Not enough cute ABAs in these threads
The blazing pass suuucks
UGOKANAIDE
please stop doing [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] [Embed] i have [Embed] phobia
>>566812143Bake the next threadBreak the cycle
>>566812261i'm fron sfg i only come here for gio and -strive- art
>>566810697Interesting thing I noticed, I think ABA is the only character with painted nails. Thought for sure at least Test or Elphelt but from what I can tell only ABA.
>>566812528can i share bath with her
>>566812484Well, here you go.
>Rewards included in Blazing Pass Plus may become available through other methods at a later dateSo it confirms that you can get the pass rewards after the pass ends through a different methods. I could think of a case scenario it would be done through fishing again lol. Another scenario is of course the launch of an in game store and you can buy them using world dollars or another scenario is to pack them into DLCs that you can buy or crack them. Just like Granblue I guess.
>>566810556I'm going to embed my semen into her womb
How to enjoy the game in Park :- Leave the match after you won 5 or 10 times- Playing a match against Max AURA WANTED lvl 5900? Analyze the gameplay and try to win at least 5 games. Doesn't matter if you get hard bodied.- Don't hesitate to switch character- Enjoy the gameThat being said, after like 500 games in Park, I can tell you who's dead :- Testament (literally missing)- Goldlewis (unironically, I see this guy way less now)- A.B.A (you already know)Now the following characters are annoying as hell :- Dizzy (I see this sleepy zoner way more than HC desu)- Unika (big buttons, big damage, big zoning, big dp, act like a "slow" powerhouse and I'm out here winning round start with 5H lmao)
>>566812919Can you creamapi battle pass content in games?
Is HC overall worse now?
>>566813354iirc you need to download a save file with the battlepass completed. That's what I know from Tekken 8 and Granblue battlpasses. Now when the pass ends and the rewards become DLCs you can crack them of course.
>>566813774i wish talkin about HC would lead to an banlike how deep fried is your brain not to understand hes gone and never coming back and hes infinite was never even realstop wasting your precious timee thinking about hc being ever even existed
>>566804224uuuhhhhhhhhhhhhh>Adjusted so that returning the directional input to neutral or inputting within 4F immediately after inputting ( or or or or or ) + Dash button no longer triggers a dash.Doesn't this hurt dashblocking?>Adjusted so that inputting within 4F immediately after inputting ( or or or or or ) + Dash button no longer triggers a backdash.No more backdashing after blocking low?
>>566814092He dominated the game for over 3 years.
This is the small, hotfix patch before the big one right?To make myself clear, I am not saying the game needs a big patch, but I remember hearing that they were to do a second pass on balance a bit after 2.0, I just want to know if it's this one or not
>>566814176HC is high school bully who died off screen to drug overdose or got driven by carit's over hes dead and buried now think of something else hes never coming back
Undoing the infinite mana is so unnecessary.
>>566814242this is the 5th time people have proclaimed HC is dead
>>566814192Nah this is just a hotfix right now plus blazing pass launch.
why is Johnny getting raped in every replay I watch
>>566814192>but I remember hearing that they were to do a second pass on balance a bit after 2.0Miyauchi got another one!
TO-TORIKU OAH TORITTO
Why am I getting counter hit for blocking?
Need Delilah so bad!!!!!
>>566818185You're not.
remember that questionnaire they asked fucking years ago about how frequently you'd like the game updated?where are the people who voted for long cycles now?
>>566819952I can't tell whether you think they update the game too often or not often enough.
>>566819952>>566820182this isn't even an update it's a bug fix patch
>>566819952Right fucking here. It's barely an update.
>Hard, bed-breaking doggystyle with Millia until it kills me
>want to play Millia because she's cute and has a MASSIVE ass>actually playing her is about as fucking busy as playing Jack-oI'm not gonna make it...
>>566821773same, i picked up gio and have been having a blast
>Daisuke's old art is a badge and not something you can swap out with the wanted poster render art Wtf >You can set your opponent's skins like sf6Nice>God I-no is the only "skin", Sol is the only weapon swap, only some characters get a color in the first premium pass, only 1 new wanted poster and UI (once again slapped on top)Lol>some throw backdash os shit reworked ok>balance tweaks are just HC steady aim and Millia corner carry Whack
>>566821853Yeah, I fucking hate how her skin glows and changes color but she does have a fantastic ass too so I play her regularly Much more brainlet friendly
>>566821960>balance tweaks are just HC steady aim and Millia corner carryDidn't they literally, explicitly say this weeks ago? Why are people upset? Why were they expecting more?
>>566821569I still think that Millia is the biggest starfish in all of fiction
>>566821970mods
>>566821569>bed-breakingDo not
Buffs doko?
learning the game with gio rn, when aba inevitably gets fixed, i will change to her
>>566824485it probably says something about the fujos that write on Ao3 that this is the fourth most popular relationship in the franchise
>>566824916It'll be too late by then, you'll have fallen into tits with no way out.
>>566824916I hope you have 5 years in you, anon
>>566824485I'd buff her asshole with my cock if you know what I mean.
>>566825526unless your dick's shaped like a key, it ain't happening
does the DLC unlocker apply to the gooner battlepass yet? You're not gonna catch me using the fucking slab but at the same time I'll be damned if they lock any alternate skins away from me
Buff Jam>Gekirin +1 on block>Ryuutsui +0 on block>Puffball -4 on block
>>566825630It's my lucky day then...
>>566827291Find out tomorrow. Probably going to be like Granblue's.
>>566829110Impressive.

