You apes let the thread die when there's a tournament tonight at 8? (Check-in at 7:30)https://challonge.com/Bao_Bang_Bash
being from a small region really makes rank feel like a personal matchup chartbecause sure, I can consitently beat this guy and that guy who are at 1700s, but then there's this one nigga down in the 1500s who just has my number and guesses right on everything I do, and sometimes I go online and for hours the only people playing are my worst matchup x3

>>568634234I'm not even a Strive hater but they could have put in a little bit more effort with the update. A new coat of paint on the ui, and removing wa won't change any core issues people still have with Strive as a whole.
>>568634934Thanks for hosting.
>>568634934I'm starting to think this Gio champion might be a problem...
>>568634934Thanks for the tournament! GGs all
>>568641654Giobro what does one do against Gio pressure, that shit does did not look Christian
>lobby matches aren't saved in public replaysOh. Guess the VOD is going up as is.>>568641509Anytime.>>568641573Maybe. Just maybe...>>568641654Ggs man. Your Gio was criminally good.
>>568642005Which part specifically? Most of it is reading your opponent and seeing what they do once my turn is over. >>568642418Arigato
>sleep fighter 6>70k>kekken 8>10k>Strive>2ki am not satisfied with these numbers and those games can be considered old too. I'm not sure these numbers are strong enough to survive tokon and i don't fucking like tag fighters and don't wanna be forced to play itHow do we make gg more popular?
>>568646118but it only takes two people to play, sis...
>>568634234it's been 50 days already? no way either way the week they kept dropping Google docs killed this general
>>568642861just the corner pressure in general, it both felt and looked very hard to contest
I think strive HAD potential to be a good fighting game but it flopped it hard with the TBB and other weird shit
can anyone teach me johnny? what is his oki set up? and i've been hearing people talk about tk mist finer, what is it?
who is stronger giobro or giorager?
if tomorrow sajam announced a 2xko jam and not the strive slam i'm gonna kill myself unironically
>>568647528Fding actually forces gio to either use meter to continue close up pressure or take a bigger risk to continue pressure. Can go for IB as well after 214k, it's risky but you get a punish. Default to crouch blocking simply due to her 2s not letting you fuzzy jump out. Try to 6p spiral arrow of course, I'd recommend practicing that one, really limits reset pressure and stops gio from doing it in neutral. If you jump out in the corner, maybe super jump but don't immediately do a move when she's under you cause you might get 623s punished.Trying to think of something else. After the normal string of 214k/en214k ends, don't always immediately do 2k every time. Gio can back up and 5h it really easily. Change it up to a dash block or a jump out. Variation in what you do after her turn ends is key into getting out of gio pressure. Sorry for the disorganized mess but I hope it helps a little.
>>568648114I wonder
>>568649246Alright, thanks a Giobro, I'll try to put this into practice next time I run into a Gio.
>>568647984>tk mist finer, what is itIt's a Jump cancel from 5k, or CS into smf.
does anyone want a lobby
>>568647984His oki is pretty universally to throw a card and then do whatever the hell you want>tk mist finerhttps://glossary.infil.net/?t=Tiger%20Knee

I accidentally found Instant Kill videos on Youtube. And they are pure soul. Especially May, Faust and Dizzy
>>568649167You shouldn't allow the decisions of Sajam to affect you mentally.
I accidentally found girls kissing videos on Youtube.
>>568646118I really believe that Arc got "buck broken" once they saw that capcom could just buy out a handful of vtubers for 3.5 days and capture like 85% of the JP space
>>568659863well maybe if they didn't blow their budget on gambling and hookers they'd be able to hire Pekora or properly finance their own anime

>>568678362Ironically, blame China, and conservative factions directing changes in the Japanese equivalent of the ESRB
>>568687284isnt it because it's offensive to the. female playerbase that makes up strive's target audience?

Tournament VOD is now up. Thanks for joining guys and see you in the next one!https://youtu.be/J9Vh963EflQ
>>568689135i have way better combos and mixups than this akari faggot
>>568648114We can find out if they do a FT10.
>>568678362It's exactly like that in xrd
>>568688018>they don't really have a choicei'm so tired of his lie. cero just sets guidelines. it makes even less sense because the age rating went up from B to C. The same rating as sf6, a game which has it's females fighting in high cut leotards. If the same rules applied then why aren't sf6 characters wearing bike shorts for everything. There should be less censorship not more. strive's whole gimmick is mass appeal. it was arcsys' own choice to censor their game as a desperate attempt to lower the age rating because the suits think a lower rating will drive more sales.
>>568696813>the age rating went up from B to C.They were actively trying to prevent that rating change for the game, and failed.>desperate attempt to lower the age rating because the suits think a lower rating will drive more salesIt's a big deal in Japan for where / how it can be marketed and more.

