where is paracelsus
>>492467531Doesn’t fit the transbian narrative
>>492467014Why did no one else play Johnny to get carried then? He did get 1st 2nd 1st three Evos in a row so why did no one else play this character to get carried to amazing results?
>>492467531I'm right here. First for my beautiful wife A.B.A!
>>492467703why can't he play any other game or character at as high of a level? because he's carried.
Jarvis, post the Leffen Xrd dust combo clip
>>492468069Because Johnny is a low tier character that couldn't beat the likes of HC, Nago, Leo, Sol, etc. Also I assume he doesn't take Strive as seriously as he did Xrd? Regardless its known very well in GG that Xrd Johnny was a very difficult character to play at a high level.
>omito haters>in my /ggg/get the fuck out, you tranny niggers
Posting slipknot Ragna and Nu-13 to remind you that he should've been announced for Strive instead of Licy
>>492468753nah i love omito im just trolling
>>492468203Xrd execution is no joke so the idea that someone can play a character like Johnny and get carried is laughable. Hes actually one of the more technical characters in an already technical game.
Omito mentioned he wanted to start traveling to tourneys last month I think?Also a Johnny beat one of the highest level HCs and Sols before he even got buffed.
>>492468995How good are his buffs after the last balance patch?
>>492468919Johnny's execution isn't even that hard. He's more difficult in the sense that he requires a lot of game knowledge to optimize. He's very difficult but it's not really execution.
>>492469121He went from bottom 5 to top 15, so not great but significantly better than he was.
>>492469121Johnny is quite good now. Buffs were pretty big.
Isn't Zato the most execution heavy character in Rev2?
>>492469121Real good. He might be stronger than Slayer.
>>492469352Yeah probably.I could barely do shit with that character on pad
>>492467223Now there's a proper sniff OP
>>492469363>stronger than slayer
>>492468919The combo he was doing is just basic magic series though which doesn't require much execution at all outside of timing the jump cancel for the second half of the magic series.https://streamable.com/zm7k6
>>492469352zato and every other negative edge character have never been execution heavy
you guys ever play someone who's such a complete retard that right before you 3-0 them you drop the combo and just start bagging the shit out of themim literally disappointed that people play the way they do.
>>492469727I genuinely do not understand this webm. It's so easy to do and he does way way harder shit in other games. What the fuck was his problem here?
>>492469949He wasn't acclimated to fighters as much back then but also modern games have more forgiving input leniency.
>>492469754whenever i play against absolutely incompetent mouth breather i just start flinging myself at them with the most retarded approaches imaginable just to test how stupid they really are
>leffen took 4 tries to land a dust combo for the first timelol so this is the power of a top soive player kek
>>492470050Leffen competed in MvC3 for ages before he played arcsys fighters
>>492467756stop pretended to be meBtw the artist including original A.B.A and having her head key screw thing on the right side and her being more insane than the others is a really nice touch
>>492470272yep, and once again, required way harder execution than a dust combo in xrd. legit do not understand why he acted that way lol
Could Jimmy get Asuka's war crime charges dropped?
>>492470073sounds like alternative play.
>>492469727>artificial difficult in chatAh, I see why games are the way they are now>fuck new peopleThis is something I'll never get. Who says you have to even be doing a dust combo when you're new? Or using even half of your specials? You're brand new, not competing in evo, having a high skill ceiling seems to be seen as a bad thing now but it's not like the skill floor of mashing with your buddies isn't very low.
>>492469754No I am never ever mean because someone always has to start somewhere and if they are continuing to rematch someone that is clearly better than them then who am I to shit on their mental when I can simply play the game
>>492471015How come jokes Strive fans make are never funny? Is it a generation thing?
>>492469745>implying picrel doesn't exist
>>492471290i mean if they're a complete noob it's differentbut if they are a semi-competent player that just chooses to mash every time on wakeup, never blocks, mashes backdash etc no matter how many times they're baited? yeah you getting bagged
>>492467223Daisuke seems to really like mecha and aspects of mecha design so why has he never made a mecha game?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO JOHNNY IS LITERALLY UNBEATABLE AND MIST FINER IS LITERALLY UNPUNISHABLE NERF HIM RIGHT NOW RIGHT FUCKING NOW
>Chink devs backpedalling on all those jap devs they poached because of Wukong's successIts ogre for Mori. Hopefully he goes back to ArcSys.
>>492471345Its zoomer twitter/tiktok humor, yes its a generational thing. Now you know how your parents felt when you laughed at Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny and Numa Numa dance in newgrounds back 2007
>>492471518his RTS autism was bigger than his mech autism
>>492471345you sound like a miserable boomer
>>492471015copycat witness testimony scene but with doppelkreuz
>>492471534daisuke's vision if it was actually good
Arcsys should make a character that has a visual overhead that actually hits low and a visual low that actually hits overhead. Has this been done before?
joke about it all you want but remaining in punishable range when using mist finer is a choice
I love moustache girls. So cute!
>>492473715>visual overhead that actually hits low leo>a visual low that actually hits overheadgoldlewis
>>492473715That sounds fucked up
>>492474375Also Jack-O 5D stomp
>>492473715Testament dust back in +R, same with Millia dust in Xrd as well
>>492471873qrd?
>>492473715>a visual low that actually hits overheadthat's like every dust attack bro
>>492470587YOU should stop pretending to be paracelsus, buddy. step the fuck off
I sincerely think DP RC wasn't a problem by itself, it only became a problem with the removal of 25% meter options, wasting that much meter on a reversal wasn't as appealing when you could spend half of that to extend pressure with something like FB Fafnir or a gun flame yrc or something, fix up a messed up combo with a FB Fafnir, control neutral with j236d as ky just do whatever, dp rc was prolific because there was nothing else to spend your meter on and still there's nothing
>>492477019its ok you don't have to prove to us that you're retarded
>>492476106Tencent started poaching Jap devs between 2020-2022 . You had Mori from ArcSys now being head of Studio Flare, Nagoshi who used to head Yakuza is also one of the notable devs who got their own studio from the chinks, as well as the Senran Kagura dev. One of the dev teams were I believe former Squareenix devs who did the Mana series. Yesterday, Tencent shut down that studio, right on Vision of Mana's release day because they werent confident the studios were going to make money, this was after Wukong's surprising performance. Turns out all the chinks needed were homegrown devs, they didnt need to poach Jap devs afterall, so now you have all these other devs like Mori and Nagoshi suddenly on thin ice.
>>492477019The problem with DP RC in Strive is that you can win matches in two touches without meter, especially in s3 with OWA gassing up every DP character's conversionsSpending 50 meter to take your turn back is strong when it literally wins you the game
It's a shame that Slayer is so giga retarded that ABA is flying under the radar
>playing tower>having fun playing against mid tiers>sol>all fun instantly drained out of the game>mashes on everything and just lose to better buttons
>>492478974>mashes on everythingbro, kill him in two combos?
>>492478974fact: unless you like playing against every character you don't actually enjoy the game, ESPECIALLY the protagonist
>>492479660this but unironically
sex
>>492479660But I like fighting against Sin.
>>492483235sin is the only honest character in the game, not surprising
>>492483704*Millia is the only honest character in the game
>>492476589But I literally am Paracelsus
>>492467223Why is wall damage some arbitrary value? It's generally consistent when it comes to each character's normals but it seems entirely vibes based when it comes to specials, not really related to damage or attack level or anything.Why not have it be based off of move damage like stun was?
>>492484352Can you give examples?
>>492484352Hang yourself ramfurry. You don't know a thing about the Game.
>>492484352geartoddlers will call anything non-universal and arbitrary "soul"myself included
>>492484352damage to the wall isn't prorated or otherwise subject to normal combo scaling, and so strive having varying reliance on normals vs specials between characters makes wall hp look kinda wack and hard to track also wall damage exists even at the opposite wall but it usually regenerates so quickly it doesn't often matter but any damage dealt in a direction does wall damage.
>>492484352kill yourself
>>492484352>look mom i posted it again!
I think my breaking point was fullscreen burst. I just didn't realize it at the time.
>>492471873>oh ho ho he's in the corner>and now he CAN'T GET OUT of the corner?>hehehehehe im not missing this show
>>492484878For being consistent with normals, every 5P, 5K, c.S, f.S, 5H, 2K, 2S is 300. Most 2H are 500 but some are 300. (multi hit moves will result in these numbers too like 150x2 for moves that hit twice). Every 6P is 500. You'll basically just see 300 and 500 damage with any normal but f.SS for Bridget and Nago are 700 for example.For specials let's use Sol and Ky's DPs as an exampleSol S is lvl2 and does 40 damage = 500 wall damageSol H is lvl2 and does 35,40 dmg (35,100 on clean hit) = 150x2 (300) wdmgKy S is lvl2 and does 48 dmg (52 in ss) = 500 wdmgKy H is lvl2 and does 60 dmg (66 in ss) = 500 wdmgWhy have Sol's H dp do 300 wdmg when it does more actual damage than both of Ky's and Sol's S dp and they are the same lvl? They could have done 250x2, plenty of other moves do that.You can get into the weeds of how each character uses their DPs differently but I tried to find an example of something similar being different and this was the first that I thought of, I really don't want to go through every character's specials and find similarities and differences, my original observation was just at a glance. You could also get into the weeds about how each character uses their normals differently but those are generally consistent.
>>492471534this is what people think strive johnny is actually like
>>492488049
>>492488049it's so they could give ram infinites while everyone else has to actually interact with game mechanics
>>492488049>Why have Sol's H dp do 300 wdmg when it does more actual damage than both of Ky's and Sol's S dp and they are the same lvl?he needs it, pretty sure this was a buff to HVV when they took out DPRC right? just sol things
>>492488612Why do they keep buffing ram every season? Isn't she strong enough?
>>492489225>Isn't she strong enough?no
>>492488049Yeah H DPs got their wall damage lowered. Leo too. It happened in this patch: https://www.guiltygear.com/ggst/en/news/post-2266/It's there more as a combo tool now.
guess we doin pilebunkers now
Slayer's 2H having an even better hitbox than on previous games doesn't make sense in a game where everyone now has big ass extended hurtboxes
>>492496324Learn the matchup
>>492488049see i don't know none of this shit and ill still a beat yo ass nerd ass nigga stfu
>>492489225Ram isn't that strong.
>>492489225Ramlets are literally too stupid to win
target acquired
>>492504441why arent you black
I thought I could leave lobbies forever, I thought I could turn my back on it and play people my own level until I ascended.. but something shifted inside me. I crave it, I need it, I need my as kicked.. I feel the untruth of the world every time I make a mistake and don't get killed for it. I feel it when I drop a combo and say "fuck it yolo" going for an immediate follow-up close slash or guard crush. I need to see the visions again, the Johnnys I can't even approach despite mistfiner being "-15", the Milias with the progressive throttle, all the people who won't even bother to use their burst or meter half the time.. I must experience the pain again, the shame.
I'm not sure if she definitively is, but May is honestly a pretty likely top 1 contender this patch I feel.Rn May has basically all the strengths a character could 'require' to be a top tier. In terms of her defense, she has a super strong 4 framer that hits crouchers and leads into soft knockdown oki, well above average health, good reversal super that leads into great mix with 100 tension that other chars just don't get (also beats a lot of anti reversal tools like danzai and doing a reversal back), and an insane jump that you can use to escape the corner in a way that's usually not possible. Defensively speaking she's insanely well rounded and only lacks a meterless reversal which 'was' notable before but due to dprc being removed I'm not really willing to consider that a standout issue or major strength she's lackingHer offence is fantastic, she has extremely strong simple strike throw that's definitely tied for best in the entire game thanks to a +3 c.S that's also YRC and burst safe so it shuts down many universal defensive tools while also being more plus than average Command grabs being insane aside, her regular throw also leads into a left right safejump which can either wallbreak with resources or lead into looping 3 way mix where you can represent throw and other mental stack options too. None of this really being a knowledge check and something you just need to hold is a super underrated strength, you cant really just get better at dealing with a lot of her offense I feel other than just reading the player
>>492510523May has been the secret top 1 since season 2 gave her a TOD but Slash is the only good May player.
>>492504441where is your melanin

