>>491658502>Are you kidding? when you were playing ky that was the only bit of entry space I could get. if anything i am more convinced that H sword toss is not as expensive as people say. j.H takes so long it's useless even equipped, and it's very easy to space yourself properly to be out of f.S range or you can low profile or jump H. also the special where she swings the sword in a cross, the higher sword is her H sword.What do you mean by entry space and is it worth getting stun dippered during your own blockstring? That sentence looks mean spirited but I'm genuinely asking>most of my damage came from S > Rock and S sword is the "don't do it ever unless you're panicking (and if you're panicking it's probably an even worse idea than normal)" higher sword toss. under normal conditions (i.e. not drunk and panicking/tilted) it's rare to throw S sword outside of a combo. i will agree that throwing S sword is usually a bad idea unless it's a hard read or reaction to something.Most of your damage came from random hits that you didn't convert fully because you were lacking 236H to lead to a wallbreak in the cornerThere were so many situations where I was in the corner and just DP'd>the real reason H sword toss is so bad though is so many characters have a way to low profile it that they're likely to mash out whenever. but even then, either I hold stun dipper and have to block some wack ass mixup (from Microsoft on my analog stick), 2k and hope for a trade, or do literally anything else and have even higher chances of dying instantlyI just think you're wrong about your character and it's starting to frustrate me that I can't communicate why you're so wrong at such a basic level

How am I supposed to use this to pressure if it can always be jabbed awayit is a minimum requirement to be at absolute max range to even try but then I'm left with a grand +3 to do what exactly? can I just have a good frame trap special that's not total bunk on block thanks

breadly sin
>>491659587>What do you mean by entry spacemaking time and space to approach by forcing the enemy to adopt a reactive role; suppression or something. not zoning as such but similar i guess> is it worth getting stun dippered during your own blockstring?no, but I've been drinking so I keep forgetting that stun dipper isn't 9001 relative years startup like it used to be in p4a and my moves aren't 0f fullscreen garbage like in p4a if you watch my replays you'll see a lot of bad habits from that game. also ram is -1000000 on everything but rock, beam, and sword toss. as soon as i hit on block, that's it, it's over>random hits that you didn't convert fully because you were lacking 236Hno, i lacked the physical dexterity to dauro consistently. anything you can convert with H sword and still hit after without being near the wall, dauro is the objectively better option in almost every case, i'm pretty sure. better scaling and a completely vertical launch. i feel even my volume of sword toss is pretty restrained and maintain that either when on the attack or near the wall, throwing swords evne more willy-nilly would result in just picking them back up to sustain pressure or instantly dying because they were dodged. if i could dash cancel even half as well as I used to, which wasn't even consistent, it would easily waste enough time to at least sustain pressure on time alone let alone corner carry>There were so many situations where I was in the corner and just DP'dagain, chalk it up to the henney but i did backdash and throw another sword in the corner or rock midscreen fearing a DP plenty of times. it usually resulted in a block, me being out of range to sustain further pressure, and getting got>>491660675dont most of the p5 cast use gunswouldnt it just be 9 HCs battling in the least hype matches of all time
>>491660438@_yszlr is a HC account. He probably just thought the piece would look better with white
>>491660747no. you play bedman. your role in life is to suffer
>>491661057I mean if you're gonna boil down your analysis to "I was sloshed/I don't even play this game" I think you probably shouldn't come in here and offer bad opinions about how to play a characterLike I've barely played s3 and I beat you in a ft5 with Sol and then 15 games in a row with Ky. If getting adopted by a floor 8 Ky isn't a warning sign that the way you're thinking or approaching the game is flawed idk what is. You can play or mash as much as you like of course but please don't say stuff like it's good to throw swords in neutral because it's just incorrect
what character is a good replacement for may?

I'm new to guilty gear since my friend bought the game for me. He decided for face me 1v1 even though I've never played this game before and I got smoked 20x in a row. What is the most dishonest, broken, low skill/high impact character I can play to beat my friend?
>>491662354slayer
>>491662354Nagoriyuki or Elphelt if you have no fighting game experience periodSlayer if you have a minuscule amount of fighting game experience
>>491662354When in doubt, go for 900 yen tier.
>>491662354You're not beating him.
>>491661595ok ok I'll pretend I even said throwign swords is "good" and say that it is merely "acceptable or sometimes necessary to throw low sword" and only because the H sword is not used often outside of combos (and if you tag someone with it you're about to pick it back up or have the time for it to regen)also I took some games off you doing it, and even against your ky most of my loss was due to bad blocking and the matchup being disadvantageous. keep in mind that I can't just whip out a DP to invalidate pressure, and have no real option that isn't super telegraphed. my pressure is interactive and has limited ammo. and I fucking rinsed you when you played HAPPY FUCKING CHAOS. literally all you had to do was push the H button and block mids and yet got caught by swords all the damn time in that set
>>491662354Sol Badguy. Top tier defense and offense
>>491662354can you do a dp
>>491662354slayer and johnny are the biggest frauds in this dogshit game. neither take any amount of skill and you can quite literally win by button mashing with both because they have the best buttons in the game and it's not even close
>>491662637It's not necessary to throw swords outside the corner. I'm gonna go look up a high level Ram replay and if SQ does H sword any time he can't jail into the explosion I will eat a sock (not really)>you took some games off me doing itNot on my main lol, I was mostly messing around with HC because I had literally never played him beforeI'm pretty sure after ten minutes in training mode with HC I would wash you anyway. That's how bad your game is
>>491662920Keep your ego in check
>>491663360Do you wanna run it back?
>>491662920>I'm gonna go look up a high level Ram replay and if SQ does H sword any timehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuvBi8DlLHw&t=1m30sstart digging in that laundry hamper nigga
>>491663425I said keep your ego in check little boy.
>>491663543oh also as a bonus note that he gets teh hit and immediately goes into dauro, not h sword.>no, i lacked the physical dexterity to dauro consistently. anything you can convert with H sword and still hit after without being near the wall, dauro is the objectively better option in almost every case, i'm pretty sure. better scaling and a completely vertical launch.even near the wall he used dauro instead of h sword.
>>491663543>he throws the sword in the cornerWow would you look at that
>>491663771>instantly gets DP'd>picks the sword back up after getting a hit themselves even once trannisho is done DPing like a monkeyH sword is free as in beer, there is nothing wrong with using it. even near the wall dauro is a more important and effective combo tool. h sword toss is good, reasonably fast for a projectile (absolutely blazing for anything on ram) and is plus. in the same bit of pressure you even see he throws S sword, which is normally inadvisable, and does so for burst bait, not to "jail with the explosion"post socks
>>491663758Why are you trying to reframe my argumentThrowing swords in neutral is badDon't do it
>>491664542When you're not in the corner (IE in neutral) h.sword is a whopping +3 on blockThat's bad and you are bad. Do you really want another first to ten where I beat the DOGSHIT out of you?
Tell you what I'll even play the mirror
I wanted to downplay argue Slayer today but then I remembered that I accidentally teleport dashed through WWA on roundstart so nevermind
>another people think slayer is strong episodeJust learn the matchup.
>be anji/chipp/baiken>reach 50 meter>instantly attempt overheadlmfao you retards are so incredibly predictable
>>491665034I do this on Baiken because it Just Works (TM)
>>491664559my argument is that H sword is cheap, so if you need to cover an approach it's a totally valid option>>491664883you're the one that said you were gonna look up some SQ tape and confirm it and there you go, the #1 ram using H sword to cover an approach freely in an especially much more dangerous situation than long range neutral. right up in sol's face just tossing that shit. it's almost like HS isn't a fantastic button and if you throw the H sword and hit, you either eat a counter and it no longer matters how many swords you have or get to do a combo with enough corner carry/timer scamming where you'll get it back
>>491665034You left out Johnny.
>>491665136Ft10 Ram mirror right nowIf you win I will acknowledge throwing swords in neutral is goodIf I win you will acknowledge that you simply don't know what you're talking about
>>491665034nigga what else is chipp gonna do command grab? lmao
>>491664975sure. i still got rum left. ec37 again? it wont prove anything, we've got tape of SQ doing it, but mirrors are fun and any excuse to play is a good one>>491665251two ft5s. i'm on the cheap stuff and a little nauseous i might need a halftime break
>>491665331You have tape of SQ throwing a sword in the cornerWhich is not what the discussion is about at allAnd yes I'm omw
>saturday night>no lobby
>>491665446I can put up a lobby if people want to spectate this ft10
>>491665252He could throw are use his great speed and buttons to whiff punish or his great pressure to frame trap.
>>491665012Just cuz of you I'm playing Slayer if there's a lobbyjk I will play him anyway since I love being carried
>>491665446I was gonna make a lobby, but after looking through the thread, nah. I'm good.
>>491665421i dont agree to your terms btw, this is just an exhibition matchi maintain that sword toss is *sometimes* appropriate. it's not a GOOD move, but H sword is cheap enough to throw away and HS, 6H, and the high hit of doubleswords are not important enough done raw that you will really miss them if you throw H sword uselessly and are without it for a minute. either you get hit and comboed and it's back by the time you're done dying, or you hit on block and can pick it up or waste enough time that it regenerates naturally>>491665584come to EC37 we'll make it a party
>>491665846Bro you don't get to dictate terms in a ft10 lmao
>>491665846A /ggg/ picnic at the park huh.

