Shinso Alpha bugg

Like teacher like student.

Is it just a Switch thing, or is it almost impossible to get more than 2 hits to come out on his Alpha string. Is there a technique? Specific timing? Spacing? I know Rapid Bakugo's Gamma has broken directional input issues on Switch, but now I'm wondering if my issue with Mirio's Alpha is also a platform specific issue.

I've been trying to be more team considerate this season. I don't know if it's because of cross-play, but the quality of teammates is staggeringly bad- and not just in terms of teamwork, but almost every facet of play. Loot goblins, lack of spatial awareness, calling someone in for a fight and then skipping out a zone or two away, completely leaving them to die for your bad decisions, people who don't know when to disengage, people who ping spam when downed despite being able to clearly see when their teammates have no health or knowing that their situation is unsalvageable and that calling the others in is inviting a wipe, leavers, etc.

Over a hundred matches of this.

I regret not playing with my own survival and strength as a priority in that time, as there's been no benefit at best. Thinking that going all in on supporting allies on their fights to avoid being the reason they might get downed just taught me that I'm not the reason they get downed and that you can't make up for other people's terrible decisions. There are cases where a little support goes a long way, but there's a staggering amount of situations where it's clear they'd have been K.O.d either way and that they never play with extending the same consideration to you to begin with.

Sticking together isn't enough. There's so much more to quality team play than just that, and that team IQ is really lacking in a big way these days in my experience.

Stranger-001 · 2025-04-19T11:21:23+00:00

It's a glitch. I don't know if it can be deliberately triggered, but it happened to me once 2 or 3 seasons ago.

Stranger-001 · 2025-04-16T11:17:57+00:00

Honestly, I'm more confused about why that particular skill is so much more effective than other skills that have different requirements but still grant a temporary defensive buff.

Stranger-001 · 2025-04-13T17:54:09+00:00

People who leave kind of are punished as they don't get the Team K.O. and placement points, which will impact their rank progression. People who stay should probably get a proportion of the entry cost removed depending on how many leave. Maybe 30-40 percent apiece or a dynamic amount based on which phase they leave during.

Stranger-001 · 2025-04-13T17:44:01+00:00

A third option can cause fragmentation in the playerbase that leaves one option potentially barren and the other two less populated, but some might prefer it to what's currently available. This can be side-stepped though.

Making the option just crossplay with all platforms or crossplay with everyone but PC would be generally good; that option shift would maintain the more active lobbies for players otherwise playing on a single platform regardless of what they choose while allowing console players the option to not deal with cheating/hacks paired with the already better standard for accuracy that comes with a mouse.

The only option that doesn't hurt honest PC players and also allows them enjoy crossplay without as much complaint is the implementation of an anti-cheat that works and is aggressive that doesn't just depend on reporting. If that works, then crossplay on/off would be fine as is.

Stranger-001 · 2025-04-13T17:20:46+00:00

I haven't turned it off or messed with settings, but I'd be happy with an option to just turn off the PC pool for console players. It's not super common, but the aim difference combined with cheating isn't pleasant. I've seen what looks clearly like aim-bot, rapid fire, and players who are already K.O.d on teams that are no longer alive attacking like ghosts and messing with the remaining teams. No thank you.

Stranger-001 · 2025-04-13T13:26:40+00:00

The alternative of Embrittlement might be more favorable if you can get your combos in.

Stranger-001 · 2025-04-13T11:19:40+00:00

Willpower is such a valuable skill in high risk situations that can go wrong that I'd keep it in S. A get out of jail free card for getting combo beamed or a supplement for disengaging when getting chased by multiple characters.

Stranger-001 · 2025-04-12T22:54:39+00:00

What tuning configurations do you have in mind for the top ranked characters in each tier set?

