@draggles I want this to become the fans games, I’m telling you,open source with Riot is probably impossible but if we can get some access, that a team can take over, make patches and just pump out Project L content.

the 2XKO community is so special to me: a mix of tag fighter superstars, brand new FGC members buying their first sticks, local TOs figuring out how to fit 4 chairs at a setup, caitvi fans (so many caitvi fans), and a lot of folks inbetween 24.6K views · 845 likes · 84 reposts · 41 replies 21 Aug 2026 · Open on X →
