Alexandria's Fighting Game Nerds Turning Frame Counts Into Craft
We're a small crew of FGC lifers who got tired of vague guides and started writing the breakdowns we always wanted to read ourselves.
Meet the CrewWhat We Stand For
The principles behind every frame data sheet and combo write-up we publish
Frame-by-Frame Verification
Every startup, active, and recovery number gets checked against training mode footage before it goes live, no copy-pasted spreadsheets.
Fan-First, Not Clickbait
We write for players trying to punish better, not for pageviews. No tier-list rage bait, no exaggerated patch reactions.
Notation That Actually Helps
Combo routes are broken down input-by-input with timing notes, because 'just hit confirm' has never taught anyone anything.
Original Voice, No Filler
No recycled press releases or affiliate padding. If we cover a matchup, it's because someone on the team labbed it for hours.

Readers Weigh In
Their frame data sheet for the mid-tier grapplers is the only one I trust anymore. I found a punish window I'd been missing for months just from one footnote in the guide.
I sent their combo breakdown to my whole discord before a tournament. The notation actually matched what happens on screen, which sounds basic but half the internet gets it wrong.
Been reading since their second year. What I like is they don't hype every patch like it's a revolution, they just tell you what actually changed in the data.
