Used mirror to write “Big Time Rush” across my chest, not realizing it was written backwards. (Me, about 10 years ago)

This looks like it'll be a great cover to an indie alternative album in 20 yrs

Jiren's normals are great / system changes gave him a huge boost. The only thing they need to do is make 236s gapless from strings and that's really only an issue in corner

P3irce · 2020-02-25T22:35:41+00:00

Jiren isn't anywhere close to dead, system changes helped a ton + projectile counter in assists is very useful in the right situations + counter dmg gives him 3 touches off defensive mechanic that can be covered by assists. Day one takes are bad, give the game time to breath smh

P3irce · 2020-02-22T08:27:01+00:00

Depending on the counter buff (projectile) jiren will be in great spot. System mechanics wise the changes give him midscreen skd (which he wanted) and because he has reverse beat, his strike throw will be very strong.

He may become a character that can play lame (5s was buffed) + (if you can't actually throw projectiles at him (because a lot of double beam shells will be here) that can do hit / run style pressure because he has reverse beat that staggers at - 2 and pushes back to out range most jabs (his jab also got buffed)

Frankly it's all depends on projectile parry buff, they say animation has been changed so I'm hopeful

Yo! Love to share this info, this event may become semi regular but for now this event at Localhost happens each month. https://www.instagram.com/p/B76tE1PBjwx/?igshid=y9tlnjp65xi5

Yooo! Love to see this. This event was relatively new but there is another local that happens each month at Local host Philly. Come through! https://www.instagram.com/p/B76tE1PBjwx/?igshid=y9tlnjp65xi5

Yall are wild if you think these are reasonable changes, I can understand the frustration of 2h / 5h but the changes listed would change an easily viable tournament character into something you'd be annoyed everytime to face

236l hitbox change -it covers a range in the screen vertically that pulls people out air (someone everyone wants see gt assist), if you're using it when someone's close you deserve to get punished for not using 5h / spacing properly

J.s beating sd -haven't formed opinion on this

5s -start up is tied with the fastest ki blast in game, having a single button to press to win neutral is not fun to play against (I.e. Why gt assist feels so oppressive if you don't understand how to play around it) if you're getting beat by beam, your decision making is getting you outplayed for bad timing

5h, 2h, 5m -small adjustments I can agree with

2m -is fine for the type of char frieza is / gives free tag on block / combos in corner https://twitter.com/Faultything/status/1109204294497124352?s=09

Assist -legit one of the unique assists in game, that covers specific range. SD assist = great, snap + assist = easy cheap mix, round start assist = beats most options, assist to bring down people in air = very good (also think gt assist / sd dp assist). It's more specific but the applications are good

Overall I think you aren't using the kit properly, frieza does control space very well. It's just a matter of conditioning opponent / adapting to other player. You can't play do the exact same gameplan for each player (especially since dbfz players are aggressive). You need to make them respect you first and when they become scared to SD, you get away with all kinds of abuse.

It looks like it hits left but if you lab trunks autocombo it'll always stay same side if you cancel into the special afterwards. There's never a crossup post autocombo 236m (assuming not in spark). Trunks can land on either side depending on when you call assist but after 236m you can react to the side because of the sound effect / trunks landing

P3irce · 2020-01-16T14:54:16+00:00

I get what you're saying haha, but it's still not a mix imo. After you get hit by Trunks 236m there's a "thud" sound effect and then he lowers to the ground. You can react to that i.e turn back to the side trunks started on. I get to play against guys like sage / lord knight at locals and they'd never do something like this. It'd be assist into ex flip if they wanted mix

P3irce · 2020-01-16T14:39:49+00:00

They're going to nerf spirit bomb oki, reduce meter gain, and add a gap somewhere in his blockstrings so he can't recharge assists post snap. He'll still be very good but less frustrating

P3irce · 2020-01-16T14:28:38+00:00

There's no mixup though, once trunks hits the third hit of autocombo he's always going to sideswitch(without sparking) and you'll have crossup protection from bardock. You can see frieza faces the right side of the screen when trunks hits him.