>>492515925Why don't Bridgets do this more? Seems easy to set up.
>>492516117Most bridgets don't know how to play the game.
>>492516117every half-decent bridget does thisalso yo-yo needs to be nerfed it's too advantageous on block it's gorilla nonsense
>>492516390I've never seen a Bridget do this, not in my personal experience, and I've fought high ELO Bridgets, or in high-level footage.
>>492516117The average Bridget player has a brain rotted by estrogen pills.
>>492516809hot
>>492467223>all of the music is in englishDub bros... did we win this one?
>>492517963It's in Engrish, don't lump based Engrish in with your dub trash.
elphelt bros...
>>492517963It's Engrish, retard. Naoki even deliberately fucks up his pronunciation for the aesthetic.
>>492518637>Naoki even deliberately fucks up his pronunciation for the aesthetic.based if true
>>492510523You're not fooling me Tiger! May's a well-rounded, upper-mid tier whose lack of extended meterless pressure, mix, and conversion keep her out of top tier. But the whole pro scene remains completely mind broken by Slash's 2022-2023 gapping, so they'll continue to place her top 1. Maybe LK continuing to job on her will help get the point across.
Bridget is legit insanely brokenYou have to be 10x better than the Bridget to beat them in most matchups.I would pick xhem up myself but I can't play a character I despise that much, design-wise.Even if he wasn't a confirmed tranny he's still a faggot ass character made for faggots.
>>492516527>I've never seen a Bridget do this, not in my personal experience>and I've fought high ELO BridgetsTell me you are from a shit region without telling me you are from a shit region
>>492520220just win neutral
>>492520586I an from a shit region but I've never seen Bridgets from good regions in tournaments or other high-level play do this either. It also doesn't even seem like something advanced enough that it wouldn't be done eveyrwhere anyway, unless it's somehow harder than it looks I'd think even mediocre players could reliably do it and benefit from it.
>>492520730You have to be mentally retarded to lose neutral as bridget
>>492520812>>492516809this was taken into consideration when making bridget actually
>>492520864Had to have been, genuinely. Especially the over the top buffs they threw at the character since release.
>>492518637>>492518210What about aisha? gg's most popular song doesnt even have Naoki or engrish DUB WON
>>492520803Nigger, Arc World Tour 2024 is live right now and the first match on stream was Nago vs Bridget and had this shit, and they were random japs even not even anyone noteworthy