>>566827291whorse
do you think it's too late to git gud before tokon kills strive?i don't like tag fighters and marvel so i'll probably stop playin fightans if strive gets replaced
>>566833483Tokon is already projected internally to soft flop it's why they did a Strive 2.0 after Damon and Baby completely flopped
>>566833483dumbass nigga
>>566833483>DNF will kill strive>Granblue will kill strive>2XKO will kill strive >Goritaire will kill strive
>>566833483why would you want to "git gud" at dash macro strive?
>millia decent for exactly 3 weeks>nerfed immediatelyok
>>566836292I don't think this one is gonna stick, bro
>>566836019>Goritaire will kill strivethis one is true though
>>566836521Why continue to play a character that even the developers acknowledge is a mistake?
>>566833483>Tag-slop =/= StriveDifferent playerbase.
>>566836685she's funni
>>566836847she's not thoughThis simulacrum of this alternate universe meme millia is funnyBut millia herself never says or does anything funny
>>566837001that's enough for me
This is why people look down on Millia players

Peni's Character overview for Marvel Tokonhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMAokt02XWc
Newbie here. How do you actually use jabs? They barely lead to proper gatlings and you can only combo from it on counter but I suck at hit confirming so I cannot properly combo off them if that happens.What's their biggest purpose?
>>566840178What do you mean by jabs? You mean like the P or K buttons? They are meant to be low risk low reward (unless you are privileged) options you can use to check your opponent when they are in range. They can usually either lead to a small confirm depending in your character or even a hard knockdown. Can you be more specific since this is Guilt Gear where what character you play matters to know exactly what your options are
>>566838215>Mecha Meltdown doesn't melt down the mech and make her nakedクソゲー
Millianiggers had one the best winrates in vanquisher last patch yet now have the NERVE to play victim once again because of a tiny bugfixTell them how their uninteractive casino character is bullshit and they, like they mindless bots that they are, will just link to the RETARDED video that says that you have to memorize her 9001 mixup permutations just so you can RPS, therefore her mixup is "not real", whatever the fuck that meansGod I can't stand these drooling baboon APE retardsI hate Millianiggers so goddamn much
>>566840476Example Jam. I understand her K because it leads to a gatling 6K. But her P I do not know how to use.Is it primarily for checking only? Regardless of character, how do you "check"? Does P and K win against far Slash or something?
>>566825206Can't fucking believe a straight ship is the second most popular ship in a fandom.
>>566841096say you are in the corner getting relentlessly raped you predict they're going for a pressure reset or run up throw mashing 2P/5P is good to stuff those
>>566841096Jam's 2P also gatlings into her 6K, so I dunno what you're complaining about hereYour standing P is pretty much just a quick antiair. It's not gonna be something you use much for mashing on defense or checking approaches in neutral since it's short and would whiff against anything even slightly low profiling. Using your P and K buttons are also for the sake of mashing on defense. If a character is in your face, you probably don't wanna hit a button that takes a long time to actually connect, or rather you wanna use the quickest thing you possibly can. That is where your 2P or 2K come into play. Respectively, they are 5 and 6 frames to start which is much faster than your admittedly fast far slash at 9 frames or your 2S at 10 frames
>>566836019>tekken 8 will kill strive>street fighter 6 will kill strive>melty blood lumina will kill strive>melty blood lumina II will kill strive>mortal kombat 1 will kill strive