Need help regarding Bedman. I was just in the park looking to get some practice in with my character because I suck (stuck at platinum 1).Bedman player came and he was just at my level I believe. Do Bedman's really live to stay floating around? can they block while hovering? He just kept on jumping and then air dashing with that slice that vacuums. Then doing the ground stuff Bedman does. So I got fed up and just kept jumping into him with a j.P spam to combo and it worked. Obviously not all the time but it stuffed a lot of offense he started with.Also I don't know when his blockstrings ends. It's almost always covered up with those fuck ass bombs.
>>568704612bedman loves jumping yes, so he's very susceptible to air to airs and 6p, but of course he can also stall and bait you so you gotta watch out. he can't block while hovering is active. his pressure has certain gaps too. 2H into bomb is mashable for example, same with his j.s into j.d. but it's a lot tougher to deal with him in the corner now that he has easier ways to loop his pressure.
>>568705319I mean I still won like 7-4. USUALLY I almost always lose to Bedmans in rank, so me going positive might be an improvement.Honestly there were games that I should have won already. But I keep fucking up my inputs in my Keyboard for some reason. Even 236 commands don't come out properly for fucks sake. I don't know if it's because I'm using a keyboard or I'm really misinputing hard.
So once Anji starts his attack string are you just fucked?
>>568709561block low and react to his other options
>>568709561Just block low first and then when he does the green shit continue blocking low and just fuzzy guard the other options.Except when it's the charged green one I think.
>>568709928His Overhead doesnt seem reachable.>>568710143I didnt even think to fuzzy guard
Dunno if it's interesting for you guys but someone released this.https://x.com/cactum_baiken/status/2060317741639237938>GGST Matchup Complement Database>Place characters in the matchup chart to find sub-characters that cover your weaknesses.https://airwire.jp/GGST/ggst_matchup.htmlIt has an english version so you don't get lost.
>>568711881I'm fluent in Japanese actually, so I don't need the English version. Just thought I'd let you know.
As a new player and since I almost hate everyone with the exception of 6 characters this is what they recommended me. I get why Axl. But I'll never ever use Asuka. Lucy is interesting but eh. No to Faust. Johnny is fine.But in the end I'll stick with Jam for now.Maybe they recommended Axl because I put Potemkin and Venom at 3:7. I hate those two so much.
>>568713364>chose joke characterMake Dizzy your second pick then.
>>568711881>Giovanna is virtually no sub character recommendation for other characters. We're just too honest bros
>>568714020Honestly I'm surprised she was not recommended. Well I think it's because the site is new anyway and it will take a while to get actual data.
What's the difference between Strive and SF6 besides aesthetic?
>>568714380we just got rid of our drive rush
>>568711881Th-th-th-th-THE DARK MERCY?!!! AIEEEEEE I KNEEL ANJIGAWDS I KNEEEEEEEL!!!!!
>>568714380Throw protection on wakeup / block/hit-stun for 5F, double jumps and air blocking, the roman cancel mechanic being the primary use of meter, the game being more character centric in interactions than system centric (drive gauge), and that you take space with buttons and threatening options from them rather than using spacing exclusively and threatening to whiff punish or take your turn off of a perfect parry.
>>568723329>air blockingDoes it have an air combat like anime fighters?
>>568714380>>568723545You shitposting/pretending to be retarded or seriously asking? Also I think you mean air combos but yes it does.
>>568711881What was his name again?
Is LordKnight a good player?
>>568735410He's alright. The issue is that age has quite literally caught up to him. He's not as quick thinking and "brave" like these youngsters. If fighting games were big enough to warrant coaches, he would probably make an excellent one. He's always been a lab rat
>>568735657>age caught up to himDon't do that bros please Please tell me there is still time to make it and win competitions as an old unc in fighting games...
>>568736038Well to be fair, all the youngcats are also doped up on Adderall. Maybe if he starts doing meth like the people who actually wanna win then he can comeback
>>568736038You can, age related skill drops are just because of a lack of time grind not physical decline.

>>568740304uhhh, bro...?
>>568735410He's what you call "top level filler". You could put him in any tournament in the world with any lineup of players and there is a very real chance he would get Top 8, but a 0% chance of him winning.

>>568765432It won't but it'll easily ecplise it and GGST will be forever sure on Satudays now on EVO for the next few years. That said BB will be announced next year anyway so GGST will have like 2 years left.

>>568792613I just wish it didn't have this weird balancing shit where it's based on how trans a character is so pot is constantly top tier
>>568777040tuff
>>568792887Why are they so scared to nerf Pot anyway?
>>568793880Afraid reddit will start crying
>>568678362That's even hotter than outright showing it.
>>568793880They nerfed him to the fucking floor, actually.
>>568796871No they didn't. He needs more nerfs.
>>568796871Yes, they did. He needs more buffs.

Question.When you are crouching and you know your opponent is going to throw you and you try to jump. Does it take more frames to actually jump than when standing? By how much? My weakness right now is I always get caught in the tick throw of example Ky. 5K > Throw. But I always block low because of his stupid ass low moves range, so it's scary to stand.
>>568811230She's right about Ky.
>>568811230>her nasally voicegod I need to pump a dorky girl's nostrils full of cum so fucking bad
>>568805409sorry man was reading immortal hulk
>>568814893it's okay babe I forgive you
anyone wanna run some sets?
i wanna run in front of a train
>>568822513Every character should have a move like that. It would be really cool I think.
>>568822734you want every character to lunge at you midscreen like Artorias???
>>568822734>instantly advancing move that lets you confirm off anythinguh oh...
>>568823143He needs it.
>>568813321trvkeWe were robbed from perfection.
>>568823606a new jackhound would be nice...
>>568824184Damn what the fuck
>>568811982It might take longer because of you transition from crouching to standing to jumping. If you are on hitbox or keyboard and can skip the middle than I would say no because you could get it in the same amount of time as if you were just standing.
>>568823606God I feel like such a fraud for playing Johnny...
>>568822141fine! I'll just do something else!
>>568836552make a room and ill join lolz
>>568834710You are.

