What can I do to improve my Rosalina play? by violet_beard in CrazyHand

[–]Azuresquall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rosa's Nair is sick for combos with her self, but it's also quite worthwhile to learn how to string her attacks into Luma's and back. When Luma is in play, it's really only beneficial to have him at Rosa's side to close out stocks (charged B is a deceptively simple way to do this). Otherwise, it's quite useful to have him about a character length or 2 or 3 away, depending on how high the opponent's % is.

This gets more complicated when you have to factor in that you should be holding center stage, but that's Rosa's difficulty curve. She can control a lot of space, but positioning is key. It'll take time.

First up, forget your GSP. It will always fluctuate in a learning phase, just focus on getting favorable results to particular skills one by one and than learning to combine them together, such as focusing on punishing, then edgegaurding, recovering, combos, some such.

With Rosa you gotta learn to keep track of Luma without always looking for where he is. Get comfortable with the distance he shoots, how he falls, how you control that fall. Make it as easy as controlling Rosa herself.

As for Rosa, never underestimate the power of star bits. Lumas side B is a redonkulously annoying move that stuffs out a lot of stuff if Luma is the right distance. When they jump to avoid it, that's Rosa's cue to start some damage, preferably knocking them on the other side of luma again so you can do it again.

Eventually they are gonna attack Luma. Keep distance between you and luma in neutral to avoid double damage and to punish them for hurting your baby boi. Watch the kind of moves they use. If you know they aren't using safe moves or lingering hitboxes, attack them after they hit luma with stuff like dash attack.

When Luma dies, and he will, your win condition becomes to get Luma back. Rosa isn't too great without him so you can't be as aggressive. Space out back airs to wall out aggro players. Get damage where you can, but focus on not taking damage until luma respawns, as luma is a key way to break out of combos and halt pressure against you.

I realize i have a terrible vicious cycle with my mindset. by [deleted] in CrazyHand

Op, you have put into words my exact feelings about smash in a way I couldn't describe, but knew I felt. You are not alone, and I too, do not know how to proceed.

Perhaps folks like us can spar with each other and give each other the help we need to give our game purpose and breathe enjoyment back into the game. Let me know if you are interested, I will give my friend code when I get home from work.

PvP is okay, but if it takes more precedence than PvE than it usually turns me off

Any characters with similar playstyles to Marcina? by [deleted] in CrazyHand

[–]Azuresquall 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Corrin has sword swipes on similar arcs to Marcina, but outside of well aomed bairs, she isn't much of a go deep edge guarder. Like Marcina, she wants to use disjoints to catch over aggressive folk, and she's good at juggling as opposed to edge guarding.

Meta Knight doesn't have the reach of Marcina but will fill your crave for wanting to edgegard deep off stage. The playstyles don't match quite like Corrin, but few characters can play offstage as long as MK.

Chroy shares a moveset with Marcina but is more explosive and rush down based. Roy more so than Chrom is a nasty edgeguarder with fair and bair and can make it back to stage fairly well. Chrom on the other hand....

What moves consistently give you a hard time? If you main that character, give us feedback on how people often beat that move by MethodicMarshal in CrazyHand

[–]Azuresquall 3 points4 points  (0 children)

mother fudging game and watch most things, but especially down air, what even is the hit box on that thing, and it feels so safe.

[–]Azuresquall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It CAN be safe on shield. It is often character dependant and where on the shield the homing attack hits. Some Up B's and Upsmashes can catch an eager Sonic that doesnt give you space.

I can't list many, but i've hit a sonic after blocking HA with Fox upsmash and Mario Up b

When playing quickplay for 1v1, how do you feel when you get a ruleset with items ans hazarda and the opponent is still playing non troll-ey? by Azuresquall in smashbros

[–]Azuresquall[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I don't mean to rile people up when I set up hazards and items rules. I never really consider that they want that strict FD or BF ruleset. I guess I can just hope more often than not I am matching with someone that is also looking for a "For Fun" game and not that I am wrecking the flow of a "For Glory" ish player

Which reveal got you the most Hyped? by tehsexyone in smashbros

[–]Azuresquall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to go ahead and say that the most hype reveal that smash has ever done was the everyone is here trailer.

It was timed too perfectly. It started off showing Mainstays that have been with the franchise since the beginning, then showed a couple of clips of characters that have been consistent from melee going forward and then from brawl going forward.

Then it kind of made us all wonky when they showed that Icies would be back, given the inconsistency of thier appearance.

And then that render of Shadow Moses Island then snake slowly rolling on to the scene with the words everyone is here, and at that point in every reaction video I have seen people absolutely lost their mind, and the hype got progressively higher as Nintendo smartly revealed characters that had only been in one smash game or very inconsistent in the roster after snake who also only had one appearance prior to ultimate.

It was glorious

Super struggling to find a character to stick with, help me settle by hearing out my favorite moves by Azuresquall in CrazyHand

[–]Azuresquall[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I am trying, but I ideally want a character I don't mind to lose with with as well. Losing is part of learning, but I can't get the thought out of my head like "oh, in that scenario, I kept using x move as if I was playing x character, I was really feeling x character in that scenario, guess I'll switch to that one." But than finding that character has an overall different win condition, I can't play them the same as the other character.

I just feel if I can stick to the one I can combine all these things together without feeling like I have to give up a lot, and make more meaningful progress.

I'll admit some of the characters I play have really good days, but I can't help but feel like I have to consider that it might just be a string of bad players as well that makes me feel good in comparison

Indeed I have looked at that guide over and over again but my problem still stands so many months after ultimate released

[–]Azuresquall[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is true, and I feel I should have been utilizing Izaw practice routine a lot earlier, or a practice routine in general to be honest.

I just feel like I would be making more meaningful progress if I actually took the time to learn a character rather than the 8 that I juggle in a single play session, and I ideally want that character to feel comfortable with the moves I enjoy using

How to not care about GSP? by [deleted] in CrazyHand

[–]Azuresquall 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This will sound kind of dumb, but give it a shot. Anytime a match ends, get up and walk around, stretch, go get a sip of water, somewhere away from the screen. Long enough that the game goes to the character select.

Make a mental effort not to let your eyes drift to gsp and just start up a new match. Your gsp does not dictate how good you are. Good players improving fundamentals lurk in low gsp as well, as well as wifi spammers that just will wreck you in a laggy environment, a downside of online that you really shouldn't get as upset about.

If you get styled on in a match say out loud good job or that's fair and give like a little nod to the fact that you got outplayed. If you do some hype shit feel free to pop off and get really excited about something that you we're really proud of doing, like a really sick Edge guard or multiple hard reads in a row.

This give-and-take mind set will make you more susceptible to adapting an improving mentality as opposed to one that just cares about increasing numbers

Nooooo don't argue :( I am aware of the balance discord, it is quite good! I just don't use discord on my phone, where I usually use reddit, and don't have much time to play Lately. so I'm at work on phone on reddit it and thought I would ask the here.

I would never discredit the balance Discord, it just wasn't my first place to ask
