>>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

>>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.

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

>>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

>>537807425Barebones lol
Can you counterhit confirm 5Ks into wild assault or are you just buffering and hoping
I hope I-no gets removed from the next game, most cancer fighting game design after HC, Chipp and Millia>character presses dash to do non-stop 50/50s>you have to fuzzy perfectly all the timeI get she's kinda shit in high level local tournaments, but online it's impossible to deal with her bullshit, same with those other 3Always hated fighting her in the other games too
>>537807887soivers can't hit confirmif they do anything without the COUNTER slowdown, they would have done the same thing on block
>>537808938>character presses dash to do non-stop 50/50sThat's like half of Strive's cast yet you only cry about I-No. Maybe you're just gay?
>>537809216>That's like half of Strive's castYou know that isn't true, you sure you're not just retarded?

>>537811675In what fucking fantasy dreamland does Leffen live in for him to consider Asuka better than Anji, Millia, Unika, Slayer and Baiken
>>537813125I only play lobbies

Thoughts?
>>537812903
>>537816159>>537816162please stop posting this garbage in my nice /ggg/ thread ty
>>537816159i think venom should be in F tier because his balls are impossible to confirm on hit since you are forced to block as you approach because the opponent can just hit you through your ball and make it disappear
>>537816446also everyone knows this so they don't even bother blocking the balls because they know he's not going to press a button and turn it into a combo out of fear of getting counterhit through his ball
>mostly playing level 50-100ish people in plat 2>oh shit level 1000 gio>he's the worst player I've fought all day, literally free to my day 2 ABAI'm crying dude holy shit
>>537818128It's a 10-0 mu
>>537818128level 50-100 people are probably fighting game players from other games who are dabbling in soive because it finally got matchmakinglevel 1000 is a true soiver (scrub)
>>537816159Giobros we're z tier
>>537818128the real answer is that dude just came back to soive after a big break and those lvl 50-100 actually grinded 30+ hours already since the rank system barely gives you levels
>>537818735why wouldn't the veteran soiver have come back at the same time as those 50-100s?
>>537811675This faggot puts Asuka in S just because he's the one character with an oppresive blockstring that he can't play
>>537818904because not everyone can play the game at the same time?? lil sorry ass stupid ass neet
>>537818735>>537819049we found the level 1000 gio who got bodied
>>537819049cope, the only people who stick around for long in a game like soive are the ones who are carried by it, it's the most scrub friendly game on the market and respectable FG players recognize that and dip
>>537819381i have lvl 2.5k on a character and dropped it for 2 years
my nigga sonicsol is a respectable fg player
does getting a higher rank increase the rate your character levels up, like how it used to be with celestial?
I'm disappointed that your rank doesn't give you a cooler Wanted Poster as you go up the ranks.Seems like a missed opportunity to make it look like your bounty was increasing as you became a more dangerous player.
>>537816446>ball hit, press button, get combo>ball blocked, press button, get blockstringwhat exactly do you need to confirm?
>>537820658Bed Driver
>>537821074the problem is if i press a button i will get counterhit and lose 60% of my life and they will get positive bonusand if i block i don't get to do any pressure because their button puts me in blockstun as long or longer than my ball puts them in hitstun, so they can continue to gorilla their way in while i fight for my life
>>537821975you're gonna have to post a repaly, because i can't relate to anything you're describing my guyif you're covering your approach with a ball, i don't see how they can tank a ball and still hit you, without armor of course
I love how weird the lyrics are in the character songs. >The town inside meWhat the fuck does that mean? Did Bridget eat a town?
>>537823141Yes, the whole town.
>>537822752they don't tank the ball because the ball disappears when i get hitballs aren't always going in a straight line toward the opponent, sometimes i bounce them off the ground or off each other, and this issue isn't an issue in every single situation, but it is an issue often enough that venom feels terrible to playputting in all this effort in neutral to set up balls just for a gorilla opponent to ignore them and counterhit you as your ball approaches feels really bad, because if i just hold block on my approach instead of committing to offense they will get hit by that ball, but like i already said, because i am blocking i am getting put in blockstun and don't get any sort of reward for using my character's gimmick of setting balls and using them to approach
>>537823141It's a metaphor for the fear of judgment by the town he grew up in. Bridget's entire life has been about proving himself to them. First as a girl, then as a boy, now for some reason as a girl again.
>>537823141I unironically ironically believe it to be a gay sex reference

