Tbh I think GBVSR has a lot of potential, just nerf down top 2, make 66L a lot worse in neutral, lower damage a fair amount, throw range nerf, and make guard cancel AT LEAST -6 lol. Game has a solid foundation just needs significant system changes and it will be great IMO.
FGC discourse made so much more sense once I realized that the average player has a voice in their head going "MUST WIN MUST WIN MUST WIN MUST WIN", even on day 1
Term of the day: "Toki in Accent Core"
A defensive technique in FGC discourse that counters any negative opinions of trends in modern FG system designs by showing a 20 second clip of bad character design in an older game
Named after an Ogawa AC Eddie clip where he wins in 1 hit.

Remember seeing a map thread (thread with a lot of pictures of maps, discussions about said maps) and some dude got mad thinking it was about"minor-attracted persons"
I don't think Strive's success and the lessons learned from it (never make a FG like old gear) are a net positive to people who primarily like old gear
@cabby
I don't think he put 2 and 2 together.
People who never seen abuse (or don't think this is abuse cause it happened to them) are really blind to this
In case a Jam player tries to gaslight you.
Green means 6P low profiles puffball,
Red means it doesn't.
Kliff can only low profile it during the active frames of his 6P, which normally leads to clash.

For newer Johnny players, don't worry about optimizing for damage. You shit out a lot dmg, get the knockdown + lvls. They will die if you just keep them in the corner while you have lvls.
Actual corner BnB vs dollar store variant, 5 dmg.

Also funny how German nationalists love him when he was explicitly not one; he was a Prussian noble, he wanted royal Prussian hegemony over the smaller German states.
This works, until he is a angry teen going through puberty with 50 lbs & half a foot on you and no reason to respect you cause you taught him that respect = power

Sometimes it comes off really cheeky; "Inshallah you get the job" > "If you get it, it will purely be through divine intervention" 😭
"They dont make fgs like they used to it's so watered down"
Good that they dont, half the games yall are talkin bout had people looping unblockables for fun
@twinkdefcon
In the past 10 years, so much 4chan stuff has spread throughout the wider web, the wider web got wider (especially with the pandemic).
It's so strange seeing normal people talk about physiogamy, looksmaxing and lolcows.
@thejb_stan
He's been pigeonholed into the "econ guy who thinks GDP/stock market prices = economy" which leftists HATE.
My favorite exchange was him seeing real wages are up, and people chiming in that inflation outpaced it.
@GHShuffle
Yeah, winning is just the sum. No point in focusing on it exclusively.
But it goes deeper than that. People will get depressed losing to a knowledge check character that they didn't lab or prep against, and take it to heart that they suck 😭

Round trip travel to a ski resort, probably have to dress like you are skiing, haul is a few hundred dollars at most if you can sell, tiny secondary market cause most ski resorts aren't near big cities.
Hit a UNI homie with a double fuzzy setup into a burst safe combo that did 40%, he started talking about the "excesses of modernity" while staring forward the whole time, might not make it to the 24th
@Le_Brutus
Never liked when people said "I don't play competitively, I play for fun", w/e semantics.
But no a lot of people really have the definition of fun as "sunshine & rainbows and I never feel bad ever"
Funny how people respond to "I don't like these omnipresent parts of the new games" with clips of character that they also probably hate.
Imagine going "Oh you hate "Superdash the game"? Bet you get tight when you see Nova on screen."
@Jaguar_Potato_
That's because I live in a sparsely populated region.
Rollback isn't a shiny new toy, it's not a bell or whistle; if the game doesn't have it, online is unplayable.

Matchmaking is the area they would be the absolute worst at giving feedback.
High MMR in every game with ranked is an anomaly, it functions completely different than most of the ladder.
Their advice would only be good for high MMR, which game devs already solicit them for.
The trend with newer FGs is less character variance/depth/strength + strong & easy to use system mechanics. And execution doesn't matter
Not as many tools to solve problems and their problems won't just be in a few characters.
@woodstockSSB
Most people's understanding of "bad words" is just that; they are bad and you shouldn't say them and they don't get into or aren't interested in *why* people have a problem with it
Just something to check off on the list of "why I'm one of the good ones"
