Jarvis, pull up old vs Bridget win quotes

>try out Slayer

Well this sucks

played like shit
humiliated myself
people in vc are surely laughing
anji is such a faggot of a character, cancer upon him
i hate everything, thank god i was not born in america with easy access to weapons

>>526952082
>he thinks everyone who plays strive thinks Bridget is a troon
lol

breadly sin

Anji is great, peace be upon him

how are my +Rchads holding up

Today I briefly made the mistake of feeling bad for a Jack-O...

now people are starting to avoid be in lobby
FUCK YOU I'LL MAKE YOU PAY

Finna make a lobby and not play anybody in it.

>>526957649
I am still trying to learn Testament and cannot get one hit badlands on lightweights.

>>526952910 (OP)
delilah OP? das GAWDLIKE

Strive is a lot of things but at least it has proper inputs. BBTAG did a lot of damage for tag fighters I dont know why these fgc personalities-turned-fighting game devs loved it so much

I really don't get why every single fighting game now needs to have one button specials, to me it feels similar to how RPGs now feel the need to reinvent the way turn-based combat works because it has this stigma of being boring and slow

>>526959441
freestyle it like sol sidewinders. idk, are you using net and doing enough jP's to get them at the right height?

For a while I've been relying on 6P to check Johnny's BRC after wallbreak but TIL the idea of blocking is apparently just completely optional for Johnny at all times, he can just choose to backdash after teleporting into my move's active frames

>>526961343
>no motion inputs
huge yikes
was very willing to give the game a shot despite the clunky animation but i really hate this shit

>>526961970
it's because of the myth that casuals don't play fighting games because of motion inputs
the reason casuals don't play fighting games is that there's no casual content in most of them

>>526960193
made for one armed japanese milfs

>>526962054
I’ve mostly been practicing it from nets and beast hits so I’m having trouble keeping them from going too high. Specifically Baiken was who I fought earlier. Does the combo in this video still work in +R?

>>526962815
dunno, its TAS too so it might not be humanly possible. This one definitely isn't humanly possible

The thought of people that will be seething about strive for the rest of eternity and completely deny the reality that it both was and still is atleast 10 times more popular than the older games is funny.

you think they will keep crying for the whole marvel tokon run into strive 2? Seems like a long time to hold a grudge

>>526964005
Probably.

>>526964005
They'll run off to Mihoyo games when they don't get new brisket content because of Marvel.

finna dark angel

>>526964341
i blocked that

>>526964005
Considering graspingone and this guy who brings up bridget when no one is talking about him like a schizo, yes. The only way these guys would've let it go is if strive did just as bad as Xrd did.

>>526962948
I see, I’ve been trying to watch kesuke’s streams and see what he does. I need to spectate him when he’s on sometime so I can get the replays but I’m usually asleep or gone.

>>526964005
Even if Tokon ends up being halfeay decent you'll never escape Bridget """"discourse""" to them, ArcSys starts and ends with Bridget. Go to mainstream vidya sources talking about Tokon you'll see the odd 2-3 people already shitting in it because it is le woke, and if you ask them why they'll tell you because of what they did to Bridget

>>526961343
it's a shame corporate types are too retarded to learn from strive
it's been proven that accessible systems matter way way more than accessible inputs

how does the +/- on rating update work?

>>526965045
From the trailer they learned from the worst part with wallbreaks lmao

>>526965380
Wallbreaks aren't inherently bad. They're just poorly implemented in Strive

>>526964005
Who is they

>>526965380
Thats the least of concerns considering it has magic series, an airdash that doesnt feel like molasses and aerial rave

>>526965045
accessible systems hasn't work ever since they started doing them

>>526965496
It did for Persona, but that was a strange case where they added 1 button DPs and no DP motions but had retarded character mechanics like baseball and weather so it balanced it out

>>526965380
Invincible VS has wallbreaks?

>>526965380

>>526965257
It's glicko 2 I think. It's one of the systems that's designed to calculate your actual skill rating and not just give you free points for dopamine.

>>526965476
The airdashes are 7 frame start up. Identical to Strive

>>526965257
It's modified glicko
>>526965380
Wallbreaks are good actually. And stage transitions have been happening since MK3 at least.

>>526965950
I doubt it's the startup that make Strive's airdashes feel slow. There's something fucky with the acceleration, I think.

>>526965447
They’re absolutely unnecessary imo. Make whatever the FD equivalent is be stronger in the corner or something like that. Long ass animation is annoying.
>>526965658
I wasn’t paying attention and thought this was about the new marvel tag fighter. Looked like it has wallbreaks.

>>526966215
Long? It's like 3 seconds.

>>526966148
>>526965893
how does the (+/-) of glicko 2 work?

>>526966282
In strive? Wallsplat and the break animation takes a while unless they sped it up. I hate all cinematic cutscenes in general, always gets old fast.

>>526965380
>>526966215
Wallbreaks are the least of strive's problems and are like 2 seconds tops.

>>526965257
>>526966148

https://puddle.farm/about
It's the Bradley-Terry model.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bradley%E2%80%93Terry_model

>>526966542
I might be remembering it wrong, I haven’t played it in a while. Cinematic supers usually play before it so that adds onto it. They should make a setting to where you can skip it and it does a quicker normal animation instead of a cinematic one. Leave the option off in tournaments or whatever.

>>526965639
p4a should've succeeded

is there an OS to dealing with ram's strike/throw sword toss? there's this dude who has literally never guessed so far over a really long set

>>526966514
It's 3~4 seconds bro I timed it. From the stick to the character standing back up on the new screen. Obviously slightly dependent on how long you let them stick there and if its a HKD.
I sorta like these seconds really. It gives me a few moments to think.

>>526960193
>>526952910 (OP)
Kissing her lips

>>526966816
It did actually, thats why it got an enhanced edition. Blame fatlus for making...literally every other spinoff for P5 instead of going back to a spinoff that DID work

>>526966438
it's a bunch of fucking math dude are you underage
the player who has more points has more to lose and the player who has less points has more to gain because it assumes the player with more points will win more often, thus balancing the scores out
the actual formula is beyond the scope of a 4chan post to explain
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glicko_rating_system

>>526966816
The netcode was hot ass and it took too long to come to PC.

>>526967096
imagine strive's battle system like p4a, I doubt the normie audience could tell the difference

>>526966846
Fuzzy jump will beat layer one strike throw every time. You have to go to layer 2.

>>526966816
didn't arcsys get in a fight with atlus or sega about updates or something and that's why they never made another one?

>Guard crush somebody so they don't have throw protection, thus allowing strike/throw to hit on the same frame
>Just fuzzy jump the literal 50/50
OK 4 Channel, good advices

>>526967531
I forgot Ram has guard crush.
Maybe you're just timing the mix wrong and fuzzy jump is working anyway.

>>526966850
I dunno, they feel annoying to me. I don’t like being taken out of the match into cutscenes. Feels sf6 where you get the movie length level 3 after a drive rush combo.

>>526967801
Have you seen the supers in the new Bleach arena fighter that people are trying to make competitive?

>>526967860
I haven’t, I’ve never had much interest in arena fighters.

>>526967120
No no, I'm not asking about the whole thing, and I get how it works in general. I'm asking about the (+/-) variance. Like the, +/-6 next to someone's rating.

#RAPEKATANO

>>526968354
it's just a confidence rating isn't it
the smaller it is, the more certain it is in their elo, the less you'll climb/fall
my +/- is really low and I basically don't move even when I beat a 2k or lose to 1600

>>526968057
Me neither, but I saw Diaphone playing it.
https://youtu.be/7dUQvS-ZdLM?t=865
The game also has infinites that only work online (delay-based btw) but I must admit I admire the determination of the arena fighter crowd to build a competitive scene around utter kusoge.

>>526968354
oh that
that's just the confidence rating
it means your true rating is within that many points of the displayed rating
it will go down as the system gets more confident (you win games you're expected to win and lose games you're expected to lose) and go up as the system gets less confident (the opposite)

>>526968775
>10 years from now someone will make "People played Bleach Rebirth of Souls Competitively for Money"

>>526967282
can't be fuzzy jump, he always teched the throw

>>526969226
Delay tech, then. Did you ever shimmy him?

>>526969226
probably delay teching then
just pull up a replay and check his input history

>>526968775
looks pretty
gameplay looks like trash though

>>526969725
Yeah, I had the same reaction. I really like Bleach's character designs so it'd be awesome if this game didn't suck but it looks like densetsu no kusoge to me.

