It's no secret that fighting games can be intimidating; at the end of the day, they're experiences that demand time, dedication, and skill. While it has new accessibility options, Street Fighter 6 is very deep, and mastering it is a titanic task. However, that didn't stop one player from finding a very curious way to battle in online modes.
We're talking about TalesOfMrE, a well-known streamer and player specializing in fighting games. This week, he made headlines for his latest initiative: playing Capcom's video game while exercising on a treadmill.
PLAYING STREET FIGHTER 6 WHILE USING A TREADMILL? A STREAMER MADE IT POSSIBLE
It seems that this idea had been on the content creator's mind for weeks. In May, he expressed his desire to use a fighting stick to play while using the treadmill, citing the characters from the video game Typing of the Dead as an example.
A couple of days later, the streamer uploaded a video showing him holding his fighting stick with a pair of suspenders. With Street Fighter 6 already on sale, it was only a matter of time before TalesOfMrE put his curious and unorthodox control scheme to the test. Incredibly, he managed to adapt and defeat his rivals in online modes with apparent ease.
In one of the clips that went viral, the streamer and fan destroyed his opponent with Zangief's powerful grips and achieved a Perfect K.O., which means he won the round without receiving a single hit. It's worth noting that he used the Classic Control, so he had to make full joystick movements at all times to execute special attacks. All this while exercising on the treadmill.
The clip of just a few seconds was taken from a live broadcast on June 5th. Although the streamer was playing Street Fighter 6 while walking on the exercise machine, he managed to win most of the fights. However, at one point, he stumbled and almost fell.
But tell us, what do you think of the player's feats? Do you think it's too dangerous? Let us know in the comments.
