in which my brother teaches me about street fighter (and therein, about life)

stop button mashing even if that’s your primal instinct!
be patient.
observing can be as important as taking action.
rather than focusing only on your own character, remember that it’s even more important to watch your opponent first.
both your offensive and defensive strategies should come from what your opponent is doing.
timing is everything!
high blocks, low blocks, and throw escapes only work if you’re watching what your opponent does.
run in the right direction.
sometimes you have to protect yourself rather than attacking.
rose, if you resort to button mashing again, you do worse!
stop gripping so hard, you’re just causing more stress for yourself and it’s not going to have the impact you want. just hold the joystick like a wine glass and relax.
remember to have some fun, it’s not that big of a deal.