Why should I learn all of Slayer's minigames when I can just dodge him

idk whats goin on with my internet. i'd like to finish the set but shit's flickering/spiking. you got hit by several H swords and every tag on my was because of bad blocking, drops, or counters. i maintain my position
>>491667578Getting "hit" by the h sword toss in neutral DOESN'T MATTER. It didn't win you a single game. I THRASHED you on your OWN FUCKING CHARACTER that you're still pretending you know how to play for some reason. I don't see why you're even pretending to have a valid opinion after this. I would genuinely be too ashamed to show my face in the thread
>>491667785i guess SQ doesn't know either
>>491667396>knowing basic spacing requires mystic communionHoly shit lmaoDo you think whiff punishing is a dark art? Does getting shimmied blow your fucking mind?This post is proof that Strive players have no fundies.
>>491667098I hate Johnny oki more desu
>>491667846How can you pretend to know what you're talking about after I beat your ass? How can you type "u-using sword toss in neutral is good" after you did it multiple times in the set and I BRUTALLY MAULED you ON YOUR OWN FUCKING CHARACTER.
>>491666310what is alice doing here
>>491667785ram schizo is a lower dimensional entity that does not follow human concepts like logic or self-awareness, he will go back to posting about fighter jets or some shit to continue feeling like he is smart
>>491668476Is this guy some kind of thread personality? What happened to Gagler or Gogeta or Ragger who would police retards like this?
>>491667865You're just being disingenuous. The point is that slayers neutral requires you to know the spacing of his weird neutral tools very well and that is the annoying minigame I don't want to play or lab, which was the original point you pretend to not get.
>>491668179you should continue to post this image in every new thread. I think that would be based and redpilled of you.
>>491668097>>491668476>>491668579congratulations, you beat up a drunken furfag. it's still a lv5 projectile with speed similar to your own that you yourself also usedI was intentionally throwing as many as possible there to make it funny, but it's not a waste of a move slot> "u-using sword toss in neutral is good"my first post read >i play ram badly and i dont think ive ever had a case where i thought "damn i wish i had my swords back faster">i've definitely thrown the wrong sword a ton but usually you can do enough bullshit on offense that letting it float back can happen naturally if you arent a moron and only a couple characters have high sword whiff on them standing. i'm pretty sure low sword is at least safe if you're not point blank if not outright letting you continue offenseand in response to someone asking "would letting ram retrieve her swords with a new special be good" no less, not "are ram's sword tosses good"idk how you can be offended by someone saying "a +3 projectile is mostly safe and has its uses" but keep seething
>>491668601Knowing your opponent's range is extremely useful in every matchup, anon.
>>491668579Yes, unfortunately. He is an autistic schizo who hates himself and desperately wants us to hate him too. He samefags regularly, always insulting himself. The ironic part is none of us hate him nearly as much as he hates himself. We just pity him.

>>491668686Kill yourself you retarded nigger.
>>491668686A +3 projectile that causes some of your moves to be demonstrably worse, you fucking clownIf you wanna use the set (that I OBLITERATED YOU in) as evidence there was a point where you dropped combo continuations because your 5H whiffed after fS. You really need to just listen to your better and shut the fuck up. The reason I'm so indignant is that you're a garbage player who's acting like he knows shit when it's literally the reason you're losing to me (ON YOUR OWN FUCKING CHARACTER).>>491668909That's unfortunate.>>491668937That is also unfortunate but frankly I can see it
>>491668686you went 0-3 and plugged lmao
>>491668579>What happened to Gagler or Gogeta or Ragger who would police retards like this?as i said he is a lower dimensional entity, we've tried but you cannot interact with him in the way you can a normal human. there is nothing anyone can actually do to curb his bizarre behavior besides explain it clearly so people stop engaging

>>491669150Got it, I'll stop responding thenI thought I was talking to just a normal player who was kinda bad, I didn't realize this was like a whole thing
>>491668916finna mash 2-
>>491669085>A +3 projectile that causes some of your moves to be demonstrably worse, you fucking clownH sword isn't used a lot ouside of combos so the risk:reward isn't as skewed as it looks. i lost because i cant block for shit and push buttons where I shouldn't. for the most part you have ondo for the range where HS matters (and combos where HS doesn't), aggresso soup uses the H sword for its higher hit that isn't as useful as the lower hit, and I said from the start that > you can do enough bullshit on offense that letting it float back can happen naturally if you arent a moron"aren't a moron" would include refraining from throwing it full screen against someone downbacking like I tend to, and would be more like SQ's play where you're close to the corner and can expect to sustain pressure to go in and pick it up, or are explicitly calling something out and can expect the corner carry to pick it up or your combo/pressure to last long enough that you get it back naturally. i never said to just yeet that shit from fullscreen raw whenever you have it, I just do that myself because I am a moron

He calls himself nigger, furnigger, furnig, etc.He does this because he's a mulatto and has a complex about it.He's also known to make wildly off-topic but otherwise innocuous posts about his hobbies (soldering, beekeeping, chocolate making, and fighter jets) and then reply 10+ times calling himself a nigger.
>>491669561What is even the point of respond to me? I don't respect your opinions because you've demonstrated to me that you're dogshit and apparently everyone else in the thread thinks you are too(?)
If you throw swords outside of combos you know will either wallbreak or kill, you're garbage. Full stop.

