Chicago’s 3S Makoto // he/him/his // FGC camera guy // arcade enthusiast // Logan Arcade regular // I also TO sometimes fgcfilm.org
Every time I see the "Big Esports" side of the FGC capping for horrible stuff I just can't help but notice that I'm seeing the exact same play from the exact same playbook every single time.
Another Jazzy Finale in the books for me. Love this game, love these people, and I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world. See y'all next year.
...okay fine one more because I gotta give ups to the man who taught me 3S. Dirtmaster AKA Toadstyle AKA Adam. Legend in every single sense of the word. Taught me everything I know about 3S and taught me a lot about life along the way.
Honestly WAY too many to list but if you forced me to name names, gotta be the brothers Jose (MrPart2) and Robert (SilentImpact). Chicago 3S and Logan Arcade wouldn't be the place it is now without both their combined efforts. Jazzy Circuit and 3S in general are SO lucky to have them.
I had no idea what the reaction from chat was going to be when I hopped on comms for one last time at Ignition last night, but I honestly can't ask for anything better than this.
I made a million of these things when I was a chronically online Tumblr user back in 2017 and you bet your ASS I'm recreating all my favorite ones
One of the funniest things about last night's broadcast is in the post-game stuff they just, completely unprompted, put this still image of Spike Lee looking really happy and idk why but it got funnier the longer I looked at it.
Clearing out my old tiktoks and I'm pissed this one didn't get more traction. Then again fgc tiktok was weird and wack af for the most part.
Happy to announce that I am going to be on comms for 3S at DIY this weekend!
All my CB photos will drop at the end of the month with a special write up on the website. As one last preview, here's my favorite picture I took that weekend 😍.
Got the scans for my Combo Breaker rolls from the lab this morning. I think I'm just gonna save a whole roll for VSAV Top 8 from now on because all the best pictures were from there.
Got my medal for winning 3S at Tribe Rush in Galway back in February! Brought back a lot of great memories of that trip to Ireland and has me absolutely craving a proper spice bag.
