yeah I have

Top 3 bosses for me were first sinner, lost lace, and phantom. I can't wait to replay those

I don't think it's fair to compare the two yet since the DLC for Silksong isn't out yet but I just hope we get Pantheon of the Gods back (I want to replay the bosses), more hard bosses, and a really difficult platforming section like path of pain (cogwork was nice but doesn't compare)

9.5/10 so peak. My only complaint is the amount of gank fights. In HK gank fights were way less common and mainly confined to the Colosseum which was nice but in Silksong it feels like there's at least 2 gank fights per area.

there is no (feasible) solution

never consistently be on the level of top JP players with these small changes.

on top of watching top JP players' VOD's as well as our own. It's quite disingenuous to suggest that there's a solution us as the western scene can come to when the problem is clearly systemic. Sure, mixing player bases and playing more minor tourneys could improve the western scene but we will

I've read a lot of suggestions today about "actually trying to improve" etc. etc. Knowing how the top western teams function behind the scenes (us, PxG, SB) we DO want to win and we do play to improve. All of us dedicate a lot of time to playing both as a team and as individuals,

Minor regions and smaller player bases can only push each other so far. The Melee top players in Japan and Australia are obviously great, but there is a clear gap compared with top talent from NA.

Amsa and Joshman are two melee players who cracked the top 10 in Melee's global rankings at some point in time while hailing from two different minor regions (Japan and Australia respectively). So how did they do it? They moved to North America where the majority of the top talent lives.

longer with us but I hope he is in a happier place. I'll never forget all the memories I made with him, may he rest in peace.

I've known Gamer for almost the entire time I've played competitively. I'm beyond lucky to have spent so much time with him over the years. It truly felt like we grew up together from our time on Saikai. He was genuinely the funniest person I've ever met in my life. I'm deeply saddened that he's no

I was not tapped into the yogurt cone I don’t know the ikea meta

Why is shopping at IKEA a whole ass Elden ring side quest

I played so poorly in grands but my team had me today

We are so back

I really enjoy competing, especially with FTWin, so I hope my schedule going forward still lets me dedicate some time to it. After my summer and fall semesters last year I didn’t think I’d ever be able to compete again so it’s been really nice to be back again.

That’s why it felt nice to be able to perform this tournament on a “new” role (at least as of recently) even if it wasn’t enough to win. Yesterday was probably the best I’ve ever performed individually in tournament which was nice for a change since it usually feels like I’m being carried.

Although I’m disappointed we weren’t able to win I can’t be too upset given the circumstances.

I’ve always been paranoid that I’d be the reason my team gets held back due to my schedule (that’s why I stopped playing last summer).

Yeah it’s kinda similar but edit is way easier to use since the bullet velocity is less awkward

I tried

The Heavy Edit Splatling is quite overtuned at the moment. If I still played I would be playing the Heavy Edit Splatling. If you are capable of playing the Heavy Edit Splatling right now I would suggest looking into doing so.