>>491695271dragon punch.
>>491695271
>>491695271DP is shorthand for dragon punch. Nowadays, it's used to refer to almost all meterless reversals. They usually have a 623X input. There are a couple other meterless reversals like Parry or Flashkick. A flashkick is a charge input [2]8

do players above 2050 elo actually exist? or does the elo site just make up A HUNDRED PEOPLE above 2180 elo, WHICH IS LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE, considering how volatile this game isi never fight anyone who is remotely close to that rank
>>491700723I think that says more about you sub 2k elo bro...
Sol, Ky, Nago, Zato, Chipp, and Leo still need new moves.

>>491690285Anji is just the victim of Katano's hate after being BTFO by Dry-Ace. Now Anji is constantly the victim of several humiliation rituals which include schizo changelogs that change him altogether every single patch including changes that go nowhere and serve no purpose like 6H
>>491702190didn't zato get his new move already? the shitty shadow swap thing?
>>491695271A dragon punch is an upwards-moving special move that's invincible on startup. It's sometimes applied to moves are similar, like Gio's 623S, which is only invincible above the knees. It also refers to the 623 motion, as most DPs use that input. A flash kick is a DP done with a charge input. Leo has the only one in Strive.
My dad works for ArcSys, Leo will get a slap on the wrist change and both May and Slayer will be buffed, the rest of the cast will just get silly shuflearound quality of life changes and nothing of importance

People seem to be around, anyone interested in a Strive lobby? I can't promise to put up too much of a fight myself but I am at least well rested (minus the alcohol debuff, no I'm not the furry).
>>491703373I would play but I'm OCE and have shit ping to pretty much the rest of the entire world
>>491702810new utility/update for an old move. i wish they would do the same for some other characters not on the base roster.

>>491709960Xrd actually has a very good tutorial and mission for teaching you the game along with basic combos for your character, it's UI is clear and tells you more information that strive so you have a better idea of what's going on, and it's dustloop documentation is on-par with strive. So it's not as hard to get into as people act like it is, you don't have to learn everything about every character at once. There's even less characters than Strive now (even if they are more unique so it can feel like there's more specific things to learn for each matchup).It's a surprisingly welcoming game for beginners while not being overly simplified to the point that your skills won't transfer over to other guilty gear games/fighting games.
>>491709960BASED.
>>491711059Having more resources available doesn't mean it's easy to get into. You can watch YouTube videos on how to fix up your Accord as much as you want but actually taking a wrench to it is a whole different beast>It's a surprisingly welcoming game for beginnersI don't even know how to reply to this in seriousness
>>491710762is johnny allowed
>>491711518yes, so long as you answer MU questions I ask
>>491711412this nigga can't do his own oil changes even with youtube showing howtruly the strive audienceseriously though basically all the routine shit and like half the actual repairs are easy to do yourself with nothing but a socket set, a jack/stand and a 20$ obd reader
>>491711059why do i keep seeing this "xrd teaches you footsies and transferable skills" memexrd was mocked for like eight years straight for being a get one knockdown run looping setplag kusoge with neutral skips out the wazoo
>>491711815I do change my own oil but I wouldn't fuck with a timing problem or my starter as examples
>>491711879>"xrd teaches you footsies and transferable skills" memeJust because it does it better than Strive
>>491712048strive is basically guilty gear: street fighter dough
>>491711996replacing a starter is easy as fuck, you just unbolt the old one and bolt on the new onenot always comfortable to get your arm in to the bolts but it's a simple job and hard to fuck up
>>491712179strive is shit dough
just noticed that whenever i'm fighting a "better" player in strive it doesn't actually feel like they're using the character better than other people do, just that the fight feels a lot less fair.like if a mid sol hits you, it's not over and he might drop the combo, but if a good sol hits you he just gets more damage / favorable oki. that's it, no actual conceivable difference in skill
>>491712228I had to pull out part of my exhaust to reach the starter in the first place
>>491712250i think it's fun personally
How do I get good at dashing in +R without a dash macro?
>>491712571It's just something you get used to with consistency. The more you do it, the less you'll notice you're doing it.
>>491710098Ky is better
>>491711879There's a specific type of poster who usually browses a specific subreddit on here who has convinced themselves that Xrd is some kind of pure Platonic ideal of a fighting game instead of the game it actually isThis happens to every fighting game player with their favorite game to a certain degree, idealizing specific systems that click with you personally, but in this case it's just people putting a game on a pedestal because people don't care enough to argue against it
>>491712278you don't think their decision making in neutral is different at all?you don't think their defense is different at all?you don't think they have better spacing at all?honestly sounds like a you issue. if you don't recognize why and when you got hit/outplayed, it'll be a lot harder to improve.
>>491713706This is me with Blazblue, minus the plebbit and pedestal part. I know what kind of game it is and it isnt honest. I just find it funny there are /still/ people thinking XX-Xrd era GG teaches fundamentals. Anime players have been shat on for having 0 fundamentals, neutral skills, antsy on defense and training lab boars instead of actually playing the game and you get to hear these people preach about transferrable skills
why does slayer have no bad matchups?
>>491711518My main issue is my own execution; I really don't have the mental acuity to focus on more than not doing the same thing every time and hitting my buttons properly. I still can't get away from 22RC on everything and trying to [5D] after it even if I want to 66RC->CL HVV or 22RC in the corner into a c.s->jc ... setup. It just takes to much out of me focusing on my own positioning and trying to defend in general.
>>491711879yeah it's honestly ridiculous. i think xrd is a better game than strive but strive teaches fundamentals better without a doubt
>>491715061I'm as big a Slayer hater as anyone, but he does have bad MUs. Granted, it's only like 3 MUs
>>491715068sounds like you need to practiceor take a break and come back to relearn some muscle memory.
>pick up Asuka>2 days of nothing but losing>finally won ONCE todayIts literally nothing special but its still something.
>>491715230>sounds like you need to practicePlaying for only an hour every couple days while still learning (like sub 10F learning) isn't enough and I know that.. I just struggle to find the motivation to play this over other games when I know I'm into the slower progress band. My head tells me I need to play tower more to have fairer fights than I'll get most of the time in lobbies. A chance to practice my own setups and not get 2 touched , etc.I keep hoping that something will click but that's copium and I need to put in the work if I want to get better. I just wish I didn't have so high to climb before I could play anywhere but tower basically.
>>491712179Strive is pretty grounded, but the small stages and big hitboxes mean a lot of players get away with ignorant button mashing. It doesn't force you to learn spacing the way Street Fighter does, at least not until you're in the upper half of celestial in terms of skill level. However, if you know spacing, it's good at every skill level.
is johnny's mfc dash into grab reactable? i feel like i'm always late on the tech and constantly get thrown
>>491716432don't forget 6p just RPSing people in neutral regardless of proper or improper spacing
>>491716587Yeah, that's a big factor as well.
>>491716583I don't know. But I think Johnny's step dash needs more end lag before he can dash again. A character with his attack range shouldn't be able to step 3 times to full screen in less than 2 seconds. What's the point of being unable to dash block if you never have to worry about it?
>>491716583Yes it's reactable with throw for the average joe. If you start drinking water until your piss becomes clear and you stop touching you dick so much, you can react with cS.
>end lag
>>491717406Strive is a party game so I will use party game terminology.
>>491717119>complain when his dash is garbage>complain even harder when his dash is mid
Why can't we up b rc anymore?
>sol can hit both a heckin' tomahawk AND a mama mia???>please ban this character!
>>491717725It shouldn't be mid. It should be bad.
>>491717931having anything other than a traditional run in strive is already pretty dogshit unless you're gio or aba
>>491718051Johnny doesn't need to run. He can hit you mid screen.
went to locals today and some faggot slayer player kept talking like a yugioh character throughout every match
>>491718586i went to a local that was also hosting smash and some retard smash baby was doing jutsu hand signals whenever he'd get a ko (or a stock, as the babies would say)i wanted to break his jaw
>>491718586sounds basedhttps://youtu.be/om5yYcg1lT4?si=KvtlHGf6YC5bceMd
>>491718765this retard i played against said some shit to me like "heh, that was pretty cool of you too bad i'm cooler" before dropping his last horizon combo
who should i play if i wanna pick up a character and get decent results with within a short time period?
>>491718976yeah i woulda thrown hands
>>491719006slayer, may, nago, ram or elphelt
>>491710762Closed. GG Johnny, shame nobody else came around.
>>491719006sol or slayer

