>fair>fair>fair>fair Haha, bubblebutt!
Zetter players think they're playing the protagonist
>>503812482I saw an Orcane today, miraculous. First time in 2 weeks. And he was just as retarded as the rest were, so they clearly weren't hidden in the mountains to hone their skills. Managed to kill himself 3 times in 2 matches.
Is the Clairen Knight mod the only good mod that's come out that isn't a recolor?
its simplei played kragg in roa1i play him in roa2i will play him pre nerfi will play him post nerf
>>503812875I hate how shitty Zetterburn's character is at the moment. Voicelines is just: RAWR, GRUAH, ROAR. And lorewise all he is just groomed heir to the throne. I hope that they give him some fucking personality.
>>503813262There's the suit one too, but people are lazy to rig their meshes to animations.
what are the chances that shovel knight comes back
Odds we'll get Absa in December? Odds the patch will be good and will save Melee 2?
Sybil Pseudoregalia when?
>>503814095Very slim, probably just a reveal during holidays. I think patch will make the game less frustrating, but devs seem to just want the meta mature a little before making significant changes.
>>503813474I remember seeing a Marth mod and an OC mod for Clairen weeks ago but your explanation answers why they haven't been released
>>503814268that would be sick
>>503814503Clairen Marth
>>503815136Clairen Zero
>>503815325Clairen (not sure if OC or not)
>>503814268i believe they said they didn't want 3rd party characters for rivals 2
whats dsr
>>503817720Dave's Stupid Rule. You can't go back to a stage that you've already won on.(I typo'd the most important word)
dabuz gotta be one of the ugliest human beings on the planet earth
>>503817936I just checked his stream to see what he looks like. He's not really that ugly, he's just a jew. Looks like an average jew.
>>503815136i'll play her if this mod comes out
>>503815136shouldve gave her lucinas outfit instead
>>503818309hes so fucking ugly man
dabuz if he played roy
>>503819352jej
116 point difference from second placewill he be a monster after the ban?
>>503819545he's the best offline player. if he wasnt banned he wouldve won every tournament
just did some counting, this is the 13th thread. see for yourself. the threads that archived at like 15 replies or were deleted for being duplicate threads dont count https://arch.b4k.co/vg/search/subject/%2Froag%2F/
>>503813135fucking based
>>503820040No I've counted too and that's not all of them because one didn't include the subject line.
>>50381409500.0%https://x.com/RivalsOfAether/status/1861527003780075695>Our first character update isn't until 2025
>>503822375You've goat a be kitten me
I;m Thinking About Thos Beans
every forsburn ive ever played this game with has spent 90% of the match running away from me. its as if hes intentionally trying to be the most boring man to ever step foot on earth. its not even about strategy, theyre just like this in real life, outside of the game.
>>503825724post yfw deceived
>>503825861
>>503825724>okay, i forward strong>it whiffed? shit, new plan>i take 2 steps back and forward strong
CC'd again!
Marlon said he has an alt at around 1700 of him just messing around with Fleet because finding matches at 1900 was too hardHe's literally lapping mang0
>>503814268>>503817283They said they weren't a priority. In the roadmap october roadmap video dan also said he wants to bring back SK and Ori but for no one to get their hopes up for it. so not totally off the table, maybe if the console bump is a success it'll start looking more realistic for themAlso Yi Nine Solman, Sybil, and Kril would all be great fitting reps and theyre all from 2023 or 2024 indie games
>>503830604whats the accounts name
>>503830995Not sure, idk if he even said the name. But he brought it up within the first hour of his stream today
>>503831050he used it on stream, it's called "heysolike"
Any tournaments this week?
I LOVE FLEET!
>>503817283based fuck 3rd party characters I hate them
>>503842768same. ori and sk were the least fun characters to fight.
>>503843917No I don't care about the design I hate the principle. I want games to be a cohesive creative vision not some retarded 3rd party suck off contest. Even worse when it's from an IP that hasn't had a real entry in years.
>>503844463>I want games to be a cohesive creative visiontoo late for that
hes comming in... right?
Who is the most honest character and what would be the smallest buff that would push them from honest to fraudulent?
>>503854045god i love bears, they're such cute monster killers.
>>503857514Nobody wants to admit it, but Forsburn.
is cody's "gf" actually trans?
>>503857514Forsburn
>>503861804Yes. This general is pro chaser BTW. If you want to seethe about le trans boogeyman hop on X.
People who think Clairen is in contention for the worst character in the game seriously need to put the crack pipe down. Tipper fair (1) is a better move than all of Lox and Fors' movesets. That's before you even talk about her grab and everything else.
>>503864782clairen is the 2nd best character in the game according to the official tier list (leffen's)
>>503863715yes, we are PRO chasers here sister
The most important thing of the December patch is Ranno GETS ANNIHILATEDFUCK THIS CARRIED BITCH ASS CHARACTERAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>503866454Kragg is worse there are so many of them
>>503867935He's not. Kragg is combo food and a massive target. Ranno is literally Kragg minus those weaknesses.
>>503863715>>503866325why is this?
>>503868621combo food doesnt matter when he can consistently live to 150+ and has multiple ways to gimp you at 60
if you play ranno youre carried in neutralif you play fleet youre carried in neutral and edge guardingif you play kragg youre carried in neutral, punish, edge guarding and recovery
>>503874815>ranno>not carried in edge guarding and recoverybro he literally has 3 lingering aerials and 17 recovery mixup options
>>503863715Baited absolutely no one award
So do they expect me to get that many coins
Is this general was strong enough to withstand a full out dupe attack?
>>503877354huh?
>>503876782Made soiteen seethe award.
>>503877354He has assailed this general many times and it still persists. I think furries and shills will keep this shit alive no matter what.
>>503878484meds
>>503876439rannos deep offstage recovery is completely linear, there are situations where he can only get back by tonguing his bubble that makes it weak to characters who can go way off stage safely (fleet and kragg)and being able to go way off stage safely is what makes their edgeguarding significantly stronger than rannos
>>503878484>He has assailed this general many timesi dont think this is true at all, or at least not nearly to the degree that he's done it in ssbg
>>503878484seek help
>>503879059he doesn't need to go way offstage, he has invincible back air
>>503871959This general is like 50% rivalstrannies and 50% meleechads(cody is an honorary rivalstranny)
i wonder who's behind these posts>>503878916 >>503879301
>>503878484>>503880276obvious dupetranny schizopost
>>503880151Am I a tranny if I play Forsburn
>>503880590You're only a tranny if you are 1) a tranny, or 2) a chaser. These sorts of people almost exclusively come from Rivals 1.
>>503880590You are a tranny regardless of your character choice.
>>503880680I like Rivals 1 but I hate trannies>>503880705Call me Little Mac, I'm not recovering
I like Trannies but hate Rivals. That's right, you've never debated with someone like me before.
>if you macro aerial neutral b you remove all execution on b reverses I feel like 70% of this game is who knows how to cheat better with macros.
>>503881004That's because you're just saying something as a shitpost. You don't actually hold the position you are representing.
>>503880870>but I hate trannieswhy? how do they negatively affect your life?
>>503881196I masturbated to Ella Hollywood yesterday and Rivals 2 fucking sucks because it's impossible to edge guard, the stages are too big, and shields are too good. Melee Falcon main BTW. What more proof do you want?
>>503881997Rival troon false flag, ignore.
>>503881997Who?
>503881997behold, the falseflag final boss
current mew2king status? what are his plans towards heading back to america? next week? next 2 weeks?
>>503882792who
>>503879447the further out you can go to intercept the ridiculous recoveries in this game the less youre going to let people back on stage
>>503883436nobody gets back on stage against invincible back air outside of user error
>>503883436>the further out you can go to intercept the ridiculous recoveries in this game the less youre going to get reversal'd and fail to make it back yourselfCorrect.
>>503883558edgeguarding is nothing more than space controlrannos ledge hop bair is absolutely king at the space it controls but it doesnt even control 1/5th of the space that fleet and kragg can threaten, they are fundamentally playing a different game
>>503882479thare was no reason for this to get deleted
>>503817283>>503842768>>503843917>>503844463Fine. But give me a fast little fucker with Captain Falcon’s up air. The rest of the character can be whatever the fuck; I don’t give a shit. YOU HEAR ME, DAN? GIVE ME MY FAST FLIPPING LITTLE FUCKER.
>>503880151what does that have to do with chasers?
