1st for Dizzy, Faust, and Venom

Oops. Did I just commit a murder?

...

>not playing the mirror
what are you so scared about? he'll just lame you out

There was at least 5 at one point, you missed it

Best Wife

>he'll just lame you out
You sure about that, kid?

>4 secs on the timer
yeah, im sure

The one with the life lead by the 10 count. Was me.

>tfw no locals

Got bamboozled, sorry.

It depends how regularly you play with people. I used to go to a local scene for GG all the time when I was younger. While there's a sense of camaraderie you get from playing with people in person, you can get that too from netplay when you meet the right people. That being said, having absolutely no delay is pretty nice and that's something netplay will never have. Also actual thuggery, but that depends on your location.

Midwest PC for an hour and a half or so.

How difficult is it to play as Johnny?

He isn't that hard to play. Just requires a bit of muscle memory

Dudes i bought rev2 last week, trying to pick/learn either leo, faust or slayer, but i can't seem to find people online, i only find 1 or 2 lobbies tops, is it normal, i live in south america btw

Are you on PC or PSN? Depending on your internet you might be able to get a somewhat decent connection to North American players.

TCP:80,443,3478,3479,3480,5223,8080
UDP:3478,3479,3658
forward these ports and see if more stuff opens up for yah im seeing 6 lobbies right now on pc

I still don't know why but no one ever goes to lobbies. You're better off by going to a player room of making your own.
I'm south american as well and play with other brazilians and some hermanos frequently by hosting an open room.

PC my internet is pretty bad sadly

i'm looking that out, don't really know how to forward ports on pc, but fightcade told me to do the same

i meant those player lobbies/rooms, i only get like 1 or 2 in the best cases, maybe my internet just sucks

>I still don't know why
No rematch and they're just generally slower

I am posting Robo-Ky in honour of the Robo-Ky poster who was posting in honour of the Cao Cao poster in /mbg/ that was posting in honour of the poster who was posting in honour of the original Cao Cao poster until we get a complete roster.

is this still up

I'm actually curious to the story behind this. Care to give a quick rundown?

>went to sleep early because I stayed up for 24h
>miss a 5 people EU PC lobby
NOOOOO!
Well, I guess I hadn't trained enough anyway. Maybe next time.

I can play you for a bit right now if you want

One poster in /mbg/ wanted a romance of the three kingdoms mod, and the filename was telling people to not suggest the dynasty warriors mod which is also based on rot3k and then an angery version if someone suggested it anyway. It continues to this day and someone started posting a robo-ky version in this thread and stopped soon after and someone else took up the mantle

Join up.

Interesting, thanks for sharing.

ggs, again, sorry for the short set, I'll be in this thread more now so let's play again

I want to fuck Faust and cuddle with him all night and watch as he falls asleep in my arms!

ggs and closed

Let's.

I'll be keeping the lobby up while I train. EU players still up or brave EC (4-8f), MW (6-10f iirc) or WC (8f and up I think, Worst Coast) players are welcome to join.

faust is cool

Full or closed?

Fuck Faust's wonky ass hurt box

>online connection terminated to do an online error

or something like that

Is this caused by the host leaving the lobby without announcing it? Cause I've seen this like 3 times tonight.

...

Still up. Sorry for the late reply. Heated games going on here.

where da ecpc at.

i killed it

right here

ug4y

join up

not finding it
is it full?

check your closet

GGs Palicca and thanks for hosting. Those were some intense matches. I'm glad my wild throw practice seems to have been effective.

By the way, if you want your soul back, tough shit. It's mine now. I'm not giving it back.

GGs.
I had planned to practice something else but I thing I'm going to practice getting max damage off of my AA 6P's and several other things I can use to take the smirk off your face. I will be getting my soul back.

>I will be getting my soul back.
Heh. I'll be waiting. Smirk and all.

in 6p we trust

>practice oki that is supposed to be blitz and dp safe
>similar to one other setup, relatively hard to differentiate from the unsafe one
>manage to do it in match
>opponent never dps or blitzes from wakeup
What the fuck guys.

play against 「GEAR † HEAD」 if you want constant wakeup DPs

>oki that is supposed to be blitz
I'm a scrub. What does that look like?

