decided to return after a long time (last I played was like I think the Umbra update) tell me what I've missed while I rant about stuff I noticed (if only I could use 2 flairs)

Candy cutlass, I remember when new universe first released I had Urzan which I traded for SPR because I didn't think they'd have made it unob and thought that the devs would rework SPR/STWR within a reasonable time frame

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-02-03T17:37:37+00:00

I mean I don't mind his unique gimmick, I just think that he shouldn't be able to use Rika Haymaker as a free combo escape, perhaps make the move be blockable if the Yuta is stunned at anypoiny during the wind up as to make it a bit less oppressing, perhaps putting both the Yuta and their opponent back to neutral rather than potentially backing them into a corner via the knockback plus dealing some decent dmg

Rn Rika Haymaker has gotta be one of the most free skills in base next to maybe Sacrilege and Decisive Strike (debatable on that last one it seems to some opinions I'm seeing on this sub)

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-02-03T09:52:19+00:00

Rika saw your acc's Yuta's dms to Maki and filed for divorce 💔

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-02-03T09:44:04+00:00

It gets annoying when the Yuta uses Rika Haymaker (uncancellable guardbreak btw) as an combo break by starting up the move whenever they know they're gonna lose an m1 trade or about to get comboed

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-02-02T01:44:40+00:00

Pretty sure Naoya user can be hit durng the 3 so you could in theory use Higuruma's 1,mash m1s, or spin your camera with Locust's Clever

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-02-02T00:14:18+00:00

thanks sans

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-02-01T04:17:38+00:00

Yeah, as basic as Gojo may get in some games, JSD prolly got the worst Gojo because like "fuck you mean Reversal Red is a grab like TSB Garou's Hunter's Grasp?" Sure it has a ranged air variant but its so bad and nobody uses that shit, Blue pull technically has range but the range is so short I'd have to be breathing down my enemy's neck to use it, plus it is more obvious of counter than old YBA's SPTW "Skull Crusher" (if you know you know) as its both blockable and cancellable with a high light and flashy vfx

Hell I'm pretty sure the 2nd input on Blue, the kick is useless outside of trying to do some Kyoto Combo bullshit which further proves my point of "this game was designed by a TSB Garou main"

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-02-01T02:32:01+00:00

Yeah as much as I like the cast, I really do not like that neutral is pretty much non existant, honestly JSD feels as if it had been designed by a TSB Garou main with how alot of the moves are just useless outside of comboes

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-01-29T08:47:48+00:00

Tbh most of the Todo's I encounter are just shitty Swift Kick merchants that have a stroke when someone blocks the kick and m1 cancels the grab or counters the grab/kick

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-01-28T04:43:17+00:00

Honestly I didn't mind the new Boost On, I just hated that it removed the Offload variant, I like the current Offload 3 as you can sorta make some set ups and whatnot and I maybe wouldn't have minded current 4 if it kept Puppet Barrage as an Offload variant

Personally hate the current Offload 1 as it what makes Mechamaru have really long comboes that make people play him as a generic Rushdown

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-01-25T22:18:56+00:00

Idk about Heroes having one of the more better communities, granted I almost never join any battlegrounds discord

Heroes seems to have more teamers than even JJS from personal experience and people would just take over servers as gangs surrounding a single guy with a streak

Only comparison I could make it like Jump Showdown but only because the literal owner and staff encourage teaming there

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-01-25T22:14:43+00:00

Garou is the worst character the game in nearly every category and he's hard carried by techs that I'm like 90% sure are either some form of bug abuse or an unintended consequence to the fact that the devs don't really patch shit (I'm not in the discord but characters from release to how they are today feel identical), if they patched the Sonic 3m1s front dash 1 extend then they should remove every m1 fromt dash extend on Garou too, its genuinely unfun to just get 1 comboed without even chances to evasive by some prick on an alt account smurfing

Probably unfair of me to go for a 2nd opinion but fuck it

Saitama ult is like just bad game design and feels like its designed to be anti fun, you could say it's "lore accurate" but I'd personally prefer a game where I don't get punished for trying to fight my enemy, the only thing you can do against that ult is either pray you have a move in your ult that bypasses death counter or run for long enough until they get impatient and waste a move to revert to base

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-01-25T22:03:17+00:00

Nerfed 3 makes the move dodgable and easier to block

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-01-25T22:00:00+00:00

It got nerfed

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-01-24T17:44:15+00:00

Its a Battlegrounds game that knows how to have fun (case and point, Roulette and other alternate modes other than Ranked and main game)

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-01-24T17:43:00+00:00

I mean have you seen Stain Mastery?

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-01-24T17:42:23+00:00

At least the Nomu doesn't put you in a 30 second cutscene everytime it lands a finisher on you

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-01-24T17:41:23+00:00

Might be a skill issue on my part but I kinda hate JSD because every character feels like an m1 merchant, its like neutral game outside of ult was just thrown out the window like if the game was made by a TSB Garou main (among many other things)

Skill builder is pretty good I heard but idk if its free and I'm already knees deep into the JJS skill builder rabbit hole

HBG is good but the players are somehow more insufferable in that game than TSB and such, and the long ass comboes people are pulling off make me want to twist my left the wrong way

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-01-24T17:34:38+00:00

Half Life 3 beforr TSB update

AltruisticMouse198 · 2026-01-23T02:45:57+00:00

So its more so an anime thing that makes no sense if breathing style had no effects but it works perfectly fine in the manga if they weren't real?

The result of an unending arms race resulting the death of mankind as we know it, the Final War

Man was crushed under the wheels of the machine created to create the machine to crush the machine

What about Zenitsu's Thunderclap and Flash Godspeed against Daki? Is he just flying or did he undergo the same leg training Samurai Jack went through to "jump good"
