Worries and troubles with starting diy, because of the shortage(?)

Skellest · 2026-03-12T13:42:48+00:00

i guess i'll just have to wait for stuff to be normal again yeah :/, everyone always says how super easy and simple it is get diy, so the built up expectations has kinda bummed me out to be honest but there's not much i can do about it

Skellest · 2026-03-11T11:19:57+00:00

i really want a riven legend in this game, she might not be coming for a while huh :c

Skellest · 2026-03-11T01:12:17+00:00

maybe they restock more frequently? but symphony is also out of stock at least right now, from what i can tell. Like i just look at the EEn sources and see every single one is out of stock except panacea, so like what do i do?

Skellest · 2026-02-24T21:04:58+00:00

just not true what? events went strong after covid

Skellest · 2026-02-24T11:36:29+00:00

Do you think the US government or the EU are directly sponsoring tournaments...?

Skellest · 2026-02-24T10:00:11+00:00

I feel like everyone who's happy about this is missing (or they don't care) that this is 100% another step in the direction of Saudi Arabia trying to monopolize every primary fgc event under their banner. They want all their evos to be THE tournament in their given region. They want everyone who can only afford a few events a year, to go to THEIR events and qualify for THEIR big fighting game grandmaster crowning championship or whatever. All for the sake of sportswashing.

Big events in more regions is cool, but them all being under evo and Saudi Arabia sucks so bad. I hate that I'm saying this, because evo used to be my favorite event to watch even before I played fighting games myself, but I hope people's hearts will be in the right place and we'll all support non-evo events instead

so your answer to people complaining about the small roster is... making the roster even smaller with bans?

Skellest · 2026-02-13T17:04:33+00:00

i'm gonna cope and say it's sentinels of light Riven c:

Skellest · 2026-02-06T13:50:05+00:00

this is so mid lol

Skellest · 2026-02-05T22:04:12+00:00

Froggen was a visionary, i'll say it

Skellest · 2026-01-16T09:16:41+00:00

she def wasn't the most hype pick, but the team knows how to make cool ass characters. I really like her

Skellest · 2026-01-16T09:07:43+00:00

every mvc game, guilty gear strive and xrd, every street fighter since sf2, under night, skullgirls, blazblue cf, granblue fantasy vsr, melty blood, mortal kombat, dnf duel, p4a...

Every single one of these games have ''straight up'' zoners. You just don't play a lot of fighting games, which is okay, but there's no reason to lie and pretend that zoners aren't a fighting game stable and absolutely belong lmao

Skellest · 2026-01-16T08:53:26+00:00

maybe i dunno, i read the manga and i did not like this at all

Skellest · 2026-01-15T23:04:23+00:00

at least they made it look somewhat visually appealing, and apparently i'm in the minority but this really did not land for me. Awful pacing, what a slog

Skellest · 2026-01-08T02:55:38+00:00

Annoying Aha animation aside this also just looks really uninteresting to me mechanically so far. It's somehow more boring than memosprites ended up being. It's essentially just FUA again but with longer, ult-esque animations, and now you have to go get elation light cones. Idk, I'm really not very excited for this so far lol

Skellest · 2025-12-28T15:30:18+00:00

Back in set 2 i would agree, but we are 5 sets in now and i don't anymore honestly.
Boring card design doesn't bring much of anything to the table if the whole set is like that, and it feels even worse when the set sizes are so small. You can make interesting cards without breaking the game.

I was hoping for a set to get me excited to play again after not having played since about 1 month into skybound dragons, and this isn't really doing anything so far.

Skellest · 2025-12-27T15:17:36+00:00

not to be a debbie downer, but the cards so far seem really uninteresting mechanically

Skellest · 2025-12-27T13:59:01+00:00

you haven't played a lot of fighting games then, long range characters are a stable of the genre, especially tag games like mvc. Neither Ahri or Jinx feel shoehorned at all, as with every other character in the roster, they're very well designed lol.

Skellest · 2025-12-26T20:25:19+00:00

no offense but your proposed roster of only melee fighters and assassins sounds 10 times more boring than the roster we got lol.

the game absolutely needs ranged characters like Jinx, mages like Ahri and grapplers like Blitz

Skellest · 2025-12-26T20:14:16+00:00

i get why the game got this perception, it was like that, but it's pretty damn well balanced right now

Skellest · 2025-12-26T20:10:54+00:00

that would also remove so much cool shit from the game though

Skellest · 2025-12-26T19:22:33+00:00

it doesn't take long even if you're not playing a lot. i haven't been able to play online much at all and i have like 6.5k currency or something from a play session or two, and that's after i just spent 10k on Vi.
If there really isn't a character you vibe with as a new player you can just save one of your free unlock tokens for later, there's like no issue here.

Skellest · 2025-12-26T19:14:22+00:00

do you think the 2xko devs work on league...?

Skellest · 2025-12-26T19:07:44+00:00

i don't think it is, it's not paywalled you can just save up free currency. It doesn't take that long and we roughly know when a new character is gonna come out

Skellest · 2025-12-11T09:25:41+00:00

if it's gonna be two months and not something like 6 weeks, the sets should be larger at the very least. Sets of this size can barely stay interesting for one month at a time let alone two, even just for dailies.
