I was so hype when I saw Evan’s name on the cover of this book. The fact that it delivered as hard as it did makes me even more excited for the next issue. Here’s hoping they give this book a longer lifespan than the other recent Black Panther spin-offs.

Wait, another Catherine?! Cathryn, Kate, Cathy?

I don’t know if the boom bap lover in me, or the unmitigated weeb in me is more upset that I’m digging this Lil Yachty track. Helps that the vocals are easy to tune out, and that they sample an amazing song, and nostalgia is pretty strong.

My Overwatch career in a nutshell: Gold Sym main, positive win rate, constantly harassed. Dual Main Mercy/ Sym, never allowed to play Sym without hassle, good plays looked at as anomalies, begin to be targeted because both characters are “tether” (read: No Skill) characters, drop to Silver. Eventually forced to drop…

Semi-related: What a fantastic day for Latinos in the FGC! Mena RD taking Capcom Cup, and Cloud taking Battle for the Stones put a smile on my face, not gonna lie. Mena more than Cloud, if only because that’s a bigger stage, and I’m a hopeless ChrisG mark.

Wiat, the video isn’t available in my country? That can’t be right, I’m American, there must be some sort of mistake!

I don’t buy it. There seems to be more than one, and it certainly doesn’t explain the giant Lovecraftian hand monsters. I’m going to chalk this up to a Psycho Mantis shaped “Jesus in the Toast” situation.

Ryu ranked around 6 is pretty good. Ryu is balanced around Ryu, so you want to make sure Ryu is somewhere from mid to high-mid.

This is the problem that Blizzard has allowed to fester until now. The community sees being bad, or only good with one character as an offense worth reporting. That is the kind of structural toxicity that leads to the more egregious instances of people being openly hostile, or griefing, because the people being chewed…

“There’s been no real attempt to create a sequel or expand on the Final Fantasy VII mythos since the game’s lukewarm reception in 2006.”

For what its worth, he goes by PPMD now.

Is he the one who sings Imagine?

Am I the only one reminded of an article on Kotaku detailing a young woman posing as an influential programmer from the Smash Bros mod Project M? What does it say about our society that some women see posing as a man as the only way to curry status, and power? Nothing good, I’m sure.

Since when is talking about sexual assault political? Is there really a red/ blue divide here? Are libertarians really going to bat for this legislatively? Is there a pro-Malka sexual assault lobby?

I wouldn’t go that far, but I can’t really blame you considering whenever we hear about Smash it is a TO not paying their winners, top players not playing the game because of controller issues, attendees being harassed, and random, often heavy handed rules about controllers of all things!

Frankly, I remain dubious that Ninty has anything to do with this. I believe this is squarely on the shoulders of the Smash community, just look at their council decision on the matter. Until accusations of Nintendo involvement become more widespread, or actual proof surfaces, I don’t believe that anyone at Nintendo…

I’ve been to many more Smash events than I have FGC events, and I couldn’t even compare the elitism from one to the other (I’m not talking about someone complaining about character picks btw). The hero worship prevalent in the Smash community really doesn’t have an analog in any other scene, so the “well both…

I don’t disagree that the Melee community has something seriously wrong with it.

I promise you it didn’t, and it isn’t possible. That is a blatant lie.

What do you mean they are not hard to come by? They’re out of production, and were basically sold out everywhere on launch, and that’s before factoring in the GCN controller adapter. I’m sure WalMart has a bunch they’re willing to throw at me if I checked, but then we have to factor in whether those controllers are…