>>503884656Olympia better come sooner than later because I fucked with that playstyle.
>game is already cheaper than it was at launch discount
>>503887880I was really starting to get the hang of her when I was playing last summer. Dumbest looking character by far, but man was she satisfying to play.
>>503887905>$3 cheaperThey should give us the difference in aether bucks
Will we ever get skins this good?
>>503888505
>>503888824
What's the patch?
>>503889780not enough
>>503888279uhhh i think your math is a bit off there.
>bot match liteDid they literally patch this in to give M2K something else to do? Cuz nobody else is playing that shit lmao.
is it december 3rd yet
Thinking about picking up Orcane. Any tips? I know about orcahopping.
>>503890804No, but it's almost Thanksgiving! Hope you're enjoying time with your family!
wrastor is so fucking ass
I think I'm gonna continue putting my seethe posts on the suggestion site because they always get a bunch of upboats and engagement for some reason.
>>503890641its something for autistic people who can't into games. Goes quite alright with the sale.
>>503891165make sure to use a vpn
>>503891383Why, does the site dox you? literally how?
>>503891556no, there is just a post history
>>503891676I'm anon posting though.
>>503891903doesn't matter
>>503892102I'm cooked. Rival troons are en route to my location.
>>503890804frogposter, are you him?
>>503892342?
>>503890908Always have a puddle. Don’t teleport unless you really have to. Get good at using your bubblebutt and orca hops and all that to recover, so in the moment you can get back whichever way the opponent isn’t covering. Don’t just be a bubble spamming pussy. Be aggressive. His jabs, tilts, aerials, throws, and smashes are all amazing. Just whale all over them.
>>503883436this guy knows nothing of needleboosting
>>503892392the cancer that killed ssbg was a notorious frogposter
>>503892849oh, no i'm not that guy
>>503891246yeah, there's a lot of people who can't get a SINGLE win online and have been having a rough go of things. i think it's cool enough as part of their new player onboarding strategy, but even with their promise to flesh the mode out, i still hope to see some progress on an in-game tutorial before the year ends. a good marketing strategy to pump numbers would be to have another free to try demo week once the tutorial is complete.
>>503892695a shitty and extremely commital version of what kragg and fleet can routinely do
>>503890264Launch discount pricing was $26.99 while this autumn sale pricing is $23.99, ergo $3 cheaper.
>>503892452Yeah I don't plan to use bubbles much, seems like a noob trap since they can be parried.
>>503892849i spent so much time in ssbg around ult release shame to see it gone. even /v/ threads during majors are dead
>for 2 weeks play a character with great aerials and awful tilts>switch to a character with awful aerials and great tiltsThis will go well.
>>503900738Which is which?
>>503900914Zetter and Orcane.
>>503900738why not play wrastor; a character with awful tilts and awful aerials
>>503901062>wrastor downplayersThat's a new one.
why is he so cute
>>503901263you're gay and french
>>503901124shut up im trying to get him buffed
>>503901296british actually but close
>>503900959You’re about to be pleasantly surprised about those aerials, anon.
clairen is the highest skill character
>>503901670I don't see how. None of them have any range. Up air and back air are pretty laggy. Back air fails to connect into the strong hit half of the time. Forward air makes forward approaches in the air nigh impossible, and back air's inconsistency doesn't make reverse aerial rush much better. Neutral air is pretty much the only one that can compare to any of Zetter's.
>>503895770ult game tag?
>>503825724He literally can't approach. What is a forsburn meant to do against anyone on the fast when 80% of his kit gets nullified by core mechanics like CC and floor hugging.
>>503902250Nair is bonkers. Up air is a bit laggy, but it’s a great combo move in some matchups and a great kill option in others. Once you get more consistent with back air, though? It’s GG.
>>503904097A great kill option? I've had midweights surviving that at 140%.
>>503861804she posted a pic of her sucking his dick on reddit, you can go dig it up if she didnt delete it
>>503906692post it
>>503904918I did say “in certain matchups.”
>>503826178I am not gay or furry, but I kinda wanna smooch that snoot.
>>503914621[x] Doubt
I feel like Eric cartman on that episode where he freezes himself to get to the future because he couldn't wait for the Nintendo wii to come out except with the December 3rd patch
>>503914997Why would I lie? That yeen's snoot is very kissable.
>>503917992based, but you gay
Pity bump
>>503902059agree
i need my campy snake

>>503927615Imagine how bad you need to be in order to leave a review like this.
>>503927936"everyone is lose to is masters smurf"
>>503927441This bitch was cancer but she might be tolerable with shields>>503927936There were people on /v/ saying this shit!! They were paranoid and convinced everyone who swapped to their main on game 2 is a crypto-diamond player.
>>503928186It was mostly posted during the first few days of launch so it might've been when the ranked placements were not matured enough and you could get matched against really good players who just started off.
How does one edgeguard as Orcane? Is it even worth going offstage with how exploitable his recovery can be?
>>503931901>Is it even worth going offstage with a character who can just teleport back onto the level at any time? Are you retarded?
>>503932738Are you aware that has more lag than any move in the game?
>>503933305>Is it even worth going offstage with a character who can just teleport back onto the level at any time?>Are you retarded?Read it again.
>>503933446Guess you can't read.
>>503931901i try and treat it like sheik where you hold the ledge to force an onstage recovery and then punish the onstage optionits a bit harder than punishing sheik tho
>>503937414Makes sense. His aerials kinda suck at killing offstage, so yeah forcing a bad recovery is probably best.
>>503937497just gotta be mindful of the side b ending hitbox and keep your iframes refreshed at the ledgealso he can wall jump after a side b so if he's high enough he can just jump back up
>>503937587Oh. I think you read my initial post wrong, anon.
>>503937645lmao shit, my bad
>>503927615This is in such unbelievably poor taste.
>>503938370Casuals aren't human
I love Tekken 8 and Rivals 2 I love learning fighting games!!!
I've played a lot of Forsburn but I might try out Ranno but Ranno also feels like a dishonest piece of shit except that feels like every character other than Forsburn, if I want to crush some noobs I pull out the Kragg because that punish game is unreal
>>503949121If anyone's wondering my Ultimate main was Ridley and Melee is Marth, PM is Kirby and Mewtwo, I don't know what the pattern there is
>>503949375Youre based (excluding marth)
>>503949684I don't play Melee all too much, I find Luigi more fun than Marth but Marth is fairly easy and works. I just hope that Luigi can start doing some DK kind of shit soon enough. I don't know if Melee Mewtwo can but Luigi seems capable
i will never understand why people hate playing against maypul. maypul to me seems like3 a normal character that does normal things
>>503950020I agree, it's tough when a good maypul doesn't let you breath and advantage states you for an entire stock but she still feels really well designed. Not tilting to play against at all
>>503950020She's fast, small and has a quick projectile that lets her either do some broken smash attack or a tether right to you. If I'm remembering right though the enemy can get rid of this with a parry, and there's a few of those to go around with Maypul. Orcane is probably worse.
He said yes!
mang0 has 1700 elo and he doesnt parry when running past the maypul plant
>>503950516lowkey he's hotter in rivals 2. Lovers Fors looks strange
>>503951130You take that back
>>503951130Agreed
i wonder if dan ever tunes into mang0s streams to listen to him complain about the game
i hate dan so fucking much these character movesets are fucking retarded. I hate furries so unbelievably much i cant believe i bought this shit
>>503952201pwned
>>503952201As an ex-furry, agreed on all points.
He's just like me.
>>503953402>ex-furry
Dan just implied that Fleet's grabbing ledge will not refresh float in the next patch.
>>503956134yass queen give us nothing
time to make another post on the suggest site complaining about the same thing for the 400th time and being ignored
>Be Forsburn>Friendly vs Clairen>Rockwall>Jump from platform to platform and do my smokeless consume taunt the whole gameI finally found a fun way to fight Clairen.
I keep getting dair stomped offstage by lox
>>503958223That stomp is always satisfying, but I don't really play Lox
Anyone have a rip of the Tales of Aether comics?I wrote the Clairen smut and I'll write more if someone drops it.
>>503961154Interesting. I looked at it and I can't even open the comic from amazon. How the fuck is this a thing?
>>503956134lines up with the leaked notes
>>503961954Idk I think the Kindle ecosystem is pretty locked down. I'm sure someone can manage to rip it though.
>>503962280But even though I bought way back, I can't even view the comic now.
