Mitch
WRUP: How are we supposed to watch the World Cup with all these video games to play?!
The Queue: 12 Days of Mitchmas starts now
What are the 12 Days of Mitchmas, you ask? Basically, every day starting today, you’ll all receive a random blessing from an Old God. It’ll be fun!
Also everyone has to buy me gifts.
QUEUE TIME!
WRUP: The Salmonids invade in Big Run and Team Blizzard Watch is thoroughly hooked on Dragonflight
The Queue: The Salmonids approach
Happy Wednesday, Queuefolk!
This weekend is actually the start of Big Run in Splatoon 3, and while it’s not the same as a Splatfest, it feels kind of like the Salmon Run equivalent of it, which I’m very excited for. I didn’t really play a whole lot of Salmon Run before this game, but I’ve been loving it so far and (after a small break for other games) am really excited to see if the drop rate on scales is better.
But that’s probably gibberish to most of you, so let’s do what we came here to do: Queue.
The Queue: DF actually stands for, “December?! Fuuuuu…dge”
I know it’s not technically December yet — but it’s close enough and you won’t have another Queue until it’s already been December for a bit, so I’m counting this. Anyhow, it’s just about December, and that’s mildly terrifying because I have no idea what happened to November. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to speed through winter as quickly as possible… but dang, life does not slow down.
Anyhow, grab yourself some December Fudge, get comfy, and join us in front of an imaginary cozy fire.
It’s Queue time.
The Queue: Cup of worlds
I’m not typically a sports person — I can get into a game pretty well, especially in person — but I don’t usually make it a habit to tune into a whole lot of live sporting events. The World Cup is absolutely an exception to that.
I don’t necessarily follow any particular player or team or anything like that, but I still love watching the games happen live and letting myself get invested in the action. (Sometimes, I’ll arbitrarily pick a side to root for, just to spice it up, too.) In any case, I’m writing this as Spain takes on Costa Rica, with Japan having upset Germany not long before. So, to anyone else who shares my joy of watching the World Cup, cheers, friends!
And to everyone in general… let’s Queue.
WRUP: It’s Pokémon and a certain God of War starring in our lives this weekend
The Queue: A Watery upset
Welp. Shiver’s win streak is not only over, but it was ended with a complete knockout. #TeamWater took every. single. win. The irony, of course, is that I almost always go with Water starters — but I just can’t resist Sprigatito (or Shiver).
Anyhow, I at least managed to make it to Ruler at 5am in a hotel hundreds of miles away. Frankly, I wasn’t sure if I’d get to even play, so I’ll still call it a personal win.
Anyhow, that’s the past and this is now. And now is The Queue.
The Queue: It’s Splatoon x Pokémon week in Splatsville and I’m all in on #TeamGrass
Yes, it’s that time again: SPLATFEST TIME! I’m so happy these are back, and even though I have a bit of travel plans this weekend, I’m still going to make sure to find time to get to Ruler. While you debate which team is the best team, what’s say we have ourselves…
…a Queue.
