 30teracyte: i'm still working on getting better at it
 Prop_PT: if you are on refill even hitting 0 will not kill you
 30teracyte: if you have the health set to refill then you wont die.
 ManWithTheMask13: the bot's unc checking you
 ManWithTheMask13: fucked up

therepoman__: Bot's got throw loops
 saucemaster5000: the oki folk guard that deku tree right?
 Obos_TAB: Hidegutsu Second Light
 AceGun_: this bot learned from watching every Ryu player in ranked.
 Obos_TAB: are we naming the Oki "army" ?
 Prop_PT: nah if it watched a lot of ranked it would JUST be doing donkey kick
 saucemaster5000: sir yes sir
 Obos_TAB: thats just a KPOP term
  TXC2: much more of a leggy 
 ItsThugDimmadome: Can you fight other people's "ghosts" like in Tekken,
 gualdhar: but Seachat is right there
 Obos_TAB: bts's fans are called "ARMY"
 itira: im proud to be a Seachatter
 CaptainSpam: Stinkies.  It's settled, then.
 ManWithTheMask13: as long as you're Big Dog all's good with me
 ItsThugDimmadome: Yeah, Adam calls us Trogs. 
 lochnessseammonster: i call myself a gamer cuz that's how you address chat 
 itira:   sorry taken
 itira: 
 ItsThugDimmadome: All it takes.
 lochnessseammonster:  
 xVoxtric: "gamer" is my go to pronoun
 BusTed: 
 lochnessseammonster: also trog delights is adorable
 saucemaster5000: it's a captain haddock from tintin insult
 itira:

  TXC2: it sure is Adam

  TXC2: "boy, what a year eh?" "lemon, it's still January"
 Strebenherz: look watch stream number make brain go brr
 30teracyte: 10 years and 4 months
 itira: 
  TXC2: and actual real timeouts, not ones from Adam 
 ForOhForError: actually how
 ForOhForError: :V
 Obos_TAB: "My dog loves LRR"
 creasehearst: Nelly trying to do a wellness check via Twitch
 HorusFive: 72 LRR streams is only 4 days or something
 Obos_TAB: The AC is on and he's streaming Tinker Tailor
 Strebenherz: look... look
 lightfut: It's more like 70 straight days, not exactly 70 streams, and I think watching vods extends it too, so it's not too hard to maintain
 ItsThugDimmadome: I just need something on in the background
 Mr_Horrible: Chip damage, or as we in the US would call it, french fry damage
 Strebenherz: i don't think watching vods extends it, it's just catching them live, i might be wrong
 ItsThugDimmadome: @mr_horrible FREEDOM fry damage
 lightfut: I've had notifications that tell me they did so idk
 itira: @Strebenherz from what i understand, you can save your streak by watching the latest vod but im not super sure how it works
 raulghoulia: you get a notification if you miss a stream to watch a vod to preseve the streak
 ExtraWubs: @Mr_Horrible I prefer mash potato damage cause your bar is grey
 7gorobei: at ~10 streams a week 77 isnt too hard, and i think you are allowed to miss one and it wont break the streak
 Strebenherz: @itira fair, i'll keep that in mind if i bus my streak up but i don't wanna risk it either
 Mr_Horrible: @ExtraWubs I thought you *got* there by mashing, tho 
 Strebenherz: number make brain go brr
 ExtraWubs: @Mr_Horrible 
CookieMom: I love the "Kill" command. XD
 Mr_Horrible: are we in church because holy shit that confirmation
 Mr_Horrible: I choose to believe this is Adam gassing me up
 ItsThugDimmadome: I'm down big guy.
 Mr_Horrible: real roller coaster there
 Prop_PT: just block and take a couple of throws
  TXC2: F ups all raound there 
  LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
  TXC2: *around
 ManWithTheMask13: I've done some commentary before, I can show you the ropes 
 saucemaster5000: raound
 saucemaster5000: I've seen doom commentate, he did good!
 ItsThugDimmadome: Core-A gaming has a cool video on gaming commentary
RelwinEJ subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 12 months!