>>503962383That is pretty strange. Maybe some kind of account issue.
>>503962280>I think the Kindle ecosystem is pretty locked down.it's actually trivially easy to de-DRM a kindle book and there are guides online
>>503964703>misses dair everytime.
>>503956134shitters who won tournaments with fleet need to have their results considered annulled when the nerf hits
>>503964792STOP THE COUNTHE FUCKING WON
mango just said zetter is bottom 2then he also said he's not a downplayer
>>503965030That guy who got last place at LACS?

>>695811368
>>503978365What?
>>503965850They realy nailed the "ravish me from behind you stinky dirt wolf" look
>Xanadu shutting downIt's ok, I was never gonna go anyway lol.
anyone else getting hella rollbacks recently
>>503999418Yeah, they switched to the cheaper server bandwidth package after the first month.Not a scam btw.
>>503997345who
>>504001838MDVA local. It was actually one of the biggest locals for Rivals in the US where top players like Cake would often drop by for it.
0 fun players in this game.
>>504004115Don't forget 0 fun characters (except Forsburn)
why are orcane and wrastor immune to cc
>>503966696I’d be curious to see this side by side with a tier list for characters in the entire tournaments.
>>504008251Every character is if you're smart, yes even Forsburn.
>>503965850Are you a zoomer?
I tried to input a forward tilt and a dash attack came out instead for the 4600th time.
What do you think is the order of the next FIVE characters they add to the game, and what will be their relative position on the tier list?
>>504011309Etalus - low Absa - highSylvanos - mid Mollo - lowWrestler ant - low
The rollback hiccups are unbearable. This is literally unplayable.
>>504011119I also struggle with this. And tilt stick feels wrong after a million years with smash stick,
>>504010560Etalus, BA brand spanking new nature-aligned reptile or mushroom character, AAbsa, S+Slade, ASylvanos, A+
>>504011526Mollo and Absa will rape this game because of how lame the engine and stages are. Etalus will be the worst character in the game because his ice will cover 1% of the stage and people will just camp him.
>>504013236>etalus>the one being camped and not the one camping
>>504011309Absa is obviously next because of the Christmas cookie.
>made a fleet only alt account for funsies and because his main is so high he can't find games>grinds to rank 2 on itwhat's wrong with him
>>504017580This is smurfing and wrong when it's Leffen, but it's based when it's Marlon.
>>504017580>what's wrong with himhes good
>>504017580Farming noobs on multiple accounts is cringe when leffen does it but based when Marlon does it. Why aren't the actual good rivals players playing ranked so having a high rating can matter?
>>504017580>there's no smurfing guys
>>503927936>>503928039Thoughts?
>>504021823>"""smurf""" account is the same rating as main accountThat's not smurfing.
>>504022608It is.
>>504022672Nope. Smurfing would be if he's Gold or even like Plat and farming lower people, then tanking his rating to stay there. Having 2 accounts that are the same rating is not smurfing.
>>504022770>It's not smurfing because I say soGoalpost status: Relocated.
>>504022840You're just shitposting for no reason and you don't even know what smurfing is.
>>504017580Nothing. Everything.
>>504023375Says the guy making up definitions for words on the fly.
>>504023543I'm using the original (real) definition of smurfing. All you are doing is shitposting for attention.
alright who decided kragg needs the best aerials in the game, strongs that kill at 60%, a command grab, the best projectiles in the game, and ranno-tier combo-into-anything ability
>>504024413Me. Cry about it.
>>504023762>I'm using the original (real) definition>that I googled and cherrypicked 10 minute ago

>>504026058>1:17Kek. Rival troons will defend that.
>>504026334>>504026419MeleeGAWD Hivemind
>upsmash kills at 100Better nerf the lion.
>>504026058He just needs some decent extra option for recovery.
rivals 1 recovery really was so much better
>>504026963its the same shit except theres no ledges on rivals 1 so it makes sense there
Melee (objectively, the game rivals 2 is copying) recoveries were so much better
>>504026058>grown man rages at a video toyYikes. Cringe.
>>504026334why the fuck does he get his wall jump back after being hit?this feels like it has to be a bug
>>504027109You wouldn't get it because you're low test.
>he's still shitposting for attention
it's too funny how kraggs enter a state of absolute panic when you tap them offstage
>>504027519Rivals1 players told me this game was fine, ermm wtf were they lying?
What's so good about putting tilts on your c-stick? Don't tell me you get to go Wrastor mode and just do running tilts with 0 execution?
>>504026334>hit off stage with fair>Lox makes it back>mid-length moonwalked charge shine>Lox makes it back>deep shine>Lox makes it back>random on stage fthrow into double fair>Lox finally diesWe LOVE Rivals 2!
>>504028114>>504027519Loxodont's forward special for some fucking reason doesn't cause him to freefall, allowing him to wall bounce.
>>504028397Dan's vision is everyone fishes for kill confirm flowcharts at 100% or looking for a stray hit at 200% to finish stocks. Edge guarding is icky and bigoted.
>>504027935so do you without a puddle
>>504028270it's easier to move your character and do tilts with the other stick than trying to move and tilt with the same stickfor example you can babydash to chain up tilts together without needing to worry about that input nightmare on a single stickif you want tilts out of a full dash you need to cancel the dash with a crouch first though
What's the lore reason?
>>504028883how do you do smash attacks with tilt stick?
>>504029014the strong button?
>>504028978left would look fucking creepy as a model so they changed it
>>504029061what are you gonna bind that to on a gcc? x?
>>504029069fair, he's cute either way
>>504028781Just like the best Smash game ever made, Super Smash Bros Ultimate for the Nintendo Switch!
>>504028883I use my dpad for babydashes.
>>504029191idk i don't use that old hunk of junk, it's missing a shoulder button too
>>504029275and? you're still needing to input both the tilt direction and the babydash with one hand if you lack tilt stick
>>504029191>what are you gonna bind that to on a gcc? x?Whichever button you do not use to jump, yeah.
why cant you just do a smash with a+direction
>>504029402It seems like they deliberately designed it so that every character in the game can go from the literal bottom of the blast zone to the ledge. Not even melee Sheik (who was the queen of going deep) could go THAT low in melee.
>>504029770you can, there's an option for that, but it'll inevitably lead to misinputs
Clairen minus the time stop gimmick with a bigger sword.
>>504030032i want a smash, tilt stick, stick aerials
>>504027870
>>504029845And that's Clairen. She has a "bad" recovery, yet she didn't need to use 4 air dodges, 3 walljumps, 2 side B's, and a partridge in a pear tree.>>504030321>unironically asking for smult DLC characters
>>504034825What does this post mean?
i still havent adapted to parry being like frame 7 instead of 2fuck orcane
someone post the easier tiltboost video
The only people still playing trash game are absolute fucking bottom feeders. Stop fucking picking fire temple and camping, it's CASUAL. Dan you are a fucking queer for making such an awful game. GOD.
Edge guarding won't be buffed in the December patch. This game already had half a year of play tests and the rival troons and Dan never thought for a second anything was wrong with the game.
>>504034825who
>kragg keeps hitting me with some stupid side b jump cancel to up strong confirm>ok i guess i'll block that>do so>it destroys my shield instantlythis seems fine
>>504044254If mang0 was a play tester this game would be better than melee
>>504045481a lot of people say thatmang0 says that
>>504047880I don't think mang0's voice that edge guarding should be a thing in this game would be able to overpower Dan's vision of this game being a slightly better Ultimate.
>>504047775you can shield the ball then parry the upstrong bro
I got the VNs. Decided I'm not gonna leak them because the rivalstranny has been excessively obnoxious for a long time.I love the shitty .jpg quality.
>tranny profile pic >fleeteverytime
how the fuck do you kill as orcane? none of my shit other than strongs feels like it kills until 150, and none of my shit seems to combo into my strongs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPVQ0QCwO3o
>>504051047For me it's always either fleet or zetterburn
>>504051638Bair kills early but its such a fucking roll if you're going to hit the smallest hitbox on 2nd hit. You can punish bad recoveries with ehanced fsmash offstage you can upair or bubblebutt as you can always recover to the puddle. He has quite alright throws too.
>>504053697enhanced fstrong hasn't been doing anything for me, i even tried to use it against straight horizontal recovery (forsburn side special) and it didn't hit him somehowdidn't think to try bubblebutt offstage, have mostly been going for nair, will give it a shotback throw can kill at like 150 sure
Rivals 2 is fun but every game I play is a sweatfest, which isn't always what I'm looking for. Oh well.
