AI Patterns And How To Exploit Them ft.  

*Late to his own collaboration 🤡 Great Job Kevin :) It was a total pleasure working with you. It would not have been possible without all your work. To the Players: We deeply wish this video can help you all. Specially to our new players :) *As long the Devs do not enhance the AI 🌚

Imagine ai in 5 years after this vid.

Video: _showing clear researched patterns and A.I. behaviour_ Eliza A.I. : *BARGING THROUGH X INFINITY*

One extra thing about charge attacks is that usually when the only one the player uses in a match is Eliza's Sekhmet attack, the AI won't counter it outside of occasional grabs. However, if you do Eliza's regular charge attack (alligator mouth) at all, then the AI will suddenly have a brain and use whatever resources they have to counter the Sekhmet attacks.

Tip based on my personal experience: Big Band's AI will instantly use his unblockable blockbuster if you block one of his dash attacks

feel kinda proud that over my years hyper-casually playing this game I figured a lot of these out myself. and yet I still mostly just spam snake bite with 3x wulfshoot on anything mildly difficult

Annie is also good for charge attacks AS LONG AS THE ENEMY IS IN THE CORNER, they have been a part of my Annie corner gameplay for some time now, and unless i'm abusing them, i'm always getting a couple of nice openings with it. You will need star power to actually get great value out of a charge attack, but even activating star power just to get the DP aerial dash will net you some nice damage. This is specially useful to get damage on some annoying Model Leaders by using Charge > Dash Attack > Jab 2 (3 hits) > DP with aerial dash > Juggle > Star power Re-Entry > Juggle > BB. This combo is 100% aerial, so it wont be blocked by Model Leader. With full SP you can even get a full Star Power activation from a charge attack Charge > Dash > Jab 2 > Sweep > Star Power > Jab 2 > DP, and from there you do your usual Annie.

This is a video I’ve always thought about someone making but I haven’t seen before, definitely very informative to have this all down somewhere. Also seeing a part of the strings that hold this game together is definitely a big moment. You kinda feel the patterns when playing, but to see it this direct was definitely an eye opening experience

EXTRA: When the AI gets hit by a G5, if you block the AI will try to immediately attack yout, basically ensuring a PERFECT BLOCK.

Eliza be like "Charging through!"

This INFORMATION HELPS a TON. To force Ai to attack, i usually do D1>G2>D1>G4>The next move is up to you, either timed it with your normal hit or do special move or blockbuster. Which really is very helpful to pressure your opponents more in time.

Since Freeze Frame was mentioned, I'll say that her interaction with the AI is a bit interesting to me. The AI will almost always try to swap out at 5 stacks. At close range/medium range, the AI may still try to attack you, so you can bait out hits and carry on as normal. But this is luck dependent, so you have to go for combo extensions, stuns and good block strings. However, if you get to long range, they'll generally tag out. This seems to be especially true after eating something like bang bang bang full screen. You can exploit this to land free hits and combos on opponents tagging in. After the tag in it becomes a bit easier to stall since the opponent has to react like normal while the tag is on cool down. I use my Freeze Frame a lot, and I've found great success with Box Car, Shadow of Impending Doom, Argus and Bang Bang Bang (last slot I just leave on Hi Hi Birdie). Impending and Bang Bang Bang serve as combo extenders, and Impending also has a very high chance to proc stuns at level 15. Additionally, Box Car is a great mid and long range opener once you get a feel for when opponents will suddenly attack out of block, or as a way to poke to keep the opponent blocking if timed right. Between the combo extensions, throws, and block strings you can easily stall out for the stun if you choose. However, the knowledge of the AI's interactions with Peacock is critical. You have to have a good investment in her, knowledge of the AI, and knowledge of how to manipulate the AI into doing what you want for her to really shine. Once you have it down she's phenomenal and fairly consistent, but otherwise she's cumbersome and awkward to try to use. That's true of peacock in general, but more-so in my experience for Freeze Frame. It gives her a higher skill floor and ceiling imo than the other peacocks. I think a lot of players don't take the time to practice with Peacock though, so she gets written off more than she should, especially since the tag outs can seem difficult to deal with an counter productive. I would be curious if anyone else has thoughts on this.

This one was unexpected, but damn it's nice content. Very useful for people like me who are unaware of the AI intricacies and machinations, basically a must watch

Sometimes I feel as if the ai is more aware of my moves than before. I recall that by the beggining of the week, the ai is pretty much brain dead, reaching the end of the week it can even predict most moves I do.

