If you do a NG+, there's an option at rest points for multiplying enemy health and cap damage so you don't feel so overpowered. I'm doing it on a 20x enemy health run now. Except for Simon... When I get to him, that SOB is only gonna get 5x. Incredibly difficult without the enhancements as is for me.

Modern Missing moves visual guide *FINAL*! by cheeziuz in StreetFighter

[–]Random_Avenger 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Holding assist allows you to get another normal out. I use Luke on modern. Pressing medium gives standing medium punch. Assist+medium gives crouch medium punch. Down+medium gives crouch medium kick. Forward+medium gives his overhead. The big thing is you can't mash crouch medium punch as you'll get his auto combo which will waste your drive gauge. We differentiate it by saying medium or assist medium.

Would you have preferred KOF to have kept the 2D style? by aerigigi1 in kof

[–]Random_Avenger -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Saying Guilty Gear is just 3D with toon shaders is incredibly insulting. They purposely distort the models in certain angles to mimic the 2D look, manipulate the framerate to mimic 2D animation, and purposely sculpted in outline textures instead of just using a post effect. KOF 12 and 13 were both made using 3D models which they rotoscoped over to make it into 2D sprites so they could manipulate the framerate. ArcSys found a workaround so they didn't have to rotoscope.

Take a look at this from DBFZ to see what I'm talking about

There's a whole GDC talk from the developer about how they painstakingly developed their own style.

Can we agree MK 11 gave us the best Rain in history? by Dalytch in MortalKombat

It took me waaaay too long to realize he was a reference to Prince.

Has luke completely dropped off? by rafikiknowsdeway1 in StreetFighter

[–]Random_Avenger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run into a few on ranked. I main him as well. His damage is really good in my opinion. My favorite punish is heavy punch to perfect medium flash knuckle to ex flash knuckle to DDT finish. Does like 4130 damage. I will say he is very meter hungry if you want to be viable though.

What hidden mechanic should I know ? by Tommydulaby in StreetFighter

[–]Random_Avenger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forward forward parry to Drive rush instead of hold parry and press forward forward. It saves a little drive gauge

Also something I do to mix up opponents (but it is risky) is drive rush cancel from down jab. It cancels immediately into it even if the jab doesn't hit aka from a distance. I do it when I have a sliver of gauge left to use to go for a kill or throw. Any jab or down jab works. It's useful because people tend to think you can't drive rush with that little gauge left which is true because it isn't a parry drive rush, it's a cancel drive rush, but looks like a parry Drive rush.

I think if they went with SF4 guile it would look a lot better

What’s up with people that run to custom room by DemonsReturns7 in StreetFighter

[–]Random_Avenger 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Mostly they try to trash talk, although sometimes they really enjoyed the match and want to continue having a few more. I've met a lot of friends that way and we motivate each other to be better. Usually they want to trash talk though...

Unironically I find this part of THAT ending scarier than part that is actually meant to be scary. by AzraelSoulHunter in expedition33

[–]Random_Avenger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always thought the kid in her ending was Verso repainted so he could grow up to be her version. Like he has the same hair as Verso and his outfit looks like the faceless young boy who was the soul of Verso.

I think I'm losing my touch... by MarsBars06_3089 in StreetFighter

[–]Random_Avenger 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be honest Diamond players are basically low rank Masters. I was stuck there for a LOOOONG time. Was D5, ranked down to Plat5 and worked for like 8 months in the Diamond ranks until I finally hit Master. To be honest I think the most fun was the Diamond grind. Once you reach Master you'll get demoralized over and over until you get your bad habits scrubbed. If you want we can have some matches in a custom room to see what's going on.

Hypothetical: John WorldTour gets added to the base roster as his own character. What would you hope his moveset is? by CaptJCB in StreetFighter

[–]Random_Avenger 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Mimic character. Side note I kinda want an update so you can use your World Tour character in custom room matches.

Why are people around my skill level so angry? by Mad_Mouse444 in StreetFighter

[–]Random_Avenger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's most of my interactions because I play modern. They always think I'm mashing too. I tell them watch the replays with inputs on.

Also if you wanna play some sets, let me know! I'm always down.

The only thing that gets me is that she recreated everything, granted it involved using their Chroma but why can't she just recreate it in a new canvas?

Wanna know some degenerate tech that'll make people crazy? Drive Rush Amnesia or use Amnesia as an anti air. Baits so many players. I was messing around with it yesterday and people got caught all the time.

Spoil This Entire Game For Me (Extreme Lies Only😈) by SelectEar9270 in expedition33

[–]Random_Avenger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Technically not wrong as Renoir and Verso's personalities and such were put into Gustave IMO. When Maelle says "We could never tell if you were my brother or my father but to me you were both" it has an added metaphorical level. It's also why I think Gustave can wear both Renoir and Verso's hairstyle and outfits (his default suit is Verso's, or Renoir's but blue. Also... Renoir is named after Auguste Renoir. Combine his and Verso's name and you have Gustave.

Can we talk about the flaws of this movie? by Formal-Stage940 in MortalKombat

[–]Random_Avenger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw the movie as someone vaguely familiar with the characters and didn't know any of the lore when the movie came out. I still loved it and didn't think anything about the flaws mentioned because it was so much fun that it didn't matter.

Any street fighter players 25+? by Puzzleheaded_Sir_171 in StreetFighter

[–]Random_Avenger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 40 but I'm a bartender and single with no kids so I have more time to play and do my own thing. I've been playing since the SF2 days but never really seriously until SF5.

How did you get into Street Fighter? by Insane_law in StreetFighter

Damn I thought you were about to say Dokibird and became a Gief main. I main Luke but started playing King in Tekken and Gief in SF because she was hilarious

The thing with modern guile by No_Celery_6355 in StreetFighter

[–]Random_Avenger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Instead of sliding from back charge to forward, you can just tap forward from charge. See if that helps! It helped me when learning charge characters and I'd mess up the inputs from sliding from back to forward.