>>491719006If you have decent execution, Solif you have below average execution, Ky
>>491711879A game can have gay oki and instill fundamentals. It is still a poking game at the end of the day. ???
>>491721190no it isn't
+R is better than Xrd.
strive s3 was more of an oki simulator than Xrd ong
>>491722963Nah, it is. Else Strive designers would not call Strive mahjong
>>491723786I don't give a shit what the retard jap developers say regarding Strive. XRD doesn't teach you shit about traditional fundamentals and it is absolutely not a poking game.
>>491724212It does. Almost every fighter does. Read Machabo's doc. Muh oki
>>491725392Sure, you could argue they all teach some sort of fundamentals in some way. Look, I love MVC3 and I think XRD is a great game. Neither of them teach you traditional fundamentals. Neither are poking games, either. Stop being a retard please.
>>491713706who is this post about
>>491725542>traditional fundamentalsNow you are entering into buzzword territory. Everything Machabo covers in his doc is trad fundies. The game still revolves around poking mindgames and not smash items
>>491727715
>>491726295>Now you are entering into buzzword territory.Nah you just don't know what you're talking about so of course the word traditional feels like a buzzword.>The game still revolves around poking mindgames and not smash itemsThe poking in XRD is miniscule compared to the oki, setups, movement, and games mechanics that don't translate to a majority of other fighting games.

>>491680145This but Ky
Goldlewis and Millia trannies dropped counterplay videos of their respective characters this week but I am still gonna bitch about the MUs
>"Returning to the devil you know." It's a phrase rooted in the idea that people often prefer familiar discomforts or challenges over the uncertainty of new solutions. The full saying is usually, "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't," meaning it's often easier to stick with a known but unpleasant situation than to risk facing unknown consequences by making a change.It highlights a behavior where someone repeatedly goes back to a task, habit, or situation they dislike, even when they know there are better options available. It could be due to fear of the unknown, a lack of confidence in new approaches, or simply because the person feels stuck in a pattern they're familiar with.This concept can be applied in various situations, such as a person who continually returns to a job they hate because they're afraid of starting over somewhere new, or someone who keeps using an inefficient method to complete a task because it's what they're used to, despite knowing there are better alternatives. It’s about the comfort in familiarity, even when that familiarity is unpleasant.I am a slave to Strive.
>>491736341This but guilty gear in general, I just want to leave and go do something else
You niggers are really melodramatic about not having the self-control to not play a game you don't feel like playing.
>>491737980But there's nothing else to play...
>>491716587you're also pretty much obligated to do it the way that a lot of people have gigantic buttons that they'll just run up and force you to guess on if you do absolutely nothing, never adapting to bait it
>>491736070Link to Millia counterplay? I hate that bitch even if I always end up winning against her
>>491740070yeah, massive buttons with no recovery feels bad
>>491738695That's the thing, Strive has been successful for so long and has survived both troons and technical issues out of the ass that made the game almost unplayable FOR YEARS just because its the only half decent fighting game out there, everything else is just trash. And the funny thing is that Strive is not even that good, is just that everyone else is so fucking bad.

>>491741545>no recoveryunless you play gio, chipp or K mappa

>>491744028Just have one of your simps make it for you
>>491712228No one cares, retard. Only cucks work on their own car.
>>4917277155k crow isn't a true string you can jump it. also you could mash on it if you didn't fd the 5K brainlessly
>>491745554cant test aim it to catch jumps
>>491742478I feel TL and UNI2 are fine but are absolutely bogged down either by a garbage release or garbage mechanics. The issues were later fixed, but it was far too late. Strive was incredibly lucky for the release window it was in, and is really a lot of people's first fighting game. Its basically a smaller scale SF4 for zoomers during the pandemic years.
>>491746098yeah that's why it's better to not fd the 5k and mash on it
>>491746162People bitch about Strive but UNI2 has some phenomenally unfun top tiers to fight against desuCarmine and Yuzu make me want to blow my fucking brain out
>>491746420how fast of a mash does it have to be to
>>491746594i'm pretty sure most characters can straight up f.s in-between 5k crowbut if you really wanna know you should lab it yourself
>>491746526I actually stopped playing UNI2 for a while after the Yuzu buffs. I dont know what Kamone was thinking. Thrn again, it couldnt be worse than CLR and [st] Vat atleast, but I get it.
>>491747330I hate Carmine more than Yuzu but if you play a character who has shorter range I can definitely see the other perspective being validThe other problem that UNI has and Strive doesn't is the playerbase one, where there's so few people in the total pool that getting good matches with players your skill level can be extremely frustrating. But that's every anime game basically
>>491728679Spotted the Jack-O player lmao
>>491744767>Hello? AP Productions?
does this really need less recovery frames than Faust 6P.
>>491750790Johnny's technical so it's fair. This move alone is more technical than Faust's entire kit.
>>491745554>game teaches you to FD to get out of pressure>NOOOOO NOT LIKE THATDumbass game. Uselessass mechanics. Just give FD more pushback. I'm so sick of this shit.
>>491751147>mechanic requires nuanced and it's not always the best decision>noooooo i have to use my brain save me niggerman
I cant believe I still choked the challenge by winning 2 sets 2-1
>>491751562That's the Celestial challenge classic.
>>491750790why is beak driver so shit in comparison to mist finer
>>491751147More pushback wouldn't solve the issue though, in fact it would only exaggerate it against chars like Testament. You'd put yourself in even worse spacing traps.
I want Elphelt's point blank projectile to put my opponent in blockstun AND shoot through for a ricochet... But that's way too strong.
>>491752609wtf
>>491751882Its because of muh followups. If it didnt have the ability to do a strong followup option you'd see the same dumb as shit properties it had in Xrd. Then again, buffing it wouldnt hurt now that DP>step is gone
>>491754906youtuber luck buff
>>491754948I know, I'm being disingenuous on purpose bc I want to use it in neutral even when I know I shouldn't
Let's see how LK's May is shaping up.>Last VOD on his stream is of him playing ABA for 85% of his playtime.Yeah. The May is really shaping up...
>>491755625Top 5 character for the entire game's life btw
>>491755625the fact that anyone cares about this loser is the most mind boggling thing.
I still love you, LK. I know you will get a big titty french gf in Nice next year.
I'm sick of being stuck in 10 years of end lag after using stun edge.
I'm sick of getting washed despite being godlike.
>>491757162He sounds smart to the layman of the FGC. Some people can't grasp frame data. When you see his gameplay after some experience, you see how in his own head he is.
+R is so hard. How do I make it easier?
>>491760132Mod the audio spiking out.
>>491760132The hardest thing about +R isn't the game, it's that it doesn't have many bad players left. You'd probably have had an easy enough time getting into it when it first got rollback because a lot of people were trying it out, but it's not so easy anymore.
>>491760330Not really the “good” players I found online were just able to overcome the execution barrier and run basic setups. Nothing Claytontier.
>>491760330I wouldn't say it doesn't have any bad players left, it's just that no one uses ranked so it's random if you'll get a guy who routinely wins tournaments or a guy who got the game last tuesday>>491760132What exactly are you struggling with?