Let's say, hypothetically speaking, I had $7+tax to my name, and I wanted to spend it on a singlular GGST DLC character. Who should that character be?
>>537823242that's not what you said earlier>their button puts me in blockstun as long or longer than my ball puts them in hitstun, explicitly describes them getting hit, but now you're complaining that the balls disappearing? Seems like your problem is more to do with zoning
>>537824486test
>>537813125i got to 1550 and barely lost to a 1560 millia. so i kept playing to get my points back, after all i had a lot of time, so no excuse to not be able tothen i freefell to 1350 and uninstalledi'm retarded i guess
>>537824684Still dead
>>537824693>to get my points backthat's not how it works, anonyou go to where your skill belongs
>>537824486Don't buy Dizzy because despite being insanely hot and getting a couple of nice buffs she is still bad.If you just want to win I guess you'd get the most value from HC.
>>537825084yep i uninstalled cause i'm trash
>>537813125>be in flowchart mode>hit vanquisher>keep playing>realize people know the matchup (even slightly) in this elo>get dunked until 1450
>>537824534i'm saying the same thing in both poststhe situation: i set balls, i hit balls, i approach behind balls i hit, maybe hit it again to keep it going, maybe set more balls and hit those, my balls are flying toward my opponent, i am also closing in on my opponent trying to use my balls as cover, my opponent doesn't respect my balls because they know venom is trash and they are right, so they swing on me with 6P or 2S or whatever the best move is depending on the situationnow here is the issue: if i expect the ball to hit them or them to block and press a button on my approach with the timing required to do a real blockstring or turn a ball hit into a combo, i will get counterhit, my ball disappears, and they get a big combothis means i have to dash block or air block on my approach so the ball hits them, but their button still got through the ball and put me in blockstun, and the hitstun is nothing on ball hit so my reward is my ball did like 30 damage to them and we're back to neutral except i'm up close with no more balls set and no ability to set more because i'm too close
>>537824486use creamapi, and save your $7 for when blazblue when its on sale
all i want is for balls to be higher level attacks so they give more blockstun and more hitstun on hit, that way if my opponent is disrespectful enough to press a button while they watch a ball flying at them, i can block and still maintain pressure or convert into a combo instead of ending up in a disadvantageous position (often times my ball hitting them will make them recover faster than if they just pressed the button and made me block)
romantic
Venombro, have you tried playing HC? You'll no longer have to worry about all that pesky "interacting with your opponent" nonsense.
>>537826847Why does it say romantic only sometimes?
>>537827220i want to interact with my opponent, i just don't want to be weak as shitthere's so many ignorant characters in this game that get to exert their will on the opponent through oppressive offense and neutral skipsvenom doesn't have oppressive offense or neutral skips, he has unique neutral strength via space control, that strength should be more rewarding for him

Why do people have weird combinations of letters before their names? Are there multiple occult factions of arcane practicing strive players trying to uncover the true meaning of esoteric concepts such as "neutral" and "RPS"? Do they study Kabbalah? Do they adhere to hermetic philosophy?
If there's one thing I hate about this game, it is the fact that everybody is just swinging at round start. I've been traumatized by Superman in injustice to ever see the appeal of that
sol's are the corniest players of all time. no one thinks your dustloops are cool
>>537837605I think Xrd onwards, Justice is fully organic and just has armor (maybe restraints?) on. Might've actually been organic with robotic parts integrated into her in the GG1 days, I say this because her shoulder missiles in artwork seem like a mix of both.
>>537840467Children who have grown up in an age where every player is sponsored by an org think that that's normal but aren't good enough to be sponsored, so they make their own little clubs and pretend like they're in orgs, even though they don't do anything that orgs would do.

