>>84574751Not just rollback, it eats CPU by just existing, even in menus. I am curious what Idol Showdown is doing with all that CPU juice. I don't play many modern things, I am pretty sure IS the most CPU intensive game I have installed. Its kinda funny.

>>84586018I want to chalk it up to a group of ameture devs but you'd still see shut like this in AAA games. Clearly they are ready for the big time
>>84586018I’m going to bet this is a “devs are not optimizing the game” thing. The most intensive thing should be rollback, followed only by normal gameplay. Menus at the very bottom of the list

Ok, so this might sound a bit like whining and to be fair it is. But does anyone else ever find themselves getting more frustrated at online games than a “normal” person would, specifically because you know too much about the game you’re playing? As in you’re knowledgeable enough about the game you’re playing to the point that when something goes wrong online, you know it’s gone wrong (and how it’s gone wrong) and how it ought to have happened, and that makes you even more frustrated than you would be it just felt vaguely weird? I feel like if I was more ignorant of the mechanics of the games I’m playing, I might be less frustrated when a crucial input drops, or something misreads, or the input delay deletes my reaction, or there’s a snap rollback that changes positioning and context. Am I alone in this?The same thing applied in real life sports when I was up against bad or biased referees

sero with her pov: https://www.twitch.tv/serotinaalso fumi switched to JP for some reason
>>84644329I don’t care about ranking in general, that’s just a number unless it has some tangible consequence on my ability to enjoy what I’m doing. I care when I do something and it doesn’t happen, or something should happen and it doesn’t. It feels like I’m getting gaslit and that really affects my mental state. It would be the same if it happened offline too
wait theres 2 deejays in this
huntress up
lets fucking go huntress
holy shit huntress destroyed boxbox that time
huntress...
fucking clean
hunty gets it!

Serotina is 0-2 again.Honestly, mad respect for going classic aki instead of low level cheese, but it's obviously not gonna work at this point.

>>84652356Based button pusher
vivi...
amour seems pretty consistent. Kind of feels like she's better then her skill level in this tournament is meant to be
>>84652356Objectively the right decision considering the character she’s playing.
damn this round between huntress and this deejay feels way different from the other games today
hunty choked again
huntress cannot beat this deejay at all
Not updated yet, but this could be another 5-0
NUMBERS
>>84652794Her biggest issue is her confidence. As soon as she loses pace a little bit, you can tell she starts tilting more and more until the end of the set.
how is kanna losing to lilypichu of all people
>>84655129It's 3am in Norway her brain ran out of juice
there we go kanna
>>84655129she won tho
>>84655129Update: Kanna sweep.

>>84655890Tbf she was hitting some real combos now, the Broski coaching paid off.
Fumi fighting for her life while having a heart attack.
hunty defeats demon man
man it really does come down to captains
koe just got perfected TWICE
uh oh3 way tie breaker time
>mio fanwait who again, I wasn't paying attention
nephew is locked in for this
>>84639055I keep getting recommended ToD videos for FighterZ and the first thing that strikes out to me is how varied the moves used in the combos are, like there are some airL>airM>airH loops sure but atleast it only repeats maybe 2-3 times before linking into a new move. There should be more anime fighters that try to do that>>84641890If anything knowing how and why something went wrong makes me care less especially if it's something outside my control. I've been playing some of those typical mobile card games that uses energy to summon units and stuff, and if the enemy units are too high leveled that beating them was impossible from the onset, I just don't care and move on. It's slightly different in your case because it just sounds like the typical "I would've won that but my controller sucks" salt, but in the end you don't really have a choice but to accept you have no power over all the bugs and unoptimized bullshit the game has and adapt how you play to never run into those issues again
today i got wiped in the winners finals 0-3 and then in losers 0-3 again ieeeeeeeaaaaaa
shimada is live and no one posted the link...
>>84670797you didnt post one either https://www.twitch.tv/shimadatiger
>>84661603I think maybe you’re not understanding the specific flavor of frustration I have, which is fine. I said it probably just sounds like whining so I don’t blame you. And I think, after breaking down the issue in way more depth with a friend, this is something that does affect me differently and more than it does other people, because it brings bad very negative memories from college ball. If it’s just a me thing, that’s fine. It sucks, but I have a lot of quirks like that and this is just another one I have to deal with. I’ll try to find more locals where I can consistently learn from losses
>>84674395 (me)>brings badbrings back
>>84674395Just to be clear in case I worded it poorly though, I meant that it only "sounds" like the usual sore loser whining, because underlying that is properly thought out criticism about stuff that the average player is unaware about, which is very different. Sorry if I sounded dismissive about it
shimada... you're playing a 50/50 character... you have to embrace it...

Pink cat getting coached by fat man.https://www.twitch.tv/serotinaSome coaches said Sero is the scariest tier 1 for sunday but desu I don't think she has enough time to learn how to deal with mashers.
>>84709139hasnt sero lost literally every match so far
>>84709207no she got 1 point yesterday
>>84709243gambatte sero...
>>84709706shes tryingShe is handling classic aki pretty well now after the training
>>84709921She's doing some real combos now, the issue is that the opponents on her bracket are massive retards and against them hitting combos won't apply too well if she has to confront Doki mashing one button SPDs, Kanna jumping back on wakeup, Sykkuno doing jab jab jab, or Gumi sliding across the screen.
>>84710273im convinced there is no one is beating doki based on the fact that no one can deal with command grabs at all. At least in tekken you can still tech king grabs
>>84710446Highly likely since modern gief is the most degenerate character for beginner tier play outside of Honda who's just degenerate across all skill brackets.Unless they're really mindful of MY LOYAL FANS and get proper practice against it, it's hopeless.

>>84710585Is Zangief the Falco of SF6
>>84721174no zangief is still garbage it just that modern zangief is one button grabs
>>84722952anon , gief is top tier post patch
>>84570390any one up for some streets?
>>84721174I don't know much about Smash but I can tell you about Modern Gief.He's a menace in the lower brackets of skill because his damage output is considerably high for almost 0 effort involved from the gief player, and his main damage tool is also unblockable which forces new players to learn how to space properly and be careful to not be ever be negative against him in close range, particularly when he has level 3 in store, which is a nearly unsurmountable knowledge check for anybody who's new to the genre.In short, a new player needs to practice the matchup before having any chances of winning against modern zangief, meanwhile a new player on modern 'gief can go full unga bunga mode and collect free wins if their opponents get checked.I don't know how much of this resonates with Falco in Melee.
>>84728593It’s Falco/marth I think. Big boxes, easy moves, low commitment and effort. Drawback is your recovery is garbage, which idk if gief has
big brain blanka main: https://www.twitch.tv/olko_official
Can’t figure out why people say this is the “easier melee” when it’s added dozens of competitive required frame perfect techniques on top of it (on purpose), and also gutted some of the things that make melee actually fun. An input buffer doesn’t matter if mechanics still require frame perfection
