Fighting Games Weekly | Oct 13-19 | The World Ends Ryu

Holy fuck. When the news first broke I watched the archive and assumed he would be alright.

Now I know that I heard a man die. Damn. RIP.
 
Just found out minutes ago.

Mr Grimmz was one of the best Ryus in the country back during Super and picked up Oni during AE. He mainly plays KI now and got top 8 at his first EVO last year. Thoughts and prayers to his family.
It's been a bad year. I've known nearly a dozen people who lost someone this year and I personally lost someone within the last month. I'll say it again. Life is too short. Don't take things for granted. Cherish your loved ones everyday.
 
This is a huge shock to come back to. I was at Churning the Butter and briefly saw on Twitter someone passing out on TRB so I didn't get the whole story. I just got back home and saw the news and I can't believe it.

My heart goes out to the SuperArcade guys
 
Guys one of the commentators during Killer Instinct at Super Dojo Arcade ( levelup live) just had something happen to him (seizure, heart attack, not sure) please send him your best wishes. Shit just happened out of no where. Hope he's ok.

I was watching two dudes on stream with their backs to the camera being oblivious to all the commotion in the background. Not really sure if they were aware of what's going on or if they knew the severity of the situation. Fainting out of nowhere's never a good sign and not something that should be taken lightly but I'm glad whoever was on the mic tried to aid Pusha asap.
 
Damn he had two kids and a wife too? That's just sad ;_;. Some people in chat were saying some fucked up things but I guess that's to be expected on Twitch.

He seemed like a cool dude too when I always talked to him in chats on a couple streams I frequent and from his commentary :(
 
I don't know is the guy and I'm not in shock. It's terrible but the only thing I can do for him is email whoever at twitch has the power to take it down.

Anyone familiar with twitch? I'm thinking maybe just fishstix?

EDIT: tweeted at fishstix. Can't find his email
 
Out of respect for his family?!
Didn't see it so I don't how much of it(or what) showed up on the stream though.

RIP

It wasn't shown on stream, but mics were on and it sounded soooo sad on what was happening, maybe not removing the full stream, but at least the very end(which is about the last 5 mins when it happen on stream) I do fully support to removing at least the end of that archive.
 
I don't know if anyone will take me seriously in Smash now.

It's okay, they never did.

C-stick (nub) Smash impressions to come.

Edit: early impression, I like it. It's not perfect but it works fine for me. It actually makes Mac's angled f-smash much easier for me to do than the regular method. Just a flick across the nub ending by angling the way you want. The nub is very close to the buttons on the regular N3DS and the placement is great.

Edit Edit: just catching up on thread and twitter. Awful news. :(
 
I can't watch TRB due to the time zone, so I only just now heard about last night. So fucking sad, man. Really scary stuff.
 
It looks like Mastercup will get an international stream

@MarkMan23: Currently making plans to attend MASTERCUP 7 with @teamspooky! Japan, we're coming back again! TEKKEN fans, you won't wanna miss this!
 
My reaction to that KOF game right now is ok- because at least the UM games are hitting Steam, though I really want to see a release date soon. Getting a little nervous since 98UM is supposed to be next month.

Damn, that's terrible.
Curiosity got the better of me, and I went to check the archive: I agree that the last part should be taken down. Even without seeing anything, it is quite terrifying...

RIP. :/
