>>537678114exact same thing the tower doesthey probably just reused the functionality
>>537677260Why did you let the grappler approach?
>>537678825well he did it from midscreen and when I punched him his neutral skip had armor
>>537679639shouldn't have let him get meter chud
just experienced the "whiff gunshot" phenomenon for the first time when he whiffed charge dust, I tried to punish and died.
>>537680602before my hard drive bricked I had 3 different webms of IBFDing HC, him whiffing, then getting shot during my start up trying to whiff punish himyou don't interact with HC unless you have a DP or meter
>>537680991I think Daisuke needs to ft10 a HC player and then talk about future patches with his employees
keep em guessin

I knew it was going to be dogshit since it was announced but the game just doesn't allow me to fight people my level.I've just went back raping scrubs in the park, a way more fun and rewarding experience than this fucking garbage.
>>537683373push through until you hit vanq then you can get raped until you're 1300 and get even matches
>>537682275https://replaytheater.app/?game=strive&c1=Slayerits either dashing and using slash, 5k, 2h or using k mappa at the right spacing so its safe on block
>>537683373This sounds like a you problem.
I think learning ABA is probably the worst experience of my life so far?just getting ran the fuck over by the dumbest Baiken players I have ever interacted with in my life and I feel immeasurably helplessI know it surely gets better, but jesus christ this is torture

>>537685863sis they nerfed his P buttons 2 seasons ago
With the release of Lucy why does like 80% of the whole roster wear a loose fitting jacket or tightly fitting coat of some sort
why is this game so fucking laggyis it really so many people in ranked that can't handle the framerate and I'm dealing with it? it happens so often that I'm wondering if it's meI got a 3060ti and I play on medium, what the hell
>>537687365anime niggers are max poverty
>>537687365Anime players are often poorfags with the shittiest specs known to man which you think would be the opposite considering how little play them but no.
I placed in silver 2 with Slayer I think he's too hard for me (I am gold 2 on my main)
>>537688154Unikasis...
>>537687365Is this only when you're playing against other people or just in general; what do you mean?
Someone last thread said there’s no special mid match dialogue which is factually untrue as this patch added a bunch of instances. It was listed in the patch notes, so this is more evidence than Xrdsisters don’t actually play these games
>>537688497Post some.
>>537687365Asynchronous rendering and computing would be a great next step alike rollback netcode was (also just swallow your pride and implement SF6 match restoration already Arc Sys)
>>537688383only against other people in ranked? I don't really play offline or anything, the game runs fine in training mode if that's what you're asking?
>>537688227I don't play fraud pass 4 champs

>>537685107it is absolutely a fucking nightmare to startkeep at it though it's worth it

>arab money bought EVOthe soive mafia is finished, say goodbye to umishart and cohorts everyone
>>537691792Slash can get us in with the Muslims Alhamdulillah
I've started to wonder how wise it is to ask for advise or matchup help here when the whole thread plays less than 1/4th of the cast and aside from sneed there's only like 2 half good players
I've been training Bedman but I don't feel ready to bring him to Ranked just yet...got all the basic combos / blockstrings and neutral buttons down but have very basic ideas of what the setups / combos with already prepared errors are.
>>537692947Depends what level you're at honestly. Unless you're pushing into vanquisher you could probably still learn something constructive from the not-even half good players.
>>537691792This is just gonna make trannies more brazen in other offlines.
I want to try strive, but i don't want people to call me a soiver
>>537690405>backdashed on wakeupyou deserved to get clipped, you ape
>>537693569...There are people here not in Vanquisher? Only with their secondaries, surely...
>>537693760have you ever played against an anji? they backdash on 100% of their wakeups it's crazy, only character i've seen do that
>>537694260pochomkinnagoryiuki
>>537694329nagos block on wakeup, potemkins megafist on wakeup
>>537694526> potemkins megafist on wakeupunc…