  LRRbot:  Thanks for subscribing, RelwinEJ! (Today's storm count: 8)
 Prop_PT: if they are walking back and forth that much a quick fireball is probably safe an might just clip em
 Mr_Horrible: real tho
 Mr_Horrible: "I'm not taking in new information at this time"
 saucemaster5000: Brain has a "no solicitors" sign
 ItsThugDimmadome: "Please come back in 5 business minutes"
 saucemaster5000: lmao, never seen that before
 saucemaster5000: "my bad"
  TXC2: 5 0'clock shadow Ryu
therepoman__: Incredible name for a Ryu player
 saucemaster5000: gets right to the point, don't it
 ItsThugDimmadome: Nice
  TXC2: most games are about making the fewest mistakes
  TXC2: not none, just fewer
 Mr_Horrible: that feels weird that that didn't count as a tech, then
therepoman__: If you ever block a donkey kick up close that's not the big slow one (heavy) you can punish it with crouch M kick minimum
 ExtraWubs: adderal pete is playing pretty relaxed compared to his name
 Mr_Horrible: I think you'll find that all competitive things I lose are determined by luck, as opposed to skill, streamer 
therepoman__: Footsies
 Mr_Horrible: the Nelson Shimmy
 Mr_Horrible: stupid ryu foot
 Mr_Horrible: we all collectively blacked out and lost a second there
 Obos_TAB: nice
 Prop_PT: that close yeah but only in crMk range
 ManWithTheMask13: Insert the DD1 quote here
 Obos_TAB: a few more parried projectiles?
  TXC2: I guess elbow and knees are on the menu today
therepoman__: Pretty sure you can do charged M knuckle on punish counter stand H punch
therepoman__: At the very least you can do charged L knuckle
  TXC2: nice Nelson
 Prop_PT: the 3 things I worked on to burn out less 1. make sure you walk forward a little even when backing off to help the gauge recover. 2. tap parry (start vs fireballs but be willing to parry some pressure  too) 3. (advanced) try to only Drive cancel if you have over 3 bars, it will be green at a glance
 saucemaster5000: time to go to work!
 Strebenherz: best wishes sauce
 Prop_PT: fair, especially for a mid match read
  TXC2: new Challenger, no LP
 Prop_PT: Day Fun Sagat
  TXC2: opp doing their placement matches me thinks
 Mr_Horrible: Sagat using the "my model is so fucked up you don't know what's a high and what's a low"
 rosesmcgee: y us man let wen fw let d trck?
sadfleck:  hii gamers
  TXC2: hello sadfleck  welcome
TheRaggedNoble: I'm extremely curious how that Sagat's other matches have gone.
TK_Squared: Why use many letteres when fewer letters do trick.
 rosesmcgee: Just Darwism
 gualdhar: "why use many letters when few letters do trick"
 gualdhar: aka Office reference
sadfleck: @TK_Squared y u's mny ltrs wn fw ltrs do trck
 rosesmcgee: thx Chat, I knew I could depend on y'all
TK_Squared: @sadfleck My brain is too small.
sadfleck: adam what are you snacking on?
  TXC2: it's vowels you can take out, not consonants
therepoman__: Hand over that win streak Jamie
theflamealpha: streak consumed
theflamealpha: 11 streak
 ManWithTheMask13: you ever lose a match and make the sound someone does when an Alien bursts through their chest
TheRaggedNoble: No?
therepoman__: Jamie gets a command grab at drink 3 yeah
therepoman__: No I'm calm and composed and measured 
theflamealpha: sometimes when i get crossed up i make the aku aku noises from crash
sadfleck: @theflamealpha hoobadooba?
 ManWithTheMask13: @therepoman__ so true
 saucemaster5000: when a ryu donkey kicks the last of my drive gauge I make the yoshi crying noise
 Obos_TAB: jamie? plus?
 saucemaster5000: I assume not cronenberg's crash
 saucemaster5000: unless I am vastly remember the noises james spader makes in that
 saucemaster5000: *misremembering
 ManWithTheMask13: sauce you just made me look up "caveman racing game"
  TXC2: flintstone racers? 