Loved the video and the editing was so good! I also learned some stuff from this. I kinda figured this stuff out but you helped put it into words instead of just "they sometimes do this sometimes" lol

Very nice vid Kevin easy to understand and straight to the point

I was literally binging your vids and i saw a new upload and i went😮. Good stuff

Oooooooooomagaaaaa. Gracias Kevin y Nadie por hacer este video para nosotros 🥺, es toda una joya ❤

Awesome stuff! I learned something. Great vid Kev and Nadie !

I needed a video lole this. Once you resch to a certin point, you must cheese thr AI or you'll be one shoted.

Pattern #4's examples felt way too familiar. Thanks for pointing it out explicitly! 😄

Kevin i got a shiny splitting image after watching ur fukua video. Thanks for the luck 😊

Finally someone talked about the ai patterns .... Thanks🗿♥️🗿

You said the pattern to cheese blocks is D1 / G2 / D1 / G4 / Launcher or Move, but why did it sometimes work using D1 / G1 / D1 / G3 in the video? Is there a rule to it? Maybe only some fighters can or against some fighters it works and with others don’t?

Skullgirls team watching this video: write that down, write that down!

I know that double and parasoul absolutely love dash canceling into block

Great that my lady is good reference for this A.I pattern theories.

Bloody valentine or surgeon general?

3:31 I'm pretty sure Fortune AI basically takes one more D1 or G4 until she decides to counter. When other characters would try to retaliate she just holds block, but of course keep in mind that Fortune AI in general is more volatile (and more cracked) than other fighters.

There's a few things I try to exploit. Pain wheel doing the low after the basic 5 still catches me sometimes. Excited to see what I've not noticed

Fun fact on Umbrella AI ive noticed. Umbrella mix up on umbrella does not work and opponent will not let down there guard. She is excused from her own manipulation mix up.

mrs fortune with head and robo can just do d1,g2,d1,g3, launch for gbt (Guard Break Tech)

Ah nice timing since i kept seeing denys abuse the guard drop tech on umbrella and wondering whats the pattern

Not about Ai is that they do not know what to do against Beo or Fukua dash for some reason

This is what makes skullgirls A.I annoying if the A.I's health is lower or is 25% then they would choose to tag out, this is common especially in Master storymode, this can also happen if the A.I has 50% health(this depends also on where you are standing on the map if your further than the A.I they would block if your near there is a small chance that they would combo but will either block or tag out) Thats all!!

Nice content Kevin, and glad to know why the AI suddenly goes into ultra instinct when abusing characters with convenient intercepts too much🗿

buen video kevin pepino (ya lo termine)

Could you someday make a guide that generally advises what type of stats to choose for each character? I'm asking you because within the game I don't think it's well explained how to improve one's moves, and although I've been playing sgm for a while, I still think I'm making a lot of mistakes.

thanks for the advice as always, kevin. i struggled to overcome the notoriously menacing big band AI. now, i can finally defeat private dick!

You forgot to mention Bella ai will stay blocking forever while low hp at the last 30 seconds.

I highly appreciate all your contents which have helped me and my mates a lot in the game. It will be much better if I am allowed by you to re-up this video and others interesting pieces of in-game trick to my community in my own language. Please let me know if I can do it. Thank you and respect!

Gg

Are there any patterns on round start that people have noticed?

I love fighting against a Fukua with my Fukua, cause then it’s just D1, stunlock, D1, stunlock until one of us uses a BB 😂

Is free for all pvp in this game balanced? What happens if two 40k fs players fight each other?

I know thats not related, but 2nd encore its having more better ai, a beowolf made me struggles, it was not with my Main, but it still make it trough like one char

Hey Mr Pepino, what's the Discord server you use to see the stats of fighters?

For me Eliza AI is easy... Painwheel AI is hard

Just spam charge with val for ez wins

can someone tell me what D1 or G4 is i dont really understand it

Haaaaaaaaa

el video que skullgirls no quiere que veas be like:

Goddamn Mindflayers are horrible

Crees que la ia aveces es random? Also ojala hagas colab con angelluzo

incredibly easy ai to exploit i just be hitting 40 streaks on prize fight that i shouldnt be hitting

Inb4 Devs buff the ai heh

wtf is a d1 and g4

Yawn, pvp is better
