honestly the blaming the game thing is DSPs most annoying character flaw. Its every fucking game, every single time
Phil has been a curated content creator for 17 years, you'd think everyone realize he knows what he's doing.

Nice it's a someone shows up saying DSP isn't THAT bad at SF6 episode again.
Phil is at least top 5% in SF6. I agree he is abysmal for someone with his extensive history in fighting games, and it's largely because he's lazy and too stubborn to learn. But, he's still good at the game. The bar is low here, Phil is the pits at basically every other game.

Real problem is, SF6 has a shitty ranking system, SF6 rewards you for losing and winning, its hard to derank in SF6, you can get to master with a 40 something percent winrate, and to stack that pile of shit onto that, there's even more dumb master ranks, just re-work your whole system, i'm not going to even speak on the retro collection he plays, just play fightcade coward.

Imagine if Phil continued to play Tekken 8, he would've been raging double or triple the time he rages at street fighter, he would get constantly de-ranked, and tekken makes sure to put in big words you were demoted or about to be demoted.

He's lucky he has it easy in SF6 garbage ranking system.

IIRC, SF6's "real" ranking system doesn't actually kick in until you get into master and get a real Elo score. Phil always bailed once he brute forced a character to master on every platform. And his Elo was mediocre to just plain bad when he did play characters there.
 
lmao this was a hilarious crash out. He openly takes $120 off the total just to spite a sus ICS.
You know he certainly wasn't going to return it.
It sounds to me like it was someone that was gonna donate a shit ton than charge it all back out of spite and pettiness
And now they well should.
"We have now unlocked the ability to do this" Jesus christ Phil your streams are not some sort of video game where the main objective is to donate to you to win
They're not?
 
Is it me or has DSP been looking more miserable than usual, playing video games? I feel we are close to a big meltdown where he will get super angry and implode.

Its pointless to compare dsp to literally the entire playerbase though because 90% people who've played the game probably booted it up for a weekend and then never touched it again. I would hope Phil is better than all those kinds of players. If it was limited to just players who put at least 100 hours into the game, phil is easily in the middle of the pack.

He always looks like the Squidward frown when he's in gamer mode.

He would drown early in pools if he ever tried his hand at EVO. He brute forced his way into his rank, which doesn't mean much in most games these days, and any time he struggled he jumped ship to another console version like a coward. Hell, if my memory serves me right, PoP wasn't a fighting game player and he learned the game only to smoke Phil multiple times. I would put Phil somewhere in the top 25%~30% because any time he's met with something different he folds like a bitch.
 
Yes, Phil would get destroyed competitively, especially against more skilled opponents who can prepare for him at all. Phil knows it too, that's why he refuses to play IRL and ducks out of Master rank matches before long because ouchies to his ego, need CHILL 99.9% Champions win rate.

I wish but i don't see it, he's more and more prolonging game play molding the dents to support early and without game play and it's working and i think it's obvious thats what DSP really wants in the end. He's gonna eventually sit there and just yap and the larpers and dents r just eating it up and doing as told.
 
We had some huge rants tonight I'm gonna have to go back and watch them but he went off on Panda a bit saying he was a prisoner in his own house and they were never in a good relationship. A lot of retcons of stuff as well including more KC stuff and now he doesn't care if detractors restream him or steal his kahntent anymore.

Truck sim keeps on delivering the goods it seems.
 
New Phil retcon tonight. During the Casino arc PPP offered to fly Phil out to him so they could go to Hulk Hogan's bar, hang out, etc. According to the DM leaks he said he couldn't do this because he didn't have a Real ID. He claimed tonight that he didn't go because it was "scary" that PPP even offered and that it was "inappropriate for someone who is happily married" like him.

You know you're the happiest you've ever been when you're drinking and ranting about your ex-girlfriend alone in your spare bedroom.

Not gonna happen buddy because DSP is not depressed and is living his ideal life right now. I know this because of his body language and because DSP told us he's happy and DSP never lies to us.
 
Nice it's a someone shows up saying DSP isn't THAT bad at SF6 episode again.

Diamond ranking in Starcraft IS dogshit being compared to a few ranks ahead of people who don't know what a build order is, what hotkeys do or when to do an expansion. Playerbases aren't built equal and SF6 has one of the lowest skill ones that a fighting game has ever had. Even in fucking Starcraft you could hit plat/diamond with zero micro and just doing basic macro and moving your units in a group because the bottom 50-70% of players were legit seriously actually retarded.

SF6 ranking is total babymode up until actual Legend grinding and by far one of the easiest to get to "Master" anyone in this thread who can do a basic punish combo and inputs for moves willing to grind for a week or 2 can hit it hell DSP can't even consistently do the inputs for moves in any fighting game so you don't need to do that.

DSP having 20 years fighting game experience and being effectively hardstuck at the lowest possible level master means he is total fucking dogshit among players who know the game past the very basics.
This. You can get to master in SF6 with just a characters BnBs. Phil has no offense/defense on wakeup, no match up knowledge, no option selects, no footsies, no mix ups outside of drive rush throw/strike. He even thinks the game has a priority system lol. You can get to Phils level in 6 months. He's also the literal definiton of a pattern player. Only reason why he appears good at fighting games is due to their initial learning curve. Learning fighting games is like learning an instrument. Phil is the equivelent of someone on youtube badly covering a song. Sure he can play, but he has no creativity and no understanding of music theory

Plus he always calls certain characters top tier. But more often then not said "top tiers" don't end up in the winning position. This year's EVO was won by a Blanka player who smoked his Cammy opponent TWICE in the TOP 16 rounds. But Phil could never copy that playing style. And never forget, RawPhil and his buddy tear Phil to pieces.

I mean I can agree that SF 6 is probably the easiest to get into SF game. It has a new control scheme to ease getting into it. It has a pure RPG game you can use to learn. It has many training modes. Which imho is good because it brings in more players (and of course from Capcom's perspective, it means more sales) And the good players will still be at the top but maybe new talent will rise. I personally only mnanaged to get to Gold but even I can beat Platinum and diamond players on a good day.

Also Phil has put Suikoden 2 on the schedule. Hooo boy this is going to be fun. Is he now throwing everything at the wall in hopes it sticks?