There is absolutely nothing interesting about fighting Slayer, brings nothing new to the table. We already had a vampire, disappearing dashes and a lot of damage. Now we have another vampire that has disappearing dashes and a lot of damage, but instead he punches people instead of slicing them up.His gameplan is simple and boring, plus frame and try to mix you up with a whack rekka out of dandy. If he lands a command grab, you get hit harder lol. It's like the devs have no idea how to make an interesting Strive character without them sucking(Testament, Johnny, Bedman, Now Zato), or them being ridiculously overpowered (Asuka, Chaos). I swear this game wasn't made for people to love the game, but just made to appeal to the dopamine hits when you hit someone and 30% of their health chunks out. Such a far way away from Xrd, which I didn't play too much, but is 20x more interesting and charming than whatever product this is.I was hoping that over time the characters got more enticing, that they wanted to shape the game from what it was (Absolutely terrible), to a pretty good game. But it seems they're moving away from that and just trying to make what sells. I don't fault them for this, but at the same time I'm not the accountant for ArcSys, I want to play a quality product. I wish all the workers the best for their mental health, families, and pockets, but I want to play a good game.Three of the four DLC in season 3 are extremely underwhelming, ABA had some premise, but just turned out to be a 50/50 nuclear bomb in Jealous rage, and pretty useless when not. Slayer, just boring all around(Mostly because we already have a rekka monster, and a vampire). Elphelt is a rekka monster, also pretty boring. And Johnny is pretty cool.The competitive scene is stale, Wild assault is a joke, the same boring characters have been strong since release, most characters get the lamest buffs, only the regular cast is getting new moves. The new moves do nothing for the game.

Nago is a dei charater
Are there any way to preemptively block certain ethnicity and characters? Tired of indians and axl players and indian axl players.
>opponents tauntshow do you respond without sounding mad
>>537861504I want to start tbaging on hard knockdowns to troll, but I always forget to do that
>>537861504Increase the ping of the match to 300-1000 ping.
>climb to around 1450 DR today>damn, i'm getting better :)>proceed to lose it all in one sittingepic
>>537861504angry private dm full of slurs
>>537861504i can't, i don't have taunts binded
nago needs a new move
>download this one potemkin guy on ranked that was raping me before so hard i'm just bullying him nowouch...
>>537851164Can you make it so you can kill the copy with normal attacks and it makes Asuka take damage like Chipp's clone?
>mfw when I match with that guy in ranked that I was raping so hard with potemkin until he downloaded and started bullying me
>>537863516i can try. but it's technically the opponent's spawn object so any linked damage will go to them. i can't even figure out how they're supposed to hit it yet because you don't normally hit your own projectiles, so there's little to reference from. a cool thing I just figured is any objects that I switch ownership to, the next object that object spawns will automatically switch ownership too. like a mother and child situation. so even though I never switch ownership for ondo, because the avatar spawned the object, asuka owns it too. I'm sorry, no one cares about this technically shit...
this game is kookily
thinking about the amount of money LK fumbled by not putting eskay on chaos or slayer
LK has no serious interest in eskay because she's flat
Is the game still alive enough at low ranks to pick up now? Wanna get into fighting games and I only got 200 hours into tekken 8 on release before it filtered me. Common answer says I should start with SF6 instead, but I like the designs of GG more.
>>537865624I imagine you'd be fine, but I don't know how populated the low ranks are.
>>537865624You claim to want to play guilty gear and claim to have played tekken 8 for 200 hours, and yet you are worried about player count. How curious.

