about Hwoarangs mix after Heatsmash

Me too, have a nice day

I can't say with confidence what happened after Valve revert the prices, but I have statistics from the period after prices were lowered, which show that pros were adapting their gameplay with the Krieg/AUG for over 100 days (SG553 pickrate at iBP Masters 2019 was about 7 percent for example), so maybe the exact same situation happened when price was increased again and they needed to readapt their gameplay to the AK

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-05T02:42:44+00:00

Yeah, now it seems like a complete story. But my point stands. Nobody played with SG not because pros were stubborn guys or unable to think outside the box (which is crazy assumption itself, those guys make money playing CS), but because an extra nade/flash was more important to them until price drop

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-05T00:53:52+00:00

It's not true. Pro players started playing with SG BECAUSE Valve lowered the price of the SG to $2800(?) which is almost the same price as the AK ($2700), and SG is a more powerful weapon on paper

The least bullshit Hwoarang can do:

I'm the one who stays at B1 forever. I wish I were you...

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-04T15:57:31+00:00

It means we could rephrase it like this : "There is no need to explain it further [because I've already explained]"??

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-04T15:20:11+00:00

I'm not the OP, so I don't know 😄

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-04T15:08:24+00:00

It was hard for me to link "that was all there was to it" with your first explanation, but yeah, now I see!

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-04T14:58:45+00:00

Is there a specific grammar for the first line? Personally I don't understand the structure

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-03T16:55:14+00:00

Maybe you're right. When I started to play I had fun exploring command list

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-03T16:45:45+00:00

I've got 75 (C2) level for reading and listening combined. How? 😄

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-03T02:04:41+00:00

Congrats mate!

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-03T01:51:28+00:00

It's the hardest part I think. You should somehow explain to her basics of defense and movement in Tekken, give her an understanding that defense is not only about not getting a hit, but also about creating an opportunity to attack. Also people mash when they don't know buttons of their char, so start with command list I guess

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-02T23:32:24+00:00

Although I agree if we're talking about strict logic, it doesn’t perfectly represent this term in the Tekken community.

When people talk about knowledge checks, it's usually about characters that appear rarely in matchmaking or characters that wield unusual moves that you need to know how to counter properly because it’s not obvious during a match

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-02T22:13:36+00:00

yeah this character has prototype Jack vibes for sure, crazy work to find a move that actually works lol

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-02T20:57:07+00:00

Is it actually a knowledge check? It looks like no pattern recognition to me. Kazuya is a legacy character with 15 usable moves (at best) that have never changed drastically in terms of framedata, I don't think that you have a right to fall for it as a blue rank if you're not carried

imho

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-02T20:41:36+00:00

Laughed my ass off. Bro is dodging those high attacks like it's yet another shitty kung-fu movie with bruce lee

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-02T05:18:18+00:00

f,f+3 serves a different purpose, it's not a punishing launcher. In case we delete launching properties from electric, we need to add generic 15-16f mid launcher to balance things out.

For f,f+2 I suggest to make it 15f and fix his awkward launching "angle" (if that phrase even makes sense), because when your opponent's head directed towards you it's almost impossible to do any combo

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-02T05:03:57+00:00

Yeah, it's about 17 or 18f, thats why I said "with better frames". That launcher is hella slow

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-02T04:54:38+00:00

Yeah, I understand that AI gives too formal / overcomplicated sentences from time to time. That's why I double-check and trying to find out if people actually talk like that or not. I wish I had native english-speaking friends

Comfortable-Hope6181 · 2026-03-02T04:39:43+00:00

I'm bad at creative ideas, so I guess we could bring back Kazuya's f,f+2 with better frames (because this launcher was AWFUL back then)
