3SO was an awesome experience! Got to meet, watch, and play against some of the most skilled 3rd strike players of the modern era. Was great seeing friends from the midwest and canada too. Could not have asked for a better weekend❤️

I'm in this weird spot with 3rd where I'm improving a ton and playing really well in casuals, but as soon as I play in any tournament with somewhat sizable stakes I freeze up and overthink everything. It sucks.

I'm getting so much better at 3rd strike recently it feels great to see progress. And at the same time I'm getting a clearer grasp of the skill gap between me and better players lol. Just something that happens as you put hours into anything I guess.

Combobreaker was insanely fun, played nervous on stream for #3rdStrike but made it to day 2 which I'm proud of! Finished 33rd/199 and still could have went further by fixing a couple mistakes.

I am so glad I went to the Jazzy AQ at Logan this past weekend for #3rdStrike. Went 2-2 to place 17th/40 and got to watch the homies do well. It inspired me to play ranked fightcade for the first time in months too.

Enjoying playing through #residentevil 1 (gamecube remaster on steam). Atmosphere is so good and the zombies are no joke. The save system is pretty brutal too, I have to sit down and make some serious progress in between saves and it's so scary when I'm about to die

Dropped into the mini at Lincoln yesterday and even though it's only six inches taller (ballpark) than the one at modern it's so much faster. Also one side is slightly taller than the other which was sketchy. I was able to do a short line of rock to fakie, tail stall, rock which I'm proud of tho.

Having lots of fun playing through the resident evil series, #re2 remake was dope and I put like 30 hours into it. Playing OG #re4 on controller for the experience and it's very different but also a blast.

Haven't #skateboard posted in a while but my axle stalls are coming together slowly but surely. I only land them about 15% of the time but when I do it feels smooth asf. Also casually landed a bunch of switch rocks today.

Went 1-2 in #3rdStrike at frosty, same as combo breaker from last year but my play was much more confident and solid. Overall did better IMO but lost cause I missed my sa1 link when I was hitting it all day :(

Went skating w friends yesterday at modern skate and surf and had a lot of fun. Practiced a bunch of lip tricks and almost feeble/axle stalled. One weird thing about indoor parks is the layer of dust making every surface really slick which I had to get used to (fell a few times cause of this)