>>568850215never
>>568773968Nah she's Japanese.
Nice to see /ggg/ back. How are my regulars?
Why the hell am I fighting nothing but axls, dizzy's and testaments in ranked? I thought these characters were supposed to be unpopular.
>>568858698its dead jim
>>568861741what rank are you nigga
>>568858698I'm cooling big dawg
>>568866794What? Why? Did 2.0 ruin the game or something?
>>568868453no they just didnt nerf leo or nago or pot or anji or may or goldlewis meaningfully, which means its the same fucking game in vanq
>>568868732Did you seriously put current day May in the same category as Nago and Goldlewis?
>>568824184>>568811230These are lame, especially the one that's literally 'It's Ragna, but Blue instead of Red.'Strive Ky is genius because it preserves the cape and kingly shit from Overture, preserving the silhouette using the jacket/cape/coat, and showing that he's a guy under all that getup, while going back to the SOUL of the original and its inspirations, to make him fight like he always should have. The pose where he's looking at the camera, and his blocking and big attack animations, him just casually walking in there and pulling his sword like he's in an 80s anime (as opposed to fantasy shit anime intro he has in Xrd) make him look like he's actually a fighter again.
>>568858698Hello anon. It has a tendency to die but we had an anon tourney here 2 days ago between 8 anons, that was a lot of fun
>>568811982If you're blocking or doing something, then it will take longer to go into the jump by 2 frames, I believe, but just being in crouching or standing state shouldn't impact it in strive, unless they changed something.
may needs to be winning off of 5 interactions instead now that shes moving like slayer
I didn't believe when someone claimed she was just better Slayer, but I never knew she had Dolphin feint(s) before then
IRUKA-SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN
They made may so braindead, it's not fun
>>568875824It takes a very high IQ to properly utilize May's movement options though.
>>568866874Plat 3. To be more specific the game basically threw constant axls and testaments one after another at me at the 31.5k mark.
>>568876781That's cope
>>568878319Hello your May in Vanquisher or above proofs?
What does this mean? Wasn't there a recent patch for this already?https://x.com/GUILTYGEAR_PR/status/2060919203050484204>Maintenance Notice]>The PS4/PS5/Steam/Xbox/Win versions of Guilty Gear -Strive- and Guilty Gear -Strive- Nintendo Switch Edition to switch the RANKED MATCH PHASE.>Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
>>568878442I said the original comment and I have played may for like 2k hours. She's braindead easy. Feels fraudulent to play which is why I kinda stopped playing her.
is there any downside to always doing 6p+fd macro even when you are not defending from a crossup? Seems a good habit to have

>>568882592>scrub ass mentality>tranny obsessed retardYep, math checks out
>>568882952Couldn't it just be that no one wants you here? NTA, but you haven't provided proof either and you're making baseless claims that are incorrect.
>>568884491>you haven't provided proof eitherProof of what?What have I said that requires proof?
>>568884869Vanquisher rank with May, your IQ or even proof you've ever played the game? I think we'd take anything at this point. Or none of those things and you just go away forever.
You guys need to FT10 to settle this.
>>568885079>Vanquisher rank with MayI did not ever say -I- was Vanquisher with May or any character>your IQI have not taken an IQ in decades>even proof you've ever played the game?Sure.This whole conversation started because you got asshurt about what was very obviously a joke comment, so regardless of your IQ I know you are some kind of sperg.
The backpedaling that happens in these threads is crazy.
>>568886434Whatever you say spergHow about some proof from the guy who DID say he's in Vanquisher?
a real may fan would admit they are retarded. you are just a larper
>>568870002Damn I missed it. Hopefully the thread lasts long enough for another.

Elphelt's gameplan disgusts me deeply.
Elphelt arouses me deeply
>>568917716Yes, it's why they play her in the first place. Millia players are of the exact same breed.
>>568917120How are Johnny and Ky able to compete with the big boys when they have the most questionable tools, the most nerfed normals, and the fakest, least stable pressure?

>>568922856it's pretty obviousway better movement, better neutral, better pokes, tankier, better antiair, more combo damage, easier access to safejumps. Way hotter. Worse mixups and lack of parry but who gives a shit

>>568923356Luck, too?
do you gain more exp in Vanquisher? i haven't gained a level since Celestial 2024
Can someone tell me if this is fuzzy blocking?I was watching Seisei's (Jam) replay I think it was against Sol. Every time he had to block he was almost always going thing motion and it was fast.Back, down-back, up-back. Basically almost spamming it. But he never jumped when he was doing that.

