I'd played Negan for 5 years professionally even taught although I never forgotten my roots as a Mokujin/All-Characters-Per-Round main what I'd done was to take the fundamental a.k.a A Neganer's Essence and tried to find ways where he lacked (He had everything but it was a gamble moveset with leniency and leeway added onto the fray) with alike characters like Shaheen,Ganryu,Kazumi and Miguel plus I always simulated other characters well-known traits even my own main wasn't designed to play that way lol
Her outfit is her SSR, SSBA is her Earth alt’s CA, Delta Clock and Emnity were combined (though, works like Delay in GBF), and her SSBA finish is based on her Summer SSR’s pose (she somehow ended up in a snowy place with her bikini, during Summer.) Beatrix and Embrasque get stronger the more in danger she’s in and she will throw herself at attacks from her allies and rush into fights with no thoughts, head empty (Embrasque likes her because she’s so unlucky and eats causality so she never dies and gained the nickname of ‘Immortal Blue.’) 5:46 - Yes and Eustace’s partner. Lore-wise, she’s the only survivor of her well-off family and had a promising future, before bad luck struck, has the closest bond to her Automagod/weapon, and everything she cooks is really sweet (which Embrasque will eat sometimes, because it has a sweet tooth.)
My thought process was different than that. I hit a plateau playing Beelzebub in a neutral heavy, defensive, whiff punish style. So, I tried out Katalina hoping maybe playing her would give me insight into playing that way better. Turns out Katalina is just better for that sort of thing and I should be playing more aggressively to draw out Beelzebub’s strengths.
I have almost the opposite problem, I can never play a single character more than 5 matches in a row. Sure, I'll go back to them fairly often to the point where they can be considered "main", but I still switch characters all the time
@@Lenn2X_ I know, the only problem is that I never feel that I learn any character deep enough. And I'm not sure if I want to call this a problem, because I think I should think that as long as I'm having fun it's ok. But it still feels wrong if I'm not optimizing my learning.
I learn everyone at least enough to know what they are and aren't capable of and switch my characters every few matches because why would I only pick one character when there's many to be?
honestly i wanna pick up a secondary but like the whole "dont do that untill youre confident with your main" thing psychs me out a bit, since like, when do i know when im confident lmao i love my kyle shoto man but i wanna play the funny hair woman yk?
Tekken 8 was my first fighting game and I picked Reina because she looked cool, when I dived into a bit more and saw she has all those stances and stuff I was just like "oh..." But that's not stopped me! She's been fun to learn :) And I win more games than my expected 0 so a win
I found I prefer playing Quick Battle with Tekken 8 more, especially if I am trying to learn things, put things into practise or warm up/keep sharp. I will dip into Ranked when I feel I am up for it. Having games with no risk, just working and focusing on your own gameplay helps me reset and get focused for ranked games. Even if I get scrubbed in Quick, it doesn't matter to me cause I can try to focus on that rather than stress about rank. Quick Battle is quite popular too so getting games isn't as big a struggle.
I always land on what feels smoother than the rest. Zato, Anji, and Baiken. With Tekken, I play Jin, Bryan, and am attempting to play Kazuya for the execution being really interesting
Do you have any tips for a complete beginner that always feels like they are just not ready to play, either ranked or even casual, and keep practicing but the practice never seems to stick? My most problem is actually the social anxiety, like fear of the other player seeing I'm playing horribly because I'm bad, and its even worse if they decide to teabag or tease or something like that. I always feel like I should first understand how to play but no mather how much information I absorb or try to learn I always feel like I just shouldn't play yet. And then I never actually play the game, and forget everything I just learned.
This applies to Tekken if that's what you're struggling with. A tip would be just play the game and don't worry about rank until you hit maybe red ranks or so, don't worry about feeling "unprepared" or that you "don't know enough", realistically your opponents don't know everything either, just mess around in ranked play with your character, try doing different things and seeing what sticks, that's how you create a gameplan and eventually you'll start demolishing with what you learned through actually playing instead of practicing. another thing is you should go into player customization and enable "magic mirror" which will stop your opponent from moving at the end of a round so they can't teabag or bm you anymore.
I've started a very simple check to see if I'm gonna play ranked or not, and it's whether or not I currently have that dog in me. And by that, I mean A. After a few warm up games, do I feel like Im actually playing well at the moment, and B. Do I REALLY want to win right now? If I go into ranked half assed, Im generally either autopiloting, or trying to play "proper" both of which are not good at all for quick ranked sets. If I have that dog in me, I'll quickly look for holes in the opponents gameplay to exploit, switch up my timing, and pull out the occasional yolo option to try and throw them off as much as possible. And if I do all that and still lose, I either understand what I did wrong and have to give it up to the other person, or I dont understand and have to do some research. If the dog is not in me, then there are plenty of other ways I can improve without putting points on the line. I can watch my replays, or top player matches, I can lab stuff in training mode, or even fight bots just to get comfortable landing certain things in a match without the pressure of a thinking breathing person on the other side. More so than execution, I believe ranked is about honing your own mentality while learning the patterns of what people look for in certain situations, which just comes from playing more games and seeing those situations more times. And nobody is perfect, I'll still get frustrated sometimes, so it's important to know when to take breaks as well. Even the best players in the world will make a couple wrong guesses and get blown up in certain rounds, there's just no way around it. The important thing is to slowly build the knowledge so it starts happening less and less.
honestly i’ve never really had ranked anxiety with fighting games considering the only rank i’d be messing up is my own. i wish i had any clue how to overcome it for games like Counter Strike or Overwatch tho…
It's just so fucking annoying when my opponent is spamming a move I can't parry, sidestep or counter, so I'll have to take the hit and guess the 50-50, but I'm an asuka main, a defensive character with no real threatening moves that aren't parries or counter attacks. I'm going to lose 80% of these 50-50s. So jarring
Honestly I played virtually every current fighting game there is to play, getting high ranks in both tekken and sf. Ranked anxiety and frustration are two things that have prevented me from playing the game consistantly, despite really enjoying it at first. Im glad this video is out, because it puts a spotlight on a very real thing. And i appreciate you for making it valid, not just sort of writing it off as a "its a skill issue" thing. That being said, I think you perfectly incapsulated, in words, the very things that people think about and go through on the regular with these types of games, ESPECIALLY fighting games. That part about detaching yourself from the result of the match really hit. Im gonna be picking up tekken and sf and will go back to this video any time I need a pick up!
For me its not that I care about rank points, its just that I know that I will get toxic players and I don't want to have to deal with them. I don't mind being terrible at game and going on a losing streak, its only frustrating to me if the other players are trying to just be toxic because I'm not good yet.
