Why are you so bad at fighting games /v/?

>>255646734
Because I don't play video games.

But I'm not you, mouthbreather faggot.

>>255646734
I'm not, faggot.

I-... I'm just only good at western fighters like Mortal Kombat. tekken is literally 2hard4me I've never won a fight and haven't cleared the arcade mode

Bur I'm not. I've won every local SF/Tekken/Blazblue tournament, and have a respectable ranking online. Stop projecting your shitty scrub nature OP.

How to I get better with King?

I've never been particularly good at video games in general.

Because I haven't practiced enough

I have a decent Valentine in Skullgirls
That's about it.

I never play them, I wouldn't even know if I was bad.

>>255646734
Just like most other things in my life, I don't try hard enough.

But not anymore. I'm giving it my all. The answer lies in the heart of battle.

Because they take literal years of practice and dedication to get anywhere remotely resembling 'good' and there's no way I have the patience for it. Props to the people who do though.

>>255646734
I'm bad at MK but decent at SF
I hate MK

>>255648074
no it doesnt
it took me about 3 weeks of playing 4 or 5 hours a day at age 12 to grind in the muscle memory for most fighting game inputs

everything past that is player reaction and knowing matchups
execution stays with you forever

Because there's noone to get good at agaisnt someone in Melee

Because I cant get myself to play them.

I like look and playstyle of BB and GG, but would never go to a local because that simply wasnt I think of as something enjoyable. On top of that I am a PC gamer, cba buying consoles to play some damn games.

I would be all over them if they were more popular on PC but hey, they arent. So no point in wasting my time especially since I cant be bothered to permanently being treated like a second class citizen by asian developers.

I dont. I would only be interested in the current versions of the games. Besides, I am european on top of that. Personally I dont even think that the genre has to be dead in europe. But the imcompetent developers are trying their hardest for it to never be alive. Guess its FPS, Mobas and RTS (if there were any) until I quit gaming.

sakura is very bad for beginners, she requires a loott of execution and a certain understanding of her footsies to be effective at all. akuma is also probably not the best for beginners considering his low health and many mixups. ryu, ken, guile, and adon are considered the best for beginners. glhf

>>255649693

>>255649814
>Sakura requires a lot of execution
Not really
>Adon is good for beginners
Also not really, he needs IAJKs to be really effective.

>>255649865
You'd think that no competitive genre fucks over PC, and especially not, europe that much after 20 years. But I guess asia still didnt get the memo and havent realized how big this hole esport thing is here and that the best players in any competitive titles played on this planet come from europe and south korea.

But hey, if they dont want to take part in this movement and make some money thats fine. Its not really impressive, japanese always were pretty stuck up and missed shit actually happening until it was too late.

I'm pretty damn okay at KoF and SG, but I'm out of practice on my Capcom fighters since all the ones I own are on XB360, and I stopped paying for Gold four months ago.

>>255649814
I hope you're not talking about AE Sakura because she was the most braindead character in the game and required fucking nothing you said at all

I don't even know. I love the Tekken games but I fucking suck at them.

>>255649835
It's weird, I can land yang's rekkas pretty much 100%, only really drop them when the match connection eats shit and loses my inputs, but I almost always drop poison's unless i just mash them out as hard as I can. I've never played fei online because I don't find him fun.
Maybe I just need to work on the timing for poison's, maybe it's weird or something.

Also vega and fuerte are the least fun to play against forever and always.

He's a Tekken character dude. He doesn't need more moves. Stop.

Because although I've got the UI and functions of every step of production in Dwarf Fortress memorized, the level of patience and repetition needed to learn a moveset in a fighting game seems like too much for me.
Or maybe it's because I'm white

>>255651394
>execution barriers make a character skilled
Yes, Viper is the most skilled character in the game and not a character designed for those who don't want to have to think about what the opponent is doing, totally.

Seriously 1 frame links aren't even hard in SF4, they're not even 1 frame in reality and any good player will drop them rarely. That shit is basically irrelevant after a certain point.

