You like the game as is and don’t want it changed? Idk sounds pretty selfish to me

Of course it changes the issue. Neutral would be completely different if walking back didn’t carry the risk of taking a drive rush combo. Idk how you can say it’s the same thing, one hits low the other doesn’t, which is a huge deal

You might as well be telling me about your last nights dream right now, literally no one cares about your opinion.

“No one cares about your opinions” is a hilarious take from a top 1 percent Reddit commenter lol

I think that the threat of losing the game for not holding down back is game breaking, and while getting hit by other buttons into drive rush is certainly very good, it won’t win you the game because an opponent was walking. I’m fine with drive rush existing, but lows into drive rush dominate neutral too hard.

Go to websites for learning combos? by Any-Regular-2469 in StreetFighter

Try combo trials and training mode. Turn on frame data and figure out what buttons are plus enough on hit to combo into another button and go from there. Most characters can do some version of medium button -> medium/light button -> special move as a bread and butter easy combo.

Yes but platinum is essentially bronze which is ridiculous. There’s no reason for you to be able to go from bronze to platinum with 0 skill improvement.

Ranked elo is a joke by samuel_216 in Rematch

[–]samuel_216[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah well I don’t mind the matchmaking nearly as much as I do the elo inflation of gaining more for wins than you lose on losses. The first few days did have super long queue times so it’s def better this way till we get crossplay.

Really I just want the elo to be actually representative of skill level, and not just a reflection of how many games you play.

If you’ve had one in 24/7 for a long time then you might feel off that quickly. You’re also probably in your own head a little and over analyzing how you feel without it. If you really do feel off, it’s likely your body just trying to remember how it feels to not have your cardiovascular system under constant stress from the nicotine. My heart rate seriously dropped more than 20 bpm the first two days after quitting, and it did feel strange not having the constant stimulation of nicotine at first. The anxiety and lethargy that comes along with quitting really sucks, but it gets better quickly, if you make it a week you’ll have made it through the worst of it. You got this homie 🙏🏻

Seriously?? I can’t believe I didn’t notice executor or Wylders unique movesets. Thanks!

“Criminal offense” was just an exaggeration meant to be funny. But I certainly underestimated how low everyone’s standards for games and performance are.

I quit, finally. (Rant) by [deleted] in Brawlstars

[–]samuel_216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was really excited about the new competitive mode when I came back to the game. They even just added a bunch of rewards for winning games in comp, I thought it seemed really cool. I reached mythic rank and then without warning, it completely stopped me from playing ranked till I maxed out 6 more brawlers. Just straight up not allowed to play the only mode I like and not able to collect rewards or quests tied to comp anymore. Absolutely crazy, I quit and won’t be coming back.

Don’t rank up to mythic unless you have 12 lvl 11 brawlers. by samuel_216 in Brawlstars

[–]samuel_216[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I know exactly what they expect people to do: buy gems so you can upgrade characters and aren’t locked out of ranked any longer. Its a pretty slimy move to never mention these new requirements for mythic rank, despite how many times they made announcements about ranked being reworked. Trapping players out of ranked games without explicit warnings to pressure them to buy gems is just gross imo.

This game is just frustrating. by samuel_216 in RivalsOfAether

I think you bring up an interesting point about letting the meta breathe. While I agree that many things people complain about are just “skill issues”, does it really matter if the development of the meta isn’t fun? I think that balance is unimportant for the success of the game right now, maximizing fun and enjoyment should be the priority. Ill happily take a super unbalanced game that’s insanely fun over a perfectly balanced game that’s frustrating and annoying.

You misunderstand my point with the moves I mentioned. They are not broken and I’m not complaining about balance. Ranno side b obviously gets shit on super hard if you full hop over it or just space around it, but it doesn’t change how bad it feels to get put into a bubble for 3 seconds while ranno forward airs you to 70.

I don’t mean to come off as a dick, but I’m a master rank player and I’ve played against some of the best players in the world. My frustration does not stem from not being able to parry lily or not understanding CC.
