I remember playing a game of Dota where a guy used a certain spell, and I used nothing but a creeping intuition to estimate when he could use it again. Thing is, he used it 5 seconds earlier than I anticipated so I died. I quickly went and checked and found out they had changed that spell cooldown from 22 seconds to 17 seconds in like 2012, which was a year after I had internalized the spell cooldown. I don't know whether to call that muscle memory or just memory but that is pretty crazy to me that I could remember the cooldown from 4 years ago AND I was able to estimate the cooldown intuitively without actually counting Minorkos fucked around with this message at 15:57 on Aug 3, 2015 |

I play Guild Wars 2, cooldowns are nothing to me

I don't think they've sent out any more invite waves since last Friday, when they sent out invites to everyone who had signed up by then. I'd think they'd send out another wave today to get the people that have signed up since then, but odds are decent someone reading this thread can send you a friend invite.

I don't have PM's and didn't want to turn this in to a code begging thread, I'll just wait it out or try and snipe one if more get posted.

It's totally not safe against everyone else. Edge can punish with his standing light, and depending on range Vlad can punish with crouching light (cancelled into his own special 3)

What options does Dauntless have against Vlad? It's the only matchup that gives me trouble anymore, because his stupid uppercut stuffs any attempts at pressure I try to start. I can get in on him but then I have no way to make him block high, since overheads and jumping both get stuffed super hard by that thing.

His uppercut has short range meaning you can be just outside of it for medium/hard hit pressure on wakeup or a combo if he wiffs. Block high always unless at point blank waking up, Vlad has no low real lows apart from C.Ligh. Dust breaker advance should be heartily used and abused on hit or block, as Vlad generally wants to get in it shouldn't be hard to land. Jab punishes his spin on block, this goes into special 1 super making Vlads most useful chip/pressure tool disappear from the matchup. Vlads Jab is exceptionally weak, You can special 1 in any time you see a projectile coming due it it being functionally safe on block against him. Honestly, as a Vlad player I think Dauntless is his worst matchup. Dauntless doesn't seem like an exceptionally amazing character but against Vlad you control the space where he wants to be.

This weekend my video card locked up a couple times and RT was always capped at 30fps afterwards. Restarting my PC fixed it. Maybe some weird/bad Vsync handling?

The Gorp posted:It's better than Vlads projectile too. Clearly Edge needs this new fireball to make up for the slight nerf to his old V1's recovery time  It's not exactly a "fireball" as far as I can tell in training so much as a long energy slash. but it does have more reach than it looks, and that reach is shy past one quickstep forward from the edge of the screen.

This game has the dumb thing where you can corner crossup someone and land in front if you time poo poo correctly, I got it to work with Chel's front throw. Also Seth Killian please make Chel's f+H a b+H instead, it's loving up my sick-rear end neutral st.H attempts ktnx Dias fucked around with this message at 04:54 on Aug 4, 2015 |

Chel's crossup moves her hurtbox in a bogus way. If flips you over them instantly even if you didn't have the jump angle to pull it off. It's secretly her best tool for offence, I don't see many people use it because they are locked into zoning mode.

You can mix it up by ending the combo with st.relentless pursuit and juggling with gathering storm after the wall bounce instead.

Yeah I was messing around with him and Gamma (special 3?) wallbounce into Super is  Man I really wish they would allow for stick functionality, using a keyboard or gamepad for this is the most odd feeling.