>>526967801
>5-10 second combo to wall splat
>3-8 second super to wall break
>3-5 second wall break and stage transition
Yeah I can see what you mean. It's like the anon complaining about sitting through long uni combos with nothing to do, but in strive you do button button special still waiting just as long without nearly as much flair.

>>526969292
>>526969725
Once or twice, but he didn't bite, but shimmies on Strive are wack so maybe it was just too obvious. And both times I remember messing up a strike I got thrown.
Mostly wondering if it's some OS because even if my timing was consistently off and he knew that, I can't imagine why you'd specifically tech over jumping or backdashing, but I'll check the replays next time.

>>526971154
If you're really suspicious I'd check the replay. If he was using a bot it will be obvious because he'll be inputting tech after you input grab every single time, and never inputting it if you didn't go for grab.

>>526964005
ArcSys having culture war grifters is a mark of how successful they’ve gotten

>>526965470

>>526971154
delay tech is easy
just check if he's got a late throw input every time regardless of if you throw him or not

>>526968775
>infinites that only work online
retard here, how does that work?
is there some sort of mash to tech mechanic that doesn't work because delay based netcode?

>>526977479
i legit don't know, but it may be some kind of shitty lag compensation thing
there is also a bug where byakuya's bankai (which you apparently NEED to land several times to win) drops 100% of the time on certain characters but only online and only on specific stages
https://youtu.be/7dUQvS-ZdLM?t=814
i don't know how it's even possible for the stage to affect that

>>526977807
Strive wishes it had this much sovl.

>>526979001
STRIKE BACK

STRIIIIIIIKE BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK

STiIiIiiiiIKe BaAAAAaAaAAAaaAcK

>>526979001
the top two tiers of the tier list are "has infinites" and "has conditional infinites"
aizen can apparently just zone you for the whole match until he unlocks his transformation and then he wins because he does too much damage after transforming
you can't do mixups because there's only one type of strike, throws are reactable (except online because of delay netcode), and there's a delay tech OS that has no counterplay
i'm pretty sure there are blockstring TODs like in DNF Duel but not 100% about that

>>526979537
so this is tbe power of true anime kuso
I kneel

>>526979537
Aizen SHOULD be broken. It's only right that he'd be boss character tier.

they never explained why aizen was so overpowered since the beginning right?

>>526980436
i believe the top 2 characters are actually nell and halibell
aizen just has a particularly degen gameplay loop

now that the dust has settled, can we talk about how daisuke ruined his legacy by retconning bridget?

>>526980983
who the fuck is bridget?

>guilty gear is when a dude doesn't cut his dick off

>>526980983
get a hobby, like movies, i'm watching donnie darko rn

>>526981034
Does *anyone* even draw Bridget with an axe wound instead of a dick?

>>526981548
nope, gooners love the "gock" meme

>>526981615
thats somehow worse than calling it a clitty

>>526981548
no, why would they? that's not the fetish

>>526981963
What even is the fetish at this point? Is it gooners convincing themselves its straight because Bridget is a """girl"""?

>>526982075
always has been

>>526982075
it's "girls" with cocks
that's the fetish

>>526982187
But isn't that futanari?

>>526982364
No, futanari means they have both and usually no balls.

>>526967281
>doubt the normie audience could tell the difference
If strive was like p4a it would've been a complete fucking failure on the level of dnf duel. I'd say on the level of bbtag too but that game actually succeeded and became one of the best selling blazblue games due to how many subhuman RWBY fans exist and bought the game in droves since that was the 1st time they were in a game with decent sprites.

>>526982749
>due to how many subhuman RWBY fans exist and bought the game in droves since that was the 1st time they were in a game with decent sprites
RWBY fans are so interesting. I know there's a whole meme with tumblr types of only engaging with the fanworks but for RWBY I feel like almost everyone hates the show and *only* like fanfics and porn from it.

>>526983653
There's a certain charm for the seasons before Monty's death mainly due to the fight choreography. Most things after have been a disaster.

do fight sticks not have notches? how do you do motions with a stick without any notches?

>challenge floor 9 johnny
>beat him effortlessly
>he doesn't rematch
>says "fuck you" in lobby and ragequits
I play dizzy btw

>>526984542
Since it's a digital input, you don't really need notches. You're either activating a switch or you're not.
Do keep in mind it will take a while to get used to stick. When I switched it took me about a month before I was really genuinely comfortable with it. Absolutely worth it though, doesn't give me hand pain like pad does and it's way more fun to use.

Do I actually have to respect Amorphous as a pseudo-reversal and not try to throw projectiles at Zato from fullscreen?

>>526984790
what are you doing in floor 9 anon

>>526986824
I play Dizzy...

>>526986908
you want a boost lil bro

>>526987173
Playing in Celestial will not help me improve.

>>526984959
i was just looking at some because my controller broke. which one do you have? i'm thinking of getting one.

>>526987253

>>526987330
Qanba Obsidian, all stock parts except that I upgraded the spring to a heavier one because the stock spring makes playing Tekken almost impossible (I don't play Tekken anymore but a heavier spring feels better anyway).

>>526987173
>stranding a floor 9 in celestial
>when theres 2/3rds of the month left
devilish
>>526987253
I'd offer to run some sets to see if I can give you some advice but dizzy is a meme character and fundamentals don't even apply to her

>>526987330
any stick with sanwa parts I recommend

i swear to god i'm gonna rape everyone in my scene into submission even if it means sacrificing everything else in life. They will all fear and praise my superior skills

>>526987828
giorager...

>>526987649
At this point I think most of my issues are things I'm kind of aware of and just not working hard enough on. I have a bad habit of autopiloting into bad but easy combos early on and then it takes me forever to relearn the muscle memory for good combos; in the case of Dizzy I was doing 2K>2D>ice spike which is a useless OTG that gives no oki. I switched over to 2K>2D>fish which is what she actually wants to do for oki. I guess I should practice her left/right mix now but I'm not really sure how reliable it is.
Progress is slow but I am making progress. My original plateau was high floor 10 with Giovanna but that was years ago and I've been super rusty.

>>526984542
you can change the gate to a octo gate which will have notches if you want. Square is the standard tho and you just need to have a feel for the cardinals. Octo gates get a little weird because the areas are uneven which I find makes it harder to hit diagonals properly if you go fast.

>>526988068
>issues related to consistency and confusion
normal growing pains as you learn
it's hard to give advice for dizzy other than "memorize all your shit well". we do have a decent dizzy around who might be able to give you advice
ganbatte

>>526987330
I like Seimitsu buttons which are heavier than Sanwa.
Get some Hori buttons if you're a twigboy with a penchant for featherweight touches and limp wristed handshakes.
Get a higher tension lever too

>>526988068
Actually I just remembered I have a serious problem with hit confirming 2K>2D. On block I want to do chestnut until my opponent has demonstrated they won't let me steal another turn, but on hit I want fish. If they get hit by the 2D after blocking 2K then I end up doing chestnut and giving up oki. Not sure the best solution here, I've never been good at confirming single hits.
Should I just stagger the special cancel? That would make it way easier to contest the chestnut.

>>526989090
clean your reactions bucko
hit the lab. practice is the only solution

>>526989354
Is it really possible to react consistently to single-hit confirms? I've always been reliant on 2-3 hit confirms.

>>526988536
nta but do you recommend any grease/lube for sticks?
also damn now I want to try a higher tension lever too

>>526989392
you can improve your reactions a lot by refining your expectations
it's like driving. it's commonly said that you should always be driving 2 seconds ahead. try to play with the same mentality, especially on offense
if you're anticipating one of two outcomes to an interaction (hitting their block or hitting them) then it's easier to react to either one
familiarity and understanding will refine your expectations. clear expectations will clean up your reactions. set up your training dummy and practice your hit confirms

>>526989984
What happens is that I expect them to block both hits but they end up just blocking the first one for whatever reason. By the time I notice I've already input chestnut.
I imagine this happens a lot less with better players who know they can't jump out of that string, but I'm sure there are still edge cases where it can come up.
So the issue is specifically reacting to the opposite of what I expect.

>>526989930
You can get a heavier spring from Focus Attack. Don't buy a whole new lever.

>>526982749
we are talking about purely by gameplay, non of these other outside factors. Out of all the baby mode games they released, you honestly think strive is the best?

