Hidden on the 7M floor of a tower with popular restaurants near popular shops is SUPER PLAY EVERYDAY ARCADE.
And yes, this is where

“The VF Mecca of China!” I was told!
Is VF the Chess of Fighting Games?
Last week on stream
@Juicebox_FGC
had an amazing reply (as he often does) to a comment/inquiry about

Enjoy!
So this weekend’s weapon of choice is:

In fighting games if you can read the opponents mind, there should be a reward for that, just like in real combat. In the ring if you know your opponent will attack with a double jab there's multiple options; interception, go offline, level change, fend off with backstep, etc.
Had an awesome time and took 1st 🥇 🙏🏼
Thanks so much to Cole (Gold) for running the event, Cardboard Diamonds for hosting/hospitality/AIR CONDITIONING 😎, and

Here is a build from a new friend in China 🥲
I will meet them and others in 2 weeks 💕
13 years ago, today, my wife and I were officially engaged (our official wedding date is 11/08/08 but the engagement is like the first half of our wedding—it’s a long story)!

@_amiusagi_
is strong!!! 🔥
Her reactions are good with great guard punish and her sweep punishment.
In the neutral, she is solid and blows me up with 33P launcher.
Next time, I think she will contain my 1K and it will be scary! ☠️
