Forces of The Abyss Review

Video

Intro

What this army is about (Styles, tricks, or “thing” they do):

Or is this a vanguard force, led by an infamous greater demon to prepare the way for a full scale invasion?

Road to Masters: Part 1

Between now and the 2027 US Masters next summer, I’m going to chronologue my efforts to qualify for Masters. If you’ve ever wanted to make Masters, or if you’ve even just wanted to be great at something, you’ll get the full inside look at what it takes.
