Anti-Nagoriyuki Analysis: PapaLeo vs. TiredMage 

as you should

Nago can be annoying, but I think what people fail to realize is that if you are playing a character with a secondary resource. The decision making process is heavily predicated on that resource. Its the same reason why people go on the offensive against ramlethal with both her blades gone, why zato has a huge opening for those who waste it, and why jack-o with no minions or meter is a sitting duck. A fighting game mantra I've grown into as someone who can go long sets getting my ass beat is that if its working and beating me its my job to figure it out. Last comment since im a bit wordy is that since Nago has good damage but more health to play with than his opponent normally which makes the micro decisions that lead up to the macro end result that much more important. Like it was said in the video if you are a high roller, characters who have strong punishment will thrive off of your mistakes. I'm no strong strive player or anything but the logic behind it is solid and demands adjustments which is the core principle of fighting games.

You did good

No no . You blame the beasts , only to realize later that you ARE the beast.

Same

I noticed that he literally has a bad habit from getting away with spamming dolphins so often, kind of sad really.

@Cristo Alba Nago is honest? Huh?

@@dyssonpitcher612 even Ky got more mixup setup than Nago

@@ignis488 Ky can't teleport into your face for 50/50's and doesn't do 50% of your health off of any touch though.

@@dyssonpitcher612 you say that as if Ky mains never dash momentum foudre arc/ stun dipper or run up throw

@@ignis488 Do I realize Ky uses throw like almost everyone else (Pot being the sole exception) and uses dash specials? Yep, I do. Foudre Arc is reactable and stun dipper is a free full combo on block without meter. Hell, Stun Dipper has to be used at a specific range in order to score a soft knockdown. You are aware Foudre Arc isn't an overhead, right?

Hey I tried your advice but he landed one command grab and now I’m watching his meter DECREASE. What do I do now?

@@dylanh.3793 um play the game? Think defensively. Defense is a part of fighting games too. Watch how many specials he uses while it is draining so you know how much blood he will regain once it stops draining. If you played nago you’d understand that the nago doesn’t get unlimited pressure after landing a bite. Yes after he lands bite, it’s likely going to continue being his turn, but that’s his reward for landing a command grab. Depending on the matchup nagos bite often becomes much more predictable. If people learned how to watch and understand his blood meter it wouldn’t be such a problem. So often so many ppl act like the nago player doesn’t have to manage his blood meter at all

@@dylanh.3793 Well, like Hotashi pointed out several times in the video, you could try watching his blood meter before he lands the command grab and it'll give you an idea of when he'll want to do it. Or you can just get hit by it, die, and complain I guess.

@@dylanh.3793 u avoid command grab literally jumping or back dashing, or punishing just with a fast button, also depending on the situation a good punish could leads to nago pops BR right after the punish soooo.. doble punish, of course if he lands the command grab in the right time and with metter (rc after) your dead, the same way ur dead after you got grab by and wildthrow or potbuster is the spected outcome lol

Y’all sound like Pot players “just don’t get commend grabbed” y’all realize if he does c.S when I jump he does a 50% combo? Nago downplayers I swear….

also props to hotashi for not making this a burn session and just tearing the dude apart. lots to learn for everyone

well the problem comes in Zansetsu if he guesses right one single time during blood range and can legit tod you off of 3 hits, unless he doesn't have meter, in which case yeah punish him dont be scared

I've been killed as Asuka with Mana against bloodraged nago bc that Super took half my HP from fullscreen

Imagine doing beyblade, instantly getting a mixup and thinking you are playing "footsies".

@@ClamperBR imagine thinking that's consistent. Every time nago does that, he takes a risk with no guaranteed reward. 90 points on the blood gauge, and you could get mashed on. The neutral is all 2s and 5hs.

@@seththeace6217 Risk LMAO most braindead no risk move in the game. There's literally no real answer to beyblade

@@ClamperBR just so you know, beyblade lose to dolphin (and many other things) at every range unless it's spaced out 3/4 screen or fullscreen, and when fullscreen it whiff more often than not

Beyblade is 0 on block, you are literally in the fairest situation possible.

it doesn't link, timestamp where you saw it

@@PlagueFather Oh that's just from rc slowdown. Normally they don't combo at all. There's also situations where if they are in the air and 2k hits them high enough you can get cS too

@@brolylegendaryssj ah ok, thanks

If you are still learning basic controls than every character will fuck you up in some way

@@Aaron0000014 their mention of accidentally jumping wasn't meant to imply that they don't know how to jump. It was implying that they misinput a jump instead of something else.

@@juniperrodley9843 Inputs are basic controls in strive, none of them are very complex.

@@Aaron0000014 They're hard to do with perfect consistency. Not even top players do a quarter circle perfectly every single time; you can see at least one misinput in most top 8s.