>>526990275
then the issue is probably that your expectations are too hard focused on one case. same reason ky gets away with fullscreen run up throw. being focused on one spread of actions will make you so vulnerable to others as to seem retarded to
people might be poorly fuzzying a 2K tic throw but at floor 9 I seriously doubt it. weaker players do a lot of flailing because they're learning and are uncomfortable
it's a lot harder to unstick your brain from a habit than it is to learn something new. push hard in the other direction of expecting that they'll get hit while generally practicing your hit confirms
watching gameplay might help if you know your character well enough. if you can generally expect what the dizzy player is going to do understand the options available to them, you can practice those expectations/reactions without the pressure of piloting your character and performing well

>>526990968
>a 2K tic throw
thank you for telling me this is even an option, it literally changes everything
I will now play Dizzy like Giovanna

>>526966816
it should have been persona 5 arena bros... the marvelGAWDS defeated us...

>>526991183
>>526990968
Also I will take your advice about trying to expect the opposite of what's actually likely. I can see that being big for reactions and situational awareness.

>>526980436
Agreed. Sol should have guard crush on every special and normal.

>>526961343
It’s funny that button spam is now the issue with a lack of motions than the execution

>>526961343
they love the bbtag because it's fun

>>526961343
>BBTAG did a lot of damage for tag fighters
no it didn't. The defining feature wasn't copied and it didn't invent active tag which is what I see people complaining about. BBTAG doesn't have lasting influence the way dbfz does, and if you want to say that anything did damage to tag fighters it was mvci.

>>526994362
>The defining feature
What was that? I didn't play it.

>>526994548
call in assist, then using active tag you can keep them on screen for more than one attack and you can freely switch control between your two characters

>>526990487
oh ok thanks

>>526994808
Oh yeah, I remember that.
Is it mega-kusoge?

>>526994876
yea they added adachi who has a full screen beam assist that is the equivalent of a super kamehaha but it doesn't use meter

what does YRC do?

>>526994548
basically >>526994808
after your assist is called, you can pop cross combo mode which makes them stay on and you can have them do multiple assist attacks. This allows anyone to become a puppet character at any moment, with your second character being the puppet. Allows both combos and blockstrings.

>>526994876
it is very chaotic but it is not the same kind of game as HnK or SBX.

>>526994808
That otg into wallsplat into blackhawk stinger looks hilarious actually

>>526994808
I will never forgive jiyuna for killing this game

Oh my god I'm so fucking happy. I'm glad you guys told me how much quick match sucks. I went to floor 10 to fight people and I actually got to see what the fucking rest of the roster does. People actually do shit on defense now. I'm getting stuffed by people mashing on block though because I don't really know what my block strings are. Every stray hit they land on me gets converted into huge combos but I'm just glad I get to like, actually fucking see guilty gear be played.

>>526995857
arcsys stopping patching it after a very short amount of time compared to their other games, I would blame them more than influencer. The last patch did not leave it in a great state, either.

>>526995086
It lets you steal your opponent's turn while you're in block stun.

>>526996120
...how? what is the frame advantage? I feel like no matter what button I press I get grabbed

>>526995857
but jiyuna is a bbfag why would he let bbtag fail

>>526996227
you're +10
how are you getting grabbed

>>526996364
who is +10? I mean I'll be on offense, get YRC'd then get thrown.

>>526996437
if you get hit with a YRC you're -10
in which case yeah, you're vulnerable to being thrown
hold up back

>>526996520
When you say hold, you mean I don't have to time it?

>>526996728
Correct
If you are holding up while on the ground you will jump

>>526995857
Mori unironically killed this game in the wound for that godawful mistranslation that you have to unlock all the base roster for an additional $20 when in reality it was $40 for a few character and $60 for everything. It was poorly conveyed because Jap streams are shit

and now mori is dead

*scamming chinks

Can you still RC after Blood Nago's Super? It didn't work for me but idk if it's because you can't or because the connection was super mega crunchy and I might have gotten hit before my screen even registered he was using it

is "guy who wishes tokon was more like the bbtag" a good grifter shtick? I want to get in on the fgc influencer money.

is "guy who rants about all the sexual characteristics of every female character in tokon" a good grifter shtick? I want to get in on the fgc influencer money.

>>526999634
no

>>526999852
yes

Stupid question, but do you guys always buffer combos? Like do you always input K -> 2D -> Special every time you kick? or do you react to the situation

>>527001058
might depend on the character whether you autopilot 5K 2D but you almost definitely have time to confirm special depending on whether you hit.

>>527001058
I mash out my blockstring slightly too fast and then start pressing the inputs for my hit confirm combo just after to nest my confirms in alternate realities

>>527002018
anything you get from mashing 5 or 2P? Its been effective at stopping certain things but I often lose the followup.

>>527001058
be like jasonriot and buffer 20+ options that someone will think you are botting

>>527001058
Sometimes I hitconfirm sometimes I do the combo whether it hits or not cause I have meter

>>527001058
I do 5K 2H ground viper and RC it if they blocked

>>526982749
>If strive was like p4a it would've been a complete fucking failure on the level of dnf duel.
How is this a real thing that a person is capable of thinking? What's your thought process behind it?

Who's the closest character to Dante from UMVC3 in +R? I guess Johnny is Vergil

>>527005683
Sol and Ky are like, direct Dante and Vergil analogues, cept Ky isn't evil.

>>527005810
I mean gameplay wise. Ky is too simple to be Vergil

do we know when the ranked thing comes out yet

>>527013960
Just that it's this summer. In the meantime you'll probably just have to live with playing on 10 or in the park.

>>527011961
she’s a reverse trap

What should I know if I'm a returning player that stopped playing around the start of season 2? I remember that apparently they were adding new specials and stuff like that... But I have no idea about any of it, or what the wild assault thing is even about

>>527017647
I don't know but now you know that I love bedman

>>527017978
Well, good for you anon! I never really jived with the playstyle, and my brain for some reason can't keep track of what's going on when I'm fighting him, he's very visually confusing imo

>>527017647
some characters got new moves and properties changed
Ram has essentially been reworked into a different character twice now
Characters got a new Dust move which is just 236D and is called "wild assault" and it's just a flavored universal neutch skip at the cost of 50% burst that is white slime for some, red slime for others or yellow slime

>>527015396
does this explain her lack of sex appeal

>>527019624
WWA is the only one should ever use to skip neutral
characters with long buttons can turn a max range blocked f.s into pressure but that's not that common
it's pretty much combo filler or a way to close out rounds with meme mix

>>527020016
I think they could've solved that by simply adding some wild-assault like moves to the cast instead of adding it as an universal gimmick
It feels a bit out of place when you already have RC and Burst
Although the game is very heavily favored towards defense in S1/2, I am not sure if this was the way to go and the addition of it felt more like a kneejerk reaction to Happy Chaos

>>527019624
Okay thanks! So it seems like the core of the game hasn't changed that much, guess I'll just have to check out the new moves so that I'll know what to expect
So the wild assault thing is either a combo filler or a neutral skip depending on what character you're playing, right? And what about the deflect shield? Is that just an anti-mixup button?

>>527013960
what's cringe about it? Ranked won't change anything if majority of the playerbase is higher than floor 8

>>527022309
pressure escape since it has huge pushback
if your opponent is asleep at the wheel you can whiff punish them when your deflect shield pushes them out. happens pretty often

>>527022309
yeah pretty much, high low left right, it also has a shitload of pushback. It's good against safejumps where yrc was easily baitable. They can bait this one too but not with cancels, they have to stop their pressure wait for it to come out and the reflect effect to end and punish the recovery

>>527022552
>>527022648
Yeah, that makes sense, thanks anons! I used to play Bridget the most, which doesn't bode really well for me since I was always very bad at this game and I only won games by scamming strike/throw mixups... And I feel like the playerbase has gotten waaay better then when I played

>>527022428
I could make a whole post breaking down what's wrong with what you said but it would all go over your head, you're retarded.

I FUCKING MADE IT BROS!!!!!!!!!

fullscreen burst might've eliminated burst safe combos, but it also got rid of burst UNSAFE combos, which was something cool, something to be aware of. Yet another piece of nuance we lost thanks to happy faggot and his merry men

jannies he's back and doing that thing where he replies to himself like 20 times again. Clean it up will ya?