>>537694329SinUnikaSlayerLucy BridgetRamlethalPotNagoChippMilliaGoldlewisAnjiBaikenABAJohnnyThese bastards are the definition of wakeup backdash, today I fought a nago that was literally Fullscreen away from me and he still backdashed
>>537694931bedman? is an orthopedic bed posessed by the soul of a dead retard
>>537693760I backdashed because I thought he thought I was gonna parry super on wakeup so would run up grab. It just so happened that me being wrong also happened to be a correct answer.
Alright what's up guys? We're back with another one. Portal Man has a new partner in crime, Headbutt buddy
>>537683373>be bad at game>complain that you have to earn your wins nowlol
Man, I'm so bad against Nago, I have like a 12 - 28 win lose ratio against him.
>>537683373>I've just went back raping scrubs in the park, a way more fun and rewarding experience than this fucking garbage.what is rewarding about that? you sound like a scrub yourself
>>537696329Oh this is evil, actually fucking evil, please keep doing itI assume you're focused on Chaos now, but I gotta ask, on your yt channel you showed off one of Asuka's new specials where he copies one of the opponent's moves, do you plan to make new projectiles for characters like Baiken, HC, Slayer and Johnny for Asuka to copy?Also if isn't too much of a hassle, can you give completion percentages for every character's development?
>>537695884you're not making it better
>>537696329he needs this to escape bottom 3 status
>>537697870What, I caught him with it before. Perfectly reasonable for me to think he'd look out for it. Nothing wrong with a hard read.
>>537690405the funniest part of the clip is a venom main not just going charged H stinger
>>537693184>I got higher ranking than the char I was using previouslyhuh, funny.
>>537698349well you sound like a beginner and absolutely no one at that level (and even at much higher levels) knows how the fuck Bedman works
>>537698595No, not really, I'm certainly not Vanquisher but I'm at least Diamond.It's just that I decided to start learning Bedman like less than 2 days ago.
>>537696329i'm sorry, the jiyuna impression was cringe. >>537697245i dunno. i might change it and make asuka spawn an avatar of the opponent character and use a special move that way, get rid of it entirely, and think of something else.>Also if isn't too much of a hassle, can you give completion percentages for every character's development?I'm still adding system mechanics to everyone and some characters I'm going to restart on entirely, because I don't like how they turned out. so Idunno%. the only characters I'm done adding content for entirely is millia and sol.
>>537694260pixies have better backdashes
>>537696329>he managed to make something cool for HCwtf make bedman's atleast this cool
ky kiske
>>537700753hate that wigga
>>537699840I wouldn't actively expect to run into players who really get Bedman until vanquisher desu, and even then it might not be the majority until higher ratings
>>537685573>neutralvery matchup dependent>pressureit's great, most of the times it's broken since people don't bother RPSing the proper points in his offense
>>537702171Maybe, I feel like I've run into a few Bedman on my region making my way up with my other char.No point in downplaying myself, and not sure why you are trying to.
just got robbed
>>537663846Daisuke is a hack and his art is terrible.
>>537703693I'm trying to "downplay you" just saying the average ranked chimpanzee has never bothered really trying to understand Bedman's non-euclidean neutral and pressure, so it's not weird for you do better with him.Case in point, I know neither me nor most of the players I played against regularly both in Celestial and now Vanquisher would bother labbing him.
>>537704147*NOT trying to "downplay you"
bedman mains think they're so smart and uniquealways posting gay vocabalways posting their own patch notes to make the game goodalways modding the game to make it correcthow about you actually learn how to win some fucking rounds
>>537704147You're making it sound like the character is some huge mystery when it's not, lol.But yeah, sure, I get you.
>Wanted to play ranked today>In the hospital insteadInfections are nasty work bros
>>537705535Who do you play?
Potemkin should not be allowed to PRC.
>>537705454Yeah not trying to make him sound like a mystery he's the only (?) characters with a dedicated counter-tech bible, he's just weird, has a weird model and has few players so it's not a matchup you'll find many people familiar or too comfortable with unless they go out of their way to lab it, which the average online Gorilla won't.