I'm kinda dumb and I'm only now learning safejumps and such, the only thing that beats safejumps are parries right? or are some supers fast enough to beat gio's sepultura > iad j.h?
>>491767424Oh anon
>>491767424the only thing that should be beating a properly timed safejump is a parry, yesif your safejump is getting hit you're probably not doign it right. gotta hit the lab and drill some
>>491767670oh no it's working fine against dps and wakeup mash, I was just wondering since I'm not 100% what tools all the characters have
>>491767801nobody has an (invicible) super faster than 9f, which is also the fastest dp timingasuka has a faster super at 6f but it's not invincible so you should be stuffing it just like any other wakeup mash option
>>491767424Pretty much yes.All meterless reversals are 9f, with the exception of Ky at 11f. Most metered reversals have the super flash, meaning the cutscene happens, at 9f or 11f with an exception or two like Faust. The 11f supers or slower are more easily PRCed during the super flash so they can Super > PRC > Throw during their i-frames for 50 meter. There's also the matter of backdash BRC or Slayer's Hand of Doom.If you can safejump Sol's DP (9f), you're pretty much good to go, but you might get screwed over by slower reversals or tricks involving them if you autopilot.

Just finished watching trigun, the og one, cause i heard it was an inspiration for gg.Overall 6.5/10. It has a really fucking incredible 10/10 episode (you know which one), but the first half the show is just boring pointless comedy and villain of the week. The overarching philosophical theme is good and even tho i disagree with vash and find his kind unbearable it's rare that an anime asks those kind of questions. Gonna read the manga now, i hope it's better.Also this mf had the coolest design of them allhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ah_JnspIzck

>>491772734I wish the GG gun characters had at least a fraction of vash's coolness, alas, we get HC and elphelt

>slayer and johnny player after 11 games backs out of set>says "learn to defend" and leaves the lobbyI legit have no idea what he meant by this. maybe the fact I got hit by johnny's unreactable overhead? and that I couldn't block against fucking slayer
>>491777513https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1SoNOkcVBAThis entire video was made by Sajam because Hotashi didn't understand what a spacing trap was on twitter
>>491777848https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExpzZ_HdfbYHere's the Hotashi response in case you think I'm lying or whatever
>>491775119I didn’t plateau because I’m bad at the game. I'm actually really good. I plateaued because I spent most of my time trying to make the game do things it couldn’t, as I couldn’t stand playing it the way it was “supposed” to be played anymore. It got boring and I stopped caring. >I'd have been happy to coach youDon’t play with my emotions by assuming I want to follow the same path as everyone else being just another player following the exact same strategies and losing in the same way.>Play like this>Make sure to do this>The most optimal way is thisThe very idea of what it means to be "good" at Strive is why I lost interest.
>>491777954xrd players do not understand GOOD hitboxes, classic
>>491778267Wym bro :)
>>491778070mad cuz bad
>>491778394why is xrd like this
>>491778526Spacing. Fundamentals. Footsies.
Is Arbiter Sign still just a shitterkiller crutch or am I actually supposed to be throwing it out with my skulls and birds
>>491777665If you're getting gapped by two of the weakestr characters in the game you definitely need to hit the lab sheesh
>>491778623Wait I forgot the real footsies button
>>491778739funny thing is i literally can't lab them>just use creamapii already know i can do that and i already know what i'm losing to, johnny gets unreactable overheads and slayer can cross you up at literally any point he wants (and you have to hold that shit for the whole set because 2H exists)
>>491778394>>491778526>>491778623props shouldn't have hurtboxes