>>504054009Yeah I dropped it for this reason.

mang0 playing Orcane on ranked even though it tanks his ELO.Rivalstrannies will call him washed because they don't understand playing a video game for FUN.
>>504054495Us Orcane CHADS are the most honest of them all.
mang0 is carrying rivals 2 on his back
Mang0 is about to realize that Orcane is more like Melee Fox than Shitterburn is.
god, orcane vs clairen feels fucking miserable. i have no idea what i'm supposed to do if she just does retreating jabs. beats my projectile, beats any ground or short hop approach i can do, and if i try to full hop she up tilts instead

Can one of you tards tell mang0 to hitfall lmao? I'm cucked out of chatting for 10 minutes.
>>504059986He went into practice one time with Zetterburn to hitfall. He knows it exists, he's probably just brute forcing Melee (and doing very well at it)
>>504055781CoolI never understand people who play exclusively one character.
>>504060287i play exclusively one character because im too lazy to attempt trying the other ones. on the rare occasions where i do try another character i just think to myself "this is time i could be spending getting better at my main"
>>504060287i like playing multiple characters but almost every rivals character is gay as shit besides orcanesucks this game is just furry bait nonsense when it comes to character designs.
>they'll come back... they always do... i-its just taking a bit longer this time... any day now...
>>504061183based counting retard
>>504011957its so awesome when i hear a hit sound only for it too rollback into a shield and im getting grabbed
Why not just go ahead and post the patch notes? It would give the community something to talk about and anticipate. Doing it day of is kind of retarded. Even the Tekken Devs give you a bit of notice when they drop their patches.
>mang0 switches to Orcane>actually has fun>calls zetter boring and linearHe doesn't miss.
>>504062849They will do it tomorrow.
>>504063827No they won't.
>>504061183it's baffling hax refuses to try rivals 2. why does he let himself submit to dark triad leffen shit when he could just play rivals 2 and be free from all that gay shit?
>>504065003he cant play his little cheater character in rivals 2
>>504065167Zetter is more busted than melee fox and a LOT more boring.

>>504067108Rivals 2 needs a comfy stage that feels lived in
Fox is a better character than any Rivals 2 character and it's not close. Kragg would get wave shine infinited. Ranno would get rushed the fuck down and drilled to death. Wrastor would get up air chained into death. He also just runs circles around every character because of his ground speed, aerial momentum, fast and gigantic hitboxes, and his oppressive full hop mixups, And he even gets to have the best anti camping tool in the game with his fuck you lasers. God I wish Fox could rape this trash game to death. It's what it deserves. Fox if you can hear me, please save me.

>>504079020cope
>>504068343>>504069046There was a chat during demo week I think. Lud came into chat and mang0 said something like "sponsor me to play this game" and Lud was like "hmm... deal". So he wasn't originally sponsored to play the game. This might have been something that happened at LACS.
>>504080183What is this schizopost?
>>504080374It's not a schizo post. At some point early on, Ludwig went into mang0's stream while he was streaming and mang0 asked Lud to sponsor him to play the game, and Ludwig said "deal"
>>504080498Do you believe this?
>>504081169Do I believe something that actually happened? Yes.Do I believe that it was 100% real talk? I didn't, but now with mang0 saying he got paid $250k by Lud to play the game for a year, the dots are adding up, not subtracting.
>>504081308Then you're schizo posting.
>>504081360Do you even know what "schizo" means? You're starting to sound like the schizo to me. Why do you consider me saying something true to be """schizo""" posting?
is orcane vs clairen just a hopeless matchup or am i missing something? i have no way to get past her disjoints at all, my projectile loses to them, none of my pitiful approach options work, and she can cover all of my recovery options easily with fstrong

mang0 is the only relevant person streaming rivals 2. without him you would just see literalwho channels with viewcounts like 70, 50, 52, 56, 2, 4, 1, and then 341 (void). the game would already be dead as far as twitch.tv viewership goes. no one cares about any of the rivals1 pros. mang0 is probably the only reason this game still gets 2k+ 24 hour peaks. without mang0 the 24 hour peaks would be close to 3 digits already. mang0 is literally the only reason thousands of people are still playing this game. people literally play this game because mang0 said it was cool on stream.
>>504085645i didn't ask for you to post the clip again.
Your kickstarter neet bux are lining Ludwig's pockets. Literally not a single top player is streaming this for free. It's all astroturfed.>>504085823I can post it thrice if you fancyhttps://www.twitch.tv/mang0/clip/UninterestedDullNigiriVoteNay-G1I7EalyM6c-tKi1
>>504085917okay i feel relieved knowing it's just being used as flame war ammo rather than a genuine figure anyone believes.
>>504086206I genuinely believe it, and I'm not the guy who posted the clip, nor was I watching the stream at this time.
I fundamentally do not understand this game. I've played for 100 hours, yet I don't feel that I've improved at all. If anything, I feel worse than when I started. Everyone else is faster than me, better at linking moves than me, better at killing than me. It often feels like I'm wearing a heavy suit of armor while the rest of the players are naked. And I just don't get... why.It's not from lack of experience. I've well over 10,000 hours in other fighters / platform fighters. I've ranked high in them, even. But something about this game is beyond me.
the rivals community does not want rivals 2 to be popular and i dont understand why. wouldnt it be nice if there were more than 18 people at your tournaments, 15 of them either being trans or a chaser? dont you want better for your community? all rivals pros have to do is start streaming ranked sets and be open to smashies ideas on how to improve the game.
>>504086206Shut up bitch nigga.
>>504086392Post a replay>>504086440>the rivals community does not want rivals 2 to be popular and i dont understand why.Try going three posts without gravitating to idpol shit and other ad hominems and maybe people won't treat you like a leper.
>>504086646>Post a replayWhat, you think I've just got one of those on hand? That'd take well over an hour to upload somewhere.
>>504086440>wouldnt it be nice if there were more than 18 people at your tournaments, 15 of them either being trans or a chaser?Nope! We do not want this. We like out tranny groomer circle, thank you very much.
>>504086692Don't worry I didn't expect you to post a replay. Everyone who comes in here crying about how they're not improving refuses to engage when people offer to review their gameplay. This is a thread for venting upon losses, not for meaningful discussion.
>>504086646>Try going three posts without gravitating to idpol shit and other ad hominems and maybe people won't treat you like a leper.i dont understand this reply. are you suggesting you're killing your own scene to pwn the shitposters? i dont know what else to get from your reply
>>504086757>tell someone to do something that takes over an hour for a stranger>they say no>complainYou must be fun at parties.
>>504086692uh oh, rivalstranny meltie
>>504086871not him but just record a replay and upload it to this site it does not take an hour it takes like 5-8 minuteshttps://streamable.com/
>>504086956No, it doesn't. I've uploaded replays before. 1 hour is generous.
>>504086871>tell someone to do something that takes over an hour for a strangerI'm not that guy, but are you just shitposting? Like, is this entire charade of your just a shitpost? The uploading of the replay would be for YOUR benefit, not the random stranger's. >"""You must be fun at parties."""This phrase has literally never been uttered by anyone who actually attends parties. You've never been to a party, anon. Which one is worse? Not being """fun""" at parties (as deemed by an annoying shitter) or being a loser who doesn't even get invited?
>>504087016idk i think its a you problem, it takes 5-8 minutes for me to record a full game and upload it to that site
>>504086871What are you talking about? "Do something that takes an hour" it's uploading a video clip, you're not standing there working for an hour you just hit upload and come back later. Or you could take 15 seconds to find the replay file, throw it on catbox, and post the link.
>>504087040>>504087084I'm in a shit mood after some guy destroyed me for 2 hours. As in I didn't win a single time. There were close games, but never a win. The last thing I want to do is launch the game, record it, upload it, and have a bunch of people clown on me. But it looks like I'm getting that regardless.
>>504087274then you arent looking to improve, looks like this guy is right >>504086757
>>504087274I don't know, maybe you're right. You're wasting your time with us. You should invest $50 for a professional VOD review from Hax$, the legendary Fox player.
>>504087359All of my efforts to improve have already failed. The most braindead masher can take games off of me if I'm not playing at 100%. Pretty much just lost and despondent at this point.
>>504087518so post a replay. maybe we can help
>>504087565I don't have one on hand. Nor time to get one. I'm going to bed in half an hour.
