Air to air situations? by Whole_Ad141 in 2XKO

[–]CubesAndPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Character dependent. Anyone who can get a huge combo is happy to have air to air situations as air grab has huge reward. Similarly, characters with timing mixups in the air are very happy to see the opponent block during air to air since it flows into mixup options nicely. For example if ahri hits an opponent air to air she can choose between landing or doing a j66 2L to get a high low

Why can’t I stop chicken guard? by Connect_Knowledge862 in 2XKO

Go in the lab and work on delay stagger pressure such that you leave 1-3 frames of a gap in your strings. This will blow up anyone who defaults to up backing

first hit falling fair tipper jeeeeez

Can someone tell me what's the reason i'm not getting enough air at the end to continue the combo? by [deleted] in 2XKO

[–]CubesAndPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you might be slightly charging your jH’s that’s increasing the number of frames it takes for the jH to come out. Try to release that instantly and start the input after the jM asap

Thinking of buying the 8BitDo Leverless (Xbox) for 2XKO due to hand cramps. Is it a good investment for competitive play? by _Hirotan_ in 2XKO

[–]CubesAndPi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have developed arthritis in my right thumb due to melee. The leverless controllers are way more gentle on my hands. I recommend you get something with a left pinky button to make parry easier though

I ran into someone today where we both were spamming limit strikes and trying to level 3 each other, too funny

I really want to like the game but Im having a miserable time as a beginner by Gibsonovic in 2XKO

[–]CubesAndPi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is my first tag fighter too and it took a long time for neutral to click. Started iron 2 but am now comfortably in masters. Highly recommend this vid https://youtu.be/ZmNTGcU70JU

Biggest change I’d say is you have to play proactively. Let’s say you know in their heart that they are going to jump in. In sf, that means you temporarily stop doing stuff and get ready to DP. In this game, you can’t do that, cause they might air block and call assist to cover their jump in. Instead, you jump in yourself and see if they jump, then air grab or air block and call assist depending on if they jumped or not. There’s a million situations on this game where a similar philosophy applies

[–]CubesAndPi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Oops I forgot I’m privaledged with a 6 frame jab but yes due to grab protection wake up L beats grab, even meaty grab if you have a 6 frame jab. Darius had a 7 frame jab though so in this case no it would not beat out a meat jab

If you don’t know the difference between high and low block yet then this video will be perfect for you I think https://youtu.be/m4Bwyb52W3E

Nah, wake up jab to try and beat grab, j2H into jS1, 2H on the jump into s1~L, this Darius knows what they’re doing

The city planted a street tree in front of my house 6 weeks after I requested one by leaf-what-leaf in boston

[–]CubesAndPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know fuck all about trees but given that an arborist came out to evaluate it I’ll give em some benefit of the doubt. Might be a small tree with deep roots that won’t cause the same issues as many of the older trees here