>>5668410962p mash is a good way to scout opponents with most characters, but your character may have better options for doing this, though they're unlikely to be as fast.5p should go into a command normal if it connects.Both fast buttons lose really fucking hard to most slashes and heavy slashes, since those typically have disjoints, but in situations where that's not the case, you can sometimes get through a lot of bullshit with 5p and 2p. See Ky 2p beating Baiken's jumping slash pretty reliably.
>>566841050TRUTHRAVE
>DNF Stool will kill soive>Granpoo will kill soive>2XKRAP-O will kill soive>sharten 8 will kill soive>shit farter 6 will kill soive>sharty blood poomina will kill soive>sharty blood poomina II will kill soive>mortal krapbat 1 will kill soive
It's 2xKUSO, thank you very much.
>>566841050truer words have never been spoken
Turns out, it does have a playable story mode.
>>566843580Peni's bros......We won.......
>>566841992>run up throw P and K easily defeat throws? Or does the hitbox of the throw "grab" the hitbox of P and K if you spam it in a obnoxious way?>>566842054>Jam's 2P also gatlings into her 6K, so I dunno what you're complaining about hereI am not complaining. I am asking for advice. I think there's a big difference here. The rest of what you said though is what I was looking for.>>566842753So basically it's very useful on defense especially when they keep getting very near you and you are waiting for a gap or something.
Seeing so much bitching about the patch. Did morons really think they were going to do another balance patch a month after their huge 2.0 shake up? The meta hasn’t even settled yet everyone’s still giving reactionary takes.
>>566845097>So basically it's very useful on defense especially when they keep getting very near you and you are waiting for a gap or something.Correct. You can mash to create gaps, too, and interrupt things, especially with many 2ps.
>>566845917>Did morons really think they were going to do another balance patch a month after their huge 2.0 shake up?Arcsys did say a while that this wasn't a big patch and it was going to be more bug fixes than actual buffs/nerfs. But people seem to forget that for some reason.
i remember that video where hotashi played against a vanquisher millia that just ran up to him and mashed 2ppp, a VANQUISHER millia, who he then taught how to play his character by just telling him to jump at him, and the millia INSTANTLY started taking games off him
>>566845097>P and K easily defeat throws?There is a throw protection in this game which means that for 5 frames after blockstun or after wakeup, you are immune to grabs. Every character in the game has a 5 frame mashing button and in Jam's case is her 2P. This means that if someone is going to grab you, after blockstun or on your wakeup, you will ALWAYS be able to mash 2P and win. 2K would lose, but it's a 1 frame difference so unless they are perfect on their timing, you would probably still win>So basically it's very useful on defenseYes, but you'll often see some characters employ "dash up 2P" neutral or offense. It's usually very quick and is less prone to getting counterhit since there are objectively less frames of startup to get counterhit on
CB 2026 compared to 2025. 42% increase lfg.
Wish strive had more red haired colors like +R and xrd do
i wish i had a red haired ebony goddess to nut inside of every night
I really hate fighting Pot. WarioWare character.
have you ever played guilty gear with your foreskin on the line
>>566845917>meta ever changing when the balance team sticks compensation buffs all over nerf boo-boos

>>566849798idgaf me need milkies

>>566846768you'll take your blonde hair, blue or green eyes, olive skin and red outfit and you'll like it
>>566849798blue eyes don't mean shit in GG anime land nagoriyuki and venom's black asses have them too. There's also that black alexis chick from Xrd's story with green eyes.

