Rating Soul Calibur’s Best Character’s Costumes: Yoshimitsu

Did you think I forgot? Soul Calibur is also home to one of the greatest fighting game characters of all time, and while he’s technically an entirely separate character (both literally as a person and in terms of moveset), he’s still one of the most stylish figures in the cast. How good are the costumes for his other 3D fighting game counterpart?

Rating Tekken’s Best Character’s Costumes: Yoshimitsu

Tekken is home to some of fighting games’ most interesting characters, and Yoshimitsu ranks highly amongst them for me. Yoshimitsu is one of the series’ most iconic characters despite largely being story-irrelevant, and he also has some of the games’ best (and weirdest) costumes. Let’s rate them.

Who should be in Street Fighter V Champion Edition Season V?

A couple of days ago, Capcom announced via its website Capcom Unity that Street Fighter V would get a new and final season of characters. Setting aside the awful conditions regarding its costume contest (c’mon, pay artists, Capcom. It’s not that difficult), let’s talk about potential suitors for a new DLC season. Who should make the cut?

A Plea to reinvigorate Rival Schools

It should be fairly obvious that I have a bit of an obsession with more “retro” fighting games, especially in the realm of Capcom. From the early days of playing Super Street Fighter II Turbo on SNES, old school fighting games have been part of my life- and Rival Schools: United by Fate is no exception. So, why is there no continuation of the series?

Netplay is a core component to the future of fighting games

Netplay has been the subject of debate in the fighting game community since the internet became public. Arcades used to be the primary communication between players, but in 2020, the internet reigns supreme. As the days of a global pandemic trod on, adjustments to public events have only become more illuminating in how the success of fighting games hinges upon its netcode- a test that many games currently fail.

Thoughts on the classic Capcom fighters resurgence

As COVID-19 still ravages the Western world, people are continuing to be responsible and stay inside. In a strange way, though, the quarantine has only shown just how far certain communities are uniting behind some classic titles- a trend that had begun before a global pandemic even started.

Janus Shatters the Uprising, Sleepy promises ice cream in intense 3-2 OT win

It was a similar tale as the match against the Dragons: the Justice were nowhere to be seen in the first half, and appeared a different team in the second. Unlike the match against the Dragons, the Justice would pave their way to an intense and resounding victory (with ice cream, courtesy of Sleepy).

Opening Statements: Washington Justice v Boston Uprising, Stage 2 Week 5

Another day, another match against a team that is fighting for any hope of having a chance at Stage 2 playoffs. Can the Justice muster enough of an effort to walk away with one win this stage?

DC Justice set alight by the Shanghai Dragons, lose 1-3 and risk a winless Stage 2

In the continuing story of The Tale of Two Halves, the Justice found themselves unable to dominate the second half to equalize the match and make it into Overtime after losing in almost record-setting speed in the first half.

Opening Statements: Shanghai Dragons v Washington Justice, Stage 2 Week 5

It’s their only meeting for the whole season and Geguri (one of my favorite players) probably even be a part of the match. How’s it gonna go?
