Under Night Has No Friction
"Friction" consists of the difficulties and decisions that characters and players must first deal with in order to put themselves in a winning position.

This is the quality of feedback that outstanding devs like French Bread deserve. I don't have to agree with 100% of it to recognize the sincere level of care and (frankly) tact that feels so refreshing in the politics of our game's player base and development cycle.
Bar: set.

Overall, CB was another amazing weekend as always. Had a ton of fun playing casuals and I'm even hungrier to see what happens when more things go my way. Will be staying on the grind for EVO and then see what happens with the patch. Hoping to see everyone again there!
You start fixing your mechanics.
Suddenly you're:
– losing more fights
– feeling slower
– overthinking everything
...so you assume you're getting worse
You're not.
You're in the "instability phase" of growth
A thread on burn out and the "improvement crisis"🧵
Unfortunately my run ends at 17th to Silent. I had the set game 3, and dropped the combo to close it out. My nerves made me physically miss the button, but I'm not mad. To play on that level to beat someone like Silent is a win, and I'll just have to be more clutch going forward
Today felt like a totally new day. Made top 24 only dropping 1 game! Kept my composure really well and stuck to the gameplan. Glad I'm performing on game day. 3 more sets...

Lost my set to make it out winners. Ibbit played well but he missed a ton of counterplay and I'm still not sure what I could have done. So sick of that matchup, just going back to Wagner for it from now on. Gonna do my best the rest of the event, but I'm definitely tilted
