doing fun inhouse 2XKO casual 2v2s with @dacidbro.bsky.social and this sequence went a little silly

no longer hating 2XKO Darius now hating Yasuo and Warwick are my new best friends👍

Even with being a teacher full time (and taking night classes to study to become a teacher) I still find the time to be okay at 2XKO🙂 Also got a 2nd place finish last night in a duo only tournament with someone I met the same night so that's cool too. Feels good to compete in a game I love so much

I had a fun time doing 2XKO stuff this weekend! Went to Iron Grid for the first time yesterday and got 5th with a spontaneous duo (i'll post pictures of the event later) and then played an online weekly bracket called clover clash with @dacidbro.bsky.social and we got 3rd! I'm posting 2 funny clips:

Sabrina Carpenter if she was in Super Mario Sunshine: "I'm working late, 'cause I'm a chuckster!"

How I'm going to bed tonight.

im sad im out of state while this scavenger hunt happens but I also hope all my NY homies are having fun 🫡

I love this photo taken of me at the 2XKO Chipotle cabinets even if I look silly locking in with my tongue out 😭 This was the bracket I was getting that 1st place prize :^)

Team Cherry told me that Hollow Knight has sold 15 million copies, making it one of the biggest indie games of all time. What's really wild is that in February 2019, when Silksong was announced, Hollow Knight had only sold 2.8 million copies. The full story: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

i mean silksong in 2 weeks is nice (i guess...) but NO tales of the abyss related news? what was team cherry thinking?!?!

tales of the abyss heads know to be on the lookout for the silksong special announcement stream👀

With 2XKO, Riot and @unconkable.bsky.social are trying to make fighting games more fun to play with friends... AKA not just beating up pals who don't play. 🥊💥😵‍💫 But can they do it? Check out our latest article as we find out why so many tag fighters are taking the spotlight now. ⬇️ Link below!

I went to EVO and then got a chance to write for @teamliquid.com about the upcoming tag fighter resurgence in the FGC. S/O to @strawberryeclair.bsky.social and @unconkable.bsky.social for talking with me! Also thanks to @austinrryan.bsky.social for the opportunity!! teamliquid.com/news/why-so-...

This Kirby Air Riders direct so far

holy hell it's good hearing the classic kirby air rider music again

it was always fun when people complimented my past guides at Dot Esports/more recently people thanking me for my Balatro tips at IGN. It would've been nice to be able to keep writing guides if the field was more stable! but I guess I keep the spirit of the job as I career shift into being a teacher

I've tried to delete the phrase "this isn't for everyone" from my brain as a way of describing a piece of art because: 1) Yeah, no shit And 2) It sounds like you're self-conscious about expressing your feelings about it, and undermines the conviction of those feelings

Me beating nature's ass with nurture rn

I might be okay at this thing called 2XKO (I'll commit to posting an EVO/CB 2025 photo dump & retrospective later. but tl;dr this weekend was magical as hell and I'm happy I got to see so many friends and make wonderful new ones!)

WON THE LAST 2XKO CHALLENGERS EXHIBITION WITH @realprismsword.bsky.social WE JUST CANT LOSE THIS WEEKEND

I also got an extra Illaoi pin at EVO 2025 if someone wants to trade vi

Does anyone at EVO 2025 have the ms marvel tokon pin and want to trade for iron man?

it is 2008. the economy is in a recession. john choi and BAS are playing in evo cvs2 grand finals it is 2025. the economy is in a recession. john choi and BAS are playing in evo cvs2 grand finals

His smile, his optimism: restored. I got the first place prize for a 2XKO Chipotle bracket thing🫡

That's wild that they have peak from combo breaker at evo

EVO bound 🫡

Here's the Top 8 for my most recent tournament! First one I competed in a while and I barely missed making my own top 8 smh my head. All jokes aside it feels good to see people still love this game and compete hard. Shoutouts to everyone who participated and watched!

My next LoR tournament is TOMORROW! This one returns to the usual Double Elim format and has grassroots worlds points up for grabs!

A little late to push this graphic out since I've been so busy this past week but now is as good a time as any to get it out because TOMORROW is my next tournament! I'll post the announcement graphic for the back to back week of PCS very soon so look out for that.

Last night's TNS was fun! First time on stream for the online bracket, then I almost made it to grand finals in the biggest redemption bracket of the year after making a long run through losers. There's a bunch of things I've been improving steadily too which feels really nice. Long live Marvel ❤️🫡

god i love marvel 3 so much

Cc @scrubquotes.bsky.social

I think it's fair when people call her a safe pick: but I'm sooooo glad that she looks and plays so sick. It would've been sad if she looked bland visual and gameplay wise, cant wait to try her at EVO and the closed beta 🫡

WE GOT BIONIC ARM IN 2XKO

TODAY is another one of my Legends of Runeterra tournaments that's also a collab with Aegis' Grassroots worlds! Don't mind the drawn over pcs 15 graphic, im on da phone right now! There's also going to be another more traditional PCS happening at the end of the month, I hope to see you at both!

Who is Ashley Big Brother? For the blind, she is light. For the hungry, she is bread. For the dirty, she is a shower. For the sick, she is the cure. For the sad, she is joy. For the poor, she is the treasure. If Ashley has no fans it means I am no longer on this earth. #bb27

me to myself after saying we will all perish if we dont get tales of the abyss stuff

on everybody's soul we're getting some form of tales of the abyss announcement within the next year

Unsurprisingly, Cuomo doesn't understand the concept of people telling him no

all of nyc waking up today like

had a good dream last night that I voted for zohran mamdani and he stomped cuomo. I think this dream means I gotta vote today to make sure zohran mamdani wins today

Hope and solidarity won tonight, and will win again in November. Congratulations, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

Zohran Mamdani was the first mayoral candidate to swiftly condemn the arrest and disappearance of Mahmoud Khalil as a violation of his First Amendment right to advocate for Palestinian freedom.

hot boy who cant take good selfies canvassed and voted for zohran mamdani (i only qualify as a hot boy because it was 95+ degrees to vote today)

PCS 15 is over! Thanks to @sojournerkai.bsky.social for co-casting with me and @naleiaa.bsky.social & @lawalor.bsky.social for raiding my stream during the broadcast. Also thanks to everyone who played/watched/spread the word!

ive always been this ride or die for zohran mamdani
