. Still don't feel like I'm great, but I can take games off great players, so now I just need to grind sets and get that next milestone.
February 16, 2025 at 12:53 AM
I love how in the year I'm going to 2 weddings and in general supporting others, my body decides "nah this is about me actually" and hits me with the worst gut pain I've ever had.

What a drama queen.

Finally got to playing Neva as Gris is one of my favorite games ever.

It's exactly what I was expecting from Nomada studios. I'm am mad, angry, upset, and all other synonyms.

10/10 improvement of Gris in every way. Man, I love this studio.

Most people: man, the holidays are such a busy time. I gotta get gifts, party prep, etc...

Me: man the holidays are such a busy time. I have an OS in strive I need to get down before Saturday, need to keep up on SF6 and GBVSR, and that's all while I'm dealing with Warframe 1999 dropping...

Sad that this turned out the way it has, especially for the granblue scene. Here's hoping things turn around for the better in the years ahead, but I can guarantee that if there is a granblue event, I will find a way to be there.

I may be a bit preoccupied when 2XKO drops, but I will still be there
Devastated that our locust cider location is always closed now instead of after Christmas like they were told. We were supposed to have two final meetups to say goodbye to Seattle skirmish and now it seems to have already happened. Thankfully someone got a group photo of some of us this past Friday

I've been taking a break from doing more online granblue brackets, and I really need to get back into it.

To that end, I will be getting back into streaming at least Saturdays for TNS so I can vod review off stream Sunday to get back to it.

Hopefully I stay consistent but it's me :^)

Had a good birthday yesterday, woke up today, and I've been so out of it today I couldn't leave my bed until 3:30pm.

I say this all to say, even though all that shit it's still been a great day bc the Seahawks beat the 49ers.
November 18, 2024 at 3:37 AM
No spoilers for either, but gotta say...

Watching Dandadan episode 7 followed by binging Arcane 2 act 2 probably wasn't the best call on my part emotionally.

Man...

One thing I've noticed here with everything being new is that over the years, Twitter was and still is a big hub for fgc resources (character tech specifically) that makes up where sites like Dustloop lacks.

While I can't make that up by myself, I'll do what I can. Bea Mains look out. #GBVSR_BT