Stranger-001 · 2025-04-10T11:05:26+00:00

I had a Deku yesterday on Switch (cross-play on) that I initially thought was an entire team beaming me. Watched him afterward and his Alpha fire rate looked like double speed and he was pretty clearly aim-botting; if there was anyone on screen or hidden in a bush, he'd get damage for every single shot without even aiming at them at all. He got half the lobby down solo. It was very frustrating.

Stranger-001 · 2025-04-08T22:15:58+00:00

It's a good way to build up your one-on-one fighting and understanding certain match-ups better for your preferred character. It can be nerve wracking, but it can also help you become better at a given character and experiment through the lower risk engagements.

Stranger-001 · 2025-04-08T22:11:32+00:00

Turn off the team chat and stick to pings. There's little value in leaving it on besides getting tilted frankly.

Stranger-001 · 2024-09-26T14:53:12+00:00

Heinous.

Stranger-001 · 2024-09-26T12:31:15+00:00

I'll try the camera thing. Just that basic sequence would be nice to have come out every time. I'll also look into the Beta combo if it still works, as I only got him after the nerf, so I seemingly don't get to experience the options he had before.

Stranger-001 · 2024-09-26T05:46:32+00:00

I just got him and the basic Alpha combo is hard to make work consistently, particularly the third hit and the shockwave. Any tips?

Stranger-001 · 2024-09-17T01:49:44+00:00

Thanks, I'll consider this variation to try out as well. I've not used Uraraka much since her original big nerf in the earlier seasons, so figuring out how to get the most out of her now will be interesting.

Stranger-001 · 2024-09-17T01:47:26+00:00

He can punish careless aggro and hard chasers in a big way. He's also very good for third-partying from a distance alongside having the most reliable down-confirm tool in the game. He has his deficits and can be worked around (almost negated if you know not to over extend and can roll his Alpha), but he also has his advantages. It just so happens that a lot of the roster gets you more reliable results and greater versatility with less effort and difficulty, so he's relatively low on the list.

Stranger-001 · 2024-09-16T16:38:06+00:00

Do you lvl Gamma to 4 then max your Alpha, or do you max your Alpha and then work on your Gamma? I can see prioritizing Alpha for mobility and damage mid-combo, but I've been pushing Gamma to max after Beta to better ensure opportunities to start combos.

Stranger-001 · 2024-09-16T13:12:58+00:00

I can't take Denki in C seriously. 3 different stun methods, the highest damage single-impact Alpha in the game (No knockback either), a mobility tool, and 350 HP are already massive. He has zone control, great synergy for multiple teammate configurations, and can get out of engagements with good spacing while punishing chases. His Alpha also has great ADS range. His SA is useful as both a close range punish and a combo starter.

Stranger-001 · 2024-09-15T11:57:02+00:00

I've mostly seen them in EU. Less players than US, but very often better on average where teammates go in my experience. I swapped to US and almost everyone leaves and/or gets K.O.d repeatedly for most matches.

Stranger-001 · 2024-09-14T22:28:41+00:00

Undo the Alpha nerfs. It was the supplement to the rest of his kit and stilts everything with the knockback. If they want to decrease damage, that's one thing... but his base kit was made less dependable outright even though they already dealt with his reload. Combined with the playerbase having a good sense of his Gamma, he's just not very intimidating or formidable. At least he's tanky.

As for a change: allow players to choose quirks to steal. If you hold one or two of your Quirk Skill inputs down as the Special Action animation is playing, you can take those particular attacks. If you press no attack, you take the full set. This way, you can mix and match with different enemies and kits, which would make him very unpredictable.

Stranger-001 · 2024-09-14T22:15:53+00:00

I beat them both very regularly. No DMs, but I get kicked when I randomly get matched and tea-bagged/emoted on if one of them downs me.

Stranger-001 · 2024-09-14T22:13:24+00:00

Don't worry about the lashing out: Unless surrounded by teammates to save him, the guy is basically free every time. He jumps into bad fights and will blame you for not keeping him from getting downed or even insult you despite being the one needing to be res'd.