>>504087274You're circling the drain, anon. Round and round, over and over. Just go to sleep or something. Or stop shitposting.
>>504087616ok well next time you're playing the game just press y to save any replay after the match ends and upload it to that website another time. it doesnt have to be right now
is there such a thing as a "slow" character in this game? in similar games i've never really liked being aggressive, forcing openings, chasing down the opponent, etc. more of a "punish approaches, outmaneuver, outplay" enjoyer. but every character i've tried seems like the former.
>>504088305>i want to zone and make people approachlox>i want to whiff punish and be all fundies-basedfors
>>504088449i tried lox for a good while but he doesn't seem very good at that sort of style. his frame data isn't really good enough to keep people at bay, so he needs to be aggro.fors is definitely aggressive as hell, so that's a no too.
>>504088305in a perfect world it would've been the heavies
>>504088305>in similar games i've never really liked being aggressive, forcing openings, chasing down the opponent, etc. more of a "punish approaches, outmaneuver, outplay" enjoyer.>but every character i've tried seems like the former.This is a defensive game, anon. This is not a sick game like Melee. Edge guarding doesn't exist, and shields are too good. All characters are "punish approaches", because that's what this game is. You do not generally get rewarded for approaching or making plays. You are most generally rewarded by sitting still and doing nothing and hoping that your opponent is Meleepilled and tries to actually play the game while you sit there and punish them for it.
>>504088624yeah they do not seem slow in the slightest, watching tournament play of them they're just as fast and in-your-face as everyone elseweird design choice>>504088685idk what you're talking about all of my opponents are crackheads moving at mach 5 and regularly edgeguarding me
>>504088747i know heavies arent slow here. in every other fighting game/platform fighter heavies are slow and its what i meant. heavies are supposed to be slow and in this game they arent for some reason.
>>504088862>heavies are supposed to be slow and in this game they arent for some reason.Dan says that heavies are balanced because they are easier to hit than smaller and lighter characters.
>>504088587Fors doesn't have to be played aggressively
>>504088969>dan says the big characters are bigwoah...
>>504089120I'm sorry, rivalstranny. That's just what Dan says.
>>504088862Is that a bad thing?
>>504091149Yes but noYes because it means less variety in kinds of characters to pick No because at least they're balanced
I play Forsburn and Wrastor. What does that say?
>>504107250youre a fag
>>504088862>aren't for some reasonBecause Dan isn't a hack and realizes giving a character slow movement speed and poor frame data makes them inherently bad.Their greatest weaknesses should be having a large hurtbox and *maybe* a more exploitable recovery.
Does orcane's aerial neutral b have more lag than his down b? I noticed people tend to do down b when b reversing in the air. I'd rather do neutral b if I can because down b reverse is an annoying input.
>>504107279Most Wrastor players probably are gay so that's a fair assessment
>>504107250Honest neutral enjoyer
I want Absa already I need a proper zoner. Lox with his useless projectile people can just dash under is not cutting it
>>504110135kragg desu
I love Kass!

Post the god damn patch notes already so I can know if I need to nuke this trash game from my library and go find something else to do with my time. Dan won't do it because he wants to cling to these last 5 minutes of fame. This entire game was just a dine and dash and he knows it.
sooooooo excited for smelees to finally fuck off next week. i DO NOT care if the game "dies"
>>504119608smelee falseflag
>>504119608>>504120072transparent rivalstranny shitpost
>>504120072falseflag or not (likely not) that is a real opinion held by most rivals players
>>504120072>>504120208>>504120559i am that poster and can confirm the noise surrounding this game i enjoy is so loud and displeasing, i would genuinely prefer if a huge chunk of its playerbase dropped it en masse. leaked notes are real and despite being a step in the right direction, it won't be nearly enough. only a matter of a few days' wait before my ideals are realized.
I just beat a plat player for the first time
>>504121273I'm pretty sure Dan wants more people playing his game
>>504121273The real problem is that you spend too much time online obsessing over nothing and nobody.Genuinely go outside, take a walk, breathe some fresh air, and stop being a faggot.
>try my best to get good at this game>my best isn't good enough>the only character i can play with a modicum of success is ranno
my hands sweat like 10 times more than usual for some reason now its making me quit this game wtf do i do
So no more twitch drops?
>>504126741Same. I just fan my hands in between matches.
>>504128925it's gotten to the point where it feels like my hands are literally just wet between every stock
spotdodging is the most unfun mechanic in any platform fighter ever
>>504119608Unfortunately, this is a real opinion that people here have. Rivalstrannies would rather this be a discord fighter so that they can lure unsuspecting minors into their grooming rooms to spread the HRT disease. It's the exact same thought process as the people who knowingly spread their STDs to as many people as they can.
>>504128043The game's done and the grift is dead. Hence why the servers have gone to shit and there's radio silence on the patch. We all got duped.
>>504130953what is going on did i get into rivals at the wrong time
>>504133093The December 3rd patch will reveal all. Maybe the game will start getting good soon, or maybe it will only get good after literally everyone leaves so they finally start turning it into Melee... or maybe it will never be good.
>>504133093no, it'll keep a dedicated community for years to come
>>504133595Rival 1 players would rather just play the original because it's a better game mechanically and it has the workshop for casuals. I wouldn't be surprised if Rivals 2 straight up goes to single digits if the patch is anything short of a miracle.
>>504134272lol
>>504133093Speaking honestly, the games perfectly fine. Looks good, plays good.Shields are annoying and the ledges make edgeguarding harder, but it really ain't bad. Just different.The salt doth floweth, and that is the natural state of things.
Melee always wins.
>>504134931this is fine actually>>504029402>>504026334
Rivals 2 if fun if you and you're opponent aren't trans and both run at each other 24/7 like the game has a Guilty Gear negative penalty system.
>>504135271It is.
There should be a feral male horse character, you know, so that, haha, people draw porn of the female characters getting fucked by the stallion. Not because I want to be fucked by a stallion or anything and just want more horse porn to self-insert as.
bros im starting to think marlon getting soft cancelled set us back meta wise. r1 has almost zero players with public personas and decent streams. even less so that actually like r2 enough to play it, so there's a vast wealth of knowledge that just doesn't see the light of day. all we've been exposed to is lame or easy shit that wins, like fleet kragg and ranno, but then i watch marlon play and he consistently pulls out shit i've never seen on underrepresented characters like zetter orcane maypul and wrastor
>>504026334yes
>>504136110Why do you hate fun?
>>504138234Monumental glazing aside, I do get what you're saying. The cancer shit would still be cancer though, it just wouldn't feel like the meta's so "solved" at the moment.
>>504026334>Lox in a slow fall after side B>Mango grabs ledge instead of fast fall down air spikeI thought you guys said this dude was a chad, may as well just parry the up b
>>504138234Maybe they should have thought of that before being racist/homophobic/transphobic.
>>504139397Erm akshully Marlon was being a creepy sick fuck and flirting with a trans woman in the wrong way.
so did he make a tier list?
really cool how wrastor can just hit my shield with aerials and be 15 miles out of punishment range because he flies around at mach 5
>>504139724I'd be interested to hear what King Chaser has to say on the state of recovering and edge guarding in this game.
>>504139878>Wrastor players try to approach me>I hit them with my big fuck you axeI get edgeguarded for free but boy is neutral fun as Lox against the characters who need to get past the hatewall.
>>504140337he's been saying certain options are too strong, (funnily enough orcane side b ledge invulnerability was one of them) but for the most part he's fine with the state of edgeguarding right now. i've heard them talking about wall techs going away on his stream though and i feel like that's kind of a dreadful change if true.
>>504138234Marlon will be back shortly. Zetter is not underrepresented, but the other three you mentioned are insanely good characters, and it’s wacky that very few players are willing to put in the time to learn them, or to learn the matchups they complain about. Frankly, it’s bizarre. It would be truly sad if the game simply dies before the Meta truly develops. Right now everyone wants to play the braindead characters, or they’re begging Dan to make their characters braindead in the next patch. Just give it a little time, people.
>>504140987>Zetter is not underrepresente-
>>504140926>i've heard them talking about wall techs going away on his stream thoughI would love playing a patch with this implemented just to see what it's like, but every single stage is designed for wall teching/jumping to be a thing, so I doubt it would ever go away.
