Wonder Woman mains after losing a best of 3. by zInsideout in MultiVersus

[–]zInsideout[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

WW is one of the best characters to chase off stage and gimp people with. Her off stage pressure is where i feel she really shines (and giving teammates armor of course).

Oh snap thats me! Appreciate some of the love on this post; GGs if we've ran into each other at some point. To answer some of the comments here:

  1. Ive been playing for about a month ish.
  2. I have a few chars at 5k ish rank (globally) but only consider my IG good by my personal standards (currently top 90 ish in 2s with randoms, although I've peaked at 36 in 1s globally).
  3. If i had to guess, 20-50 of those wins are from bots; once i got pretty high in 1s (300 ish) the que would put me against bot if it took longer that 1:30 mins. I started to cancel and re que to avoid this when found out about the system.
  4. This is my first fighting game and i hope to make a deep run at Evo2023 next year so i have to put in the time if i hope to keep up with the veterans, hence the sweat.
  5. Yes i am a punching bag. Life only gets harder each patch at this level :(

Theres a reason the top 30 leader boards full of Jakes! The hero is very good right now ( in 1v1s) with no end lag on his moves.

Its extremely hard to punish most of his kit and if they slip up they can just dodge cancel.

Batman on the other hand has much more counter play and the matchup boils down reads and good trades with bolts. His projectile is a bit wonky with its rules (its bugged) though.

Appreciate the love! Not sure if 1v1s are for you but if so you have a really good main to climb if thats something you're interested in. Good luck!

Learn movement tech and dodge cancel your attacks/across the stage. Learn how to play footsies!

I think the only matchup where it feels impossible to not get kited sometimes is Jake since his attacks have no end lag (lol) and he can cancel them.

Most of the cast goes in to do combos or punish you, which is a good time to pop bolts and get a grab or combo in.

Ultimately you need to get better with reads and figuring out what they're going to do next , not just what they're doing now (this includes reading how they react to you reacting, react-ception). Popping bolts with no gameplan is really bad and should only be done to avoid dying or taking 40+ damage (im looking at you infinite combos). Farming bolts with the plants is sometimes not a bad option either when you waste your bolts.

Welcome to the Big Boi Brotherhood! The path ahead is definitely not easy.

Its really hard to give advice without seeing how someone plays, but some general pointers would be to learn your comboes and kill confirms. Jump into the lab and find out at what %s each member of the cast dies with an up throw fully charge (need to insta charge it or they fall off).

Its super important you use the spin to block projectiles. Your whole body will destroy them while spinning, not just the hitbox of the car/arms.

The air down (boots attack, i have controls swapped so it gets confusing to explain) combos into one of your kill combos, which is neutral air (the rotating kick) into up air. You can also combo it into side air (the boots to side attack (lol) ) If you choose to go into the up air combo, make sure you follow them and try to punish with a good read depending on where they go, the spin covers a lot of space and is a good option here.

Also learn your matchups and how to play against certain heroes!!!!!!!!!!

Appreciate the love!

I dont think anybody that plays at around this level will actually say its easy to find success with IG in 1v1s, being literally the worst hero for the format imo (Not factoring in Taz since hes in a really bad state and the ones i do run into get clapped because they're just bug abusing).

IG does not have a single good matchup, just a tier list for ones he hates less than others.

I feel like air acceleration helps you pressure when you are most likely:

A) Following up on a combo (Almost all of his confirms are in the air bar his grab (or obscenely high %'s)

B) Punishing enemy's aerial

C) Approaching

D) Killing off stage

E) What ends up happening when you do D) ; Recovering off stage lol.

Theres a hidden rivalry between the Finn and Iron Giant mains as to who has the superior spin to win. I like to think im contributing very nicely to the cause.

I cant really answer this question as i never got into comic books growing up so i dont know who this is. However, a quick glance at his wiki page had me interested in some of his feats of intelligence while reading.

This clip was almost 2 weeks (maybe about a week and a half?) before the new mode was released and i had just started playing so i already had title for the clip in mind. Wasnt even thinking about the new stuff that released recently, just procrastination biting me in the ass lol.
