Back in December 2024, I went to this new winter-themed PNW Anime convention called KISUUCON. It was the first-annual event and I had a blast there! One event they had was a Streer Fighter 6 Open-Registration Tournament. So I signed up. I never played SF 6 before but I love tournaments, so I signed up anyway. Before mini-tournament, I played some practice matches, trying to find a fighter I liked. My favorites I found were Juri and A.K.I.
The tournament starts. My opponent is this cool local guy. I play as Juri. I win the first round then lose guy I playing in the second round. In the third round, I switch to A.K.I. and I lose again. Im out of the tournament but I spectate these other guys playing. There were 4 of us total. It was fun watching they fight in SF 6. They were evenly matched! Great fight to spectate. 
Fast-forward to today and OW2 surprizes us with a Street Fighter collab! Life is funny like that