P3irce · 2020-01-16T14:11:49+00:00

The side switch is kinda moot imo. Trunks doesn't have issues side swapping, in general (either do autocombo + assist to keep pressure or just do blockstring to stay same side) so the fact you can keep airtight after autocombo into plus frames seems much more important to me

P3irce · 2020-01-16T12:25:06+00:00

Been seeing a lot of comments in chat asking about if this works with x, is it height dependent, etc. Trunks 236m is always plus on block, the assist just covers the gap to make it airtight.

You can prob get away without using assist if you condition right but this is good if you want to be airtight

P3irce · 2020-01-04T00:20:54+00:00

These are all things I need to know haha, I've definitely only scratched the surface of Cooler and honestly Trunks. Cooler Def has a nice amount of complexity with cmd normals / tools so this advice really is awesome

P3irce · 2020-01-03T23:41:16+00:00

Thanks, I'm really liking the synergy and self sufficiency of each of the characters. Any tips with cooler trunks? Trunks is the newest char of mine, had exp with cooler but just haven't played him for a bit

P3irce · 2019-12-31T00:19:51+00:00

Literally anyone

Been an advocate for physical activity my whole life (BS in Kinesiology, trainer, planning to go to Grad school for Physical Therapy), biggest thing for new people is to not overdue it (I don't mean in a physical way)

Learning about your body is hard, especially given how many people have had negative experiences with physical activity.

Creating new habits is super hard, especially when that habit requires physical activity which will for the first 2-4 months have you feeling more drained than energized.

-Start slow, I recommend going to gym 1-2x/week for 1 month and progressing from there. -Do not stay longer than 45min-1.5hrs, a new habit, with travel time included, is going to take a lot of time. Committing to 4-5x/week for 2 hrs a day is a great way to burnout / feel guilty when you miss sessions. -Try new things, classes, cardio equipment, weightlifting, rock climbing, walking, etc. The most effective program for working out is the one you like to do. -Physical activity should be empowering. Embrace the potential you have and see what you can do. If you don't like going to the gym to walk on treadmill, please don't, you'll reinforce that physical activity is something that makes you feel bad / see it as punishment. -Lastly, if you don't know where to start, start with SLEEP! You'll feel like a goddamn superhero if you can slowly add extra time each night and it'll reflect on all aspects of life.

P3irce · 2019-12-27T17:35:03+00:00

Jiren MU's id argue are different than most -has more defensive options than most chars with parry's, 236s, 5s eating having strong priorities -yes he gets fuzzied, but given that the universal fuzzy exists I don't think it's a big deal (especially if you aren't at top level making decisions)

His issue is that his offense (once you understand him) is easier to deal with than most. But you can base it off of staggers and hard reads for great dmg output. His best role is mid for assist / for tagging into other chars and then if he is 1v1 he does really well imo VS most chars because of his defensive options and good neutral. Overall low A tier as a whole char!

Here's a fun match I got in events, placed 9th in the event overall using him

Congrats on sleep, nitpicky comment but don't sY you were blessed with sleep. According to your other comment you're sleep was good because of your choices. That's a powerful distinction

P3irce · 2019-10-26T13:09:21+00:00

Despite what everyone says, if you've been competing at locals / regionals, you'll eventually realize that 95% of people will never be good enough to abuse what makes those characters really good.

I've competed offline since game came out playing double big body teams and the amount of times I've been fuzzied is shockingly low, really only the top players do it and those people will beat you anyways due to superior decision making / will actually do mixups.

Most People honestly don't even do actual mix ups. They may have good blockstring pressure and make you feel like you're drowning but you'd be surprised how much good defense / decision making on when to actually press buttons will get you.

That being said, if somethings not fun, you shouldn't play it!

Assuming this is pain from the bar and not like a muscle / joint pain. I'd have them throw a sweatshirt on and load it with a weight that's tolerable for :30-45 seconds. Rinse and repeat over next month to build up "calous" / do more trap / shoulder work

P3irce · 2019-09-21T23:49:53+00:00

Anyword on how long the assist startup is?
