-League of Legends
-Heroes of the Storm
-Overwatch(the first one)
-Guilty Gear Strive
-Street Fighter 5 & 6
-Granblue
-Apex Legends
-Hearthstone

There might be some others that Ive forgotten.

I'm just now thinking of the games from this year that have been highlights for me. Hopefully Pokemon Legends will add to the list in a weeks time, but so far its:

-Dynasty Warriors Origins
-Expedition 33
-Mario Kart World
-Hades 2
-Warriors Abyss

Not in any particular order btw.

Mental state has kinda been in the dumps the past week, which sucks. makes things I enjoy like streaming a struggle to even start.

It's also been another of the things thats cooked my sleep pattern, which is why im posting this at 3am.

just gotta survive till legends za lmao.

GLPhoenix @glphoenix.bsky.social · 3d

that and i kinda played more than intended today, and my hands are feeling it. damn shitty body falling apart on me.

GLPhoenix @glphoenix.bsky.social · 3d

Yeah Blitz/Warwick is likely the direction im going with for the time being. Theres some quite easy ways for the 2x rocket grab to get WW active in a single combo, and theres also some fun mix potential along with it

For right now though my energy is completely gone and i need to just chill tonight

In regards to 2xko, just last week I was thinking that I might be sidelining the blitzcrank to play Illaoi/Teemo, but with Warwick now in as well, I'm liking the Blitz/WW idea.

GLPhoenix @glphoenix.bsky.social · 4d

Oh Braum is very cool, I like him a lot and was thinking of picking him up before I landed on Illaoi to pair with blitz.

I'd be willing to try out the netcode and see how well it holds up playing from opposite sides of the globe lmao.

GLPhoenix @glphoenix.bsky.social · 4d

Oh yeah, im streaming more Mario Kart Speedruns twitch.tv/glphoenix

I'm bad at remembering to post about it.

GLPhoenix @glphoenix.bsky.social · 4d

Throughout the beta i we playing Blitz/Illaoi but i do want to try out Teemo and Warwick to see what's going on with them.

Yasuo, Ekko, Ahri, Illaoi & Blitz in "2XKO Official Cinematic: Ties That Bind ft. Courtney LaPlante of Spiritbox"

Also Ahri in the flashback wears a similar but shorter cape than the one she has in Ruined King & LoR
