How good are you at Fighting Games
better than you
>>376737182
i made it to top 8 in nlbc once inarcana heart 3.
>>376737182
How do you quantify skill?
I'm the only one who can keep up a fight against our fireball spamming neighbour in KoF

ah4 when
>>376737182
Used to be above average bordering on great. If I really liked the game and had time I dug deep. These days I don't have the time or drive so I just casually play.
And nice Rival Schools pic OP. Loved those games.
I love practice mode and probably spend 100X in practice mode versus playing bros. I study set-ups, combos, and generally gather knowledge about fighters I like.
I take a while to adjust when fighting someone new so I'm no good for tournaments. But under pressure I can regularly hit fairly difficult stuff in games like Mahvel and KOF in a real match.
So maybe 6/10?
Really bad

It has a dick, doesn't it?
>>376737182
I'm ass at them, but I think they are cool. I appreciate people being good at things.
>>376737182
I used to be great at smash, but of course that doesn't really count.
I've been thinking about getting into guilty gear. over the top, dumb anime stuff really tickles my fancy and I want to play a real fighting game. do many people still play the newest one?
>>376739621
I think it counts enough, a smash player will be able to comprehend fighting game mechanics better than any other videogame players. Guilty Gear is on the come up. It's only getting more and more popular. If I was a betting man is easy it will probably get the fourth most views at Evo behind SFV, melee, and maybe Tekken.
Not great
filipinoman cut up his copy of sfv with scissors
>>376739349
of course
I'm kind of in an awkward position skill wise. Good enough to utterly trash casual players, not good enough to beat people who actually are good at the genre.
I would bet a pretty big percentage of /v/ falls in here.
Depends on the game.

haven't played for a while but my favourite character is Elena because her sexy strong black ass makes my small nerdy white cock go all hard and stiff

Did you miss all the confusion over Ryu's inputs when he was first added?
I don't even dispute that it's a fighting game, but the playerbase itself has interpretations of fighting game mechanics that seem alien to everyone else (hitstun is considered "lag" by Smash players, say that to any other fighting game player and they'll thing the Smash player is dumb without something explaining this)
>>376737182
Not very. I usually stick to doing simple things like poking, anti-airs, short combos and tick throws when playing. I don't think I've ever learned things like complex setups. I spend most of my time in training mode practicing combos I'll probably never use in a match.
I'm hoping I have enough fun playing Tekken 7 to work towards improving my mindset during matches.

>Did you miss all the confusion over Ryu's inputs when he was first added?
i don't think 12 year olds on for glory make up the most of smash's fanbase
>>376740617
Technically speaking that's actually most of the fan base. The majority of players in every tournament don't go positive. Though yeah there are levels there too.
>>376740732
Hitstun isn't called lag, recovery frames are. Hitstun works the same in both.
>>376737182
I'm unstoppable offline but online lag irritates me to no end, I'm so mad SFV has no decent offline mode, story mode is a joke and survival is shit because you have to fight for 20 minutes to reach the cpu's that actually put up a fight but if you lose you have to start from the beginning its fucking retarded.
Depending on how much I enjoy tekken 7 I might make that my main fighting game until capcom fixes the unfinished mess that is SFV.
Not very good. Against CPU I can finish the game at hardest IF there aren't continues that force you to start all over again, like an arcade mode.

In a competitive environment it can be defined as how much do you fare against others.
>super jumps by mistake constantly.
Wish you could turn that shit off its the worst feature.
>>376737182
i beat flash metroid last night...although he was playing rashid so it probably means nothing
>>376740540
>shitter threw a tantrum
Wow, crazy
>>376737182
Im Mexican.
Really bad, but I love everything about fighting games so I keep buying them despite being trash.
Execution master, shit brain.
the best I did was top 8 in SF4AE at my local.
>>376742980
So only good at KoF.
I made low tier god rage quit so I guess I could be a top32 if I csred enough to join tourneys
>>376737182
>tfw you're good enough to beat most people but bad enough to get raped at a real tourney
>>376740732
They call recovery frames lag because recover is already used as a name for the Smash mechanic of having to get back to the stage when you're knocked off.
i think I'm about as good as it gets at autism combos. I play a lot of blazblue and tekken
my spacing could be much better
I struggle to beat the AI in street fighter.
>>376737182
Better than all of my friends, but terrible online.
>>376737182
Terrible, yet I love to play them.
