What do you think about these visualized changes to Clairen's tippers?
when are we going to vg
>>693110641hopefully never.
>>693110678why
>>693110475Wait is this a new update? Source?
>>693110732/vg/ is where the real cancer starts
>>693110475This game is a bigger dash dance camping fest than Melee is
>>693111097i dont understand why theyre like this. you can recover 10 thousand times anyways so theres no reason to be so campy. also post rank
>>693111097Post a single replay of your DD camping

>>693111521>steps back and whiff punishes what now?
Fleet buffs when?
>>693111660be less obvious about how you run up and hit them
>>693111905no one enjoys playing camping niggers. not saying it cant be done, it's just really boring
>>693111814You dont even play the game

How does the "export" stuff work in the replay viewer? Does it actually export to an mp4 file? I've usually just been using OBS if I want to make a clip
>>693112278kek, I just did that as well
>>693112383No clue. I think it exports the keyframes you've set up and if you try to export it without it just bugs out.
Its funny how everyone describes fleet as a "zoner/projectile" character but BBats basically just plays her like Peach: disjoints edition and only uses her sideB to approach.I think new players just get tricked by the bow & arrow thinking she's gonna be throwing out shit like Link and Samus when in reality her arrow moves are either slow (fsmash, side special) or situational (dair, down special). If you're playing Bronze/Silv/Gold Fleets that try to camp you just use them as parry practice, none of that shit is real
Why is there no good videos about Rivals 2?
>>693112897What are you looking for?
>>693112278I was wondering were those were stored.
I want more characters that play at the speed of Loxodont.
>>693112278Thank you.
>>693112278The fuck, how do I make it not save replays?
>>693114159They're working on implementing that.
>nearly 100% of my Melee experience is stoned>don't smoke weed anymore
Yes! I DO pick Rock Wall just for the OST!
>>693114430Those fuckers. The drive my docs are on has only 11 gigs left, if no one had said anything about the replays folder it would have gotten full in like a week and I would never have known why.
>>693110475None of the designs are appealing.
>>693114995god i hate that ugly nigger
>>693112278>>693114430>can't disable saving replays>can't even set a destination
>>693114995Based. I was just thinking about it while making lunch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_SKH5K5E-E The alternate track isn't bad either, but it simply doesn't fuck as hard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWddP-S3_rQOn the other, I wish I could delete https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KU7UN9fD3Wc from the game. That gay little motif in it is stuck in my head permanently. I've started banning the stage just because I don't want to hear it.
>>693115890Clean it up, end user
Is "pointless movement tech into oops I died" a true combo that all Zetters strive to learn?

>>693117032Speaking of skins, what the fuck is up with palettes not applying to skins
Lol >>693114864
Hey scrubs.Kragg main here from the kragg discord offshoot.We're gonna be throwing our games in the plat and diamond division so we can give the golds and silvers some matchup experience, and have been for a few days now.You're welcome.;]
Low poly Fleet...
Number of askers remains at 0
>>693117150She's in!
>>693117139Each skin has its own palettes because each skin has its own coloring areas. It's one of the technical reasons why implementing custom colors is not that easy and fast.
>>693116692I start farting all over the stage
>>693117483>It's one of the technical reasons why implementing custom colors is not that easy and fast.we both know that it would in fact be easy and fast to implement, just less profitable

