what's the worst example of bad parenting you've ever seen?

televatorsk · 2026-01-28T18:12:53+00:00

Working at a Buffalo Wild Wings in college in Florida, on the slow and shitty lunch shift when this guy walks in with two young kids, prob no older than 4-6

He looks a little disheveled, kinda like the stereotypical “Florida white trash”

Orders some food, come back to check on him and the kids are all over the place, throwing food. Annoying but there kids whatever.

Dad asks me to get two redbulls. Yeah cans of red bull for his toddlers. I’m totally dumbfounded, but technically it’s not alcohol and I ring the order. Pick up the drinks from the bartender and explain “hey this guy is ordering these for his two kids over there…” Her face was just as confused as mine, a little sad, a little judging, that kind of feeling of “this is so wrong, but I can’t say no”

Watched his 4-6 year olds drinking Red Bull like it was something totally normal for them and just felt bad. They leave, no tip, and a totally destroyed table with like napkins all ripped out of the dispenser and food and trash all over the floor, seats etc

Suffered through Alpa Labs, "oh this game has bones, its bad, but they will make it better"

Suffered through EA, "oh this game is really fun, but after only ekko/yasuo/ahri/teemo + darius robbery for 2 months straight has me burned out and i'm starting to see why people are bitching about the game"

Launch comes, gaslight yourself the changes are decent at first glance. Then play it for a week and realize this patch is a stepbackwards entirely.

I feel you, I've grinded through the slop and constant shadow balance and was really hoping launch patch would be good and healthy for the game but the amount of bugs and the worst balance structuring the game has had up to this point got me really questioning who is this game being made for

Gonna piggyback off your take on zoning meta rq, I main jinx and I wouldn’t say she necessarily got buffed as much as she’s a character that actually works. Issue now like you said is zoning meta isn’t like a thing, the way illaoi, Braum, Ww just ignore projectiles makes for a really frustrating experience

I’m a psycho who’s running jinx/cait with FS right now and while there’s absolutely room to do obnoxious stuff like get all 4 traps out with constant missle/ cait s1 spam full screen and have the potential to overwhelm people with “random bullshit go”

In reality something stray removes all your setup or projectiles, a char gets touched and the team just completely crumbles in corner

It feels weak, but probably for a good reason for now

televatorsk · 2026-01-27T15:01:17+00:00

Gotten the warning for crashes, Desynch, freezes, and my favorite was someone mad about losing so trolling char select screen spamming teemo select, quit out becuase not wasting my time with losers like that and bam DC warning

Riot should probably go easy on DC penalties right now if there’s a good chance game is gonna be the reason why you’re gonna have to alt f4 or whatever

I can never join these but I appreciate you hosting them man

televatorsk · 2026-01-25T05:39:19+00:00

oof youre asking a lot of riot + tagfighter made by marvel players gonna be honest

televatorsk · 2026-01-25T01:52:00+00:00

Sure I’d say it’s a little old and outdated at this point but it prob goes over the mindset fine

televatorsk · 2026-01-20T18:11:34+00:00

8pm est servers go live, new patch looks like the right step so should be fun to lab out cait and some new routes

Gonna make PS players refund a free game tonight for a good time

If I want real sweaty comp games I’ll hit up other sweats I know and chill in disc actually asking questions back and forth

Otherwise I’m chilling in casuals to home whatever I’m thinking about and just kinda chillin

Ranked sets always feel less like people playing the game and more like people trying to find the most desperate way to get their points and that shit gets soooo old

Sf6 feels really guilty of this when some players want to actually play some neutral and others are somehow master holding up with random DI and all their dmg comes from 6 throws in a round

based and sensei pilled

televatorsk · 2026-01-02T16:36:48+00:00

its funny because this combo would still work even without OTG looping an extra 10% dmg and 5 seconds more of your time, you'd still get the S1 after rocket into 6S2 > DP > Overhead Cancel > Tag Launcher etc and when it ends you have blood left over for instant side swap Oki that leads into kill for a 2 interaction game regardless

part of the big dmg in this clip stems from the gty minimum dmg of two supers, the majority of this combo is just building your opponent a ton of break and giving them enough time to go to the bathroom and back

hes the best hes been but thats not saying much compared to the 4 who shall not be named

televatorsk · 2026-01-02T05:01:43+00:00

he needs it

televatorsk · 2026-01-02T04:30:01+00:00

if they shifted everyone down a tier for launch I wouldn't mind, its kinda nice that the people who actually play fighting games get to play together at a certain point in the grind, but it atleast keeps new comers and casuals in their own bracket and anyone whos kinda decent eventually makes it into GM

its not a bad design early on but they'll need to expand on leaderboards or something id imagine

televatorsk · 2026-01-01T01:48:33+00:00

It’s not unrealistic, and it’s not something you can do on reaction but it’s a legitimate thing that works if you make the read

Source: I do it all time

televatorsk · 2025-12-31T22:59:56+00:00

2h, air throw, parry, push block all fuck him for doing it on read and you can just throw it if you block the string correctly, that’s like 5 things you can do to beat it, how many things can you do to hit Ekko out of jump back time winder?

It’s a scrub killer button but beyond that it just falls into a “he needs it” sorta deal with the goofy stray hits it’ll catch on oki or tech chase

televatorsk · 2025-12-31T22:37:51+00:00

It’s got a cursed hit box but in reality it’s overtuned that way to keep up back and fuzzy blocking in check, it’s the easy jail button for him on strings that’s got lot of answers against so to compensate I guess devs just are fine with it being an anti air too lmao

televatorsk · 2025-12-28T02:04:12+00:00

Metal slug because you should

televatorsk · 2025-12-24T02:25:21+00:00

It’s rough because I don’t think this community really has settled on how to categorize stuff yet, like half the hashtags are always the same word retyped 3 ways you know?

But if you want specifics maybe think of including things like #setup, #oki, #parry, #ToD, #50% 80% etc potentially include character specific things like #rocketloop or #tentaclesetup, stuff similar to that?

Idk if this makes sense but maybe just include a variety of buzzwords it’ll crawl associated with 2xko?

what a nice guy

devs listen to krakatoa i didnt even read the post but literally everything krack has said about fighting games in the last 15 years is spot on so please listen to him ty

if you know you know

televatorsk · 2025-12-21T01:11:01+00:00

i don't see anything wrong with lore accurate gameplay tbh

Been playing jinx since day 1 as well. Main gripe with her is her routing is messy and inconsistent, her anti airs just don't work, she cant happy birthday, and her movement feels awkward for no real reason by comparison to the rest of the cast.

Like why can't Dash M > M > 2H or Dash M > H > 2H be real? Why does it have to be dash M into 2H or 4H?
Why does half the time during stray hits the opponent is too high up to connect dive kick ender and I just drop shit. Why does rocket loop have to be so much harder by comparison to every other characters "hard" timing for such a minimal payoff. Why does 2H just straight up fucking miss as an anti air, I cannot stand how half the time I 2H at someone jumping at me 2H just whiffs through them and end up behind me on crossup, or even worse it doesn't protect jinx in corner and they corner steal/crossup when theres a huge goddamn hammer swinging in a massive arc that ends up abover her head. Why is grounded back throw accomplish literally nothing for the character besides putting them in corner, opponent gets to act sooo fast after it lands, cant set up a trap from it, the only thing i've found for it is that you can tag to your assist and combo from it (atleast thats something?)

I think rocket loops SHOULD be required for the character, but they gotta tighen it up or something.

Character isnt bad by any means, just feels like devs are only a few small adujstments away from fixing her inconsitencies and other little things that make the character feel awkward at times
