anyone who does this is a scrub, don't build up a huge army. deathballing is cool and all but it shouldn't be allowed to happen

build up a little squad of dickhead assholes like zerglings and go run them into your enemy supply lines if it's a starcraft style rts, or if it's dawn of war do containment (put big dudes in towers around their base). cripple their economy instead of trying to fight them.

my old roommate used to turtle terran and i'd let him hit unit cap and all of that and he'd be unstoppable and it'd boggle my mind!!! then i learned five roach rush and poo poo on him so hard i had to stop using it to have fun

i am really bad at fighting games but i still have a lot of fun playing them so i guess if you can't have fun playing a game maybe its just not a good game / you are a literal child

literal children have a lot of fun with all sorts of dumb poo poo so i'm not sure that's accurate.

racing games, which is odd because my actual job is driving IRL

I am just terrible at them, even mario kart

I also can't get out of silver league in starcraft 2 but I at least have some fun playing that

Also, learn to shoot in short, controlled bursts. If you're holding down the fire button for more than a second at a time you're doing it wrong.

It's when you hit someone in a fighting game to see if they are vulnerable and if they are you follow up with a combo, IIRC.

Wormskull

By vulnerable I mean they'll be vulnerable for the full combo because the hitstun from the confirming hit is long enough to continue into a combo.

You poke someone with a safe attack and if it connects you follow with another attack.

I am bad at fightgames so I rarely play them. Though I did have a roommate hella into them who made me practice a bunch of sfiv to the point where random noises around the house (like kitty footsteps) started sounding like the same timing/pattern of button presses for Dudley's bread and butter combos. Scared me off fightgames it did.
