The game puts a heavy weight on streaks, probably. Assuming you won those matches.

The gently caress is going on in that second combo?

I was gonna be like "Oh that's easy it's probably just a kara-cancel" and then the combo kept going and I have no idea

I do know all sorts of weird physics stuff happens if you kara-cancel specials that move you around, it's how Potemkin can sometimes pot buster you at round start

Glagha posted:

I'm gonna take wild guesses and just throw random Potemkin advice at you and hope some of it helps.

If he's doing Garuda meaty at you at midscreen you can backdash out. You'll still get HIT but he'll launch you across the screen and have zero follow up and taking like 70 damage is preferable to being put in a 50/50 for your entire rear end. Don't do it in the corner or he'll delete you from the game.

Blocked garuda has three correct responses and you've gotta guess: jump/backdash, invincible reversal, or block. He's so plus you can't jab him out of anything he's about to do and you don't have the usual benefit of the throw invuln grace period after blocking an attack in guard crush. Also make sure to FD it it does like a billion chip damage.

You can throw or 6P pot out of hammer fall and no amount of RCing will save him.

Hammerfall is very very unsafe, but if you start punishing it the pot can start RCing before it ends instead of as it ends. Especially if someone is sitting there holding block waiting to punish you can RC>pot buster easily

Garuda is amazing though. I've killed people in the corner who just kept blocking it, you can tell by the second one they're like poo poo this isn't working and start to panic

Gotta love the ragequits!

I switched from Playstation to PC. I've never had a ragequit on Playstation, but I've had several on PC. Almost all of them were Chipp players against May in celestial. I assume it's because Alt+F4 is much faster than the Playstation button presses needed.

So, if Goldlewis fights Chipp, does that count as a declaration of international war?

Right. I should go to the park to try out a new character. Trying to jump into the tower with Dickinson was a mistake.

I'm labbing random stuff - Dickinson has no blockstrings?? Not even 5P 5P or S H work. On the other hand, the H after S has <3 frames startup, I've tried with Chipp, it's a counterhit every time.
Basic 66RC stuff at the corner (6H, 426H, 66RC, 5S, 5H, 624H, wallbreak) give more or less 210 damage to Pot and 310 to Chipp.
Also, the 1080 super input is too long for my hands and I can't combo it reliably - that super has a really short hitbox.

Weird character.

I played someone brave enough to take on the Celestial challenge with Goldlewis. I applaud the player's tenacity.

Weird character.

Only actual block string I could manage was in the corner S, low Behemoth. That was only 15 minutes, though.

Right, some S into Behemoth are real block strings, IIRC the only ones that won't confirm are 486 and 426. I was surprised at the 5S 5H followup, though.

edit:
clockwise
624 confirms
486 is too slow
248 confirms
862 is too slow

counter-clockwise
426 is too slow
684 confirms
268 confirms
842 is too slow

those which start with 6 or 2 will confirm.


edit2:
cS 2H works like cS 5H - H has a 1 or 2 frames startup.

I cannot do the behemoths that involve upwards inputs to save my life. I could probably eventually get them down with enough practice, but I dunno if it's worth it when May rules so much and is so fun to play.

Edit: y'know what I know someone's going to feel the need to be a smartass so let me just pre-emptively say yes May does in fact rule gently caress off. :colbert:

My immediate vibe on Goldlewis as an Axl player: He's probably the scariest matchup for Axl that's still generally in Axl's favor, because while it's fairly easy to keep him under control, he gets terrifying if he slips your grasp and gets to do some stuff.

Skyfish is also one of the few full-screen options capable of beating Rensengeki, thanks to having basically instantaneous travel. An Axl spamming Rensen will beat a Gold spamming Skyfish because of Skyfish's longer 'wind-down' animation, but Gold can whip out a Skyfish and use that to run in really well.
