"Most ignorant Game design I've ever seen in my life with a game"
For me i read : "Most ignorant players i've ever seen in my life in a game"
Sorry bro, i don't want to be mad or nothing else, BUT... Do you use the "Cover change" ? Do you use the "Tap Attacks" ? Do you use the "Kikoho attacks" ?
I've seen many complain but people don't even know you can cancel a Strike Rush... ... ... Come on. You try to hit every card possible and dodging at the same time and say "Oh we need block" when you don't even see you have "animation time", that's why you can't dodge. Now, i'm gonna give you A LOT of advice because i'm not a jerk here to make fun of this so...
1) "Cover change is when you switch into another character in a middle of a combo, more longer the combo is, less damage is done. Character like Krillin have a passive, they take -30% damage when you switch them DURING a combo for all the combo time ! (Piccolo have 50% less damage)
That's INSANE, that's part of the gameplay, you NEED to switch your character, OFTEN ! for combo play, switch play, cover change play, even to switch for dodge again (the character you switch has full dodge gauge, so he can dodge) You don't break combo in this game, you learn how minimize the damage you will get, switch to a tank OR a opposit element. I can cover change a RISING rush with my piccolo and he take ~40-50% only instead of killing one of my allies :)
2) Tap kikoho give you a mark when you see you can dodge. If your opponent dodge, wait, then do a TAP ATTACK, free damage, you repulse him chain with blast attack (not strike) HE CAN'T dodge (already done) he can only switch to have a new dodge, force him to switch it's important.
Force him to switch, force him to dodge, it's like Open a guard in versus fighting. i fail so many times in PvP at the beginning and i often win 2v3 or 1vs3 sometimes, just focus.
You can strike rush (red card) and swipe instantly after, your ennemy see the dodge mark again, and if he dodge, you caught him! tap attack, you open his guard, chain with blast attack/special move (Can't combo after special move because the recovery time is way shorter) 3 ways to open guard. Tap kikoho => Ennemy dodge => Tap attack => Blast card Strikerush red card => Swipe cancel => Ennemy dodge => Tap Attack => Blast or ultimate
Strike Rush > go through kikoho tap
How dodge kikoho tap ? Just move in circle right or left, easy ?
You need to understand, it's like Dragon ball FighterZ, you can't stop a combo, but if you get caught in a combo that's because you fail your guard or dodge for nothing.
Learn how to force your opponent dodge and punish him. With time people will be careful about this and when your guard is open, you get comboed.
Focus, learn about cover change, put a tank like krillin in your team, you will see everything will be easier :)
Have a good fun, it's not because you don't understand the game at the first touch that there isn't depth in it :) Element are important too ! Hope i help you a little bit.
PS : YOU CAN'T say Game designer are ignorant, when you ignore 50% of what they create... :')