>Asuka guard crushes me>pulls more spells>Asuka guard crushes me>pulls more spells>Asuka guard crushes me>pulls more spellsWhat the fuck, do I just have to wait until he gets bad spell RNG? Or is it interruptible at some point?
>>537709454YRC?It's kind of annoying but they usually aren't doing much of any mix-up while doing that, only gotta be ready for like 6H or teleport cross-up if they have that.You can also wait until they fuck up by running out of mana or spells, and if they're just spamming spells on you they're losing HP too.Usually they need a staff to guard break, most of their spells don't naturally do that.
I never realized how obnoxious unika and zato were until i switched off of my zoner main
>>537709397I'm good as long as they don't do agent venom just to be different. my dream character would be the spot as an item toss character tossing shit out of his holes, also need ultron in a real game that isn't infinite
>>537710032>zatolearn the matchup
genuine question why do people use any character besides slayer? if you can't 6P mappa you have literally no way of preventing him from getting in and when he does every hit is at least 40% health
>>537711749>40try 80-100%
>>537711749I don't knowI legitimately am at a loss with him as ABA, I can not seem to ever get going before he does
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=493vB8bUbIU>he's back on SinPogchamp
>>537711749Not my style.
>>537711749Slayer players all play like bots so it's very easy for me to just spin mappa and get big damage
>>537712328AAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIEEEEEEEE THIS ANJI TOON IS TOO STRONG I PRESS 236K AND HE DOESN'T DIE WTF ARCSYS SHOOT HIM AGAIN
>>537711749
Are step dashes actually worser than runs?
>>537712790It is generally a privilege to have a step dash when they're busted, and they often have been in this game. Both Johnny and Leo's have been targeted for being too strong. ABA's is intentionally bad as the outlier.
>>537709769I didn't have meter, but considering spells are disjointed I imagine even if I did it wouldn't be reliable. I guess he needs specific spells, meter, or giving up his turn to do any overheads so it's not that bad but it still FEELS fucked.It's hard to ever get a good grasp on this matchup since there's only like, one good Asuka who plays Tower/Ranked in the entirety of South America and they're not too active.
>>537711749*baits you're mappa hunch*
>>537712023I don't play either but don't you have a bunch of huge disjoints and decent air buttons to air backdash into? I imagine that would shut down Slayer approaches pretty well. And does his pseudo DP even work at all against Jealous ABA?
>>5377120232p into keygrab into tenderize his ass in front of sharonit is not rocket science you don't need to do calculus just fraud your way into jr and hit him until he dies
>>537712973His 2D which he usually uses to extend his pressure has a somewhat big extended hurtbox at the startup, is still hard to catch though since he can instant-cancel it into spells but it usually comes after a mana recovery, though yeah if he's at a range he's not really in position to do any mix-up, but it's also kind of safe.He can mix an overhead with 6H if he's not that far away, but that's really slow so you should be able to see it even through all the spells.As for the rest of the match-up, it really depends on who you play, but most chars can just punch through his stuff and brute force their way in.