>>537864671>like a mother and child situationI believe that's called "inheritance">I'm sorry, no one cares about this technically shit...I enjoy seeing it in the thread, I'm impressed by what you're able to do to the game, and random bits of info you figured out along the way are probably the most interesting part for me.>>537865624>Is the game still alive enough at low ranks to pick up now? Yes
>>537865624we don't want straightoids playing our game
Burst really is a retarded demonic mechanic. Party shit.
erm, do I always RC for pilebunker loops to work?
>>537808938The Chipp sneak
>>537865624Gold rank is the average player strength. Most people are not good
>>537866974you wanna get looped by ino and millia a trillion times with zero recourse?
I'm gonna play +R right now hopefully there's lots of people online
>>537879041hheheh
>>537880207whats so funny laughing man
ninth page........
hey bros i wanted to get back to strive because of ranked and because jam is coming out at some point. what character should i play for the easiest wins? is it still may?
>>537887298Slayer, high damage and half the players don't know how to play against himHC is also easy wins but you actually have to learn him a bit
>>537887298slayer is retard proof. just lab the bunker loopsmay still does huge damage but the playerbase has collectively installed the 6P firmware and the framedata on dolphin is less oppressivepotemkin is top tier now and all he takes is 20 minutes labbing kara inputs and he becomes the most brainless coin flip character in the game
>>537888089you dont even really need the kara inputs
>daru is 40jesus
>>537889058a stark reminder that it's not age catching up to you, (you) just suck
>>537889242yeah, he has a job while streaming everyday and competingsaw some pics of him in the gym so he's not even neglecting his health
how do youstop gunflame pressure
>>537890082ge?
>>537851880this guy seems like a faggot but he's atleast right that slayer is boring to fight and is for low iq morons who think they're good at fighting games
>>537890340what's ge
>>537890082unless it's hitting meaty just jump over it, if Sol's using it at close range then hit him afterwards as it's unsafe up close. gunflame sucks
>>537891932aight thanks
Haven't played in multiple patches.How fucking broken is HC now if Leffen has him in the top 2?
>>537896980he's less broken than he used to beif anything leffen has actually tiered him correctly
>>537891487that's what I'm asking
>>537897127oh game edition. it's +R. I always want to IAD punish but then bandit bringer gets me
>>537896980
>>537896980>>537897062>"I think the top 3 below Pot are actually interchangeable, but people will be mad at me if I don't put Chaos here"
>>537896980>>537897647>Heartbreaking: Worst people you know make great points
>>537898426a player at the top tournament level should not be confused on how to interface with delay based offense and how plus frames out the ass makes that strong
>>537898845i'm sure he knows that since he plays nago and you need to know how to make your opponent respect you and go for throws etcmaybe gio isnt as strong as you think?
>>537898845Isn't he a Nago player? Makes sense that neutral and not facerolling your offense confuses him
>>537898426he's right, she needs a command grabi have literally been saying this since season 1
>>537899081your whole offense with nago is delaying your buttons to catch them jumping/dashing
>>537899503I literally saw him uninstall strive on stream. What a beaten down dog of a human.
>>537899060plus frames are strong but specials that cancel into specials are stronger
>>537899503Why did he reinstall and is he still gay
>>537899503he banned me but I stand by what I said
>>537900408what did you say
>>537900480ngl sonic might be time to pivot into being an onlyfans model cause fighting games clearly not for you
>>537899503Is he the guy with the blue furry costume? If so he used to look so bright and happy but recently he looks like a fat nigcel.
>>537901329post one (1) example of him looking happy
>>537901329no thats sonicfox
I think it'd be cool if someone did +R videos
>>537899503What's wrong with still playing games at 30...
>>537901329that's sonicfoxsonic_sol is the guy who has a discord where he and a bunch of friends (male) listen to each other moan into the mic while gooning for hours to futa porn (NOT GAY)he's also the guy who had a meltdown on stream because one of his chatters pressed the taunt button during a match
>>537901596dead game
I still can't believe kshue is an evo winnerIt's worse than Leffen being one
>>537887968>>537888089noooooo!!!!!!!! slayer is hard and takes skill!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>537811675>He is STILL seething about AnjiHoly shit...
I know one mixup and one combo and I will never get out of gold.
>>537903935I watched the vod and he called the fish nerf a "small nerf" like fish being overpowered wasn't the entire reason everyone considered him high tier
>>537904069Anon Leff thought Anji during release and the first season after that were also top 6 material
>>537904069fish was half of it80% screen stundipper that is a combo starter was the other half
>>537904409The one move that got nerfed to like 36 frames startup before the fish even got nerfed?
>>537899503this nigga turning into the penguin
