I am new to this thread, hi! What I wanna know is have we talked about how shit he is at persona games yet?
Click to expand...

He's shit at everything except fighting games. And even though hes passable at most fighting games, he spends most of his time blaming shit instead of focusing so he gets his shit kicked in 24/7.

What im trying to say is its common knowledge hes terrible at all video games.

Him playing USF2 again actually reminds me. Before this last series of consoles released, Phil typically played fighting games on an actual fighting stick instead of a controller. :optimistic::optimistic::optimistic: Once the stick actually releases for this Switch, any chance he improves at USF2? I do think it might help him win more matches. :optimistic::optimistic::optimistic:

Whatever his goal was for the KOCC it must have been a bust. I guess he expected if a video had 50,000 views on some nobody detractors channel he would get even more because he is a "super successful" Youtuber. Of course when he goes all in on the rebirth of KOGaming he will be confused nobody wants to support a channel they know he will pull the plug on at any time for any reason.

He was making a few hundred dollars on KOG1 a month, which he referred to as a "pittance". Then he goes and begs people for a dollar a month on Patreon. It's very weird.

meltdown after he got destroyed and a viewer called him out, I haven't caught too many streams post Leanna but he seems to be getting more aggressive and salty towards everything since she dumped him

Those post-Leanna streams of Tekken 6 were really bad. He couldn't stop calling people bitches, and you could tell something was fucking with his brain.

The problem I have with Phil's USF2 streams is this: Why is he playing a game he hates? He knows the online game is too laggy for him to enjoy. He spends literally 80% of the session raging about the lag, his opponents abusing the lag, the controller, or this port being broken. (The other 20% is when he wins, which makes his rage briefly dissipate for a moment).

If Phil really does understand SF2 at a pro competition level - and to be fair, he might - it must be crippling to drop frames and lose inputs. You'd write off the whole game. It wouldn't be worth playing. Squeezing out 15 minutes of good play from a 3.5 hour session just isn't worth your time.

So why does Phil subject himself - and more importantly his audience - to this?

Didn't the last 3 or 4 USF2 sessions teach him what a shitshow it is? Did he forget that it makes him spend most of the time raging? Did he not notice that it gives his detractors the juciest material and makes his chatroom a warzone? Why go back for more?

Because what Phil does only makes sense to Phil and a handful of diehard autists. Anyone with half a brain would stop playing not unless the views were just so amazing. But this is Phil so logic goes out the window.

My hypothesis is that Phil feels a right to play USF 2 because of his "former PRO fighting game player" background and thinks he can show off how amazing he is at even a garbage version of ST. But even then his skills at ST have all but atrophied and he won't admit to that.

This clown never played anything at top level. Except for the broken port of Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo: Gout Edition, which he "mastered" over a weekend because no one else but a handful of people bothered to do the same.

I hate to disagree but he did -in all fairness- win Evo East in 2006 and I think 2007. Those tournaments did have some high profile killers in ST. And he won legit.

He participated in tournaments for other fighting games but I doubt he ever made top 8 at any of them unless attendance was poor. In the FGC if you're not consistently making top 8 then you're not really seen as relevant. Not unless you Money Match notable people and win.

So, if we know Phil uses view bots, can we assume the average amount of annual, dedicated fans that show up to watch his streams number below 50? 50 if we're being generous. Most of his fans are kids. School starts soon. So his stream attendance will drop exponentially during the day now. Should be interesting to see what he does to combat that and the drop in revenue.
Click to expand...
I would push that number around 200, for the simple fact that Phil has been skewing his livestreams to line-up more with his UK and EU fans. Phil realizes that a lot of american teens/kids are not staying up til 12am to watch their dad play a 3-year-old video game meant for children. I do agree that with school starting soon(schools have already started the year in most southern states, while the schools up north don't begin until the last week of August or after Labor Day, Phil can expect a drastic drop in livestream views. Still, his e-begging will be at an all-time high at this point, because he has to buy viddya games.

It probably isn't all that laggy. He's just latching onto a meme excuse.

If he thinks he is so superior at fighting games then why doesn't he have a fantastic winning streak or W/L ratio? Because if he was so good it doesn't matter much who is opponent is, for sure on the Switch not all of them are EVO professionals. Instead he loses to randoms constantly, making input mistakes and shows generally poor tactics that are repetitive. And thats with high-tier characters such as Dee Jay against bottom tier Blankas.

Whatever skill he had in the mid-2000s, if any aside from the fluke of the century, is gone now, because he didn't train, he never progressed and he avoids playing competitively. He was somewhat better-than-average in a time where most of his fanbase wasn't even conceived. His EVO 2005 4th place finish was his 4 touchdown in a highschool match event.

Phil is becoming quite boring since Panda dumped his ass.
Why he's replaying old games anyway? He literally does the same mistakes again.
Watch TIHYDP Red Dead Redemption and TIHYDP Red Dead Redemption Redux back to back and see him making the same jokes, mistakes and comments. It's unreal.

I'd rather see him play new stuff. Metroid Prime 2 Echoes, anyone? That game would rape him so hard. The Dark World, The Boost Guardian and the Spider Guardian would tear him apart.

You are eating high in acid rotten blueberries at 5 in the morning.

What does this man child expect how his 35 year old stomach is gonna handle this fuckup?

I really thought it was all that good old-fashioned Italian sauce with too much bread on the side he senselessly indulges in that was fucking up his stomach - while also keeping him fat & disgusting as fuck.

I dont know but Im on the edge of my fucking seat, buttcheeks clenched tighter than a Jewish person's wallet, at the thrills and spills of Phil's exciting life.

It's an overall pattern of no discipline in any area of this man's life. There is a set schedule which he regularly shows up 30 minutes late for, the house is a pig sty outside of the few hours every 3 years he gives it a once over, his emotions rule what he says and buys, and we have all seen a daily record via Instagram of what he chooses to eat.
I don't even feel a life coach would be able to help Phil at this point. These are foundational parts of life which he skipped over along the way to being 35.
He's a little boy away from mommy and daddy's rules. Ice cream for breakfast, jumping on the bed, TV until 5 am.
