This guy is so fucked
He plays keyboard - his converter broke
He borrowed a pad - his pad broke
I taught him how to use my stick in 10 minutes and he’s gotta play for his

Two floor 600 sqft single room with a ladder up to the galvanized steel platform holding your bed and the summer clothes with a 3foot triangle backyard garden under a galvanized steel tub for bathing and summer fun
this is how fast rematch is in SF6. devs, please stop making us watch fadeouts, forced outros, doing stuff like artificially delaying the menu popping up, etc. I want to rematch literally as fast as I can hit the button after the KO
I see this kind of question all the time in FGs
“What am I supposed to DO about [obviously disadvantaged situation]?!”
I don’t know how to explain to people simply enough that if offense in the game is working as intended, you are supposed to lose 51-100% of the time there
DON'T END UP LIKE THIS GUY, USE YOUR GRAB TECH OPTIONS
OD reversal
Level 1 super
Hard tech (fastest throw tech)
Delay tech (latest throw tech)
Jump tech (jump forward grab tech)
Delay Jump Tech (down back up forward grab tech)
You can beat grabs without overcommitting!

You can’t save the league of legends player that wants to quit after losing 20 matches of 2XKO
Announcing retirement on day 1 is the surest sign it never mattered to them
Talk to the people asking questions instead
Genuinely did not understand how anyone could be this patient in any Fighting Game until I remembered both players were looking at GRD at the bottom and this is a GRD exploit
Say what you want about the Granblue Official advice, but it’s pretty rare for a FG social media to actually lab even moderately useful options for the community
These videos are not being posted for top players, low level players do need to know mechanics are in the game
🛡️ Blocking a light dash attack leaves you at the mercy of your foe's offense—long-reaching attacks can keep them out.
While defending, stay cool and look for gaps in your foe's pressure or cross over to escape. You can also use a Brave Counter to get them off your back!

If you want to avoid becoming the FGC main character, don’t go into streamer’s chats, offer advice and get upset when they don’t want it
INSTEAD, employ the Streamer Gambit - open their stream after you win and see if they say anything crazy about you, then CLIP IT if they do👆
I keep seeing Strive discourse on my TL which got me wondering, are there any fighting games that y'all think got *worse* with an update? (title updates - not ports)
i.e. Alpha 3 -> Alpha 3 Upper
@Dacidbro
A League of Legends player doesn’t quit after 20 losses. That’s something you made up because you want to talk bad about others to feel better about yourself. Everyone that has played League knows you start off with a shit ton of losses.
“Oh you play this? How good are you” responses implied strength revealed
I beat everybody! - bad
I used to play this all the time - ok
Im top 3 local - strong
Ahh I don’t know - very strong
I’m pretty good - absolutely demonic
Im top 8 specific major - will kill you
Might have just found the gold standard for
#2XKO_EKKO
install mix
Improvised a double left right, and realized it could be significantly better
1 - nudge, dash jump orb left right
2 - depending on nudge you can land both sides either way
3 - high low option
#2XKO_AlphaLab
It is statistically likely you have never played your favorite Fighting Game yet!
Keep trying more games more often, especially when you can try something a friend owns or at locals
This advice sparked by” ArcSys should remove DP RC” when 99% of FGs just don’t have it already
“My opponent is plus, what do I do?!”
-Option Select and pray
-Block and pray
-Tech grab and pray
Please notice none of these feel good unless your opponent is not pressing their advantage accurately
@Bri4nF
Yeah the persistent takes about “you have to bask in your loss” as if every match is emotional
When I’m trying to play literally a hundred matches in 1 day I’m just there to improve
If either of us needs the pause they won’t hit start, and if we think we don’t mind ya business
When you pick a character in FGs, you pick all their strengths and weaknesses
They have to be evaluated individually in every game - the similarities will cause hallucinations
I’m good at picking strong characters, so I think it’s worth a quick thread
I don’t want to buy too much into conspiracy theories, but
I think he announced this right now to suppress Granblue top 6 EVO and I’m not gonna lie it’s kinda pissing me off
I honestly feel like
@FGC_Angrybird
not taking the round and the integrity of the full set staying intact, incredible quality from both players having a great time
It’s iconic of this new golden age of fighting games we’re in
What a pleasure to watch
There is a very bad feeling associated with sitting down to play a game you haven’t kept up with and your opponent picks the DLC character that launched after you stopped
I have heard a few people needing to switch from leverless to stick for ergonomic reasons lately
I wonder if leverless is not actually the ergo catch all it was thought to be?
I stayed with stick so I have no idea - does this sound familiar to anyone?

Will it Kill rules
Game pauses with this quote at the start of any super that will kill or not kill by no more than 3-5% in either direction
Seems like something that could be coded pretty easily in that exact framework 🧐
For what it’s worth
My first fighting game was Blazblue CT
I lost 300 matches STRAIGHT before taking one
It does hurt and it’s very frustrating, but I promise you can gain a lot from this genre
Keep asking questions and keep trying
Commentators - I can save you
Any time you would mention frame data, just add “used to be” before it
“Daigo meaties with DR, used to be plus here - COUNTER HIT on the used to be plus frames this is going for used to be HUGE damage - THIS USED TO KILL, WHAT’LL IT BE TODAY?!”
My heart goes out to the SF6 commentators at Combo Breaker this weekend that are going to have to speed-read 50 pages of patch notes tomorrow or risk getting blown up online for getting a single callout wrong during matches
Happy 6/23
You are invincible today, from the moment you wake up
You don't have to block anyone, even if their opinions are bad you just cut right through it
You are extremely unsafe on block
You are taking tremendous damage from a combo, you have no burst, why do you do this
“My opponent character stance is CRAZY what do I do?!”
You do your damn homework
If this question isn’t facetious the answer is going to be ANNOYINGLY specific so get off social media and boot up training mode for a few hours
Otherwise?
welcome to the casino - the house wins
alpha lab codes have been sent out, so check ur emails! remember the game is wip, so here's a list of known issues fyi:

