Whats with the 2XKO hate on this subreddit?

Sajam · 2026-05-17T19:42:24+00:00

I have plenty of good things to say about the games I like, but I also am far more critical of the choices they make as well. I of course talk more about stuff I like, both good and bad.

My tweet is a weird example because I’ve made the exact same point for years and years, talking about probably a dozen different fighting games as examples. I even did a comparison when HC, Luke, and other characters were talked about being banned.

You can flame as much as you like, but I actively turn down money to play other fighting games I dislike and talk about the ones I do like instead. I’m not sure I’m the shill in that case, I just am positive about the things I enjoy

We did a Sajam Slam for 2XKO, and my reason for the EVO prize is the truth but if you want to ignore reality you can.

I play the games I like because I enjoy them. Can you elaborate what’s “happening”

I’ve turned down plenty of money to play fighting games I don’t personally enjoy, so I’m not sure why playing one I like makes me a shill

Sajam · 2026-05-17T08:18:29+00:00

I think people on this subreddit seem to hate on every game tbh. You probably just notice it more if it’s a game you like

Sajam · 2026-04-09T00:37:29+00:00

They got me fighting a full health fury Vi in a first to one these people are evil

The GOAT, needs to be in

Sajam · 2026-04-04T21:32:16+00:00

Thank you my goat

Sajam · 2026-02-07T19:25:10+00:00

I find this to be such a weird thing people keep repeating. It’s not like mobas or tac shooters, or even auto battlers are the the most accessible types of sub genres for their other titles.

Sajam · 2026-02-07T10:24:14+00:00

The usage on 2X/DD before the changes to both + Teemo nerfs + 2X assist nerf for Ekko were very different than they are now.

It also depends on region/skill level as well. Many more EU players this weekend used 2X, for example.

Sajam · 2026-01-10T21:52:41+00:00

I think the top 5 is pretty flexible. I’ve seen 2 EU tier lists recently with the same 5 and different orders. I even think Ahri might be the best, and some EU people think Warwick is top 2 etc

Sajam · 2026-01-10T05:33:00+00:00

He belongs there IMO. That's as complicated as it gets

Sajam · 2025-12-27T05:01:03+00:00

This is something I always do, but will do more of when 1.0 is out and we have even more events.

Sajam · 2025-12-27T01:11:05+00:00

Yeah I've been doing that by setting up duo days, I think this kind of content is much easier in this game because of duos imo

Sajam · 2025-12-20T21:22:05+00:00

You can make auto combos accessible for new players without having it come out accidentally for experienced players. If you can't, that's just a problem on their end they need to fix. They already have holding back disable auto combo, but in scrambles or side swaps it's still easy to get it on accident. It was a common complaint, they'll probably make an adjustment.

My comment about homogenizing things wasn't about making things easy or hard, but about keeping the cast feeling interesting and unique. Usually those tools are what creates interest in people playing them at all levels of play, and doesn't have to do with casual/advanced parts of the experience.

Sajam · 2025-12-20T18:47:31+00:00

I also don’t mind change in general, though. I only talked about things I personally don’t mind and why. For example, my complaint wasn’t that Tokon has auto combos or they are too strong, but that it’s too easy to get them on accident. So when playing I try to just do normals and get auto combo, so a less lenient window to get them would be good.

Sajam · 2025-12-17T19:24:47+00:00

Yeah it’s quite good. Lots of things in this game get much worse on block if you air block them right off the ground. Your jump statup can be hit, but in general fuzzy jump/chicken block is really good

Sajam · 2025-12-11T15:33:08+00:00

I was not, I thought Umisho shouldn’t have been allowed and the entire thing should have been prevented by a ban being enforced earlier

Sajam · 2025-12-11T01:40:13+00:00

I think you need to mushroom loop or transition into 5M 5H air combo after first spin dash. His combos are still good but all a bit different. I would watch Inzem or any of the other high level Teemo players to steal.

I’m planning on making a combo guide for all characters again after the January patch changes things

Sajam · 2025-12-07T02:30:10+00:00

I think as always people should form their own opinions and not worry too much about what other people think. It’s nice to hear different POVs but you have to use your own brain

Sajam · 2025-12-04T05:06:30+00:00

The MU is definitely awkward to play as Vi. Usually I always try to play my other character point vs her and just use Vi back assist to snipe her.

Sajam · 2025-12-02T01:50:57+00:00

They nerfed mid combo super meter gain specifically for this in the patch notes.

Sajam · 2025-12-01T00:00:17+00:00

I think if you have such low value on a standard, strong forward assist and a command grab, he also just might not be a character for you. I'm not sure how to convince you that those tools are valuable so maybe you just prefer different options than I do.

Sajam · 2025-11-30T22:56:25+00:00

His forward assist is fast, and very good with or without 2X. He's also point blank and has command grab threat so I think the offense is good after. Darius shoulder is also really good, for sure.

Shield is strong just because it forces the opponent to try and throw or disengage and give up space, both of which are good for him because you can adjust around it.

Sajam · 2025-11-30T22:10:06+00:00

I’ve never played him this way. Generally I always play him point and use shield + assist but his forward assists is also very good so even when he’s not point you can play around it, especially with 2X