>>693117958Wha? You don't pay for palettes
>>693117958I don't even know why they decided to do it. They're already giving characters and modes for free don't know why they're leaving money on the table by promising custom colors, and I don't need people using cancerous color schemes like super saturated lime green.
>>693117283Why wouldn't she be
>>693118095Custom colors wouldn't be a thing in RoA1 ranked. Also hope you're excited for buddies!
>>693117981Shes one with the nature.
>>693117803This, except I huff those farts up
>>693117803fucking orcane players
>>693118051Theyre in the cash shop whether you like it or not
>my super clone watching me camp in my top plat smoke cloud
>>693118681That's obviously a forsburn main
>>693118726Nah, you're right. Still custom palettes will most likely wont be available in ranked anyway, so you don't blind someone with your troon colors.
>>693117981Orcane is pretty much a Pokemon so it makes sense to be feral.Honestly a good chunk of the cast can pass as Pokemon with some tweaks.
>>693118971I didnt really mess with cust palletes in 1 anyway. I was never satisfied with any of the ones i cooked up
>>693118927go super clone
>>693118234as long as it stays out of ranked I'm cool with it then.
>>693117981https://youtu.be/VvF4eLtXO08
>>693119207
>>693119137The only one I used was when they added ability to change skin ones so i changed the default skin you get as a reward for backing RoA2 to normal maypul colors.
Rivals 2 is way worse than Rivals 1.Also, no workshop, mid.
>>693117981> the equivalent of a bear that found a 2x4 with a nail in it and is now swinging it around.Wait a few months.
>>693118927I was thinking about clone gimmicks and thought of a really basic one that probably catches mid level people off guard from time to time. >jump into smoke>summon clone>enable passive mode with B>charge into the opponent like an absolute retard Wonder if this works sometimes.
>>693119660all of forsburns mindgames are counteracted by the simple strategy of "just attack either one"
>>693119648The only heavy that's fun to play. Please come back to me
>>693119615TrueBut it's still pretty fun
>>693119875You have to keep yourself separate enough from the clone that you can't both be hit at once, but close enough to wiff punish if they attack the cloneAlso clone -> run up and shield is actually really good since people forget to space when dealing with clone and you can get a shieldgrab
Will she get maypul's treatment and get lots of fluff or will she grow some good goat tiddies?
>>693120652She's flat as a board, but stuffs her bra with clouds
>>693119875True. When I was watching Cake play it seemed like he used his clones for shield pressure, edge guards, oki, etc. Not too much "deception" with it. Didn't Rival 1 boomers say that Fors' clone was basically his version of a projectile?
>>693120652Is that El Ranno, or someone mimicking his style?Also the clothes really do change her vibe.
>>693110475What I think is that clairen mains are huge lispy retarded faggots who drain the fun of the game.
>>693119648This will be when I quit Rivals 2
>>693117981>but give maypul fucking something to wear.Maypul doesn't "look" naked, which is what I think the issue is. She needs to actually look naked.
sell me a naked clairen skin for 100 dollars
void is autistic
>tfw you run into your character's counter matchup online and expect to hit a wall, but it's played by a drooling ape with the coordination of a banana
>>693117981Maypul is a tree dweller, barely civilized. Clothes are beyond her.
>>693122652imagine the smell
Clairen is fine but the back throw forward throw tipper shit needs to go. Im not even against having a strong DI mixup with those throws, its just dogshit for everyone. The Clairen ditto is won by the person who advances the least and plays like the biggest retard. It's like if the optimal way to play Marth was by studying fucking Borp.
>>693119062I wonder if this orcane design was too weird for 3d.
>>693123436>back throw forward throw tipper shit needs to goit doesn't work if they don't special pummel first
>>693123436mash b when grabbed or die
>>693122652I’d rather Maypul have a loincloth made of vines and leaves then be completely featureless down there.
>>693123561noted thanks anon
I hate mirror matches. So stressful, because it's extra demoralizing if you lose. Maybe I should pick up Lox so I never get mirrors.
Is it just me or is online dead at 7am?
>>693124063as a hard stuck gold individual i picked up lox again for every matchup other than kragg and fleet and like he can win that shityou just gotta weild that secondary and that shits hard
>>693116692Plant maypuls thing in the ground and wait around it
>>693124374He's a tricky one for sure, gotta play more defensive than any other character.
>>693123629are you saying you want to see maypul's maypussy?
>>693124431>maypuls thingI thought she was a girl...!
>>693125379I want to imagine the maypussy
>>693125316his crucial benefit over the rest of the cast is his shield drops are AMAZING
>>693128139How? Back air's hitbox is so tiny and forward/down air are slow.
How do I use unlocked taunts?
>>693128510taunt left
WE WUZ KRAGGS N SHIET
What are my defensive options against Kragg outside of sitting in shield until it breaks?
>clairen player tries to special pummel me 17 times>only worked on 2 of them but kept trying anywaystruly the greatest minds of our playerbase
>>693129367Post your mandatorily recorded replay, I badly want to see this
>>693129453sorry anon i just deleted all my replays a bit ago
>>693129367how? I cant react fast enough
>>693129367The Pummel system is retarded. Use your brain. She risks like what 7%, and gains a free smash attack or combo if she gets it
>>693129509clairen has no reason to run up in your face unless she's going to grab youso basically start mashing special the moment you see them get within arm's reach
How do Kragg's pillars work? Every time I think I have him offstage he just summons another pillar even if one is already up, I get that I have to hit the pillars to put him into helpless but I'm having a really tough time. I just started and am playing Ranno if that matters.
>>693131060he can't summon a second one until he lands back on the stage, once he's on stage he can freely summon one even if one is already present somewhere
Does this game have any autistic thing like L-Canceling? Having to time a button press after every attack to not have worse frame data is retarded.
>>693131060As long as you can keep him from setting foot back on stage he can't make a new pillar. Ledge grabs don't count, he has to touch down.
>>693131209nope, any melee autism like wavedashing is heavily simplified (you literally just press a direction and shield immediately after jumping)
>>693129280The best defense is a good offense
is it possible to cstick up smash out of shield? for some reason when I do it it just makes me jump even though cstick is set to strong.
>>693131209I would say that the most autistic thing is the 2 frame micro-dash input that you don't actually need to do - unless you're trying to BM as Clairen by doing nothing but babydash jabs. It moves you forward quickly without putting you in the dash state, meaning you can instantly jab, tilt, etc. without having to either crouch cancel the dash or wavedash. However, it isn't much better than these options and it's only good on some characters.
>>693131734do it immediately after releasing shield, it has the same effect as in smash bros you just gotta release it first
>>693131734You have tap jump on? ngmi desu
Loxonigs projectile is the most cancerous niggy shit ever created in a platfighter commit suicide retarded apes. >JUST LE PARRYIt's literally falco laster on cocaine with how it denies whole swaths of the fucking stage. Can a nigga jump around? NO. Because your monkey ass keeps chucking that retardation. Delete this ape character fucking now.
>>693131915how bad are you that you're complaining about the worst character
>>693131361>think my stick is perfectly horizontal>it was actually 1% up diagonally so I air dodge trying to wavedashgod I wish I wasn't retarded
>>693132119it's not like wavedashing is a super necessary mechanic anyways, 10 frames of lag makes it a questionable option for combat, really only for niche positioning purposes (and sliding off the ledge to grab it)
>>693131915>It's literally falco laster on cocaineIt's Yoshi egg
>>693132202it's gordo, you can smack it back at him
>>693132049How reddit are you that you run defense for the most dishonest character in the game? I don't care about the faggot good vs bad dichotomy that's fake and gay. I care about the honest vs dishonest dichotomy that's absolutely real. Loxonig's entire existence is cheesing people to death. Is that fun to fight? No. Unless you've got reddit open in another tab, which you do.
Are we watching fusion @collisionseriesTV? I'm there rn
>how do iyou don't
>>693132951Link
>>693132371Ehh, I think it's more Yoshi egg still. Gordo doesn't really go in a arc, even if you can hit it back.
Music mods dokooo
>Leffen smurfing>Again.
>>693133129
>>693129367People complained about Soulcalibur's RPS system, and stopped playing it because of it. I wonder if the same will happen for this game.
>>693134078Go to town.
>>693132951>@collisionseriesTV>winners finals is orcane vs RannoYeah, I think I'll skip that trash.
>>693134006>check stream>he's at 1522 in mastersDo you guys even understand what smurfing means? Most people who climb ladder in any game do it on at least 2 different accounts.
They need to fix Clairen’s tipper hit box. Holy shit. I was literally rubbing my face into clairen so close that the back hit of her down smash hit me but that was somehow a fucking tipper? How?!
Which game will have a finished ranked mode first? Rivals 2 or Melee
>>693134695Getting a second account to get a Calibration you'd prefer is literally smurfing.
>>693134753she needs it
>>693134979You definitely don't understand what smurfing is. His 2nd account is almost caught up to his first account. He's just preserving rank. Literally anyone who climbs any ladder in any game seriously does this. You have two different accounts and you play on the one that has lower points so that you don't get caught up in caring about your rank (while still being high rank)Smurfing is when you tank your rating on purpose or buy like a bronze account for the explicit purpose of pwning noobs
>>693135480>You have two different accounts and you play on the one that has lower points so that you don't get caught up in caring about your rank (while still being high rank)That is literally smurfing.
