FGC Philosophy
FGC Philosophy is about leveling up inside and outside the virtual arena. Learning from Fighting Games and the FGC as a whole we can grow together. As a competitive player, I strive to always improve and I want to share that knowledge with others. I also know that what you learn in one area of your life can be applied to other areas of life.

Tuesday Feb 06, 2024
It's been a whole dam month but we're here. New episode, new year, new goals! Let's talk about that.
As of recording this, I had just gotten back from Chicago. I went to a "Major" fighting game tournament called Frosty Faustings. I didn't compete, but I went to train and socialize. In this episode, I share my experience and thoughts on the event, and future goals for myself and this podcast.

#130. We predicted these Project L updates
Monday Feb 05, 2024
Monday Feb 05, 2024
A few years ago Megamaxstar and I discussed the future of the FGC and Project L. For those who don't know Project L is the codename for the fighting game that Riot is making. Riot is the creator of League of Legends. Megamaxstar joins me once again to talk about the new updates to Project L that drop last week! We watch the video diary and discuss the future of fighting games.

Sunday Aug 20, 2023
Sunday Aug 20, 2023
Baldurs Gate has been out for a while now and I can't believe the discussion happening right now. Some are saying that this game is so good that we should NOT expect other developers to make games this good! I get into this topic, explain the general discussion and get into my own opinion.
Let's do this.

My journey to mastery on Street Fighter 6 has been a slow one, but not unproductive. In this episode, I reflect on my journey so far. I also discuss the specific goals I want to hit along my road to mastery. It's easy to forget that success is about the journey, not the destination. This series is helping me to stay humble and to work hard.
Here are my current Street Fighter 6 goals
Improve my hit-confirms
Improve my overall knowledge and understanding of execution.
Improve my character matchup knowledge
