Did Phil just insinuate that other long time FGC guys have nothing else going on in their lives? While also admitting he didn't have a significant other back in the day? Phil, and I know you're reading this, because it's obvious you saw me post the EVO Champion wall. Anyway, Max Dood is married with a daughter in a house he owns, Justin Wong is married with a daughter in a house he owns, Fuudo is married to a model. Tokido, the guy you love to bring up, went to a prestigious prep-school for high-school, he holds a BS in Chemical Engineering from Tokyo University, one of the best schools in Japan. Don't fucking think for a second any of these guys are just doing FGC/Street Fighter shit and that's all they do. They stayed on top of the game while having a life and succeeding.
Phil by his own admission poured every bit of energy in being a pro fighting game player and for all his effort his crowning achievement is 4th place at a boycotted tournament, he did all this just to be slightly above average at fighting games for the time. Whereas all the people he's jealous of managed to be at the top of their game while keeping up with their education, social life and career and even though their skills may have degraded over time they are still better than phil ever was.

That must be like a bullet to his ego.
 
Try to imagine if Phil had a child and career day at school rolls around.

Now imagine being that child trying to explain your dad plays fishing simulators and blows bubbles for donations. It's as bad as an onlyfans mom in my opinion.

Thank God he doesn't have children.
He'd only show if the school paid him $800 for missing out on valuable streaming time.

I think what hurts him more, is that even people who never won a single tournament have more prestiege than he does. Even Mike "Forever Fourth" Ross gets more respect than Phil ever did, despite his highest placement also being fourth. The difference is Phi wanted to be a bad guy, and one thing you never think of is "What happens to bad guys when they age out?" He didn't build himself as a coach who can mentor, he didn't build himself as a technician who can make informative videos, he didn't build himself as a top player that other people study; he was at best, a mid-tier gatekeeper/bully. So what happens to the badguy? He gets targeted and either ran out or eventually leaves because he didn't build himself as anything good or useful. Meanwhile, yesterday at the Gran Blue Versus Top 8; Long Island Joe (known for Street Fighter) was the host for a special announcement and introduced the Top 8 before handing it off to the commentators; and during that announcement, Mike Ross is the Ambassador for their world tournament. Two Street Fighter guys, carrying water for an Anime fighter, because they built themselves up (pretty sure they also have girlfriends, if Joe isn't just crushing puss on the regular). But they get a stage, thousands of viewers worldwide, and recognition... Phil gets a few whales and cries to them for money. That's what's hurting him.

Edit: Another thing this leads into is his "I'm not a techie, I'm a gamer" shit. He's old enough to know who/what MAS Systems was and how fucking good their sticks were. Even with them gone, you'll have guys do custom stick work, wiring, repairs, etc. You know how he likes to claim he did custom arcade sticks, bullshit, others did, he didn't, but the others were also able to make a business out of it (without breaking copyright laws and shit). Also, streamers; Arturo/Sp00ky and Armando (Wednesday Night Fights) were able to get jobs with a company in the Phillipines because they were experienced stream runners. Everyone's favorite horntoad Honzo Gonzo is a stream master for EVO and other events, so much that in 2015 or whenever it was when Street Fighter was broadcast on ESPN, he was overseeing shit in the broadcast truck. Dude's a weirdo FGC character for sure, but he also has actual fucking TV work because he does "tech" shit.

What should really be eating at Phil, is how there were two legitimate paths for him to have a future that's not begging... and he missed both of them.

Has this retard ever been on a fishing trip? I've never had some fat dude with a patchy goutee beg me for tips when I go fishing.

A real fishing trip with DSP is a lone man sitting in a canoe for 8 hours as fish get progressively further away because the snorts echoing across the lake acts like people tapping the aquarium glass

Phil is too dainty to go.
The trip he cited was probably in a pond prefilled. Where the fish are starved so its piss easy to catch them.
 
watch how quickly his tune will change like the little spineless weasel pig roach he is if someone happens to link a clip of this rant of him claiming to know better than the people who are for Rollback (max, sjam, roolfmonger, wong, yipes, damascus etc) or the one of him calling the people who pushed or support GGPO "fucking idiots" the next time max, sajam, crofts, wong etc tweet about how hyped they are rollback is becoming a FG staple.

The sirs will fly
Imagine if someone told Nick Cannon about the slander DSP unleashed against him in Phil's latest talk therapy session. DICEY DICEEEEEEEEEEEEY

Wrong Cannon, the Cannon Brothers are Tom and Tony Cannon; who still go to EVO. I saw both of them, even talked to Tony a bit. They also try to keep good, it's an event, no need to start shit, and even if someone did, they'd probably be cool about it.

Damn, I had a DSP moment there. Was just reading the Nick Fuentes subforum before I read this thread so when I made my post I mashed Nick Fuentes and Tony Cannon together.