>>491775876>NA Xrdbro
>>491781743What, is Hotashi secretly German or Italian or something?
>>491781931iirc the NA Xrd scene was notorious for being so far below JP there was no competition between the regions
>>491780428>>491778670Arbiter Sign is a lot better for when you're being outzoned. It's pretty good when you meaty with a succubus near because you can tele into a combo. You should have always been throwing it out, it's just way more rewarding now.
>>491778070you are not good at fighting games lol. you were bad then, and you're bad now. i think it's mostly due to your ego. i think that's also why you never made any friends here.
>>491783396I don't really know what the point you're making here is desu. My point was that Hotashi basically ran NA during Xrd's lifespan and his fighting game fundamentals are nonexistent, therefore Xrd doesn't teach fundamentalsThat NA is worse than Japan is probably true but not relevant to my argument
>>491784142that's a fair assessment, but i think we've seen time and again that JP fundies are multiple tiers above NA fundieswhile it's likely that JP players were playing other fighting games at lower skill levels (the scene was entirely in arcades iirc) i don't think that alone could explain the incredible fundies we see from JP players even in strive
>>491783891>the most blatant projection
>>491785117yes, he projected the words to describe you to a pinpoint. i'm quite impressed with his eloquence
>>491784668I genuinely think the lion's share of it is different network conditionsJapan gets to play on 30 ping and 0-1f rollback or offline which is results in a huge shift in playstyle over years of development
>>491785243that sounded cooler in your head
>johnny dashes at round start>knew he was gonna do it, I 2P>his throw lands firstI think I'm just not going to play against him anymore until they revert this buff.
>>491785117weren't you moping a few weeks ago how nobody from here has added you despite playing since december 2021? yeah no i think i described you perfectly.
>>491786070Yeah, I never added the guy I used to play here for a year. They stopped playing though. There was another anon I added from here as well, but they stopped playing too... Strive was the only games we had in common, and they were from EU.
>>491785903>letting a character dash at you on roundstartthis isn't a johnny problem, cope and seethe harder
>complaining about johnny when he's not even a top 10 characterman y'all are gonna hate him next patch when mist finer starts slicing through projectiles like in xrd
>>491785903Do you dodge gio too
this little move right here leads to less reward than a 5p
>>491788947he has a 9f far slash that combos into setplay even on normal hit so I can't possibly contest>>491790187I can press with relatively ok risk and it's not as fast
>>491790413how much startup does it have?
>>491790413why shouldn't it? Dps have no rc confirms anymore either
evens i try xrd again
>>491793158who you gonna play?
>>491793904the only time i've had fun in the game was mashing on sol so him i guess
oh btw heres the arcsys stream that shows 3v3 with trivia interspersed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1U_ZBGAbtYo
>>491794213oh nvm its that jap tourney with all the high level players huh
>>491778070I played you in lobbies my man. You were genuinely terrible, like getting washed every game mashing into frame traps and losing every neutral interactionYou know that your cope that the game is a flow chart is a way to deal with your skill ceiling. Why try to aggrandize it
>>491794631I'm not on this game grinding celestial like you are. Of course I'm going to look terrible. I'm not going to take friendlies in lobbies seriously like it's ranked.
If you switch to your main after getting washed in celestial, I've already won
>>491795781what about floor 10
>>491795864i can forgive it since their f10 main is probably still not good (generally speaking)
im dodging slayer man I dont care anymorethis is S2 HC levels of unfun to play against
>>491797037me too bro. my slayers fought ratio is insanely high anyway
today i played strive for like 6 hours straight instead of eating
>>491797921this unbearably hot climate has completely killed my appetite but i also don't have the energy to do anything
>>491797921guess you can say the game is STRIVING you crazy
also whoever said the average strive player's mental has gotten way weaker is 100% right. god damn
>>491770743its pretty obvious that you misspelt "strive" larpbro
MY FARTS TURN INTO STONE
Lobby soon?
>>491799582didn't notice. i did delete it though. i no longer own Guilty Gear "Strive".
>>491800476Do you see yourself regretting it in the near future?
why did they have to roid out all the s3 charactersi know release into get buffed was common for strive but still
>>491801078not really. most games i declare myself 'done' with i never go back to. not like i was playing strive anyway(or games in general)
>>491679174
>>491801823No other exercise on Earth gives you the strength and mass of power lifting. Any fancy-dancing pencil-necked geek who tells you that size and strength don't count is full of it. The oldest rule in fighting still holds... if other things are equal, bet on the big guy.
>>491802959i actually had the 110 pound anemic girl in mind when i typed that post up
>>491802239If you have no problems with self control, why did you bother removing the game from the account? Couldn't you just stop playing?
>>491801823I hate that they made every guy look like an actual gorilla, they're all so buff they've turned into squares.
>>491803190You're asking the guy who hsf to fabricate a whole narrative and cast of characters to deal with being mediocre at gear
After 5 hours of striving I am back at the same elo that I started with
>>491803314How would you know who he is?

Why are you still giving attention to APnigger? Didn't you learn anything with Ramfurry?
>>491803817The AP has many devotees, it could be anyone
>>491803830I won't tell you. You have to remember things like this on your own, or there's no meaning.
>>491803457we are all mid in the end
>>491803190>Couldn’t you just stop playing?Strive was my go-to game for three years whenever I was bored. I’d boot it up and play every day, even when I started to hate it. It’s hard to break the habit of doing something you’ve been conditioned to do for so long. And it’s even harder to find something equally fulfilling to replace it. So, with nothing to fill that void, I just reinstall the game and start the cycle all over again. >>491736341I had it uninstalled and forgotten for months, but like an addict, when a new patch dropped, I got pulled back into the cycle. I hate this—uninstall, nothing to do, reinstall, uninstall, reinstall, uninstall, reinstall. Why am I like this? Maybe it’s due to undiagnosed mental issues, but I'm easily susceptible to addiction, like gambling, drugs, or abuse, and I just can’t stop playing as long as the game is easily accessible in my library. So, by removing it entirely, I can finally break the cycle at its source.