>>255646734
Because I focus too much on positioning and normals and not on getting gud with combos. I set myself up for a great combo and flub it every time.

>>255648632
>spam his low kicks 6 times every time
I assume you mean his alley kicks? They hit 5 times automatically if it's a counter hit, even if you take your hands of the controller after the 3rd hit it will keep going. Doesn't count as spamming if it's a single string.

Anyway,
>complaining about spamming
You don't know shit about fighting games.

He's good because you won't turn into a spazzy uppercut spamming scrub and actually learn how to play instead

Because I keep committing to special attacks, thinking they're the most effective path to victory.
Because I keep committing to a jump instead of staying on the ground and working where it's safe.
Because I haven't played a fighting game for three years, because I left my local group as I couldn't improve myself further and was being mocked for it.
Because I keep picking mid tier characters as my favorites, instead of playing to the top tier to gain mechanical advantages.
Because I never pick characters with a "slow" fighting style. This creates pressure for me to be offensive, when being offensive is the last thing I should do. See the first problem.

I know what I should do to improve in fighting games. But I don't do it. Because fighting games are daunting, and learning one is a big commitment. Never mind learning three or four.

>really want to get into TTT2 but the only character that really interests me is Jin because I think his parries are cool and I just like his simple looking karate dude style

Ryu is solid all around. He has an answer for everything in it's most basic form. His inputs and ultra setups are extremely easy. If you think Ryu teaches you to become a dp masher then it says a lot about how you learn

>>255652398
He also lends himself to mindless spamming of moves that new players will fall onto as a crutch, which is why so many new shotos just do either

>j.HK
>hadoken
>shoryuken every time when they are close

And that is how they learn to play

Compare that to a cody player, who would have to actually learn how to properly play to have any success at all. Characters with DPs especially should not be being played by new players.

You should have Ammy in back, first and foremost. Cold Star is a top-10 assist, and Ammy has lots of tools on her own alongside her slowdown super to help her make comebacks.

X-23 or Wesker are interchangeable in front, although Wesker needs meter less. Putting X-23 second also means you can save her for when you have more meter, then use her Level 3 + Cold Star assist for unblockable setups.

>>255653114

thanks for the help, I'm actually going to try that

>>255653282
You can say that about anyone though, everyone is fine if you play them right

What's important is that they don't develop bad habit that will slow their progress and that they will have to later unlearn, which is exactly what playing Ryu will do

>>255646734
Because I don't play fighting games for competition/pvp.

I play fighting games because I like games with in-depth hand-to-hand or swordfighting mechanics. I like games where I can beat people up with really impactful sounds/effects, and games with involved sword duels.

Unheard of, I know, but there's actually ways to have fun with games that don't involve just "trying to win".

A genre that is even more boring than F1 racing. I would rather play anything else than spend time on a fighting game.

>>255653583
I would argue the opposite.

When you "get good", the depth goes beyond two people fighting and starts to become a game of who can lower the other's health more quickly and efficiently. It becomes less about punching someone really hard and more about trying to nail that 30-hit "combo", judging distance with a mental ruler, and counting frames of hitboxes. Learning parries and dodges is as far as I like to go, before it becomes too meta.

You should not be so focused on paper theory, but develop an instinctive understanding for how things work.

If you need to mentally go through your notebook when you're playing, you're doing it wrong.

It should be 'I attack with my light punch and chase you with hadoken,' not 'so FCR into the QQD with the slashback for the wavedash, but Fawx has the matchup advantage through his hyper weapon, and Daigo does it like this so I need to figure out the reka piano hands.'

>>255653867
Every character is viable against every character in Tekken. You need knowledge of the characters, yes, but the character you're using doesn't affect it enough to change how the match will play out.

The reason why PC isn't a popular platform in Japan is a long story. Basically, it has to do with the fact that mobile networks were developed before broadband over there, so everyone in Japan was browsing the internet through phones during the early 2000's while people in Korea or Europe were playing competitive games on the PC. In general, the PC is seen as a machine for work over there, and I don't see that attitude changing any time soon.

