A real fun night of Street Fighter 6

Hi everyone,

Well Saturday was kind of weird to some degree, as we got the laundry done good and early, did some writing and because I took a nap... and didn't felt like dealing with dinner, so I order some Chinese food for the first time in years. It was quite delicious!

The stream itself of Street Fighter saw a big focus on three objectives, the first being to get to 100 matches played in Fight Ground mode, which was a mixed of ranked and casual matches. It took about an hour and forty five minutes to get the 40+ matches done for that, because we had to wait for opponents. Also proved that I can hold my own as Chun Li, Juri and Dee Jay... while I forever suck as Zangief.

Then we jumped into World Tour, with the goal being to max out the bond with Chun Li, which we were able to do pretty smoothly since I was working on it off stream, finding gifts to give her. Thankfully we don't have to do that with every legendary character. We also encountered the likes of Lily, Juri, Blanka, Cammy & Dee. This mode did expose my inability to do charge motions. The next big achievement in this mode is to do over 20 sub missions, which I will try to knock out off-stream so we can focus on the main story on stream.

Now, I did jump into the Battle Hub to mess around with Avatar Battles, and with more luck  than skill, we managed to hit 20 wins to get a third achievement. Finding 'even' battles was pretty hard, so it required a lot of waiting around and rematches. This also helped in regards to getting the 'nice' points to grind towards another achievement, which I can try and knock out off stream as well.

So with that said, the next time we're going to play Street Fighter 6 will be on Thursday, since it'll be more story and grinding focus in the World Tour mode... which frees up Saturday to do something else! What that will be, I don't know, maybe something older perhaps?

For the raid we dropped in on thatsoalykat who was also playing Street Fighter 6 over on twitch.tv/thatsoalykat

So on the agenda for Sunday is do the dishes which I forgo doing yesterday, and then the stream will feature Overwatch 2, which might get one last title on the Season Battle pass. Also I intend to get some more writing done.

So on that note we'll see you about 7 PM Eastern over on twitch.tv/fredcasden

Overwatch 2 and other notes

We were joined by PandaSweet for many matches in Overwatch this evening, and I branched out a little playing as a wider variety of character...