>>693135480crazy that you're probably an adult randomly sucking another dude's dickdo you donate to him too?making alternate accounts is smurfing, it doesn't have to involve dropping your rating
>>693134979>>693135480There's also, potentially, a secondary goal here. I just noticed he's playing Zetter instead of Orcane. I don't watch his streams so I don't know if he's solo Zetter on this new account, but a secondary purpose for the dual accounts could be for ranking as different characters. >>693135695He's in Masters. He's not smurfing. You're a retard just looking for something to bitch about and start drama with.
>>693135480>Smurfing is when you tank your rating on purpose or buy like a bronze account for the explicit purpose of pwning noobsCreating a new account that will obviously start off unranked to play ranked is also smurfing. Even if you aren't trying to play vs noobs ranking up a new account is smurfing
loxbros how do I deal with fleet
>>693135863MY STREAMER IS INFALLIBLE OKAY I LIVE VICARIOUSLY THROUGH HIMWE'RE ACTUALLY FRIENDS
>>693135741>sucking another dude's dickI'm only combatting obvious (and unnecessary) shit flinging done for no reason other than to shitpost or start drama where there doesn't need to be any drama. Anyone who has ever seriously climbed ladder does it on at least 2 different accounts. Smurfing is when you are playing in lower rated brackets than you belong in, either for the personal satisfaction of pwning noobs, or in games like LoL, to help boost someone who is in a lower ranking. What Leffen is currently doing seems to be either 1) climbing ladder, the way anyone serious about climbing ladder does, or 2) tracking his performance with different characters on different accounts.I don't understand why we have so many drama schizos in this thread.
>>693135907Learn to parry
>>693136005that's awesome dudehe's smurfing, get over it>god I just hate drama let me start shitting my pants over someone insulting MY streamerYou are mentally ill
>>693132827Okay hardstuck bronzie, cry more about the low tier character
https://poal.me/kyleglWho do my 4chuds main?
>>693136005Anon, I'm sorry to tell you this, but you're just actually factually wrong.He's smurfing.No one likes a leffen fan.
>someone posts literally 3 words>definitely not a leffen sub has a meltdownlove to see it
There’s nothing wrong with starting a second account and playing the game normally.
>>693136074
>>693136091>>god I just hate drama let me start shitting my pants over someone insulting MY streamerI don't even like Leffen, man. This has nothing to do with who the streamer is, but rather the misuse of the word "smurfing" and the obvious and unnecessary drama that shitposters are inciting for absolutely no reason. I already said I don't watch his streams. I didn't even notice at first that he seems to be playing Zetterburn instead of Orcane. >>693136206>>693136328>No one likes a leffen fan.I'm not even a Leffen fan, I'm just telling the truth. He's either climbing ladder on 2 accounts (which everyone does) or he's using different accounts to see what his ranking is with different characters. Smurfing would be if he were in bronze or silver or something wrecking people and then dropping games on purpose when his rank gets higher. He seems to be legitimately ranking on this 2nd account. There's nothing "smurfing" about it.
>>693136372Why do you need a second account? Just play normally.
>>693136372It's bad because Leffen is doing it. By the way, I watch his stream all day every day looking for anything at all to shitpost about. I'm a dedicated hate watcher.
>Rivals fans mad that Leffen's buying the game a third time just to trash on their shitty fanbase.LOLYour game doesn't even deserve smurfs.
>Okay we're gonna make a heavy character in our platform fighter>I think I'll make them die at lower percents than most characters>Make sure his fair can't kill at even 180% too>The Axe? No, he he's not supposed to have range really. Should be about the same as someone hitting you with a bow. No, not firing an arrow, physically hitting you with the bow>Clairen? Actually my idea was to make it so that hitting sour spots is actually harder than hitting tippers.Are Lox players mentally ill?
>>693136149>fors and maple in the leadTypical contrarian site!
gee the specific definition of this word sure is suddenly contested as soon as someone might use it in a derogatory manner towards my best friend (me and leffen are cool like that i donate to him regularly and he says my name)
Shitposters will never understand that the reason people hate them isn't because they're shitposting about [person] or [thing], but rather it's that they're shitting up a thread with untrue or misleading ideas.
come on wheres the reply calling the top 3 examples of googling "smurf definition" cherry picking while posting your much more cherry picked definitionsdefinitely not being an insufferable, pedantic nigger in defense of your favorite streamer, right?
>>693137095I think he went back to Leffen's chat.
My favorite Smash/Rivals streamer is Mango. No one likes Leffen, but being a shitposting, obsessed hate watcher on 4chan is even more deplorable.
>>693134006I wonder which character he'll lose 1 set to and decide is his new main next
>>693136674Brother doesn't know how Steam family share works...
>>693137249Mango's fun to watch. Void's fun to watch. I don't care for anyone else, really.
Ranno's kill hitbox on his fair should be deleted. Why does he fucking have that? Even Sheik didn't have bullshit like that. She at least had to fucking edge guard to get most of her kills. Ranno literally has a hoo hah kill setup if you DI in on back throw. Fucking modern controls ass character.
>>693137426For me it's just Mango.
I like Cakeassault because his forsburn was great back in RoA1
>>693136149>clairen on topnow you're being honest
>>693136149What went wrong with Fleet, Zetterburn, Wrastor, Kragg?
>>693110475As a rivals 1 player, this game is so fucking slow compared to it
>>693137805I might genuinely uninstall because of him. At least Sheik had an exploitable recovery and was combo food in the air. This fucker has like 30 gimmicks that cover the Sheik weaknesses. Of course I'm also in a tranny region where ever single goldie is gonna be playing this faggot.
>>693138531ranno also has exploitable recovery if he's using bubbleand his kill potential sucks I thought
>queue up for ranked>actually nevermind i'm done with ranked for the day, queue up for casual>it puts me in a ranked game>don't realize it was a ranked game until the end when i see my rank loss on the screen
>>693137805what the fuck are you complaining about, other than his strongs it is literally his only kill move, and it has a range of about 2 testiclesdo you want him to tickle the opponent all match until they SD?
>>693139064He should have to go off stage and hit his spike hitbox to get kills. It's completely absurd that the Sheik function gets kill setups on throws and can rob you if your DI is bad. It's like giving Falcon a shine. You just don't do that.
>>693110732why do you want thread discussion to die
>>693139771Based? I would figured him a liberal.
>>693139771Oh my science cancel this fascist immediately. I no longer feel safe when I boot up Rivals 2 knowing there lead designer is a chud.
>>693139771fake
>>693139746>go off stage and hit his spike hitbox to get killsAh yes, the one pixel hitbox that's most likely going to just send them into the stage so they can tech it, great kill tool.>wahh wahh sheikHe's not Sheik, mouthbreather. Sheik has lame shit like chaingrabs.
>>693139846https://x.com/danfornace/status/727666143922528256
>>693137426Void just sits there without any emotion and plays, which is good but he also isn't even that good
>>693124063>I hate mirror matches. So stressful, because it's extra demoralizing if you losemirror matches are rarely 5:5 in any fighting game, you shouldn't worry about this. sometimes your own character cannot deal with themselves and starts becoming super rps mode
>>693139894>>he's not sheikYou're right. He's infinitely lamer than the most lame character in melee. I'm not the only one who thinks this BTW. Marlon RT'd a tweet calling Ranno an "accessibility feature" for Rivals. And I've seen countless other people share the same sentiment. Enjoy your training wheels character, bitch.
>>693139771If he's a trumpchud why are there lgbt flags in the game
>>693140057Boohoo. It's not the game's fault that you can't beat a frog with no air speed, no range, and very few kill options. You're just too shit to exploit a character's weaknesses, and desperate to blame anything other than your own clear incompetence. And I'm a Lox main, retard.
>>693140335dan is a business owner he probably wants them tax breaks
>>693140504He can’t afford to lose the gay furry audience.
seems like this is the relative character popularity, based on steam achievements. surprising that forsburn is so high and fleet is so low
>me and my buddy go on 2v2 together>him Orcane, me Lox>every one of my stocks basically starts at 80% by default>smaller stage I barely get to even press a button>not only can't do anything because I'm constantly getting hitboxes all over the stage from three other players, but also because mine are so large I might hit my friend so I'm having to NOT use good attacks at key moments>to boot, every game is braindead zett/clairenfags which just makes it worseI was really gonna power through, but they got me, I gotta drop the elephant for doubles man. I actually really love Lox in singles and while people say he's the worst in the game, he still feels good to me. Doubles is just impossible unless the other players are entirely incompetent. I'm thinking Forsburn or Kragg instead. Fors is in general p gud and has precision to play in doubles, smoke coverage annoyance, the clone. However, I'm pretty sure my team mate's hitboxes will also clear my smoke in doubles since it's friendly fire right? Kragg was my ROA main and is better Lox basically with more options and doesn't have giant sweeping hitboxes for his attacks. Can also isolate players with the pillar for a second to 2v1. The only other option is join the cat retards.
Today on tales from NA East gold rank. Just fought a Loxodont player who did slide off platform survival DI to live a Kragg fair at like 150%. Other regions are playing master rank and don't even know what this is or how to do it BTW.
Somebody tag in Absa. Absa, if you can hear me, please save me. Please save me please, I'm asking you. ABSA. Please save me. Please get these people away from me.

