77. Mastering the Mental Game w/ Truth

About the guest

Truth (AKA Sol) is a Detroit local that's considered one of the best SFV players in the state. He's also considered one of (if not the) best Cammy player in the State of Michigan. I met Truth years ago in the tournament which is where our rivalry began. Since then, he's gone on to place well in both large and small tournaments. He also regularly wins my only SFV tournament, Mighty Modem Monday. Truth and I always have great conversations around Street Fighter Theory.

About This Episode
In this conversation Truth and I focus on the mental game of SFV. We get into our personal struggles with A.D.D. and A.D.H.D., tilting, Strategy, and even breaking the rules of SFV. It feels great to have these conversations because we both get to learn about each other's perspectives and share that with everyone. Keep in mind that much of what we talk about is from experience. If you disagree or want to build upon what we've said, let me know in the comments.

Thank you,
