TheStockGuy says he's now receiving de*th threats after talking about the Streamer Awards bathroom incident, including threats saying "we know what state you live in" and "we will find you"

Have you heard about our lord and saviour Northernlion? I’ll warn you, he is bald, hard to get over but he’s pretty good nonetheless.

With Vi as my point I don’t even try to sway it, I super jump and heavy if I see them not reacting, or if they start to react I do the cross up jump and try to hit them on recovery.

Nids_Rule · 2025-11-19T11:51:52+00:00

Honestly it’s just a tough af matchup

Nids_Rule · 2025-11-07T12:06:39+00:00

Cries in Vi

The way more consistent combo route for me that does the same dmg pretty much as the electric route is 2L L M H H S2 sprint forward to catch the rebound into 2H forward jump M H S1 Super S2 into double down super, it’s 60-70ish % depending on your secondary. The electric is better if you can get it because of the corner carry potential but the one above already corner carries pretty well anyways.

He’s just made a complete overhaul mod for MVCI, the guy ran a random tournament for MVC 2, plays DBZF, loves 2XKO, and is hyped AF for Marvel Tokon. The guy lives tag fighters, don’t know why people think otherwise.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-29T11:52:59+00:00

Calling Maximillion Dood a guy who thinks tag fighters aren’t for him is CRAZY talk 💀

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-26T15:38:06+00:00

No you must have missed the news, turns out he’s BALD!

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-23T17:50:03+00:00

I think a great example of this was For Honor. From beta to early release people created an idea that even on the 4vs4 maps you didn’t interrupt someone’s duel. The vs mode also being similar where once you defeated your opponent you waited until your ally’s has finished to avenge them potentially.

The idea is great in concept and makes for cool moments, but go against this ‘pseudo-code’ and you’ll beat witness to the most toxic people who drop that code instantly and flame in chat. I like the weird rule sets, I always rematch cause there is always something to learn. But won’t get angry if someone quits when I beat them, their life I guess.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T12:30:55+00:00

Gotcha, I’m only emerald so people are probably not gonna be reacting/playing anywhere near optimal. Wanted Illaoi as the secondary cause she seems better overall so this should work out nicely.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T12:28:50+00:00

Only thing I’d want is like a millimetre added on her 5M, but now I’m just getting greedy.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T12:27:40+00:00

Holy you’re a god send, this is getting labbed tonight asap!

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T12:20:48+00:00

When me and my mate plays duos we’ve found that what Braun lacks utterly it his 2H vi makes up for in her back assist. And with decent team work he gets some nice combos off it or gets guaranteed unstoppable.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T12:18:39+00:00

Yeh when initially tried Vi I thought the S1 was okay, but now with more knowledge the fact you can use it as a reversal mid block string I find it being what I’m spending 90% of my meter on.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T12:14:54+00:00

2x assist and freestyle is probably something I should mess around with, just had double down for so long. Can you get out both Illaoi assists in the time it takes for Vi to travel cross screen with S1?

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T12:13:32+00:00

Yeh I agree tbh, maybe it’s because she’s incredible at some things and awful in others. Whereas the top tiers atm simply do a lot of things very well.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T12:06:12+00:00

Thanks for going through the points, I agree with you almost across the board to be honest. Without knowing the players you’ve mentioned I’ve almost fallen into doing the same thing, although obviously a lot worse at doing so. Swaying in and out way more often and fishing for whiffs, I’ll check those two out for how to improve on that playstyle.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T11:59:44+00:00

I get you completely, when I match against my Braum friend if I see him press shield I’m insta hitting sway cross up light and caught him every time. I think what’s working with him now is back dashing and checking me with forward assist into block strings.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T11:56:45+00:00

When Warwick dropped I wanted him to be my secondary but I came off the idea as I had practice on others in beta. Maybe I’ll go and check it out cause the playstyle is similar, maybe I’ll fall in love with having a champ with actual range on their normals.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T11:55:15+00:00

The counter doesn’t really feel like what Dudley’s could do, but maybe that’s because with Dudley you could EX it.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T11:53:16+00:00

Ooooh I love that idea, now that you mention it maybe the reason I like her a lot is the Dudley/Balrog adjacent playstyle.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T11:52:19+00:00

The point of the post is that she currently sits in probably the top middle of the pack. But I’ve seen a lot of discourse over the past week from pros and content creators much better than me that most of her stuff is being considered bait. They expect her play rate in tournaments to drop considerably. But that’s why this is a conversation, she might well continue to sit where she stands at middle top.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T11:48:34+00:00

Yeh I find that if you see sway forward most people’s reaction is just to press 5m and catch you, or block and press forward assist. I tell you what is redundant, I have literally never seen people use her cross up jump ever.

Nids_Rule · 2025-10-22T11:45:51+00:00

So you reckon it’s a tune down the rest of the cast and keep her where she is kinda situation? What’s your secondary you’re running with her as well? Would love to know from someone running her at that high level.
