I'd honestly say Faust since he's the only one who's an actual doctor, despite the whole kancho thing.

Did you ever wonder why he lost his medical license and became what he is nowadays? I wouldn't trust my openings to him even if he means well

Yeah on second thought if it's Strive Faust probably not, I was thinking of Xrd Faust.

Anon, Faust isn't a licensed doctor in Xrd either

>>563010129
He's not licensed but he's still the only guy on the roster with medical training, he helps May with her Japanese cancer or whatever. The question is who you'd pick to give you a prostate exam, I want someone who'd know what they're doing. If the question was just "who do you want to put their fingers up your ass" my answer is I-no.

lobby closed. ggs guys thanks for always stopping by. will probably not be playing anymore
patch just looks completely unengaging and uninteresting to me on top of their direction with faust. they have repeatedly shown they do not want him to be anything more than a bot that tosses items. now he gets his cancer auto win neutral item more and... food is buffed. enjoy him constantly getting trumpet and meter from food. just the most toxic, boring, worst design possible. no buffs to any of his normals. in fact they got nerfed, crawl got nerfed, he gets gutted by system changes. item combos are now doing way less damage because of proration nerfs. command grab change giga hurts his already poor strike throw. tons of combo routes are being lost and tons of setplay is becoming far worse. it's not even just the fact that he was nerfed but the direction they want for faust is clear. they want him to be a dogshit, dysfunctional character that just throws items. I do not really care to wait around and see if they fix his issues that ruin him when they're just never getting changed. it's been 5 years and they refuse to give him basic changes like being able to catch backdashes. the only reason he won't be bottom 5 is because they somehow shot others harder than him. the entire direction of the patch to me seems like slop made to appease bad players who hate anime fighting games.
anyways again ggs just wanted to rant a little

Do you think when the patch drops they'll change the Steam library banner to that art of DLSS 5 Sol? I switched mine to custom art since I was sick of Dizzy's freaky-ass eyes

>>563011668

>>563007438
But testament is one of the designated bottom 5 of the new patch and Bridget will literally never be beyond middest of mid tier at best.

mine has been ky's lips for like 3 years, but the new sol art might make me change it.
>>
>>563011862
Okay but Potemkin is still high tier and Nago is top tier
>>
>>563011489
everyone has a level of simplification they're fine with in a fighting game. personally I always liked the game but I just love faust in every game. if he's going to be this lame and lopsided at least give us new items but we don't even get that. I really just wanted them to remove wild assault and nerf positive bonus. I really just cannot see how fighting most of the cast was that bad last patch unless you're just ass at the game
>>
>>563012251
But that's not because they're dark skinned that's because they're both big bodies with command grabs and strive's director is a Potemkin main with Nagoriyuki as his favorite new character because he likes big bodies, he even made goldlewis top tier. No bedman doesn't count because he isn't human and doesn't look as cool as either so he will never be top tier.
>>
>>563012861
Pot is also effectively the “spiritual Bridget”.

So for 4 years, everyone says Soive is the worst game ever and that every character is neutered and there's no gameplay and its super braindead and theres no sauce
They make a patch where they nerf the shit out of everyone and reduce everyone's options
and people who actively quit the game and started saying the above are now saying it's the greatest update of all time?
???
>>
Excited to see how Zato feels this patch
I'm hoping float doesn't feel completely useless and that the invite hell buffs feel good.
Sword super was kind of bullshit so I understand it getting nerfed
I just hope the games overall core combo structure isn't completely out the window, id rather them have just nerfed the overall damage of the game than make it so that things are difficult to connect and don't lead to much.
We'll just have to see
4 more hours yea? I'm debating just staying up
>>563002267
Are you still going on about mission mode? There are many great tutorials out there on YouTube if you need to be told what to do but literally just pick what character you like go into training mode and learn what buttons do what. Then go fight people online and lose and learn until you are able to jizz out a win. You will lose a lot. This is a journey not a destination, you must enjoy the small victories in games where you lose. Appreciate yourself and give yourself a pat on the back when you confirm small combos or react to someone jumping in with a 6p. Learn what a fucking 6p is, it's not rocket science. Take it one step at a time, apply yourself. You do not need no damn mission mode

We won't know until the patch drops. Personally I stopped because the foundation for Strive is shit and going back to basics to what was basically shit to begin with doesn't fix anything. It just reminds you that you're playing shit.
>>
>>563019816
I was thinking the exact same shit but obviously you realize quickly that the only people cheering on this patch are subhuman pro players who just want the game to be as unfun possible because their income depends on it. Everyone else is just following the train without any thoughts "if leffen said the patch is good then it has to be good" most of them don't even play the game even that fag Max probably released a video sucking off the patch and shitting on Tekken for not doing the same or something.
If you play either ABA, Asuka, HC or Testament you have 0 reason to go back to the game if you weren't and if you were still playing you have no reason to not uninstall the second the patch drops. They made all 4 of them basically unplayable with amount of effort required to win far superior to any fun you could extract from them.
I already know the bigges tranny nigger from here and /fgg/ crossposters will post steamcharts numbers in attempt to dunk on whatever shit they want to dunk on but I strongly believe the player high will not even surpass s4 release.
If we reach 15k we are at 2k the next day when people realized their characters can't do anything.