>>4925238012H
lol why is hos 2s fucking 6f>>492524624I guess you'd say that one but I've never seen it as anything other than a low
>>492518628I've only been playing for a couple of weeks now but do you really just have to sit there and block all of this shit? I can never really seem to get even a 5p in without getting my ass beat for it and some of these combos feel like they go on for 20 seconds at a time.
>>492527128I dislike playing against elphelt but elph players write bibles about how to deal with her, you have a slew of options against her bullshit https://www.dustloop.com/w/GGST/Elphelt_Valentine/Counterstrategy
>>492527128The Sol could've done deflect shield at any point He could've 6P'd the 2S 5H gap and DP'd the wild assault or the grenade setI think everything after that was mostly real though
>>492520220Bridget is good as a character except for the retcon
>>492518628hot take: the dumb part of this webm isn't the elphelt mix, it's how much meter she gets from her string

>>492510786Hello May up-player, could I ask what this TOD is? You seem knowledgeable on the subject, you speak with such confidence, so I was just wondering
>>492467756I’m so sad about new Abas design. We could’ve had something great.
>>492532847They took it away before the end of season 2. That's just the start of her top 1 status.
>>492537852slimy rat
>>492541357What, you doubt that it exists at all? I don't save a lot of webms but I'm sure some anon has it because it got posted here all the fucking time.
>>492541545>has been the secret top 1 since season 2 gave her a TOD you really think anyones reading this and thinking she doesn't have it anymore? sick of LK and sqtranny niggers pretending she's better than HCSOLNAGORAM
>>492541821If you weren't new you'd know the TOD I'm talking about.
You know why THEY up play May

>>492547713skill issue
>"ABA is a counterpick char" - Lord Knight>Gobou plays ABA against Tyurara Bridget and makes HIM switch to SinOkay. Let's see that Top 1 May now.
Man, just look at how Gobou manages ABA meter (he doesn't)
Well would you look at that Another stacked tournament without top 5 Slayer in top 8.
>>492559382Did Mocchi win AWT with Sol "Bottom 5" Badguy or was Sol actually strong those patches the whole time?
>>492559952Sol was always strong. Mocchi did not suddenly show up and win AWT that season
>>492560240Only he and Skyll were doing anything with the character. So many stacked tournaments he couldn't even crack top 8 in.
>>492555364Why would you ever have to manage ABA gauge as long as you do the right combos to get it back and can dash block? It costs practically nothing to use because any hit in jealous rage can be turned into a wall splat and any wall splat can regen the gauge as long as you have 50 meter and any combo done in jealous rage would give 50 meter. The only problem arises when ABA runs out on the opponent can zone but then she has dash block and slide to get close and overhead to get something going and therefore build gauge which costs practically nothing to use because any hit in jealous rage can be turned...You get the point, there's no real risk to this supposed risk/reward character, especially with free rc when the gauge runs out
Your time is running out, ABAfags.
>>492560501>Only his good players did will with him until Umisho, Steven, Tatuma stopped being retards and stepped up their gamewow what an observation2 more weeks until TY wins something
>>492541821May is definitely better than Ram nowadays. Ram isn't even that good.
>>492554880To be fair here in NA you have to go through the hoards of HC players
>>492560765He just let it run out, even when he had time to change.
>>492555364only gobou can do that
ABA is such a stupid characterHer neutral is throwing shit at the wall until it sticks and she gets her win condition both from bursting or getting bursted (just like HC mind you) or from her 4F jabImagine if Nago could combo into bite from mashing a 4F 2P because that's exactly as retarded as what ABA does
Bedbros, our agenda is crumbling....
>>492565885>she gets her win condition both from bursting or getting burstednigga why are you bursting normal mode?
hypothetically speaking...how hard would it be to mod a new character in strive? Like, a full blown character that doesn't replace anyone, kinda like an update Arcsys does. With music and stuff
Gobou went to sandbag with ABA and still won the tournament lmao.If he picked Asuka no one would have taken a set from him, you are delusional if you think otherwise
>>492570848i don't know what strive modding scene is like, but if there isn't any documentation made by the community, then you'd need prior coding/modding experience to make it possible. and i think custom coding is pretty hard.
>>492570848a tranny already modded in Goku with his own character slot and online compatibility
>>492571792I don't think he was sandbagging, he's been playing ABA and Goldlewis much more than Asuka recently.
>>492571792Gobou washing Arcrevo Japan with Asuka last year was the reason TC3 mana spell got nerfed lol. That is why Gobou is on the ABA grind.
>>492571819Hmm, I see. I guess I'll finally have to learn to code, I guess. Maybe then I'll learn to gamedev somehow>webm relatedwait what the fuck is that a real mod?? is that available online???>>492571908there was no need to specify that a tranny did it, but I'll check that mod out
>>492572058>>492572182I strongly believe he's miles ahead anyone from his region in pure skill.He could gap all of japan with any character.
>uh actually Gobou was sandbagging. do ABAfags really think their ”fail state" matters?
>>492572356> I guess I'll finally have to learn to code, I guessit's not hard to get into as long as you follow tutorials. i recommend starting small to get your feet wet. first with text editing, music/sound imports and texture edits to get an understanding on modding basics. there's usually tutorials and stuff for that. then you can learn to model imports and script modding then work from there. >is that a real mod??It's real but the creator never released it.
>>492572450Dark Necro would wash his ass if he played Asuka. Gobou would not even play that MU before Asuka got nerfed
>>492573159well, I already tried modding with my Potemkin voiceover mod. Which somehow works only in Japanese I dunno why, but at least it kinda works. Maybe I'll try something else, but simple too. Either way, thanks for advice. >It's real but the creator never released itGoddammit...
>>492574040It works only in Japanese because you only replaced the Japanese voice I bet
>>492574902no, I've replaced both Japanese and English lines

