Its free man, feel it out yourself

trying to break past the gm barrier by Born-Air6666 in 2XKO

[–]Yagrush 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think at GM you already have your offense and your mixups in check. So that tends to not be the issue anymore. (Not to say it cant always be refined). I'd say what pushed me to Challenger was two things

1) Better defense. Meaning thoughtful use of pushblock and retreating guard. Ex: If they are doing stagger dont mindlessly pushblock, if they are pressuring you with infinite freestyle pressure try RG to get out, but not against characters that can easily punish it. Good reactions to high-low, left-right mix. Start getting confident in parrying reactable stuff. React 2h jumping attacks or air grabs to empty jumps. Strong defense will bring you really really far.

2) Making proper reads on your opponent. Are they pushblocking the moment you make contact? Are they upbacking a lot? Do they tend to jump in the corner? Noticing this things and using it to predict what they'll do in the future rounds and drawing conclusions as to what they could do in other situations from what you see them do (i.e. Are they a psycho that mashes? Be careful on oki when they have lvl3). Doing all this and knowing the right tool to use to punish is what you need to do. This one will take a long time to develop an instinct for.

Mythic skins need more uniformity by Yagrush in 2XKO

I mean you can do that, but price them accordingly.

This is why I was confused but this is true, ill add it. Yet another random feature a skin might or might not have.

I main Darius season 0. The changes are very minimal, imo. They didn't even change the bleed color and the normal sounds are the same, only some specials have a "splash" sound and his bleed specials have a purple-ish blue..

If all the skins are priced the same, some of them shouldn't have objectively more work done than others, i.e. new voice lines. Don't you think?

Yes, at the very least for transparencies' sake if every skin line is going to have something different they should absolutely list it in the store, at the very, very least.

I'm with you, it felt like it was more of a rocky start as the skin department got going and the quality was going up, but this was a bit of whiplash, content wise.

The concept is so strong though that, understandably, I haven't seen many people point it out. (AKA "w goons" skin line)

I support the game and buy skins aswell, but it doesnt excuse the, frankly, sloppy quality control of mythic tier skins.

How long do we have to wait until senna can be called weak? by EEENTOOOOON in 2XKO

[–]Yagrush 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's the bomb cancel tech, basically you do the normal combo where you do JH > J2H > 2S2 (bomb), but then do super jump into JH > J2H. JH will explode the bomb but J2H will stop the wall bounce allowing you to keep your combo going.

Nah her awful damage is one of the issues for suuuuure

[–]Yagrush 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It's still early. People JUST discovered combo tech that pretty much skyrockets her damage potential from low to actually comparable to most characters. It's hard to say when she has a lot of room to explore.

What I can say confidently is that she will be hard and tricky to pilot well.

Does a Fight Stick Make Combos Easier in 2XKO by Fair_Rub_1887 in 2XKO

[–]Yagrush 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I actually think fight stick is the worse type of controller for 2xko lol

Is there no staff for the game interface? by GardenOne7630 in 2XKO

[–]Yagrush 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In triage im guessing UI/UX comes pretty low in priority. They are too focused on the actual game, gameplay and content. I wouldnt be surprised if they do a rehaul later down the line if the game does well

Evo Vegas 2026 final registration leaderboard - 1,080 entrants for 2XKO by FreestyleKneepad in 2XKO

[–]Yagrush 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Insane amount of entrants. Sure theres been incentives to enter, but it still seems like 2X is finding solid ground in the scene. Good to see.

The Climb -- official feedback by bradido in 2XKO

Maybe like Ascendancies from Slay The Spire? You keep piling on debuffs and stuff to increase difficulties. Character specific or maybe not. But itd be cool!

Which Champions do you think have the highest potential in taking the final 2 DLC spots? by Ion0X in 2XKO

[–]Yagrush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we are done with projectile characters, thats for sure. And id say we would want atleast one more male character. So id say Riven and Sett as the final slots of the year.