>>537904576>downplaysevery single anji match had the anji sending that shit the instant he had 50 meter and occasionally withoutwhat was that tournament with like 5 anjis? might've been frosty. it was depraved
I know anjis are retarded but not understanding why a stun dipper that long that gives combos on hit out a guard point stance might be next level dipshittery
>>537905559>out a guard pointDo people still don't know how spin works after years of gameplay or it being fully public data available for everyone
>>537905559>that long that gives combos on hitOnly at certain ranges meterless >out a guard point stanceYou mean the stance that only has guard point for 10 frames out of its 30+ frame attack of kara fuujin into nagiha? Unless you're talking about fully charged fuujin into nagiha in which case it's entirely on you if you're getting hit by that in neutral because that's like 50 frames of startup.
>>537905559It's literally 46 frames with spin added to it with the guardpoint only being able to cover 15 frames off it >>537905003Nagiha also got nerfed hard
>>537905913>umm akchually it's not a guard pointcall it whatever you want, it's still a neutral rps
>>537867264...
>>537905913if you know how spin works and don't think it's broken you might be retarded anon
>>537906397Please enlighten us on how its broken then.
>>537906367>>537906397It is quite literally 46 frames to do this "neutral skip stun dipper" versionThat is 2 frames faster than doing a full charged 5D and a normal 5D startup combined
>>537906519this nigga thinks being invincible isn't broken lmaoooo
>>537906519>>537906540>People are still biting the same bait we've had since releaseC'mon guys be better.
>>537906540what do the frames have to do with anything? is this bait?
fast spin, delayed spin, spin > fujin, spin > nagiha , dash block>"bro just hit me, my moves are so slow"
what does the guard point part of nagiha in neutral even have to do with this? It's literally a non factor consideringt if you are using it in neutral your opponent is gonna be way too far away to even hit into the guard point part of that attack.
>>537907070Yes anon that's the point, that nigga was unironically whining about it for no reason
anji downplayer general
>>537907273sorry, that'd my faultI always one sidedly crush anjisit seems to have broken their confidence
If the other guy fails the wall break why would you ever escape upwards rather than to midscreen?
>>537899503unironically me but:i'm worse than him at fightansi'm a toxic narc and i'm the one responsible for alienating friends and familyi'm 35but at least i'm handsome, tall and not black
>>537902569Strive?
>>537908941panic
>>537908941you need to hold forward for that and most people let go of the controller
>>537908941if your opponent reads the escape they can make you block so you need to have 2 options
>>537908941the other guy didnt fail to break the wall, he let me tech off the wall on purpose so he could catch me mashing and counterhit me back into the wall
>>537912092stop posting this the milliaTO is going to leave the general if he sees one more upplay
this might sound hyper autistic but i'm trying to completely change my muscle memory and the way i use the keyboard. I mash like crazy and not only it's loud af and i broke two keys but i noticed that when i play my fingers are lifted instead of resting on the keys, especially the thumbs where i have jump and dash macro. This increases the travel speed and makes me slow. So i'm forcing myself to always have the fingers laying down but it's hard af and i'm dropping every fucking combo but i think it's worth it.Does anyone else have this tendency?
>Anji's options are so bad the best Anji in the world had to constantly do fucking RWA in neutral to get a reliable hitbox out>Hardstuck plat 1 losers itt arguing about a 30 to 45f startup low that doesn't actually guarante high reward on hit and is always punishable is actually brokenNever change /ggg/, I never knew Anji actually had a stronger version of beyblade
just got my heart completely shattered by a woman. how do i cope
>>537912474isnt his low safe with spacing
>>537912092Holy fuck when are they nerfing Millia
>hmm ranked in ggsy maybe ill play>watch vods to see what changed >baiken does 5p>hits>does follow up 6k>gets thrownNope thats fucking retarded holy shit they put a gun in baikens mouth instead of on her arm
>>537912774It got nerfed to have less pushblock, there's only a handful of characters that still have troubleAlso its a soft knockdown and he can't follow up on tip range so there really isn't a point of bothering with spacing or throwing it out anymore
>>537912092The only reason there aren't more HC vanquishers is because everyone one and dones them so the ranked climb is twice as long for them
>>537912092where is the chart that's adjusted relative to character popularity?
>>537912474Nagiha's nerf wasn't even this patch, that's what's weird. You would think people would notice it doesn't do the things it used to anymore.
anji players are so carried by their braindead gorilla character
>>537899503This nigga needs help for real
>>537912092>People are not noticing how busted Axl is hereMost non Millia characters that are higher up are actually played a lot to compensate but that bong fuck is way, WAY overrepresented Holy shit