>>527013960
I'm perma floor 6 and I exclusively play on floor 10 because seriously, it doesn't even feel like I'm playing the game at that floor. People have 1 pet combo they're trying to land, nobody does anything on block, no one blocks on wakeup, its monotonous as shit.

if there are ten people worldwide in floor 8 there will still be ten people worldwide in plastic ranked, how would that make it easier for you to find games?

bruh I wanna do those shmancy wall to wall air combos

wtf is going on in here

>>526965380
Wallbreaks insn't the problem.
The problem is positive bonus + hkd after wallbreaks is too fucking easy and strong on most characters.
HC and Ino in particular can simply run their offense ad eternam on you and will always get super wallbreak by building shit ton of meter thanks to positive bonus.
This is a thing I've been wondering about for the last 4 years, did ArcSys expected wallbreaks to be this much at the core of strive or did they expected it to be a specific gameplan choice.
Some characters like Ino, Ram orTestament could gain consequent advantage from not breaking the wall as they rely on constant strike/throw high/low and +frames pressure but the advantage given by breaking the wall with a super is so big in comparison not one of them actually would get a better situation from reseting pressure in the corner.
Ram gets both her sword back.
Ino gets meter to convert of anything.
Testament gets stain of nostrovia.
The problem isn't wallbreak, the problem is you HAVE TO break the wall in any possible scenario.

notable problem character ino

notable problem character happy chaos

I just hope the tokon wall damage values are lower. I want funny juggles.

The coolest character with the best theme and most fun gimmick SUCKS FUCKING ASS

finna button

I'm coming back after like 2 years, is everybody just waaay better now then they were before, or was that just a fucked up lobby?

>>527051489
just git gud

What's a character that I should learn if I really like Bridget mostly for how freeform and simple the combos are, and because I like all the mixups you can do with [insert pronoun that won't piss you off]?

>>527052170
Everyone is better
I took a year off and came back and everyone was on another level
Floor 7 is the old floor 9

>>527051489
I don’t think HC is that bad despite the nerfs

Fighting Unika makes my blood boil like no other character for some reason

>>526966846
Was gonna lab the timing to make sure I'm hitting strike and throw on the same frame, just to be sure, guard crush only removes the throw protection frames, right? I still have to wait until they're actionable?

>>527056180
Her projectile spam will be nerfed
Her DP feels annoying to get hit by but if you see them using it a lot it’s incredibly easy to punish. I hate to make the analogy since it’s so commonly used but Unika feels like a Dark Souls boss in that they have these insanely intimidating moves and are seemingly invincible at first but honestly things aren’t so bad once you prioritize positioning and defense and knowing when to punish their big wiffs
Unikas love to fish for that 5HS

>>527032963
What

>>527059372
The only semi-practical punishes are against Axl 5P/6K, and Sol NRV. You can't use it in matchups like Baiken Johnny Ram or May or any other char you think because they either recover too fast, or have too specialized of hitbox to get caught in the nullification. The other change to the move also makes going for it less of a requirement for punishes, but I wouldn't exactly call it a buff.

>>527064420
Jesse what the fuck are you talking about

finna call saul

I know Gobou is an extremely beloved player and innovator, he basically invented how Asuka is still played today but his Venom looks absolutely terrible, it almost feels like Strive's Venom doesn't have enough depth in comparison to Asuka or Zato for Gobou to shine with him.
It's definitely a divded take considering he also plays Goldlewis, the biggest autopilot character in the game with elphelt but his CEO performance was laughable, all of the sets he won was by pure fg mechanics and reads and the very little Venom we see is barebones and unremarkable, spamming stinger aim and doing 2 basic ball setups.
It's no wonder he lost to leffen, the character is bad but he's also not made to play him.

>>527068459
Didn't he switch to Unika?

I guess now isn’t the best time to say my scrub ass finally made it to floor 9?

>goldlewis
>autopilot
and yet Gobou can’t win with him
curious

>>527069106
>and yet Gobou can’t win with him
Gobou won with Goldlewis back in 2021 brother.
He just rather play ABA and Asuka in the last 2 years.

how do you learn combos

Are people acting like Strive DIDNT bring rollback into the mainstream consciousness and create an industry standard for fighting games to always have rollback netcode?
Thats just hater shit dude, +R had rollback forever and it didnt achieve that, and SFV nearly killed the idea of it

>>527069970
You didn’t see his arcrevo run?

>>527070139
I wouldn't say Strive specifically did it, Arcsys overall implemented rollback into a lot of classic games at the time and the positive reception that got globally was a big deal during the Covid era

isn't this game completely dead? how the fuck is there a general?

>>527070139
It motivated snk and frenchbread to get off their ass but marvel 4 already had rollback, no?. Miyauchi was just reading the room

>>527071260
Who says it's dead

>>527057698
Bullshit man, her moves are scary because they're extremely good. That 5H is more offensive than Mays, with better midscreen payout. Even if you nerfed laser she'd still be top 5 easily.

>>527071260
It’s the third most popular fighting game

Anyone else noticed a slide towards high tiers in this game now? I'm in a park thats overwhelmingly Johnny, Sin and Slayers. There's even two Leos a GL and Ram. Not helped by the newest character Unika being top tier too.
The only mid/low tiers I see these days are stubborn Ky players, Dizzy and Venoms clinging to hope, and the usual Bridget playing retards

>>527072337
I think Bridget is low tier.

S4 Slayer is mid tier. Learn the MU

>>527072568
He's an extremely obnoxious mid tier. Low tier is reserved for straight garbage characters like Zato and Dizzy

>>527070139
+R did a lot of incredible things that devs have failed to learn from. Insane that list lobbies aren’t standard especially for anime games. Insane that replay takeover isn’t almost universal.

>>527072724
I'd don't know. Being a zoner that is forced to approach really sucks. And all of his approach options are telegraphed, aside from a discount I-no high low mix.

>>527069970
>Gobou won with Goldlewis back in 2021 brother.
wasn't that the strongest version of the character even though everyone mistakenly thought he was bottom 1 at the time

>>527070656
Strive was originally not going to have rollback but people made a fuss about it and they caved. And since then it's been industry standard.

>>527073498
He's a corner vortex character with good mid range play. A mid-tier Ram. Where did you get zoner from? His fullscreen is practically nonexistent

@Daisuke @Katano
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6sjKP15vbk

>>527064562
A move with such an intriguing property would be hailed in any game with more recovery, but since it's this game, it remains niche!

>>527075683
Haven't watched this video but assuming its the same as his original idea then it's a amazing idea like everything else he talks about. People only hate him because he's not a incel.

>>527057698
What do you mean when you say projectile spam? Her laser special is fairly slow and hella punishable so it probably won't get nerfed. Her 5H follow up that leaves her like +12 might be on the chopper though.

>>527071810
haven't measured it, but Unika's 5H feels smaller and easier to whiff punish

Name one (realistic) buff you'd give your main and in return also name two nerfs.

>>527079857
He’s so messed up right now I couldn’t think of another single buff to do. Making 214S lower and low profile frame 1 in addition to hitting low might be a good alternative.

>>527077301
if dizzy got nerfed she would be unplayable

>>526965037
based, Arcsys should never be forgiven

>>527070121
No seriously. I'm starting to think I have a mental problem. I'm on floor 5 and I everyone I fight has meter burn combos that wall carry like crazy. my ass cannot fucking learn a single BnB. No matter how many hours i practice I just can't fuckning remember a single RC combo. I feel like i have to ask the obvious question, is practice enough to learn? Am I supposed to be doing drills? Do I just drop my neutral and mindless practice doing the combo in a real match to set it in stone? I feel like a fucking idiot

>>526965037
someone needs to explain to them that this shit isn't politicized in japan and the japanese fandom just continues calling bridget an otokonoko because no one there cares

>>527084687
>I'm nearly blind but she looks like a girl.
He has a flat chest and they even gave him a man's voice in the dub.
>Bridget on the other hand is a man and it shows.
What? Bridget is literally the classic "draw a girl, call it a boy" meme

>>527084564
cero considers testament and bridget to be girls. which is why you can't look under their skirts in photo mode anymore.

>>527084776
Bridget has a bigger cock than her so your point does not stand. Sorry.

>>527084908
well yeah, testament's cock was removed in the war

>>527084687
His new outfit is less manly and the overall artstyle change contributes to it but he has the same body type he always did and if you look at both designs he's obviously a man in both, just rock physique and he used to have moves that showed what daisuke was going for better. Pretty sure the they/them thing was added in by lolcalizers. Even if it wasn't he's still a man.

Is there a way to show stick controls instead of an XB controller layout.

>>527085197
>Pretty sure the they/them thing was added in by lolcalizers.
It was. If it was Daisuke's idea he wouldn't have done the he/she thing in the theme.

/ggg/ people on reddit awaiting tokon says that arc don't take western criticism well which is why it took a long time for them to implement rollback, but I think arc doesn't need the western influence, western degenerates don't play good as good as the japanese and therefore dont have any worthy opinions to consider

>>527027509
Grats brah

>>527027509
I'm honestly surprised that the game is alive enough at this point that there is a distinction between the floors at floor 10 and below

What are they gonna do when Strive 2 comes out featuring all the Guilty Gear Kids and older version of existing characters in terms of Bridget? Will we finally get the ikemen Bridget that Jam always dreamed of?

what is his endgame?