>>492581406TYRANT...RAVE why is the localized name tyrant barrel he says rave or am I deaf?
>>492582473Where is the Delilah swimsuit mod for download?
>>492582664Sin says barrel when he messes up and rave like his second dad when he gets it right.
>>492582664He says barrel when he hits the followup late and rave when on time, I don't know why they named the move after the fail state though, it's also called barrel in japanese
>>492583374i assume they call it barrel to differentiate it from sol but he says rave when he gets it right because he's mimicking sol
>>492582664>barrel: informal - drive or move in a way that is so fast as to almost be out of control.The imperfect version gets the barrel voice line
>>492583180on trannybanana
>>492583180I think there were a few on pixiv that were locked behind fanbox so you might find them on kemono. I dont think gamebanana allows actual revealing swimsuit mods for her.
>>492590846why doesn't daru pick a better character? is he stupid?

>>492582043I am gonna miss this button after the October patch :(
>>492595194Who wins here /ggg/
>>492595719Slayer. Not because he's broken, but because Baiken is terrible.
>>492595719Slayer always wins
>>492575208did you even look through ita bunch of them are empty and have no detailshe didn't write a book or even provide any information, there's an intro, some really basic stuff about BBscript and a bunch of empty pages
>>492590846Well, I mean when nearly every character since Season 2 gets to have better mix than I-No without sacrificing neutral or damage... And then HC forces all of the mechanics she could potentially benefit from to get neutered, only for him to still be top tier... Yeah, it's rough.
>>492596329I just read the readme page where he said that he was archiving resources. My bad.
>>492590846they need to fix her air dash.
>>492596517The fact that he still plays this game despite HC's continued existence is crazy
>>492592096Still up?
>>492528308>>492528789Glad I'm not the only one who has this view on Bridget. https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=TJRmNvm81Is

>>492611278god i wish that were me
How the fuck do you get close in Strive to do, for example c.S combo starters with Ram? I'm low rank and my games are usually just counter hits with far slash and pokes here and there until I win or lose.
>>492612903after a hard knockdown you can run up and time your hit right as they're waking up. This is called a meaty>couldn't they just block on wakeupyes but even in Celestial people don't like to do thatyou can also almost always start cS pressure off a gap closing special into red roman cancel because RRC extends their blockstun. in addition Ram's delayed sword explosions can provide the opportunity to cS as wellgo watch some tape bro and try and steal stuff
>>492613735alright I will look into it, thank you.
>>492612903c.S is usually used on opponents who are waking upthis is called a meaty and bad players will not block it because they are badgood players will sometimes block it and you have to learn to condition them to expect you to do something else so they won't block it but that's advanced tech you don't have to worry about right now
don't know why I play this game when I hate it
>>492612903Minus frames. Stagger. Strike/throw mindgames.
>>492612903>How the fuck do you get close in Strive to doyou use your neutral skip
Hear me out. We got the cyberpunk girl so it’s not crazy. What if we got Saya (who was in Nitroplus Blasterz) as dlc?
I had a lot of fun playing Rev2 today. /ggg/
>>492618625Why didn't you make a lobby to play with us?
>>492618869you know no one would join.
>>492617960you know that's not happening
>>492619120? We've been having lobbies here with the public Gilly Gear ones and that fag from /fgg/ also posted his lobby link here last week, a few joined the last one but ofc the public one has had more randoms in it. But getting games in Xrd is always nice even if the private lobby only had like 4 or 5 people for the time it was up
>>492618625We don't play that crap here.
>>492619554Your loss
>>492619382Well I'm not gonna waste my time hosting when I can join one of the public ones or discord
>>492620059You don't wanna play with /ggg/ers, your brothers, but you do wanna tell everyone about playing rev2?
>>492620276/ggg/ doesn't play that crap.
>>492620276/Ggg/ has been being mean to me recently, so I'm being a tsundere hoping you guys will get jealous...
>>492620360Dilate
Thoughts on this move?
overpowered, stupid and long overdue for a nerf
>>492624010That visual effect seems different than how it looks in game
>play rushdown, mess up my meaty, get back thrown>bothered, but shrug it off and try again>same thing happens>mental completely and utterly shattered, never dare to go for anything risky on offense again>lose 15 points from the setThought I got past this but some things never change, I guess. I just want to run offense man.
>>492624010I overuse it because it's more difficult to punish than Bandit Revolver plus it hits high. It can also be a handy string ender if you blank because KD. Plus I guess you have timing option in the air to fuck with people trying to 6P / airthrow you.
>>492624010I regularly do bandit bringer, backdash, repeat to knowledge check and they always block it at least twice. I'd say I'm glad I can use it but that would just get it nerfed
>>492624010whenever i play sols who use this in blockstrings i always go for the air throw callout even though it gets me killed sometimes
>>492624010It’s goofy but eh its fine to have something in this game that doesn’t always lose to 6Ps. He gets an HKD if it hits, I get a HKD if my 6P hits
>>492626938>its fine to have something in this game that doesn’t always lose to 6Psthis causes the soiver to shit themselves in rage
Baiken's farts. Discuss.
>>492626938And how do we feel about Kapel?
>>492630791Cringe and broken
>>492630791Uh……….
>>492630791
>>492630791Everything Millia has is terrible and she works ten times harder than the rest of the cast.
I wouldn't mind any move if defense wasn't so hopeless in this game like why does getting knocked down once have to end the round
elphat
how the fuck did I get a hammerfall here?? is it some input reader bullshit or is my copy of the game haunted
>>492624010I refuse to believe this is minus
>>492636010How plus or minus an air move is depends on how high up the attacker is when it block/hitsSol is only minus if he hits people above the shoulders. At the waist level and lower he's plusIt's also worth noting that Sol's most common mash button after, 2K is as fast as most of the cast's fastest button
jesus christ it was not a good session in tower today boys
>>492637135What doesn't kill you
>>492635982the fuck are you trying to input? Budget ICPM? Heat knuckle?? Fucking judge gauntlet???
\>>492637258that would apply if losing memepoints didn't kill my soul
>>492630791Kapel is the only special that makes me think yep that's a nigger coded moveIt really embodies the concept of getting free shit for behaving like a retard
>>492637892idk man I was absent-mindedly mashin while waiting for a match. probably garuda or something
>>492637258true true>>492638941honestly man i had unlisted myself and was having a lot more funi hate sweating so hard every match and getting mad if i losebut at the same time i want to hit top 10 for my character. idk, i don't think its worth the mental stress anymore.
What's Millia 6H(1)>j.236K/H good for? I also don't get how to get same side after cS airdash resets, even if I jump back and mash dash I still cross up
Is Bridget worth learning? I will try to ignore the retcon.
>>492592096lobby's still up if anyone wants to play.
>>492647047Bridget is one of the only fun characters in the game.
>>492647460You one of those fags who whine about the high damage characters and wish characters like I-no and Millia were better?
i'm paracelsus
>>492650480
>>492646872>What's Millia 6H(1)>j.236K/H good for?turbofall into grab, and once they start expecting it, turbofall into kapel to catch their backdash and grab. kapel is actually worthless though out of 6H aside from cancelling out of a whiffed 6H but even then you're getting punished regardless.>how to get same side after cS airdash resetsyou mean after relaunch? you have to superjump
>>492630791this >>492632532
why does crossup pilebunker need to exist when slayer can also do a safe high low and a pressure reset at the same point
>>492654650His neutral and defense are actually really bad if you can't deal with him once he finally earns his offense off of multiple hard reads, maybe just stop whining and go learn the matchup.
>>492654650because it's reactable and he's -14 if you react to it
>>492655171>His neutral and defense are actually really badbro would just do mappa hunch or a random ass 2h and i'm already in the mix what do you mean
One thing I like about Strive is how I can pick anyone and learn a character in less than 30 minutes, thanks to everything being so universal. I can't really do that in the older games without more dedicated time
>>492655619This but dbfz
>>492655603skill issue
>>492655619i agree unironically
lower the fucking damage
>>492654650Because it's cool dumbass
man this game sucks nowadaysearly on you could just avoid nago and hc and have a decent matchnow almost every character is a gorilla retard no skill abominationcan't wait for 2xko to come out man fuck this game
>>4926597062xko will be awful. Nen Impact is the only good upcoming fighting game. I don’t hate strive though.
>>492660304what's good about nen impact?
>>492660304>doa impactsee you on 2xko nigga
>>492660304i dont hate strive either but i am sick of it at this point2xko is fucking awesome, and im excited for nen impact too. the 2xko alpha was so damned fun. i miss it.
>>492656092Die low health slut
>>492660489HxH characters. I hope they can live up to how unique each character’s abilities are.
>>492592096Lobby's closing for an hour earlier today.tomorrow's mahvel 3.Until next month.
>>492664114I look like that
>>492663114From the trailer it looks very slow and clunky, also its assist fighter cancer
>>492664114i better see ppl in there tomorrow
>>492664930I don't play tag games.
What if all the females were 12 feet tall and IKed every male character with every button? Wouldn't that be cool?