>since 2.0 the discord got invaded by an horde of meme spouting circlejerking zoomers>can't get into vc without hearing retarded shit anymore>if you ask for games without vc they ignore you>my only source for high level matches now is rankedpain
>>566848921guilty gear is a warioware game. entire premise is who got the first hit and gets to go into their minigame
>>566851668She's the only girl with colors that make her as dark as her color 2, 5 and 11 like nago and venom who get colors that make THEM so much darker so I'm calling her black my friend. She's the designated black mutt American newcomer.
>>566853219the sheer retardation emanating from my monitor as it displays this post is beyond mortal kenits like you tried to do mental gymnastics, fell flat on your face and then declared them done anyway
my ebony latina abg pawg
>>566853446Hmm all that but you haven't said I am wrong thoughbeit. Also wow I forgot Johnny's green color had skin this fuckin BURNT goddamn
imagine reading that and thinking you're not being called wrong
>>566854201chatgpt is decimating the population's reading abilities
>>566853610Ramlethal is for Leo only
>>566854201>>566855138Post a single strive girl that has a color as close to straight out of fucking africa NIGGERISH as Gio's color 5.
>>566856862god i love when a girl has massive honkers but the art isn't porny and they're just in normal clothes
>>566856862I'm really not sure why you're still trying to insist that you can call gio ebony because one of her alts has dark skinan alt with bright yellowish green hair no lessyour entire premise is stupid and flawed, as I said before
>>566857597My point is if she is one of the base color darkies that can get a near vantablack skin color in an alt like nago and venom then you can call her ebony the same way you can call those two and not be wrong.
>>566858235But you're just wrong. You're wrong and stupid. Nago is very obviously and intended to be black, with black features. Venom is a very dark shade of ambiguous anime brown. Gio is explicitly brazillian and brown-skinned because of it. She's not black.
For the record Venom is also clearly intended to be black, it was only Xrd that lightskinned him.
>>566858235really exaggerating how dark the skin is. venom's default skin tone is darker
>>566858678>xturd was racistexplains its posters...
>>566851668This is how they’re gonna have Chaos by the time strive ends development
>>566859856it's crazy that they are genuinely so dumb that they just can't find a way to actually nerf him so they're going to just increase his clunk and make him less and less fun until people stop playing him.
i want to have mixed babies with giovanna
>>566858531But gio's a burger brazilian (turbo mutt) the same way venom is a big lipped black brit like that other guy said. Plus she has those lips they specifically give to their black characters like Alexis and Augus.
>>566861276AND YET SHE'S BROWN
aba = corny
>>566854075there's a giganigga who cosplays this color
man strive is so fucking bad it's not even worth ranting about. christ. what a waste.
>>566866901skill issue
>>566867025hyper-reductive gameplay design leading to boring, samey rounds sure is a skill issue
>>566862371
>>566866901It’s just boring imo
it's so transparent every time someone is shitting on the game in these threads that they just got their asses handed to them in ranked. literally nothing is keeping you here if you hate the game.
>>566870053absolutely correct soiver. enjoy your garbage made for ppl who don't play fighting games, i'ma go back to other shit.

>>566860119how is he clunkier now? redpill me on HC changes, I thought wider buffer windows meant shitters could play him now
the swag asian:
when you realize you haven't learned a single thing in fucking years
most of the times my games against fags with huge normals like nago or ram are just me running away waiting for a chance to gamble between 6p/iad/or the occasional run low if we moved up a layer. I think playing this way is fucking shit and leaves me dissatisfied. There must be a better way to approach these matchups
>>566877327I call those players "jousters"they pick an approach option to rts with, try their luck win or lose then backdash fullscreen to try again, absolutely miserable to go up against

EX's are actually a lot harder to implement than i thought. i tried doing 25 tension, like +r, but they ended up being too strong and spamable and made you ignore other tension mechanics like rc, daa and overdrive. i tried to make them straight 50 burst, as a risk reward, but then you have resource snowballing, like WA, where you can spam ex into rc or super. it forces the player to lock themselves out of their main defensive tool.i guess i could do the Granblue thing and make them cost 50 tension, with a 25 gain on hit, but then what would be the point of spending an overdrive over and EX move?i could raise the overdrives to 100 tension. but an overdrive would need to be really fucking good to compensate for the high cost. not to mention tension gain would need to be adjusted, leading to more EX spam and ignoring more system mechanics. I dunno what to do. EX's were a mistake.
>>566930451in the granblue comparison, overdrives are 100 meter, so EX are half of that, with 1/4 being refunded on a hit where you didn't cancel into the EX move as in you linked it or threw it out raw in neutral
>>566930570I actually never noticed that, I guess I never played long enough. But basically they're also 25 in granblue but the resource is stretched out a bit for limited use. i still have mixed feelings on spending 25 on such strong options. Maybe I could make them require 50 tension but spend 25. i dunno.
>>566930451make them cost 33% and add a little secondary divider to the bars to show the breakpoint
>>566932036like this?
When the FUCK does this maintenance end?