Okay explain to me why I can’t just smoke camp top platform in FFA and let everyone else duke it out

>>693142083join the club brother
I like Forsburn's hitboxes. It's a shame they have to be weaker than they could be because they have to balance him around his stupid smoke and clone gimmicks. Imagine a world where he just didn't have those and his hitboxes could have Ranno/ Orcane tier utility and frame data.
I wish you could make maypul's tether work like ro1, I kind of hate that it's 2 buttons instead of hold down B.
when will they add the furry plant wolf from the first game
>>693142556>oi wot if we removed the unique aspects and just made them gorilla rushdown characters that all played the sameThis game isn't for you. Try Ultimate if you want characters that all play the same
It's so funny to hear ONLY that Ranno is either worthless or busted overpowered, no in-between. Who here thinks Ranno is completely middle of the road?
>>693141890All I see is mango self-admittedly losing stocks in silly ways because he's fucking around with a secondary. His partner also just rolled into a fully charged upsmash lel. Yeah, I've had games where I can do that to some people, but usually I can't even swing my axe because my partner is too close.
>>693142838>No furry plant wolf>No faggot moth>No floof goatwhy even live
>>693143341I like the literal mouse Makoto.
>>693142892>people who think he's overpowered/ dishonestPeople who play the game and do research >people who think he's worthlessDownplaying Ranno mains.>people who think he's in-betweenPeople who don't play or pay attention
>>693142892Anyone with a brain. Ranno is good but gets shit on by disjoints. Thus, he's mid. Same as Fleet who gets shit on by Clairen.
>>693142892>>693143438Ranno is insanely good. Free pressure with most moves safe on shield, chain grabs on the big boys in a game where you're not supposed to be able to chain grab, fast projectile that stacks a "debuff", auto-pilot combos. He shuts down the heavies entirely and only really has the weakness of being somewhat easy to edgeguard.
>>693138381I'm sorry you actually have to think to play the game now.
>>693142892That’s the same as Sheik though. A new sheik can’t kill until like 160% and dies at 50% while a good sheik can convert 1 neutral into like 20 seconds of unskippable cutscenes into a kill confirm.
>>693143341>no snake in a mech>no dommy axe lizard>no polar bearI feel your pain

>>693144086I see all the auto combos have rotted your tiny brain
i need to cum inside fleet
>>693144086Clairen is as autopilot as Zett. The only remotely "difficult" to play characters are maybe Forsburn and Lox in a vague way because Fors is really the only indirect fighter in a game of rushdown characters and Loxodont is a sandbag. Even then, they both have good damage and setups, but I can see the difficulty. Any character better than them nearly plays itself.
They should add pom from thems fightin herds in rivals 2 as a guest character

>>693144086Clairen and Zetterburn are by far the 2 easiest characters in the game.
we're still at 7k players, thats only a little under demo peak. I wonder how retention will be in the long run

Today I will play Rivals 2 without getting mad
>>693146040This only works in Doubles:(
>>693146629Liar, you'll be furious before the hour is out
>tfw ranked anxiety
>>693146829just break through it by forcing yourself to play ranked and nothing but ranked, dont even touch casual until you dont care about the number
>>693146319I'm the one hitting people with them>>693146565You need magma for the five year long hitbox and full shield break. It definitely catches people off guard, and just one free kill in a set can be enough
>>693146040Doesn't even work in doubles unless you want to kill your team mate too.
>>693142556I agree, I really like Fors' moveset but I hate his special moves. The smoke and clones just feel pointless. It's like the Spy in TF2, it's not tricking anyone who's paying attention. He's crippled by basically not having a special moveset, except for the occasional fully powered clone.
>>693146964>I'm the one hitting people with themPost rank.
How do you beat the Hard Mode Clairen in the Arcade? It has machine perfect spacing and input reading, starts at -50% dmg, can armour through all your combos. I just kept smashing my head into it until the AI finally broke and ran off, fastfell d-air and killed itself.
Is there a feedback page?