I keep seeing this weird phenomenon where people do like 90% of an edgeguard, and then it’s like they think to themselves “I’ve done enough” and stop. You’re so close. Maybe the other guy has one mixup left, or one more boost of upward momentum. But don’t just whine, finish the job. You’re this close to the end zone; don’t give up now.
>>504141220That’s in top 8There are a lot of zetter players, they just aren’t doing that well currently.
>>504141596>I keep seeing this weird phenomenon where people do like 90% of an edgeguard, and then it’s like they think to themselves “I’ve done enough” and stop.I think it's more like they get tired of "killing" multiple times and don't want to press their luck any more for fear of a reversal.
>>504141905because the character is dogshit
>>504141596It's just boring. We all like our game to require skill, but in the edgeguarding department its just so painfully boring we'd rather just have braindead easy melee edgeguards where you live if you do the correct thing and you die if you do the incorrect thing in one edgeguard interaction and not 13 back to back edgeguard interactions that last 15 seconds every time. It's such a daunting experience and video games should be fun. Also reversals are easily possible, so much so that it feels free as fuck for the opponent every time and whenever it happens you just feel like you've been robbed, it's always a very lame experience and video games should be more fun
>>504141596There's just more levels to edgeguarding in this game than what's considered standard. Even R1, where the recoveries are comparable didn't have to worry about the second layer of safety in ledge. That additional effort leads people to believe they CAN'T get edgeguards or that the risk isn't worth giving up stage control or the opportunity for a reversal. People also don't really know what the fuck they're doing once they go offstage if I'm being honest. So many edgeguards dropped because players go for spikes in the safest possible spot, usually extremely close to the wall.
>>504142573Probably because DIing and teching a spike is way fucking harder in melee so people are used to doing them close to the ledge. Like if you can eat a Falco dair by the ledge and DI into the wall and tech you're pretty fucking good. Meanwhile this shit is just free.
>>504141952>>504142381I won’t say you’re wrong for wanting it to be simpler, and maybe the patch will do exactly that. It’s just weird to see people right on the cusp, but unwilling to do the one last step. Sometimes there isn’t even any risk involved. It’s almost like out of principle the edgeguarder is like “no, he should be dead already. I’m not gonna grab ledge, too.” or whatever the final step happens to be.
>>504143761>It’s almost like out of principle the edgeguarder is like “no, he should be dead already. I’m not gonna grab ledge, too.” or whatever the final step happens to be.Nah, I'm telling you man, it's what I said. Just the inevitability of getting reversaled. "I've killed him like 5 times, I'll just sit on the stage like it's Ultimate now and wait for him to come back that way I'm not the idiot who died at 50% trying to (honestly) fish for a kill against someone who is 150%"
>>504143616Yeah, that muscle memory fucks people over hard in this game. They could stand to make launch angles on spikes a lot shallower but spikes themselves are ridiculously easy to hit already. Unironically, they were nerfed a lot from the first Kickstarter patch, because they trivialized offensive offstage play. That's why you see them sending people nowhere even at 70%
tips for improving? i know i need to grab more often. also feel like i get grabbed a lot, but i'm not too sure how to improve on that. spotdodging seems ineffective, my opponent can usually just shield before i can actually punish ithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7UdO8l3Fbg
>>504144579are you the ranno or the zetter
>>504144869zett
>>504144579Here's a tip: stop playing Zetter. He's quite literally the only character you can consistently edge guard in a game with insane recoveries. He's got short, stubby, and inactive hitboxes with not enough speed compared to the rest of the cast to make up for it. Pickup Ranno and you will understand what good buttons feels like
>>504150218i'm aware, i'm an ex-ranno main, dude has hitboxes the size of a city bus. but zetter is the only character i really enjoy playing
>>504150395This game fucking sucks lmao. 6 Months worth of Betas and Ranno is still this fucking broken? I heard he has gotten nerfed in every update too. How about just don't fucking make characters that are inherently retarded.
>>504151360i asked for advice on how to improve not doomposting
>>504151457Sorry I was just reacting to your WEBM. Didn't really read your posts. Something about wanting to improve as a Zetter? Yeah fuck Zetter. I dropped him for the Elephant. At least Elephant has big ass buttons.
I don't understand what this is https://x.com/platfight/status/1862594760965595304
>>504151718i'm on my stubby ineffective attacks arc
>>504144579You did like 4 smash attacks the entire game, 3 of them missed, and they were all up smash.You often shield for no reason after landing a hit instead of continuing to apply pressure.
>>504152214zetter's fstrong is only really good for calling out obvious approaches / recoveries imo. and down strong only seems good for tech chase situations. i'm usually better at landing my up strongsgoing unga bunga with zetter is just asking to get parried, his frame data isn't good enough to keep up pressure against good players
Finally learned how to Edgeguard in this game.It somehow made the game feel worse and unfun.It's not worth the effort, they can still get very easy reversals.
I'm so close to plat... so close...
>>504152603I don't know what to tell you bro, you landed 1 smash attack on a character about applying burn then smashing. Zetters smashes are fast and good. 140% Ranno is in landing lag next to you on the stage, that's an automatic smash not jump neutral air, the guy only loses the stock by SD. You also let your opponent do whatever they want by shielding nothing, you're gonna get grabbed a lot.
>>504155674dstrong has fast startup, but the hitboxes are awkward, and it has a ton of recovery time if it whiffs. fstrong is not fast at all, frame 17 is the first active hitbox
>>504144579I'm a bit of a noob myself but the first thing i noticed is you don't move around enough, which makes it really easy to get hits on you. Also you need to learn zetter bread and butter combos and you don't use Nair enough.
>>504156052Yeah ok keep not using 2/3 of your smash attacks and don't play aggressive rush down on Zetterburn of all fucking characters your gameplay clip is flawless. Definitely don't switch to Lox fucks are going to be living to 250%.
>>504157870i am a bit too immobile yeah. my mind seems to be locked on hunkering down rather than staying on the move. guess i'll try to work on that >>504157916you can't just tell me to use awkward / slow moves without explaining how, anon. i never see other zetters use them either, be they online or in tournaments, outside of tech chase scenarios. so your advice is both vague and unfounded
>>504161079>you can't just tell me to use awkward / slow moves without explaining how, anon.Yes I can so.
>Play Ranno>get to platinum easily>Switch to Wrastor>can't escape silveri am genuinely considering quitting this game over this why the FUCK is this character so SHITTY
>>504166347takes actual effort to pilot
>>504166347Ranno needs to be deleted from the roster.
>>504166347Learn follows ups and you'll git gud.
>>504166347wrastor is top 3, you were simply carried by the training wheels character
>>504161079>Zetterburn using smash attacks is vague and unfounded>only threw 4 up and landed 1 anyway What advice do you want, you don't want to learn the characters fundies like its literal gimmick. Tournament Zetters use up smash more, down smash more, and still throw side smash when they can, and they're playing against the best players in the world not silvers that give about 2000 more openings like the one I mentioned. This is starting to feel like a troll to whinge about the character. >>504163853>replying as meoh ok I'm being trolled
>>504166585>>504166656>>504166797>>504166990LITERALLY HOW? Unless I'm fighting loxodont or forsburn every single fucking character in this game just rapes my wrastor. I feel like I have to win 10x as many fucking interactions just to confirm kills as this shit-ass character. Comboing as him is a total pain in the fucking ass because opponents will ALWAYS DI out of range, even with slipstream buff. And don't even get me STARTED on if you make the mistake of letting your opponent get to 140%+, then you won't expect to kill them until fucking 200%. It takes me less than a minute to take a stock with ranno and it consistently takes 2 minutes to take a stock with wrastor, this character fucking SUCKS and I HATE HIM
>>504166347>get plat with a character that nearly plays itself>can't get plat with character that at least takes a shred of character specific execution and matchup knowledge
>>504150395ahaha would that have covered techroll to ledge
>>504167258what's your strong attack scheme?
Winter event trailer is live.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njAjXGehkW8
>>504167258Don't give up on wrastor. You just need to actually learn something for once in your life
>>504168425>no Santa Loxodont throwing coalCongratulations, it's shit.
>>504168425Patch notes though?
>>504168702Why were so many people expecting patch notes? It's just 4 days bro simply wait.
>>504168425OMG MOAR SKINS ::OOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
>>504168878A competent dev posts patch notes a few days in advance. Holding off on it means they are either waiting till the last minute and/ or are insecure about their decisions. Not a good look.
