Smash Ultimate First Stock and Revenge Killing

I’ve been watching a ton of smash footage as Ultimate develops through these early tournaments and I’ve noticed a really pronounced pattern within the early game of Smash Ultimate that I feel has a really strong fundamental influence on how the game is played or maybe how it should be. What I’ve often observed happening […]

Pokemon VGC 2018 Team Archive

Foreword VGC18 has to definitely be my favorite doubles format so far. I’ve played it on and off since about 2015, but I was never really into the team building process for lack of understanding. However, the options in VGC18 were so interesting I decided to really buckle down and learn the ins and outs […]

Smash Bros. Ultimate: A New Revival

Everyone is talking about it. Early this December after tons of mixed reception Smash Ultimate dropped and ever since everyone has been in twisting and turning torrent of opinion, analysis, and high hopes. Though I know there is some negativity I think the general consensus is everyone (including myself) is happy to have another Smash […]

I personally was very skeptical at first about the entire thing being a long time fan, but upon spending time with […]

Yu-Gi-Oh and The Idea of Control

I just recently got back into Yu-Gi-OH on the word of one of my friends who works at the local card shop. He was telling me a little bit about the terrain of the current game and recommended me some archtypes. Thinking in History Now the thing is Yu-Gi-Oh is in fact probably the game […]

Pokemon VGC 2018: The Great But Forgotten Pumpkin

So I was chillin with the homeys in Discord not too long after doing the team building for Dunsparce and we started joking about making other obscure Pokemon teams and laughing at the different sub optimal options that some of the really unfortunate Pokemon have (Delibird, Farfetch’d, Corsola) and even though we all love these […]

Pokemon: VGC 2018 Building On Nostalgia

So when I was a kid I had Pokemon: Silver version and In between Goldenrod city and Ecruteak city there’s a path that’s blocked by a Sudowoodo and at the time I had no idea what is was. So I was stuck in the first quarter of the game for what felt like forever and […]