Karma must be real cause I turned $200 into $622 on craps after this
I am having a better EVO than you, dear reader, but I hope I can help yours soon 😁
What the hell happened here?
GRD is a tug of war timer won by more colored squares when it hits top of circle
Player 1 has numerous ways to win GRD here if they do almost nothing, so Player 2 generates a TON of GRD by walking forward giving no clear signal until he wins GRD 🥶
@stephentotilo
@tha_rami
Unreal that they just confirmed the intuitive abuse is accepted unless it is REPORTED
Why would anyone trust Unity to detect this fraud if it earns them money
Unbelievable
How did you find a way to use the passive voice for this
“The game crash happened” bro let the banana hit him, paused, jumped back activated push block and SMILED after the game crashed THIS IS SO PREMEDITATED
JAIL 🤣
for BOTH OF YOU
And here’s my thoughts on the discourse
-“GGs that was me” is funny every time but you have to be ready for the absolute worst if you do it
-Unsolicited advice is CONSTANTLY a bad idea
-Learning a new character in UNI in public sounds brutal
-Streaming is a blow up
@Super__Yan
He asked to remain secret 👁
As part of the coach - student aspect he said “it never leaves this place”
Willing to come back to this if he changes his mind
Playing guilty gear on a single joycon is one of the most insane and fucked up things I’ve ever seen
Even showing this as a viable input device in UI should not hold up in court
We have to save the Switch gamers
Had to run home and see if the mix I was using could work with this and sure enough, another absolutely disgusting option off this setup works perfectly and saves me the bar I was using on install
SQ too good 🙇♂️
#2XKO_EKKO
has OPTIONS, goes front back twice w/ high low layers
Found the most disgusting Ekko mixup that loops into itself. Uses super jump drift to mixup left/right, can do double highs, empty low etc
This gotta be the most unblockable character ever made

It’s table stakes to know where the game is lost and won
As an exercise you can try significantly different goals
-Playing to win (aggression, minimize opponent)
-Playing not to lose (zoning vs a grappler, reactive)
-Playing for info/time (avoidance, giving ground for low risk)
“My character has no tools to fight character, what do I do?!”
If you are correct, hopefully you can lean on system mechanics to get by, and when you get in it’s a big problem for them
But.. do you want to live like that?
Really, check your conviction if the struggle feels bad
You know fighting game culture has no memory because somehow Zato is considered “cool” and “not a problem” by Strive players and that has stuck even after Zato players are getting their results
Can’t be letting these people win their culture fight
Puppets are always wrong
I’ve done so much in the FGC and met so many people, and I just don’t have time anymore
And then I realize how many players haven’t played me in my prime, and my blood carbonates and my brain stops and I’m like “yeah I can learn 1 more FG”
So yeah that’s why I play Granblue
If I had a nickel for every time I won a dakimakura in a competition of video game skill, I’d have two nickels - which isn’t a lot, but it’s very weird that it’s happened twice
GGs everyone in Bloody Roar!
Great to meet the community, had a great time!

“SF6 is the problem, we have to go back to 5!”
As if we weren’t here for the 7 straight years of complaints about 5 what are we talking about
Mel just came up and asked “do you know what the orange Kirby is”
I said what do you mean
She said like what is the name of the orange Kirby character
I say Waddle Dee
She says WADDLE DEEZ NUTS
I can't find the right words for it but clowning on
@ZomBmu
for playing Nier in Granblue right now feels like.. revisionist?
Do people actually not know how many times he's won Granblue events?
He is simply more serious than you, he doesn't like Nier either lmao
🩵🩵🩵 🥹 I voice A.K.I. IN SF6!
my fave mixup is when you're an FGC baby and then you grow up to be a voice actor and then part of a main Street Fighter game to prank the homies
haha got em
It was wonderful to work with you

Imagine me saying
“Well speedrunners can sometimes catch a pixel perfect notch in the wall so you could lab that to try to increase your conversion here”
Imagine how much time is wasted compared to “You already lost, jump and move better next time”
That’s the point today
No joke this makes traveling to Midwest and East Coast tournaments way more possible and appealing
I got hit with the flight delay/cancel to Frosties so many times I stopped thinking I could reasonably make it
@elonmusk
@KimDotcom
The most embarrassing single week a person has ever had online
"Hmm wow great point the company will do that right away, in direct contradiction with yesterday's only posts stating that major policy changes will happen via poll, and that Elon will resign"
Stunningly bad at this
Other than some attempts to answer these anyway, if I had to summarize
Focusing on the clear loss moments is frustrating, and not as rewarding as converting neutral more effectively by reducing loss and increasing gain
Be active, get your win cons online
Good luck out there!
We’re still talking about Slayer ruining Strive huh!
I don’t know what to tell y’all that game has been fucked up every single version!
If you EVER for a SINGLE MINUTE, with bright eyes and a smile thought “this version! this is the good Strive version!”
IT WAS YOUR CHARACTER
@Kira_SSBM
If you think a being with these parameters is pulling the strings, I don’t know how you can view them in a positive light given what people go through out here
If they are omnipotent and don’t prevent all catastrophes, I don’t want their opinion on management, much less morality
People say I’m reacting favorably to Project L’s tag system because I’ve played games like it, enjoyed them and was good at them - not because it’s “good game design”
Actually, if I’m good at it, that makes it a good game and the conversation ends there. No more questions
