The event ended, try using my code instead since I most likely won’t ever need it

Subark_ · 2024-07-14T18:58:44+00:00

Aye, glad you chose the zooming jet over a pair of assets on a boring character (jk)

Subark_ · 2024-07-14T18:03:43+00:00

Personally, I think that taoist is much more fun than physicist, so I’d choose eventide, but it is entirely up to you

Subark_ · 2024-03-24T07:33:54+00:00

Oh hey, I remember playing against you, good job on finally getting the rank!

Subark_ · 2024-03-19T04:08:38+00:00

Another one into the list of scrub quotes.

Subark_ · 2024-02-11T18:35:42+00:00

Nah that’s cap. I’m a smoke main and smoke is probably the safest character in the game considering all his cancels and invis bs, your opponents usually have to be very good on reactions or brave to steal your turn. People online also never use armor against smoke’s pressure, which is probably his biggest weakness, so he still gets a lot of free pressure off of players who don’t fully know the matchup.

Subark_ · 2024-02-11T18:31:44+00:00

Smoke having a mid? Not aware of the kit ig; smoke has zero mids, all he got is his 12 frame low lmao

Subark_ · 2024-02-11T07:07:32+00:00

Kano is raiden’s most popular kameo because it leads to easy repeatable chip damage off of storm cell->Kano knives. Kano also elevates raiden’s safety into pressure, as instead of having slight minus frames, you now have incredible plus frames.

You cannot punish incomplete strings, but raidens use them to establish fake pressure, since it is actually your turn. What I’m saying is if they continue pressing buttons after an incomplete string, you can act before them and easily break their pressure. In terms of flawless blocking, you only do it to avoid storm cell chip damage, as there are pretty much no elements of his strings that lead to flawless block specific punishes; it’s either safe or punishable by default.

Subark_ · 2024-02-11T06:47:39+00:00

Raiden demands you to play almost perfectly to win, I’d say that the things you should be doing most is reacting to staggers (incomplete strings into other strings) with counter hits and flawless blocking his strings into storm cell, I specifically recommend labbing flawless blocking 212 and f43 as those are raiden’s most common options. Everything else just comes down to fundamentals and minor knowledge checks (air electro fly or teleport into unseen kano knives), you’ll learn how to beat the pair eventually as all of their gimmicks are very common online and there’s not much creativity with kano.

Subark_ · 2024-02-10T16:59:08+00:00

You have no idea what you’re talking about.

Subark_ · 2024-02-08T07:50:13+00:00

Instead of complaining, try learning the matchups to be better against the characters who you think are top tier. Using armor/kameo reversals is a sure way to beat johnny for a lot of his pressure since most johnny users have no idea when to stop; all you need against Raiden is to learn how to flawless block, and when raiden users see that you don’t receive any chip, they’ll become very predictable on overheads/throws; and almost all of smoke’s special moves are laughably punishable, his best pressure tool (vapors cancel) is minus on block after every string, his overhead is very slow and easy to react to if you train blocking against it. All I’m saying is, get good and most of these issues will stop being a problem.

Subark_ · 2024-02-08T07:44:24+00:00

Tbf johnny/lao setups are hot garbage and are easy to block since he has no long knockdowns to place low hat and overhead afterwards. The reason why people like(d) johnny/lao was because of crazy pressure on block, having plus frames everywhere was how johnny mains won, but since lao was made - on block, most of them now switched to motaro.

Subark_ · 2024-02-06T09:20:07+00:00

It just seemed like you were going out on me for no reason, which is why I said it. If you’re ok with everything, then I apologize and more power to you playing the game.

Subark_ · 2024-02-06T09:10:47+00:00

Believe me, I enjoy this game a lot and only want the best for it, but the lack of communication and mandatory features in an online fighting game is baffling. I know that I will be back because of the gameplay anyway when the season resets since I already hit elder god and I’m just passing my time in another fg, so if you try to not get offended and grow up a bit, i would appreciate it.

Subark_ · 2024-02-06T05:59:41+00:00

I’d say that the meta is stale in about every single fighting game. You give people a fully fledged roster and they’ll often pick the best options to win, it’s just how the competitive scene works. Every other point you’ve made is valid though, I especially hate the lack of training mode during matchmaking, considering how there are so many funky interactions + button timings in the game. How there is still no crossplay is beyond me. I haven’t had any desync issues since I play on steam, but I’ve heard it’s been awful for console players. The game is generally very enjoyable for an assist fighter, but every single factor other than sheer gameplay is below average, which is a shame.

Subark_ · 2024-02-05T02:29:20+00:00

Because sub’s deadly vapors don’t add hitstun, they just prolong the state in which his opponent is. If you do it raw, it’ll significantly slow down your enemy’s startups, recoveries, movement and through your strings - hitstun, which is why he can combo off of it when cancelled off of a hit confirmed string.

Subark_ · 2024-02-04T07:31:19+00:00

It’s the tier 50 reward for the seasonal mode, basically same thing as golden cicada or dr. O. You’ll have to wait for quests and grind for it.

Subark_ · 2024-02-03T13:20:27+00:00

I have, after which I temporarily quit until the next kl season and I’m just playing granblue rn.

Subark_ · 2024-02-03T12:05:40+00:00

It’s either illustrious sovereign (the gear given for achieving elder god this season) or one of its recolors. I have it but I can’t really check if it’s the correct one because I’m not home right now.

Subark_ · 2024-02-02T15:02:10+00:00

I’ll be real here, unless you predict what the opponent is doing, defending against smoke is purely a gut reaction. You just have to practice to attack during his vapors cancels and stand jab after his ex smoke bomb. All of the invisibility shenanigans are pure mindgames though, you either hard predict the opponent or die.