 ManWithTheMask13: Cro-mag Rally
  TXC2: heck of a player name
 LowUpsideCJ: he’s a nemo
 Zaneysed: NEMO -said in Punks voice
 Prop_PT: I hat Gief but SF would not be SF without him
 saucemaster5000: NEMO
 Zaneysed: There name is Goober tbf
 LowUpsideCJ: goober modern gief. is it me?
 Zaneysed: Walk away from the torment nexus mix
 ManWithTheMask13: I'm refilling my phylactery with Yes RN, maybe Sauce was onto something
 LowUpsideCJ: @ManWithTheMask13 Hell of a sentence here
 saucemaster5000: I am such a dumbass I'll have you know I just googled "Yes RN" thinking "wait, who is Yes RN?"
  TXC2: Yes as in the band?
 saucemaster5000: yup
 Zaneysed: Blocking DI is also takes drive damage
  TXC2: saucemaster5000  ok
hypergirlie_hyperpop: he's not a believer  he could leave her 
 Mr_Horrible: the catharsis of shoulder-checking Ryu over and over again
 LowUpsideCJ: I was about to say the same thing lol
 Mr_Horrible: a wild Elena
 Mr_Horrible: 
hypergirlie_hyperpop: gamers be normal challenge\
  TXC2: Opp likes Elena me thinks 
TheRaggedNoble: They're honest, I guess. I kinda wish they weren't.
HiimDant: opponent wears their heart on their sleeve
 ManWithTheMask13: @saucemaster5000 Mixed, I'm afraid
 Mr_Horrible: Nobody knows anything about this character
 Mr_Horrible: she came out and then everyone was back to being mad about Mai within a week
 LowUpsideCJ: op knows two things at least
 JKBalch: She is a kickmonger
 ManWithTheMask13: I think I just played a Chun-li with the Mandate of Heaven. That or they were muttering "drop drop drop" every time I was doing a combo
TheRaggedNoble: Any play that wins you the round is a great play.
 Mr_Horrible: @ManWithTheMask13 hitting you with  from across the internet
 Mr_Horrible: dinger
 Mr_Horrible: right instinct tho
 Mr_Horrible: a literal actual 
 Mr_Horrible: with the end of the foot and everything
  TXC2: to be fair, her legs are like 8 foot long 
HiimDant: but what if we need to go beast mode?
TheRaggedNoble: Eight of Elena's feet you say
 saucemaster5000: LMAO
 Mr_Horrible: Nelson just doing my internal monologue on the street whenever I clock that I'm walking funny
 saucemaster5000: I've never thought that about an opponent, but that is such a funny way to think about it "they think this is me"
 30teracyte: lmao
  TXC2: darn
 rosesmcgee: A boldvgambit
Metric_Furlong: I suspect "Elena Thighs, ElenaFootFetsih" might not be focussing too much on the opponent's character
 Mr_Horrible: it provably has worked, it's in the highlights 
 JKBalch: I do think we learned something there
  TXC2: !break
  LRRbot: Remember chat, break time for the streamer means break time for YOU, so unclench, get up, stretch, walk about a bit, and maybe refresh your drink, take your meds, or go to the toilet if you need to.  Don't forget to wash your hands!
 Mr_Horrible: but yeah it's very magical christmas land
TheRaggedNoble: The only reason I think that Elena is unmodded is because what they want is already on display.
 Mr_Horrible: well NOW I am, Luke 
 saucemaster5000: my feet are in warm socks you weirdo
  TXC2: and we're back
 Prop_PT: the ol' Meaty
  LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
hypergirlie_hyperpop: fighting game characters shouldn't have mean voice lines, sign my petition
  TXC2: how does this coat stay on her shoulders? 
