You know what's crazy Diaphone? That I've been thinking that the mental skills we develop over time by playing fighting games, like the pattern recognition and predicting other players behaviors...is something that I apply to regular everyday life. I find myself subconsciously using these skills even in my marriage. It pisses my wife the fuck off that I can predict her mood, body language and even what she will eventually do in certain situations or interactions. I was thinking about the correlation between these things and my skill developed over years of playing fighters. What do you think about that? 🤔

Now that's what I call rotating through your options

So, Marisa level 3 .... ?

It's basically Marisa's damage.

I really hope ideas (and almost as important, terminology) like this will start to catch on in the fgc. Sajam touches on this sometimes too when he talks about getting good at card games or strategy games like mobas or TFT. It's one area where the fgc lags behind these other communities - most of us don't have the language to concisely discuss really important concepts, even we if have intuitive understanding of these concepts and routinely apply them in gameplay. Back in the 2000s people would show me a setup or pressure sequence and be like "this setup is nasty dude." Why? Why in concrete terms is this setup good, and when/why would I choose it over other options? These were great players and the tech they found was legit, but they just didn't have the terminology to easily explain ideas like expected value, so they used vague, subjective terms instead. We've already come pretty far since then, but there's still a long way to go. I should note that anime players are already ahead of the rest of us in this regard, they've been 🤓 from the start lmao

I agree. I go crazy when someone releases videos detailing abstract concepts for fighting games. These concepts tend to “meld” the basic structure of fighting games together, in turn, helps with understanding various situations in fighting games. Overall, makes you a better fighting game player. Thanks Diaphone🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

oh oooh ooooOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH
