dhamster posted:I usually pick green because it is my wife's favorite color That's mad cute. I like Cotton Candy Gio, but tbh, I think I play better with cooler colors. Warmer colors with Gio entice me to think that 214K is plus on block in my experience. I'm trying to decide on a secondary to main. I've always loved May's songs, and I love her leg tattoo in this game, but I played my first decent I-no tonight and that poo poo was crazy and all that high-low-mix seemed mad fun. I know it's only like day 4 of the game, but do you think one of those picks would suit a Gio main more than the other?

I go for green Axl. No strong reason, I just wanted to not use the default colors and that one looked nice. I'm thinking of picking up Faust, and in that case I'll also be using the pure green just because... well, he's a surgeon, and Scrubs taught me that surgeons wear the green scrubs!

Green Axl has a nice hair color, and Green Faust looks dope too. The skin tint they choose for that palette matches the scrubs super well imo.

I don't really want to use an alternative color on Faust because they change the color of the giant red tube dangling between his thighs.

I kinda wish they didn't have the same floor ranking for every character in Strive, so that you could be floor 10/heaven on one character and like.. floor 7 on someone you've never played Tekken style I could go to the open parks to try out new characters and that works fine basically, but it's nice to have the matchmaking when I'm trying to practice something new.

Flawless defense (back + any two buttons) causes anybody wailing on you to get knocked back long enough to mash out, and if you’re really getting pounded you can RC to reset. Or just wakeup super FTW.

Really important to note that FD adds extra block stun as a trade off for you pushing them back further You really don't want to FD everything as it can render some punishable moves unpunishable or even plus. Important that you don't get in the habit of always using FD even outside of meter consumption

yorkinshire posted:Any tips for getting out of the corner other than psychic blast? A handy technique is to wait for a gap in their string, then jump or super jump (while blocking) and airdash out. IAD can work too, sometimes. Air escapes like these are not foolproof, but they will work more often if they are pushing too far forward on you while minus. If they're smart, they will start backing up or waiting when their turn is over so that they can be in a better position to anti air or air throw you. This opens up more screen space on the ground for you to footsies your way out. On the flip side, if you want to keep someone in the corner, back up a little when it's not your turn anymore. dhamster fucked around with this message at 16:01 on Jun 16, 2021 |

Cleretic posted:Actually, as someone who does know Slayer, are there references in Nago's animations to him or am I imagining things? I saw Nago has a defeat animation where he props his head up on his hand and looks up at you, which I want to say is a Slayer thing, either literally or in spirit. His command grab is literally Slayer's! Same animation and everything. guppy posted:I fought my way back up to floor 5. I've been trying out Potemkin. I have only managed to land one Potemkin Buster, often accidentally doing 6P instead. I don't love not being able to dash, but his reach is so good and when he does connect he hits like a truck. I have never seen another Potemkin down at my level so people don't really know what to do with him. I had one clown start to match, see I was Potemkin, and back out to change to Chipp and re-matched, thinking he was going to body me and I pushed his poo poo in, which was very satisfying. I have been playing GG for a while and I still have issues with the Half circle back > Forward motion. When I really have to pull it out I can but I also have a much easier time doing it from the left side. The air grab in many games is more useful for combos than it is for just straight up grabbing people out of the air. You usually have much quicker and safer options to knock people out of the air (6P in a lot of games, have not played enough Strive to see) Chipp literally dies in 2 Pot combos I don't know why this person thought he was doing a big own

there’s no combo into air grab in gg. in practice it’s often used as an anti-air – jump up and air grab the incoming opponent. personally i gently caress up the directional input and get jD when i want an air grab and air grab when i want jD.

They were talking specifically about Pot's Heat Knuckle (DP H), which is traditionally a combo ender moreso than an anti-air (even though it looks like it ought to be good for that).

oh yeah. funny thing about heat knuckle is it’s not technically a grab so you can block it in this game.

Finally got some time to get into this and really liking Giovanna so far. Hanging around Floor 4 is going well, I just need to stop using her 236H or whichever is her flying kick forward so much. exquisite tea posted:Samurai character pickers deserve whatever misfortune befalls them.

Just mix in the occasional dashing 2D and get some juicy counterhits on anyone trying to 6P your 236K. Once they're afraid to guess if you're going to 236K or 2D, you can just run up from full screen and throw their rear end

I wish I could convert off 236K because right now I catch lot of people when they misjudge the range/speed, and I'm still experimenting to find what's best for pressure after it puts them down I just need to stop relying on single moves cuz it reminds me of when SFV came out and I was learning Mika but spamming her HK or 2HP moves constantly lol e: unrelated, is there a way to see total matches played? I can see my matches won and all that, just curious if I can see total played somewhere. Skypie fucked around with this message at 21:35 on Jun 16, 2021 |