Can you do TLDR on these and how should they be used? I'm really a new so I'd appreciate it.

>>527085573
reddit does indeed have insider info about how arcsystemworks operates

>>527086502
i thought this was a butthurt tranny until i saw the username

>>527086565
use RC to convert almost any touch into a full combo
it can also be used as a combo extension
and it can be used to cancel a whiff so you don't eat shit, in some cases turning a whiff into advantage state if your opponent is near
and it can be used while in block stun to reverse the situation and put you on offense

FD is just used to push the enemy back when they are bullying you in the corner

>>527077301
>buff

testament shouldn't be getting any fucking nerfs but if they did it would be to reduce frame advantage on charge h grave reaper.

>>527085573
Arc is aware theyre just very stubborn because they have a strong vision of what they want their games to be, for better or worse. In matters of QoL and online stability, ts not like they actively dismiss what people want, they do implement feedback eventually just that it takes 5ever either due to lack of manpoe
Wer or retarded spaghetti code theyve decided to bury themselves in.

For matters of balance and gameplay changes though, thats where things get ugly. Remember when Katano mentioned they only get feedback from people who actually play the game extensively? This game is almost 5 years old and people have been BEGGING for actual damage reduction across the board or changes to wall interaction, or faster airdash and real gatlings and theyre silent on that. Its not even hard to do, there have been a gorillion mods already who attempted to "fix" Strive but they just dont want to do it because they think this is what Strive should be. Same goes with character balance. Theyre never going to nerf Leo because no one in Japan does well with Leo except for 1 dude who refuses to do his gimmick, they all view balance with a JP lens.

>>527086841
important to remember that in the arcade days japanese devs would make certain characters deliberately overpowered
the whole country views game balance very differently than we do
in some ways their perspective is healthier but they will also just ignore things like leo

>>527086728
Thanks!
What about these?

>>527087206
burst is how you interrupt your opponent's combo, you should seriously play the tutorial if you haven't already because i thought it was covered there
you can also use it in neutral to get positive bonus but this is USUALLY not worth it

that last thing is literally only used in 3v3 mode which nobody plays so don't worry about it

>>527087206
play the tutorial lil bro

>>527087356
cheers :)

>>527087517
no problem anon but please play the tutorial also my advice is do NOT try to learn every single system mechanic at once, you should definitely know WHAT they do but you shouldn't be beating yourself up if you're not incorporating them all into your play from day 1
my approach to this sort of thing is to start with the basics (your character's normals and the easy-to-use specials) and then incorporate more specialized tools over time
the only exception to this is burst, you should definitely know how burst works and what it does, it will save your ass

>>527086841
>>527087028
isn't their mantra that x character must be fun above all else? Why else would we get abominations like +R zappa, xrd elphelt/raven, bb arakune, or strive HC? Restricting them or "balancing" them would make them less "fun". I mean I get also making the game more aggression-focused instead of a clean balance, otherwise we get 2hko time outs on every match

>>527070121
>>527080970
>>527082971
pls halp

>>527087715

A world where strive is never mocked again

>>527087206
oh also i wanted to say that i personally do not think you should use the burst macro and if you are on stick/hitbox you shouldn't use RC macro either but on pad i could see it being useful

Are there stick controllers with more than 8 big buttons without losing the stick?

>>527086502
>>527087921
its already too late, some people who've mocked gg and its players have quietly sunk into the shadows of the community and if they're not retarded, will never be punished for their crimes

>>527088134
i think there's some kind of tournament rule against those for some reason
you could probably build one yourself if you know how to solder as sanwa buttons only cost like $3 each

How much of Elphelts pressure is fake, i need to know

>>527088283
I see. Makes sense.
Nah, I've been just wondering since I come from an MMO background and I heckin' LOVE extra buttons.

>>527088134
hitbox crossup

Is this a fair layout for a noob? Obviously binds are personal but do you think something out right retarded with this?

>>527088874
you could get a >>527089251 but AFAIK the extra buttons on that are just for the dpad
remember that you're limited to console controller inputs for most games

>>527088650
If you jump throw after blocking 2H you're 75% sure to catch her fire grenade because most elphelt players are so fucking retarded they think it's harder to catch the crossup than the braindead rekka.
Rekka is a scam because despite top players especially niggertashi saying it's all fake and you can react actually the real counterplay is avoid getting in the rekka to begin with because elphelt has barely anything else.
Always block high because you can fuzzy the high then the low in the right sequence, me personally I always block low and mash 2p like a tard and it works most of the time. If you're getting hit in trying to mash your jabs better stop trying and wait for it to stop.
Elphelt is like JR ABA, people tell you it's possible to defend against them but actually just running away is the right solution.

>>527089320
*binds are a personal thing but do you think there is something outright retarded with this setup?
Sorry I'm tired. It's 1:30AM and have work in the morning.

>>527089320
Actual arcade cabinets use
P S H
K R D
I use that with RC on top right and dash on bottom left. FD can be on R, but I don't use an FD macro.

>>527089320
i prefer
K S HS FD
P dash D
idk what i put on the last one because i never use it
but your layout should work fine, just make sure it's comfortable

>>527089320
I wouldn't recommend RC being on a button you need to use your pinky to press. Change it with FD and just use the two buttons whenever you want to FD

>>527090031
are you trying to make him get counterhit???
also RC macro is completely useless on stick, just press three buttons bro

>>527090198
You people act like that FD bug is super common but in the 4 years of playing this game I've had it happen to me like 5 times. Maybe half the time it's happening to you it's because you're fucking up the timing with your two fingers.

Why is Bedman allowed to just mash like that
Forever
In all situations

>>527090407
it's more common than fucking up RC input which literally never happens
do you use burst macro too? lmao

Pressing 3 buttons to do one thing is retarded on the face of it
Stick players are tards

>>527090523
When did I say I even use the RC macro? I was just telling him that if he is going to use the macro, having it on a button where you'd have to use your pinky to access it isn't smart.

>>527090407
I think it depends on your controller
On sanwa buttons I got the FD bug all the time, and I wouldn't really call it a bug, its just something that naturally happens because of the way the game handles inputs
It's just getting kara-fd instead of FD

>>527090680
its hype

>>527070139
that was fighterz lil bro

>>527090713
but he'll be FDing more than he RC's and FD input actually bugs out sometimes

>>527090751
yeah true it's technically not a bug it's a buffer issue i believe

>>527090953
FighterZ fucking died because it didnt get rollback in time

>>527091014
A valiant sacrifice to show its necessity

>>527090953
didn't DBFZ just get rollback a year ago

>>527090975
The reason I say that is because RC is used as a combo tool meaning there's at least some degree of timing and execution required with using the RC macro which is something that you don't want to rely on your pinky to do. With the FD you only really need to hold it down on defense, there's no execution required with it so it's safer to put on a that button.

>>527091261
i guess that makes sense but i still think he shouldn't use RC macro at all
it's an extra button that's completely unnecessary, only reason to use it is if you're on pad

How do I perform this input?

>>527092914
forward, down, down-forward
623
also known as DP input because it's traditionally used for "dragon punch" moves (starship is a dragon punch move)
occasionally called Z-input

>>527093146
Thanks, I replicated it now.

>>527084371
I didn’t want Bridget back but I did want the character to become a giant big body buff pixie man if he did

how can I call people faggots in lobbies?

Schizos going through and taking the time to flag 1000+ video of his is next level mental illness.

>>527096768
What the fuck are you talking about

>>527096867
that's clayton, he is mentally ill and also shills his own videos here and talks in the third person
he has been doing this for at least 7 years as my friends says he used to do the exact same thing in the DBFZ general when that game was recent
he claims to hate strive but he can't keep our name out of his mouth
he also denies he is samefagging even though it's very obvious

Why is there no chat in this dogshit game? I wanna call people faggots after losing. Such a sissy game

>>527096982
Someone told me about him a couple threads ago but I was more asking about the context regarding "flag[ging] 1000+ videos"

>>527097174
there literally is but if you rage i will screenshot it and humiliate you here

>>527097286
how do I typo to these tryhards at lowest ranks? Literally imagine being such faggot that you pray on new players.

>>527097392
smurfing is impossible in this game so if you're getting owned on floor 3 or whatever it's because there are other shitters who are slightly better than trying to climb higher
press either R1 or L1 to open chat i forget which one, you can only do it in the lobby

>>527097590
works, thanks. If I lose the first round I just go AFK

>>527098117
I usually feel the urge to call people slurs like the Green Goblin when there’s a chat but I have never once been compelled to use Strive’s

>>527098117
>If I lose the first round I just go AFK
hey anon just so you know nobody forced you to admit this you don't have to humiliate yourself in the thread like that

what a HORRIBLE game. Cannot get an input out before some faggot spams their 20 step combo.