This is what people said about Nier when they shot her ass. It's cope. He's done. He had a good run at least, 3 years compared to Nier's measly 6 months.
>>
>>563024356
they made reload refill all of his bullets at once, he's back to only caring about concentration, which he can do safely behind the 2nd shot
>>563024470
Nier was actually crippled for a long time, they gave HC compensation buffs and ways to maintain absurd plus frames, the only real nerf he got was that he can't instantly beng off of any random stray hit, he needs to have the gun out prematurely

I just blocked every happy Chaos I met in ranked, so nothing changed there, but matchups weren't the problem, but the sterile and ass SF4/Xrd WAITING FOR YOUR NEXT VICTIM-screen.
I didn't realize how much I liked the silly pixel lobbies until they took them from me.

We have made it so that you cannot combo anything this patch
We thought that it was too difficult to follow up one button with another, so we've added the new mechanic "strive burst" where if you hit dust on neutral you will do an "auto type combination of attacks"
We have also eliminated all DLC characters as we felt they just weren't very fun
Next season we will have 5 guest characters and be removing roman cancelling as a concept. Please spend your hard earned money on the game you tried to play once or just steal it from us anyways since we are gooks.
We hope you enjoy the patch, arigato san sama

You meme, but it is genuinely surprising that they haven't yet added their version of modern controls considering how much other Jap devs suck off SF6. Fucking Granblue added modern controls despite already having one-button inputs in the regular control scheme.

Anon that Happy Chaos is blocking for 80% of matches despite Asuka having no mana and big gaps in his offense. Its HC thats so fucking ass now(amazing thing).

Testament is legit the worst character in the game bar none, no, the worst character in any video game ever.
They removed the ability to 5k of 236h, this retroactively cancels every single buff the character ever received since 3.0.
Like he is unplayable, he only has 9/1 MU, you probably cannot win some MUs without the other player willingly choosing to lose.

The change is that unless you hit with specifically your big starter moves which have appropriate risk you get no combo.
Just like in xrd on many characters you just dont get major combos off of fishing with low risk moves anymore.

The game has conditioned everyone to be used to dealing half hp big combos off of fucking 2k on some characters and very thankfully that whole gameplay/gameplan is basically removed and gutted

Ight for my Sinbros out there, he is def worse, but so is everybody else. What matters is that while we lost pretty much all our conversion ability, we have kept the DP combos for the most part and that alone is pretty good compared to everyone else. The buff to eat is honestly hardly noticeable. Strike throw in general has gotten a bit of an overhaul since throw isn't PRCable anymore, so his pressure is now scary in a different way. It's a lot riskier since throw whiffing will fuck you completely since you are now on defense with 2 stamina gone, but people are also not gonna be willing to tech the throw since they will eat a combo if they are shimmied. It feels very limiting overall, but I have been seeing some other people doom about their characters so maybe Sin is actually pretty good this patch. It worked out?

Most people enjoy lower power level fighters, fighters nearly killed themselves by only pandering to the deranged kusogefags who think every hit should lead to 30 hit combo that deals 90% damage into a true 25-25-25-25 mix.

my problem is that now you don't get anything fun outside of gorilla mashing your best starters hoping for a counter-hit. there is nothing fun or rewarding about button button special and the fact that you don't get anything except button button special in neutral makes playing neutral feel unrewarding.
i know that between tekken 8, sf6, and wild assault in strive the hot topic is that casino aggression is ruining fighting games but it's also a problem if your game is fucking boring. i did plenty of button button knockdown for the first few years of strive and something with slightly more texture would be nice!

The difference in my estimation right now is that it is now much, much more important to save meter for conversions in neutral off of real investment buttons typically on your S and H buttons. But that also means the opponent can counterhit or whiff punish you for searching for them which creates an actual neutral 2 player game instead of both players shoving their broken low risk buttons at eachkther until one lands and wins the round instantly
Meaty/Saucy combos are still in, but they will require Red roman cancels(**specifically prc is not on the table anymore for combos) off big hit buttons/counterhits, and in general really finding your moment in the opponents neutral to gut them.
>>
WA really made soivers have ego, it's kinda crazy seeing this since I barely played the game after it was added.