put recovery frames on whiff for S, HS and special moves that currently are below 30 total frames and especially those that move aroundmove the camera back so jumping doesn't put the grounded player offscreenincrease roundstart distance so that you are not fucked against faster characters who reach you and can snowball the match from simple block-pressurereduce overall meter gain but especially from taking damage
>>491813925I feel like you typed this while in a rage without looking up frame data or thinking about the consequences of what you typed.
>>491814765hi sol main hows your slayer coming up
>>491813925nerfing recovery would be stupid, I feel jumping out of camera also isn't that big of a deal but zooming the camera out and spacing round start would be cool, same for meter complaints
>>491811870ram j214S is cancer and can single handedly carry her, there is no reason it should hard knockdown AND be safe on block
>>491815654It is mildly annoying but if she whiffs it clean you can usually punish the landing. Also I don't think it's safe on block if she TKs it
what is he doing down there!!
>>491816556he's stuck, you know what to do
do you think johnny is offensive or defensive? I think he is offensive and more of a setup char like millia where he needs to control the game to do his shit than a keep away defensive zoner like axl
>>491816556don't bother squidward
bump
Last patch looked so good on paper but somehow I'm really bored with the game right now, and I've heard a lot of other people saying the same, so what gives?I've been having fun mashing on +R lately instead
>>491821835Making the game better doesn't make it fresh
>>491821835DPRC was a gear cornerstone and by removing it not much changes but I liked it and they should bring it back fuck non dp players
>>491821835For me personally it's just straight up Strive fatigue
>>491821835The game expects you to defend now instead of shitting out burst and letting you DP RC. Autopiloters seem to just start ragequitting now.Also Slayer/Johnny/Sol being the most played is really fuckin' annoying, so playing 2-3 different guys all on the same char makes the games blend together.Insane how I'm actually excited to fight Nago, Leo, and Happy Chaos just for a reprieve from the other three.
>>491823508as a sol main i actually feel like the dp changes make it more autopilot friendly, having it CH throws is a godsend and lets me get meaty fafnir
>>491823676I still prefer it this way, I feel like now I'm being reward for being right and dying for being wrong as opposed to before where unless I knew I was playing against someone who was OSing it was always better to let it rip
>>491824410*being rewarded I promise I'm not ESL I'm just stupid
>>491823676Meterless reversals now have more intentionality since they were nerfed. No longer do certain chars have oki in their favor on their wakeup. Some people have misconstrued this as DP being dead and feel more emboldened to not bother respecting DPs as one should. You can get away with DPing a lot more since it's a lot less expected and respected, but the risk is also much greater for it. It would have been interesting to see how Tempest played this Season.
COTW waiting room.
>>491784142The NA scene wasn’t competitive enough to teach fundies and Hotashi did not ran the scene. He has better results in Strive. Even GCyoshi made more money than him back then
>>491829306If a game didn't teach fundamentals at the height of its popularity, why would it suddenly become a fundamentals based game after it started decliningAlso Hotashi placed higher than GCYoshi at EVO 2017 and EVO 2018
They should take Sol and Leo's new specials and give them to Baiken and Sin
>>491767290maybe that guy here will stop crying about Millia now
>>491767290i agree with him on most of that but there's a few reasons i still think millia is strong1. 2s has MASSIVE reward and it's constantly a 50/50 between that and bad moon2. kapel, a move that straight up nullifies every anti-air in the game (i don't care if there's an exception)3. cS as an anti-air is ABSURDLY powerful
>>491823676I know that characters whose offense heavily feature throws got fucked by the DP change since it completely changes the RPS in the DP characters favor. I don't see why they couldn't remove the DPRC bullshit and keep them throwable. Your get-out-of-jail-free card shouldn't be weighted in your favor.
>>491834135maybe block or avoid the dp, like how you punish them in every other fighting game, instead of being an ape that doesn't want to adapt to anything the opponent has
Lobby NOW !!PC WC but all are welcome>426003426003>426003426003
>>491821835The game is better than ever mechanics-wise, but it still has some dogshit individual character balance. Also like 40% of the playerbase are playing season 3 DLC who are all overtuned and/or super annoying to fight against.
>>491834135Dude how does it fuck their offenseNow if you bait the DP you get to murder themJust don't be predictable and run the same string over and over
>>491834234cool ill join in a minute. ec but connection will hopefully be ok
>>491816556Man
>>491835597kek
>>491821835Last patch can't fix all of Strive's fundamental problems.The more you play other games, the more you see them.Strive is mostly popular because it's people's first fighting game so they can't see as many flaws as normal people can. If you aren't getting paid to play it then there's no point in sticking with it
>>491834593>>491834207I'm saying the RPS has changed significantly if you use strike/throw. You could use command grab/throw to cover blocking/DP, but now it strictly covers blocking. I just think if you're knocked down the options should be weighted against you instead of being a coinflip.
>>491836041Who are you playing that doesn't have a safejump or a reversalproof meaty
that guy is right that command grabs should still hard call out DPs desuwild throwing a nigga who was mashing flash kick give me pure dopamine
>>491834234Please join the fucking LOBBY!!!NOW!!!!!
>strive is nearing its final season and there’s still no true testament
>>491837263There's no true half-the-characters
>>491837493The gameplay is hot garbage but most characters at least look how they did before with maybe a new outfit. Testament in Strive is a whole different character pretending to be him.
>>491834234>>491836279Little lobby is closed. Ty to all who joined!
>>491839068ggs chipp and johnny, sorry if i wasnt good enough, im still learning the character
>>491832723I think it's funny that he goes into this long rant about why Millia is bad being related to her being interactive, but then says he lost to a couple of Goldlewis players in bracket because they're "better players". Like she isn't bad because of what she does, but because there are like 7 big/semi-big body characters in this game who can just flail at her, be wrong multiple times, then kill her off a stray hit.
>>491834234ggs all : )
What if we got a character from HxH as a guest because of nen impact
>>491775915why are strive players like this
Is chipp still dog shit?
>>491840991The only change he’s gotten was a nerf to dp. Unfortunately.
>>491841043LOL
>>491840991Was Chipp ever dogshit?
>>491841043he's had a lot more changes than that>>491840991he's never been dogshit. he's still really good at what he's always been good at. he's worse by a decent amount, considering he was like top 5 before his rekka nerf.
>>491840991He just keeps getting worse every time a new character can shit out damage and making his shitty dp even worse isn't helping his defense but he's not as bad as other characters like Pot or Bedman of Zato
>>491840991Pretty this this >>491841976, unfortunately. He's been powercrept by a big chunk of that cast that he used to beat (mostly) handedly. That and the rekka nerfs have planted him solidly in the mid-tier, when at one point he was in the same conversation as characters like Sol and Nago.
>>491840991hes better than millia. at least he has a dp
>>491840991kindof like Millia, solid mechanically but you just have to be correct way more than your opponent
>>491841976>Pot
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zav84olTwEbros shes actually just a knowledge check?
>>491843702I am not going to practice fuzzy jumpingI will mash air grab and plug if it gets stuffed
>>491841976Can you guys stop putting Pot in the bottom 5. He has consistent oki and average defense now. Yeah, his MU spread is very hit or miss but that is just how the character is designed
That's it. I'm sick of you fuckers saying pot is bad. I'm picking him up. How do I learn him efficiently
>>491844682>I'm sick of you fuckers saying pot is bad.>How do I learn him efficientlyIf you need to learn how to play him he’s a bad character.

>>491772734Whats the point of a camoflauge poncho when you have a 50 foot long rifle barrel
>>491843702Some of them seem like knowledge/reaction checks but others seem more like layered RPS that requires some conditioning against good players. I hope Millia bros don't whine her into getting more buffs because I like where she's at and anymore might put her in the cabal crosshairs.
>>4918327231. no it doesn't and no it's not2. it nullifies every anti air except the best one, just air throwing it3.air moves are dogshit, IAD and air movement in general is dogshit, this doesn't matter
>>491848356I wonder what happens if Ram gets hit out of her laser super and then does it again
>>491848356What the fuck
>>491856278Didn't you post this already? You need to press sooner and use the momentum from the run to have your hitbox slide into their hurtbox sooner.
>>491856356Really nigga
>>491856464>takes 40 frames for Sol to land>didn't react until he landedjesus christ lmao
>>491856464You're right, it was bad advice because it was built around thinking you had no other option. But really the problem is that you're reacting to Sol landing and not reacting to sol preforming the dp. Just git gud.
COTW will be dead on arrival outside of thirdworldistan right? No one is delusional enough to believe it will be a success right?
>>491858145>>>/fgg/
>>491815654its minus and 5peeable off the first hit and it cant even crossup so idc when you are getting hit by it

One look at the flags on top 8s tells you what kind of game this is now. I dont know why people call it a fighting game.
I hate sin's 5H so much it's unreal, why the fuck does arcsys think that sin NEEDS to have dogshit 5Hs that serve one very specific purpose, xrd's was shitty in a completely different way I don't fucking get it
>>491892120Sorry, accidently shut off my tower.Lobby's back up.
>>491940163jesus christ how horrifying
>>491950273s1 strive funi game
>>491949508why does his 5H need to be good?
>>491949508Funnily enough Sin's 5H is like a top 3 button in his kit. Tells you enough about how shit his buttons are overall
>>491952874I know it's great in blockstrings and I'm a scrub that sometimes fat fingers 5h in neutral and gets punished for it but the gap between one hit and the other is so frustrating
So do we have any slight idea of when 3v3 is coming or is it in the limbo of "not announced when the release date will be announced yet"
>>491953443I can understand that, but it's utility is just so useful for what Sin has to do. It's not like there's a pressable gap between the 2 hits either. 5H is basically useless outside of pressure, but it is so good for that pressure that I consider it instrumental to Sin as a character especially now that DP is dead. It's overall a long attack, which gives Sin more time to rebuild stamina, it is special cancelable on both hits so you can mess with timing, and also is attack level 4 so you can keep people locked into elk hunt or hoof stomp (unless you're Sol or have a reversal on deck). When Sin got his initial buffs, the change to 5H and elk hunt startup buff were the 2 biggest things easily since it meant that people actually had to hold his pressure now instead of chicken blocking or mashing

One supplement I recommend for fighting games is ashwagandha because it really calms the mind. You’ll be less likely to panic on defense and get your bursts baited.