>>492699526Nigga pulled out the year old twitter screencap.
>>492699526I like how BB and Uni look aesthetically but you can’t deny that some of the dorky designs are hard to swallow. The only chuuni core design with mainstream appeal is Hakumen. The Strive designers went on record saying that they made all the male characters beefcakes for broader american appeal
>>492699526Based Buzz.
Rev2's input buffer is annoying me. My forward input is dragging after I release button. Causing me to dash 623 when I meant to dash 236. I want a dash macro...

https://x.com/LordKnightBB/status/1829981205049024520what do we think of king LK's May matchup chart Maybros? Is he gonna get washed by a Zato and drop the character?
>>492726421I cross referenced it with Slash’s chart. It’s okay. Also everyone with a brain knows May can beat Zato with ease. It’s not a hot take, my guy
>>492727468Ye I know it was more a dig at how often LK jobs. In particular I was thinking of that time he got washed by a random Axl and dropped Millia
>>492726421It’s funny how ABA and May fags both just hate the MU
>>492726421>Jack-O even>Eddventure thought the MU was more hopeless than Ram, and we all know how he feels about that MU.>Slash puts it in Zato tier winning>LK has access to Nitro, EVO champ, Jack-O enjoyer, as a training partner>EvenSure.
>>492728871May wins the Jack-O MU because she can just jump out of her pressure.
what's a subtle anti trans dogwhistle i can use as my profile message? I wanna communicate to those who knows that i hate those but while having the benefit of the doubt and not making myself immediately hated by the good players clique.Cmon be creative
>>492729294YWBAW is very subtle methinks
this fucking guy picked MY niche main and he is doing better in three months than me in 2 years. I don't suck mind you but i used to be knows as that char player and now they are all talking about and praising that faggot? How do i put an end to this? Gatekeeping tech is not enough cause he knows where to find it and now people are getting ''inspired'' by him to pick it up.I NEED TO STOP THIS

>>492729265There's a bit more than that but it's a biggie
>>492706391You cannot be saying this when Strive designs exist
>>492733969But I can though. Strive designs are dudebro approved. Xrd chicken legs Pot looks dorky but his Strive model actually got normal people to try him out.
>>492733969on what planet are uni's designs better than strive
>>492729294winrate: 41%
>>492735407This planet>>492735126Nobody can think Strive Pot looks better than Pot, unless you're on crack. Testament too, what even happened to go so wrong?
>>492736382>thinking two extremely basic (and in vat's case not even good) loli designs make up for the rest of the cast being boring at absolute bestno
>>492736924Okay you're on crack, Vatista is peak loli
>>492737308that's len you tardvat is a nothing design, like most of uni's charactersthere's nothing about that game that's distinctive or appealing in a visual sense. pretending otherwise is complete delusion
>>492737632Len is better that's true. Vat is still really good and the best uni design.
>>492737632nta but Wald(((stein))) and Merk look cool and distinctive
>>492736382Strive pot looks better than xrd pot by a landslide and I say this as the guy that ranted about strive designs the other day. I think my perspective was skewed on REALLY disliking some designs while ignoring that the redesigns are boring and serve better as a safer option at worst (sin) while at best they look pretty cool, like axl. I wish arcsys added the sf6 thing were you can use the old designs
>>492738862Both are worse than Pot without the helmet
>>492738506merkava is a good designi think wald looks fucking retarded but he is at least recognizablei'm mostly talking about the smorgasbord of mid-2000s light novel designs when i say uni's designs are nothings. they're not visually distinctive at all, the only unifying factor is ironically the genericness.
>>492736382>Strive designs are just as weeb cringe>posts lolis as good designsI pity your lack of self-awareness
>>492739067Bro gets his opinions straight from youtube
>>492739032Arguable, I think helmet pot looks more unique and fun as a character
>>492739354the fuck are you talking aboutwho cares enough about uni to make youtube videos about the visual design
>>492739032kinnikuman > jeans slave
Strive is a social commentary more than a fighting game. I think I’m starting to see Daisuke’s actual vision.
>input is poorly explained
>>492739324>May>DelilahYou are about to say they don’t count. Lolis are a core part of fighting games. I said Strive designs are generally worse and harder to take seriously. HC is one of the few exceptions.
>>492744237Bad bait
>>492744312I accept your admittance that you have no argument.
>>492744476When tasked with arguing against the absurdity that "Strive designs are hard to take seriously with excsption of the smurf" an honest man can only call it bait

