If you don't look at your open palm for a few seconds and then clench it with a smirk did you even get one step closer to your ambitions today?

When I think of the nature of celebrity and the kind of popularity that I used to strive for I grow to dread ever getting to that level, where my every action is scrutinised. But things don't get better in silence and doing nothing, and I gotta put myself out in some way, I've become very quiet...

There was a part of me that really thought I had the minerals to get to God Of Destruction in Tekken 8 S2 before Season 3 but the ranked climb... is a lot... ment this is as far as I could go. Furtherest I've been and thought might as well have something to show for the effort! For now... a break.

Tomorrow's stream is cancelled. I need to visit grandma. Had a message from her friend (and 1st emergency contact) saying she's not doing well at all. If you want to help offset travel costs (because I have to rely on public transport), please drop something in my kofi pot - ko-fi.com/maxfirestorm

big bill shakes is goated. sorry but i will never entertain the argument that he’s overrated. to write something like this and have it ring with such tremendous clarity four centuries later would be incredible if he pulled it off once but he did it dozens of times

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

#combotober And with that, Combotober 2025 comes to a close. Was a heck of a journey and I've loved labbing and going through all these games, and remembering why they rock. Thanks to @abadidea.bsky.social for hosting the event, and all those who contributed! Let's get ready for the next battle!

#combotober Day 31! Free Space 3! Power Stone! There was one other game I was hoping to showcase that held meaning to me, but I can't deny Power Stone means a lot to me too. Something simple but awesome to confirm into super to close this month out!

#combotober Day 30! Combo That Spends The Most Meter! Blazblue Chronophantasma! 100% meter to 0, activate Overdrive, back to 100% and then burn it all again. That's Terumi for ya~!

#combotober Day 29! Combo that starts from across the screen! Marvel Vs Capcom Infinite! This game is an enigma that baffles me to this day but the more I play the more I'm intrigued to work it out to cook. And that's with the base game, who knows how deep I'd go if I ever went... Beyond.

#combotober Day 28! Highest Vertical Distance Traveled! Blazblue Central Fiction! Had to give Ragna some love this month. Practical? Not in the slightest. Vertical? Very.

#combotober Day 27! No touching opponent! I chose BB Cross Tag Battle! ...Personas don't count as touching right? I mean Adachi's just swirling his gun and enjoying himself he's not touching anyone! And Nu certainly isn't either!

#combotober Day 26! Combo that involves a wall! SF3: Third Strike! Turns out you can't turn music off separately on Online Edition But had fun relearning this combo I figured from yesteryear!

#combotober Day 25! Non Fighting Game! I went for DMC 5! Very rusty but went for more practicality, so went with a certified way to deal with Fury!

#combotober Day 24! Combo of two hits! Soulcalibur 2! I'll be very interested to see other folks entries today, two hits isn't a lot for sauce, but had to get some SC2 since I've been playing it lately.

#combotober Day 23! Touch of Death! DBFZ! There's a whole bunch of ways to do TOD's in this game but I'm glad I took time and labbed till I found my own way to do it. Also no idea why the video quality nosedived, PS capture for most others didn't have this problem...

#combotober Day 22! Combo that uses a taunt! I picked Tekken 7! Fun fact, a lot of these I use who I was GOING to use as a training dummy. Bryan was a logical choice until I remember this launch has juuuuust enough leeway to get a patented Miguel Woo Hoo.

#combotober Day 21! Free Space! Garou: Mark of the Wolves! I feel this is redemption for being cheeky with SNK day, took a while for this game to click with, it's haaaaard.

#combotober Day 20! Combo that starts with a throw! Went with Persona 4 Arena Ultimax! This feels like it's like a frame away from extending into sauce but this was the most practical application I could find. My biggest takeaway is developing a craving to finish Persona 4 on PS2.

#combotober Day 19! Repeated move! I chose Smash Ultimate! Only works on this stage and only works on heavy characters like Fox but a TOD from grab with 8 As is a TOD from grab with 8 As.

#combotober Day 18! Favourite Guest Character! Big big big prompt but Spawn is defo top 5

#combotober Day 17! Tag game! I picked Battle for the Grid! Favourite is such a big question but absolutely had to get Battle for the Grid in here.

#combotober Day 16! Indie Fighter! Them's Fightin' Herds! Recorded a combo, realised didn't need the lights to get the relaunch, accidentally recorded mic and call audio, edited it out, uploaded the wrong file... I am very pleased I cooked but man did it take a journey to get here...

#combotober Day 15! Other Publisher! I chose Melty Blood Type Lumina! There's still a lot to wrap my head around in this game but I think this is cooking?

#combotober Day 14! Other Favourite Arc System Works game! I picked Guilty Gear XRD Rev 2! Struggled today, really tried to do something spicy but I kept running into a wall to make the combo more me. Settled on just a dust into excitement. Coulda burned another 50% but that'd only be 30+

#combotober Day 13! Favourite other SNK game! ...What do you mean this isn't an SNK game, its got SNK in the name and Kyo is right there... ...Might do Garou as penance later down the line.

#combotober Day 11! Other Capcom game! I picked Street Fighter 5! Favourite Capcom game is a big question to answer, but I'm comfy saying Birdie is one of my fav characters to play. IF NO ONE GOT HIS BACK I GOT HIS BACK! IT'S ALL COMING UP BIRDIE!

#combotober Day 11! Free space 1! Since its relative recent rerelease and my realising it's neat, I picked Plasma Sword! Hayato was always super neat in the Vs Capcom games and I never found out where he came from until Fighting Collection 2, and turns out where he came from is rad!

#Combotober Day 10! Virtua Fighter! Nother game I felt myself getting sucked back into, but sadly not enough time this month. I hope no one can waggle fast enough to get out...

#combotober Day 9! Dead or Alive! This combo cost me £8.24. ...could one claim these combos as a work expense?

#combotober Day 8! Soul Calibur! shame to keep going through all these, I wanna stick around more for all these games I never got to get proper stuck in way back. But yes, I love so much of the cast of SC, but Cervantes always comes out on top for preference and sheer sauce I feel capable of.

#combotober Day 7! Under Night Inbirth! This combo cost me £8.74.

#Combotober Day 6! Mortal Kombat! One perk of going through all these games at this pace is rediscovering how fun they all were/are! Wanted to take a break from all meter all the time and tried a saucy no meter/corner.

#combotober Day 5! Marvel Vs Capcom! ...Okay I am now officially showboating but I felt inspired to do a combo for each member of the team. I don't think I'll be doing this for many more if any games but hey it's mahvel. Also very sad that first combo didn't have one more hit.

#combotober Day 4! Guilty Gear! This is one of the combos that just came in a flow, one of those where I'm like "How the heck did a I do that?!" Also I know you can just RC into Heavenly Buster but this does five more damage and sends a message.

#combotober Day 3! Tekken! Certain combo artists make these look easier on the tube to get all the breaks and the stupid damage... Try as I might I just couldn't get to that final wall. Still pleased I crossed that 100 damage mark.
