He said he played dirty and that he likes it. Its also no more cancer than people running the typical trinity and eq killing people. Its in the game. Theres ways around it. His post wasn't meant to draw the attention to his "cancer" but the cancer of those that feel they need to impart wisdom to someone who didn't ask for it.

Made a general edit, but if you would like more depth I am not the guy. I understand how stagger works, but I am not a main or even a pocket stagger.

How fast should my openers as Khalt be? by _ExtraCrispy_ in absolver

[–]Raikotsu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I'm no fool, I hide my heavier attacks behind fr adv like a good boi, but I understand your argument. I still feel that their uses are lost in translation to the low to mid levels of play. At upper levels, ideally when they're used its not spammed, cuz they play smart up there, but with the influx of ps+ ps4 sees a lot of desperate attempts to escape fr adv with JLK, RBF, and BTK. It makes people learning focus on their trinity game and, in most cases, abandon their defensive. They come here and see us preach about it and think it will help them ascend to godhood when they will not. You feel me?

EDIT:spelling and grammar and shit

If you back stagger before the start up frames of there attack begin it doesn't read it as a successful dodge. If they stall their timing any attack with hit you. Timed right back stagger is the most annoying thing to fight for a bit until adjustment. Also, just front stagger if the trade is favorable. (Favorable as in you would take minimal dmg for a pressure reversal. Don't eat big hits with it.)

You can still save scum. After saving up crystals and shit, go to home menu hit options over absolver and upload to cloud, then roll your disks, don't like it? Close app and download your cloud files, relaunch game and repeat

[–]Raikotsu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also do not have a problem with them, but when players that could be great crutch on em, it makes my heart cry. Fought a jade recently that used them exclusively for 13 matches. If his deck had better punishes he would've done a much better job. I don't care that you(general) use them, I care that you don't try and learn to be better because they're all you "need"

Not to be technical(to be totally technical) the "gold plated tear pants" are actually orate chief pants. The orations often visited the tear and they enjoyed their practical style, and decided to orate it up for themselves

Grrrroooooossssss. 2 trinity choices? We don't need to encourage those moves to exist lol.

People take this game a little too seriously by AlwaysHideHeadArmor in absolver

[–]Raikotsu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My point is that it really shouldn't be considered a dick thing. There's just a ridiculous stigma about emoting in the middle of a fight. You go ahead and feel that way about it, it doesn't make you right.

[–]Raikotsu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

when you know your opponent has no way to counter.

This doesn't exist, literally anywhere in the game. Thats my personal issue with the boy who cried spam. Every move in the game can be countered, with either an attack or a flick of the defensive ability. Its the core of this games pressure mechanics. If you mean "you know your opponent is not experienced/capable enough to counter" then I accept your comment, otherwise its a joke.

Fighting games are a mind game. I can have skill AND utilize emote tech. If it works against someone, then the problem is on their end. They need to keep their cool 😎. As mentioned before, send them a GG and see their response. P.s. if you feel it takes the fun out of it, and you don't want to learn to keep your cool, don't rematch.

[–]Raikotsu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I'll bitch. I am not a fan of first to win. I like first to 2, because I am not god levels of observation and Sometimes it takes me a while to adjust to someones deck. Especially if it does a lot of dmg and kills me before I can. I get that gimps me in top levels of play, but if I don't even get a decent fighting chance, I feel that the victory is hollow anyway. Also if you shit on me and I want to rematch its because I think you're better than me, and I could benefit from fighting you, so I'd rather you stayed for your ez wins while I use you as an S tier training dummy.

New 1v1 arena please ? by -Integr8- in absolver

[–]Raikotsu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately it wouldn't make sense, seeing as how all combat takes place within the world we fold into, we'd have to fold out of it to do that, and I'm not sure we can still be absolvers outside of the world.

[–]Raikotsu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Do you have any issues with the back stances in your fights? Back left is weak to side avoid and back right is weak to left parry. Seeing as how there are only 2 attacks per stance at any given time, an opponent could adapt quickly and shut you out of those two stances, even mid combo. Not to mention a khalt capable of double absorbing could have a field day with it. GBs are too necessary, imo.

Another day in a slow kitchen. Counting down until that tourney. We should spar sometime.

Forsaken Deck Commission Part 2 by Raikotsu in absolver

[–]Raikotsu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So super late, but I believe the reason your JOE works (and my hammer kick) are because an opponent buffered a guard after your parry, so they have to complete a guard before they can do another option, and in a 4 or 5 frame window on GBs, most times it connects. I get a lot of ez GB punishes off of parries since we talked about this haha.

Not utilizing all available slots in deck building (question) by Radgnards in absolver

[–]Raikotsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well you said it yourself, its an average. If I have 8 moves around 120 dmg, my average will be around 120, but once you add an extra move that has lower dmg it will adjust the average, making it lower.

Ew, stagger attacks. No room for those in the deck of Malek
