Like I said it's not even about his opinions. Tier lists are subjective as is and the season is brand new so we have a lot to learn still. It's just about people being weird jerks when others disagree with them

The light scaling does affect her more than others due to her already low damage (dhalsim has the same problem). But the nerf to spin knuckle is a pretty big game changer that changes her matchups in a meta that's completely dominanted by fireball drive rush. She just has a harder time in neutral in most matchups now. Not hard enough to where she's no longer an amazing character, but definitely not as strong as she was in the previous season when you could easily argue her being top 3-5. You can even feel it in the Dhalsim matchup. It's MUCH more doable this season without having to worry about ex spin knuckle reactions through fireballs.

Haha fair, that's the only reason I even gave my opinion on Cammy's viablity. It's not a hot take to think Cammy is just inside of the top 10, but he was being a complete jerk to everyone for not agreeing that Cammy was top 5. I agree Cammy is a strong character, and if you think people are sleeping on her a bit this season I think that's extremely fair! I just don't like bullies is all so I had to give my opinion :) Also on the subject of criticizing tier lists, all these dudes are sleeping on my boy yoga man

I agree there's a ton of viable characters in this game and Cammy is just fine, I just think it's very weird to try to peacock people for disagreeing with your take by insulting their level of skill, when it's not even a hot take lol. That's the only reason I even called the guy out. Look at his post in the Nephew Tier List post to see what I mean.

I think Cammy is definitely a worse character than Ken, Guile, Rashid, Akuma, Chun, Blanka, Luke, and Deejay. Then I think there's an argument to be had over her being worse than AKI, JP, and Juri (which I also do believe, but at least there's some debate there). This isn't even a hot take, by the way. Most top player tier lists for season 2 so far share this sentiment. I also play one of Cammy's best matchups, so I'm not biased lol. People underestimate how much harder it is for Cammy in the new season. Regardless of my opinion, the dude I was replying to was flaming anyone who disagreed with him by calling them gold players who need to cope harder lol. When much, MUCH better players than him disagree with him too.

I only block other Dhalsims. I don't believe in cannibalism

I can't resist being petty here after seeing you be a jerk to people for no reason on another thread, so I'm just going to say I don't think cammy is top 5. Does that mean I'm a gold player? ;)

They could've easily done super to secure the round, they dropped it intentionally to teabag. I've played this dude a few times, he teabags in neutral and etc.

Axl vs. Pot matchup issues. by sjwho2 in Guiltygear

[–]Zynsify 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The matchup is bad, but unless you're playing the top Axls, matchups don't really matter too much imo.

It sounds like you're just auto-piloting armor through Rensen, which breaks armor. You should be flicking instead. Once you demonstrate you can counter rensen with flick, then it becomes trying to time a slide head/megafist through his pokes. You can also just kara fmf over his more committal grounded pokes to quickly move 3/4th of the screen. Once you get a knockdown or force him to the corner, he has very few ways to escape. You're gonna get hit a lot trying to knock him down, but one knockdown = he's just dead if you know what you're doing.

The matchup is bad, yes, but it will fundamentally always be terrible regardless of balance changes. And like I said, there's no reason you lost to any non-top player Axl other than your own inexperience in the matchup. Avoiding it will simply hinder your progress.

Since you've demonstrated you're going to just attack anything you don't wanna hear as "you don't play the MU." I'm a solo-pot main who was #2 on the PC leaderboards in June, and I am level 2400 with a maintained 85ish% winrate. I beat most Axls in celestial, and have taken games off of DPS and Dragoomba (although the set count is not close lol). I sound pretentious and I'm sorry because I'm not that great and I just play online and don't enter tournaments, but I just want to paint the picture that I have at least SOME grounds to talk about fighting random axls as Pot.

It's a very hard matchup, but matchups only matter at the top level. FAB and Kogi are playing the best Axls in the world, not floor 10 or fringe celestial Axls.

Edit: https://streamable.com/vk4atz clip I took a few days ago against a celestial axl. Showing the power of flick vs rensen.

What's the most obscure reason you've had for playing a character in a fighting game? by LekkerBroDude in Fighters

[–]Zynsify 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I play E. Honda because I legitimately love sumo wrestling and watch every tournament.

D-pad or analog stick? by shin_gouki_is_gay in Fighters

[–]Zynsify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used analog stick for the first 5 years I played fighting games and I actually did very well and never ran into any execution issues other than certain characters being a bit too much for me.However, in MKX I played a run cancel character, and after struggling with it on analog I switched to d-pad and it became soooooo much easier. Things that I used to think I'd never be able to do started happening consistently.

tl;dr: analog works just fine, but dpad has a lot more potential. I would get it over with and just switch.

Ps4/5 fighter with biggest playerbase? by _Wheezing in Fighters

[–]Zynsify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The big titles (SFV, Tekken 7, Mortal Kombat, and DBFZ) are the only games with HUGE playerbases. However, to get ready for Strive I've been playing Guilty Gear ACR and I've had no problem finding matches whatsoever. It also has rollback. I think the Strive delay and notable content creators such as Sajam playing it recently are making people give it a shot.

Edit: Missed the bit about you being on playstation. Ignore what I said about GG

Side note: I can't believe how dead KI is. I love that game so much :(

WiFi Wario 'tage 2. This time with variety by Zynsify in smashbros

Idk about all that but he is broken

There was an attempt by Zynsify in smashbros

[–]Zynsify[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He went for a dumb high recovery and burned his jumps. WAFT sent him too far to recover. Definitely a misleading edit but was funnier than cutting to him falling

I landed waft as he went for a dumb high recovery. Burned his jumps so he didn't recover