Making a mental note.
You mean what does the setup look like or what the word oki means?

>play in public player lobbies after a month of mostly playing with ECPC and a few steam friends
>win majority of matches, rather than getting my shit kicked in like I used to
maybe I got lucky with opponents but maybe I've actually gotten better

What the set up looks like.

You want me to give away trade secrets? Sure, why not.
You get a knockdown with Venom and instead of doing the standard K-ball -> dashjump j.K you do K-ball -> dash superjump j.K to get high enough so no dp's can reach you and making a possible blitz track to the wrong side.

Add to your mental note you need to know how to properly punish Bandit Bringer/Riot Stamp/DI or you gonna get UNGA'd to death

yo yo niggas lets play

blitz is two sided I thought.

blitz auto tracks

It be.

Wait, how do you follow up that setup if the k ball actually hits them if you superjump?

You are both correct. I labbed some more and you can blitz through the setup, BUT the timing is such that you need to hold the blitz and Venom has to hit the held blitz that autotracks in order for him to be stunned. I believe it's possible to react to the held blitz by either grabbing the guy or going low. I feel the most reward the guy blitzing can get is a knockdown and when you keep in mind it's not as easy to get as a blitz from the normal setup, I think this is something worth learning.
Mad Struggle works. This is a new thing for me so I need to explore this more before I can say anything more. I still fail the dash superjump sometimes due to the input I use to make sure the j.K hits the ball so it'll take a while.

c.S works too.

This is what it looks like.

black beats matter

EVERY beat matters

...

i want to kill dizzy!

It's okay! I'll attempt to beat you up in-game for saying that!

If they constantly respect it, maybe throw in the low air dash/empty low mixup to get them to try.

make lobby and pick dizzy

Naturally. I was just kind of frustrated when I managed to do something I've practiced and it could have worked better.

Give me like a half hour to finish up something in a game and I will

Alright, come kick my noob ass
stjr

I heard Jam in the new GG game alluded to in recent news will have a normal speaking Jam in a business suit.

ggs lobby I got stomped tonight, karma for wanting to take a break from math I guess

Room closed, gg's everyone

GGs all. Paragon you were doing well with Venom but you need to play the Pot matchup lamer. I see a lot of Venom's use air ball summon at different timing to avoid slidehead and leave a ball to teleport to get out of trouble. And don't just gatling into sweep into carcass raid or QV for pressure. You would force me to block a ball after a knockdown but without using TK mad struggle or a throw attempt I had no reason to do anything but block low and wait for my turn.

And Wolfy. You honestly improve a lot each time I see you play. Last time I saw you play I was thinking how you don't use bubble for oki and sure enough the moment you got a knockdown in the corner you bust it out. I think some late IAD/empty low pressure would help some as well since you would force me to respect the oki game in the corner but I got to FD out a lot and didn't need to block much high except for overheads. You keep improving a lot though and with a character that I honestly don't feel is that easy or that strong.

For the FD, I'm about to air dash cancel with f.s but I haven't gotten into the habit of doing yet, but it's something I'm definitely trying to work on. I'll keep the other things you said in mind, thanks for the advice!
Hearing that I'm improving always makes me feel better about myself, and strive to be more

Thanks for the advice, I just started to auto pilot pressure and revert to using 5d8 as a mixup even though the other day I was practicing tick throws. also learning timing for tk ms sucks but I'll get there eventually [/spoilet] GGs mang

>Oh there's a /ggg/
>see if it's any better than shitposting /fgg/
>people actually play games

I need to lurk more and get my scrubby ass beaten.

How do you break tunnel vision and remember all the shit you wanted to try before the match?

Practice it on active bots, repeat in your head multiple times as a reminder of the thing you want to try during the match

What's your region boyo

Will do.

Why do people like to draw Faust fan art like this?

Because Faust is adorable.
