There is a difference between picking a bad character or a silly one, and picking "the joke character".

>>383325472
except that there isnt

>>383325472
Nah

>>383325472
Some people legit like joke characters sometimes though. I like to play as Tao in Blazblue for example I don't give a fuck she's entertaining and I like her moves.

>>383325524
There is.

Kuma is a bad character. Yoshimitsu is a silly character. They are fine to pick.

Gon is a joke character. If you pick Gon, you are an asshole.

>>383325852
no there isnt
you are just butthurt someone beat you with a joke character
honestly the only problem is that you are shit

>>383325913
Keep picking joke characters and I'll keep stomping you. I will never go easy on someone attempting to waste my time.

>>383326032
sounds to me like you are the one getting stomped

>not letting people have fun with the game they buy
>I DONT LIKE THE CHARACTER YOURE PLAYING THEREFORE YOURE AN ASSHOLE

Easy as that. You're the asshole. If you don't like playing against someone who plays that, don't play them. Watch how fast your elitism tanks you.

>>383326032
Why are you so mad about people having fun? Are you also mad when people do ultra finishers in anime fighters?

If you lost with Roll it just means you suck.

What are some examples of joke characters?

>>383324686

>lose with Dan
>HAHAHA WOOOOOW YOU ONLY BEAT ME BECAUSE I'M NOT EVEN PLAYING A REAL CHARACTER
>win with Dan
>HAHA WOOOOOW I BEAT YOU EVEN THOUGH I'M NOT EVEN PLAYING A REAL CHARACTER

>>383326032
>implying you stomp anyone

Joke characters are for skilled players to demonstrate their prowess with.

>>383326339
Agreed, roll is god tier and you can regularly find videos of blackheart and sentinel players quitting in ranked in player matches against them,

Johns always makes you look like a pussy ass scrub. If you pick a low tier, you get the benefit of surprise factor and matchup knowledge.

I play Roll because I want to fuck her.

What if the joke character actually has something going for them that can make them somewhat viable, like N64 Jigglypuff?

>>383328307

bet the Capt. Falcon player wins most of the time too

Replace with Pichu

What was the reasoning behind this?
Is it because men can't fight when they have massive erections?

Literally just grab, space, and ken combo.
Should have picked a real character like Fox.

Does a character need to purposefully be bad to be a joke character? I always considered the joke character to just be the one with the silliest moveset.

>>383330896
Paul is a joke character, as is Bob, but both are usually pretty high tier.

Even if there were no joke characters they'd find something else to bitch about.

I would mating press Roll-chan

No she doesn't. She even calls you a pervert for looking.

>>383331045

paul wasnt always a joke character, he used to be a thin biker punk

>>383330896
A true joke character has to be conventionally bad. Having a silly moveset isn't even a must, they just have to be designed to be intentionally bad as a joke.
In fact, some joke characters, such as Pheonix Wright in MvC3, will have other gimmicks that can make up for how lackluster they are as a character. In Pheonix's case, it's his ability to go into Turnabout Mode once certain conditions are met. A simpler example would be Jigglypuff with her Rest attack.

>>383331179
Back when Capcom was good, do this kind of shit today and everyone would bitch until it gets censored.

I used to generate a decent amount of salt playing phoenix wright in marvel.
Niggers never expect his shield to take so much punishment and they never thought to grab me out of it.
I had plenty tell me that he's broken because of his turnabout powerspike, although I think it's mainly evidence projectile chip damage and finger OTG that they hate.

Stop laughing you fuck

There is not one answer to win all.

Joke characters and characters which you find fun but are not good with should be played for fun.

Characters that are statistically good and characters which you specifically practice with should be played for competitive.

Not to say that competition is not fun, however, and that traits from different categories cannot be combined.

>INB4 DUDE CENTRIST LMAO

>>383331709
Has less to do with Capcom then the industry in general. Back then individual developers had more say. And the individual developer who made MvC Roll just happened to be a thirsty lolicon.

Even in N64 smash Jiggly was more a silly character than a joke one. Her damage values on ground based and aerial attacks were actually above average compared to like Mario.
