Can You Get to Celestial if You Are Bad 

Are you ok?

​@@tswrangle1000he is not ok

Hahaha thank you. But I just got 0-2 at a tournament so I don't know if I can call myself good

@@therealperfectname at least 25 percent of the bracket has to lose every round, don’t call yourself bad because of that. It was just a bad day

​@@thegodofallakira6349I've been nervous to compete in online tournaments despite really wanting to because of feeling unworthy, this however makes me feel a lot better

Everyone goes 0-2 sometimes

Yeah, to be honest I used to be able to get to celestial last year, but people are too good now. But there is a big gap between the good and great players in there

Celestial is full of Baiken's that don't know the absolute basics

Celestial Floor is only divisive when ranks are reset. If you go into it later in the month you're going to see more people up there who deserve it.

I'll try this out more. I know I have done this before to Sol in the past, but then have gotten punished for it after. I'll hit the lab and see if it actually works against his moves he would use after Fafnir. Appreciate the tip!

Genuinely bad advice.

@@therealperfectname Fafnir is +11. Sol will punish you for mashing Pot buster in a fafnir blockstring. Sol's who don't do the real frame traps, sure, but any non-beginner Sol will blow you the fuck up for trying that. Remember, Sol can damn near TOD you in one combo on CH. It's a netplay tactic.

Intimidation factor

Losing a match after a failed execution hurts

Yeah, you can't really play pot anymore without landing your Karas. I'm sure I'll get to celestial soon. Just got to hit the lab for a bit

I'm a Pot player and I agree. Especially kara Garuda. If you don't got those, you might as well stop playing Pot. But i have a small tip while you're still mastering kara garuda and STILL get a good pressure. Use 6K (the shoulder tackle). The mixup will always be 6K--> Garuda / 6K --> F.D.B. (the flick) / 6K --> Kara pot buster. Its a good mixup and a scary one. It can also put them in the Garuda jail even without kara cancels. You can just repeat 6K--> garuda if you feel like they are afraid to do anything or jsut 6k--> potbuster them. 6k--> flick them if you think they want to jump or stop your garuda. Once you master kara garuda, you can inject this mix up too so they wont get used to your rhythm. Pot maybe the weakest character in the game, but tierlists are erased when they are in the garuda jail.

Isn't Testament worse?

Thanks for the tip. I need to get better at reacting to moves in general. I'll get there though

@@therealperfectname do you know about the pot discord

@@bassbusterx got the link? i wanna meet my glue eating brothers

Yeah, I used that strat when Jack-O came out. But I didn't feel good about it

​@therealperfectname you do what you can to win. Name of the game is adapt or die. At a competitive level, being able to abuse your opponent's weaknesses is huge and it has its place.

I just graduated to floor 3, so I'm right behind you. Just you wait

@@cn4090 Hell yeah, the path never stops for POWER.

Its ok man Im on floor 2 Its about having fun :D

What is dc, or the act of dc'ing?

@@cn4090 dc stands for disconnecting, so quitting deliberately

if you enter at the end of a month you'll just be forced to challenge again in a week

@@bassbusterx yeah, but if you just want to get there is what I meant.

Thank you! Now I just need to believe and I should win next time

If you mean Potemkins heat knuckle, it can actually be blocked! But as you saw with this Jack-o it guard crushes, and pulls you down into an almost perfect grab range!

Appreciate it man. I actually almost got there yesterday, but lost my last game. I'm so bad at the mirror, but I need to get better so I might take up your offer

​@therealperfectname Its such a crap shoot, either you do matches against random guy who mashes DP everytime, or you go against the EVO champion 🤷 If you do end up wanting to take me up, I have the same name on di scord!

She had meter.

​@@sirnarwhal9911 that Jack o didn't wake up super once so I don't see where's the problem

@@toyota6985 That was their first match and the only hard knockdown in that round that put wake-up super in question. There was plenty of reason to assume she would do that considering she has the life lead and how react-able it is to Reversal a Meaty Garuda. The Pot wanted to play it safe because he had a lot to lose if he’s wrong, but it didn’t quite pay off in the end.

@@sirnarwhal9911 could've back dashed on wake up if that was what he's fishing for

I think I was panicking a little. I think someone else mentioned that she could of wake up super me. From the looks of it I was planning on going for a meaty, which I still would of gotten hit from the super anyways

Maybe when I come back from playing Street Fighter I will be better

I'm assuming they don't play Pot much. if you don't know the match up you can get away with literal murder

My dumbass is slowly getting better. I'll get there eventually. Thanks!

The only match ups I avoid with Pot is Axl, HC, and Gold Lewis. I want to get better with the character so even if the match up isn't in my favor I would still like to be a better player. But you are right if I cherry pick people in celestial I might have a better chance in getting there

Yeah homie, I would love to run some sets against your Chip. You can message me on Twitter and I'll send you my discord there

@@therealperfectname alright then

it is not letting me dm you on twitter, weird

Yeah, I've been practicing that. I can do it in training mode fine, but in real matches it's a lot harder for me

@@therealperfectname fax i understand the struggle(why must opponent be able to jump)

I failed it at least 10 times. Hard stuck at floor 10.5

Cheat Box (Hitbox)

I appreciate this ngl

Pick any character, learn something annoying, find a low level opponent (preferably another challenger) and spam that thing. You just need to beat 2 opponents.