I haven't played much since the ranked update but OCE was always just "sit in park on a cab and ft10 whoever comes up to you" region for strive.
Which in practice was all the upsides of a discord fighter (long sets) without any of the downsides (rampant faggotry).
Presumably there's people in ranked right now with 2.0 going on and whatnot as well.

I don't know. I'm skeptical that people are going to be spending RRC more on conversions and not just doing the typical thing where they get their knockdown and then run their close range pressure where they get to blow you up if you jump or mash. Like with the wallbreak pobo change, if you decide to spend meter to get a wallbreak from midscreen you won't get to run nearly as heinous pressure after the walbreak
>>
They kneecapped Asuka way harder than I couldve ever imagined. What do you mean I cant get at least 15% mana off a knockdown? It might be better to intentionally shields down that do fucking charge at this ooint holy fuck
>>
>>563048681
Yeah I was expirimenting and it seems like if you send em fullscreen or get them to block a lot of cubes, it might be a good idea to spam staffs to tap out on mana and rebuild it that way while running away for a bit
>>
>>563048127
That's because for decades fighters exclusively pandered to people who wanted to play solitaire so everyone who wasn't interested in solitaire dropped the genre. Which then proceeded to nearly kill the entire genre until devs took a step back and realized that maybe games where one player doesn't do anything for 90% of the round aren't very fun for most people.

I think it creates a spot where people can choose themselves which playstyle they prefer though, both have merits realistically which is already a lot healthier for the game and player expression(tm)
Also it depends how you rrc, it incentivises using quick rc much, muuuuuch more so the penalty wears off in time for the wallbreak
>>
>>563048840
(Which has an added cool bonus of raising the skill ceiling for routing with quick rc based on spacing)**

I don't understand the role of Counter Blitz when you have better options available. I thought it was to convert a long range poke into an wallbreak or whatever but it whiffs on long range pokes

It's a skill obviously, but it doesn't require any specific game knowledge to know that you should perhaps punish an opponent who completely whiffed a move, nor does it take any difficult execution unless you are punishing with a special/super with a very difficult input. You are essentially arguing that any game of skill cannot be popular which is obviously ludicrous.

reactions are literally part of execution, anti-airing wouldn't be hard for anyone if it wasn't on a timer
and yes of course it requires game knowledge to be good at whiff punishing, it involves frame data, knowing hurtboxes, whiff recovery, some moves are deliberately made difficult to whiff punish even if other moves of their "type" generally aren't. in strive in particular you have/had characters like leo and happy chaos who get to cover their whiffs and punish you for attempting the punish.

also the thing is that fighting games aren't really interesting to watch if they're footsies rollback edition. people want a spectacle. deadlock is interesting to watch and to play even if you don't even really know what's going on. these studios don't keep bolting on high aggression mechanics because they're "pandering to autists" they're doing it because actually only autists want to watch two guys throwing crmks at each other until one manages to confirm and they need more dynamic-looking gameplay to rope people in.

Nah there's usually people in there, especially in prime time. Sometimes you'll need to wait a bit but I don't think I ever saw it empty in an evening? I wasn't playing in some of the deader periods though.
I also probably should have lead with that but I was mid-set myself and already angry. Also I loath SF6's matchmaking with a fucking passion.

from what I've seen
cS can combo into 2H then cS again if started close
5H still floats to tap Fuujin or Kou
both raw Nagiha and [Rin] float enough to 2K if close enough
Kou still floats to bang into wall or continue cS on landing
stagger on raw [Fuujin] hit lets you do whatever the fuck, even hop cS

>cS can combo into 2H then cS again if started close
that can't be right, it's a pressure string, not a combo?
>Kou still floats to bang into wall or continue cS on landing
that's only on a CH 5S starter because you can't combo from tap kou otherwise, also 5D is DEAD, so that's not really a midscreen option anymore
>both raw Nagiha and [Rin] float enough to 2K if close enough
good to know
>stagger on raw [Fuujin] hit lets you do whatever the fuck, even hop cS
pressure is better I guess, not really a conversion thing

If they were going to give Gun a ludicrous delay why not use the animation they already had of the reticle starting away from the character and then locking on instead of it just sitting there and you not being able to shoot because reasons

I know we talk a lot about normal>normal>special but Ram is genuinely exactly that right now.
They removed every juggle from dauro and s bajoneto, the optimal combo from cS is cS>2H>dauro>cs>2h>sabrobato and it wall splat. I think launch Ram required more effort in combos.
Basically any hit is just normal normal sabrobato, from cs, fs, 2k, 5k, 5h whatever.

the way i've always enjoyed playing competitive games is in a lobby kitchen sink sort of setting so network issues aside, tower worked fine for me.

