I love your team name! What were some other options that didn't make the cut?

There were no other options. Someone on Reddit suggested it and everyone loved it so much that we stuck with it.

I'll take the opportunity to ask, do you partner with any visually impaired gaming networks? I'm looking for myself

We don't, but maybe you could ask BlindWarriorSven. He is a professional Street Fighter player who is completely blind.

As some has pointed out, sound cues. However, SF in particular has an excellent 3d sound stage. Blind people can hear and identify everything that happens in the game, including how far away the opponent is standing.

Some people rely totally on sound for hit confirms, blind or not. Spacing would be an issue though.
