It feels super nice to see the direct improvement from my first time playing Chaos Code at a major at literally last year's Frosty. That time, the same top player 2-0'd me out of winners side. This year I had the pleasure of returning the favor by 2-0ing him out of winners. 2/7

Saturday, I got 33rd out of 256 ppl in GG Xrd Rev 2. I dropped some really crucial things, but at the end of the day I have not been playing this game as much as I used to, so tbh I'm still pleased I am even able to make it out of pools, let alone make it that far in bracket. 3/7

Watching a strong Raven play motivated me though, and I think I played the most post-tournament Gear that I have played in over a year. Here's to hoping that fire lasts. Those top 8 sets, and especially those grand finals, were insane and a real treat to watch! 4/7

Sunday, my teams went 1 and 2 in both 2v2 brackets we entered (Xrd with Espada and Mystery with Poco). Our one Xrd win was a very good one though; we beat a team that got top 8. As always, teaming with Poco has been super fun, and I look forward to doing it again. 5/7

The other top 8s were very fun to watch as well. I got to try out a few games of the new GBVSR Season 2 demo. Sandalphon looks cool, and the new changes I've been hearing about sound very nice. Maybe I can dive a bit into that game again. Looking forward to hearing more news. 6/7

Frosty was a great experience this year. Tbh, before the weekend started, I wasn't sure how much I really wanted to go, but now I'm happy I pushed myself to come through. Shoutouts and GGs to everyone I played and hung out with! Y'all are always what makes the event special. 7/7

Seeing pida make top 8 has made me feel the same way; I've been playing a lot more chipp recently but after his performance the fire under my ass to win with raven has felt a little bit hotter
