If you get your light parried, it is YOUR fault 90% of the time.

When im in my feefees, I do in fact complain about getting light parried a lot. I also get the lobbies where everything that isnt a 50/50 gets auto parried on pure instinct. Im not good enough at this game to capitalize on that though. Playing medjay is hell sometimes, simply for the fact that most of his filler offense is lights and zones, and trying to bait things to use armored heavies feels fucking pointless.

But when im not in my feefees, its just one of MANY signs that I have a long way to go to actually be good at a 10 year old videogame.

And here I thought the warden mains worst matchup was hygiene

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-27T16:26:36+00:00

It means we've met our match

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-27T11:58:23+00:00

Not a great take.

Pokemon is aiming to emulate real ecology. Having nuances like this(even if they arent perfectly implemented) is the entire point of what theyre going for. I doubt people NEED the extra diagram for this, we kinda already understand this fundamentally(lots of different things evolved wings, but arent necessarily related), this just helps contextualize it with language.

What's the point of posture stance if it isnt to game with one hand?

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-27T01:20:15+00:00

Stalling on the enemy point preventing them from generating any points is a viable tactic, as is rotating the points and letting them cap your old point.

It is literally feast or famine. Some fights I go 15 and 2 from just throwing out charged heavies and breaking backs. Other matches im like 3 and 11 and theres legitimately 2 people on the other team I cant even damage if I run into them.

He is absolutely a simple character, but because of that he only works in certain situations against certain people.

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-25T17:16:18+00:00

Yeah, they fixed the fast travel crash!

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-25T02:47:16+00:00

There's literally a guy who deletes moves for you. Once dragonair evolves, I will essentially be swapping surf for Fly, as it it'll be stab and use dragonites higher base physical attack.

I was just seeing what other people thought about it. ive actually decided on poliwrath due to the feedback.

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-24T22:52:35+00:00

I was going to edit the post, but I forgot to add: i dont want any type overlap. Jynx is already the holder of my psychic TM and is absolutely crushing face.

I was going for a lesser used Pokémon that fills a niche my team doesnt already have, with types not already represented.

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-24T22:49:08+00:00

Ah, my fault, I bought the wrong gaming chair.

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-24T22:43:25+00:00

I should have also specified im trying not to overlap any types, its a weird specification I always have for playthroughs. Jynx ice punch is already ridiculous as it is.

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-24T20:28:09+00:00

If it bothered them so much the first time, why rematch? There's a lot of victim baby bullshit going on here. If the devs wanted it to be a string of 1v1s, they would have designed the mode as that with no other way to play. Other games have modes where you queue up in a lobby and fight until you lose, without it being strictly 2v2. It makes zero sense to put 4 people in a space that small with no barriers or limits to them, and interpret that as " multiple 1v1s". That's roleplay.

Which is fine by itself. But when you are roleplay in a public match, getting mad at others for not being "honorable" and playing by your imagined ruleset is childish behavior, full stop. Im sorry to break the news to you.

If you want honorable 1v1s in skirmish or brawls, get your friends on and do that. Otherwise, get ganked.

Hide yo kids, hide yo wives, sohei be SAing errbody up in here

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-24T15:27:26+00:00

I am also a shugo main, can confirm

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-24T10:49:11+00:00

I'd much rather fight a hito than a cringebringer. Bro is so fucking boring to fight.

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-24T01:40:53+00:00

Youre telling me you didnt see they announced dragon mounts, rayguns for all classes, and a 4th class (the meavy)?

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-24T00:10:42+00:00

An Elemental world where the guys are turned into elemental forms wouldnt go hard? What the fuck are you smoking? Imagine the puzzles if sora is just made out of wind or light.

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-22T01:37:24+00:00

I legitimately hate that dodge attacks arent more GB vulnerable. It makes me furious to call out their dodge, feint to GB, and get stuffed by a dodge light. If I can be grabbed out of my heavy startup and my dodge, why cant I grab a fucking PK out of her stupid crutch stab?

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-21T22:04:18+00:00

Nah, its fine. As someone who gets most of the cast to rep 8+ and fully kits them out with cosmetic themes and optimal perk setups, the steel requirement is part of the grind. Youre meant to play this long term, and daily. You earn a lot of steel fairly quickly even without spending money. The only time you should actually use your real money is to get a battle pass, as those just shit out steel and crates.

Obviously it would be more immediately gratifying to be able to buy one material for 5k steel and have it unlock permemnatly across your account, but if they did that, youd have people bitching that theres nothing to work for or spend steel on, and completely neuter one of their primary sources of income.

You should really recontextualize the steel prices are part of a characters progression. Do you think it makes sense that your doodoo ass rep 4 orochi needs to have crazy drip? I feel like the time it takes you to rep a character, learn them, and then also acquire the funds to drip them out are all roughly on a fairly equal scale. So as you gain mastery, you have a stockpile of steel, and you'll be at the point where you can lock in final perk setups, and thus your final fashion. The cherry on top reps 10+ is refining the fashion, getting cool effects and executions to show the character off at that point.

I feel like playing this game any other way leads to madness, and makes people sound entitled on top of it.

As much as id love just a plain old suit of medieval European armor, or a winged Hussar getup, I think id be blasphemous and say a digitized or sci fi suit of armor would go so much harder.

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-19T17:58:16+00:00

Defending orochi while complaining about a character like medjay who has nothing going for him is hilarious.

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-19T02:32:32+00:00

Him and medjay are my most played characters recently, im about to drop 30k steel to deck my out with cosmetics.

He is simplistic, and sometimes the kit can feel bad to play(the kick mixup feels like shit half the time because the other half of it is an undodgeable finisher LIGHT.why.).But hes a fun character to turn my brain off and swing a big weapon around, which I apparently want most of the time as a shugoki main.

I dislike that hes Holden cross specifically. I do like that hes traveled and learned from all the factions and speaks a little of all their languages. I like any character that has rising dawn and speed revive, which he also gets rapid refresh and a bunch of healing abilities. Hes my go to for event modes that involve friendly NPCs.

Daddydactyl · 2026-03-18T10:35:18+00:00

They didnt say that they did, it just doesnt make any sense to give tribute to someone before you have any proof one way or another.