You could argue that a new cody might develop a bad habit of using zonk knuckle in a similar fashion that a new ryu might yolo dp everywhere, the only difference being the cody would have to learn how to keep a button held down. I think you can fall into bad habits with just about any character.

In the end though, I feel like a new player should just learn who they really want to learn barring a few exceptions. I think a person tends to stay more motivated to keep with something if they're playing a character they really like. I mean if someone wanted to learn fuerte as a beginner, are they learning to play "street fighter"? No, not really because fuerte just kind of does whatever the fuck he wants and shits on traditional footsies, but you have to realize the person wanting to learn him might not give a shit about any of that.

I think it's more like if you want to learn "street fighter", a new player should pick a character like ryu; if they want to learn someone like fuerte, let them play fuerte and just make them aware that he's not really a street fighter character and you will have a much harder time learning traditional zoning, anti-airing, and footsies with him.

I rarely even get a knock down at all against a good player, I know she relies on her knock downs to get sufficient damage, but damn it bothers me that people don't like playing me me because of my choice in a main

>>255655092
American portions are like double what you get in France

It's no wonder people get fat

I wish I knew how to play Tekken.
Well, I'm still having fun half button mashing, but still.

>>255655492
Because no one likes playing a character who effectively wants to reduce the game to a guessing game, it's why so many people got fed with with AE in general

>>255655605
just keep taking turns blocking/mashing out some buttons

thats how I do it

>>255655524
But its probably even cheaper because they can use lower quality ingredients. When I was at the US and ate at McDonalds I had a worse experience than at the McDonalds in Cairo. And that says a lot, because fucking egypts dont even sell proper meat with their burgers.

>>255655692
that is only if you get a knock down though
ibuki is balanced

she gets shit damage output and takes a shit ton of damage in favor of some fast meter building, lots of target combos, and if you get knocked down, then you have to defend against the vortex

>>255655056
You're here every fucking time, man.

>>255654614
They're only playing them for the story. Don't just them. Why haven't you romanced Subzero yet, scrubs?

>>255655492
Yeah that's one of the things you'll run into if you play a character like Ibuki. People will argue you're not "playing street fighter" anymore once you get a knockdown and that you're going into just set play wake up stuff.
I think Ibuki players have to really like their character and she's one of the characters with the most character specialists because you have to put up with a lot of people talking about your "braindead autopilot mixup" or whatever they say. I can't say I like fighting her or that she's really playing the same game as most other characters, but I acknowledge the shit they probably have to endure.

Because I'm too lazy to find any local competition and I'm to much of a pussy to play randoms online.

Who is/are your Tekken main(s)?

>>255655492

Once a person uses the word "cheap", you know they're a scrub.

>>255656051

if you play ibuki your fundamentals are probably shit and you'd be a lot better by learning proper neutral and footsies

guile is a good pick, so is someone like chun that needs to play honest/solid and can't rely on random damage

anyone that needs to use normal antiairs and is low gimmicks is a good pick, esp. people with easily stuffed reversals e.g. balrog, vega, rose, fei (sort of don't get too attached to his specials other than rekka), bison (don't just spam scissors/reverse/stomp use his normals), trying to play zoning heavy with ryu, etc.

Cody actually has a ton of gimmicks that can make you fall into bad habits really easily. Add on that how advantageous a lot of his normal moves are and you learn some really awful things.
I first tried to learn the game with Cody and dear god it was bad on retrospect.

I think Fei might be one of the best characters to teach the game with, honest as fuck all round and pretty simple execution. Guile's up there too as well as Chun if they don't fall into the trap of spamming legs.

No, when you get good the game becomes much more mentally dependant. It becomes about trying to read your opponent and throw them off.

One might even say it becomes about fighting your opponent, not their character.

This is going from what most Ibuki players are like of course, if you think your fundamentals are solid enough then they probably are, you know yourself best. What do you feel are your weakest points?

I don't know all the match ups still since I only started playing SF seriously ~1 year ago.

I'm not aggressive enough to deal enough damage or keep pressure is usually why I fail I would guess.