i can barely survive in 1400 DR. a-am i bad?
>>537716546worsemediocre
how can i go for a grab for the first time in like 3 games and still have him jump out immediately i don't understand
>>537716695he read your pheromones
>>537716579FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKKK
>>537716695we fuzzy jump those
i genuinely don't know how i can improve at this game, i watched footage of the best players of my main and yet i'm still getting bodied when i try to take the lessons i learned from that into account, either i am somehow lacking in some unseen area, i'm the best player ever and only losing to bad guesses, or everyone else is built differentnone of that makes sense, how am i losing without understanding why
>>537716546Isn't the 1400s range pretty good? 1500s is where top 1000 starts IIRC
>>537718651Watch your own replays and see why you got hit and lost.
>>537719346i don't get why i get hit besides "i was unlucky and they had the read"
>>537719346yeah i can do that but the only thing i'll see is that i guessed wrong, i can't do anything about guessing wrong
female gears prefer human men over all else
>>537719712>>537719763Well, you "guessed" wrong for a reason if you keep losing, is not luck, you had to be doing something, either you chose the same option too many times, or were too slow, or whatever option you chose was fake.There's 0 chance you're playing perfectly and they just chose the perfect answer for you always, so just look at what you're doing and make note of why it didn't work, then figure out what other thing you could've done that would've worked instead.If you don't know why you guessed wrong then you don't know what you're doing and may have to think why are you doing the thing you're doing.
Please someone save me why are there so many fucking nagos on ranked, why does this character never die and why does he do a million damage with unpunisheable buttonsWhy the fuck does his clone not lose to anything but if you try to jump it he gets to c.S if you jump forward or 2H if you neutral or back jump, but if you don't jump he just gets to f.S pressure into pressure insteadWhy does his buttons just become unreactable, unpunisheable and cover fullscreen after reaching high blood, who made this character
>nigger who spams hand of doom or retreating specials every time he's minusokay I think this Slayer champion might be a bit problematic for FT2
>>537711749all you have to do is space yourself so mappa isn't plus, block it, and mash on him
>>537724250Because he's coolAnd because he's easyProbably the most succesful gg newcomer since sin.
>>537725569Got matched against him again, he won once, and quit as soon as he was about to lose the second oneSometimes I wonder how pretty bad players end with pretty high DR and then I run into stuff like this
>>537725569ft2 itself is problematic
>>537724250His options are really streamlined if he's far and his H buttons are punishableHe's a fucked up character mind you but if you feel like you don't get to play the game you're probably just being too impatient and doing stupid shit
>>537726464Hm, well I don't feel like I'm being impatient, because is not that I'm getting hit by his 2s / 5h / 2h, is just that I can't approach or punish it so it ends up pushing me to the wall eventually.So is not that I'm getting hit on neutral randomly, is that I don't get to have a neutral presence against him.
>>537712896Leo’s and ABA’s dashes were nerfed in the same patch.
is slayer honest...?
>getting way less matches >game keeps "checking connection" but never connects to anyoneI wonder if I got put on the "lots of unfinished matches" blacklist just from crashes and the other dude disconnecting, with how held by tape Strive's online is I wouldn't be surprised

i'm convinced that there is no difference between being 1300 DR rating and 1700 DR rating other than luck, i fought a 1300 johnny and he straight up played the character perfectly
>>537694931>lucy shouldn't be able to use her hack super on anyone except bedman, they aren't robotsThey're videogame characters and she's deep diving into videogame and hacking them which is 100% possible.

yeah i uninstalled again, not having fun with the game anymore now that i'm used to it again, everyone plays their character the exact same way as everyone else, the only difference is whether you win or not
>>537742092it's strive, anyone can play their character "perfectly" because the skill ceiling is 1 nanometer over the skill floor
>>537742092Crazy how (major) tournament contenders are so consistently lucky across multiple characters, meanwhile everyone who shits on them except sneed is kicking around below the starting DR.
>>537744768>across multiple characters*across multiple cheap top tier charactersYeah, I wonder why?..

>>537745194alt play is such a retarded term, it could only be invented by a soiver, because soive is the only game that forces you to play a certain way to win, every other fighting game allows skill to win you games
vanquisher being so tough might lowkey be good for getting better and catching up to the really good players.
Okay. So Sol's just not allowed to do pressure on Potemkin.
time to uninstall i guess, not worth playing if i can't block faggots (100% of strive players)
>refused to work on guest slopDamon and Based
>>537741319there's a lot of mix you can do with Zato but your pressure is still necessarily going to be mostly the same as every other's Zato, because if it doesn't you're just using Edy sub optimally and leaving yourself open