Metric_Furlong: crossed-up? in the corner?
 itira: 
  TXC2: they are plat 2, so maybe they're working their way up?
hypergirlie_hyperpop: @TXC2 copious amounts of double-sided fashion tape
 Zaneysed: People in plat if they have a very good part of their plan generally means they're lacking somewhere else
  TXC2: hypergirlie_hyperpop  indeed
Metric_Furlong: I'm just glad everyone's having fun
 Mr_Horrible: Cammy player with a Sim banner, this person needs to be in federal prison
hypergirlie_hyperpop: fun fact: double-sided fashion tape is also called "booby tape," for one of its most common applications
 Mr_Horrible: Abolishment of the carceral state EXCEPT for Former_Sky
 Mr_Horrible: but consider, Nelly's cool and people shouldn't make him feel bad
 LowUpsideCJ: ranked is its own carceral state
 Mr_Horrible: @LowUpsideCJ we need the first fighting game brave enough to call its ranked queue the Torment Nexus
  TXC2: Ranked: the prison of your mind made real
 LowUpsideCJ: @Mr_Horrible I’d play it in low bronze like every other for I am weak
 Mr_Horrible: that's why he's the GOOOOOOAT 
therepoman__: Incredible timing for the drive gauge to come back
  TXC2: could just be taking a sip of water
therepoman__: The Ranked Phantasms
offbeatwitch: really nice check
offbeatwitch: "Aware" as they say in twitch chat
HiimDant: Street Fighter is a Fun game that we play to have Fun
  TXC2: "we play to have fun" CPN "ha ha , no!"
therepoman__: real!
hypergirlie_hyperpop: lower your expectations of yourself 
 lochnessseammonster: this is largely why i haven't tried playing yet 
 AceGun_: It requires a complete reframing of how you look at the game. Not an easy task.
 lochnessseammonster: do this already in every aspect of my life
 30teracyte: Ranked is super tilting! Its why I mostly play fgs in discords
 lochnessseammonster: one thing i've been doing for a bit is praising myself for doing bad at things...
offbeatwitch: they were slammin that shit
 saucemaster5000: they looked at you like a recently boiled potato
 lochnessseammonster: it's been helping shift my mind set
therepoman__: I played like three ranked games last night, won two games, and was like "okay I got my practice in I'm good 😌"
 ManWithTheMask13: @saucemaster5000 What the fuckkk
 saucemaster5000: "I mash!"
 ManWithTheMask13: oh brother
 saucemaster5000: look they can't all be bangers
 saucemaster5000: with mash
 AceGun_: If anyone is serious about changing their mental approach to games, I would recommend reading The Inner Game of Tennis.
therepoman__: ^
 ManWithTheMask13: @saucemaster5000 Someone please time this man out
  TXC2: ManWithTheMask13  no 
 ManWithTheMask13: REALLLL
 LowUpsideCJ: might I posit, street fighter 6 ranked
 Mr_Horrible: I think it's just a day of the "Brain is a Knower, hands are catching up"
 Mr_Horrible: sometimes it hits like that
 chaos5896: need a mental reset?
 LowUpsideCJ: @Mr_Horrible this one gets me every time yeah
  TXC2: Mr_Horrible  everyday it be like that for me 
hypergirlie_hyperpop: wifi gamers i am begging you to get a cable
 Mai_Andra: When I push the button, it does the thing.  But sometimes I push the button, and it doesn't do the thing... 
 ManWithTheMask13: the what queue 
 Mai_Andra: ♪ fruit ♪ fruit ♪
  TXC2: you know more what it is you need to do, but you're still not doing it yet, so you;re more frustrated
 saucemaster5000: @ManWithTheMask13 "will you sign this for me?"
 itira: 
 Mr_Horrible:  
 saucemaster5000: we felt that one
 saucemaster5000: horrible, how do you immediately have a burp emote
 Mr_Horrible: I get passed around vtuber channels, we've been over this
 Prop_PT: was it Endingwalker who Aura farmed by singing the entire walkout song in a tournamnet?
  TXC2: "passed around" are you currency? 