>>492751753I think that's Xrd. Not 100% sure though
>>492751753Company Director's YT channel.

>>492753676ctrl alt Cookie
>>492752878does anyone have the video of him getting his ass kicked by slayer that features the twitter screencaps?
>>492747292The whole world is kinda mean.
online players are such sore losersi was literally on a pixel of health and this faggot ass ky player just stopped moving once i started a combo on him at 50% health
>>492761487Tower has people with such bad attitudes. Constant entitled ragequitters.
>>492761487you sure you didn't get desynced? they probably stopped moving because the game was finished on their end and no more inputs could be sent. strive online is bad.
>>492763416The only time I've ever had desyncs in Strive was playing with (or playing against) someone with a mod desu
>>492763860I use to get them all the time to the point I was expecting it. 2 or 3 in every 10 games or so. Unplayable. It probably has something to do with my download speed, but I always had a good connection and no mods, so who knows.
>>492764441That definitely sounds like an ISP issue. I've never heard of anyone else with that issue desu
>>492764615>I've never heard of anyone else with that issue desuI mean the only way you can tell is if you look at your replays, or notice the opponent is "playing differently". And since most people don't do that they probably just write it off as a rage quit. The game doesn't give you a communication error message or anything to sync the games back together.
>>492765916I mean your opponent just ceasing to hit buttons or block is pretty noticable. Unless you play a flowchart offense mix character?
imagine playing a """fighting game""" where you genuinely don't notice your opponent completely stopping all movementsoive
>>492766162Well both players' inputs are still being sent, so even if the game is desynced they're still throwing out attacks on your screen, and blocking your attacks on their screen. So you never really know. They only stop moving once the round/match is over on their end and there's nothing to press.
>>492763416i've never gotten desynced before and the ky did the same thing the round before but i just killed him a few seconds after
>>492766980Oh. Then that Ky is a little bitch.
>>492766980>the ky did the same thing the round before but i just killed him a few seconds afteryou need to understand and accept that rollback implementation is completely fucked in strive, its very common to have flashes of the win/lose screen for a few frames when someone is low hp, and one time a friend and i were at one touch each when the netcode couldnt make up its mind and we actually both had won on our screens, showing a 2-2 for me and a 3-1 for him.the ky must have had his match end screen up already on his client and his inputs only going towards the ui
how come the only time i hear about this problem is in this thread from one guy
>made someone ragequit>who uses my character>on my celestial challenge (he had a yellow aura btw)you're cooked darklord
>>492773173>one guy
>>492774362see that just makes me think you're trolling even more
>>492775852Yeah, sometimes I larp as the 'new girl' in mmos for the extra goodies. Sometimes it gets taken too far and I end up erping in a discord server somewhere. One guy even asked for feet picks, so i panicked and ran to the dollar store to buy a cheap razors, a dress, nail polish, and sandals. I know I shouldn't, but I need to keep up the bit or i'll lose my benefits.

Baiken is expected, but May is supposedly an uber top 1 character (I don't think so, but frauds gotta gaslight). Anyway, I realized that LK has now taken the bait twice where he's switched to what he thinks is a solid/top tier character, only for them to actually be mediocre/middling.
>>492801637But it's shit?
>>492839938>downplaying Maylol
>>492835332>dude in a suitdandy...
>>492845295>dude in a suitYour problem?
Baiken's enormous pepperoni nipples
>>492843034Ye she's strong, I'm just assblasted that the discourse around her being top 1 has gone on this long. Like if she's as good and easy as they say she is, one of the many NA/EU tierwhore players would've picked her up by now or some randos should've come out of the woodworks like they did for HC/Leo/Goldlewis. But they haven't, so she's either not as good and/or not as easy as they say she is.
>>492860854it's literally just slash mindbreaking them
why does ram sword toss beat gio's dedicated anti projectile move...
>>492842330Yes that is the design intent
spend days learning a character in training, only to forget everything once you get into your first match is soul crushing.
>>492872475do some matches vs the cpu at nightmare or the arcade first
>>492872761oh right. i forget those modes exist. it isn't just online and training...
>>492872761>cpu at nightmareis there something higher than lvl 99 maniac? uh
>>492873865How do you set levels? It's just maniac for me
>>492853898Good post
>>492860854They don't take into account her weaknesses because that would accentuate why their mains are fucked up. For example, she has relatively short pressure sequences that she can only extend with meter, pretty lackluster standing mix, and relatively meh mid-screen conversions. All her top tier competition doesn't suffer from these issues, but that's never pointed out. If they were honest (especially the HC frauds) they'd have to acknowledge that their primary winning tactic is pushing non-interactive bullshit, they're not actually FG geniuses, and Slash, who is supposedly the king of a retard character, is actually substantially better/smarter than they are.
>>492860854It's actually the latter, not the former.She's much harder than they say she is.
>>492878167Strike/throw is not a weakness with her cS and command grabAlso RWA solves her midscreen conversions. Now her gay ass fS gets a wallbreak while Bedman fS still barely works
>>492592096Rev 2 lobby is up.Name: gilly gear.Password: no pass.Lobby connection req: 2 or greater.Hosted in: NA west coast.
There are too many buttons to press with short windows of time. I thought gorillas were easy?
>>492880106Agreed.Disagreed. It makes her insanely meter hungry. S2 may had the meter less midscreen conversions off of ch 5k and that was broken but having to use WA to get any midscreen pressure and conversions is a weakness other characters don't have
>>492880818Press better. It doesn't take thought to push buttons. Are you stupid?
>>492883382Shut up strive baby. You don't even know what I'm dealing with. Kys

