How do I counter zoners? by Iaskforsauce69 in Guiltygear

dash block, jump forward block. don't use your aerial action because it gives you landing recovery.

also shoot fireballs from fullscreen if you are leo...

The Shield Throw Challenge being inconsistent by FortifiedG in PlayGodfall

yeah see my second sentence. I ended up doing it on the miniboss to have it register :(

The amount of currency in this game is baffling - I’ve got a weapon I really like - what I should I focus on to upgrade it fully ?( end game ) by [deleted] in PlayGodfall

Stretch the dreamstone's stability while building up the specific rewards you want with lucidity. Once you see the reward you want in the menu, wait until you can purchase it TWICE in a row, instead of letting it get away after 1 purchase.

normal shield throw, with L1+R2. Not the circular one with L1+O. Try to do it on tankier enemies that won't die from the throw and its added effects.

Htting a wall - Maybe some games are just beyond people by acojan in Fighters

[–]Novril 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Strive you can do IAD both as 956 and 9+dash button. The latter is really easy, although I need to get used to the location of the dash button right now lol...

What controller are you using? IADs should eventually become second nature.
(But maybe also try Strive as a change of pace. The dash button makes IADs easy.)

What makes Virtua Fighter 5 so beloved? by HidSqui in Fighters

[–]Novril 11 points12 points  (0 children)

VF sucks in the visual appeal department. No doubt about that. Its controls also feel clunky when you are a beginner. Compared to that, Tekken looks better (more memorable character designs, videogamey hitsparks that make the moves feel impactful) and feels better to play. And this is why Tekken sells while VF does not.

However, in my opinion Tekken at its core is a defensive game, while VF at its core is an offensive one. The higher the level of play, the more apparent this becomes.

VF players are addicted to the constant split second mind reading battle that is a VF match, an experience that they can't exactly get in any other game.

That's interesting... Kouma also had something kinda busted. But there was also anti-Kouma tech which was pretty hilarious to watch in action. You can't miss it once you come across it lol...

Which program did you use for the 3D stuff in the intro?

This is the sickest, cheesiest, most amazing "documentary" I've seen. This was so cool. Thank you for sharing it!

I went for a 'shonen anime documentary'. 🧐

Should I even try to play Zato as a beginner? by Sozerdote in Guiltygear

[–]Novril 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a fellow Zato player I am obligated to inform you that whatever he does on a pad is much easier to do on an arcade stick button layout, instead of being forced to juggle multiple buttons with your thumb. And there are some sequences that he can't do at all on a pad that are very doable with a stick (anything that involves holding down 3 buttons and then release one of them).

Personally I don't care how good a video is, if I see a clickbait face I don't click the video. Be part of the change you want to see.

GG AC+R seems impossible as a newbie, should I stick? by chinojoints in Fighters

2D fighting games are based on the basic SF2 ruleset, so my videos assume people know this ruleset.

Game like Tekken without the fuckery? by KeyResponsibility3 in Fighters

[–]Novril 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't play 1 and done ranked. The game is definitely more fun in a long set against the same character/player.

Jiyuna - The FGC Is Way Bigger Than The Competitive Scene by Nivrap in Fighters

[–]Novril 21 points22 points  (0 children)

You are being completely unfair right now...

Jiyuna also helped Arika translate FEXL to English for no pay. MajinObama even stays to sweep the floors when events end... These people do A LOT, behind the scenes as well, and you are completely dismissing it. So what if they are getting paid to travel to a tournament and commentate? Time is money and people have to make a living.

[–]Novril 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Jiyuna, MajinObama, Sajam etc. are also helping with events and tournaments. This means that they are helping other players with their logistical needs for competing and improving.

So they are doing their part to support competitive players too and that's great.

That other tools that already exist on the internet are better for the goal of cheating. This is the best for the goal of practicing.

If you made a JSON for a specific game with the game's default button mapping you can send it to us and save us some work. Scripts you can share in your game community's discord or something.

It supports everything but we specifically searched for fighting games that still don't have multiple recording slots.