Everyone should eat an apple before going on ranked, this is the fruit equivalent of a panacea
When's the rank reset?
What rank does the "real" game start, cuz I made it to platinum with button mashing and wake-up super and feel like I've learned nothing.
>>566959520Probably Diamond II or Vanquisher.
>>566959274I am eating an apple right this very second because (you) told me to I take your apple and raise you one black coffee
>>566959274Worth it if it keeps Faust away for a day.
>>566959520the real game starts here
>>566959274Nahhhhhhh bananans are better
>>566959520Depends on what your standards are.The "real" real game, like, with actually good players, probably above 1700 DR.But just by ranked scrub standards, you know, people who play a lot, then probably just above 1500 DR.
how pathetic it is that i have two thousand hours and can't get into vanquisher?i thought i was tournament material already by entering celestial regularly
>>566959520Depends on what you mean by that. There's a pretty big gap within the Plat ranks; Diamond is a little more condensed because people can't fall out of Vanquisher, and as others mentioned there's a big skill spread within Vanq as well.
>>566961336Quite. But it's also normal to not really improve past a certain point if you don't put effort specifically into improving. I mostly play eff gees to pass time or chill so with also around two thousand hours I'm not much better, peaked at staying int he 1600s range and after coming back I've been stuck for this patch I've just been stuck in the 1500s
...can JR aba make you block something, untransform, and still be plus, or did I just mistime my button horribly and get hit my some mega fake gay shit?
>BP can't be purchased on Steam yet>no progress for playing matches; weekly / dailys only>pass is only for ~40 days not the rest of the season like it seemed it would beI've seen some people say it's the same as GB but man that's a let down.

>>566961336i went to my first local a few years ago cuz I thought celestial meant something and got absolutely shitcanned. like a training dummy that bursted once randomly. fightan gamers are nuts
So how dead is HC now? I read the notes and it sounds like focus is useless now?
>>566965369man what's the point then? I have already spent a shitload of time trying to become goated at the game for what?
I haven't been in the soivin mood lately doods
>>566959520I've always fucking known that not being able to super is what's holding me back and that getting a third of my opponent's health with a get out of jail free card is the difference maker because my opponents bought good controllers
So anon, did you already hit your legally mandated weekly challenge Charged Dust?I tried it as oki on a bunch of people until it eventually worked
>>566965327cause its spookythat's the reasonxhe's always had weird voice filtersyou can say it's because in lore zhe's supposed to be a stupidly powerful gear second to justice, and as part of xhis bit of transcending past humanity, but the real reason is just that xhe was a boss character that they wanted to sound spooky
Where can you buy the Blazing Pass I'm trying to buy it in-game but I'm just being redirected to Steam's Home Store page.
>>566968173It's an issue for now. Arcsys already noticed and trying to fix it.

>girl
>Short story with Unika all but says Unika has feelings for Bridget.
I remember quite well that about 3 years ago when Snake Eyez won Texas Showdown, Potemkin was widely considered a bottom 5 character. With 2.0 and the previous patch Potemkin got no joke about 20 nerfs, yet hes still actually one of the better characters in the game, maybe even top 10 currently. How was old Potemkin so bad compared to now?
>>566977103it's just implications and teasing, same shit we already had before, cry about it when they show the two actually fucking or something (they won't) (actually they might, them having done that is kinda the whole reason Sin and Unika exist...)
>>566977103shackling bridget to unika is the only way they could consider keeping him relevant to the story so they now have an excuse to use him more going forward
>>566977103The ship must sail.
i have a flaw: i never use throws defensively. Only for pressure. Not even on wakeup but i guess that's ok cause no one misses meaty at higher ranks.Defensively i'm too afraid of whiffing it, even more now without prc. How do i fix this? When it's ok to use it?
>>566977791Her. Jam even calls her a waitress in this short story.>>566978071I'm a (mostly) het tranny so I always have shipped Bridget with a guy primarily Sol
https://x.com/GUILTYGEAR_PR/status/2054759131685519411Is ArcSys calling out Leffen?
I feel like the game itself might be lowkey set to call Unika players monkeys.I've noticed my Technique rating with her after any match is always pretty low, even if I convert everything and only optimals. Maybe it's the game's way of calling the character braindead... My other theory is that it counts whiffed 6Hs against the rating.
>>566978325The Baikenfartsniffer policy amendment..

