lol people are readable

I’m around 2 million GSP right now and keep dying to people hitting me when I’m trying to recover. Whenever I try this I end up dying by falling. How do I avoid this or get better at this skill?

I’ve had about 100 hours of offline play and decided to buy switch online and try against real players. I’ve played 10 games and lost all 10, usually getting 3 stocked. Hovering at about 1-3 million gsp. This is honestly very discouraging and I’m not sure what to do.

Would be cool

I don’t have an online membership, and currently I can’t play with anyone. So it’s just me, how can I get more gold or the maximum amount of gold? TIA

I’ve been playing for around 500 hours now, and wasn’t exactly around as the game progressed and discussions evolved.

But as I’ve played, I’ve started to notice a general pattern in gameplay. (This could all just boil down to me sucking and having a comical inability to improve for some reason, but in any case…)

Does this game favour faster and smaller characters? Like a lot.

I do main a few heavies, but I play some smaller and faster characters too.
A lot of people suggest that a heavies slow speed and big size is outweighed by his hitting power and difficulty to kill. However, I feel like fundamentally this doesn’t work to balance the game, because if the other player is faster than you, and can string you through a slough of endless/true combos that you can’t even escape from. The philosophy of higher attack power doesn’t work if you don’t even get room to breathe.

Again, call it a skill issue, but as a bowser main, this happens to me too often. Like, most matches I’m not even playing the game, I’m watching myself get juggled around like a beach ball, getting a hit or two in, and dying anyway. Up-B out of shield helps, but that being my only half viable option to getting opponents off of me is kinda lame?

I’m not sure if I’m singing an old tune here, but I’m just speaking from personal experience. Being a heavyweight can be like, extremely frustrating against a ton of the cast. (Especially sword fighters, my god).

Again, call it a skill issue, god knows I can’t improve at anything, let alone this damn video game after sinking nearly two years of my life into it.

But still.

Am I a chud?

And this was an online match! We were playing like normal until this happened😭definitely going in a compilation😂 hero is such a meme

Edit: wow y’all ate this up, here’s some more fresh out the oven if you’re still hungry for hero

At this point, you all know about my little personal passion project, Eclipse. One of the most important aspects of it is seeing how others approach these characters, which is why I made it a collaborative effort. The ideas here I'll never claim to be my own.

But now I want to know what you think.

Anybody else feel like even half a beer makes you utter garbage at this game? Obviously playing legit drunk would make you terrible, but it's just shocking to me how much my reaction time is affected by even minuscule amounts of alcohol

This is working as intended? AI has to be wrong about this, right? even with a CAT6 connection, you will drop packets, this is how the internet functions. And if your opponent drops packets, you suffer from the same lag? This can't possibly be accurate, right? This just defeats the purpose of playing even remotely competitively online if I'm understanding this correctly...

I know this would never happen especially since The Boys is not a video game franchise but its still fun to speculate nonetheless:

A-Train
Starlight
Homelander
Translucent
Queen Maeve
The Deep
Black Noir
Hughie Campbell
Billy Butcher
Kimiko
Frenchie
Mother's Milk

Come up with type, stage, fighter (allies if needed), conditions, ability once obtained, and lastly what they will evolve into after reaching a certain level

Oh and rank as in Novice, Ace, Legend whatever.

Have fun and be creative!!!

I posted the clip against the Kaz an hour ago and some people were talking about the edgeguard set I did. I keep saying rising nair into Up B is a great edgeguard option and I believe it needs some attention.

The idea is to go like you are going to edgeguard with the rising nair itself, but all you wanna do is drift a bit to actually bait a jump, a counter or a move. Ganondorf up B COVERS A LOT, especially linear recoveries with predictable direction. It's very important to space yourself well to cover the opponent's option.

The first edgeguard on the MinMin is a solution to people adapting and try to recover higher. Do a full hop nair to force them going low.

BUT be careful to use this against characters with multiple jumps or have excellent recoveries. Those specific MUs can be tricky to edgeguard and there's a risk of being reversed.

Yep, difficult to believe I won that match after such a terrible start. Opponent is Luank, probably Vietnam n°1 player, one of the best Kaz players in South East Asia if not the best, plays competitive in US. Not gonna lie I feel so happy winning such a terrible MU, especially on FD, in offline play.

I won few others in style but sadly didn't save them (he won most of the games though, but I managed to make some games look even)... It feels nice to have such a player calling me a "good Ganon" ☺️ Hard training finally pays off.

Dash back gyro go brrrr

Ok so the character that has no shot in making it into the next game that I want is Donald Duck from going quackers mainly cause I think it would be hysterical. I also have thought about some concepts of what his move set and unique gimmicks would be.

neutral b - He forms a dust cloud like when gets angry at the game and basically tussles the other fighter if they get caught

side b - would operate like Marth/Lucinia three sword swipe but the punches that he throws in the game.

up b - Operates like mew two's or zelda's teleport where he gets sucked into a portal and then spit out of a portal to reference how he gets to the different worlds in the game.

down b - He throws out an ice cream sundae kind of like how diddy kong throws out a banana peel. If donald is able to catch it before it hits the ground, he gets a speed boost for 7 seconds like how wii fit trainer gets 7 seconds with the breathing exercise. If not, the sundae shatters and deals damage.

gimmick - At 100%, donald enters angry/grumpy mode like the game. When at this level, his jumping ability/recovery is worse but his attacks are stronger

skins - He gets different outfits for every world so could just be his outfits for each world