 Mr_Horrible: I get tossed in the pools for gift subs because I just lurk in my channels, go to bed, and wake up to like 5 degrees of separation via raids
 ManWithTheMask13: potion seller
HiimDant: it's the raider brain of "my burst if off cooldown, I HAVE to use it now"
  TXC2: Mr_Horrible  huh, neat
 saucemaster5000: you cannot handle my potions
 ManWithTheMask13: @saucemaster5000 But I'm going into battle and I require your strongest potion

 Zael250: An amount of months
  LRRbot:  Thanks for subscribing, Zael250! (Today's storm count: 9)
  TXC2: months now you mention it Nelson
  TXC2: Marissas, Guiles, Deejays, almost never see them
 saucemaster5000: despite getting some okay buffs, marisa is sadly now as common as sim
 Mr_Horrible: the irony of Marisa saying "Stand still!" to an opponent that she is actively punching out of the sky, after putting them into the sky
 itira: to me it sounds like Luke is saying 'tent flap'
HiimDant: they never expect the 4th throw
 fishboi_samurai: Nelson, get em’ while he’s talking!!!
 fishboi_samurai:    
 fishboi_samurai: No problem o7
 fishboi_samurai:    
 fishboi_samurai: You right, listening is probably better lmao
  TXC2: "you caught me monologuing!"
 saucemaster5000: beast mode gravy!
 LowUpsideCJ: crazy that these two characters did a dbz fusion and made Alex
 Mr_Horrible: fuuuuuu... shun! HA!
 Mr_Horrible: still a very funny aspect to me that Goten and Trunks had enough whimsy to do the fusion dance proper but Goku and Vegeta had to use the potara earrings
 ManWithTheMask13: Marisa your ancestors lost the battle at Teutoborg Forest, lock in
 Mai_Andra: People got so mad when I called it "Dragon Ballz" back in the day. 
 Mr_Horrible: @Mai_Andra 
 ManWithTheMask13: I constantly tell myself and other writers the line of "Struggle isn’t bad. Struggle means you’re engaged; you’re learning"
 LowUpsideCJ: very wise very wise
 ManWithTheMask13: Yeah, Marisa wrote an essay on the Punic Wars back in undergrad, trust
 ItsThugDimmadome: She had a PBS special on the art of fine jewelery. Never seen someone so passionate about dremels.
 Mr_Horrible: the causes are good, but the outcomes must still be managed
HiimDant: the Stakes have never been Lower
 Mr_Horrible: and that's work
 Prop_PT: the stakes couldn't be lower
 ItsThugDimmadome: Had to press somethin'
 AceGun_: Marisa combos... smh
 fishboi_samurai: Nelly, you do deserve praise
 ItsThugDimmadome: Brass man buttons good
 HorusFive: "Ohcrapohcrapohcrapohcrap" usually IS my game plan
 millenomi_Aura: putting yourself in a place where you don't feel good for doing the right thing to improve is something that I really strive to avoid
 millenomi_Aura: if I'm doing right I do take praise for it, even if it feels like I should not
 ManWithTheMask13: my game is plan is constantly saying "we're chillin" even if it's not true
 millenomi_Aura: because if I don't put feeling good moments into a direction that's already painful to tread, even if it's the right one, it will just steer me away from that direction.
 fishboi_samurai: Nelly, look at it this way, I’m learning how to be a dad as of this week, and I try to make sure I give myself credit for the small improvements as I learn
 fishboi_samurai: you should do the same with SF6
 fishboi_samurai: it’s the small victories and improvements we have to make sure we give ourselves credit for
 Mr_Horrible: mental image of the baby waking up earlier than usual and fishboi going "Damn, that's mix"
 Mr_Horrible: but also congrats!
 ItsThugDimmadome: @ManWithTheMask13 Hey it's like mine. "We're chillin, we're chillin, we'RE CHILLIN', HELP, WE'RE CHILLIN', HELP"
 fishboi_samurai: @mr_horrible speaking of that, I had to go the grocery store at 5:00AM this morning to get some baby stuff lmao
 Mr_Horrible: @fishboi_samurai we stan a dutiful pops
 millenomi_Aura: love hard learn hard find joy
  TXC2: fishboi_samurai  yeah, you're a real dad now
 millenomi_Aura: make joy if there's none.
 Mr_Horrible: "Kill." 
 chaos5896: nice, nelly
  TXC2: lets go Nelson
realbadatthis_:    
 fishboi_samurai: I didn’t sleep last night lmao
 fishboi_samurai: I got a three hour nap this morning

  TXC2: depends if RockPusher  is using INT or CON to find the trap
