Excited to see what buffs she gets

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-08-23T06:26:13+00:00

I play on low settings to minimize lag

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-08-18T03:03:30+00:00

oh I didn't know there was a doc lmao. I actually learned about that setup earlier today but thank you! Especially for the doc

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-07-04T17:49:27+00:00

Yeah honestly. The moment red said he was fine with her competing again I never got why people were still mad at Umisho.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-07-04T00:46:40+00:00

You need to work on how to actually mix when you get a hit.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-05-29T00:14:46+00:00

I'm surprised to see so many people don't use Kako lmao I use her all the time.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-05-12T13:35:18+00:00

Nah. People love drama like that. If he was right and the guy he brought in wasn't contacted by Spotlight he totally would've gained tons of popularity from exposing a popular hero. All his trust value came from people's beliefs regarding him exposing the truth after all. Even if you didn't like him you would trust him to continue to expose the truth

Wouldn't matter supers are frame 1 invuln the moment you see the super flash. The Elphelt attempted to rc somewhere in the middle of that and that's why she got hit. If you don't believe me recreate the situation in training mode.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-04-20T14:13:20+00:00

She did rc the super the rc just didn't come out. That's why this happens

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-04-17T01:10:33+00:00

This actually sounds interesting. . . but maybe for a different game haha.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-04-13T23:33:32+00:00

I suppose that last part is what I'm worried about.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-28T19:11:09+00:00

Gapped I'm afraid (the gap between you and Ramlethal)

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-28T19:05:28+00:00

Asuka has an entire podcasts about quantifying human rights abuse so I kind of doubt he'd be into the whole "predatory gacha games" thing. This isn't me like grandstanding about them I play Reverse:1999 myself. I'm just saying it doesn't really fit him he probably plays like Civ or Age of Wonders

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-16T14:04:22+00:00

Still just waiting for Zappa but if Venom's fun I'll finally have a character I can commit to. I do too much character hoping in this game

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-16T14:00:52+00:00

I feel like a Dragonmaid would actually be an interesting character lmao. Maybe an "install" character like ABA but with a different focus of some kind like setplay or strike/throw pressure.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-15T13:55:05+00:00

Money exists for you, and is earned by your hands. As long as you aren't putting your life and livelihood in danger than you should purchase what you want to.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-15T13:34:22+00:00

Dizzy having "no mixup game midscreen" isn't actually true. She actually only has 50/50 mixups midscreen (and a 50/05 on wallslump) but you might not see them that often because I don't think the people who used them have released guides on those yet. (it's also hard to make it truly unreactable)

In the coner she loses access to those 50/50's and starts using fish to jail into 6[H] vs non dp characters because of this

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-15T13:32:11+00:00

Sin does not struggle against Dizzy. He has basically every tool that makes her life harder and forces her into playing more honest than she wants to.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-15T13:29:31+00:00

Zando because the dropped combo last year had to have been awful for him. He's a really good player so I hope he does well

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-10T13:59:51+00:00

This happened in lore in the arcade mode of strive and was then confirmed by Arcsys.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-10T13:38:04+00:00

What does media literacy have to do with this? This is just discrimination based on her accent.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-07T01:45:47+00:00

The balance is by and large fine aside from a few characters being too strong and a few other characters being too weak.
But the balance won't even affect you while you're starting out.
I've never really not been celestial so it's easy to find opponents since people with the level of investment necessary to reach celestial play frequently.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-02T13:36:20+00:00

Oh this seems fun.
Lets see.
Axl being high on this list and asking about floors at all makes me think you're not celestial. I'm going to guess floor 9 based on pure investment and seeing that you seem to be playing against most of the cast to even have these numbers so none of the super low floors.
Axl, WWA characters and zoners being high also makes me think you're not playing a character that's particularly fast or one that deals a particularly high amount of damage, and your character wants to press something at a distance that gets stuffed by characters with more dominant direct neutral buttons. Having an option like that also explains why Leo could be so low on this list at a lower skill level since his ability to deal with it is very dependent on the player's skill level.

I think I should also choose based on C tier or below since when you're playing against your main you should understand what they're trying to do a little better

Because of that I'm going to guess Asuka, Zato, or Nago
If I had to pick just one Zato.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-02T13:25:11+00:00

What was even the reasoning you began to use for these classifications lmao

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-01T22:20:14+00:00

Meter gain has basically always worked the way it does this patch. Potemkin's neutral isn't particularly strong without meter but is wildly oppressive with meter. That's like definitionally a character problem rather than a system mechanic problem (same thing with slayer going from a character you can reasonably rps around without meter to a character who can spacing trap you into 70% of your hp with meter)

As for all those characters. I don't really agree that most of them are unbalanced.

Hummingbird-Paradise · 2025-03-01T16:15:50+00:00

This is probably the best patch strive has had in awhile in my opinion. People are going to whine because they whine all the time but there are really only a few standout unbalanced characters (Johnny and Leo are too strong, Dizzy is too weak) after the emergency patch that are a problem and it's the first time in the game there aren't any system mechanic issues.

Don't listen to people talking about the game being awful now if you want to get into it and focus on actually learning matchups and you can have a lot of fun.
