As someone too old to be targeted by clout chasing kids, I'm amused at this round of "new gen rulezz" vs. "the OGs will strike back". Reminder to all who are partaking this time around: The person who will be the best SF6 player is either 17 years old right now or is Tokido.

I've said for years, you only really love a game if you can get destroyed and still have fun. Bill Wellman smashing me 50-3 in MvC2 and talking the spiciest trash proved that I *LOVED* that game because it's still a happy memory. If you're not there yet, you just like winning.

Maybe it's mean to say, but I genuinely believe fighting game players are just built differently. Like after spending 25+ years playing competitively, you can just sense which of the "new blood" will stick around and be a problem just based on how they handle losses early.

Honestly this is why I fell off and it's a good thing. In early 2001 I could be a top player at MvC2 because like 9 people understood the basics of how Storm/Sentinel worked and by an accident of geography I was one of them. We're now able to play games at a much higher level.

Other than "take you for a ride" I genuinely don't remember MvC2's actual music at this point. For a full 10 years of my life an MvC2 match would always start with either the trumpet opening to Ricky Martin's "Livin La Vida Loca" or some Linkin Park track.

If this guy can perfect parry a mother bear attack and then land a full combo, American SF players can learn to parry in SF6.

Like 100 people have asked me why I've had the mask on 99% of the trip. Whether COVID or the old standard Evola that everyone caught every year back in the day, I'm not having that this year, I've got client meetings all week next week.

You won your Evo medal in 10 frame delay and by unplugging your router. I won my Evo medal in person and by Firebrand unblockabling the best Marvel players in the world. We are not the same.

Also since we're talking about "that", it is true that we were approached to go on Tosh.0 a couple years later. I don't know what they were going to do, if it was going to be a recreation or a talk show segment. My partner and I talked it over and we declined.

This is the problem with saving fan favorite/"DLC movers" for late in a game's lifespan. Two years ago this would have held my interest in the game and kept me playing Strive, but with SF6 out, T8 in 7 weeks, and other games on my backlog, it's just too late.

Doctor Doom can execute consecutive Photon Array Supers (given the right assist positioning). He can also do this WITHOUT an assist... stay tuned. #doctordoom #mvc2 #marvel #fgc

I still regret "playing it out" vs. Eddie Lee at B4 in a fairly meaningless match *TWENTY THREE YEARS AGO*. For 1 million dollars I'm going to walk up to my opponent, put a big ol' smile on my face and re-enact the Nemo vs. Itazan handshake picture. And you should too.

You’re in Grand Finals of Capcom Cup, it’s game 5, last round, 2 Million on the line and your opponent pauses… Do you take the win or play it out?

Obligatory finals day arena shot. The crowd is good already and there's probably another thousand or so waiting to get through security. It genuinely makes my heart happy to see the people supporting Marvel like this. I love this game and all you people so goddamned much.

Like I remember first playing NuckleDu at CEO ~13 years ago at SFxT before anyone outside of FL really knew him. I lamed him out with Bison/Gief because that's how I play and I remember he got mad, but asked INSTANTLY for more games. Right there, you knew, he was here long term.

My advice to all the young people in the scene is to remember that stuff on the internet is forever and you never know what's going to go viral. You might end up having people AT YOUR JOB OR IN PUBLIC ask about a random thing you said 10 years ago. You know, hypothetically...

For people who used to be grinders/lab monsters it's a hard realization. That to enjoy fighting games at this stage of your life, you're really just looking for something that will allow you to have maximum fun with minimum effort. We all become grappler players in the end...

2nd hurts more than going 0-2. If I went 0-2 I could at least go home early and get dinner or something. Getting 2nd meant spending all day and all night in an arcade to get smoked in grand finals with everyone watching.

My first Evo was from before they even called it Evo! This is B4 in summer 2000 in Folsom, CA. Super hype to be going back this year after a few years away from tournaments. 23+ years of choking and I got one more left in me!

Feel like I've been just dad-posting/unc-posting lately but I gotta say this is the best advice out there. Because I did games/poker for roughly 10 years of my life, at 35 I was working the jobs I should have been doing at 25. Next gen, please always have a job.

Seen a couple fgc posts about money and all I’ll say is Get a job. You don’t need something fancy but you need a job. Even working a generic gig and putting some money away for 10 years makes a huge difference. Don’t be 30 and only have professional gamer to put on your resume
