Congrats on hitting your milestone with time to spare before SF6! It has been a real pleasure to follow your journey through all of its ups and downs. Best of luck in SF6 and just life in general lol

[@Brian_F]

Thank you!

[@marcuscaestus3583]

I echo this sentiment, it's been such a joy to witness the journey from worm king to wormlord 👏

[@sethswoodruff]

Im genuinely going to miss this series. This semester has been a period of serious personal growth for me, and it has not been easy. But having something consistent like a video series of a dude playing a video game in his room and pulling up a spreadsheet has been a source of comfort, and seeing the series end on the last day of the semester just feels perfect. This chapter of my life is coming to a close, and so is this grind. Thanks for helping me through Brian, I’m gonna look back at this time of my life with fondness, and this series will be part of it

[@PomadaGaming]

damn. Glad to hear

[@StubenhockerElite]

Lmao

[@larryfocus]

Well said!

[@kakeikoo]

Being someone that hasn't played a lot of Street Fighter 5 watching this series has been both entertaining and addicting despite my lack of knowledge in the game. Congratulations on reaching Warlord Brian, hope to see you in SF6! ✊

[@Rogue_Nave]

Share this with your editor. Thank you both for your grind on an amazing series. Looking forward to seeing you play some SF6!

[@Rogue_Nave]

Stay frothy

[@ConnorJH94]

This has been such a good series, I'm sad to see it come to an end but it's been an incredible ride. Was awesome to see people like Wolfgang, Zack (though I'm sad they didn't show up near the end), Pokey, Tayson, and all the rest of the recurring folks become an integral part of this journey on the way. Big props to Brian & Double A for making Road to Warlord such a big part of my routine

[@masumasumasu]

See you in SF6

[@PomadaGaming]

Yep. Them 2 are the behind the scenes masters. Big props🙌

Even though I wasn’t there for the journey I enjoyed watching the videos and Vods, this series alone pushed me to buying a arcade stick and developing a pocket oro. Thank you Brian_F for enduring all the diamonds, the net-code, the robbery and oro as a character.

[@arcturadescent8732]

Felt like visiting this video again today, such an inspirational video.

@The editor: thank you for including your track lists!

[@socialcameleon6956]

My heart is actually pounding from that last match, it was such an unbelievably close set and ended in the most hype way possible against the most hype player. What a journey

[@Aleck_VT]

I started watching Brian back around the time when he first made the GoodOnMyEnd account, “why you’re stuck in bronze” was the first video of his I watched, I believe. I picked up sfv around when the pandemic hit and Brian’s videos were a huge inspiration for me. What a perfect conclusion to this era of sf. Here’s to making more beautiful memories in 6!

[@mailtoaster9871]

This is like a summoning salt speedrun history, i love it!

[@GusPagan]

The last match up couldn't be more AMAZING! When I saw Pokey on Falke I literally got on the edge of my seat. What an incredible finalle!

[@davidgood840]

Same! Couldn't have been any more hype!!!

[@Sheithan]

IT'S OROVER GGs, Brian! Glad I watched this live. Gonna enjoy watching whatever you do in the future. Edit: big props, BGA. You've done an amazing job as always, GGs to you too for carrying the success of the road to warlord on KZbin.

LETS GO BRINE! Glad to have been able to catch your final win live, your journey has been thoroughly entertaining and your videos have been my go to choice while eating dinner for the past few months. Can't wait to see what lies ahead for you!

[@TheHollowedArtist]

This was super awesome to see happen. I only got recommended your videos recently due to watching a lot of promotion leading up to SF6, so I've just caught the last few videos, but you have put in a lot of work so you absolutely deserve this win. It is really inspiring and makes me want to try hard when 6 comes out. Last fighting game I played more than a few hours of was Tekken 3, so there is no god damn way I will make it out of bronze, but I will try my god damn hardest 👏

[@goztboy]

This series has been one of the best parts of my daily ritual for months, really looking forward to what you come up with in the future Brian!

[@LKASTI]

I popped off so hard at the end. What a journey, and what an ending against Pokey too. Thank you Brian.

[@anguskong5132]

AND... Hell of an intro bruh! 👏 👏👏🤝🤝🤝

[@randomality]

No joke, I was actually inspired to learn and get better when I started watching this series. I was always stuck at bronze (had the game for a few years). I started to not just play casually. I started by watching Justin Wong's How to get better at Fighting games video and some of your old vids about ranks, why I might be stuck there, and how to get better. I learned and am currently Super Silver now. Goal is Gold, but even if I don't make it, I've learned so much and plan on taking this enthusiasm and knowledge to SF6 and try to become competitive.

[@alexanderhoffmann6544]

Though I may not have been following the series that much from said initial thoughys,i’m still glad to have been there to see some of it and watch it end up with a bang to be remembered,as well as,the positive of some newfound eyes with maybe a newfound interest for fighting games thanks to this series.

It’s been a amazing journey watching you climbing the ranks of sfv, I may have joined the the watch a little late but enjoyed every second. Although sad to see it go, I’m so glad it happened and wouldn’t have it either way. I hope to still see you play Sfv in the future now as a warlord, this series won’t be the same with the spreadsheet but I would rather have it than not.

Big ups to Brian and especially Mr godlike editor BrainGeniusAcademy for making this series so amazing.

Idk Brian, being there in the chat and all the hype, the celebration and happiness really made a positive impact, highkey, that speech that u gave when u got to Warlord (Corklord or Wormlord even) was really satisfying and got me to start trying to get better once again, thank you for real.

what a journey, from way back when he started it I thought to myself "this is going to be a long grind" and he finally made it. It was great to watch super consistent street fighter content and hope he continues for SF6 bc I struggled to find other content creators that were as knowledgeable/fun to watch. The fact I don't really play Oro and almost never see my main on the vids shows how much I just like watching Brian/Wormlord

I believe Pokey said he would be there to be the final boss (well, said he'd gatekeep at the end), and so it was. What a good way to end it. It really takes everything for this road to warlord to be as cool to watch as it has. The skill on display of course, but also Brian's eloquence, the editor's sense of humor and the people being inspired to do their own little rank grinds.
