Well, after last year's little incident: I'm back for PAXAus this year.

I still haven't played much against anyone yet, but labbing Illaoi has been a blast & she's definitely locked in for my team at this point.

Unfortunately, Teq wasn't the only individual affected by their decision. I will no longer be a staff member, nor associating with SFAustralia due to a comment made about Charlie Kirk in a public space unaffiliated with SFA. I look forward to new and continuing opportunities outside of SFA.

an image of white text on a dark-grey background with the following written:

"in a closed door meeting, it was decided that the comment below posted in my personal discord server warranted immediate action with no discussion or further inquiry."

following is a screenshot from a discord server with Teq having written the following:
- morning y'all
- that was crazy news to wake up to this morning
- get got idiot lmao

"in addition to this, I was in no way informed of this decision by SFA and the news had to be relayed by a now-former member of staff who voluntarily stepped down in solidarity upon learning what was happening.

while I am saddened to learn this is how my time with SFA ends, I cannot help but feel like I was on borrowed time with how swiftly and quietly I was discarded after working with them for so long.

this has not dulled my passion for commentary and the FGC in the slightest.

moving forward, I will continue to be focusing my efforts on building the community through my own stream and events, with the help of some exceptionally talented people, and lending my talents to other groups that wish to work with me.

I'm not going anywhere."

with deep frustration, I am announcing that after two years of working with Street Fighter Australia, I have been removed from their commentary team due to a comment made about Charlie Kirk.

& here's a funny Illaoi/Jinx combo.
(Had to trim the super flashes & double the speed of the super animations to get the file small enough to post here)

Found some optimisations for my 2xko Illaoi combo - 553 without meter, 688 with 1 bar, 842 with 3 bars, and 915 with 1 bar + Braum level 3.
The key thing I was missing was the just frame on the second hit of 6S1.

I'm so happy she's back! (If only I hadn't been shown the leaks in advance)

Whoops wrote 502 instead of 503.
Also, replacing the Level 1 with Illaoi's Level 3 instead ends with 688 damage.

Pretty sure this route should work from anywhere on screen as long as you have two tentacles out, and one is relatively close for the first S1 to connect.

If you don't have two tentacles out, the best route I could find replaces the first S1 with Down S2.

Got to try 2XKO for the first time tonight - spent a while in the lab trying to find the best day 1 Illaoi combo I could, and here's the results.
502 Solo with 0 bars, chuck a level 1 on the end for 638, and a Braum Level 3 for 865.

Ayyyy better late than never!

Cleared M7S just before BAM, but since then I haven't had much chance to practice M8S outside of static raid times. So getting this right before OHN is a funny coincidence!

Seeing these two posts back to back tells a funny story.

In somewhat related news, I think I've gotta get something new to wear to metal gigs - my current jacket is literally disintegrating

It's been a while since I've been to a gig, but tonight I had the opportunity to finally see one of my mate's bands live! (The Incantus)

Might have to see if the outfit can be dyed into a Garuda colour scheme at some point

I don't take many/enough screenshots of my character, but here's the earliest image I can find of Jean compared to one from today.
Still bringing my Wind-Up Garuda with me 90% of the time.
