Rickmuladrip has nothing to do with RIZE anymore. We took a chance on him as someone who claimed to be passionate about improving on our development path.
Unfortunately he was on his last chance by yesterday & following more outbursts we can't have this toxicity within our team.

Extremely sad to hear that a member of the Tekken community "Fuhito" has taken his life.
Remember many people are going through things you may not be aware of, be kind.
Gaming is a privilege and not a war ground.
Also, If you need to talk, I'll always listen.

We've been looking at lesser known games recently and the Lethal League Blaze in particular is doing work for their respective scene. The game is crazy, on the surface it looks like a Dodgeball Smash Bros with Jet Set Radio chars but it's much deeper than that, try it out!

I feel like Fightcade 2 is MASSIVELY under-looked right now.

This opens up a world of possibilities, not only for Virtua Fighter on PC, but also in theory:
- Soul Calibur 2 HD Online
- Soul Calibur 5
- Tekken 5
- Tekken Tag 2
- Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate
- Darkstalkers Resurrection
+ More
RPCS3 has easy to use netplay functionality now
So that means Virtua Fighter 5fs netplay on PC

New era cards are stylized similarly to the title cards on the VF5US Launch trailer. Of course the leading and tracking is slightly different, the type foundry could also be different, but the aesthetic is very much in line.
Is this a clue towards VF6? Could be a reach.

"Eminor? That Orange rank Eliza?"
"Dante? He's never got Top8"
"Chickenmaru? He will struggle offline."
"imortalXsoul? Theres better options imo"
"AyoRichie? Isn't he mainly a streamer?"
All real quotes.

I don't know if I've ever said this on twitter but running
@RizeGamingPro
isn't like running "a business" to me.
I do it out of passion and seeing people grow. Seeing communities grow.
Seeing people believe in themselves and believe in their hard work.
That's why I do this.

Just an update on my health to those interested:
I'm doing better, I've got a stomach infection I am on antibiotics for but they seem to be working - and hopefully not at risk of blood infection.
My liver function is low because of the infection which is why I felt so bad [1/2]

Sometimes, you just don't know what people are going through during these times - and dropping a follow or chatting with a small streamer who is just doing it for the company or interaction, can really make their day.
I can't speak for others, but that makes me feel good 😊

Around a year ago
@ChickenmaruTK
told me he was retiring, whilst known as one of the best players in Europe. It was something I tried to prevent and encouraged him to push even further.
Well its with a heavy heart today the day finally came when the retirement becomes reality.

People confuse good player with good person a lot don't they?
I don't vibe with people who dismiss other because they're bad at a game, or hang off every word of someone's opinion on real life situations - purely because they are good at a game.

Just for perspective, I run two small businesses, I'm a full time Web Developer & Graphic Designer, not to mention family, friends, personal space, I try to fit in.
One of my biggest anxieties is people thinking "he's ignoring me" based on how busy I am. Please understand 🙏

I put so much into all of this, I put aside mental health, physical wellbeing and other commitments.
Yet in truth it's probably one of the most thankless things I've ever done, and it's emotionally draining.

I came from comp scenes that didn't have ranked modes. You were rated by scrims & actual results.
This fascination with your Rank, is the reason why everyone runs, so many boost & too many cheat. We've made it about an icon on your screen not what you actually do in the game.

Insanely proud of this guy. Nobody has gone to EVO in their second international and gone this far. The scene in general can be so proud, two years ago we were celebrating Top64s and Top48s for European competitors, now we're pushing into pixel differences for Top16s. At EVO man.

Pause.
This guy may not understand about this industry is that it's not a white collar deal. I'm a regular gamer who is happy to tell you to fuck off...
You're being a whining little bitch and have ruined your own opportunities by basically attacking us for not picking you up.
