[Shirō Ishii]

2021 Street Fighter has been the year of Jaxx Raxxor. He has several $100 tips before Phil even plays a round. He also has a $1,000 tip under his paypig belt this year as well.

Thank you! I knew it was a Ja....something. I got Jakileez and Jaxx Raxxor mixed up. I just knew it was the guy who was saving up for a car but instead, gave all of his low-wage paychecks to Phil

 

[PhilsCamelToe]

Has anyone in his chat (without tipping or cheering/superchats) question Phil for his erection with ST? I know the obvious reason for it being his preference is it’s the only game he was “successful” for a short period of time but fucking hell, there are other fighters you could play. There’s no way he could defend ST as this perfect gem while fighters beyond it declined tremendously.

Oh what the fuck am I talking about, Phil thinks a game like Bugsnax deserves to win awards.

 

[LostMy1stAccount]

There’s no way he could defend ST as this perfect gem

This is exactly what he does.
In his opinion, ST is the perfect fighting game and all other games are "dumbed down kiddie games".

 

[Kosher Dill]

He teased both the denim vest while playing blue T. Hawk and the hat while playing Bison but no bites.

I'm waiting for shirtless while playing E. Honda.

 

[King DDT]

Phil answers us the question that's in everyone's mind: why is he so successful?

"It's a crowdfunded effort"
LITERALLY WHAT.
Hahaha, Pigger Counters are going nuts with the amount of Copium being detected.
He is super desperate to make people believe that all the tips coming in are from different people and aren't just socks of OIC.

I wholeheartedly share the belief that Street Fighter streams are boring as shit. This fucker really needs to play other fighting games and stop dedicating entire streams to the Street Fighter collection. He should be playing a different fighting game every week. I'd love to find this little bitch in Tekken and smack around but I doubt very much he'll ever go back to the game.

Isn't "Chris" a regular contributor? Whys he acting like he doesn't know how the hat scam goes? I know we say everyone and their mother is OIC, but I'm pretty damn sure this is an OIC sock. Now to see if he drops a huge tip...

If he admits that it's just 1-3 people completely supporting him, it makes other unique contributors less likely to tip/donate. If I knew my waiter's boss or another diner was gonna come in after me and basically pay for their bills single-handedly, I'm sure as fuck not gonna give them any more money.

Because he's incredibly insecure playing fighting games as a former "pro fighting game player". ST is his claim to fame.

He also has the exceptional tendency to waste tons of time in the practice mode of other fighters to "learn" a character, otherwise he'd just jump online and be destroyed immediately.

 

[RougeRed]

Last minute pay pig coming in?

Lol no that's me , just trying to remind him he didn't get to the hat goal.

You have a dent all the way through your head. Retarded post-merge pieces of shit. Get out.

and if he's gonna play any other fighting game, it has to guarantee $150 per stream, actual LTG vibes

his ego is his own worst enemy, talking about being successful but he has to beg for someone to pay his bills every day, that's if we take what he says as true and not a lie, and the other side of the coin is him pretending to be poor so he can manipulate his wheelchairs into paying his bills, so which one is it

 

[Fapcop]

What I mean is why doesn't he use the merchandise to decorate his stream room? One of the things I've noticed is that a lot of streamers use merchandise and collectables to decorate the area they stream (Nerdrotic, Camelot331, etc.)

Ok, Paladin Derich. You’re really fahking
stupid right now, alright? That question has already been answered, because it’s a grown up house, not a bachelor pad. Why don’t you think before you ask, ACK! ACK! ACK!

"...some giant guy who has millions of FUCKIN' views and shit..."
Catching nuggets of Phil's eternal jealousy of people more successful than him is one of the best parts of keeping up with him, like a pleasant cup of Joe

I’ll bet you the few times that Phil gets enough blood flowing for even a partial erection and has himself a fap, he fantasizes about the good ol’ days where he had “millions of views” and was “easily in the top 50 of gaming YouTubers”.

Phil seems to think that HE could have been that guy with “milllions of viewers and shit!” He could have been a contender instead of a joke!

If only Youtube and Machinima and trolls and Twitch and detractors had left him alone, it could have been him!

The thought that he accidentally stumbled into success by being at the right place at the right time doesn’t even occur to him.

Neither does the fact that he totally ruined that success all by himself.

 

[gaarashatan]

dang not getting 150 every stream? better threaten my viewers that im going to ask for 2k- 3k in one day. even though i never hit it anyways, that will be good.

well ofc, if he isnt getting 150 every stream he has to do a marathon for 2-3k otherwise hell lose his house and cant pay his bills. even though he never hit any of this marathon goals before. wonder what thats all about. oh well best not to think about it, thinking hurts my brain - phils fans

Not all of them.

I saw a comment on his chat that still makes me LOL when I think about it.

“PHIL IS THE MOST HEAVILY TAXED MAN EVER!”

Income tax in the US used to be 90% once you made past a certain amount.

It seems DSP is caught in a weird tax-timeloop of sorts, where his income tax is handled by the IRS in 1949.

Nothin’ he can do dood!