Why does everyone hate hyperborean harbor?
>>693147439It's fucky
idk why different stages make a difference
If you run into someone in ranked twice (two sets), then trade sets evenly 1:1, did you both lose points overall?
>>693147321Still up
>>693147637they have different sizes, different blast zone distances, and different platform setupsalso armada and hyperborean have different stage shapes
Im 100% sure I pressed B and they still got the special pummel off, fucking what?
>>693147637It honestly only matters in the very sweatiest levels when people lab out specific combos that only work depending on the platform layout. People who can ladder effectively will want the extra level of platforms, while the opponent that knows this will ban those stages.
>>693147868the fuck are you talking about anon? it matters even at the lowest levels of playyou don't want a stage with a short vertical blast zone against a character who's good at killing off the topthese are simple concepts
Can you DACUS without the cstick? I don't know how I can input an upsmash right after dash attacking without it and do it with the cstick results in some weird clawgrip moments.
>>693147507Explain.
>>693147637The main difference is that 3 of the stages are giga AIDS for ultra fags and some characters will take you to them every time.
>>693147931there's a strong attack button y'know
>>693147959Some characters are not very good at sweetspotting the hanging ledge. Other characters really need walls to recover, so the lack of one near the ledge sucks for them.
>>693147931claw makes it super easy
I googled DACUS and I still don't get it....
>>693148281Dash Attack Cancelled Up Sex
>>693148281You weren't there in the mines with the Snake players
>>693147929At low levels, people can barely string two hits together. All they do is like stray hits until 150% and then hit you with one smash attack in neutral, in which case you would died regardless of the top blast zone was 1500 number or 1800 number
>>693147637If I want a bit more range to run around in so the opponent isn't on top of me immediately I can choose a larger stage. I can choose a stage with a center plat if I want Lox's projectile to just not work. If I'm better at killing off the top/side I can choose a stage with a shorter top/side and get easier kills. Harbor and armada's lack of walls also make a big difference when comparing recoveries, some chars lose out a lot more lacking the wall.There's a million little reasons to favor certain stages over each other and even if I favor certain stages in certain matchups I might counterpick just based on how the opponent is playing. Since they're all little reasons though I tend to just randomly ban stages for the fuck of it.
>>693148381you're mistaking low level rivals 2 for low level smash
platform fighters are hard why cant i just get a knockdown and run oki
>>693148013Not what I asked.>>693148168Guess not then.
On my nigger, it is impossible to grab ledge from stage.>but my meme shield techrequires a full dash turn around animation, garbage
>>693148639>Not what I asked.it is quite easy with the strong attack button, sorry for assuming you had two brain cells to rub together
>>693148656you can just short hop into it and grab it regardless of what direction you're facingit's not the fastest method but it doesn't require a turnaroundalternatively you can play our lord and savior loxodont and get free ledge grabs via side special
>>693147931I use pro controller and have strong mapped to left bumper so I can A->LB real quick if I want to DACUS
>>693117958Idk, they've said already that they have the infrastructure in place to recolor skins, they also want to have custom colors in the game at some point. The problem is that each skin comes with a non-uniform number of assets to recolor, so a custom color implementation would be a hard UI/UX problem to solve. Especially with the scaling complexity of skins as a whole.If you've seen custom color mods, you should already know that it comes down to hex editing, so that should clue you into how mature the concept is in engine.
>>693147439the ledges are annoying for most characters recoverieslow ceiling for earlier vertical kills
>>693120652giving her clothes increases her slut factor tenfold.
i dont even try to hit people off field half the time i just accidentally kill my self
>>693148656What's the meme shield tech? You can just wavedash back which doesn't require a full turnaround animation whether standing or in a dash already. If you have enough speed moving towards the ledge (like from a full run) you can also just do a standing turnaround (NOT a dash turnaround) exactly at the ledge and the remaining momentum from the run will carry you off. You can also moonwalk to ledge grab if you want to style, and moonwalking is pretty easy with d-pad movement
>>693120652
>>693149263NTA but it's basically what you said but with a shield
stop crouching between every stock, its cringe
I keep changing my controls then having to recalibrate my muscle memory for a full day
>>693149697I only saw that when I was in bronze, why do they do it?
Jesus fuck how do vanilla Melee peach players instant float cancel nair out of shield? this shit is hard without L shield and Z set to always nair
>>693148702Again not what I fucking asked, obviously its easy with a button but I wanted to know if it was possible without the button, next time just say "no" instead of being a smartass.
>>693147931>>693149956For Fleet I just roll my finger up from A to Y (My strong button) on GCC
>>693149956what the fuck are you talking aboutyour question was>Can you DACUS without the cstick?the strong attack button is not the cstick
>>693147226https://rivals-of-aether-ii-launch.nolt.io/
>>693147931You don't DACUS in this game the same way you DACUS in Brawl/PM. You map Smash to it's own button, and you > Dash -> plink "attacK' and "strong" while doing a quarter circle motion from the dash direction into "up"
>>693149439Oh I see, that's a lot easier, and also doesn't require a full turnaround like anon said it did. Also just figured out you can just walk at a diagonal to stick to ledge and just move to full forward to drop with no momentum and grab ledge which is also pretty easy
>>693150536>walk at a diagonal>just move to full forward to dropwat
>>693150626Walking using down-forward on the stick will not drop you off the ledge, but walking using full-forward will, so you can just continuously walk on the ledge with down forward and move it to the full diagonal when you want to drop.
>>693120652I really hope they don't make her ugly in-game
Do these appear in the coin shop?
>>693151156I think if they don't have the coin and arrow icon in the bottom right they don't appear
>>693151006So far they've stuck quite close to originals, so I doubt that they'll change much.
>>693151304i don't remember orcane looking like a goofy fuck in the original
>>693151338Much better than original. Dont you talk down to my autistic dog.
>in a FFA with 3 campersplease hold the faggotry gentleman, i just wanted to do some mindless exp grinding. christ
>>693151304You now remember what Forsburn originally looked like.
>>693151534your dog makes weird gargling noises and looks like he eats sand
>>693140335Because a good chunk of his audience is obsessed with pronouns and faggotry.
anyone else feel a weird deadzone on their controller's sticks? idk what it is, tried removing the deadzone in steam and the messing with the in game settings but nothing worksmight buy an 8bitdo or try and find a good gc controller
>>693152002calbrate in windows
>>693151641You stop that.
Guys, I don't understand this character. What is his purpose outside of being the default target dummy for combo videos?
>>693152023think that made it worse
arcade mode feels very incomplete
>>693152375https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQlteOhUi2Q
>>693152375Low floor character for when you bring out Rivals of Aether 2 during the party.
Is it recommended to map short hop separately? I've had trouble getting the timing right, but remembering which button I need to press feels even harder
>>693152672I think it's better to get used to short hopping with normal jump
I got more annoyed in FFAs trying to wrangle people into actually fighting than anything in 1v1
>>693152672I’ve mapped short hop to left bumper and full hop to left trigger and resigned jump to be unmapped. This frees up my left thumb to press whatever attack I want immediately.
>>693152672No, definitely learn to short hop normally. Its way more forgiving than it is in Melee. That way you can free up a button for dedicated strong and parry buttons
>>693152728Why are you playing FFA when doubles exists?
>>693152672I'd say it's only recommended to have a trigger/bumper jump and a face button jump, whether you feel fine mapping specific jump heights to either is up to you
>>693152789Oops I meant right thumb. Also makes wave dashing piss easy by mashing bumpers with my index fingers while my thumb is free to input an attack immediately.
>>693152672I'd say it's not necessary but I'm a shitter who needs both my triggers to wavedash oos.
>>6931523751. his attacks have very good range, making him a pseudo-zoner that's difficult for even other disjoint characters like clairen to approach2. the ability to quickly get to ledge from stage with side special, combined with his down, forward, and back aerials, allow him to invincibly edgeguard with deadly speed and power3. meatball is one of the best projectiles in the game with how many ways you can mix it up, and hitting it can even extend your attack's hitbox duration4. his magma strongs are very scary, the lingering effect of the flames making them difficult to simply avoid, and they also deal heavy shield damage
for me at least it's easier to wave dash using fingers from the same hand
>>693152789>>693153091>>693153072>>693153207>>693153072I'm gonna try>Right Trigger short hop>Y full jumpAnd I should be able to wavedash with right trigger + either bumper.>>693152725>>693152803I'll fall back on this maybe. But is having a dedicated strong really important? I'm a silver shitter but I've never felt like tap strong is bad
>>693154053dedicated strong is better so you never get the wrong thing by accidentnot sure why having jump bound to trigger would prevent you from having strong bound, though
>>693142892He's good, but very hard to play optimally. Hell, most of his tech is still underutilized in top plays.
>>693154204It shouldn't, I can just put strong on X if I need to
Holy shit why does Zetterburn's Up B autocancel. the dude can do it in face and not get whiff punished
watching mango go off in zetter dittos heals me
>>693154972im pretty sure fox and falco have some weird window to land with no lag from upB in melee too. Also I think he can jump out or airdodge out of the startup
watching leffen cry for 2 hours after losing to zetter heals me
Have you ever fought someone and just knew that they were a registered sex offender?>taunt mashing Loxnigger>loses>switches to orcane >counterpicks air armada>smashes his face into his controller3 strikes and your out
>>693155527Seriously if you ever are like "hmm, I think I'll pick air armada" there's something deeply wrong with you and I want you the fuck away from me.

