this is normally the part of the description where i just vomit a bunch of words out in the hopes of increasing my potential viewers. i use clips here from overwatch ,valorant, starcraft, dota, tekken, street fighter, smash bros, and more games. personalities such as caitlin clark, eg potter, angel reese, michael phelps, sheever, sjokz, and more are featured. my head hurts so bad
