About this episode
Prior to becoming one of the strongest character specialists and most successful content creators in the Street Fighter scene, Broski got his start dabbling in online lobbies for Street Fighter 4 with his friends and posting meme clips on youtube. In the final years of Street Fighter 4, he discovered a local gathering and made his first trip to play offline, despite his initial doubts. Getting over this fear opened his eyes up to the greater Street Fighter competitive scene. With the release of Street Fighter V around the corner, Broski prepared to go all in. With the esports bubble on the rise, he found his opportunity in the world of competitive Street Fighter with the Gfinity Elite series, netting him his first full time sponsorship, and a taste of what the professional gaming life could be like. With the rise of this wave, he made the decision to switch to part time work to focus more on his Street Fighter career in late 2019, unaware that soon the bubble would burst and the pandemic would bring the esports scene to a halt. With the world in lockdown, and a brand new main in Oro to explore, Broski made the decision to invest more into streaming and content creation. With more time to practice and passion to play and develop his Oro, Broski saw his results steadily improve in the now-online only CPT circuit. This success culminated with his first appearance on SFL EU, where he played a pivotal roll in leading his team Mouz to victory. After the release of Street Fighter 6, Broski initially settled into JP for his first competitive character, but didn’t quite find his calling until AKI released. With his new main in hand, Broski would close out season 1 strong with a World Warrior win under his belt, and a 3rd place finish in the regional finals. With Season 2 underway, AKI received a significant number of buffs, and Broski was ready to capitalize. After securing his spot in the winners side of the UK and Ireland regional finals, Broski took down the competition, including EVO 3rd place finisher EndingWalker, to secure his first ever Capcom Cup qualification. On this episode of Trash Talk, we cover Broski’s journey from beginner Street Fighter player, to Capcom Cup qualifier, the secrets behind his content creation success, and why AKI, is cool.
