@GuidoHunter_Toki: lol we're using the same characters, though I may be dropping Ragna for Bang. Bang Install is too awesome and his Astral Heat is the embodiment of the hotblooded spirit of justice itself. 獅子神忍法・熱血最終奥義・「究極萬駆」 Shishigami Ninpo - Nekketsu Saishu Ougi - "Kyukyoku Bangu" Lion God Ninja Technique - Hotblooded Final Secret - "Ultimate Bang" (Bangu actually means Ten Thousand Sprint) @Duo: I claimed Rachel all the way back in page 3 of the thread But I still think Noel is more moe, I die everytime she takes off her beret.

I need to give Racheal and Arakune a decent tryout before settling on my main, but they will really have to click with me to drop V-13 for them. Got to Rank 11 effortlessly with V-13 and double perfected a rank 20 tager lol.
Also flowchart time! |

I can't even wait for the PS3 slim or price cut. Quote:
Arakune and especially Rachel have a much higher learning curve than Nu.

I find the best characters in dealing with Arakune are Rachel(good zoned attacks allow her to keep her distance, thus harder for Arakune to spam his curses) and Nu(in my opinion the best in dealing with Arakune). He should have a lot of trouble spamming considering Nu has swords that can hit full screen and when Arakune gets hit the curse cloud vanishes.

I'm seriously wondering what do people consider "cheap stuff" =/
If it's something that people have a hard time countering.....well, good luck, because if you give in against such tactic, then I hardly think you're also a good player. Don't you feel something is wrong when you fall for the same trick more than twice? Of course the pro with such tactic is way more dangerous, since the moment his trick got blown out, he switches to other technique instantly, but most of the time when you can counter it, then it's your win already. I find Carl's looping air combo is more dangerous, but not many people can pull it off. Btw, this Rachel has serious skill, but I must say Hakuman's combo is hurt, really hard. I like how she uses her "wind".

Most people that spam, while it may be annoying, its not like they are difficult to beat. I think the only character you can definitively classify as cheap is Hakumen soley for his overdamaging combos. Arakune while he can become annoying with his bug curse attack, if you have someone who is skilled enough with a character give it their all against someone who is spamming with Arakune, he shouldn't be that hard to beat.

This is especially true for competitive games (ie. ranked matches). If I see someone unable to deal with a certain tactic/move/special combo, and no matter how many times I do it the opponent doesn't seem to learn, you can bet that I will keep on doing it until either the enemy learns to counter it or they're dead. Granted, how easy to counter a certain tactic/move/combo differs with each character, but hey, that's why matchups are never straight up 50/50 unless its the mirror. Its a fact that fighting games are never balanced despite how hard they try to make it out to be. Seriously, you don't suddenly change your gameplan if its working... no, that's not how being competitive is. Being competitive means achieving victory through any means outside of cheating, and if that means spamming the same move over and over again because the opponent doesn't know how to deal with it, then its fair game. If you can't deal with such a predictable attack pattern, then it shows a lack of skill on your part, not on the opponent's. Take it as a lesson of sorts as a way to experiment in finding a counter for it. But if you refuse to find a counter for it and don't change your tactics (all the while complaining about said spam), then you're likely more suited towards the casual matches, since those who ONLY kows how to spam are the lowest tier of skilled players. If you can't deal with them, then how much more against better ones? As for reason why people play rank matches, I can't speak for everyone, but I certainly don't play it for bragging rights about how high my points are. I use it mainly to avoid the 'scrubs' and fight against more skillful players so that I learn how to deal with a variety of tough situations. Unlike RPGs, you only really improve your skill by fighting hard battles, and you never increase your skill by defeating countless easy opponents. Ranked matches are simply just a way to find opponents of equal skill or preferably greater. Nothing more, nothing less. |