>>527098117
Based

>>527098556
Why should I care? Fighting games are so niche it does not matter. MMOS game better PVP than this crap

>>527098590
actual skill issue
stop mashing

>>527098590
Friendly advice cause I’ve seen this at least 3 times before but I think you should stop playing now, if you don’t enjoy the shitter floors you will be miserable at the higher ones. just have fun jacking off to testament porn or something

>>527098731
MMO games have better PVP*
I'm going to sleep.

>>527098731
i don't think this game is for you bro i think maybe you wasted your money on that fight stick see if you can get a refund

>>527098590
>making this post about the infamous button button special game
bro...

>>527098817
I just want my inputs to go through,. Why is it so hard to cast spells with directional keys. I literally can do it 25% of the time on command. Then during a match I attempt to do it, and get wrecked. Makes me wanna smash something. If the game could register the action I wish to perform, then it would be easy.

so this is the power of jerking off to testament porn...

>>527099140
I do not even know what this means nigga

>>527099126
this is 100% guaranteed to be a skill issue
it takes time to build muscle memory
if you are raging every time you fuck something up you will never improve
fighting games are about the grind

>>527099126
this is something you just have to grind, I would recommend doing all of bridget’s moves at least 10 times in a row consistently in training mode

>>527099594
facing both sides too since you need to train your muscles for both sides

>>527099289
Yeah but it feels like it works for everyone else right away. Am I just retarded or what. In other games it is easy for me to pick things up and get to learning right way. In fighting games I feel like I have a disability.
Currently there are no great competitive games to get into. Fighting games are not for me, clearly, MR has EOMM issue, WoW is dead. Time to end it all soon.

>>527099702
fighting games are hard, even just switching between multiple games causes issue with muscle memory. one of my sf friends tried strive recently and it was much harder than I thought to get him to understand the system mechanics and MU knowledge. it’s up to you to decide if you want to make the investment. just don’t make yourself and others miserable playing a game you don’t have fun with

>>527099702
>Yeah but it feels like it works for everyone else right away.
how do you know that it's "working for everyone else right away"

>>527099702
>Yeah but it feels like it works for everyone else right away.
everyone else has more practice than you nigga
>Am I just retarded or what.
yeah maybe a little
>In other games it is easy for me to pick things up and get to learning right way. In fighting games I feel like I have a disability.
you have no FG muscle memory and it takes time to build that
keep at it and you can do it
but if you can't handle losses this is NOT the genre for you
it's brutal on your ego, you have to be willing to lose and see past those losses to the victory in the distance
be like goku, nigga

>>527099914
I understand and thanks for dealing with me but It cannot be normal to struggle with basic attacks that require multiple inputs. It's like I would be unable to do a rotation in WoW. I don't know if my brain is just uncompatibile with the genre but I have never seen it like that wiht other games. My aim is dogshit right but at least I can reliably target people. In racing games, I can follow the track. In RPGs, I can pickup how to build my character. You get my drift. But in fighting games? Once I learn which inputs I need to press to perform character's special attacks, I actually get worse than without knowing them since I want to attempt using them during matches, and ends up doing misinputs 80% of times, or be staggered by my inner eye's plans, instead of reacting to the flow of battle and opponent's actions. Pisses me off so much.
TLDR I'm retarded, old, and euthanize me now.

>>527100569
ok don't let the door hit you on the way out nigga

this is why fighting games are a great genre
they break an ego like no other

>>527096982
People only hate Clayton because he's a chad.
https://youtu.be/X0VuPu9Ru7g

Don't forget the same people that say he is a schizo look like this.
https://youtu.be/bw_gYvmMfQM

>>527100569
this is how my girlfriend feels about trying to move the camera and her character at the same time

>>527100569
>It cannot be normal to struggle with basic attacks that require multiple inputs.
it is, don't worry
it's a very unconventional style of input that you have to do pretty quickly and fairly consistently
imagine if you had never played an FPS before and suddenly you had to circle strafe in doom? for someone who has been playing FPS since elementary school that's totally trivial but i've given controllers to family members who don't play games and they literally can't move both analog sticks at the same time
the most important rule in fighting games is "don't get mad" but #2 is probably that you should just try to be okay with losing, especially when you're trying something new (in your case literally everything you do is new so you will lose a LOT but even really good players will sometimes get dumpstered if they're trying a new character)

I have a frierndly match with a friend from work on friday, and he will 100% think I'm a retarded boomer after he faces me. I should start streaming to show you guys how bad I actually am. I'm telling you, NO ONE has been this shit while starting out, and I do not know how to improve. Euthanise me now.

Why does everyone who hates Clayton fall under the category of fat, ugly, tranny or all of the above? lmfao he's not toxic himself but he sure brings out the worst of the community. Real basement dweller hours.

part of me thinks this is the furry faggot doing some schizo episode
anyone else?
am I the schizo?

>>527100841

>>527100827

Jeez, I really cannot type. Going to sleep now.
Take care all of you, see you around.

>>527100954
There is a non-zero chance this is someone doing a bit
That's not a crazy thing to believe

>>527100954
i don't actually know the furry's IGN but this testarager is named gorth according to >>527098117 so is that the furry's name? i doubt he would buy an alt just for this so it's probably just giorager 2

>>527101118
you know you can just change your rcode right

>>527101232
wouldn't that still bring up your old stuff on puddle.farm? there is no ram player named gorth
there is a 1600 ky who hasn't played since september though

>>527101232
>>527101381
also the furry never talked about WOW before but testesrager talks about it constantly and the furry can't stop talking about his off-topic interests so he would've mentioned it if he was into it

guys how can i accelerate the fgc war even further? There is some escalation but not enough, especially on the side of strive, they are too passive even if i'm trying to reel them up. Should I make a bomb call at evo? Not even american but guess i could find a way to make a call and spook them. Any other ideas?

>>527101507

I'm not a furry or anyone you know. I'm a total noob to fighting games and to this general. Joined like 2 days ago or something, posted only few times. Sorry for shitting up your space, not my intention. It is just hard for me to deal with the reality of how bad I'm in fighting games and getting old. Turning off PC right now since I have work in few hours. BB

>>527101564
>if nobody is showing up at all on the rating update site
nope he is there but only his testament and bridget
he doesn't play ram unlike the furry

>>527101715
i believe you anon you don't match his posting style anyway
you need to chill the FUCK out though we already have one sperg who rages in thread and he does it less than you

>Bloober bandwagoners (who didnt even play BB when it was alive btw) shat on Slash for saying the fact that Strive set the standard of having rollback at launch or having your game fucking die right out of the gate
Funny how BB became the new legacy fighting game for bitter twats. They should be thankful ArcSys gave them rollback to begin with.

>>527098817
Ingrid!!! I hope she can come save strive and granblue too!

>>527102943
xturds... our one legacy is getting stolen...

they really gave dizzy multiple 0-10 matchups

>>527103071
what is she saving those games from

>>527103757
That's just strive in general unless you play top 5

>>527103547
Well yes, if it wasnt obvious already.

>>527103918
no it isn't, none of the other bad characters are even close to dizzy tier and none of the mid tiers have matchups worse than 3-7

>>527104232
>it's only 3-7
lol

lmao

t.top 5 player

>>527103849
Granblue? From the Belials and Ladivas. Strive? From the Bridgets and big bodies.

bb is a fun game to do combo trials in but there's too many lolis to take seriously as a game to play against other people

>>527104353
Belial isn't even relevant to the meta anymore in granblue, they actually shot him

Blazblue is the best but I like it and Guilty Gear. It's different from the others but Strive is still neat to mess around in without putting much effort in. They don't fill the same niches so it was always weird to me how many strive players take it personally when you like blazblue, but I was wondering if that's because of the designs like the lolis or mai and es. Obviously less likely for those types to be here and this is just one schizo having xer meltdown, but the type of person that came in with some parts of strive usually hates those kinds of characters so that may be where it stopped being about the games themselves.

how long until there's twitter discourse about banning blazblue and skullgirls (fillia is underage) from side tournaments and majors
also tekken because lili is 17

holy shit get off twitter, sis

>>527104527
the only time i've seen people who were truly anti-blazblue was back in 2017/18
all the other times it's just gamewar shitposting, or like you said faggot social justice signaling because platinum exists

>>527104705
Been there countless times. Platinum and Rachel live rent free in the minds of freaks.