>twatter troons actually turning on BridgetFucking finally
>>492785783He probably regrets getting into competitive fighting games. All signs of terminal depression if I ever saw one. He should move to a 3rd world country so he snaps out of it.
>>492885354I played Xrd before Strive came out Soiver. You're branded a Soiver because you'll never outgrow your shitter phase, and instead of improving your fundamentals, you lash out and draw your tentacles into other games to try and hide your mediocre-at-best gameplay which doesn't match your ego. Vignette did it. BCK did it. Glad you're joining them in the Hall of shitters.
>>492890979OHHHHHHHHHHH
>>492890673how long do I have to stay in a third world country to cure my depression?
>>492890979I'm actually farming most people in xrd right now oddly enough. It's honestly surreal. Sure I'll lose to the rank 20 something i-no, but for someone who doesn't have much matchup experience in this game, my Strive fundies carry me hard. Anyway. Do you have the game installed? You want to play?
>>492892627NTA but I've been noticing a lot of people that feel around my level (shitter) in Xrd public lobbies, it's kinda nice and not what I expected
>>492893090Right? I was expecting the same thing when I started to play again. But most people I run into are getting into the game it seems. It's a lot better than being thrown into the deep end immediately like if I played BlazBlue.
>>492893665Do you want to play? Or are you done for today?
>>492468753Omito asked my missus out on a date once

>>492895058gg bro. controls were driving me nuts but i tried to play through it. it's like the one hurdle i'm trying to get over.
>>492888936You're aware that Ky is a giga brainlet character in Xrd right?
>>492890359Context?
>>492902204Kino
>>492902149Did you seriously just play a set with me, give me a ggs, then turn around and to call me a brainlet right after? Were you just pretending to be nice or...?
>>492901880What specific thing about the controls is the problem for you?>>492902801That wasn't me!!! I'm nicer than that, I don't even know what characters would be easy or hard to play
>>492890673I mean, they overtly said that fighting games weren't healthy for them and quit. As soon as they did that viewers also hemorrhaged from often 1k to around 100 and that can't be too great for the ego even if you know it's going to happen
>>492904038Oh, sorry about that. It’s mostly just issues with inputs dragging/dropping, or not coming out the first time. I’m pretty sure it’s a mix of my own mistakes and the PS5 d-pad, not the game itself. It was just frustrating when I tried to dash and it wouldn’t come out, or when I tried to dash, stop, then use Stun Edge, but ended up doing Vapor Thrust instead. It clouded my judgment and I lost focus. I love the dash macro in Strive, but I just need to get good at doing it the traditional way that's all.
>troon who gets filtered by strive's high level of competition runs away and shills xrdshocker
>>492905915Did you really ask why I had issues with the controls, only to call me a troon right after I shared my honest thoughts?
>>492900293Me holding the stick, just like my avatar.
>>492906342that was my first post faggoti dont give a fuck about your personal drama
.
Giovanna got that "3 mids in a row, then a safe on block ender" type of mix
>>492905778Oh yeah that's understandable, I'm glad my char doesn't have any dp inputs and I dash less frequently (but I was messing up trying to dash into you and getting hit, I think it's 6 frames before I can parry teleport so I just need to time it better and not go for such small gaps. But it felt good when I was able to go across the whole screen. Speaking of you tend to do very committal attacks in neutral which cant be canceled easily, sometimes when fighting people I'll go for it but they will already be going into a different attack so they automatically turn around and hit me)>>492906342Please stop assuming every person in the thread is me...

>want to play strive>brain cloud starts flaring upI just can't catch a break...
>>492908135I think you were only the second bedman I fought, so I was still trying to understand what was going on. (You honestly remind me of the good bedman I played here in strive lobbies) He really doesn't play too different from his strive counterpart. If you're still here in 3 days Please play me again. I'm going to do an anime training montage. I'll played bad today. Or add me on steam if you want
>>492921969I think I know of that good bedman? in strive lobbies, much better than I ever was as bedman? in strive. I'd say they are pretty different characters but they both have the end goal of getting you in the corner and applying pressure so that you can't leave. And yeah Bedmans are pretty rare so if you don't know what's going on or how he mixes you up then you can get fucked up. I don't think you even knew you could break the seals at first, you just went right past my Task A' seal, having one of those behind you is never good.I'll also try to train up some, I know that I was dying while still having a lot of meter left and getting hit because I was busy Task Aing when I should have YRCed, I'm still not used to doing that. And I think I only went for the instant overhead once. And I think I should have been using 2H and 3H against you setting up your projectiles. And I think I need to get better at converting into better setups off of my stray mashing hits, sometimes I would just suddenly stop because I didn't know what to do haha.I'll work on these things for the next time we meet!I'm not too fond of adding people on steam but I will probably be around, if you see me in public lobbies then feel free to call out to me, it's fun to fight people of the same skill level. I feel like the only reason I won so much is due to you not knowing bedman's tricks. Very fitting for his character lore-wise.
why did it take courage to wait until season 4 to release venom
>>492921569Let out a loud scream and it will go away

>>492924720>I don't think you even knew you could break the seals at first, you just went right past my Task A' seal, having one of those behind you is never good.I didnt lol. I thought they were permanent and I had to play around it. You always had one set up after I burst too. Your corner pressure was definitely really good. You were hitting me with a few mixes with the hover dash too.
>tune into TNS>first match is goldlewis hcNothing ever changes

they should make mist finer stance a parry and let him cancel into a dp too I think johnny needs it
>>492945082ok but the parry would actually be cool and on theme
>>492880106I'd say strike/throw is significantly weaker than high/low or left/right now that you can DP throws. They really didn't think that change through.
>>492945698that change also affects high low desu ne senpai
burst is the only form of defense apart from the costly yrc and should be spent immediately to prevent unmanageable snowballing. only dp assholes save burst. you think you don't need it like you were good or something but the match has become unwinnable before you realize you've fucked up like an idiot.there is no defense. win the random neutral exchange or die.
>>492944298I am on east coast, but would be down
>>492916298Tene's a much weaker player when his opponent can interact in a meaningful way. That goes for most Strive pros thoughever.

