Being fairly new to the fgc, it's always so cool getting to hear all these stories of the past and how rich the fgc lore is. While Brian is spouting off his influences, little does he know, he's actually one of my biggest influences to keep going too hahah
Good to see Smug getting credit for the pro player/content creation side of things. BrianF is absolutely right, he was pretty much the only pro player/content creator at one point. People were either making content and guides like Maximilian and VesperArcade, or pro players who only went to offline tournaments and might stream a few times a month but didn't care about gaining a following or getting subs. Smug did both, and then pro players started catching onto the idea since there really wasn't an offline choice by the time the pandemic hit.
I swear every fighting game player got that one story of “I thought I was the best so I went to a local and got bodied” 💀it’s gotta be like a shared experience for everybody
First local torny I went to I made it to GF. It was a tiny (20ish players) local with mostly causal players, second tournament was a little bit a bigger event(200 players).......went 0-2 never been humbled so fast. 😂😂😂😂
Just a friendly reminder that Brian's content is dope and he won that Texas Showdown a week after getting surgery for testicular cancer, so if you don't follow him you should
SMUG . dude was the first sf streamer I watched often. absolutely hilarious with the quotes. "what you jumpin for boi!?" "acting like you won't get command grabbed". His streams are much different now but man sf4/sf5 were great
Brian legendary its crazy that he said he really only started grinding tourneys fr in the 2017 era. You woudlnt think 😯, salute momo for beating his ass then 🤣

Thanks for having me on!
Ggs, I was the spectator!
SHOUTOUTS TO JC
I wish Roy was on this list, taught Brian how to turn it up
Great to see my GOAT's GOATS
Good list. I always stop to listen to Brian F. An articulate guy and always bring interesting information about FGC.

The Daigo story was some straight up anime character arc shit.
Nah that Daigo story was adorable
Brian himself will be the inspiration for a whole new generation of champions. The FGC is one of a kind.

Starting with sf6 brianf is probably my favorite sf youtuber. His recaps for big events are appreciated
That daigo encounter was some anime shit lol, cant wait for the fanfics
