Granblue Roadmap and Shaheen Joins Tekken 8

First we cover Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising Fan Fest news, including tournament announcements, battle pass content, DLC roadmap, and trailers featuring Lucilius and 2B from NieR: Automata. Tekken 8’s Shaheen and Yoshimitsu trailers are discussed, focusing on character redesigns and interactions. The cracked Tekken 8 Demo prompts thoughts on the matter, and Street Fighter 6 DLC controversies are explored, particularly the perceived value of avatar content. The term “neutral skip” sparks a discussion on the evolution of footsies in fighting games, considering the dominance of rushdown and its impact. A Guilty Gear Strive mod bringing Cyberpunk Edgerunners’ Rebecca as Elphelt Valentine is also reviewed.

Video gaming runs in his blood and competition plagues his mind. From the earliest days in the now extinct arcades, to the eSports competitive scene, he looks forward to the next game to test his skills. No stranger to rising salt levels.

I've been playing video games for a while now. I enjoy racing games, RPGs, but spend most of my time with fighting games. My first goal was to get better than my brothers, but now I strive to be better than most while also teaching others.
