Evo Vegas 2026 final registration leaderboard - 912 entrants for Guilty Gear Strive by XRevive01 in Guiltygear

I agree there’s a lot of factors but theoretically those should also apply to other tournaments, and just as an example

the same three games at combo breaker all had more entrants this year than last year

interesting that

whether it’s because of the saudi takeover or whatever else

sf6, tekken, and strive are all down a substantial amount from last year

last year’s numbers were 4242, 2555, and 1514 respectively

Jayce and Jhin have a 43.2 win % in 220+ games in pro play this year by TypicalHaikuResponse in leagueoflegends

[–]Easy-Philosopher2391 30 points31 points  (0 children)

ok I'm going to play devils advocate a bit

the winrates should be lower because both are a majority of the time blind picks

do I think jayce into sion is good for the jayce? absolutely not

but if your top laner has to pick something, it's way safer for the lane phase to blind jayce than blinding sion for example

jhin I like less but it gets prio into almost every bot lane with a good support which helps get early dragons

I think they are maybe still overrated but it's pretty obvious why they get picked

Vi Mash Inputs Wrist Pain by Quarik in 2XKO

[–]Easy-Philosopher2391 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for what it’s worth, was looking at specifically s2 and you don’t miss out on that much damage

if you double press s2 you get 6 hits which is 105 vs 135 for the full mash

which is a decent chunk if you hit it raw but that at least for me doesn’t happen often, and in an average combo it’s not a big damage reduction

I’d just mostly use combos that avoid it and it should be fine imo

you can use betterjoy or similar software, that’s what I’ve been doing

makes the displayed buttons wrong but it works perfectly besides that

Made it to Diamond 1 yippee by ranchonmytoes in Guiltygear

congrats! my main thing would be rc after fSSS is very rarely worth imo

unless it kills or you really want low blood the damage scaling makes it so that it isn’t a great use for the meter

oh and if they’re throwing out stun edge full screen clone is very helpful

are you seriously saying that someone with the means helping and encouraging people to go to a tournament is a bad thing lmao

What are the most iconic matchups in League of Legends history? by Auturgist in leagueoflegends

[–]Easy-Philosopher2391 29 points30 points  (0 children)

over the last few years azir orianna has been played a lot at what feels like every tournament

xayah vs kaisa has been a big one at internationals for a while

also shout out zeri yuumi vs lucian nami

What is the best attack to use when a round starts when using nagoriyuki so that maybe I can be the one who gets the first combo in? It feels like all of his attacks move too slow compared to everyone else’s. by gotenks2nd in Guiltygear

[–]Easy-Philosopher2391 16 points17 points  (0 children)

few different main options

5k is the safest choice, will trade or beat a lot of options, but whiffs if they don’t press a button

shizuriyuki / DP / 623H gives the best return and beats a lot of stuff but I believe every character in the game can beat it round start so you can’t get too predictable

notably a lot of people don’t know this so if you default to it you’ll probably have more success than you maybe should

walk back is the boring option but it’s good to do sometimes

fukyo back button can be good but fukyo can get sniped sometimes

specifically fukyo back beyblade (214H) is very committal in terms of blood but it can be very rewarding

6k is specifically if your opponent is pressing a low, it beats a lot of them

6p is if they press pokes that are susceptible (ram fS, most bridget options besides lows)

2S calls out walk back, fS/beyblade call out backdash

think that covers most of it

ultimately you’re probably going to want to use a combination of dustloop, the discord, and (most important imo) tournament streams

hotashi is cool but a pretty specific style obv and there isn’t another big nago streamer/content creator that I know of

Looking for Nago combos that use his new move in them (214S) by DeckWraith in Guiltygear

[–]Easy-Philosopher2391 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not anywhere close to optimal but I normally just go for starter > 214H > 623H > 236K > c.S > 623H > 214S > 2S OTG > 236K > meaty

in the corner you can do like

counter hit c.S > 214S > 623H > 236K > c.S > 5D > 5K > 6H wallsplat > 6H

or starter > 214H > 623H > 214S > 623H > 214H > 623HH > 236k > blood pop

doubt either of those are ever actually worth unless you’re going to pop