I was REALLY hoping the CH Beak stagger would lead to a combo, but it only leads to a throw. I was trying to do some of the old season 2 6K setups after using 2 stamina, but I can't find any that work. The best new thing I have found is if 236H>H puts them in the corner you can do a raw 214K and be +1 in their face for maybe a throw setup you have to delay for. At least midscreen bnb looks significantly less ugly with the horizontal change.

Dr Baldhead is still MIA
>>
Is the patch still not out on steam?
>>
>>563060247
It is
>>
Venom buffs are fucking insane
The changes to his attack properties are actually game changing, he combos like a mother fucker now and the balls have never felt better to control
I am creaming over here
>>
What's the creamapi numbers I need
>>
damm Baiken sure does feel boring

Holy shit they gimped the fuck out of Anji's j.D wallbounce
>>
i was worried that getting rid of ch hvv would obsolete karas but it seems like they still have some purpose in a few routes, if clean hit sidewinder works like clean hit faf you have to be close for it to work, so

I'm a reactivated old player checking this patch out
Am I allowed to think that the game feels exactly the same?
I fought a bunch of chars, some like Johnny, nago and Sin felt whatever
pot seems bullshit but IDK maybe it's me simply not lacking the knowledge
I genuinely felt like I stat checked the Anji, the BUH-BUH-BUH-BUH-BRISKET and troonstament, like I simply won at the character select screen IDK
For the record I ended up somewhere in high plat so IDK maybe that's a shitter MMR and I'm just fighting shitters but the game feels very whatever to me, thank you for reading my blogpost
>>
Is it worth reinstalling just to play Jack-o?
>>
>>563060636
Why did Arcsys add temu sidewinder to Strive?
>>
>>563060805
Because Sol is a returning character and not an OC, so he is only allowed to have gimped versions of his old tools. Only the super-cool new characters are allowed to have unique, powerful tools and even then those tools get taken away after the newness wears off.

I've always thought jack-o felt pretty fun to play. Go for it.

It's inevitable. All fighting game devs are still on that seasonal model and less character base roster philosophy and we will never get a fighting game that has over 50+ character base roster and no legacy DLC characters unless it's an arena fighter.
>>
I can't believe you guys thought Arcsys knows how to balance a game
>>
>>563060542
if shitty wallbreak didn't exist, less blowback ironically would've gave him sick corner combos
>>
Remember when Blazblue launched with 12 characters?

who is better for a beginner, gio or dolphin girl? and where should i look up guides for them?

>>563062475
Sol or May
Giovanna is exceedingly simple but her gameplan is completely unique to her and you'll develop bad habits if you're just looking to learn the game.
t. Giovanna main for 2,000 hours

probably the main of that pencil neck lead that took over for katano
>>
>>563063203
The decision to give new moves to the characters with the most complete kits in the game while leaving the characters with 4 specials untouched is one of the most baffling in Strive's development, which is jam-packed with baffling decisions.

Shot in the dark, but is Bethesda your favorite developer?

Zato players seem happy which is not a good sign

>>563062690
It was dumb that they designed Giovanna to be the new player character and then decided to give her the clunky ass command dash
>>
Hitler found in Argentina
>>
>>563063527
finally connecting the dots?
>>
this jam bitch got an alien ass head shape
>>
>>563063547
That dash is so easy to use though?
>>
>>563063547
the issue is that its too damn useful, its her entire kit basically, and its not representative of how any other character plays
Sol is much better for teaching players Strive, Gio is better for learning Naoto

Highest peak since launch and still rising

Asuka doesn't feel as bad as I feared but I hate that he can't summon staves in the air anymore.
>>
>>563063842
Ram just hasn't been the same since they changed the way sword pickup works...
>>
2.0 Gio feels better than sex
>>
>>563063664
For a beginner character it is a completely unnecessary layer of complexity that is both boring and mandatory to learn. Giovanna was supposed to be for the shittiest of shitters which is why she has a buff from not spending tension since shitters will completely forget its a thing that exists
>>
>>563063921
Bet for 20k by tomorrow.
>>
>>563063990
For me it was earlier than that when they changed the Rekka so that everything you did required extremely gay, tight dash cancels on a character that was marketed as a glue-eater character. No idea if that's still in the game though.
>>
>>563063842
Patch notes could be "We gave Chipp one more HP" and Chipp players would be "thank you ArcSys I owe you my life"
>>
>>563064329
I mean it's a nerf patch, so any player whose character gets only slight nerfs or even minor buffs should be very happy indeed. It's not like ABA who has already really bad and still had her legs broken.

Much like every fighting game ranked mode, the real game doesn't start until you reach the top rank which you will inevitably reach eventually considering how points are given out