I only ever play versus with my real life friends, or mash in lobbies with people I've known for years, if not decades. Do I even play the game in a way that would let me unlock the battle pass rewards?
>>566994003Can't you just use your fake digital money to buy them battle pass content, or do you actually have to play games? I've never done a battle pass.
>>566994003if you do it once a week at least then maybe, but if you play very, very casually, do you even care about the battle pass rewards? if you don't pay the only two worth noting are a UI skin, and a skin that gives Sol his Order-Sol weapon

>>567002004hmmmnyes, very true, but you neglected to mention the difference between "irukasan" and "IRUKA-SAAAAAAAAAAAAANNN" so I can't help but question your expertise here.

Baiken is the first AI generated fighting game character
Someone give me a character to play in Strive, I came back for 2.0 after not playing for years and have not clicked with my usual characters (Pot and Sin). I have the base game and season 1 and 2 DLC.
>>566930451>guess i could do the Granblue thing and make them cost 50 tension, with a 25 gain on hit, but then what would be the point of spending an overdrive over and EX move?this was actually an issue ArcSoy ran into during the first grub beta. it's why they made SBAs and SSBAs interact with the BP system the +25% refund works better in Granblue because you can evade ultimate skills, so the 50% is just gone. you could experiment with IB or IBFD negating the refundI'm just impressed you actually realised that was a problem on your own

Just wanna see if anyone is worth using with what I have now.>>567008531I heard that yeah. It's not even about strength or anything, just Pot doesn't FEEL the same. Don't know how to explain it.
>>567006168i've been reviewing a lot of games with EX moves recently and the common trend I see is that they get prioritized over supers, or other system mechanics. not only for their utility but for their cheap cost too. but i don't like that they're mostly 25% combo gates to give specials any form of utlity. I'm trying to find a balance where one system mechanic doesn't overshadow the other. the main idea is giving supers more combo utility outside of damage, and making the EX moves more like unique actions, so you can do something actually different, instead of direct upgrades of existing movespersona actually does the refund thing too, and it works well with rc, but it's still the "issue" that i don't understand of the meter cost being so minor that the move should just work that way in the first place.
>>566930451Are you really looking at the game shoving meter down your throat for existing, the game's damage being balanced on a razor's edge of becoming a ToDer, and thinking "Hmm, EXs are the problem"
>>566982958I made it through without fighting a single Axl. Shitload of Unikas though.
>>567013994not intentionally. but the idea of having always spend 25 meter just for a move to function properly is kind of lame, when the move could work like that normally, and it could be spent on something else.

I particularly always found it odd. from when I was a newb to 300 hours later, to me it's still weird, to not straight up call it a shit mechanic like Staggerit's weird in +r too, but I don't actually know jack shit about that game so I can't talk about it. it has a corny mspaint starry sky background
>>567044206it is a holdover mechanic from older games but it serves a bigger purpose in strive actually. The screen transition knockdown from finishing a homing dust combo is actually plus unlike meterless wallbreak. If you block a DP or super, using charged dust to punish can be optimal.
>>567005702Always was.
>>567014790This is why good games don't have EX moves, and just make their specials not shit to begin with. It's not an issue that can be fixed.

EX characters when?
What did Axl mean by this?
>>567053854This man hits you and he says 'yay'
The amount of people I run into who clearly think they can't actually challenge Ky in conventional, layer 1 neutral is so absurd.Reminder that his actual neutral buttons are not actually great, his strength is in coverage to force people to play that basic neutral against him while he's free to do whatever bullshit.His f.S is now objectively one of the worst in the entire game. His 5H and 6H are both the most whiff punishable things on the planet. His 2S has decent range but he can't confirm off normal hits at long range. I'm not saying this makes him bad but it's fucking crazy how many people will literally spend the entire game trying to skip neutral or spend the whole game in the air or whatever and then complain about how they can't get past Lightning Strike.
Is Axel Dhalsim or Billy.
I was killing some time in training mode doing random bullshit 100% risc combos while waiting for someone to show up, what's wrong with my ender? why is 5H pushing be back by like 5 character lengths

This is a stupid ass move. You always lose against this if used as a frame trap. Only way you can defeat it is a DP or Super.
my pressure is completely randomized, i don't even think about what i'm doing, i just make sure to not leave gaps too big and never ever repeat the same sequence twice in a row (except when i find a big weakness in the opponent to exploit). This served me well and carried me to vanquisher and above. Is it a bad habit?
>>567067471the stupidist part to me is that this fat ass mid is a low
>>56706859817F startup fat ass low that has a disjointed hitbox and can frame trap anything except for DPs and Supers.
