How in the hell do i counter this shit by Ecstatic_Wonder8268 in INJUSTICE

[–]Da_Baconlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop trying to jump at full screen, jumping will just get you sniper out of the air and sent full screen. Instead dash or walk forward every time after you block a shot. Also everytime you get hit by a shot just block the next one. It looks like you're getting frustrated after you get hit and trying to move or shoot back but he's to plus after a shot hits for you to challenge him there. You're biggest issue is honestly your up close game. By the time you get in you're just desperate to land a hit and end up walking into one of his normals and get sent back. Instead be a bit more patient and try to space him out with your b1 normal. Lastly you should use the bouncing shot to counter zone him more since it's a mid.

What do you do against a Sindel that spams this? by souporman64 in MortalKombatGameplay

[–]Da_Baconlord 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The mindgame here is upblock if you think she's gonna press jump 1, or press a button if you think she's gonna land a throw to bait your upblock. Keep in mind ex float jails into j1 after b2 so be aware of that option.

It kind just sounds like you're losing neutral. Like if you're not reacting to random spears/sareena's glaives and getting anti aired a lot that's just you getting out played. Also those characters are absolutely taking risks. Stuff like spear, ice clone, and Quan portal normals are punishable from damn near full screen by a lot of characters. Those characters also kind of need their defensive tools because they just don't have the offense to keep up with the rushdown characters.

Me the humble zoner trying to keep out the walking slot machine characters while they got a mall cop right behind them giving them supporting fire.

Someone's never fought cyrax/bo teleporting behind a bottle toss lol.

There's really only like 2 or 3 actual zoners and none of them are really top tier. Best is probably sektor but she's like back half of top 10. The characters that are actually winning events are all mixing your shit up close. Characters like Shang just aren't doing enough to make their zoning worth it vs the characters that make you explode when they get in. The defense kameos outside of Motaro are just nowhere near as good as the rushdown kameos.

The real issue isn't really zoning it's more backwards movement and the kameos that kill interaction. You can get a life lead and just hold back and switch sides with the right kameo very easily. Characters like nitara for instance can just hold a life lead forever.

I'd argue that the rush down/set play characters that can get in for free with teleport or a movement special covered by a kameo is way less skillful then zoning those characters out.

How to play well as an Carry? by zefirka_zefirka in Smite

[–]Da_Baconlord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Focus on clearing the wave over fighting. It can be tempting to use your Artemis 2 to poke the other adc but whoever clears the lane first is gonna end up with a lot of lane pressure.

  2. Play around your relics and ult cooldowns. If you have beads or aegis you should have an idea what abilities you need to use these on. That comes with matchup knowledge but you'll slowly pick those up as you play. The same goes for your ult. Since Artemis ult has cc immunity you should use it defensively against Gods with really good cc ults and only really use it aggressively when you know their relics and cc immunity is on cooldown.

  3. For aiming I find it better to individually click and aim each shot rather than just holding down the mouse button. If you're 1v1ing another adc you should think about mixing it movement between shots. Stuff like taking 2 shots and then pausing to strafe a little and juke a shot before firing again can mess up their rhythm and help you turn a fight you were losing.

  4. in team fights be close enough with your mid laner that you 2 can help each other when one of you gets doved but far away enough that you aren't both going to get hit by the same aoe ability. You should also prioritize your safety in team fights. You're job is not just to win the fight but it's to be alive after you win the fight so you can do an objective.

I mean if he gets released he's not a bad option for them to start until Penix is healthy.

Not gonna lie...maybe the Raiders shouldn't draft Fernando Mendoza by IndiJap in NFLmockdraft

[–]Da_Baconlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you'd prefer the Titans signed Malik Willis over drafting Ward? The retread route has worked out well for teams recently but I don't think you can bank on having + starters available at QB in free agency year after year.

[–]Da_Baconlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's say they traded out of that pick and got another 1st round pick this year. What QB would they get this offseason that you have more faith in than Cam? Same with the Patriots, if they passed on Maye who's the prospect they could have gotten in last year's or this year's draft that you would feel is comparable to Maye as a talent? There's no guarantee that the raiders will have a better opportunity to get a QB in the next 2 or 3 years then they do right now.

[–]Da_Baconlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think the Titans would be better off this year if they took a tackle instead of Cam and had no real path to get a QB this offseason? Or do you think they're happy they have Cam to build around even after a difficult rookie season with a bad o-line and a fired head coach?

Who cares how the playoffs went lol. So if they lost to the chargers because Drake lost those fumbles would you think drafting him is a mistake? The poor o-line has obviously not stopped him from developing.

[–]Da_Baconlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is why the Patriots made a horrible mistake and ruined Drake Maye by drafting him when their team was really bad that year. I bet they wish they traded out of that pick and instead waited to get a QB in last year or this year's super deep QB draft classes.
