@@ethanwilliamson7795 honestly I had to improve my general play to get to my rank, like sidestepping more, and being a lot more patient against certain characters
You DESERVED this promo! BEST LARS VIDEO I EVER SAW. PROOF you DESERVED this GoD rank: 1. TOTAL MASTERY of Lightning Screw - Only the BEST, HIGHEST LEVEL Lars MAINS have mastered the ART of using this move. It takes years. Understanding the application of it is key, and on top level players no less. Kaizokulars has NOT mastered this move yet, but you have already. 2. MASTERY of a move I have recently and fondly nicknamed "Testicular Fortitude" - SEN 3. We all know why. And, again, you have demonstrated consistent success using this move, PROVING you have the knowledge and experience to know how to MITIGATE RISK, AND MAXIMIZE REWARD. ANYBODY can play Lars using just his safe moves, but the key to being a high-level Lars specialist is being able to consistently utilize his unsafe but highly rewarding moves. You need knowledge, experience and strategy to be good at this, which you have already demonstrated. Every time SEN 3 hit, I laughed maniacally like a psychopath-That Bryan player may figure out why he ate those SEN 3s.......6 months from now, lol. 3. Instantaneous adaptation. You adapted to that Victor player's linear bull5h1t the very next round. Every time I saw that you were having a challenge with an opponent, you quickly adapted before I could even say anything to myself. You can also keep adapting too - yor readapt to your opponent's adaptations, like that Lili player. You understand Bruce Lee's metaphor to "be like water". 4. You think outside the box too. You know, why DO we always have to perform a WS move after hitting with a low and at +5? Especially when your standing followups WORKED every time? And this was all executed on HIGH level players too. What you performed was actually a damn Feasibility Study, netting great results, as you did this 2 to 3 times, and were successfull in every attempt. I only know one other Lars Specialist that plays like this - Lmg_Mob. He was my favorite Lars Player going on 7 years............WAS. He is my #2 favorite player now. You researched, drilled and trained your way here. You put in the work. I could go on, but if you ever start to question yourself, just come back to this post. You are God of Destruction FOR A REASON. YOU EARNED IT. 👍
Well done and congratulations. An inspiration for Lars players, for sure. Subscribed! What track is that begins at 10:59? It goes hard. I could not find it in the Jukebox (perhaps I missed it).
Wont get tired watching your lars rollin on your oppenents faces , even tho when i try it ppl be sending their entire arsenal of hopkicks and powercrushes lemao , congrats man
i knew GoD was going to happen , it just came down to you getting into ranked again and you did it. congrats. ill watch this video alot for motivation to get myself on ranked and try to achieve the highest rank possible with Lars. so are you going to work on another character? or take a much deserved break? congrats again on GoD
Isn't it usually one of your most disliked characters that you end up fighting against, to get promoted. Lol Just makes the victory that much sweeter imo. Congratulations!
Great job Niko this was so inspiring!🎉 what do you think of organizing matches against other GoDs to keep you at the highest level? Ofc thats after your well deserved break 😄
Congratulations Niko 😎! Quick question, in order to get out of red ranks, what should I focus more on? I’m trying to do a lil of everything, better combos, learning frame data, knowing match ups, but I feel like I’m trying to learn too many things that I’m not efficient in them rather than focusing on one thing if that makes sense?
Great job brother! A question from a clueless raijin; why don't i see more people using b 1 plus 2 to wall splat as a setup? I find a lot of success w it. Is it a bad habit I should avoid?
b1+2 is good for hard reads but using den3 at wall is better in general because u keep pressure and youre also in plus so guaranteed mix up. B1+2 only works with the conditioning of lows in later ranks. Den 3 tracks like b1+2 and gives u plus frames so when the oppontent blocks u dont give away your turn
Congratulations 🎊. Now you're free for couple of weeks. Please touch some grass, take sunbathe on your skin, just smile and look forward at the sky. (GJ mate, I'm Lars main only cuz of you. You showed me the power and interesting active gameplay 👌) ((Waiting for FahkUr(m)Um or Marduk, cuz interesting in New things, btw I bought SF6 and want to learn how to play on Akuma and M.Bison(Biden))
Adjust on the fly. Also downloaded him a little bit. There'd be times where if he thought I'd do a low, he'd respond with an orbital. There's risk to that because lars can juggle you