>>504167116>still not giving examples>acts like HE'S the one being trolleddon't try to give advice if you don't have any
>>504168693it's the White Elephant gift exchange bro
>>504169509They're probably still tweaking right up to the patch release or day before.I'm hoping that they don't fuck it up. The game is pree gud other than some slight balance shit.
>>504169963bad list
>>504168425>Ranno skin number 30>Kragg skin number 30>another ugly Fors skin only gay furries will like>low effort Lox reskin It's shit.
>>504169946slightly based desu but i'd still have taken santa lox over this
>>504169963Wrastor's up b has gotta go.>b-but le epic scraaaShut up troon.
>>504171181this nigga cant space well
>>504168425Orcane bros...They can't keep getting away with this
>>504169637>gave a direct example of when was safe to smash but you went for short hop neutral air>not giving examples I'm not watching your shitty gameplay to again to timestamp every misplay 1/4 and refusing to use your kit speaks for itself. Mention getting grabbed constantly, get told to stop shielding nothing and play more aggro, you reply with "Zetterburn is bad at pressure", fuck off retard.
>>504171514Mods will save him
>>504171561>i'm too retarded to parry so zetter shield pressure must be good!k
>>504171382why do their tongues look like bird dicks
>>504068343So just 11 months to go...
>>504171382It's not even the fact it's an obnoxious out of shield kill move that's so good that it's capable reliably countering zetterburn shine pressure (You're defending this BTW). It's the fact that it's a retarded DI mixup at any point during a juggle that will kill you at like 70% if you fucking dared to tilt your stick in the opposite direction of wrastor for a nanosecond. Sorry. He just doesn't need that.
>>504171754Why do you.... nvm
>>504172105>countering zetterburn shine pressureAnd nothing of value was lost
>>504171739>too retarded to use shine, Zetterburns best move >says he has bad shield pressure lmao holy fuck
>>504172225Maybe give that ability to a character that actually needs it like the Elephant or Hyena. I don't think the secret best character in the game needs to have a hard counter to Zetter's only strength going for him.
>>504172420that's not real pressure mouthbreather
i'm so skeptical about the next patch. i believe the leaks are real, but they came out mid-november so it'd really fucking suck if there weren't more changes going from that draft to launch. holding out hope for a shield grab nerf, personally.
Zetter vs Clairen is the worst matchup in the fucking game. Change my mind. I literally cannot do anything against her massive disjoints.
>>504173721Post rank
>>504121736nice man keep it up
>>504168425I main Forsburn but I just want the gas mask skin so thankfully I don't feel inclined to buy anything, I can just do the event and get a neat Lox
>>504173721Lox vs Ranno. Lox literally can't recover unless he has a fart charged. Rival fags will imply that melee has its jank MUs but that shit straight up feels just as bad if not worse than Ness trying to Recover vs Sheik.
what is zetter's best low% throw option? feels like up and down never lead into anything
What's the best way to get a standing grab out of a dash? Shield first?
>>504179424jump cancel grabyou go jump and then grab really fast before you can get your short hop out
>>504179547Gotcha. Thanks.
>>504179547Is there even any difference between a dash grab and a normal grab in this game? I remember messing with it in training and the animations looked identical.
>>504179706hitbox size and endlag i'm assumingi haven't tested anything but it feels like that's the casethere's also pivot grabs which i think have the biggest hitbox
>>504179706Dash grabs are much laggier. Standing grabs are generally better.
Friday night, active generalIts never dead when you all self improve and celebrate over biological women and Chads playing this fun game, or when one Hispanic bro who smells of FLORAS FRESCAS Y PERFUME ELEGANTE makes a lobby for everyone to have a good timeI love every one of you and I wish you a long, healthy life.
I havent opened this game in like a week.
>>504183605I too am waiting for Dec 3rd
edgeguarding with charged pulse is so satisfying
>>504150395his dsmash on platforms is fucking brainless. fix this shit sakurai
>>504139724no
>>504184443Yeah, but only viable on Zett because of the timing/recovery.
>>504186318nah it's viable on anyone, especially if you catch them before they start their recovery move. really big hitbox
where can i get a replacement gamecube stick cap
>>504187350At the hardware store, $5 for a roll of duct tape.
>>504187350I dont know. ebay?
>>504187350Just replace the control stick. It'll be much easier to find a replacement that way

>>504195406nah i'm still having fun, glad doomposters are roping though
Why does over half the roster have some gay fucking gimmick mechanic that they rely on. this is the reason I don't play ultimate bro just give me some basic moves with hitboxes. No tethers, command grabs, bubbles, invisibility or any of that gay shit. Probably just gonna go back to melee unless they comepletely redesign the entire game miraculously. But they won't because 90% of the playerbase is so obsessed with hating nintendo that they refuse to criticize many baffling design choices made by Dan
>>504199719>smelee player infuriated that a game is not smeleeshockingtake a shower
>>504199719>Probably just gonna go back to melee unless they comepletely redesign the entire game yeah i don't think that they're getting rid of the 1 thing that makes this game unique
>>504200349thats what makes rivals 2 unique? thats uhh..... not much, ya know

>>504207002Why not?Laughing feels good.
wifi maypuls really mash dash attack + her 50-foot strongs and think they're good
>>50420858580% of my dash attacks were supposed to be a forward tilt/uptilt. it's literally just the game fucking me over
>>504209320Wavedash
>>504209320hold crouch before you do them dummy
>>504206036it's especially annoying on fire capital where you have to play kragg pong for 5+ minutes
>>504209583>>504209770This is the first I'm hearing of these options but I need to see exactly how this gets my character to do what I want them to do in a real match because this on paper just sounds like slowing your character down just to get your character to correct thing. Sounds like bad game design.
>>504210142crouching into a tilt barely slows you down at all, you don't even see the crouch animation, just hold down for like half a second and you're free to do any tilt out of the dashof course this is easiest if you're using tilt stick like a sane human
>>504210142Open training mode and see your options in framebyframe mode
>>504210264I'll try this but it still sounds 100x dumber than L cancelling. Why can't I just tilt forward and press my button? What exactly is the need for this extra step?
>>504210527you may as well be asking "why can't i down strong out of shield" or "why can't i cancel a jab into a dash attack"the answer is the game wasn't designed that way, you aren't supposed to have every option at your fingertips during any action. being too actionable out of a dash makes dashing in and pressing shit without thinking too strong. having conditions to doing things out of dash makes you use that noggin of yours.
>>504210803How exactly does it compare to melee? I mention melee because it's the smash I'm familiar with. Why does it make sense to ftilt whenever I want without accidentally dash attacking on melee but on Rivals 2 its too op and needs the crouch? Is it because of the buffer system being in place in rivals 2?
>>504211305do i look like i know about your dusty 23 year old game, grandpa?

>>504223214They released the most lore crucial character in the canon alongside the guy who has literally nothing other than "He lives in a swamp i guess" lol
So has anyone actually done Arcade on Hard without Continues because I usually need like 3
>>504224140Clairen and Ranno are dlc you retarded newfag>>504224468literally nobody cares about "lore"slop
>>504224505I don't feel like grinding arcade mode until it's more finished, but it did kick my ass the few runs I tried day1.
Forgive me for sounding like a meleefag but this game unironically should design itself around 4 stocks instead of 3. 3-stock matches in this game last just as long as melee 4-stock matches, and all the extra time taken up by those longer stock interactions is usually frustrating and boring (super high percent poke-offs)
>>504195406all newbies got stomped out by sweaties, tale as old as time for any fighting game.
Mang0 is so right about grabs being fucking lame. Why did they even put them in Rivals 2? Not having them in Rivals 1 was such a bold and awesome decision. Did Dan watch melee Sheik and see her spamming grab and really think, "You know what Rivals needs shit like this"
>>504225238I'm in favor of 4 when being off stages becomes perilous. Right now games would take sooooo fucking long.
>>504226094Grabs are sick, they just need to nerf the 50/50s into kills
Wrastor feels like he's designed for smash ultimate players
Evil Mang0 be like: I love white people.
>>504226849You sound like you're getting stumped and are making shit up to feel better about not getting him
Does Ranno have a single match up where he's even remotely uncomfortable? Wrastor if Marlon is playing him? I want to be a Lox main, but that match up is unwinnable so I'm looking for some kind of secondary. It seems like no character actually counters him.
>>504224910Oh you meant them adding RoA1 dlc characters. Who cares?
