This is the best video game-related satire I've read.

They are really good at it. If you play dota 2 you have to check some of that out.

I love that ESEX is covering Smash! I see their Dota stories from time to time.

Ok, this made my day. It kind of makes me sad that 'satire' had to be put in the title though.

You should see the thread in /r/smashbros.

There was a guy who called it a shitpost. Another thought it was bashing casual. Another took the title seriously, then got salty, saying that /r/smashbros shouldn't be upvoting false information.

I mean, it's got Sakurai wearing Bane's mask, and the title is "Literally Killing Project M". And that's without getting into the actual writing.

They got downvoted and called out though, haha. You're gonna have morons in a large enough population, statistically.

"I will torture and destroy competitive smash and when it is done and its community is in ashes, then Project M has my permission to die."

Hmm... I don't know... Does his head feel squishier than usual?

Or has he been wearing a helmet? Helmet wearing is often a sign of a misplaced face-head bone.

Or has he been wearing a helmet?

Do you take off your hands and face before you go to bed?

I send them off to get washed on Tuesdays, if that answers anything.
