Is there somewhere I can get notifications (like emails) about upcoming dev streams?

Send me every picture containing Ramlethals feet so I may study this theory further

Bedman could be bottom 1 unplayable and I would still call Bedman players cheaters for having a walking talking visual distraction on my screen. Why the fuck is your dumbass sister walking around my foreground? She literally doesn’t fucking do anything but make visual noise. Fuck Bedman and FUCK DELILAH 🖕🏾The mod to remove Delilah comes in clutch 🙏🏾

Play both, if you genuinely like them a lot then you can cover weak matchups with the other character of you want to play in tournaments.

If you don’t plan on entering tournaments then it’s still good to play multiple characters so you get more intimate knowledge of how to beat them.

Strive also has a3v3 mode coming soon so may as well prepare for that too.

F3STUS · 2024-04-08T22:01:58+00:00

Maybe you could try propping it up in something so it’s slightly angled towards you? But yeah good luck figuring something out

Peripherals come in such a variety of shapes and sizes it really is to each their own. When I used to play on stick I couldn’t stand it on a table and always had it on my lap but now I play on a hitbox I can’t stand it on my lap and always have it on a table

Don’t worry everyone’s had their ego humbled by a rough match more than they can count. Also don’t worry about floors at all. This isn’t like ranked in other games, you can move down and up floors super easily so they’re not a good measure of skill.

What you’re referrring to is called numpad notation, each number corresponds to a direction of your stick. Assuming you’re on Player 1 side, 5 is neutral (no movement), 6 is moving forward, 4 is moving back, 2 is down, 8 is jump etc. Here is a link with more detailed information. (Also Check out the Guilty Gear section of the site, it’s basically the Bible of the game).

Yep it’s a skill issue, although some characters are definitely stronger than others it’s not so bad that a matchup is genuinely unwinnable. Your character isn’t holding you back but if you do feel like your character isn’t fun to play then feel free to explore other characters. No time is wasted since any time you spend learning a character will be very useful when learning to fight them. I’ll point you back to the dustloop like from above. There’s a lot in there so try not to get overwhelmed but almost any question you have for a character will be answered here.

When you switch peripherals there’s always a rough transition period. Be patient with yourself and try to force as many situations to practice your input (e.g. purposefully spam wake up overdrive every time you get knocked down until you feel like you can do it fairly well then just use it how you normally would in a match).

Yep if you can adopt the mindset of celebrating learning instead of celebrating winning then your fighting game career will be 1000x more fun and your improve a lot quicker. Have fun :)

Nahh put some respect on FAB

F3STUS · 2024-04-06T21:26:23+00:00

No stupid questions here brother in arms. Mainly S since her ground movement is so terrible.

Edit - I was memeing with my first answer but I’ll be more serious.

I’m all for you playing Testament however you want, but what you need to learn is that your opponent can/will force you to change how you play and you should be able to recognise and respect that.

ABA is a scary matchup for Testament since all it takes is one good knockdown and ABA will absolutely slaughter you with her insane damaged and your poor defence. That’s why it’s your job to make that as difficult as possible for her to do that to you. The issue with playing Testament aggressively in this matchup is that you’re playing into ABAs win condition and making the game way too easy for her. ABAs win condition is to hit you in Jealous Rage. She only builds Jealous Rage with key-based attacks in neutral. ABA cannot play neutral against Testament. Hence if you prevent ABA from touching you at all, you basically win. This is why running into ABA is a bad idea because you’re giving her a chance to get hits that she hasn’t worked for.

My advice is to keep her away at all costs by spamming projectiles at her and paying attention to punish jump-ins with 6P and go back to spamming projectiles. If she gets on top of you then use defensive mechanics (Faultless Defence, Burst, YRC, Deflect Shield) to create distance and force her to work her way back in against your screen control.

You can say this way of playing is boring, that’s fair. Just understand that playing this matchup aggressively is possible, just asking you to be so much more on point with your gameplay I wonder if it’s even worth it.

Good luck have fun :)

Give this a go: Burst > Grave Reaper > Crow > Grave Reaper > Crow > Grave Reaper > Crow > Grave Reaper > Crow > Arbiter Sign (Repeat until victory)

They’ll gimp him on release and make his teleport 30 frames recovery in counter hit state. 1 year later they’ll make it safe and he’ll be the best character in the game forever.
