@n0ned Does 17th in doubles count?

Is it a coincidence all the realest melee players got 17th at genesis this year.

I think I figured out some mindset changes that could greatly improve the level I compete at in melee singles. I now have to see if I can implement them.

All I can say is I hope it was a good show for the ones who got to see it.

@PlayMTG WAS WAS WAS!!!!

🎉 Congratulations to Michael DeBenedetto-Plummer, the second player to make the #PTEOE Top 8! 🎉

I hope one day. I can live in a world with Freedom of speech.

Third event in a row getting top 8 in doubles with my static teammate Kalvar. Regional Major Major I feel like that's some data to be said there if you ask me. GGs thanks for having me

5th place melee doubles dinner

I notice every time someone puts the time in to write 22K and not mess it up. If you're seeing it and you have ever done that know it's a sign of respect, and I'm grateful that you put the time in to do so #FeelingNoticed

Competing today was a pleasure. I wanna thank the competitors who all bleed respect for competition and other competitors. I felt respected today and thank you.

I had a dream I lost a melee set to a horse. After the games it showed me its driver's license and I was no longer upset.

GGs to all the competitors I got the chance to VS. It was an honor to have the last tourney I enter in NEM to be alongside many of the competitors I respect. I hope for the future there is more obtainable opportunities that are valued for anyone attempting to put true effort in.

SO proud of our MATE team for placing THIRD at Patchwork 2025 @SsbmKalvar @REAL22K Good luck in Singles! Photo: @Browningtons_

Would you look at that? Placing top 3 in doubles and my first ever medal. We also went last game in each set vs first and second placing teams. GGs

That flight actual was pretty good. First time don't feel massive fatigue after a flight. Now let's see if I can do anything in this children's party game this weekend.

Trying to change my relationship with melee to be positive/accept that everyone is so good and sometimes you just lose But let me tell you something I sat in the shower with my head down after the tourney for like 8 minutes This next mango resurgence gonna hit like Crack

Lol what if I went to pho tai tonight lol