I don't think I am really a bad player, just don't practice enough and am an online warrior which is a handicap in its own way.

I probably suck with guile/ryu cause I don't know how to really make good use of zoning.

zoning is just an extension of footsies, it just plays out in a more complex way over a larger period of time

the goal of zoning isn't REALLY to hit people with projectiles that's just bonus damage

the goal of zoning is to get your opponent to commit to a bad option so you can get a high damage punish, just like footsies, projectiles are ranged high startup pokes that force your opponent to react

the goal is to condition them to react in an unfavorable way and punish them for being impatient, which is almost always by getting them to commit to a forward jump and then antiairing them

the principle is identical to trying to set up a whiff punish, it just takes more effort, time and attention

>>255660976
If you want to improve your zoning with both projectiles and normals I highly recommend trying some Sagat, his normals are great for keeping people out and I don't need to mention his fireballs.

For pressure try Cammy or Yun, someone rushdown based that'll force you to keep up pressure to play effectively. Dudley is also good in this regard and if you're good you won't fall into the traps most bad Dudleys do.

and don't forget anon, training mode is invaluable.

Man, tell me how great it is in the future because Ultimax isn't out yet.

Also why the fuck do you have 2 mains (which is fucking impossible) in a shit game?

>>255661696
I think the reason I picked ibuki initially to learn was because she has responses to zoning and

her ultra 2 used to pay off big time, but better players never get baited into it.

anyway what you describe is not so much my play style, but it happens while unleashing sonic booms as guile naturally.
I have had good zoners force me into taking damage one way or the other with out ibuki.

>>255661870
I like ibuki for her offensive ability, i just fail to take advantage of it too often.

I still need to try sagat. I never considered him
am not a fan of cammy really.

I want to play dudley just to learn the match up, but he doesn't scare me as ibuki
most dudleys will end up rushing into a poke or whiff punish and ibuki is so safe I can keep him away.

>>255662561
I will, but I need to learn more char seriously so people will have more fun playing me at least.

and maybe have a back up
still thinking I want to learn akuma as a main alternative.

holy shit didn't mean to write a novel

>>255663283
Ah so you don't have a main then.

>>255662983
footsies is an integral part of zoning, and good zoners won't be constantly throwing projectiles when you have options that blow through them

e.g. if someone is using something like an ibuki slide to get through a projectile, that should be a high risk option that you can punish just as much as a jump -- it's all about spacing and timing

the only way to actually get around a good zoner who pays attention is to beat them at their own game, by commiting to use safer options more often like walking and blocking and neutral jumps, and contesting their ground game heavily so that they are less likely to antiair you if you eventually decide to jump

zoning is just longer ranged footsies

>>255663005

>>255663736
I don't think zoning has ever worked effectively against my ibuki

it works in the corner against most other char I play, but I can space jumping or slides so that fire balls never even come out safely
if in the corner, ibuki has raida and command dash for me to try to get out.
and ultra 2 goes through fireballs at the same distance to zone effectively in the corner I think.

I just suck at using zoning effectively myself.
I sometimes use kunai to land in front of an opponent incase they walk into it

>>255664451
it's because the players you're fighting aren't actually zoning, they're just throwing projectiles and hoping they hit you or chip you

zoning is the hardest thing to do in the game, so it isn't surprising that you haven't fought anyone who does it well

>>255664779
possibly
still ibuki has a lot of answers for projectiles
I forgot ex neckbreaker which is pretty solid.

and kunai can help correct a mistake of jumping too soon or a slow moving projectile

>>255664451
did ibuki got nerfed in ultra?

>>255665403
I'm not a pro with her, but no
you now have to make an adjustment for people with a delayed wakeup though

she is basically the same with a few new tricks
You can launch with her crouching hard kick target combo and knock people out of the air after
and her cr jab is more safe
these seem to be the biggest advantages to scrubs like me.

>>255659946
>fighting your opponent, not their character.
That's the part I don't like.

I don't want a mental battle of wits with my opponent. Literally every competitive game offers that. If I wanted a test of reaction speed and foresight and trying to remain one step ahead of my opponent at all times, I would play Quake III or some other twitchy arena shooter.

