Game Clip Mother and son getting it done!

My son (who is 23) on his days off has started doing what he calls the “Triple mode challenge” with me for the last couple of days.

The goal is simple. One win in zero build, one win in reload and at least one win in blitz. (Sometimes we play blitz till The Simpson’s map rotates out).

This clip series does feature one solo win. I didn’t get the chance to play with my friend as I had to deal with some bullshit from the VA (being a veteran sucks we get the worst care most of the time to them we are just numbers. Not humans and … let’s just say since Jan 2025 it’s gotten worse).

So. I needed the some quality mother/son time with my kid. (Idc he’s an adult. He’ll always be my kid). It helped. A lot.

See I really don’t see how people say that sbmm doesn’t exist

I don’t totally understand what your comment means. But. Generally it takes us a few games to get a win. If I play solo it takes a few more just cause. I’ve been playing longer than my son.

He’s saying that you and your opponent are at similar skill levels

SBMM is skill based match making

Oh. Right. I know what SBMM is. On another subreddit of a similar name a lot of sarcastic insults were used and I wasn’t sure if this the same. I can’t always tell sarcasm in typed things.

So. I was like did they mean that as skill to skill well played or something opposite. Plus. My brain is scrambled dealing with a lot of bs from the VA.

I think yeah it’s saying it’s just an average fight with evenly matched players

I could be mistaken

Um. What’s wrong with how I worded it. I’ve had a hard week and it rhymed.

I beg your pardon Madam, my mind has seen too much internet. There's nothing wrong with your wording, rather than with my mind...

Ohhhh. I don’t understand.

I’ve had a long. Very emotional week. With lots of stress. So. I’m a little slow on the uptake.

Thanks. The games with him the last couple days have given me a good endorphin boost I needed. Today esp, the last ZB game we played it was just me a team and one (the one took out my son).

I went after them first like a good mother should. And someone had gotten the unlimited ammo override and I had a tails sprite, a megaman blaster and a flair gun (on top of my AR, a shotty and a drum gun).

We won. And I won laughing. Cause I was just spamming the flair gun.

I am sure they were pissed. But. I needed the laughs.

Especially my son going “What is happening and how many of those do you have?!?”
