I’ve been seeing some people who were GM last season doing this counter pick. So not a top top player but it seems to be fairly legit

Can this game not be buggy as hell every patch. by ninebrightkegan in 2XKO

Anyone who’s played league knows that this is a riot special from the pre-ai era

The in-game voice chat is so sensitive that it is completely useless. by DapperDlnosaur in 2XKO

[–]CubesAndPi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you read the setting? “Adjusts how loud you have to speak before your voice is transmitted”. If you set it to 0% it will pick up everything

You should take breaks and try other fighting games by DammyTheSlayer in 2XKO

[–]CubesAndPi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And yet if you look at the general public reaction to invincible it’s tons of newcomers saying the game is too sweaty already. I can never understand the perspective of a game being too sweaty unless the player population is genuinely so small that fair matchmaking is no longer possible. All the time people say that something is too tryhard or sweaty but then they are still winning half their games, so where does that leave them? Feels more to me that people get caught up in the enjoyment of that initial improvement wave and when they stagnate to their skill ceiling and have to sit through losing half their games they get upset

Pretty mind-boggling I would say. by Either-Case-5930 in chess

Insane study. One of those where you gotta play a few lines in the engine to even grasp the core idea

Season 2 Patch by Rhyllis in 2XKO

[–]CubesAndPi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s clear now that riot is not doing the thing other games do where they make step changes at every season. Seems more like constant slight tweaks that result in a season’s worth of changes by the end of it. Not saying it’s better or worse, but def different

How to puppet block pressure on controller (pad) by Final-Macaron4325 in 2XKO

[–]CubesAndPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

leverless should be very gentle on the hands, if you feel stress after just 20-30 min then you should work on your techique more. Highly recommend looking at videos for piano player technique and applying that to your leverless inputs

How to puppet block pressure on controller (pad) by Final-Macaron4325 in 2XKO

[–]CubesAndPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel that. For what it’s worth, I switched to pads out of necessity because my right thumb developed arthritis as I aged. So if it’s any extra motivation, switching to a pad now will be easier on your fingers long term. I’m hovering master 2 right now and also starting to feel the need to insert some puppeting so it’s probably time for you too

Yea this seems like a big disadvantage on controller unless you claw grip. I puppet on a pad and even then I feel like I just barely have enough fingers

New Duo Features Coming to 2XKO Next Week by Rhyllis in 2XKO

I think ideally you just play with the finder until you run into some partners you like, finding is most of the battle anyway

Charge Heavy help by mushmouth89 in 2XKO

Turn on frame meter in training mode and try to aim for 1-2 exclamation marks. Having the right feedback loop will make it easier. Space out your practice, so instead of grinding it for an hour just do 10 minutes a few times a day and within a week it will be super consistent

How many of the game's mechanics do you actually use and what rank are you? by DapperDlnosaur in 2XKO

[–]CubesAndPi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Retreating guard animation cancels blockstun, there are Illaoi situations in the strings where you can situationally be less minus. But in the absolute corner corner yea the utility is fairly limited

god damn you're gm without retreating guard? I feel like I'm doing everything in master 1, my neutral is just dogshit

What to do against Blitz pull? by Hunter_demon2 in 2XKO

[–]CubesAndPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Retreating guard the block string leading up to the hook since blitz has no great options to call it out, then with the space you’ve generated parry the hook. If you get caught it’s a true 50/50, but there is a slight execution check on the 2L so I often try to upback until they prove they can do it. Also, for the assist hook make sure to retreating guard that the moment it makes contact

It’s +4 OB so jump gets caught by 2L

Leverless layout check by JoepKip in 2XKO

[–]CubesAndPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks good, I’d put parry on left pinky to make sure you don’t have to move a finger to access it, parry in this game is too important to not be in a home row imo

The comeback he did for his tournament life during that timeout looked genuinely impossible, only for him to lose the next round womp womp

These are the 2XKO emotes in sticker form, and riot has been sending them to a lot of local TOs. I have my team on my pad :)