Well he is still behind in taxes IIRc. And that is his own fucking fault because he thought he would not fall under the business tax regulations despite the fact that he writes of a lot of stuff for his business. He left Connteticut because of taxes only to find out he still has to pay taxes just under another name

Good thing Phil has learned from his mistakes and out of an abundance of caution, now have a Tahx attorney, a tahx accountant and a tahx... guy!

The way Phil plays Hades is one more example of his lack of foresight, not that any one needed more examples.

Spoiler: Hades autism rant

He got deflect dash once and decided it was the best and that the game was unwinnable without it before he had tried any others. He got skellys extra revive and decided it was the best accessory before he had even unlocked any others. He uses skelly's accessory when there is little chance of even a drunk boomer like him dying which only reduces the power gain of his build.

In most of his decisions in Hades he chooses options which make his character "tankier," but you aren't meant to face tank in Hades. Some of these options are just one off heals or restoring his revives at great cost. These options are not always bad to take, but he often gives up boons which would hugely buff his damage in favor of a bit of recovery. I don't think I need to explain that the enemy dying faster means they have less time to possibly hurt you in return, but this doesn't appear to register for Phil.

When he does pick damage buffs, he often seems to pick based on two things. One is if he was already spamming the move (see his spear-throwing because he's scared to get closer and take damage) and the other is if it has a big number even if it's impractical or still technically a weaker option (see him choosing buffs like AOE dash special on fists instead of +5 base damage stacking on every consecutive normal attack, or not taking boons like expose or jolted.) Him refusing to change his play style of dashing and mashing (ironically something he bitched about in DB Fighterz) kills his damage as much as he kills himself by face tanking.

Insert obligatory: “Ahm probably one of tha best AHL ROUND GAMERS in the world”-clip here.

Ironically, I think Phil might find more of a niche (and a potentially profitable one) if he wasn’t straight up “The TIHYDP Guy” but just streamed as what he is: A pseudo-boomer who kinda sucks at every game.

(Of course it would massively help if he actually enjoyed games.)

Who the fuck would watch this? Well, streams are full of players much better than Phil (who play DA NEWEST GAHMES!) but you know what market isn’t really being served?

The “Sorta-Phil” market of people who grew up with video games, left them alone because they got busy with life and careers, and can never be as good as the 20 year olds.

There’s a lot of disposable income there, and I bet a lot of people around Phil’s age wouldn’t mind seeing “one of their own” not being particularly good at games, but playing them and having a fun/chill time nonetheless.

Granted, this would pretty much mean a personality transplant for Phil, but still: It could work!

 

[Cardef1121]

His brain has been stuck in that mode his whole life. Whatever he's accused of, he never did any such thing, and if he did, it was always under circumstances that render him blameless, because he's always blameless. He always has an out, that's why no one ever credits him for apologizing.

Fesses up to jacking off on stream, but has to try taking away from how bad it was.

Admits to berating people, but acts like it was always provoked.

Acknowledges losing at Street Fighter on an arcade cabinet, but says he was tired, as if that means it doesn't count.

He is completely unable to handle ever being wrong or the loser, ever, as if everything is gigantic to him, it's all as painful as can be, no matter how little sense it makes. That is an astonishing lack of strength.

What you said reminded me of this:

That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.

The only thing it's missing is a second verse for greed:

I need that money, I really do.
I need that money, for taxes back due.
With mortgage unpaid and utilities unkept;
I need that money for a visit to the vet.
I need that money more than water!
If only to give it to Walter...*


*I gave up at this point-- Walter is the CEO of Scopely...

Oh what the fuck am I talking about, Phil thinks a game like Bugsnax deserves to win awards.

He has expressed interest in playing the new KoF which should be fun if he actually commits to it. KoF is considered hard, but the usual excuses are really just surface level and something you learn with experience when you get muscle memory anyway (muh execution, muh hard khambos). The real reason KoF seems so hard to get into is because basic things like neutral play happen at a much quicker pace than in most other 2D fighters, you really have to be quick on your feet to be able to excel. Phil's sluggish boomer brain pickled with gin won't be able to keep up. Guilty Gear is similar, Strive really is much more beginner friendly compared to the other games in the series because the pace of the game was slowed down. But to go back to KoF, in the most recent trailer they've announced that KoFXV is gonna have rollback netcode and Phil said it's bad because the game can "take away your win" in rollback netcode. It says a lot about him when he bitches about rollback netcode's ability to take away an illegitimate win.

I dunno, sex and the dumb bitch stays quiet. That sounds less like a fetish and more like a good time.

For some lads this holds some truth I guess, but personally I prefer my birds to be a bit more lively (especially when they're nearing climax). This setup had some advantages, yes, but all in all it was a really wierd experience.

Question: Did you go all the way and put the toetag on?

I met a guy once who had a fetish for women that laid completely still like corpses.

(He was very insistent on NOT being a necrophiliac, and rightfully called them sickfucks. But not in the “thou protesth too much” way, so who tf knows?)

Talk about a couple that’d be perfect for each other!

Phil will leave that dangling until someone pesters him enough that he outright memory-holes it, or he pulls out one of his bullshit excuses. We all saw what happened with VF5 after the dullard couldn’t cheese a win, and GranBlue is still very fresh in his pickled brain. Even if he does go through with it, don’t expect it to last long.
