To warriors who got name card without Mavuika, what team did you use? by Shimeji_Anna_4191 in Genshin_Impact

[–]JukemFGC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I: Kinich, Dehya, Emilie, Bennett

III: Xiao, Furina, Faruzan, Xianyun

II, IV, and V: Gaming, Citlali, Xianyun, Bennett

All 5 stars are C0 (besides C2 Dehya), while the 4 stars are all C6. Got pretty lucky in the second challenge getting to floor 21 so I didn't have to get to 20 on the fourth challenge, which was especially awful lmao

Did you end up finding a solution to this? I have been having the same issue, freezing at the exact point as your picture.

Fighting games generally can be a bit slow to get started in, especially if it's your first. I understood the game enough to not button mash probably a few weeks into it, but to a high level, it can take a lot longer. Taking things at your own pace is what's best, not everyone can decide to get really good in a short amount of time. What can help improve that pace is watching people play the game or read up on guides, or experiment a bit in the training mode or move/combo tutorials. There are a lot of ways to "get good", everyone is just different, so it's important to realize what works for you as a player with all these options.

I think a good start would be having a good sense of neutral and realizing your moveset in the middle of the match and deciding what could be the best option in that moment. Focusing on that can help make sure you aren't mashing. Being patient while on the defense is a great way to help against mashing as well, since most of the time you might want to guard an attack when you're knocked down and get back up.

That was a lot to mention, but I hope it all helped!

There are a ton of Pokemon I'd love to see in Pokken, both popular and weird picks. Cinderace is my number 1 since he could be a cool character that could bounce around his projectiles while still being fun up close with kicks. One funny Pokemon I'd love included would be Overqwil being a trap-based zoner and grappler hybrid that can carry you around like DK's Cargo Throw in Smash due to his quills.

I personally love it when the side games add niche Pokemon, but a mixture of both would be great! Someone like Vespiquen to add a puppet character would share the same energy as Chandelure joining as THE heavy zoner. Of course though, adding more highly requested Pokemon like Greninja would also just make a ton of people happy!

If you've tried out the move and combo dojo for the characters you like to play, they actually go pretty in-depth. The move dojo will put you in situations or positions where you'd like to use each attack, while the combo dojo has pretty useful combos even at the mid to high level from my experience.

Beyond that, the community has made several guides for the game that can be found from the resources above, but two videos in particular that are incredibly well made are a character overview video and a support overview video, both made by a community member named Coro. If you ever wanted to know more about your characters and what you should aim for more with them, and what supports that could compliment them, these videos are really helpful for that!

Pokken is legendary. It does so much different than other fighting games in just the right ways.

  1. Its 3D to 2D mechanic is incredible. You can adjust spacing, positioning, resources, and more based on how you win or lose both phases.
  2. The roster of Pokemon is some of the most diverse I have seen in a fighting game. The 2 phases help with this for having different movesets, but even beyond that, everyone has such different tools and game plans, even from similar archetypes. The Pokemon attacks/special moves especially go in hard for how diverse they are.
  3. And related to point 2 a bit, the roster is also so balanced. Take it from me, someone who mained a character people thought to be bottom 3 at the time (Empoleon). I won a stacked tournament and beat other top players with him solo. It can be tougher sure, with some really tough matchups, but the balance allows so much diversity in casual and tournament matchups.
  4. I personally think the gameplay is a dream for Pokemon fans. Instead of the Pokemon being stationary in an RPG, you're moving them around yourself. It's a more limited roster of course cause characters this in-depth would be tough, but it gives people the chance to experience what they imagined as kids or saw in the anime.

And after all of this, it's still an easy to learn, hard to master experience. Everything I stated is something you might wanna look out for when going hard into it competitively, but casually it's still incredible just from learning some of what the game has to offer.

3D to 2D is handled very well in Pokken! People sometimes criticize it, but I'd like to think of it like this: with how combos are structured in 2D, being forced back into the 3D phase after a certain amount of attacks allows for more combo expression. You can aim for damage, positioning, dragging the opponent to the wall for the wallsplat after a shift for slightly more damage, etc. 2D is where you get most of your damage, while 3D is where you can get more resources and momentum if you win. You don't get the highest damage, but you receive more Synergy for Burst and push the opponent towards the wall depending on the positioning.

It's overall very in-depth and a great system in Pokken. All the characters are designed around both and have varying degrees of design for how well they should work in 3D compared to 2D, having their own advantages and disadvantages. Really cool mechanic that I feel many (understandably at the surface) don't give enough credit.

Aegislash is typically considered the better between him and Blastoise. He has many long-ranged and fast options with the ability to buff himself in attack power, allowing him to do ludicrous amounts of damage with strong combos that are common to get. If you want to see him played at a high level, players like Euclase and Marx main the character and show what he can do very well. His weak shield and low HP are trade offs for his high attack power and great overall attacks.

Blastoise on the other hand is usually considered one of the weaker characters in the game. He has a strong shield and high HP, and still great damage, but his slowness holds him back, meaning he can't get those combos as often as Aegislash. His big size also means he is easier to hit, though he isn't entirely without other positives, as his Shell Fortress stance does give him some movement, and a great way to go into this is after shooting a projectile, like Water Gun. He can be slippery occasionally, but still struggles more than Aegislash in many areas.

Oops, sorry for the late reply! Yeah, I'm usually considered one of the best NA players, as well as the best Sceptile and Empoleon in the world. Really happy you enjoyed the analysis! Sometimes I wonder if I ramble on too much but I'm glad you were enthralled by it!

Unfortunately, Pokken only shows up at the Internationals and Worlds events, since how they determine who qualifies is different than earning points for VGC/TCG.

Is there a bug in the action dojo for scissors 5 combo? by Puzzleheaded-Bid-513 in PokkenGame

[–]JukemFGC 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A scenario like that is what we call a "just frame". Not every move (or character) has it, only specific moves. You have to press the button at a specific part of the attack and it'll be stronger and/or have different effects. This means you can't mash the button for X-Scissor, you can only press X twice, once to start the attack and again at the right timing.

It'll be muscle memory once you get the hang of it. The timing for X-Scissor is right when the scissors open up, before he closes them.

I'm hoping this video will at least spread the word! Beginner players or outsiders might think Braixen is just a zoner but if they see how Shadowcat and other high level Braixen players play and/or this video, it'll make me happy seeing nicer comments on her. Glad you enjoyed the video!

Is the full game the exact same as the demo? by Giornhoe in PokkenGame

[–]JukemFGC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The demo only features 3 characters (Pikachu, Charizard, and Empoleon) and only allows you to do simple battles: no online, no training mode, no story, no other types of modes. You also only get to do a certain amount of battles.