Sometimes I realize I'm not in good physical condition to be playing ranked because I get matched against a character I play and I can't even visualize what they're going to be going for.I'm an ape so it's pretty normal for to not know things like "matchups" and "counterplay", but when I can't think of how to defend against my own characters and start getting clipped by random dippers while dashing/blocking in neutral, I know it's time to hang it for the day.
>>568966030If you're able to catch yourself in those moments, that's a form of learning and you should be proud. A lot of people can't recognize when they aren't in proper condition to perform in competitive games and will also not allow themselves leniency which is why you see the usual suspects around here crash out.
i tilt too fucking easilyit's not like i scream and break things but it makes me play extremely impatient and aggressive and it fucks me up. The triggers are ridiculous, like i know this guy and he is a fucking zoomer and i hate his zoomer trap singer like voice and after losing one single round the idea of being beaten by such an individual made my blood boil. And it's all in my fucking head, he never did anything to me. I think i'm really fucked in the head ahah
>>568967617this happens to me whenever I play against Elphelt

Why are you having more fun on Guilty than other fighting IPs like SF, Tekken, KOF... What is it that you like about Guilty?
Is there like a vg disc for gg im new and noob and wanna play with some bros
You have to admit that was a fun month for /ggg/.
I feel like the way the tgirl characters like Pot are always top tier while also being easy is damaging to the game
>>568985750We don't have a discord because the last time that happened it didn't do too well
>>568986515Aw, come on. He hasn't even won anything and barely makes top-8s.You want damaging? Look at Mai from SF6. That's what an actual game-ruining character looks like.
>>568987213Pot right now is a braindead character that can zone and grapple and mixup. He needs to get put down.
>>568987213You only need to play the game to see how much of a disaster it is with Pot like he is. They’d fucking murder Sol even worse than he already has been if he did half that.
>>568987213The only reason Pot is even still at this state is because of Pachi. The guy has too much anger with Pot being """"bad"""" from previous GG iterations.
>>568987510>>568988360I agree Pot needs to be toned down; I'm just pointing out he doesn't have over 3x the number of players in tournaments than any other character, let alone make top 8.
>>568983838I prefer Guilty Gear over the rest as I don't care at all about SF. I wanted to get into Tekken 8 but I kept hearing terrible things regarding base mechanics. KOF I also have no interest in, and afaik it's not as populated as the above 3 so longevity might be a concern.t. SC enjoyer
>>568983838Ain't any game cooler than +R
>>568957093I stopped playing online when they forced ranked on me.
>>568976875Once they reduce it to 1 active frame, down from its current 2, it'll finally be balanced like all of Ky's normals.
>>568983838For Strive specifically, I enjoy Asuka and Asuka alone, even if Im getting beat up, theres always something new to learn, plus his playstyle is pretty unique
>>568983838It has actual characters, in an actual world, actual music, and actual style.
Why does Bridget have to work so damn hard for everything? A Slayer can kill me in like 7 hits but oh I gotta do a 12 string combo like 3 times to kill Slayer. It's bullshit.

>today I will play 8ekken after a long hiatus>game director that Harada entrusted the franchise to leaves BamcoDamn, its that bad over there huh
>>569004019Tekken has always been lame. I wasn't even into fighters pre Strive but at least SF is fun to watch.
>>568983838All the characters look cool or hot to me with zero uglies or stinkers(atleast in +R and Strive), I like most of the music new or old like liquor bar and drunkard or crawl, annihilation of low health or mid health characters with slayer is a blast, and unlike the piece of shit game I absconded from, Tekken 8, I actually feel something other than complete nothingness when I win or lose when I play GG. Hope Murray gets the fucking boot too after that dickhead nakatsu.>>569001703Because pixies like bridget cannot and should not ever be good dumbass.
>>569004019Someone correct me if I'm wrong but for the past few years there's always been murmurs of how bad Bandai Namco has become and that Harada has always been heard talking shit about them all the time. By that I mean management.If that is true I mean it's not surprising after Harada leaving, others are much more prone to leave as well considering what they know.Well as long as Murray does not go to Harada I think people will feel safe.
>>569006976>long as Murray does not goHe doesn't know...

coming back after a long break, few questionshow do you properly fight dizzy?also sol seems a LOT weaker now, is that the consensus ?
>>569028434>how do you properly fight dizzy?Depends, but mostly the usual dashblock and neutral jump. If you have something fast with some reach you can try to punish them setting up fish if they're sloppy.>also sol seems a LOT weaker now, is that the consensus ?Yes; he's gotten progressively weaker since 3.5, and is now at his lowest point in the game's run.

