I used to be “the worst student” in English class when I was in high school.
I’ve never lived abroad, I’ve never studied overseas. While most of my classmates left Korea to go to universities in other countries, I decided to stay in Korea. The reason was simple, 'I didn't wanna use English anymore'.
Then I started Tekken, and I fell in love with both the game and the community. One day, my mentor CBM told me
“Korea is one of the strongest regions in the world, but there aren’t many people connecting Korean Tekken scene to the global scene. I think you can become the bridge between two.”
Making English content was totally okay. But English commentary during the live stream was a completely different challenge. I was terrified of being judged for my weird grammar, my pronunciation, and all the mistakes I would inevitably make.
But so many people encouraged me, helped me to improve, and believed in me when I didn’t fully believe in myself. I want to sincerely thank everyone who has supported me on this journey🙏
Some people might think, “It’s just one single commentary for a Master event." But for me, this felt like overcoming one of the scariest obstacles of my life.
More importantly, it felt like taking a step toward the dream that brought me into the FGC in the first place, to become a bridge between Korean Tekken and the global fighting game community.
I know I still have to practice and learn A LOT😅 But I want to keep sharing the stories of players from Korea and all around the world. So I’ll continue working hard to improve every day!!!
Thank you for believing in me🫶 I will work hard, and always try my best!
What to Do When the Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred Expansion Starts!
- Pick your character and build.
- Select Seasonal + your desired game mode (the Season starts 30 minutes after launch) or play non-seasonal
- Choose Normal or Hard difficulty.
- Open your character panel, go to the Wardrobe tab, and equip your pet.
- Open your character panel, go to the Mercenaries tab, visit the Den, and pick a mercenary (Subo for map hack or Raheir for survivability).
- Enlist a mercenary for reinforcement.
- Complete the Lord of Hatred campaign.
- Complete your class quest at level 15 or 25 (Necromancer). You can skip this if you’ve previously played the character and already completed it after the change.
- Complete your Season Journey and the new Capstone Dungeons to progress and earn big rewards.
- Adjust difficulty based on your drops.
- Do War Plans/open-world activities until around level 55 (honestly, just do whatever is fun and explore, not everything is figured out yet).
- From level 50+, complete all Strongholds on Normal difficulty until you reach level 70.
- At level 70, focus on acquiring/leveling your Glyphs (the best current method is to spam the Pit).
- Decide which endgame activities you want to engage with and get juiced!
- You can also just ignore all of this and just HAVE FUN!
Note: They removed Rapport a while ago, so make sure to grab your skill points and Paragon points from the Season Journey tab.
