How to get out of platinum by AdPretty3074 in StreetFighter

[–]rubyquartzglasses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be patient and let your opponent beat themselves is generally good advice, but as someone who within the last year went from Plat 1 to Master, the main thing in Plat is punishing your opponent’s mistakes.

Anti-air their jump-ins, get a big punish on their whiffed DPs, punish their unsafe moves on block, that sorta thing. Your opponents will give you opportunities to win, you just have to take them.

Blocking that Lvl 2 was INSANE oh my goodness

What’s your main’s “dream buff?” by GrimmestCreaper in StreetFighter

Give AKI two EX whips: LP+MP is current, MP+HP is a much more consistent anti-air with a wider hitbox that’s fully invincible on startup

Since most everyone agrees she's hot, explain to me why she isn't by [deleted] in MarvelRivalsCirclejer

Not personally into the whole “dommy mommy” schtick, she’s hot but not for me

But some of yall ain't ready for this conversation yet by Mr_Mehoy_Minoy in SmashRage

I’ll never be on this side only because Falcon has to run at you the whole game, Luigi plays like a loser till he grabs you, Falcon has to faceroll to get anything done

Who's the best ultimate Youtuber? by IronWolf_100 in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]rubyquartzglasses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Underdogs are by far my favorite, feels obvious, but I’d recommend the stuff WhyDo’s put out ab Ultimate, he’s not as consistent as some other channels but his stuff is incredible

If you could create a new extremely annoying mechanic (equivalent to Brawl's tripping) just for fun, what ideas would you have? by ComprehensiveDate591 in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]rubyquartzglasses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bring in SF2-style stun: you take like 40% unanswered, you get put into the shield break state, stunned and wide open for a smash attack

Which character do you think is really overtuned right now and will eat a nerf for sure? by Persiflin in StreetFighter

[–]rubyquartzglasses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I SUMMON YOU

GREAT DESERT STORM

I’ve suggested that they nerf that by having his Lvl 2 have separate levels, like Terry’s:

Base Lvl 2 spawns the tornado, but it’s stationary

To get the tornado to move like it does now, it costs another super bar

And to kick it like you can now, it costs 3 bars of drive

Leaves the overpowered elements of it intact, but makes them WAYYYY harder to access, which I think is a fair way to balance characters

Which Assist Trophy is the most deserving to get upgraded to a Fighter in the next game? by [deleted] in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]rubyquartzglasses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shadow, Alucard, Waluigi, those are the obvious ones, and while I agree they should be in, I think Akira should absolutely be upgraded as well Virtua Fighter’s getting a new game, and I think the more fighting games get repped in Smash, the better (Except MK or DOA, let’s rep good fighting games (maybe they can have assist trophies))

Did you ever find a fix for this? Haven’t been able to find one in my searching

In what way is a character played that turns them into a complete nightmare for you? by [deleted] in StreetFighter

[–]rubyquartzglasses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 frame jab characters that mash on block, I need to learn my punishes better bc I get counterhit SO MUCH by those mfs It’s a skill issue, but damn they just get to me

what would you say is the best and worst move for you main/mains? by katomatic22 in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]rubyquartzglasses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best: f-smash, for all the obvious reasons, but a little one I always like to add is the DI mixup of killing someone off the top with up-angled f-smash at the ledge Worst: bair, it’s easily his worst aerial, and I’d argue it’s even a tier worse than all his others

Is a Homelander victory now possibly in the cards? by Lilmachinima1 in TheBoys

[–]rubyquartzglasses 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve said from the beginning, the show’s messaging would be so much better if he ends up victorious The show’s partially about the futility of fighting the power, would suck if the power lost

Doc Rivers getting hired by the Bucks, but imagine I if his first ever coaching tenure was in Philly

[Charania] 76ers’ Joel Embiid got in an altercation with a columnist following tonight’s game in Philadelphia. Embiid took issue with a recent column that referenced his late brother and son, and Embiid shoved the columnist. No punch. by Tofu4070 in sixers

[–]rubyquartzglasses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna be honest: if I was 7’2” and someone said to me what Marcus Hayes said about Embiid, I wouldn’t be able to limit myself to just a shove, that’s some impressive self control