What kind of person is Leo supposed to appeal to?
>>491962027from what i can tell, he only appeals to fujos
>>491962027>>491962354The only people I know who like Leo are insufferable gay men
>>491962560I want to like playing him because funny screaming king man but like, I genuinely can't get over his visuals, he just looks like a bara porn oc
I bet jiyuna screams "ONE MORE" every time he hits his wife
>>491964134Who the fuck is Jiyuna
>>491962354Literally only gay men like him, what are you talking about
>when you are in floor 10 and a level 1000 nigga with gold border and celestial badge gets mad at you for not wanting to face them as sub level 100 guy who played this game for a couple of months on and off
>>491964371it's not a big deal
>>491964371if he's playing on floor 10 you can probably take him
>>491964568>>491965112I got waxxed, wasn't even closeThere are two kinds of floor 10 playersActual floor 10 players and aids faggots who like beating on floor 10 players
>>491962027Gorilla lovers like Jiyuna, but Strive Leo lost helmbreaker into stance which is what Jiyuna liked about the character.

>>491958639I agree
>>491967647I uninstalled the game and removed it from my account. Think Alternative. The only winning move is to not play.

>>491981147yeah, welcome to the second tutorial of learning how to play against a player instead of playing against ai
johnny is balanced, arguably underpowered
>>491981147Yeah you barely need to know MUs to get there. The winstreak system is beyond retarded since in theory only need to wash 2 flowchart retards
>>491982932>The winstreak systemHoly shit, that affects things? I just thought it was a visual indicator for you / your opponents.
Mr. The Beer Can playing Kazam
>>491987009Got raped QUICK. I do not know how to play this fucking game lmfao
>>491987254Yeah you got trounced, but try not to feel too bad. Kazam is probably the best Johnny in NA, and won TNS earlier tonight.

It is actually baffling how carried Slayer is. I fucking played since Strive launched and the only characters that are on this level of complete bullshit are launch Sol, Season 1 Happy Chaos, and ABA. I hope Slayer players realize how little they deserve to win
>>491992582I just started dodging Slayer. Haven't played one in 2+ weeks and I'm having fun with the game again, lol

?
Is Elphelt a char that requires neutral to play as or can I just mash like Slayer and Johnny?
>>492005092>johnny>mashing ever
>>491998704We don't play that crap here.
>>492005524Yes. They are bots in neutral.
>>492006743if true, why are you losing to mashing?
>>492006850cause his normals are long, fast and disjointed and i can't whiff punish him
>>492006850I'm not. You assume I have to lose to complain, which is just untrue.
>>492006743Johnny's buttons are long but have a good amount of recovery and/or startup. aint no reason to lose to mashing johnnys bro. especially since he has poor buttons to abare with and no reversal besides super.
>>492008356>being a sore winnerthis isn't true but on the off chance it is it's pretty pathetic
>>492010230>>492006850Hilarious. Can't say anything, win or lose. Playing against Johnny just isn't fun.>>492009182Recovery doesn't matter when he has the range to hit and cancel options to make him less negative. Startup would matter if his strings weren't airtight. Spacing would matter if his strings didn't autospace him full screen. Standard 5f defense would inhibit him a lot more if FD didn't exist to send you to his 9f range and he didn't have an HC tier backdash with a fuckton of health to pad his mistakes.
>>491998704there's a US Xrd room here pretty often (>>491892120) but I doubt you'd get a good connection to it. Sorry anon, there's not really EUers here.
>>492014346oh i know, i can get games pretty consistently, i'm just asking in case there's xrd players that are downi just got someone earlier from another thread and we had 120ms, had fun playing 30+ games without any rollback mishaps :)
>Nago, HC, and Asuka all have oppressive pressure options that they can cancel into and from repeatedly>All have been consistently top tier since their releaseHow long will it take Arcsys to realize that this is a really stupid and toxic idea?
>>492015527please let strive have at least SOME guilty gear dna. practice your IBs.
>>492015527Unika will have another variation of this shit, I can almost guarentee it. Every canonically OP new character HAS to have it.
>>492015714No I want to play Street Fighter with RCs (only good GG mechanic)
>>492017412sf4 is literally right over there
>>492017672you think any of the mouth breathing slayers in this thread could ever hit a run stop fierce combo with fuerte?
>>492017875QCF LP HP QCF LP HP drop the combo into break my stick
>>492017875watching fuerte mindbreak carried shitters like daigo will always be entertaining to see
did elphelt really need that buff? she is really strong now to the point where she is even more annoying. just jump in the air, fire off one shot and then hit the opponent from two sides to launch into a combo he can barely react to.
>>492017875Fuerte is the less execution heavy character on the screen here, funnily enough
>>492017672No rollback bro
>>492018301no she did not.
>>492018301she didn't but retarded elphelt players kept attempting to brute force her to work in an unintended way and managed to accidentally psyop arcsys into thinking she needed buffs>>492018358>muh one frame linkslmao evil ryu is sf4's slayer, braindead slop
>>492019014E.Ryu is objectively hard bro. I'm not saying he's bad or anything but needed to link cr.lp after axe kick for basic combos is difficult even with plinking
>>492017875yeah :)i was there for sf4ae
>>492009182>poor buttons to abareplease do not spread blatant falsehoods. let's all try to keep discussions here to a higher standard.
>>492021349his 2p and 2k are bad by all standards
>>491977736for some reason I thought it hit round start, once again I'm retarded
>>492018301What happens when you dodge the shot? Or even block before the ricochet?
>>492024197when i block, i get hit up by a cross up. you are blocking in one direction and getting hit from the other direction
I haven't seen a single strong elphelt in eu tower, they all fold to 6P or superior neutraljohnny however is overplayed and nearly all of them are very very difficult to beat
>wahhhhhhh wahhhhhhhhhhhhh johnny pressure wahhhhhhh wahhhhhhhh i can't punish him even though he's -14 wahhhhhhhhhhh
why do people get hung up on a number that isn't actually unsafe or even at a disadvantage when you have over twice the opponents range
Why do the niggers in this general ALWAYS complain about Johnny? He's not even a top 10 character. You niggers hated him when he was bottom 5 and now that he's actually playable I gotta worry about him getting nerfed because you braindead faggots refuse to learn the match up
>>492024409That explains why you're getting hit: It's not a cross up.
>>492024991>numbers are made up bro they don't mean anything they're merely suggestions bro no i won't try different methods or approaches bro it's not worth it
