@SoapQueen1 QueenSwagginz sure is easily triggered, but that is some of the worst excuses not to go on a podcast, obviously he dont wanna prove that he is some kid using his mother's/dads credit card to fund a manchild.
Whats wrong with going on a podcast just to convey your point of view and/or argue for it? It is not a presidential election.

Are there any estimates on how much Queen Waggins has given DSP?
 
Guess Swaggy really will be whatever Phil wants him to be, if he makes online personas exclusively for him.
There is no level of cuckoldry as strong as the one in DSP paypigdom

And TXT's right, why provide proof of anything if idiots like him will believe a person's poorly-conceived lies everytime, no matter how badly he tries to change them up to fit the latest theme. Pretty sure someone with down's syndrome would notice by now that DSP isn't exactly the most consistent individual.

This month? Around $500. Total? Around $1000. He believes he's just below the 6th place all-time spot (currently held by infinite_55), which is somewhere around $1100, I think.

I'm not sure who's more sad. The pathetic manchild who begs for money, or the paypigs who believe him so strongly they pay him to be a negative cancer.

Three aggressive messages in and TXT makes a point. That entire comment string was embarrassing. Opening your request for an interview with "your little safe space", "you love attention", "your little stand up act" is pretty goddamn disingenuous.

True. Swagginz was correct that he couldn't convince TXT, or vice versa, but it could have just been a friendly chat. That possibility died as soon as TXT sent the first bullying message. Two exchanges in and he's already at cursing him out: "so don't give me this line of bullshit".

I don't dislike TXT, I'm not trying to attack him.

This stupid conversation will just drive both of them deeper into whatever opinions they already held, and it makes 'detractors' look like ignorant bullies.

Even his fundamentals are bad. For example:

You're fighting a Shoto (Ryu/Ken/Akuma, basically any characters with fireballs and an SRK so Sagat would technically count as a Shoto) and knock them down putting them in a situation where you have Oki.

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Glossary_of_fighting_games#Okizeme

The Shoto player can do wakeup SRK which has invincibility and will beat meaty attacks (Meaty's are timed attacked that interrupt your opponent's wakeup). Phil never respects the SRK and just goes for a meaty or he'll play it extra lame and just hang back and chuck fireballs on their wakeup which will get him very little damage if the Shoto was autistic enough not to block that.

I just had a thought: Phil doesn't adapt to this aspect and respect SRK's because he's still playing with an ST mindset when it comes to Street Fighter. In ST you could YOLO SRK moves because the move had very fast recovery and the damage you took wasn't too bad. The worst thing most opponent's could nail you with is a sweep or maybe a throw or super (if they had it).

Every subsequent Street Fighter game have made SRK's more and more unsafe with 5 going an extra step and making it so an SRK could lead to a Crush Counter which does even more damage.

This made me laugh:


"Modern fighting games are about learning a pattern and that's not what modern fighting games should be about!" Nigger, you mained Vega in ST! This character here:


Which is all about landing the wall dive and putting the opponent in a 50/50 guess situation.

Watch the rest of Mrhuth's video too.

Phil understands very little about the very games he plays, or game theory in general. This kind of strategy is straight from game theory. You want your opponent in a position where they have no correct choice. If you're either right or you're wrong 50% of the time, it literally doesn't matter what you do.

In non-game theory reasons strategy like this works, despite the meaninglessness of the decision you put your opponent to, your opponent is in the position of actually having to think about it anyway. When it turns out meaningless and there's no clearly good choice, it puts stress on them, which in turn increases the mistakes they make.

There are obviously more complicated situations that don't involve straight 50/50 odds, like in poker, where the game theoretical optimal choice is to bluff with a frequency that given the size of the bluff and the pot, the frequency correlates with the odds your opponent is calling that either option has equal EV. Again, you're giving them no "right" decision.

Obviously, if your opponent is less than skilled and has recognizable patterns (like Phil himself), you exploit those often by doing things that are "wrong" from an optimal strategy perspective (look up Nash equilibrium for what this means), but right from the perspective of beating that particular opponent.

However, if you don't know what the "right" move is, you don't know what the "wrong" move is or when the right time to make the wrong move is.

Phil lacks a basic comprehension of games. Obviously, you don't have to be a mathematical theorist specializing in games to have an intuitive grasp of this. A lot of 12 year olds who are good at games grasp this kind of stuff intuitively and have never even heard of game theory. But Phil lacks this on a fundamental level.

A bit :autistic: I suppose, but he's just really bad at games. It's not that he's necessarily clumsy or stupid, but he doesn't grasp these ideas and has no interest in learning from his mistakes.

It helps Phil that ST is a very simple but brutal game. One mistake, like getting thrown and not teching it, could lead to a game over because of the oncoming setup by the opponent. This is especially true for the grapplers and Honda. Tons of special moves and normals are safe on block in ST except if you play Cammy or Blanka. Nearly all of the supers (aside from Cammy, Blanka, Guile, and Ken) have supers that are absolutely safe on block and do great chip damage. Combos are simple but require good timing...Unless you pick Dee Jay who -surprise surprise- is another character Phil mains. Hmmmm. Not to mention that if Dee Jay stuns you that he can easily touch of death you. So two of the characters Phil mains have some big time fuckery that they can do.

And it's even more interesting when you note that Phil's big time rivals in ST (Alex Valle, John Choi and Tokido) have adapted to later Street Fighter games and have all done well in the tournament scene. Excluding Third Strike for Valle and Choi because they like their zoning and Parrying in Third Strike un-does a lot of their strategy.
