Why don't we start our own petty squabbles instead? The relative positioning of hitbox and hurtbox is called priority, the lack of tripguard is called tripguard, and the new Granblue fg is going to be good. I actually believe all of this

It’s the tech Nintendo added to the newer Smash Bros. games after their characters kept accidentally falling over in Brawl

"I really like that the "super combos" of this game are just pulling both trigger buttons. It makes the challenge knowing when to use it, instead of knowing silly finger puzzles."

in case this isn't bait: trip guard is when a game lets you immediately block low after an empty jump (thus, guarding you from getting tripped). in games without trip guard you have to land from the jump (leaving you standing for 1f) and then crouch to block low, which means anti-air sweep is a better option than "real" anti-air buttons

if a game doesn't have trip guard, clipping somebody with an unblockable low as they jump in is called trip guard

How was the netcode for the mk11 beta? Are there infinite rematches in ranked or player match?

There's infinite rematch and it shows you the latency in milliseconds instead of a nebulous "connection strength", and it shows whether your opponent is on Wi-Fi or a LAN connection

I love the idea that having supers on trigger buttons somehow makes them magically more useable in any scenario.

This owns. Infinite rematches are such a quality online feature, Tekken 7 spoiled me into wanting it in everything.

In case anyone is interested Netherrealm did a talk at GDC about their transition from lockstep to rollback networking:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jb0FOcImdg

Fair warning: it's a really dry talk if you don't care about the technical details of what's going on behind the scenes, but if you are interested its cool to see how much thought and effort they spent on improving their netcode.

There's no distinction between low or stand blocking from landing. In SF2, which is the game this discussion usually happens around, you can't block at all when landing from a jump. Even when used correctly, trip guard is a misnomer that came about because the most useful attacks for anti-airing in such a way were sweeps, or Trips, due to their long range and ability to go under most jump attacks. If someone was close, you were better off using a "real" anti-air since you'd likely just get hit with a jump-in trying to do an anti-air sweep.

It did in Fates Unlimited Codes where the button mapping options not only included stuff like A+B, but also Super 1/Super 2. And of course, the grappler character had a 720 super that could be mapped that way.

There's also the 3DS Guile thing where the touchscreen let you walk forward and endlessly throw Sonic Booms.

Dacidbro quit and a lot of folks went with him, but the best player for at least the past year didn't so there's still some hardcore folks, and it's apparently starting to pick up a small scene in Japan.
