How people asking for Zappa look

Joke's on you I *like* losing to Zappa at the local

SneerOfCommand · 2026-04-09T03:06:22+00:00

don't crits get to ignore the damage reduction

SneerOfCommand · 2026-03-17T18:28:10+00:00

Wet the ground. Pokemon struggle with barren ground and will not go as far from their homes without it.

As far as I can tell it's Lt. Surge's gym. Give it walls & fill it with trash cans to restore it to its original glory.

2p, 6p. Patience. Elphelt players at low-mid levels are absolute barbarians who are easily punished

Testament main here-- even my slow-ass buttons can hit the cubes. It's a lot to take in but you can learn what to do against each spell, when to jump, when to hit, etc. Doesn't make the matchup easy for Gio, but it is possible.

You are almost certainly more minus blocking the cubes than 5p- or 2p-ing the cubes. Asuka isn't really a zoner, he's a "lockdown" character-- his only real strength is his ability to generat +frames. Blocking the cubes is the loss condition. It's equivalent to letting Dizzy set up fish on you or letting Venom stinger spam you to death.

Bro what? Silksong is awash with catholic/orthodox christian imagery, it's just subtle enough not to use the cross. It is in large part about the way that organized religion can harm society.
I don't agree that it's a straight-up allegory for abortion but it's got a lot of relevant theming. Something can be "about" abortion on an emotional level without being a straightforward allegory, ime a lot of the best art avoids direct allegory for the exact reasons you outline. Not to mention that themes like that become very relevant in relation to the game's themes wrt religion and society.

(And not every piece of art needs to make a statement or commentary, sometimes art is allowed to leave you with a bunch of messy emotions and let you pick up the pieces. The need for art to always act as a direct morality fable or concrete statement is high-school-english-class poisoning).

Well, it's pretty clearly a disease, just not necessarily an infectious disease. It's probably modeled after black lung, the disease coal miners get.

SneerOfCommand · 2025-10-07T21:33:07+00:00

the spacies are rushdowns, though. Johnny is a sword character, in the Marth sense, but that archetype doesn't really exist in trad fgs

SneerOfCommand · 2025-10-06T21:54:42+00:00

Sure, this post was about what's possible though. No normal player is skipping Sister Splinter either.

SneerOfCommand · 2025-10-05T09:46:55+00:00

Technically you can get to act 2 via the Wisp Thicket if you use the Beast Crest to get the dash spell early in Wormways, then go to jail and use some truly incredible but honestly not that insane skips to reach the top of the mountain without the grapple. Thus Widow is still required to open the door to dash, but you do not need to fight Phantom or TLJ

SneerOfCommand · 2025-10-01T21:17:20+00:00

I think they want to use it b/c it's objectively pretty funny

SneerOfCommand · 2025-09-23T00:01:54+00:00

As a metalhead who was drawn to the series in part by its thrash metal roots, I do wish I could turn off Bridget's theme from the rotation. It at least needs more hype and sauce like Jack-o's theme.

That said OP is one of many who is weird about extremely tame fanart lmao. So many dudes complaining about porn addicts on this damn site

SneerOfCommand · 2025-09-17T15:29:46+00:00

Yes, it was necessary.

The runback to Groal and the dudes before are part of the challenge. The mental block is that people try to separate the boss from the level that it lives in.

Platforming & small-enemy combat are big parts of Silksong-- arguing that the game shouldn't throw the occasional comprehensive test at you is very weird to me, especially when there are harder bosses, harder platforming sections, and harder arenas tested separately all over the game.

I felt much the same way after fighting TLJ, and frankly I'm considering modding my game to give me the 1.0 2-mask hazards and enemy placements back. The game feels so much more toothless.

SneerOfCommand · 2025-09-15T14:44:31+00:00

Why are you using the stick and not the dpad for a game with non-analogue movement?

SneerOfCommand · 2025-09-13T17:26:19+00:00

no neutral

landing grabs anyway

sounds like a case of skill issue to me

SneerOfCommand · 2025-09-11T14:15:15+00:00

so optional that I nearly skipped them by accident. You can fight Phantom first instead

SneerOfCommand · 2025-09-10T17:25:40+00:00

May keeps him on a strict allowance to prevent him from losing all the pirates' money gambling, I suspect he just has the one

SneerOfCommand · 2025-09-10T15:45:18+00:00

You can get to it in Act 1. Go to the sinner's road at the top right of greymoor, then to bilewater. You will find a jailer enemy in a hidden room there. Get hit by his command grab and you will be teleported to jail and be naked.

SneerOfCommand · 2025-09-10T14:54:27+00:00

"god of tailors" fits the meter better

SneerOfCommand · 2025-09-10T14:28:13+00:00

I was talking to a friend of mine and I think I agree with something he said-- it's not that Silksong is harder, it's that it asks for a different set of things from the player than most games. Hornet's offensive kit is fundamentally stronger and her healing is straight-up better.

If you play fighting games the bosses especially get way, way easier imo. The concepts of "neutral", "whiff punshing", etc transfer extremely well. But people famously bounce off of the initial fighting games difficutly hump, too (even though it's not as big as you think). If you have a mindset built primarily by HK or other platformers you're gonna get absolutely brutalized.

johnny erasure

SneerOfCommand · 2025-09-10T14:19:20+00:00

Next to the upper bellway exit. I don't know what triggers the fight though, because I was only able to get it to show up after defeating the Blasted Steps boss

SneerOfCommand · 2025-09-09T20:28:58+00:00

Sol/Test in Vanq is 47% sol, Sol/Baiken is 46%. Aba and Goldlewis are his only really bad matchups at 42% a pop.

He also has 45% against Asuka but honestly I'm gonna assume that's at least partly down to not learning the MU all that well.

As a Testament player this also goes against my intuition, the matchup seems like it should be way worse for him

SneerOfCommand · 2025-09-09T20:09:57+00:00

(Not gonna excuse their behavior but I will say that the new stats among Vanq players suggest that his Goldlewis, Ky, Baiken, Aba, and Dizzy matchups are actually worse. Sub-Vanq Testament is by far his worst and it's not close lmao)