Why does BBats choose green hill zone? As Fleet my favorite stage was just PS2
it's uphttps://youtu.be/ubSlXJsdyN4
>>693155527i counterpick air armada as maypul every time because the stage just feels very easy to win on. maybe because im decent enough at shield dropping and no one else at my rank is
I practice so much, learn all the tech I can, crush lbl 9 cpus, and still can't even escape silver. I run into motherfuckers who combo and oppress me like I'm a training dummy in goddamn SILVER. What the fuck do I do?

>add ledgehogging>allow players to bounce off the wall after being ledgehogged either wayliterally what is the point of adding ledgehogging if it doesnt do anything anyways
>>693156381you cant walljump out of upB freefall. you can out of sideb freefall though.
>>693156381Not every recovery move allows walljump retard-kun
>>693156407whatever same concept
>>693156495no its not because you can still force them to wj onto stage and you can still hog on their upb
I fucking hate Orcane so much it is unreal
>>693156523i should be able to hog their side b
hogging clairen's cake
>>693156703So, you want people who side B near the ledge while you're holding it to for some reason have their ability to walljump stolen from them because you want free kills for a random guess? Why would that work? Side B -> walljump is a core mechanic of rivals and character recoveries are built around itStop trying to edgeguard the exact same way you do in other games and learn how to edgeguard in this one
>>693155852>grind punish gameBut everything is safe on shield and has so little recovery...>>693156292I play on NA east. Is it just the smurf region?
>>693156981NA east is filled with insane furries and smash players. Not even kidding that NA gold players are cracked compared to the average EU masters
No one has actually played in both of the regions they are comparing. Keep this in mind while you're reading their posts.
>>693157110Yeah no shit. MUH EU vs NA is just retarded faggots shitflinging regarding virtually any game you can think of.
>>693157110I've watched my EU friends stream the game over discord plus we're both in gold and he can barely take a stock off me
>>693157080Why are there so many insane furries in NA?
>>693157634compromised water supply
>>693156981Why are you getting put into shield in the first place? Despite people complaining about shield grabbing because they've never spaced a day in their lives, shielding is generally disadvantageous because it keeps you in one place for an opponent who knows how to play around a shield to eat you aliveTake a moment to think about why you're losing games. If you're getting the same number of openings as your opponent but your opponent is getting combos and stocks, work on connecting combo starters and kill confirms. If your opponent is just running up to you and putting a move in your face immediately every time either use your movement to force them to whiff or start putting hitboxes in their face to force them to change up their timings or overshoot to hit you. If they don't do that just keep on punishing their mindless approaches. If they do start being safe about their timings/distance it gives you the leeway to approach on your own, but also be wary of falling into the same trap yourself and just holding forward into them and whiffingTech isn't really useful unless you're using it for the right reasons, and lvl 9 cpus don't adapt to your gameplay like a real player would. CPUs can help you learn to control your character but only offer a very shallow look at how the game is actually played
wtf Wrastor is actually pretty fun
>play with computer for a while>hey maybe I am kinda ready for online>go to ranking>oh cute beginner art>rounds of profound assfucking>bronze>w-well at least I can play with people on my level and learn right?>still get fucking raped down into stonebros... it's... owari... this does not feel like bronze at all... are people smurfing or fucking what? I'm new to the game but not the fighting genre and those people definitely do NOT feel like beginners.
>>693157978there are hardly any beginners in plat fightersjust aspies with too much spare time
>>693157978most people playing this game are pretty good at it, even down in lower ranksthe good news is, as i'm sure you know, getting your ass beat is one of the best ways to learn in a fighting game
Whelp it's been a few days and I think it's safe to say that slippi unranked's playerbase and this games playerbase are about as equally as toxic and schizophrenic. Pat yourselves on the back furries, that's quite an achievement.
>>693158245>>693158032Any recommendations for a good starter character?I tried Maypul/Orcane/Fleet but I got overfucked on those.I was doing somewhat ok on Forsburn but it's a coin toss most of the time.tfw I wanted to play a cute fluffy girl but they are hard...
does unranked not have sbmm?
>>693158421zetter or clairendo the arcade mode just to get used to moving around moreget used to fast falling, don't be afraid to jump off the ledge and practice hitting people or your recoveryif you fall off and sd, oh well, you're one step closer to learning
>>693158540didn't try Zetter but Clairen felt a bit "stiff". I guess you really have to pick moments when to hit with here and using the tip. Her up tilt seems very wide and strong though.You think I can make Forsburn work or is it too hard for a beginner to unlock the true potential?
>>693110912>implying these threads are good
>>693158421zetter is pretty simple in what he wants to doclairen is braindeadranno has relatively simple moves and gameplan, but can be a bit tricky to play because his air speed sucks and he struggles to kill
>>693112337Hello blueskyfag
>>693158639forsburn is probably the third or fourth hardest character, new players should stay away
>>693158762>third or fourthHe's #1 next to Wrastor without question
>>693158032not true
>>693114995They made it sound like some shitty OCRemix of the original song
>>693158880i'd say maypul is harder since she clearly has great potential yet nobody has achieved good results with her
>>693158762>>693158880that's weird cause he didn't feel that bad to me. I tried Wrastor and it was spastic as fuck.I like the cape on Forsburn pretty useful and has long range.Guess I can give Clairen a try.
>>693158639>I guess you really have to pick moments when to hit with here and using the tip.you need to practice her aerials and moving in one directions while attacking anotherlike if someone is running at you, you move forward awayish from them while throwing out back airher throw game is also really good
Kragg is pretty good for beginners too, just don't get hung up on actually using his rock throw until you get more comfortable with the game
How's Fleet? too hard for a beginner? She cute as hell
>>693150087>scroll down>one of the highest voted suggestions is more LGBTQ+ cosmetics
>>693159715they're fine, just don't think of them as a projectile characteryou can get up close and fuck someone's shit up, the arrows are just the cherry
>>693159848yeah her whirling the bow seems strong to me
>>693150087Sort by new and give me updoots
>>693159715Learn the instant float cancel nair (jump, instantly hold down and Z/nair, it'll come out extremely quickly and you'll land before the endlag starts) and control yourself with using sideB in neutral. its a bad habit to form, its used for approaching and to cover options in advantage (ie opp is offstage or youre tech chasing)upair and backair are youre main kill moves. Once you get experience vs every characters recovery options and their spacing you start learning how to be a real threat with her offstage, thats probably the hardest part of playing her
