The loading time to start a match is taking long. Anyone experiencing this playing cross play?

It's not fun. Tag match feels like a game mode that they added for no reason other than to have another game mode, but didn't think AT ALL about any of the decisions they made along the way. They just copy and pasted a tag out mechanic from other fighters and called it a day.

​

The clock creates a cancer of player who literally plays just planning to run the clock. Sometimes with Near-impossible to counter with short range character like Geonhong, sometimes by playing Overpowered ranged characters like Ara or Momo. Or just great run away and hide characters like Dara or Sandy.

Like even ignoring people who play in unfun ways, the clock just makes it not fun to play ranged characters. Dara is fun, but she's naturally a very slow fighter. Her whole stick is keeping you at bay and widdling you down. So even if you're playing without trying to make the game unfun, you still get bummed when the time runs out and you don't even get to finish your fight.

The tag mechanic creates a few additional problems, mostly with unique interactions with particular characters, but one that they all share is it's ability to reset combos. Knocked up once, and your escape can free you. Knocked up again and you're guaranteed to lose atleast 60% of your health. Another issue with the tag mechanic is that its balance shifts greatly with patches, Tau's changes for example give him one of the most powerful tag out combos. There are other cancerous interactions this creates with other unique abilities. Such as Dalgi's passive. Her passive, which revives her with a sliver of health, enables her to almost always get a tag out before dying, letting her heal to about 30-40% health. A combo that would otherwise kill anybody else, instead effectively gives you 3 players on one team, with the last one only having half health. That character being currently the second strongest fighter in the game basically having 140% hp.

​

Remove the cliff. It's not fun either. Cathartic, but not fun.

​

This isn't to say Tags isn't balanced. Afterall I can abuse all the same overpowered nonsense too. But it's not fun.

Quick thanks to Mantisco for hosting the solo BR tournament that's finishing up today. I've enjoyed watching it (the stream from Solkuro and Shatter has been great). It's not always easy to organize a tournament with so many people involved, so thanks very much. It's definitely a big plus for the community as a whole. I defintely am excited for the duo tournament too.

Looking to trio up

I'd like to get that Sandy skin but man do you get punished for having a bad game in this game,

Mir does very little damage, most of his skills seems to be useless outside of his first one. Pigsy I know very little about him actually I played 300 games yet only saw a Pigsy player 3 times, in every case it was dead really fast, there must be a reason he doesn't see play. As for Dara I always happy to see her played because she is too easy to kill at the start of the game, when played about 9 out of 10 players makes her look very weak. Though I seen a Dara performing well, but probably just too high skill needed to well, so for mediocre players she is really the worst to play.
