testing something new with more casual, un edited eps and side stuff in order to have a more consistent schedule and also to have fun doing other things and talking about topics unfit for the main podcast.

We talk about character knowledge of individual characters vs teams in team games, the state of rollback netcode and how we feel about it, character move sets involving lore in them and if people pick characters based on how good they are more now than in the past. couple of notes for this one, I'm going to college for the next year so over that period uploads will e slightly less frequent though I am still hoping to set up a schedule, Because of this ep being recorded a month ago somethings in it are outdated, I decided not to edit them out because I find looking back at past theorization interesting and therefore I think the still have something to add, lastly there are little beeps of audio for some reason, I think it has to do with my recording method but I will look into it, I've edited them where possible. -Sam