>look for some guides on youtube>it's all meleefags using the melee phrases and character comparisons>not one person who's gameplay doesn't look wack spastic and gigaproIt's tiresome.
>>693159715>>693160181also reverse Bair (hit with back air while you're facing the opponent) to Bair. This is something the best Fleets do all the time and I completely ignored it until recently, I wish I started practicing it earlier.
>>693160397The sooner you realize that this game is PM with Rivals 1 characters, the happier you'll be. Ask yourself: why are Melee players needing to make Rivals 2 guides? Why can't Rivals players make them? All you've got is Wisely.
>>693110475The devs should add after image effects for when you hitfall.
>>693155327Again? Or is this the one in the tournament that caused him to drop Orcane like a rock?
Literally everyone in this game taunts me. Why me? I'm an honest dishonest Fors player.
>>693155527Orcane counterpicking Air Armada / Fire Capital is quickly becoming one of my least favorite things
>>693160421i need to start doing this as well
>>693160654they smell weakness
i swear to fucking god orcane players would marry their forward air if it was legal
>>693160654You aren't deceiving them hard enough
seeing some melee fans not give other plat fighters a chance makes me a bit cynicalany fgc head usually has at least a handful of FGs under their belt. melee players refuse to even dabble in something else for fun. Not all melee players thankfully, but a good amount. Like how can you not even be interested in other plat fighters when we're finally getting good ones after playing the same game for 20 years?Its like the obsession with the idea of Melee has overtaken the actual love of the game for some people (sentence doesnt make sense but im too tired and lazy to word it in a way that doesnt make me sound retarded)
>>693160762This will be further exposed when (if) Fizzi's game comes out. If that game really is 1:1 Melee physics and everything but with reskinned characters or something minor and new to it, Meleefags will still ignore it because, drumroll please, "it's not Melee".
>>693160654I do get the occasional epic fatso dipshit who spams emotes in chat and teabags and crouches, but everyone? For me it liks one every 10 or so players if that. And 99% of those players are loxofags so i can smell it coming a mile away.
>>693160762>no melee players play this>>693160397>melee players are the only people making guides>this thread does nothing but bitch about meleefagsHmmm...
Feels good being a Meleechad and dabbing on /v/cels merely by existing.
After playing every character to level 2 for the V-bucks, I have to wonder what compels someone to play Maypul or Orcane. Both of them feel viscerally unpleasant to play. It's like trying to pilot a clown car with buttered wheels, they both just slide around like crazy and feel annoying to move precisely.
>>693160904>some>not allread the post you fucking stupid tranime faggot
i like rivals of aether 2 AND melee :)
>>693160904are we reading the same thread? like 10 out of 400 posts mention that lesser game
>>693160904
do you guys remember when /v/ was bitching about how smelees would NEVER play another game then rivals of aether 2 came out and smelees played another game and even that made them angry? we gave you what you want, why are you still upset?!
bros mango just said every character but zetter is "lame"....
>>6931579781. Legacy players who have either played Melee or Rivals.2. The game hasn't really attracted a casual audience, I think. And casual or new players get scared off because of what you're experiencing.3. It's generally pretty easy to play the game if you know what you're doing. I honestly consider this a flaw, the barrier to entry to a lot of tech is too low and it makes it too easy for players who don't actually have good fundamentals to just sperg out and clown on people.
>>693160932>>693160973>>693160942>top melee streamers are streaming rivals>all rivals 2 guides are made by meleefags>all this thread does is bitch about meleefags playing this game>"UHM EXCUSE ME, I SAID SOME, NOT ALL"hehRivals 1 players will literally never get over their little brother syndrome. All they can do is shitpost. First too many melee players are playing their game, and now there are no melee players playing their game ("darn, I wish they would, too bad they only like melee!", but all the guides are made by melee players. I wish I could reconcile this cognitive dissonance, but I'll just complain about it every thread instead.
Is there a reason people on /v/ can't talk about a game without bringing up another at all times?
>>693110475Anons why was the 24 hour peak for Rivals 2 higher on a fucking monday than on Sunday? It hit 7,148 today
>>693160904>this thread does nothing but bitch about meleefagsmaybe because that's who's represented in every single thread/video/forum about this game. If you think this is not majority meleefags then you are deluded.
>the schizo is back
Ignore the malding schizos, you fools.Let's talk about Reina. I worry they'll make all her attack button throws (backair, upstrong) into hitgrabs.
>>693161108This person >>693160762 who might also be this person >>693160973 spends 100% of his time in this thread complaining about Melee. The ways in which he complains are becoming more nebulous as well.
>>693152375Watch. This. Video. Its is quite literally the best loxodont guide in existence right now.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQlteOhUi2Q&ab_channel=Gekkingga
>>693160918it's meleefags that's who
>>693161217Good job linking a guide that was the first reply that post got 3 hours ago.
>>693152427thats because it is. It was put together at the last minute same for ranked. There was almost no ranked at all for demo or launched but Dan said a dev known as "Beth" clutched it out in time.Its still not the full ranked. But I get the idea that current arcade and ranked are just placeholders that will be updated over time.
>single person mentions melee>AHAH I'VE GOT YOU, YOU ALL CANT STOP TALKING ABOUT MELEEwhat drives someone to this level of obsession
>>693161201Incineroar for ants
I need good forsburn guides, streamers, etc. I'm currently basing my entire understanding off of this character off of two fucking Cake sets. I wish he'd just main this character and drop Fleet because there are already 60 good Fleet players. >inb4 voidI said good steamers.
>>693161201why talk about a character who's not gonna be here for like 2 years
>>693161273talk about rivals of aether 2
>>693161210Man you couldnt be more wrong. I love this game and I started with Melee. But sure, since you probably have nothing else going on in your life Im going to let you keep roleplaying as a super cool internet detective
>>693161318Because until YOUR favorite workshop 4 character she is at least confirmed for the sequel.
>>693161310Im pretty sure i saw soul rifle streaming today? And he literally won a single bracket with fors on sunday. Dont be a pissy baby
linuxchuds how do i find where the game stores my replays so i can delete them every now and then
>>693161406LMAO
>>693161367>until*unlike
>>693161367>tranny colorsI'm tired of this shit, stop fucking signalling your mental illness.
>>693152672I bound my Short Hop to LB and my Jump to LT and I have never looked back.Also I swear I wave dash way more consistently now that I use the short up button (press it first then quickly press the shield button).

