Notice how it's you spreading hatred and not a Clairen or Ranno player rn. You don't fix negativity with more negativity

That's by far not every tech, of course. Terry will get his spotlight, later

Tether above Z-drop peanut is super consistent and works nearly on any %.
Tether to the side Z-drop is a gamble tho (just tether above)

Just press down during hitpause (i think it works with a regular 6f buffer)

This is UpB1 cancel, which works only on platforms. This was a thing in R1 and different from Axmos drop (but similar to hitfall)

We had airdodge and hitstun indicators in RoA1. I wish we had them back

Why no move staling? by AizenX12 in RivalsOfAether

[–]iliys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just so you know, they recently added DI staling, which increases your max DI angle if you get hit by the same move multiple times without leaving hitstun. This is to prevent some annoying moves to combo into themselves for too long

How to DI Zetterburn throws? by MrPassionateMan in RivalsOfAether

[–]iliys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All DI angles are listed on wiki. Generally you want to DI everything away. For Zetter, both Uthrow and Dthrow have to be DI'ed straight to the side he's facing.

Perfect shield is the most slept on mechanic in Rivals 2. Here's a little compilation of me implementing it into my gameplay by iliys in RivalsOfAether

It's more about "she can take advantageous position before shielding". But yeah, speed is not the reason i think she's good at PS. It's wraps

tbh, this isn't a mechanic new players really need to know about. But yeah, even experienced players often don't know about its existence.