>>537915489he wins for free if you can't dashblock and no one below vanquisher can dashblock
do you gain more points when youre on a winstreak now?
thank you silksong
Strive needs more crossovers2b and this girl specifically, thanks
>>537915846You can find something to say for every single character anon
Why is it that when i roundstart goldburst, spam backdash and reversal and mash when minus it's scrubby and desperate but when pros do it it's calculated and hype
>>537916585when you do it, it's the normwhen pros do it it's a departure from the norm
>>537916585Because you lose
soivers are free use bussy for xrdchads
>>537916246only good thing about this manga is the art
>>537916246There's already too many fighters with 2B in it
>>537917338no such thing as too many
>>537917459Wrong, she should've been in 1 at most.I liked Automata but I'm tired of her being in every other game out there.
>>537917338i personally think there aren't enough>>5379177589S is a way better character but we don't like her for her personality
>>537912092>Leo/Gio dead centerThe perfectly balanced characters...
>>537917920Yes, I know coomers want her for her fat ass.Point is, you can just go play Granblue or Soulcalibur, pretty sure if she was on Strive she would be a literal copy paste from Granblue anyway.
Why do people say Johnny was nerfed He is the exact same as before
>>537912092Alright, let's hear the excuses for why Ky is so high.
do asuka players think they're better than HC?
>>537918515They are
>>537918321No need for excuses. He's one of the most played characters in the game and he's very good this patch. Proportionally it checks out unlike with Millia.
GOLDLEWISGOLDLEWISASUKAASUKAKILL YOURSLEVES
>>537918515>>537918692Fuck off you swedish fag
>>537918692What did their sleeves do to you?
>>537918692Unlike Goldlewis players we actually have to use our brains to get results, don't lump us together
>>537918821youre so fucking ill if you think asuka is anywhere but top 3 especially now that every mouth breather can watch a guide and learn him in an hour
>>537917338Only trash ones thoughbeit and also what else besides Granboobs? Soul Calibur doesn't count
>>537918253>why want her in a good game? just go play a trash game with 1 button specials instead or some 3d sloppa!No. It's a damn shame Cygames got her before Daisuke did and instead we get a loser Cybercuck character instead.
>>537919234>>537919406>Implying Strive is a good game>Implying is any harder than Granblue>Implying Nier Automata is even relevant anymore>Other game doesn't matter because I say soCalm your dicks, just go play her in Granblue.
Remember when Gios 2D was considered a GOD buttonNow it's just okay probably even shit
>>537920114Strive is a good game bro this is the Guilty Gear general
>>537920231There are more Guilty Gear games than just Strive.And Strive is just the least awful modern fighting game currently, and the only one with a somewhat alive population out of the GG games.
>>537920192It had more than double the range it does now anon
>>537920606Yeah and it's good
>>537920776open up your bussy lil soivah, im coming in
>>537920776Hmm nah, it only saw a resurgence because of ranked mode, otherwise it would still be in the gutter.
>>537920916>>537921018Cope troons
strive = tranny game
Lucy is low tierGio is low tierTestament is low tierI have no one to play
>>537921259>Soiver>Calling others troonskek, go look at any Soive tournament results, see how many troon flags you spot.
>>537920114>not relevant>still talked about all the time>still being added to games (soul cal, granblue, final fantasy, stellar blade, etc)Yeah nah
>>537899282her command grab should slam her pussy into my face like that videl move and then punch me in the head
>>537921527>pot nerfed>still top tierSPD literally just needs like a 30% damage nerf or something. Grapplers shouldn't just be able to delete your entire health bar for 0 effort based on a single good read or you fucking up once. Why do I need to lab insanely tight combos that require a wall break and a super for hours to get 70% of the damage of a single SPD? It's criminal that you can even combo off of it.
>>537921682Nier Automata is not relevant, haven't seen anyone talk about that game in the past 5 years.2B is only being added to other games because she's an easy coomer bait, half the crossovers if not more are for gachas, coomer games or coomer gachas.Like, it's a good game, but you know it's true.
>>537922262In FF it wasn't just 2b though. There are multiple Nier raids and 9S plays an even bigger role than she does.
>>537922634That's cool, but the main point still holds true.
i play a low tier character so me freezing the client to force a desync and avoid ragequit penalties every time i am about to lose is justified
>>537922951BASED GIO SISTER !!!!!
Man, I hope Strive 2.0 does some visual overhauls to some characters.May, Millia and Ram look like they ate way too many burgers, which is really weird considering how thin they used to be, May in particular looks like fat fat.I don't need them to go back to Xrd necessarily, but defining their face shapes a bit more would do wonders, kind of like how GBVS Rising did it.
>>537922951can you actually just avoid RQ penalties that way? that'd explain why there's so many quitters even in vanquisher
>>537924491We need fat female representation.