>>537744768there's like 100 people total who take this party masher seriously, of course they are going to consistently do well over the sane people who see the game for what it is and fuck around on it for funthat doesn't change the fact that strive is not a fighting game, it's a coin flip simulator
don't take the bait
>>537760072Wow, it really could.
>>537765794>plat 2holy SHIT kek i got plat 2 with lucy after not playing soive for 2 years and i used to main test, test is lucy but better
>>537766448Too late, they already did. I'm disappointed by the results too; holy cope.
>>537766448NTA but it's not bait that only a handful of people actually take Strive seriously. There's a reason why everyone dumped it for SF6 and why it never made EWC.
I want to kiss justice
.....kshuewhatdamoo
>>537769626I would rather the scene not have Saudi money than to go full Duty Fighter 6 mode where the natural endpoint is shit like salvatore and ronaldo in cotw
>>537753874eh, her thing is below the lip, it's not nearly as intrusive. I-No's thing is just bang center and huge, and if she didn't have that mole she would be the hottest woman in the franchise especially with those glasses and slutty poses
>>537753629>>537771365I want beauty mark hating faggots to leave this series and company is NOT for you.
are johnny players intentionally doing some kind of tech to catch my backdash after they IAD j.H (after super wallbreak)? or is that just how johnny is?
>>537772017holy shit I-no if she real
>>537772560Is quite literally who I-no is modeled after
>>537772017I already knew I-no was based on a real person but holy shit she's hot
>>537772167i take the non answer as /ggg/ doesn't know anything about the game
ABA is just Slayer except her mappa costs meter
>aba actually has to manage their resourceswhy do people fall for this bait
>>537773218Only thing we know about johnny is that he carries
Is Lucy's relatively lower damage a demo for 2.0? She's clearly at least demoing IK functionality.
this game is sooooo fun in ranked. just stomp or get stomped because it's ft2.
>>537775421no she's a fast lightweight character, she's not supposed to have high damage
>>537775421it's pixie damage
>>537775656is pixie a smashie term?
>>537775719its oldschool guiltie term
>>537775719no you moron it's an archetype
>>537775719No, it's a fighting game term.
>>537775541Tell that to Gorillia Rage
>>537775502>stomp or get stompedthe soive life... i miss the epic anime battles of all time you could have in xrd
>>537775719No retard have you never played any other fighting game before?
I hate it when I'm down a stock but have no burst
>>537776987your bad for bursting at 1 hp
The endlag on my normals are really bad
People who call characters "champions" throws me off

>>537781651man women are born stupid
>>537781460that's why they say it
>>537781460we've been calling toons "toons" for years

I am tired of mashing and getting ch do you guys even have gaps in your pressure
>>537783274exactly
>>537785884nope, you have to hold it
>>537785884I intentionally delay my buttons to catch mashers
>>537785884I am plus
>>537786509please don't
, I don't understand what a gear is
>>537785884Yes but if you're too early or too late I'm gonna punch, kick and shoot you and you're gonna die.