>>569044816Why would they lump all vanquishers together, makes no sense.
>>569044816Wow, Vanquisher must not mean much if so many people are in it ;)
>>569045275>(I'll be doing something different for Imperius rank players in the future.)
>>569046296No, what I'm saying is why not break up the stats for vanquisher and do regular vanq and then the other 3 separations. Those aren't imperius
>>569044816Fuck me I'm stuck in Plat 1. Now I know why. All the kinda strong ones (for me) are congregated there.
>>569044816Damn, that plat filter is really fucking strong. Maybe too strong.
>>569044816There really needs to be some backflow! into regular ranks from Vanquisher. They should take everyone <= 1500 DR and throw them back into Diamond 3 at the end of every ranked phase.>>569046815Plat 1 is where the win-streak bonuses end, so it will naturally collect a lot of people. It's also the point at which most people can at least run some or their character's basic offence.>>569048569It's just the point where average collects in the player skill distribution (P2 as P1 is biased by win-streak bonuses prior).
>>569049265>Plat 1 is where the win-streak bonuses end, so it will naturally collect a lot of people. It's also the point at which most people can at least run some or their character's basic offence.Well that's not how it fucking looks like to me against JP players. These fucks have Vanq level setups and reactions. They know where to fucking RC when needed and such. Wall to wall combos are so common it's scary.What's funny is when I drop to Gold 3 and then fight someone in Gold 3 it's piss easy. The moment I step in Plat again I'm getting mauled.
>>569049620You can learn how to run your character's offense with machinelike precision from nolifing training mode. If, for whatever reason, you find that you don't know how to turn any random starter into at least decent damage, you need to just straight up play more.To get over the wall, you need to learn defense and movement, and that's not something you can really lab, or farm from fighting bads.
>>569049620I know it's a tall ask, but is there any way you can show me some of these JP plat players you've run into? Ideally a name I can search in game to peak replays or a replay upload.
>>569049982
>>569049982My biggest issue really is when they start jumping and double jumping. I try to 6P but they almost always get away because they know the timings to double jump as needed.When I'm getting mauled I know it's me that has issues as well that exacerbates the problem. I am checking which parts I can actually poke into, but then I'd get fucked over by a counter. What is kinda making me scratch my head is when I do a chicken block. I almost always get hit trying to do it I don't understand why.>>569050336Look I'm exaggerating. At the very least I'm sure they aren't really Vanq. But they do play like they aren't Platinum. Got an example. I don't know how to copy a JP name so I don't know how to post it here. I fought someone I think a few days ago that I just got obliterated out of the bat. I checked his profile and replays only to find out he has like 3 characters in Diamond 2 already and he's playing like his 4th character.

>>569165762Gio is a fun because I can play a patient midrange walk-and-block for a while or just go "fuck it we ball" and rush in once I see the other guy playing too patiently. She's very straightforward, no frills, which I like a lot. Also Gio has 214k.I guess Cammy can do that too, but there are other characters, like Ken or Juri or Jamie, that I like more who can scratch the same itch.

>>569189531>air dustit's a good air stall, but with the 2.0 outside of that it does literally nothing outside of midscreen combos with a VERY SPECIFIC spacing, so specific that you'd rather drop the wallbreak and get oki rather than gambling if you're are standing on the right pixel or noti should probably up it for the air stall alone though.>dustmaybe, but the range on that shit is abysmal and that's the only thing that matters for 90% of dusts

>>569205251because the mvc generation ended up living in prime times for convincing investors and publishers that mvc clones are a good idea2xko being a flop will probably help prevent future tag games. the future hinges on tokon's success. if it fails then the corporates will probably finally realize that the common link is tagslop

As a complete beginner if I play 8 hours/day everyday for the next 4 months (a little over 1000 hours): How good can I get? How far can I make it in the ladder (ranks)?
>>569218929You'll get better if you play for fun instead of treating it like a full-time job.
>>569218929Your approach to learning is more important than sheer time after a certain amount of hours.
>>569218929You would probably get pretty good. There are certainly people who are quite talented at being bad, but that's not exactly common and tends to be an issue of developing bad habits. Also the type of player you are matters. You could be a complete lab monkey and know every single optimal combo and pressure sequence, but you could end up a complete punching bad if you don't know how to play mind games during strike/throw pressure. The inverse is true as well. You can have great "YOMI" but that would hardly matter if you only ever get 2 hit combos due to not knowing your character well enough. In honesty, if you did play that much, then yeah you'd probably be at least decent. You would be terrible for the first few weeks since your mind hasn't developed the muscle memory for stuff and would be overwhelmed by the numerous things you have to know, but if you're actually a sapient person who can learn then you should have a good time
>>569181140Needs even higher tiers for buttons like 6H or Garuda. I will never understand why a grappler gets some of the best disjoints in the entire game.
back on planet kuso
>>569227803I don't think the giant advancing yolo special is very Kycoded to be honest with you
>>569229989i was thinking of a stinger move you use to whiff-punish and fish for counter hits, but the startup is too fast and the reward is too great, as it takes them directly to the corner regardless of whether it's a counter hit or not. it's pretty bad lol. i'll probably scrap it.
bwos, i'm an elphelt retard and have only really played her since 2.0. I've come to realize that what I enjoy doing is swing big buttons and present strike throw over and over. I actually don't really like the whole rekka high low thing. would there be a better character for me?
>>569231193So you functionally gave him EX fafnir
Friends are begging me to play this game with them, who do I play? My mains were Marisa and Akoomer in slimefighter 6, Terumi and Es in bbcf, and Soriz and siegfried in granblue

>>569234806What if I don't wanna play slayer cause 3 out of my 6 friends mains this gaylord
>>569235308soriz, akuma, and marisa player fits with slayer the most but there's also nago and tgirltemkin
>>569234000Vibes say Sin to me, though I can't really pin down why. Maybe Unika/Johnny/Ram might be worth poking at the moveset of, other midrange, big-button type characters that aren't just the basic shotos. But really it's like BBCF and the answer is whoever's gimmick clicks with you best.>>569235458I'm not sure how Akuma fits with slayer at all.
>>569234821>>569231193Honestly if it left them grounded it might fit that vibe better, and make it feel more distinct. Ky already can kind of use Sacred Edge (or stun edge > kara sacred edge) in a similar (if rarely-worth it) manner in the base game right now. Would let you fiddle with reward on hit/CH/whatever.
>>569236264akuma and slayer both have the same cool factor
I use leverless and I for the life of me cant do half circle forward inputs consistently for supers. Whats the secret to doing them easily?
>>569237687Pressing them properly. You don't need to do it fast. Just make sure you are actually pressing the buttons right. Most likely you are not lifting certain fingers off the buttons when needed.
>>569237152i can make it only launch on counterhit, but the result is that it's super minus on normally hit.desu i orginally tried making it like his xrd instant kill where he dashes through the opponent, but i have enough crossup moves, so i did the stinger thing. do you have clips of the sacred edge kara thing? i've never seen it before.
>>569237687You just gotta practice. You'll get a feel for it eventually. I bought a hitbox when Strive came out so as to play Pot and it took me a month until I got comfortable just doing Potbusters. Grab a drink, put on a podcast and just sit in practice pressing and letting go each button until its drilled into your mind and hands.

