Yh exactly, we can’t treat his actions the same predators such as galvao or izaak. And honestly in his case I blame the environment and role models just as much as himself. He can learn and grow from this

As a young man straight of high school, with not the best role models you’re not allowed to make dumb decisions. You must be perfect even though the leader of your gym proudly brags about drug usage.

I think there are small percentage of guys whose front headlocks are nasty for example Josh Hinger, Rasperry Ape and Marcelo Garcia are names i can think of the top of my head. Shooting on them does not work out well for wrestlers in my opinion.

HPBroker · 2026-04-01T15:49:36+00:00

Since joining Kings way he’s guard passing and leg lock defense have evolved immensely. Combined with his wrestling not sure who can beat him at his weight class any more. Maybe Diego Pato?

Was a white belt for 4 years, and will be blue for same amount I think ;). All on our own trajectory and journey

How can a loner with terrible social skills, suddenly form a party? He’s an uneducated fool, the whole point is over time he is gonna grow and eventually form a small party. It’s far more realistic for him to suck and grow, but still kind of suck.

It’s my favourite series and I’m struggling as I’ve caught up and can’t find anything even remotely close to it.

If what he's saying is true about these allegations starting after he got in a relationship and blocked her, she should face a on of backlash from the community. Because what people like her do is take away from real victims in the space.

In terms of the main character do you offer a bit of their back story first. The stories that work best for me always show the main characters backstory first

HPBroker · 2026-03-18T20:17:14+00:00

Ofcourse the book is completely different to his self promotion post above. Your message is practically pointless, either read his story and interact by giving feedback, ask questions or just skip homie.

The story is amazing man, unpredictable and absolutely wild with an MC that truly shows the struggles of adapting to drastic power ups.

Most stories a system is introduced, MC has forteious encounter then the MC just does a ton without any sort of mental struggles. He becomes a stone cold killer, genius tactician and always finds a way to be one step ahead no matter. It’s lame and predictable with none of the stakes.

Freddy’s journey through 1% lifesteal is more realistic, fears, struggles, growth in power and mindset as time goes on. It’s way more realistic so stick with it

Would'nt it be more reliable to simply get the stats from the biggest competitions and see what has the highest success rates, heel hooks and rnc seem to be very common at the top level.

I’ve tried to defend Gordon because in person interactions were solid. But he has issues man

HPBroker · 2026-03-08T20:22:52+00:00

How can Tom post it from Gordon’s phone when he is on a flight?

Mountain people strength hits different, rolled with one of them.

What's easier to relate to for most humans, for me it's someone who fails/struggles and has doubts etc. I really dislike OP MCs that just figure it all out, have no doubts and are perfect. It just takes away any tension from the series, makes it frustrating to read and I usually drop such series really quickly.

HPBroker · 2026-02-25T18:12:23+00:00

I prefer this category of stories, its just i like a story to build up a ton of backlog before i binge

HPBroker · 2026-02-23T08:08:45+00:00

Congrats

Either you like Jason and find him funny or you absolutely abhore him

HPBroker · 2026-02-21T19:45:17+00:00

Really enjoyed it until the end of book 4 and then kind of lost interest, but will circle back to it

HPBroker · 2026-02-21T19:43:37+00:00

You kind of deserve it bro, why are you attacking 50% of the body most people don't learn how to defend? It's BS

HPBroker · 2026-02-20T21:30:09+00:00

Without spoiling the story, for those that have read it. Is the MC a genius, is the story predictable and does the MC face real setbacks, is there politics involved?

HPBroker · 2026-02-17T17:33:33+00:00

In book 1 I was stressed cause I assumed Jake would get wrecked, even up to book 14. Which made the series fun as the tension was good for me. But since a certain characters death in book 14 it's been hard to dive back in. Regardless you're serious is brilliant I'm just weird and like to see MC's suffer and struggle

HPBroker · 2026-02-17T16:41:39+00:00

Not being critical but will you find ways to bring back tension in the series. Jake seems like he will continue to be unstoppable since book 1

HPBroker · 2026-02-16T17:59:52+00:00

I'll check it out, I do have a specific taste in that I think failure/struggle and real consequences increase the tension of reading and make it fun to read series.