Happy Chaos? The guy who just presses H whenever he wants to do anything and everything? Yeah he's about as technical as the dude who flies instead of jumping who dies in one hit, or the chick who has to microposition herself to not die in her own strings.While we're at it, put the RNG guy who literally just spams shit uninteractively for 30 seconds so he builds enough meter to do it again, and again, and then gets positive bonus on block to do it until chip death. Yeah he's SUPER technical because he's random*
>>493007293yeah
Is Goldlewis the character with the least relationship between his story and gameplay? He's supposed to be all about defense but they made him a high damage oppressive mixup character? Why? Did they just forget what he was all about?Why not make him slow but have a shield similar to Xrd Jack-O that stops projectiles? Or some armor moves? Or guard cancels maybe? Anything defensive? His main gimmick is instead that he does the same move 8 different ways, what the fuck does that have to do with him as a character?
>>493010475>he is supposed to be about defensebro, he is an crusader vet. Being a defense secretary just means being the politically correct top dog of the military. His security meter is basically just waiting for his military budget to get approved. Absolute defense is a forced SOAD joke and also being tongue in cheek about the best defense being offense
>>493010475it's a commentary on the shift of US political policy after WW2 causing the renaming of the post of secretary of war to secretary of defense
I really like the way strive is rn except I'm getting tired FAST of all the Johnnys, Slayers, and Abas man. Strive would have like twice the playerbase if Arcsys were more attentive about nerfing busted/overtuned/annoying shit in their game.
>>493010475>least relationship between his story and gameplayThat would be Johnny. His oki is not risky gambing
Is Strive Fujocore? How come there aren't any transmen (women) playing? Would more come if we call it a manly game?
>>492880580Lobby's up.
>>493014842>aren't any transmen (women) playingbiological women are worse at videogames so they're not as notorious, but the biggest simps for answer, sin, sol and zato that I know are all transmen, the catch is that transmen are self targeting menheras at worse whilst transwomen project their mental illness towards everyone else on a regular basis. I will take a billion transmen over one singular transwoman
>>493014842maybe you have like 15 fujos who like the characters but they avoid the fighting game part at all costs, especially if they see who'd they be interacting with
>>493011645Anon he has a massive shield and throws back a rocket in the story, he was clearly supposed to be a defensive character within the story but it seems they stopped caring about that for the gameplay.
>>493016515One of his design concepts has him wielding a rocket and you think the story mode bubble shield defines him a character? Daisuke literally went out of his way to state that Goldlewis was designed without his involvement so what makes you think that the story mode animated at 13fps by 3 interns precedes gameplay design. Defense is a joke just like how Strive Faust pretends that he is saving lives by braking your shins. Its like saying the Iraq invasion was self-defense
>>493014842they're all too busy playing granblue

>>493047510I would also like if Ariels were playable but nobody would be better than Answer as he is Xrd's best newcomer and one of the best Guilty Gear characters conceived of.
>>493048006You would've got him as a side character in the story still I'm sure, maybe only Chipp's arcade mode. That should've been Answer's fate from the start, what makes you like him so much?
>>493048918Xrd was the first fighting game I really got into and I initially played Ky, at which point I wasn't really invested in the game, but the thing that really made me decide to sink my teeth into it was I went against an Answer online and seeing him in motion and how cool he was made me want to learn him. He's still one of the most fun characters to move with in any fighting game I've played because of all he can do with his scrolls and he has cool moves outside of them like his counter and command grab too. He's also the best animated character in Xrd in my opinion, with only Dizzy maybe beating him. I also like the thing of Chipp being the president of his country, but his design is still pretty much just a ninja throughout, especially in Strive where he doesn't even wear the glasses in his outro, and Answer leans much more into that executive ninja aesthetic to make for something unique visually that I really like.I think he's a unique character visually and mechanically and him being in Xrd will always give Xrd something that other fighting games don't have for me, even +R despite being very similar overall, and I also have some sentimental value with him seeing as he's pretty much the reason I got into fighting games in general.
>>493048006Based Answer lover. :3I agree btw
The point is there’s only like 2 people who want the retarded clown girl and answer, but 2 million+ want the fotm femdomslut so unfortunately from a business perspective Lucy was the better choice
i'm still in shock people actually like answer's design
answer sucks, garbage character
If you don't like Answer, fuck you.
What if the next guest character is a Guilty Gear guest char? Wouldn't that be Hype??
>>493052109The only cool character that’s missing is Jam
...SAVE THE STRIVE SOCIETY. HOLY ORDER SOL...!
this dude is named strawberry lmaaooo
I don't understand why people who seem to not like Strive continue to play it, like they complain about core issues of the game that come up in literally every round like the wall or whatever but they keep playing it, why not do something else?
>>493052549aren't those different circles
aye yai yai
>>493053478das raciss
>>493054554PITCH BLACKPURE WHITE
Daisuke really thought he cooked with Bedman and Gios themes
>>493052716On twitter there's lots of people who will complain about Strive and then keep playing it. And sure everyone complains about the game they play but these people seem to hate it but have some addiction to it
Which game is it that Testament can just go back and forth with grave digger?
Street Fighter players complain about their game too, but keep playing it.Tekken players can't stop complaining, but they won't stop playing."Ay yi yi!" cries the SNKspic in between sessions of trying to convince the internet the ugliest fighting games ever made are actually beauties. They all complain... wait... I guess 2XKOGAWDs didn't complain... huh, I guess they just wanted to play the game more? Maybe it's just better? Draw your own conclusions chat, draw your own conclusions...
>>493056537Plus R. Don’t think he’s in xrd.
>>493056627I meant there was some other XX game where he could just keep going with it, idk if it was an infinite or not
>>493056957Oh, not sure then. I never played before plus R.
>>493056957feel free to try an older version of accent core in fightcade, they might have it there
I won't be elaborating
>>493060008The Leo sneak
>>493052549>>493056001i have hated it for the better part of the past few years yet still played it for basically the whole time, winning in strive is simply addicting.and then you have one of the literal worst possible experiences in all of video games by losing to 1 mistake, which leads into a series of wrong guesses. essentially it's literal gambling but without a cash risk
>>493060159ah, daisuke succeeded in making strive feel like mahjong
>>493060008>fun/fair>any character with a dp or parrygood one
>>493060159skill issue
>>493060159That’s the point of strive pretty much. League has this thing where they rig 50/50 matchmaking to make you play more. Strive does this but with how you die from one hit and everyone can do it because there’s no execution barrier.
>>493060159Why don't you play a different game?
>>493060383imagine still complaining about meterless reversals after they took out DP RC
>>493060546because in other games winning isn't as easy as landing 1 close slash while they don't have burst, while feeling as good as, idk, sex x100

>>493060650you dont know how annoying and limiting it is to play vs it when your entire character is built around oki setups
>>492785783Is this that one cowgirl "vtuber"? trans?
ok wtf are sin's options in neutral?
ok i still don't know when i'm supposed to input dp for dp reversal during a blockstring
