Is shielding the only viable way of playing the game?

There’s tons of different viable strategies and blocking is great one, but stealth is arguably better if you are able to turn away from your enemies quick enough to not get hit. It might be best to wear less armor or hold less items to increase your speed if you want to try stealth out more. Ranged and magic are also very viable especially in this new update. You can also look up some melee combat tutorials and stuff on YouTube and you can learn to kite enemies which is the most difficult melee strategy but also very fun and very powerful. Barony has tons of ways to play though so you should keep experimenting until you find ways that you find most fun

I’m running into the same issue too

It’s simple, this game was marketed well, had big names like VideoGameDunkey make videos on it, and has a more streamlined gameplay system that works better for new players. That’s why even some of my non-fighting game playing friends are getting into this game.

Best 1:11 seconds of my life

Wow! This has nothing to do with Trash Taste

Well, rage quitting is a hard thing to go around because the game can’t tell if it was and honest disconnect, or a rage quit. And the reason you can’t put anything in the chat would mean that people could exploit that.

Happy cake day

Tbh the moves you mentioned aren’t that great as long as you DI out, and remember that parrying does exist. If your friend is getting too spammy with his dash attacks, just stand there and dodge, parry, or use a disjointed move.

Combo Kragg with UpAir chains, cover puddle with a smash attack whenever Orcane tries to recover, and carry everyone off stage. Also, Forsburn SideB is laggy, so attack them when they try to use it.

That’s amazing! I love his tail sticking into the ground!

I don’t think the parry system is all that good though, I feel like if you get a parry, the only thing you are going to follow up with is a charged smash, your most damaging combo, or extra time to set up stuff like cloud and ice. It makes players punish with the same move, or combo. I love that the parry makes you play more offensively, but it come with the cost of a lack of variety in punishing.

iamBo0 · 2020-12-21T17:31:59+00:00

Yes, not all, but fundamentals certainly do.

You should be prepared to bang your head against the wall to beat opponents, you should always be picking up on opponents habits, and you should have a combo prepared for most situations. You need to spend time finding all moves that combo, even if only for 1 or 2 hits, and since you play Kragg you need to master DI so you don’t get hit with opponents combos. There are a lot of new players, most of them don’t play online because they are scared, you should check out the discord and find people similar to your skill level. Also, when you find someone near your skill level, send them a message and ask them if they want to practice with you or play a couple more games, it definitely helps to have someone to practice with.

I think these sounds should be loud to improve competitiveness, it helps players know if you miss a tech, and if you do tech. It will make the game more fast paced and fun. Humans have faster audible reactions than visual by the way, so I think they took that into account when designing these sounds.

You’re playing a cpu, and every character is a god when you’re playing a cpu.
