After visiting 
It's a game called Streetfighter. For me, the most iconic fighter game ever made.
Ezzy turned out to not be a little bit but a million times better at the game than I.
But I don't mind losing when I'm enjoying something. My only goal is to get better at it.
When I got back home I bought the game (Streetfighter V) and went to work.
Me and
Just as a reminder. I started playing him with this controller. I realized pretty fast that this thing wasn't going to cut it. My hands are too big and I'm just not used to it.
So I ordered this. A FightStick just like in the arcade where I used to play street fighter II.
When I learned to play streetfighter it looked like this.
Now it looks like this
After playing with it for 2 weeks I realized that I kept missing Input. To clarify. In a fighting game, you have to make a lot of half circles and quarter circle with the stick to do special moves. (like shooting a fireball). If you miss input the move doesn't come out. And that's something you want to avoid at all cost. So I did some research.
I learned that my FightStick is based on Japanse arcade halls and not American. I wasn't used to it and it super hard to master. Because the Restrictor Plate in Japanse fight sticks is square and in American FightSticks it's an octagon.
It's easier explained with pictures.
I ordered the American restrictor plate from a company in the UK. I also ordered 2 colored buttons to give my stick some character.
After installing my Octagon restrictor plate it was like a new stick. It made everything easier. Moves were coming out way more consistent. But I knew I still had to practice a lot.
I was ready to face my nemesis (and very good friend).
I played
Until tonight. Two months after we started playing.
He played Ken I choose Urien. We played first to 3 wins. It ended up being 2-2 like so many times before and where I lost.
This time it didn't look much different.
He started strong. Kicking and punching me with fast combos.
I was pushed into the corner. All I could do was block and hope.
I lost half my health bar already.
Then I got a break, he missed a dragon punch and I got out. Throwing in some combos of my own.
Normally we talk while playing. Now it was dead silent.
I then made a mistake. I wanted to do a crossover but mistimed. I landed next to him. Defenceless.
He grabbed and threw me straight away. I was almost dead. One punch away.
I then noticed that I had my super bar filled. A super move, when landed, on the opponent, hurts a lot.
I decided to just go for it.
I dashed forward. Jump in unexpectedly and kicked Ken in the face.
He missed his block!! I was too fast.
I ducked and hit him again. (it's called a hit confirm)
This was my moment.
I unleashed the super move.
The screen went black.
I think I heard Ezzy screaming 'nooooooooooo' in my headphone.
Ezzy's lifebar was reduced to zero.
I won! I finaly did it!
