Excellent Adventures of Gootecks & Mike Ross 2014! Ep. 9: BRASSNESS

Gootecks and Mike Ross explore Ed's mechanics and playstyle in Street Fighter 6's Online Training Mode during this Excellent Adventures episode. Rather than jumping straight into ranked matches, the session focuses on understanding Ed's toolkit through practical experimentation—testing normals, special moves, and how they chain together in a controlled environment. The training mode setup lets them break down the character without pressure, discovering what works and what doesn't at their own pace. This kind of lab work frames the early Excellent Adventures approach: learning by doing rather than memorizing frame data. The chemistry between Gootecks and his guest keeps the pacing light despite the technical focus, making character exploration feel like a natural conversation between players rather than a dry tutorial. For viewers curious about Ed or interested in how top players approach a new character, watching experienced players think through the fundamentals in real time provides genuine insight into the learning process.