>>527104792
I try to click not interested on it every time it pops up on twitter but I see the same reactions to blazblue fans as I see for blue archive fans where certain types go insane with the idea of someone liking a game with lolis, even if they don't directly state that's the reason. I want Delilah in the next guilty gear game no matter how she plays.

>>527104315
Faust vs Anji/Ram/Chaos/Leo is 2-8

>>527105235
what archetype even is ingrid

>>527104879
Rachel is like ten levels higher as a character design above Plat

>>527105462
rachel is actually a well-designed character with general appeal whereas platinum is pedobait but schizos will assume rachel is also pedobait just because she's a loli
lolicons do this too btw, they can't imagine someone liking rachel without wanting to fuck her

>>527105364
Idk I just think she’s funny, she has a teleport fake tatsu and a fireball so she looks like athena

>>527105641
>she has a teleport
in street fighter? that's gonna be so annoying

>>527105462
Rachel's my favorite girl in it but Platinum and Nu are close. I genuinely like both as characters and not just because they're lolis even if they are hot.

>>527070139
+R did NOT have rollback forever. +R rollback was released in 2020, in the middle of strive's dev cycle and the feedback from the japanese players who finally played a game with working rollback was so strong that arcsys implemented it into strive.

>>527106402
Ackshually didnt Strive announced rollback first THEN +R said they were going to implement rollback? I remember hopping on that around december 2020. People were even saying theres no more need to play Strive now that a "real Guilty Gear" game has rollback

>>527101232
how?

>>527106942
people were working on rollback for +r for awhile, they didn't just get the idea from the strive announcement and have the a working release a few months later. Strive's first beta didn't even have rollback which shows how much of an afterthought it was.

>>527097263

it did not get rollback until 2020. The actual "Forever" rollback games are like, skullgirls, KI, and fightcade(GGPO back then) as a whole.

>no new "Strive is DYING" post since March
he's losing his touch man

>>526953991
It's more like the perfect chance to work out those matchups.

Melty is an anime game but I wouldn't even rly call melty movement traditional airdasher.

The last airdasher was bbtag or dbfz

The last SOLO airdashers were rev2 and cf lmao

>>527120657
I blame the Big Body Blunder

But I don't want Strive to die :\

>>527122043
Then you're in luck because its basically unkillable despite twitterfag's wishcasting it

>>527122323
Yaay

>>527122323
Four characters need to be annihilated for it to stay that way.

>>527121004
melty is more movement heavy than airdashers because air actions aren't limited the same way.
If you are just talking about the "melty airdash" quite a few characters have traditional horizontal airdash as well.

Slayer f.S is just a better Sol f.S

He's getting bullied with the things he's saying. Everything he spouts is utterly retarded.

Use the built in saucenao feature before replying

>>527125624
depends on spacing and if you want to spend meter or not.
basic 5 minute combo is 5B 5C 214A214D for 2K damage.
if you aren't at tip range you can add 5D before the special cancel for 2.4k.
meter spend gets 3.6k still with dash 5C into air combo.
More advanced combo gets nearly 4k by doing dash 5C 5D(1) GH delay followup 5B 6A air combo.
If you are close enough to do 5B 6A from the start you can get either immediate air combo(basic) or GH delay followup into air combo(advanced).

>>527125893
5B 5C 214A214D is not execution. This is 1 more button than a strive character doing 5K 2D special. The difference is that if you can visually confirm the distance you can add to your string and get more damage.
Some characters will have access to more but the basic combos are still 1-3 buttons into a special move. 5B 5C 3C 236B or whatever. You can get decently far with just this.

>>527147263

When Tokon releases are we going to make an Arcsys general no BB fags allowed?

>>527160751
What are your thoughts about Xrd Millia?

>>527161386
im not sharing a thread with shartvel fans

>>527161386
i will enter your general and post battle fantasia clips

>>527161646
We don't play that crap here.

>>527161646
Dunno, I've got like 3 hours in Xrd and didn't run into a Millia during that time

>>527162624
god I want to play and toy with and use millia

>>527159841
Strive isn’t like street fighter where dozens of niggas try to compete with the best all rounder. She might get an emergency nerf like dizzy lol

>>527161386
It'll probably get infested with people who pose as MvC fans saying it's a disappointment to Marvel fighting games. The game war never ends. It's just posers and passionate nerds.

>>527161386
Not a bad idea since we're already discussing Tokon here.

more like tok off

>>527160710
They could shrink the hurtbox when the sword is gone

>>527163562
Maybe if you stopped giving the posers so much god-damn attention they'd stop larping as old game enjoyers

>>527163562
just become a marvel 3 tierwhore and ft10 them

Jannies need to start banning posers who are only here to derail threads

>>527161386
Arcsys general makes more sense since they make up a significant amount of fighting games. And hopefully if we include more games we'll get more posters that actually play games.

>>527165182
We have more lobbies here than every other general

>>527165594
/melty/ unironically has more than anyone else

>>527165723
We need to steal the grubbers tournaments but idk how many people would be interested

>>527165594
/gbvsg/ stole a lot of our lobby goers. Especially the EU ones

>>527165795
how would you steal it, the TO for those tournaments left here in the first place

>>527168612
Is that where the MayTO has been all this time?

>>527169035
https://www.youtube.com/@grumblebumble69/

yeah

>>527169136
That damn traitor...

>>527169136
How do we bring him back

>>527169702
buff goldlewis

>>527165723
It is unfair to compare the amount of lobbies that occur in a 3 day thread to a thread that lasts 3 weeks

>>527170209
Goldlewis is already top tier...

>>527170407
Going by LBP (lobbies per post)

fucking hate being schooled by fucking zoomers, i hate everything

>>527172667
/Melty/ also gaps this place in noels per post

>>527169702
wait for GG5 to come out and see if he likes it

>>527130275
Yeah. I suppose I need to do it daily. In hindsight, I realized what I do is
>practice combo for a few hours
>get into matches trying to land it
>fail but thats okay, hit up the next match
>next day
>don't lab it "cus I still remember"
>get into matches, still don't land it
>repeat, slowly forget the combo
frustrated with myself for not seeing it sooner

>>527165594
Thats because every other general has actual matchmaking

>>527180407
They don't play casual matches against eachother?

>>527180528
grabble people just go to the open lobby(park) since they can rig one that only people in the know are able to enter. there's usually 2-3 people there, sometimes up to 10.

>>527165795
be the change you want to see, rise to the challonge

reply to this post
If you are forcing yourself to play this game
be honest

>>527181707
I have to force myself to stop playing this game because I love it so much!

y'all got any more of that strive?

>>527181707
no i like it but i hate everyone else cause they are better than me while applying less effort and playing retarded unrespectable characters

>>527163562
>everyone I don't like is a poser
Grow up man, don't you see that you're contributing to the game warring?

>>527163562
Based piercing the veil poster

Why does Sin just always have meter?

What’s the point of happy chaos’ guard crush if he can’t do any mix before they recover and it doesn’t hold them enough to guarantee curse?

>>527189690
can't he reload and focus cancel?

>>527189778
I think he’s minus if he focuses after a steady aim shot. Asking because I’m trying to learn him so I’m not sure.

>>527189690
._.
u srs?

i've played 6 hours today but i don't think i really learned anything

>>527189690
>Happy Chaos readies a gun in an vulnerable state, unable to move or attack, but firing in this state is very strong. When fully focused, the shot will Guard Crush an opponent, allowing Chaos to be as much as +20 when cancelled into Cancel Aim

>In pressure, the hugely advantageous Guard Crush of a focused shot means Chaos can threaten a very strong Tick Throw which cannot be fuzzy jumped, and easily approach again even after Faultless Defense.
?

GET OVER NIGHTMARES
OOOOH WE CAN TAME THE DARKNESS

>>527189690
Nigga

An inch is added to Katano's neck for every move he gives guard crush

Unika players sure are carried

How do you mentally overcome getting round start grip and sipped by potemkin?

>>527194431
throw i think?

I am so fucking sick of fighting celestial Sins. Please nerf this fucker into the ground.

if they add a tranny to tokkon strive will die overnight

>>527194876
im going to win a tournament with bridget

>>527194876
pantyhose >>> bare thighs

Sol players are legitimately just f.s, WA and BB bots now. Having to think instead of coin flipping with BR really broke them

>>527196727
wrong opinion "sir"

finna hunch

cant wait for johnny to get kneecapped oh my fucking god

>>527202514

>>527202738
I blocked it

>>527197330
It’s either that or play him in another game.

