Realistically, because arcades were a big part of inner cities and many black people grew up with arcade games. It ended up disseminating to younger black folk.

As a basketball american myself, I like them because of all the stupid bullshit the characters do. I like kung fu movies for similar reasons.

Blacks in the FGC are probably weebs or turboweebs.

They aren't any better at them than other people. They just like to play them more and to that I don't have the answer. Just look at any of the fightan game competitions. It's equally all types of the best fightan game players. Not predominantly blacks, or any race for that matter (except for maybe asain).

Pretty much that. There's a reason why it's always poor/hood-nigga-ass Blacks like fighting games, and middle/upper-middle class Carlton Banks types are always weeaboos and into RPGs/VNs.

Not sure about being GOOD at fighting games, but the reason they like them is the same reason why they enjoy DBZ, thug culture is all about beating the shit outta each other niggas. Fighting is what they've grown up with and it's all they know.

LTN started off by calling him a jobless crackhead

Despite Viscant working two jobs and voulunteering at a charity

LTN works at fucking MacDonald's, complains about shotos and thinks he's going up in life some day. He even bitches not to stream unless someone buys his dumb t shirts for 20 dollars.

What about asians though? Most FGC's if not dominated by a black dude is being run by an asian one.

LTG becomes an admirable character when you realise his entire online persona is an elaborate act to be 'the bad guy', and that he puts loads of effort into essentially making himself a figure of internet hate to entertain and make money. Must take a lot of guts.

He's probably not completely different deep down, but it's difficult to imagine anyone genuinely being that much of a cunt.

It's a bit of both. It's more of an enlargement of his personality.

Kids in asian countries grow up(or used to) playing hardcore strategy games like Go and practicing martial arts. An asian kid with a half-traditional upbringing won't even bother with a game that isn't deep, it just won't interest him. Fighting games appeal to both strategy and the desire to beat people to death, perfect for an asian.

they aren't. Every other form of brown and asian beat the shit out of them in FGs. Even some whites are starting to get ahead of them in certain fgs. Literally the only good basketball americans fg players I can think of are dieminion, snake eyez,lordknight and sonicfox.

They're not any different than anyone else when it comes to fighting games. It's just more accepted in black culture to play them so they gravitate towards them more than other genres.

I actually want to post seriously on this topic for once.

1.) Fighting games are one of the few scenes taken seriously, which means you see more of it.
2.) Because of this, you also see the most black people you've ever seen in any scene ever.
3.) Because of point 2, you then believe that the FGC is riddled with black people and that they have a special liking to fighting games.

It's not true, every scene has black people in it but due to the exposure competitive fighting games get you just happen to see them. maybe because you live in some shitty small town with nothing to do but post on /v/ all day. I don't know I'm just guessing.

LTnigGer got his ass handed to him for the second time after calling out Viscant. Then the nignog immediately resorted to threats of physical violence because that's black culture for you.
