Why Would You Speedrun This: Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3
There are tons of games that pop up at GDQ and other speedrun events that don't fit the standard molds of speedrunning. Nevertheless, people still play and engage with these runs. I've always wondered, why? When there are so many popular speed games, why play ones that are completely unfit for it? Taking a look today for our first case at a game that is very near and dear to my heart: Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3.

Wanted to try a different format here with being in front of the camera, and it definitely let me move quicker than normal. Put all this together in less than a week!
Let me know if you have any other games that might fit the bill in the comments below!