>>527203987
The game where they all instead play the dude in the skirts charge not charge guessing game or the game infested with the ebin specials only Sol?

>>527204694
If a Sol is only using specials you should be able to beat him easily. In Strive every single special is death on block.

>>527127291
No just some fag with like one post about guilty gear before the bridget shit then went full meltdown and labeled arcsys as the devil because the secondary fagbait became secondary trannybait

my favorite archetypes are grappler with a full screen armored step dash and 50/50 mixup rushdown with full screen normals

i think happy chaos should be a guest character in marvel tokon and also he should be the only guest character
personally i think that would be really funny

i hope marvel tokon features dante from the devil may cry series

>>527064420
this sounds like some millia or chipp shit

>>527076384
what move is it

>>527181362
wait they can make a lobby park thing that only people with the code can join?
why can't we do that in this fucking video game?

was anon right about venom? How does he feel about him now?

>>527096982
clayton was the hero keeping /dbfzg/ alive

>>527212571
qrd? i only know about his beef with LK

>>527212720
clayton posting sometmes generated a lot of activity on the thread and that is how you keep a gen alive

>>527212720
he posts here sometimes

>>527213163
>>527213838
i was kinda hoping there would be more to the story than that but thanks anyways

>>527212065
Not a code.
There is an option to turn off crossplay on lobbies which will put you in a different set of their version of the park. Nobody else can see it unless they also turn off crossplay which almost no people going to the park do.

>>527205443
I was talking about Xrd you doofus. The whoops all specials sol is a blight on that game

>>527216670
I had it backwards. I see more Sols in +R.

there is too much stuff to learn. I can't keep up anymore and i'm tired. I give up

aba 5H is so kookily and corny

i like how iack-o still have all these glitches that make her a buggy mess 4 years in. why she can still hit servants past her hit limit with regular strikes?

>captcha: marry

Give me one good argument against why removing canadian burst wasn't a good thing and didn't made GG infinitely less retarded for having to take into account messy gravity values into your burst timings.

>>527223907
I need to impregnate her stirrups

>>527224060
Idk I like fullscreen burst

>>527223907
how can dizzy and ky have such an ugly daughter, I want a fucking churchgirl not whatever this thing is

Pro Clayton crew coming in. People only hate him because he's not a incel. Funny af too with these videos desu. I'm not sure if there is anything he can't do when it comes to video games.

Slayer is the most fun character to fight because you are either killing him or getting killed
no corny fullscreen wild assault combos to watch either so you get to play more

>>527225898
getting two touched by an ape mashing 2H is not less corny than wild assault.

>>527225984
who do you play

>>527225898
slayer combos are corny as fuck
>2S mappa 2S mappa 2S mappa super

>>527226984
yes thats the point of my post combos are corny,
however slayer combos kill you while wild assault combos have scaling and you have to keep blocking afterwards

>>527226575
millia

>>527222513
there is just too much work to do man, they want me to write an essay about what did i do wrong after every match and analyze it. I never wrote anything in my life, skipped that shit in school too, wtf

>>527227692
are you using the BOFFA method?

Uniqua

>>527228225
i had to open the urban dictionary for that

Fat ass lie.

Small ass truth.

My high low game is ass, how do people keep up the pressure so well?

its Xrd obviously

finna blame the beasts for what I'm about to do to Bridget

I'm gonna do it today, I'm gonna learn combos.

I still genuinely dont know what Gio is supposed to do about Slayer save for running straight into his normals
And before you mention oki, please dont
The oki is the same for every character

>>527247990
same thing as everyone else beats slayer
display a massive skill difference and win every interaction without fail

>>527247990
Ehh
Eto...
Uhhhh

>>527248498
you ain't kawaii nigga

I think in the past few years playing this game ive legitimately lost the ability to react to shit

Any problems with this button layout?

>>527250424
your fd macro?

>>527248498
kawaii

>>527250492
Its 2 buttons? Am I missing something?

>>527250845
>accidentally input a 1f plink
COUNTER

>>527250845
look at mr "i'm too cool to use the fd macro" over here.

>>527251278
Clean up your inputs

>>527251704
https://youtu.be/3uz4FIXlJbE

>>527250323
if you can’t react unironically just get better at guessing. fuck reacting to and throwing masters hammer I’m mashing 2K and if I get pikebunkered it happens

>>527251704
Speaking of which is it actually possible to forward IAD without macro? I can do it away from opponent on both sides but I can't seem to do it toward opponent.

>>527077450
>Give Giovanna werewolf install
based.

>>527247990
Does your entire neutral game rely on 2D or something? The fuck are you struggling with in that MU

>>527253751
He just kinda zooms across the screen tossing out massive counterhit buttons and for my character to function i have to be inside his massive burst
It's not more complicated than that, a misplay against a Ky or something doesnt lead to instant death usually

>>527231387
you'll hit rank 20 or higher by pressing good neutral buttons into simple combos and knowing how to block. If you do 5B 5C super when you have meter it also helps though RC combos will be better. I've seen people do it. My friend got to level 29 with a character and said "I should learn a DP punish combo since this person kept DPing and I was only getting 1.8k off the punish"
just be good at fighting games

>>527252031
Thanks man, really useful. I came up with this
>>527250424
after playing COTW and I really like that control scheme. I put FD on my top pinky but I can see myself using this technique. Some more explanation why I use this button setup
>Easy to link 6P off dash kicks
>K and D right next to eachoter
>H and Dash next to eachother for safejumps
>can plink bottom pinky (RC) and dash for that RC cancel thing
The only thing that isn't easily accessible is RC by itself.

>>527255089
updated visual

>>527252520
i think you input 96 if it's the same as the older games.

>>527256153
96 doesn't seem to be working. I tried 9 5 6 but it seems really hard, if it even works.

>>527255680
>he fell the FD button meme
oh no no no no

>>527252520
i will withhold my comments at this time

>>527256649
is that on stick?

>>527252520
post feet and I'll explain

>>527250845
Yeah it's broken so that there's always 1 frame where you're in counter hit

>>527234391
I hate not regaining air actions after air tech though

Post MU charts of your main and your elo

>>527257251
on keyboard I'm hitting up+forward then releasing and tapping forward again with the same finger.

3v3bros, who's gonna tell him?

>>527257471
is playing ram a horrible mistake even in xrd?

>>527259239
she's a high effort mid tier that requires a lot of memorization

guilty_gear_strive gold_bikini

>>527259239
It's extremely satisfying to bait burst and rape your opponent with your bullshit fun combos but that simply doesn't happen for me so I don't find it worth it

I threw my phone too hard and it broke :(

>>527259239
their combos are ugly and never end so yes

>>527263905
This artist did Millia getting impregnated by BBC, what a goat!

dual stations still break this game has been out for 4 years

>>527273062
they will be wiped out in the flood

>>527273062
arcsys games aren't meant for you to enjoy playing them. They are there for the developers to flex their artstyle and animations. Watch the cinematic supers and see how good the models look with the shader. Also have you listened to daisuke's newest vocal tracks?

>>527273062
arcsys games are for beating your stroke meat to fat assed white women

>>527273062
Yes, and? It's art. It's supposed to make a statement. Make you feel things.

>>527274961
finna feel a fear

>>527274961
i dont like the feelings it gives me

>>527275363
I can help you work out all those strange new feelings. I cane make them feel good

So, when Daisuke going back making trash metal? The current ost in both Xrd and Strive are kinda not my cup of tea. The only song I like among new GG is Heavy Day.

>>527281620
does AToM not count?

>>527281620
I think his best work is bbcf
also baikens theme sucks but that's unrelated

>>527281620
Meet Again is my favorite ost

this character is a buggy mess!

Why did no one tell me Leon Massey has cancer bros...

so what's the /ggg/ consensus on Unika? saw some top players thinking she was mid but one of them was famous downplayer of everything SQ

>>527302123
majorly lacking of sex appeal

>>527302123
its may with Sol's bike
>I mean how she plays
who actually cares

watching replays of me playing in '21 and realizing im an unc now

playing a long set against Slayer with Unika has made me realize he's even more bullshit than I thought
the amount of random interaction and matchup winning privilege on this character is insane

i think i sealed my fate to unhappiness the moment i picked gio in that day of June 11, 2021. Nothing but misery came after it

>>527304371
you're just upset that 2D beats 5H

>>527307920
I'm just upset the dog isn't more of a gimmick in her animations and that she doesn't get a full werewolf install. This bitch aint a replacement for Talbain.

>>527302123
most annoying character in the game

someone should fucking burn the arcsys hq with all the employees inside like they did with that anime studio. I can't take these faggot ass big bodies anymore