>>693161273>person begins bitching about how melee players don't play anything except melee>in this thread, where every single thread people can't stop bitching about melee players playing their game>several posts bitching about Leffen every thread>recent post made about how all Rivals 2 guides are made by melee playersSome people just like to imagine untrue things to seethe about for attention. I think you're doing it now even.
>>693152789I have my short hob left bump and my regular jump to left trigger. Should I just make full hop left trigger?
>>693161482Leffen is a rivals 2 player. Lmfao
>>693161432imagine being mindbroken by colors
>>693161451it's the official RoA channel bro, it's very formulaic and basic. I meant more of specific character guides (they also did those but that's just scratching the surface).
>>693161367Not a bad design but just from an objective standpoint that color scheme is garbage.
>>693161529how hard is it to reign the autism in and don't subject others to it?
>>693161243>thinks I look at repliesperish
>>693160715I'm going to rebind parry to a button instead of shield + B just to deal with BM Orcanes who just degenerate into spamming bubbles
>>693161617why are you asking yourself a question ITT
rivals players look like this??
>>693161637it's already naturally bound to a button, what did you do with it you monster?
>>693161698He's using one of those ancient Japanese controllers that is missing a shoulder button
>>693161763why would someone use such a horrible archaic thingare there also people playing on atari joysticks?
>>693161690>any/allThat's a new one.
>>693161568Don't really exist at the moment, unless they're on small channels where it's difficult to find them. The Lox guide that was posted twice earlier in this thread is the only good one so far.

>>693161934When Etalus releases there will be a forced meme where /v/ chuds make fashwave edits of the bear and claim he's the only redpilled main and that the queers fear him
>>693162048geee I can't wait...
this zetter spent half of this (casual btw) match dash dancing slightly out of my range, and then at the end when it became clear he's not winning he just kinda stopped movingi wonder what finally broke, his controller or his hands
>>693162440I use a wireless controller to play. During beta the battery went flat on me mid match and I had to kind of mash it to bring it back to life so I could fight for 5 more seconds. Maybe your opponents battery died? Proud to say I took the set regardless somehow.
>>693162440>opponent is completely stationary and at kill %! what do I do?>1. I fully charge an ustrong!>2. I uair!>3. I uair again!Loxodont gaming
>>693162440you were probably playing lame (not surprising given your character) and it frustrated him.
>>693162619i was confused at his sudden inactivity considering he'd spend the rest of the match behaving like a spastic child on a sugar rush>>693162623i'm playing lame when he's the one who spent most of the match not approaching? right
So much talk from josh and nick and they dont even play now. Good. We dont need them.
>>693162721you still shouldn't be going for uairs at that percent
Is there SDI in the game?
>>693162842Yes.
>>693162814the hell else am i going to go for on an opponent above me? bair would be assuming he's going to remain on the ground like an idiot, i was under the assumption that he was still playing the video game and would be moving out of the way of such an option
>>693162907waveland on the lower plat and from there you could react to every getup option with a fullhop bair
if i die at 0-30% one more time i am uninstalling this game
>>693163147you're taking this awfully seriously for a reaction to a player who has quit playing the gamei clearly know what i'm doin' based on the first 13 secondsthe up strong was out of confusion, after that i was just trying to figure out if he was still breathing, "optimal punish" was not on my to-do list
>>693161606It's not the exact one that the devs are going with, instead the devs made some tweaks to the colors
>>693163243bro the sweaties don't even let me land on the platform, I'm permajuggled

>>693163390that's just one measly dodge
>>693163330you don't need to get defensive over advice...
>>693163452not that anon but you were the one getting mad at the way he was playing
>>693163452you don't need to give sardonic advice over a silly clip
>>693163243k uninstalling this goodbyue
>>693163594skill issue
>>693163536>>693163542what's with this board? just pointing out an optimization results in such hostility? it's advice anyone can take or leave.
>>693110475Cosmetics guide by Bowlerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKss4xVxvnM&ab_channel=Bowler
something feels far too slippery in this game. it is 20x harder to tilt my controller to get my character to simply turn around and also for fast falling to the ledge. this is not an issue on melee with the same controller
fleet strong dair combos vs clairen at 29% on all DI into either dacus strings or nair strings -> techchase
>>693163668Why do I need to watch an 8 minute video to learn that i unlock level rewards by getting levels?
>>693163663unsolicited advice is generally considered a rude thing in human society
>>693163692The game "feels" like PM tech was ported to Ultimate. It doesn't feel like Melee, but it doesn't really feel like PM either, even if PM is more "floaty" or more "slippery" than Melee. To me, it has the floatiness gamefeel of Ultimate, but you can run around like it's PM.
>>693163778in a competitive game, we're all striving to improve.there is at least one loxodont main lurking this thread who silently read and learned from the advice not directed at him.i will not apologize for my post because i just helped this other man out.
>>693163739because there's obviously some specifics dummy
>>693163854why is it nearly impossible to simply get my character to turn around in this game where it isnt an issue in smash or any smash clone
>>693163930Dunno. Try adjusting the stick deadzone in the options. I think I set mine at like 80% instead of 30% or whatever it starts at.
>>693163914anything worth mentioning in text form?
>>693163897as i said in my original post, this was a casual match, fun was the only thing i was striving for, not highly optimal punishesalso loxodont mains only read posts that have a (You) on them, others are beneath us and not worth our time
If there's anything I've learned from 4chan, it's that if you post a video of gameplay or "proof" somehow of something in game, 100% of the time it will lead to negative critique of (You) rather than whatever the original topic was.
>>693164039optimal play is fun
>>693164072that zetter clearly disagrees, he spent the whole match trying to be optimal and only ended with broken hands + a lack of will to live
>>693164068Oh no if you post gameplay there might be gameplay discussion and useful tips to read!! The horror!!
>>693164119I'm not the guy who posted the clip, but there has not been any "useful tips" posted.
>>693164225try reading before posting >>693163147
Why is there so much god damn shield stun on smash attacks? Why do game devs fucking love artificial difficulty and fucking over low-mid level players? How about it's just like block any other attack so it doesn't fuck with my wave dash out of shield timing?
>>693164393>wave dash out of shieldwhat fucking game do you think you're playing here
>>693164352>opponent stops playing the game>anons want to do nothing but provide "useful tips" on how to best destroy someone who put the controller downI dunno man, it was obvious to me that he wasn't playing the game anymore. I don't think we really need to provide advice like this. Anyway, anon learned his lesson. Never post gameplay clips unless you are doing it for the purpose of improvement, in which case anons will suddenly only say things like "LMAO!" instead of providing "useful tips"
>>693164442That's how I've always known to punish smash attacks on shield. I have noticed that this game is weird and it like sort of lets you drop shield and do smash attacks randomly. Idk. Nobody tells me anything about this weird game's mechanics.
>>693164523
>>693164591wavedashing is not very good in this game, it's got 10 frames of lag, you pretty much only rarely use it for positioning
>>693164528???someone in knockdown delaying their getup option is a situation that can occur when the opponent is not sandbagging, so your fixation on the context of the clip (when the advice is about one specific situation) is weird.why does /v/ bug out over actual advice! all you people want to do is bitch about MUs without anything substantial ever discussed, it seems.
>>693164767i like to imagine you at the thanksgiving dinner table sperging out in front of everyone over how your mother didn't want cooking advice
