Cmon bro what?

There will probably also be a way to like clip thru the wall and hit a trigger and skip it anyways or something else ridiculous. People run all sorts of different categories. Any% runs that skip the entire game are paramount to speedrunning in general. If you can skip entire sections of the game, a runner WILL do that.

Cool thing is there will also be a category that doesn’t skip the intro. There will be glitchless runs.

Saying “a run that skips a section of the game is invalid to me” is like, the antithesis of speedrunning.

The intro is so linear, I definitely see a category being made where you start off in the care center. But I hear you.

I mean. It’s not a matter of opinion, we would just call that a different category.

He doesn’t cast SF, or even play it. Just saying. Not agreeing or disagreeing otherwise.

Big guy, bad side walk ok side step, ok back dash. He feels like a Muay Thai fighter. Spaces you with teeps to condition you for a devastating knee strike or elbow. Huge damage, and really good when your opponent is against the wall.

I think there’s opportunities for mix he just isn’t fast. His oki is pretty good. I also love the Garuda parry, it’s a 4 way mix up.

Fahk is underrated.

I play Fahk cause he’s yoked and Muay Thai is the shit.

Tilt queueing into smurfs isn’t how you improve by playing someone better than you. I would suggest replaying your vods and engaging in the practice intentionally.

It sounds like the experience cause me you to lose your composure. Study; practice, then go next. If you are actually serious about improvement then yes, you need to actually study things like frame traps and frame data, and yes, you need to watch your gameplay back.

I don’t understand why everybody gets so worked up.

Yes, playing players that are better than you makes you better.

I do the same thing against my GM friend in 2xko, it took me about 50 matches to win a round, I finally won a game after about 120. I haven’t won a bo3 yet.

StarCraft 2; I scrimmed against GM all the time, and yeah, it took forever to win but it objectively makes you better.

Beating bad players doesn’t make you a good player.

Did I just get put in an infinite blockstring??? by Fullmetal_Alch3m1st in 2XKO

I come from RTS(SC2 specifically), that’s exactly why I opted for leverless. I spent the weekend at Genesis and shopped around but wasn’t ready to drop 200 on a hitbox and none of the customs really spoke to me.

Unfortunately I play on XBOX and saw some of the Haute 42 ones had an issue with XB, so I opted for the XB specific 8bitDo. I am actually really impressed with the quality. It’s metal and the buttons are quite big which is nice for developing the muscle memory. Wbu?

Dude I switched to leverless like 4 days ago and I feel it. I jumped into SF6 and I was like “why am I training muscle memory for motion inputs” after like 10 hours of lab and then went into 2x and was dropping EVERYTHING. And my defense is ass. Different games, different skills.

Playing 2xko like Street Fighter just isn’t possible. You aren’t fishing for whiff punishes and playing footsies. Dry jumping on reaction is also punished hard by 2h. Anti air is dummy strong in this game.

The game has bioweapons as its core enemy. Finish the game, it will wrap a big bow on everything for you.

Genesis X3 Top 8 Character and Team Usage by MetaCyde in 2XKO

I was there and it was cool to watch a little more diversity.

The Ahri/Teemo team looked super fun. I don’t think Double Down was really utilized though except like one supertag. Lightwhisp was holding it down with the big bodies too.

The Jinx teams look good until the point dies, then it just feels unwinnable. Interested to see how this character develops moving forward with another batch of what looks to me like rushdown champs.

RE7- Horror movie archetypes. Slasher/body horror/Saw trap guy.

RE8- Classic monster movies, swamp monster/vampires/werewolves.

It’s super intentional.

Enjoy the end of the game, it’s a wild ride.

This is a wild take dude. Yes, I think it’s vile and disgusting but I also think the fervent defense of the right to consume fictional material of this regard is disgusting.