How come script users and cheaters never get banned in this game?
hey can someone look at my games and tell me why im losing so muchMy name is kitchencel on there
>>569237687It's not the pressing you are going to have real issues with. It's the releasing. For pressing you are obviously going to have issues going from middle finger to ring finger. Especially on the left side if that's where your directional buttons are. My advice while practicing is include your wrist in it, basically rolling you hand when doing middle > ring. That also helps with the biggest issue. Releasing the buttons. Because you're rolling your wrist, your middle finger will naturally lift off the button so that the button you are pressing with your ring finger can complete the command properly.
>>569242589Did you take your HRT and cocaine?
>>569242385Arc clearly has no problem with macro dash, cheatbox use in tournament, adderall abuse, and flouting "special status" to dodge punishmentwhy would they start policing cheaters now
>>569243769yeah I guess you're right. Does SF6 have a good track record with banning cheaters?
>>569237687Depends how you're fucking up, look at your input history. If you're missing the last (forward) input which you probably are, there's two likely causes: holding the down input for too long, or pressing the back input too quickly so you SOCD away your forward input.You can try doing it slower, rolling your hand with the half circle, or intentionally holding the forward input for a second.
>>569237687Use a pad. The more precise you try to be in this game, the more the input interpreter will fuck you over. Faceroll and mash and if you win, you win. This game is not meant to be taken seriously.
Can I make a living streaming Guilty?
>>569245509No one even plays this game, why would they want to watch (You) play it poorly?
>>569237687I struggled a lot with those at first and no amount of advice helped me. What finally let me do it consistently is interpreting the input differently in my brain. I started seeing it as 632145 6 HS. I could not tell you why I couldn't do it before, the inputs looked fine to me but I'm guessing there was some kind of mistake in the timing
Anyone that has trouble pulling off basic inputs on any controller is worse than disabled. Brolylegs played fighting games with his fucking face and didn't complain. Kill yourself if you're asking for advice on how to use your God given hands.
>>569242589Take my words with a grain of salt but here's my guesses from your matches that stood out to me>potemkin vs kyYou started off rough but came back nicely. It felt like the Ky knew the matchup really well since he was consistently using his projectiles to shutdown your hyper armor approaches. I noticed you used FD a ton in those matches, arguably more FD blocks than regular ones and that was leaving you pretty dry on meter for most of those matches in particular but it seemed to have worked out in your favor.>potemkin vs baiken This felt like a failed knowledge check. The baiken constantly got you with her jump in air attacks, and they caught you every single time. You possibly could have punished this hard with Heat Knuckle but you unfortunately never made the attemptt. strivelet
Here's my ranking for the BP Battle UI skins.>1. TestamentSimple and nice to look at. To be honest if this was the initial UI of Strive I wouldn't bitch that much of the base UI of the game.>2. JamFun to look at and not overly decorated even though it's colorful.>3. Zato-1Small and simple but nice to see.>4. BaikenFeels too decorated in the middle but I like the colors.>5. Leather and MetalActual nice simple free Battle UI from the BP.>6. GoldlewisTotal dogshit. Looks stupid to look at. Looks low quality.
i'm not gay but i want bridget to cum on my dick and jerk me to completion using that cum as lubricant
>>569242589I think one flaw I'm starting to notice in general is not using certain moves in certain situations/gameplans. Slidehead use would have made for punishes against the Ky who was projectile spamming. Heat Knuckle would have badly punished the Baiken who relied on air attacks for most of her confirms. Hammer Fall use would have greatly punished or atleast unsteadied the May who was out poking you in neutral and committing at you with her dolphin
>>569240914Fantasy strike has a Slayer function, plus an Anji function with Slayer characteristics. Said Slayer function used to be so blatant that he his pilebunker move was called just that, but they changed it to a different name later.
>>569229989>>569231193>>569227803But he has one like that in +R as a force break, so I think the kuso version needs to be more standout'ish, like it should put the opponent in a stagger for a very long time, so you can go for a kuso grab into a kuso combo, then you get the wallbreak.
>>569206937But mahvel is too chaotic for them in a good way, bro. It's so godlike watching brown men with lisps executing kuso combos on each other while the commentators talk about how shit be pringles, and WHAT AN ANSWER while the same laser beam move is looped 5 times in the air.
just looked up a few xrd matches and that shit looks so unpleasant to playand yes, i started with strive, but i also play plus r too and i love both
Why do strive babbies larp so hard? Just admit you like the taste of shit. The harder you try to "fit in" the more foolish you look.
>>569240914Man, xrd looks so fucking ugly. Everything looks untextured and the proportions look off. The impact of the hits look so weak.
>>569245509If youre streaming with the objective of making money, you already failed. Unless youre an industry plant, you just stream as a hobby and see if you get lucky or not.
