    The player worked her way through a four-person bracket …

    So, she beat… 2 people?

    Still… Noyce.

    Thus proving that Mortal Kombat is an easy game made for babies.

    These games always seem like random button mashing, ftw to me. Unfair advantage to be 2 player :P

    “When you were a baby, Mommy was ripping out people’s spines while breastfeeding you.”

    “…I can respect that.”

    “You’d better, honey.”

      The husband was one of her victims in the tournament too, so everyone in the house should be wary of crossing her.

      It looks like she was playing in these events all throughout her pregancy, including a win at 7 months.

    “I’m still recovering from a brutal c-section that almost resulted in a rupture (but went well because my surgeons are goated). Glad that I left the house and it gave us a small idea of how to gauge bringing our daughter to tournaments and travel. She was actually chill.”

    Feels like every “make me a sandwich” asshole [G]amer on earth just got humbled.

    I know it’s “just a local” but as someone with a history in (very technical & skill-based) competitive gaming during my youth: mad respect

    When the baby is that small, it’s the perfect time to do stuff like this. You have to be “on call” if they need you, but they spend 90% of the time sleeping. So just hold them or have them strapped to you and do your thing!

    I got caught up on so many shows during the first few days when my daughter was still nocturnal, and I know my wife beat a few games she had on the back burner.

      Same. I played FPS games and caught up on my streaming backlog while my first slept on me. I didn’t imagine that I’d be able to do stuff like that.

      I finished Netflix during night feeds for the first 6 months of my son’s life.

        You finished Netflix? Impressive.
