Mortal Kombat X and gaming in general

So you want to compete in video games, but you dont know how. well im here to tell you I cant help you but i will talk about competing in fighting games.

i am a competitive fighting game person. At first it was only about a video game called Tekken. Then me and my friend decided we wanted to go to a video game tournament and train for EVO. Whats evo? well maybe one of the biggest gaming tournament period. The winners make tons of money tens of thousands of dollars and even can get sponsored by companies like madcatz.

My friend and I however are not in it for the money...(._. ) ok maybe a little, lot, but we are in it for the glory. We are training in the game Mortal Kombat X. How far can we take ourselves and where do we stand in a tournament setting against pro players, people who get paid to do this?

Did I mention i was a competitive gamer?

well see ya soon

peace out

Dance Battles are not about Dance?!

Aight My Peeps get ready for a rant and a video clip! Today, right now I am going to grant you special privileges and make you all dance judges. Every single dance battle competition I have ever been to I have lost either the first round or did not make it passed prelims. I only enter in to all styles dance battles. My conclusion was that all styles was not and is not what I think it is. I thought dance battles was where two dances compete to see who dances better.

But at this event I managed to get some of dance footage of me battling it out.




after watching the video I think I won. With no bias I really think I won. The person I battled is a friend so there is no shade being thrown.  I just want to figure out why I don't get to advance.
Who do you think won?...


I have respect for all dance and dance styles. I know what looks good and what doesn't. I have seen the best and the worst of dance and with that knowledge I feel I can accurately rank levels of different styles to those that battle. with that knowledge anyone can qualify to hold certain privilege to judge a dance battle. of course there is more to judging different battles with different styles. I myself don't particularly have a style I just move my body. but I have rhythm, style, musicality, and motion... I think the judges look for that cultural/ traditional dance styles because its what they are used to.

hope you enjoyed and see ya next post with a probable update on the Porch!

Street Styles in a ALL Styles Dance Battle

Wassup my fellow audience, in this post I am talking about dance battles and why I believe i may never win one in Chicago.

My style of dance is a mix between animation, pop lock, and hip hop. It can be referred to as a street style mainly because it is self taught and comes as a outlet, in a negative society, to be positive. I have not taken any classes to learn, just simple hard work, time, and dedication. 

All styles in Chicago dance scene, in my opinion is not all styles. It is a few styles from very close observations and up close research i can say it consists of 3 main styles. Chicago Foot work, Pop Lock, and House. Bboying can also count as all styles, however, bboys have their own circuits of bboy battles and usually don't compete in a all styles dance battle.

I have wayyy more information to reveal and many secrets to unfold but alas i don't want to over saturate anyone. so next post i will go into further the bias of Chicago dance scene and more updates on the porch.

the porch is a reality web series about me and my crew mainly Darth Aviation the peeps in the vid below

Check below to see a clip of me and my peeps dancing in the style of animation downtown Chicago