They really fucked up with making the ranked system still have the same problems as the towerAnyone who tried the game again quit it after they saw Connecting.....Searching......Connecting
>>537791439I've barely had that problem, the times it did happen just going back to main menu and choosing ranked again fixed it.
What makes Eddie low tier in +R?
there's no human interaction in online fighting games, towerkino tried to fix this soulless aspect of online fighting games, but you scrubs would rather stare at a blank screen that says "searching...".
>>537794123there was in xrd lobbies
>>537794347xrd lobbies are mini towers, next question
>>537794413no, they are player hosted lobbies, and that wasn't a question. people chat(ted) in xrd lobbies.
>>537794123You know there's a whole community dedicated to just sitting around SF6's battle hub and showing off their avatars. They treat it like a more limited Second Life. It's really strange but it seems people are genuinely drawn to that sort of stuff in FGs.
>>537794123The interaction happens in-match, retard, you can just alt-tab or lab out in training mode while the game is searching.
>>537794534player hosted mini towers, next question
>>537794637but no one chats in the tower, they are all in training mode
>>537794620dix gameplay so mid they'd rather sit in lobbies and do nothing
>>537794712well its your fault
>>537794123I don't actually mind when fighting games try to make you interact with other people a bit, but the tower was terrible at even that. I don't think I've ever used the chat function in a fighting game less than I did in the tower. At least in Xrd lobbies I'd emote on someone or something after a match.
>probably spent most of the time working on this one super's animations and moves>give it so many restrictions that no one uses itSeriously what the fuck is wrong with Arcsys at this point? I get that when it comes to Ky's DI since its just an install but this is one of the only cool things about Unika and they decided to make it as inconvenient to use as possible
>>537796324I just came back to the game for ranked after not playing for about a year or soshe has ky's fucking sword? what the fuck
>>537794123you're half right, but tower is not the way
>>537796574She also has Dizzy's fat-ass tailShe's Ky / Dizzy's daughter from a different timeline or something along those lines.
i see the circle :-Dayayayaaayayayaa
>>537796324What do you mean being obtuse as hell and doing shit for no reason is arcsys' claim to fame just like making bad patches and games with terrible netcode is namco's.>>537796574Future daughter of Ky and Dizzy and Sin's younger sister from another timeline where they bit the dust and some American snatched her up as an egg to raise her to hate and kill gears despite her being one herself.
>>537796324>make it as inconvenient to use as possibleIt's because it's OP; most OP super in the game because it gives you positive bonus anywhere on the screen without having to break the wall (and does decent damage on top of that). That said, I agree with you, it's just bad design (structurally).
>>537797926>>537797980>Future daughter of Ky and Dizzythat's kinda cool but also kinda lamebecause I don't like the way she plays I'm gonna decide it's kind of lame and gay
>>537797975Copy That[sonic spindash.ogg x2]
Pot really does just instantly win the moment he gets meter
>>537798094Considering you can only use it at like 30% health its not that absurd that it gives positive
>>537772017"beauty mark" and it's just something that brings down a woman's beauty, sad!
>>537799102>Considering you can only use it at like 30% healthThat's part of what makes it difficult to use. The point is that so many restrictions on how / when it can be used makes it annoying and basically non-existent.
>>537786848a nuke that you can have sex with, enjoying the soft feel of her large breasts while you do
>>537799635pft. if my main had this you guys would be saying it's the dumbest shut ever and a free comeback button
>>537799635That's not even the biggest restriction surprisingly, it only hits grounded opponents which means the only way to use it in a combo is with Wild Assault which just scales your combo like crazy and it doesn't work on wall splat either.
Does anyone actually enjoy fighting Slayer? I think it's one of the most annoying matchups on par with HC.
I don't know what is it about Strive characters, but unlike most other fighting games, I get the urge to play pretty much everyone except for like a small few.Is like, I'm having fun and doing good with the characters I'm playing already, but also want to play the other characters I haven't tried yet too, this has never happened to me with any other fighter, there are fighters I got thousands of hours on but never changed between more than 2 chars at most.
>>537800652I think it's because while the characters are very simple especially compared to previous iterations, they're also not very alike for the most part. Compare that to SF6 where the charcters are simplified but are also homogenized by the overbearing system mechanics of the drive system. Strive doesn't really have that problem so the characters are easy to pick up for the most part but are also unique enough from eachother to be fun to mess around with.
>>537800652for me it's the opposite, i just want to play bedman. i would play asuka too but he's too difficult and not good enough in a game with the most retard gorilla characters
>>537801006Yeah, I think you may be onto something, it is easy to switch between them as long as you get how to play the game, but they don't play all the same way despite that.Is quite fun, I enjoy that part of Strive a lot.
>>537801006I'm glad they toned down wild assault a lot because the inclusion of that was really trending towards the sf6 philosophy of design.
>>537801629There's a reason people called WA "strive rush"
>>537801629I actually dropped Strive when they added WA and now I'm finally back because it's sorta kinda playable again.
>>537800652same desualthough i can't help but wonder if i'm just a scrub who enjoys the early stages of learning, then bails and switches when i actually start fighting people who know how to play
>>537801006This. I especially hate and feel an immense rage from Tekken 8 as a longtime tekken guy because heat completely fucks and homogenizes shit in a way that makes it infuriating, mood ruining and headache inducing win or lose with nothing to even feel good from while I can get absolutely destroyed by the anime shit here and feel actual interest and joy. Thank fuck WA is nowhere near as bad as that.
This is NOT gawdlike..
how can you say strive characters play different when everyone is just worse ram
>>537802365Oh, well, I like fighting people who know how to play, that's how I really test if I learned anything.I like switching because the chars look fun, not because I want easy early wins.
>>537804475why does this bitch get to run her insane pressure from 1 (one) blocked f.s. the definition of carried
>>537804691someone at arcsys is a huge chiefag
>>537804761I love her
>>537801006>are also unique enough from eachother to be fun to mess around withSome characters are either barbecues or Arcsys legit has no idea what to do with them.
>>537807425Barebones lol
Can you counterhit confirm 5Ks into wild assault or are you just buffering and hoping
