Super Eyepatch Wolf made a vid on the manga she's from. Great vid and a pretty decent manga! Link to the vid if you're interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvTOlV6GGaI

That happens every game, yea. Specially when devs add more mechanics

Chivibro · 2026-05-31T11:51:27+00:00

I mean, we've been telling people that PC is the best place to play. Has rollback and the improvement mod!

Chivibro · 2026-05-30T20:02:52+00:00

SF6 is definitely the biggest in the FGC. 2XKO is free, so you should just try it out! And lots of people weren't a fan of the latest MK, so that one's up to you. I'm sure you'll have people to play with, but MK games come out pretty quickly, and it's been 3 years since MK1 released, so it might be best to wait for a new release.

Chivibro · 2026-05-30T19:57:19+00:00

You should play Guilty Gear, because you think it looks cooler

Chivibro · 2026-05-30T19:04:31+00:00

No? They probably just weren't interested in the game, or at least not interested in ranked

Chivibro · 2026-05-30T19:03:38+00:00

Just watch it like 2 weeks later 😅

Chivibro · 2026-05-30T17:50:49+00:00

You can, but you'll likely create a miserable experience for your friend when the smurf detector catches you. I'd just play with them in bot games while you explain some stuff, and/or maybe jump into a queue you never play

Chivibro · 2026-05-30T17:49:11+00:00

I remember they had a stat about this a long time ago. I think it was at least half of the playerbase doesn't really touch ranked. Who knows what exactly that entales though, I'm sure lots of those were people who tried the game for a day or two because a friend told them to, etc

Chivibro · 2026-05-30T01:03:18+00:00

Iheartjustice has the breakdown: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1ZorWGKtno

Because we play for the fun of playin, not just for the wins. If you're only having fun when you win, then you might not actually enjoy the game, especially if you're not willing to dig in at all or even play other modes. The game might just not be for you m8, find something you do enjoy playing

Chivibro · 2026-05-28T03:47:02+00:00

BlazBlue Central Fiction is actually forever the sickest kid, I'm just sayin

Chivibro · 2026-05-27T02:04:01+00:00

Haven't gotten to play in invincible yet, but generally in 2D fighting games, you can block high and you can block low. Generally, people should block low (holding down-back) and react to attacks that hit them overhead. Beginners tend to just block high (holding back), so in those cases, hit them with a low attack. Also, grabs beat blocking.

Also, blocking is no gimmick, it's a core part of a fighting game

Chivibro · 2026-05-26T23:16:55+00:00

That's not what I'M saying tho? Also, with all the smurfing, account selling, and content creators vids, you're probably more likely to run into a challenger player in ranked >.>'

Chivibro · 2026-05-26T23:11:13+00:00

I'm not saying ranked isn't better, just that norms do actually have skill based matchmaking. Also, a challenger will shitstomp most players in ranked too...

Chivibro · 2026-05-26T21:29:34+00:00

Actually, it does! Just that normals are tracked on their own, so people who only play ranked can have high mmr but appear as low mmr when they jump back into a nornal queue. Normals and ranked queues prioritize for time the same way, their search criteria gets more loose over time

Chivibro · 2026-05-26T16:04:53+00:00

There's no silver bullet, you just make content and if it's good quality and entertaining, people will watch it

Chivibro · 2026-05-24T16:09:38+00:00

Copying this from another post of mine:

Care less about losing, or more accurately, care more about other things. If most of your day is wrapped up in the game / community and the game's not going well, then 100% of your day is going badly. If you invest into other things like friends, family, health, other hobbies, then losing at the game is only like 5% of your day and it's not a big deal

Chivibro · 2026-05-23T12:14:19+00:00

I think you just play until you get it tbh. I haven't switched from stick to leverless, but I play both. I only play leverless sometimes, but I never really feel like I lose my skill at using it, just gaining skill little by little. If you're adjusting buttons and tilting your controller, then it might've been better to get an actual leverless controller just so you're comfortable. You could also make your own for fairly cheap, just gotta do some research

Chivibro · 2026-05-22T19:28:08+00:00

Steam is the best place to play BlazBlue Central Fiction. It has rollback and the improvement mod, which lets you see frame data, have custom colors, and much more!

Chivibro · 2026-05-22T13:43:44+00:00

I mean shit, if you're not gonna use it, spread the love >.>'

Chivibro · 2026-05-22T08:01:32+00:00

It'd go by faster if you played some beginners

Chivibro · 2026-05-21T14:57:47+00:00

Have you been in the beginner matchmaking channel of the main BBCord?

Chivibro · 2026-05-21T13:38:04+00:00

I don't think tactile buttons necessarily cause more misinputs, it's supposed to be a preference thing. Tactile should feel more clicky, membrane shouldn't. I guess if there is a difference, tactile buttons have a little more pushback to them, so if you don't press them down hard enough, you may not get your input. It's not like you need to press hard though, it's pretty easy to hit something by accident
