The best places are the website and accounts I run at playskullgirls.gg, and @Sgmolly_ on Twitter. I also run the many related accounts on YouTube, Twitch, and Vstream. Every week I post up-to-date Skullgirls tournaments and events scheduled on the front page of the site and posted on the Twitter account.
This includes not only the USA but across the globe what tournaments and events are being held. Especially right now at the time of writing this with the Skullgirls Championship Series starting strong in the online space.
Alongside the schedules, there is an archive of resources for beginners to learn the game, sign-up links, and an entire page dedicated to seeing if your region is hosting any Skullgirls events near you. The site is ever-evolving and will be the best place to know what is happening in the scene no matter what social media platform goes down in flames. Of course, I would like to give a shout-out to other places where Skullgirls players to hang out.
Believe it or not, a good part of our history still is up on the Skullheart forums. Before there was a playskullgirls.gg, before there was Discord, we had the Skullheart Forums. Often still used today in an array of ways, especially for feedback on the game, it still stands today with tons of history. There is still some knowledge and info that is still useful, but this is another site that is kept alive with people to make sure we have our history kept.
Of course, as talked about in this newsletter, playskullgirls.gg is a site that has all this information and much more down the road. The site will be expanding to new ways to support the player base and help continue to grow the scene. The future ideas I have planned to implement are:
CloudNinja has been in the scene for not very long, but what he brings to the scene is his Skullgirls EDM style songs. It was a breath of fresh air to see this blossom in the scene and work hard at his craft to make more songs dedicated to Skullgirls. You can find his work over at his linktree at linktr.ee/CloudNinja. Be sure to support the music he produces to help him make even more music!
There have been many artists out there drawing all the fan art of the characters across the entire spectrum, but one of the artists that comes close to matching the style of the game is ZeroToSix06. He is a huge fan and has crafted his art style very closely to the art style of the game, and continues to improve his skills over time. His art was also featured in the Skullgirls Mobile game itself! A very talented artist deserving of much praise.
Okay, this is a bit of self-indulgent because he is my mod for my Twitch channel, but ThaBackbone1 is another great artist to follow. He has produced a lot of great Molly fan art, emotes, and much more over the past two years I have known him, he is another artist to keep an eye on. Be sure to check his artwork and Kofi to support the artwork he produces!
Aside from that, I achieved my goal of working in the video game industry and I am currently working for Hidden Variable Studios! To which some of you know that HVS is the people who make Skullgirls Mobile and 2nd Encore. The very game I have been playing for 10 plus years, to now being able to help promote the game is nothing but a dream for me. I have pretty much given up on the idea of joining the video game industry after so many attempts, but the people there saw the work I was doing in the Vtubing scene and brought me on. So I am very grateful to be in this position to be making videos for the company I love.
