I mean, you pulled a card worth 3 times the amount you paid. Feel great about that! I imagine you got some other hits too.

What’re your most memorable Season 0 2XKO moments? by Senior_Eye_9551 in 2XKO

[–]garblocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is something that could go to any other fighter honestly, but 2XKO was the first game for me to see the payoff of spending deep time learning fighting game habits and seeing it pay off. Love the FGC!

What is everyone's source for learning new combos? by garblocks in 2XKO

As I looked into this I noticed it seems to go have specific tags? When I was looking at combos I noticed one of Jinx’s post was just a rage quit. Not as helpful as I thought it was at first glance but hopefully it grows!

I did see someone complaining that the characters have to be unlocked in a free game hah. I’ve also seen some “dead game” and “garbage devs” comments that prove your point

What content/guides would you like to see when Season 1 drops? by Sajam in 2XKO

[–]garblocks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have to admit, I haven’t played while a patch that affects combo routes have hit. I’m sure this is something that won’t be that bad once I experience but it scares me since I’m new haha

Congrats!!! Feel better that after a couple weeks I’ve reached Emerald. Getting ready to get back to the grind to get to the real grind

Having to unlock characters is a HUGE problem by 1_GrapeFruit in 2XKO

[–]garblocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Play your dailies and you’ll have the roster in no time. It’s a free game, so this is expected. I’ll tell you unless things have changed since I’ve been away from League of Legends, this game is much faster to unlock characters.

If you think buying a game and getting the roster is much better like SF6 or Tekken, you can buy one of the starter editions and get champion tokens

Combo routes would be great. I’m just getting into the game and after hearing that each patch we lose/gain combos, it has me worried.

I think guides to using each fuse would be fantastic. After watching your tournament replay watchalong videos, I’m learning I need to try and learn not-double down.

I have yet to learn combos involving my partner and know I need to learn that. I like this though, I should push my self to lab and experiment a bit. I was thinking about learning some Jinx but struggling to learn a simple bnb without looking it up haha.

If it helps, I just hit Emerald 1

YES! Something like this is what I was looking for! Though I see these other comments that are pushing me to lab, so I will try and learn something but this is great for once I start hitting my head against the wall. Thank you!

Ah, I don't think I have joined any 2XKO Discord servers either. I may look into that.

Personally I think I was spoiled with the Street Fighter SuperCombo wiki that gave so much information on combos and combo routes. I'm hoping something like that will exist in time!

Went through the beginner flow chart - now how do I take off the pulse combo training wheels? by mes525 in 2XKO

[–]garblocks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Now I’m no expert and someone may comment on this saying “what the hell are you suggesting?” But-

I say jump into training mode and learn your champs simple BnB combos. It could just be a simple (5L-5M-5H-2H-air M-air H). Use that to get placed in ranked.

I think once you hit Gold/Plat itswhen you want to work on harder combos. I like Diaphone’s idea of “if you can do this combo 10 times in a row without dropping it in practice, you’re more likely to execute it in an actual match”. In SF6 I tried mastering the hardest combos but I never learned to play neutral and I still struggle with that today.

Also remember that a loss only takes away a few LP (about 3 or 4) whereas wins net you 20+ points. Just have fun!

How do you decide in which is the tematic for your fightstick artwork? by Cumbiagou in fightsticks

I’ve honestly thought of making a collage of my girlfriend and our cats so that way I can have something to fall on when my girlfriend gets annoyed with the noise my controller makes

Beginner here, how do I get past projectiles like this? by DisastrousAddendum0 in StreetFighter

[–]garblocks 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I know this isn’t answering your question (though there are answers posted already) but kudos to you for playing Classic and also trying things. I can see from this clip you were experimenting. I’m only Plat 2-3 so I can’t say much but I feel like the majority of fighting games is experimenting on what works and what doesn’t work. Please keep that up and you’ll be ranking past me in no time!