>>504230952only the original 6 are good, anything after is degenerate slop that should be taken out back and shot
>>504231015
>>504232710correct.
it's uphttps://youtu.be/2rtW13lAJp8
nintendo sweatniggers ruined the game, it's over
>>504229181>*crickets chirp*Nice game, Dan. December 3rd can't come soon enough.
Imagine if Ranno was a year 4 DLC character and we got something cool on the base roster like Etalus or Absa instead.

>play the game again after 5 days of a break>lose 1153->1009 elo its fucking over
>>504229181He struggles against Fleet due to her just barely being able to run him down with good spacing and she has solid edgeguarding routes to close out stocks. Clairen is his next worst matchup after that because the midrange demon beats his relatively close-ranged buttons and also has good edgeguarding routes but not as good as Fleet's. It's not even remotely what you would consider to be "uncomfortable" though. Both are very doable, but they still win even if only slightly.
>>504246942rivals is too easy for it to be acceptable to struggle after a break, you're just trash
>>504246942it's ok if you truly deserved that rating you'll get it back
>>504229181Ranno hates disjoints. Fleet and Clairen haunt his nightmares because he can't mindlessly spam his excellent frame data in their direction without losing his toes. If they keep swinging he struggles to do anything.
Future #1 Rivals 2 player finally coming home!
>>504250247yes fighting bots for a month has surely made him the god gamer
>>504250395thats how he plays every game hes good at
>>504251080such as...
>>504250395He also has been autistically reviewing every tournament set and talking to top players daily. I watched him review a set from Evil Nardwuar and his analysis was excellent, he completely picked up on all of his habits and gave suggestions on what to correct. M2K will probably at least be a Leffen tier player if not better.
>>504251141every smash installment
>>504251307i watched his zetterburn video for 20 seconds and he said he "doesn't really use" zetter's shinehe doesn't know how to play this game>>504251327he hasn't performed at a top level in those in several years
>>504251446Zetter's shine is actually pretty ass the higher up you get. You can floor hug it and asmah tech it in perpetuity basically. Actually watch him review a tournament set. You're gonna be surprised at his level of analysis. He takes notes on every little autistic detail to the point where he has a text doc where he will write player habits down. Like he'll go hmm Cake is as good at CCing at the average melee player and lets Leffen get away with some stuff. *opens word doc and makes note of that*
>>504251848>Zetter's shine is actually pretty ass the higher up you get. You can floor hug it and asmah tech it in perpetuity basicallythat's only relevant if you try to chain them together like a mashing monkey, nobody is holding down on the first hit and it can lead into a combo
>>504252060yeah funnily enough, the level of utility of zetter shine flattens out around midlevel where you just learn how to waveshine/multishine and then increases again at high level, where you start to utilize shine kill confirms and shine edgeguards. it's like the graph of an odd power function.
>>504250247Return of the king>>504250395That is, in fact, why he was good at melee. It would be cool if he actually went to tournaments and did okay. I could see him being a top 8 regular.
>>504250247his first stream back is going to be huge. too bad he's just going to scare all of his new viewers away by begging each and every one of them for money every 2 seconds whilst spamming ads
>>504258245I wonder if he'll tone that shit down for his return (probably not because lolm2k). I was willing to put up with it because I imagine his situation in South Africa or wherever the fuck he was was kind of like rock bottom for him and he was trying to min max any means of revenue possible.
>tfw m2k didnt come back from ghana with corn rows and a beautiful plantation wife
mew2king isn't going to become the best player because he plans on maining a mid tier (kragg).
>>504259521its ok because he'll switch to a high tier (loxodont)
how long has he been in south africa or whatever? 3+ months?
>>504266804look at this mutated irradiated freak
pity bump
>>504272867i pity bumped ya motha last night
Bout to go fucking crazy on some people grinding secondaries for bucks.
I'm in the range of player where I can beat anyone who doesn't know how to play around shield dropping, but the second I run into someone who does it's a coin flip at best. Don't know how you progress beyond this point other than having the smash bros gene.
>>504266804is he like super broke or something? I watch his stream for like 10 min and he's shilled his "help me" google doc 5 times.
>>504276598>is he like super broke or something?I think he's been living off the kindness of strangers for the past decade or so. He obviously makes some of his own money by being m2k, and it's enough that multiple people have apparently stolen from him, but he's always been living with some sort of "handler" for as long as he's been on Twitch. Like, I remember back when he lived with PB&J.
>character randomly air dodges again even though i did not input an air dodge>lose 50% i really wish i could figure out why this is happening and stop it. my character constantly air dodges at random whenever im in the air and it causes me to lose matches.
>>504277109I had this but it was my controller inputting a down input for no reason. Switched to using a Switch Pro and it went away.I swear online though sometimes tap jump is on even when it's off.
>>504277754i don't want to use a different controller, i just want the game to work as intended. why does no one care about this issue?
>>504277907I don't have that issue but I have also has the issue of my controller inputting "down" for no reason. It would actually be that "up" sporadically becomes "down". I believe this is the same issue that prevented me from wanting to play Rivals 1 back when it came out. It doesn't really happen often, but I wish it NEVER happened.
This game is so fucking aids man. That stupid fucking parry buff in the leaks better be real. People can just spam retarded projectiles and the risk vs reward for you having to tap that 30 frame start up parry is laughable. Log the fuck off zetterfaggots.
>>504278065I had this issues before and fixed it by going to controller settings in Steam and turning off inverted control stick
>>504278187Screenshot this option or explain how to get to it. I have never seen or enabled such an option, nor does it make any sense to my why this would only activate occasionally.
god, i get so much secondhand embarrassment when i'm playing a zetter mirror and the other guy is trying to do 20 shines per minuteit's not that good of a move my dude
>>504278618
>>504278618>>504279526don't take controller advice from an orcane player, their thumbsticks barely even work due to being chewed to pieces and drooled on
I have 12 less rating than hungrybox.
Love when I do stomp into bair at like 100 in the corner on the smallest stage and it wont kill. Lox is literally Dan Hibiki tier.
what did he mean by this
>>504280516he just wanted to know you're a carried shitter even though you still won
>>504281206>second worst character in the game>fighting a top 3 character infamous for being able to do whatever he wants>i'm carried
>>504281450Zetter's better than Fors and Lox. He actually gets shit off of throw and has a million different kill confirm flowcharts.
>>504280516what?he gave up because he didn't think he'd win when he's down 1.5 stocks
>>504279526It's already off. Why would anyone even turn that on?
>>504283817Idk
>>504281891>lox downplayers
What animal should they add as a Rivals character next?
>>504280516he already won, so why keep playing?
>>504285075more cats
>>504281972kragg stocks are worth 2 other character stocks. also if i can 3 stock him who's to say he can't pull a reversal? bitch move imo>>504285287won what? the "press fstrong and pray" award? every kragg has that
>>504285934he outplayed you, you're seething 10 minutes later, I think we all know you're not exactly the winner in this scenario
>finally find a FFA lobby>play one game>one person leaves>now have to search againLiterally what the fuck is this system.
>>504286043I didn't know getting 2 stocked in 2 minutes as kragg is outplaying someone
>>504287397you're the one that's still mad
>Yet another Kragg skinKragg's got that "main character" aura about him.
>>504288613he's quite clearly the upset one. he barely won game 1 and taunted over it, got destroyed game 2, and this was the end of game 3. i could feel the seethe in his every move
>>504284553Lox's bair is a joke move. Maybe when it actually starts killing people I'll consider him a serious character. I literally don't care what they have to do to change it. Add 5 more frames of start up but make it the strongest bair in the game. He's a fucking heavy, they are supposed to hit hard. But in reality it's basically got the same knockback growth as a ranno fair.
>>504294068lox bair kills sub 100, stop blaming the character for you being shite. watch the loxes consistently getting top 8 if you need spoon-feeding on how to play.
>>504294481No it doesn't. Maybe if you're offstage yeah, but it's not even killing the light characters under 100.
>>504294481Sis, you don't know how to DI...
>>504294481Lox bair won't even kill at 150 on big stages with proper DI. I straight up forget I'm supposed to be playing some giant powerhouse character every time I'm on lox. I'm playing Melee Bowser basically. Nah melee bower's up air actually killed people sometimes.
>>504294757>>504294904>>504295261good lord this entire general is lox downplayers hopefully you learn your character is fine and learn to play when you get 0 buffs on the 3rd
>citing in game kill percentages is downplaying
>>504296703citing incorrect ones is yeah