I don't care about challenge or competition or mindgames. I just want to punch some character's face in, and I want it to look like it hurts.

>>255665157
EX neckbreaker is going to eat a full punish from a smart zoner.

It's something Ibuki players love to do and it's pretty easy to exploit.

>>255665834
I recommend counseling

>>255665834
Well then you're playing the wrong game for that mate, most good fighting games are pretty shit in that regard.

>>255665871
I only do it at decent distance when I am guessing a fireball is about to come out

I rarely use it
her overhead goes over fireballs too

>>255666146
but if you think he's going to throw a fireball and ex neckbreaker and he doesn't -- he just got a full punish and you're outside again and guessing

that's zoning

>>255666029
Fucking tell me about it. What I'm really looking for is more like... a fight simulator I guess. But aside from the hilarious Toribash, there aren't many of those.

So I stick to traditional fighting games that have a really impactful feel to them. Mortal Kombat, Tekken, and Virtua Fighter admittedly aren't great for this, but they're the best I know of.

And Soul Calibur, while progressively getting more anime-like and combo-centric and steering toward the Street Fighter audience, is really the most diverse/intricate/entertaining swordfighting simulator I've played.

>>255666146
Trying to read fireballs is a bad idea man, if you whiff a neckbreaker in anticipation and someone just blocks instead then you're gonna eat shit.

Use neckbreakers on reaction.

>>255666679
it might be reaction or baiting it

idk, but I rarely use it since ibuki gets around fireballs so many other ways

>>255666652
I was assuming ex breaker was safe on block, but idk

still, it works if can catch them during recovery time

>>255652635

>>255667142
I activate EX breaker just out of range of U2

I swear zoning probably doesn't work on ibuki
can also focus dash through fireballs and super jump cancel over them

Everytime i mention the character in /v/ people flip their shit as if they get vietnam flashbacks by just hearing the name.
Even /fgg/ where the more educated players are flips their shit when you ask anything about fuerte.

>>255667743
I like him but it bugs me because my friend plays peacock and uses a bnb that on block ends in a +2 on block napalm shot.

Shit's a true string so my only option is push block (which just returns us back to the neutral where he's got the advantage) or parry which I'm gonna have to read instead from the start of the combo. Lame as balls.

HOW THE FUCK DO I MIST-CANCEL 2D ON MIST FINER LEVEL 1?????

Who do you main in TTT2?

I roll Forest Law and Bruce, maybe Feng Wei
Trying to do Raven stuff too

As a fighting game scrub, what's wrong with Fuerte?

>>255668236
el fuerte has that unblockable overhead bug that only works on ibuki in AE so fuck you

el fuerte is like blanka, only really annoying to scrubs
you have to play crazy to win with those guys and I respect them

>>255668426
He's gimmicky as fuck, when you play against Fuerte you stop playing Street Fighter and start playing the retard run happy hour.

>>255668197
Never really thought of that.

I guess the only time that the phrase
>[female character's name] is the King of Fighters!
is valid is if you're playing as King.

>>255668341
How does the string start? I feel like BB does pretty well against Peacock.

>>255668498
I think they fix that unblockable in ulta

I just joined a game in Tekken Revolution, won a few games, was called tryhard and kicked.
I don't even know how to feel.
inb4 This is what you get for playing Revolution. Enhancements were off.

>>255668682
Oh god I'm a retard I meant Parasoul.

Because I don't play them, duh.
Except Smash that is.

>>255668402
I don't feel like finding all the EVO ibuki matches or remembering every player name, but damn there was some crazy ibuki players, some recorded by by standers and not on stream.

this is how I would ideally play, its just such heavy execution and probably not so good for online play.

>>255668723
yeah, but still my friend trolled the shit out of me with it
it wasn't until the ultra update I realized it was a bug

>played the shit out of MvC2 with a bro
>play the shit out of multiple MK games at local arcade (god I miss the 90's)
>randomly play in an amateur SSIV tourney having never played the game before
>Get to 2nd place with Zangief and managed a win against the guy who got first, who used an arcade stick when I had a controller

Fighting games are amazing, so long as you aren't pathetically poor.