>>569234000>terumiYou want a shit-tier character who is barely functional, loses to basic defense, and isn't even that strong if you have your resources? Lucy or ABA is a good fit.
>>569253468yeah the game should explode into a cacophony of eye rape every counter hit like strive
>>569245509Purely streaming fightan wont pay you. So many people have attempted it, Jiyuna, Kizzie, and even Max. The former 2 realized this and quit, the latter became a variety streamer for the big payout. Even then, you're wayyyyyy past the hype period for Strive. Maybe try Tokon, and even then I doubt you'll make a living because again, nobody makes a living streaming fighting games is not consistent compared to other ez genres to farm
Is there any penalty for ragequitting in ranked? People are constantly ragequitting on me in Vanq. Do you at least lose points?
went to a nearby local (very small, only 11 competitors) for the first time and just mashed my way to finals with lucy but then got obliterated by a great giosome people came to me to talk after because they had never seen me there and I couldn't keep up with the conversations at all, I don't know whats an OS and I dont know what frames most moves are. I just sorta know that if I hit this specific move in that specific situation it tends to work and then if I truly have no idea I just DP. honestly made me feel like kind of an idiot
>a smash streamer forced strive out of sunday so we get the Robo-Ky trailer a day earlier Based.
>>569258208It's annoying how Leffen really thinks he's the face of the game when he hasn't been relevant since his win and no on even wants him there.
>>569259252Ackshually its Ludwig. Rivals of Aether 2 got the Sunday slot because Ludwig is going to pay for your entrance if you sign up for Rivals. That said, I expect 75% DQs from that game and people would probably be less than stellar seeing it on Sunday
I was reading some random bits of lore in the last few days. How did people feel about super happy ending for everyone in Strive?
>>569261028Most people feel its super sappy ans lost a lot of grit to it since theres no longer any "real" conflict. Compare to say Blazblue where Terumi is actually evil evil and not a misunderstood Dindu like Asuka or HC to some extent. Funny since when BB ended around the tail end of the 2010s most people felt that Ragna got shat and that the ending didnt do him justice. These days the opinion has flipped, Sol getting a happy ending feels a bit boring and that Ragna went out on a blaze of glory
>>569262185Eh both Ragna and Sol deserve it happy endings.That said FGs are kinda "what the fuck" anyway with how they tell stories, no matter how much the developers try to dress it up to make it more palatable for players to look into.I know it's a long shot but Arcsys need to bring back BB. It's time.
>>569241976fat jacko is going to be so happy
>>569231193>>569240072make it minus on normal hit, and apply a ridiculous freeze if it hits while the opponent is in shock statethat way it's not generic advancing move with big knockback/tumble
>>569262185I like Sol getting a happy ending. it feels like he's earned itthe theme of 'Striving for happiness' is toothless in Strive because nobody is facing hardship or suffering. it's all happy idyllic paradises for everyone. striving.tm isn't narratively satisfying without any struggle
>>569262185What does mean for the future games? Is the series over? I mean they resolved all conflicts.
>>569265432faust is all fucked up and sin and unika are set up to inherit the torchplus daisuke seems enamored with multiverse shit which is set up in strive
>>569234000for a-coomer pick jam, she has the demon flip and all the bullshit that comes with it
>>569255627eh, i'm not too fond of tokon, maybe i'll try when the next gg comes out. I suppose it will do well considering the bigger fanbase strive built
>>569257340You can always flesh out your knowledge / terminology anon; dustloop and infil are right there.
>>569257340Based intuitionchad
>>569240798>>569249446>>569264350Ok, I increased the startup, reduced the travel distance, and kept the minus on hit. the ss version makes it more plus on hit, and it only wall bounces on ss counter hit. now it's more of a frame trap than whiff punish optioni'm liking it a lot more now. thanks fellas
why does it feel like some character discord such as I-No's feel like they exist to discuss the character in question is your transition goal, instead of discussing the gameplay
>>569271880don't go to character discords
Anyone want to play a set?
>>569250783For me it’s just strive has too much weird shit in it.
Please god let it be bbtag 2.
>>569277836Xrd is the one that has too much weird shit in it for me.
>>569261028felt gay and menopausal, like current Daisukethey can redeem themselves through the final story clip whatever-the-fuck of Strive being Delilah experiencing her first orgasm which casts the universe into a pocket dimension where everyone has animal/monster installs and Jedah Dohma has come back to be the final villain
I was trying to make this fun guilty gear gameplay quiz but for the life of me I couldn't come up with questions pertaining strive because the cast is so homogenized, so here are the questions, they are related to xrd and +R:1: This char doesn't have a cS or a fS, just a 5S, who is this character?2: This character has a 4f cS that is +2 on block, who is he/she?3: This character's 5K can't be jump cancelled, who him is?4: This character's 2D is a meterless launcher against some members of the cast, not everybody though5: This character's burst has 6 more invuln frames than everyone else.Can (you) answer my questions, /gbvsg/?
the most annoying person you know plays a zoner and thinks theyre clean

