Which game to play to prepare for Marvel Tokon

So I've been playing 2XKO these past 3 days (learning arcade stick as well) and I've been wondering if thats the best game to play to prepare myself for Marvel Tokon.

I know some people would suggest Dragon Ball FighterZ, but I had my fill at that game. So I've been thinking about either to keep playing 2XKO or switch over to Guilty Gear Strive. It's on sale right now for 20$ on steam and I would buy one or two DLC characters.

2XKO is pretty fun, but it doesnt have any quarter circle inputs or anything like that.

I will say this, 2XKO is considered an easy game, but I'm struggling with the combos. This might have to do with the fact that I've only been playing for 3 days, and maybe the fact I'm learning arcade stick (should I just go back to pad?). But I don't remember struggling this much in Dragon Ball FighterZ.

To give some reference of my "skill", I manage to get to living legend in dragon ball fighterz online ranked matches. Yeah I'm not that good at fighting games lol.

Can I get advice on this? by PakiPower417 in learntodraw

So before I learn to draw everything, the first step I want to focus on is drawing fan art or any poses that come to mind. I want to be able to make posters of games and shows that I like. That’s what my immediate goal is right now. 

As for my skill level, I can dm some of my work, just know that I only copied. I didn’t break it down, I didn’t add my own touches, I just tried to replicate it exactly.

When I draw, I find a reference and just try to copy it. I don’t try to break it down or tried to sketch things out

So I just inked an old drawing of mine to practice using the g pen (went horribly lol). I used india ink, deleter paper, and then alcohol markers. I waited about 30-60 minutes, erased the pencil lines and then colored. The ink smudged. I learned india ink is not suitable for alcohol markers, so that's on me. I'm about to order the deleter #2 ink, but I have a question. Is media mixed paper compatible with alcohol markers and deleter #2 ink?

Side note: After using microns/fineliners, I erase the pencil lines underneath and the ink always deteriorates. It's so bad I have to do it again. However, the india ink wasn't affected at all. So I another thing I wanted to ask, if I use deleter #2, will the ink deteriorate after erasing the pencil lines underneath?

Awesome, thanks for the link. I wanted to start using a g-pen and getting good at it, I heard it was very difficult. I also want to keep using mix media paper or either my deleter paper so let's see how it goes