>>255668556
If you know the matchup and everyone does nowadays the mindgames are just the same.

You have to read what he does on your wakeup, if he guesses right he gets like 120 damage of it, if you guess right fuerte its a full punish for 300+ dmg.

>>255668839
>Smash
>Fighting Game

You son of a bitch you know exactly what you've started.

>>255667247
projectiles are just a tool, they aren't zoning

ibuki having good options to get around projectiles means you need to be more careful about using them to zone her, nothing more

a good zoner knows how you want to get in on him and takes advantage of it to punish you

>>255668984
Autism?

>>255668959

He can be a nightmare if you suck at punishing though.

>>255668746

Revo is the biggest scrubfest on the planet.

>>255669076
YOu can't start something that's already begun

>>255668959
Yeah, it's just annoying you know?
Like someone who keeps using bison's light kicks or something.

>>255669105
But mah no bound.
I wish they would remove Bound in T7.

>>255669260

Any amount of good additions is outweighed by the infinite shittiness of invincible moves that slow the game down to a crawl. I have no idea what the fuck they were smoking when they thought it was a good idea.

Very, aside from Parasoul.

Skullgirls is the easiest to play game after Marvel 3.

>>255669671
only because no one plays AH

>>255669792

Oh yes. I love going against faggots with 200 in power and endurance, it's super fun.
I also like how they run the servers on rasperry pis so every second match disconnects at some point.

Revo is a fucking mess. I can't believe how someone would spend even a cent on it.

I'm good at melee and decent at soulcaliber.

I fucking hate most fighters though.

Man, those shiny special effects are not gonna buy themselves. Your main is locked? How about you give us 6 dollars to get him.
All my mains are locked, I grinded as Kazuya doing EWGF, EWGF, DEWGF, DEWGF until I unlocked Steve just to discover his shittines with i-moves in place.
Mah Jin is still locked and I don't have will or any desire to grind for him, as I can unlock some shit I don't want.

>>255670775
what do you mean?

do you live on east coast NA?
will you teach me how to play GG or AH3 on psn

>Not being good at fighting games

Wow, how much of a casual do you have to be to not be decent at ONE fighting game? It's one of the few genres where you actually have to commit to a character, practice and plan and a game that actually rewards you for preparation and strategy.

But whatever, if you can't be good at a single fighting game enjoy your Arkham Aslyum's and Cawwa Duty.

I'm not bad, I'm just not great
I beat my casual friends, but my non casual friends beat me.

>>255670934
Harder than skullgirls at the very fucking least.

>>255670107

>>255671509
Not really.

Playing Wolverine, Akuma, Wesker, Vergil etc is very braindead domination and very little execution required, and with x-factor 3 on top of that so that everyone has a chance to win from something stupid.

Is TTT2 the best fighting game of all time?

Because I don't play enough.
I love them though, I'm just pretty ass.

I'm probably worse than the faggots that hate them.

>>255656147
Yoshi when I first got Tekken 3, because that nigga was swag as fuck. Then I unlocked Gon and shit on all my friends because they were gaylords who thought True Ogre was automatically the best character. Didn't play any Tekken again until Dark Resurrection, wherein I mained Yoshi again, but sometimes Lili. Fast forward like 6 years, and I main Asuka now because Mr. Spooky Skeleton Samurai isn't in fucking Revolution. Copped TTT2 finally, but haven't gotten to it yet. Pretty sure I'm gonna main Eliza in 7 if she's in, because she's hot to me, just as I will main female Tengu in DOA5U

Jin\Steve. Synergy is not great, but they're my mains.
I also have DvJ\Kaz and Hei\Bra teams, but only Hei can be called bad, others are abysmal.

>>255646734
Gonna probably get TTT2 for the Wii U. Does anyone actually play that? Does it have any difference from the 360\PS3 versions besides the 2 new modes and the nintendo clothes? What is a good character for beginners to git gud at?