>>569277407xrd?
>>569284720Strive.
>>569285271:(
>>569285431Sorry I always wanted to get into XRD but at the time I was playing other games. Only reason I even played Strive was because I felt like I missed out on XRD and I loved GG characters.
>>569285573Nothing stopping you from playing the main games now though
>>569247896>>569249086Ok thanks for the advice guys..upon review i definitely need to use hammer fall more. Something i also want to do is land more potemkin busters. I can do the input semi consistently in practice but I never have been able to hit one in game :(
>>569285573all good, i followed the same path. I just started getting into xrd after years of strive and its very fun. i kinda was holding on the idea that strive would eventually become rev3, but im just retarded
>>569281443really cool answers, they all check out. I was actually thinking of Leo for 3 and Elphelt for 4, I guess I learned something new about this game, very good answers. Thank you
I just got to platinum 1 with jam as a new player and I'm going to to explore other characters for a while. I'm having such a hard time against Pot, Goldlewis, Ky and Unika. Feels so oppressive for me. Might try Dizzy if she's easy or check out Unika because of the easy button presses.
>>569286125I don't play games with really small playerbases, or at least not after the fact. I like to play at the start of a game's lifespan, when it's the most popping and I'm not playing catchup. >>569286449Yeah, I played a little bit of XRD when it got rollback, game is so much better than Strive it isn't even funny.
>>569294159I can’t actually speak for xrd myself but you could definitely still find beginners in plus r and cf, and likely xrd too. But you do you.
I DID IT! I HIT MY FIRST POTEMKIN BUSTER IN A LIVE GAME!!! I ACTUALLY FEEL LIKE IM BECOMING GOOD NOW!!!
brisket bustah
>>569256681No there isn't
>>569270059This looks way more interesting. Show some ultra kuso combos you can create with it.
Where can I get the Strive for very cheap please (the cheapest)? I'm broke...
>>569304445Wait for a sale, it goes on sale often. Or buy the base version on a key site, although the 2.0 Starter Edition on a sale is still a better deal if you want the DLC.
>>569304445buy the base version key and then creamapi the dlc
We really need some more outright evil or antagonistic characters in strive. The only characters that are evil evil are Happy Chaos and sorta I-No, but Ino is just kind of a jerk but barely does much.
>>569309610Terumi will be character number 3 in the season 5 pass and Ragna will drop his Sir Bloodedge larp to stop him as character 4, trust the plan
I miss Jam's vacuum-sealed tits
>>569310882I miss jam being fun. I will never forgive them for taking away the most fun thing about jam, the reason every jam mains play her, to make her a generic resourceslop character like 70% of strives roster. >b-but doing specials into specials would be OP in strive!I. Don't. Give. A. Fuck. Make her second special do like 20% damage or some shit.
>>569309610Goldlewis?
>>569208203I've already seen shounentards set them themselves up with this thinking they'll be getting a Naruto fighting game.
the apex of character design to a jam player is chaining specials into specials, amazing insight into the mind of a toddler
>>569311741What exactly are your problems with Strive Jam? I main Jam in +R and think they translated her pretty well into Strive. She's missing a few things but unlike other Strivers, they actually kept the core of what Jam is intact. Her hyper rushdown gameplay, her stubby but relatively fast normals, her cards and having to find openings to power them up, big corner carry opportunities, annoying opponents with command dash puffball.
>>569314459Nta but they went really gay with the censorship to make the trannies happy
>>569302712That's actually insane. How the fuck do these developers constantly miss something so basic
Do you need to take notes and/or recording your games to get better? If so I don't want to go back to school again and having homeworks
>>569316954You don't NEED to but it absolutely helps, and if you want to get better I highly recommend doing so. I remember it was one of the biggest ways I broke through my plateau in the first couple years of me playing. I don't really do it anymore.
>>569314459Do you actually play Jam? I don't but what I thought was the cool part of the character that all her players liked was the chaining kick specials into each other part and that's what they removed. Maybe it's different in +r where she's more of a 6H bot?
>>569317514Chaining her specials is fun as hell but I also know how absolutely busted that would be in Strive.>where she's more of a 6H botYou got me, I love spamming 6H in +R. One of my favorite buttons in all of fightan games.
>>569316936Most people who play fighting games are scrub faggots with ego issues and arcsys is selling seasonal and battle passes. If they started banning people because of the main traits of the core audience, they'd lose money. They didn't miss anything, they just don't care about competitive integrity.
>>569317952at least i can quit on wifi niggers that randomly get good signal strength but then it turns out its actually 7 rollback
>>569318725That's the only good part, but the devs could easily add better options like allowing players to filter out wifi all together or a better solution than needing both players to agree to end a match because of the poor connection. If the game already knows it's a shit connection, why even bother letting it continue?
I think when they talked about the game during the 2.0 release, they said they would "look into" implementing penalties or even detection but y'know how that goes
>>569317952You don't need to ban people just subtract points and give it to the opponent. It's not hard. But you're probably right that it's intentional because there's really no other explanation. Incompetency only goes so far. It's too rampant and obvious in fighting games.
Holy FUCK these baboon fucking retards who don't cancel the match when it's moving in slow motion.
>>569324851That's the point. They cause the lag and it gives them a better chance to win. You lose when you take this game seriously.
