Trolling, really? Just because I gave HONEST views and OPINIONS on how I feel about the Peacock/Double matchup? I’m sorry but who are you now? Unless you actually have something useful to offer to this thread rather than have a verbal spar with me just because you have nothing going on in your life, then please don’t have nothing to say to me.
Some random on SRK like everyone else. Good job though man, you are doing really well. I like your style of subtle trolling much more than all these obvious “LOL NEWFAGS I TROLLED YOU LMAO”
I’m a bad player myself so I can understand what you’re saying to an extent, but you shouldn’t theory craft too much man. Unless you’re playing the arcade mode or something your opponent is flesh and blood, just like you. He will make mistakes, more so under pressure. So the first thing you should learn is how to fuck with your opponent’s heads and make them angry and mistake-prone (as they clearly have done a bit to you already) instead of making a giant list about which perfect move I should do under what circumstance. The thing is, you don’t have to do flashy mixups and combos to put someone in a state of fear and rage. Sometimes, even sitting there blocking everything and wailing on their assists when they call them in will make your opponents frustrated. Unfortunately you can really only learn that during a real fight, so don’t shy away from fights. Use it as a learning experience then you’ll feel better.
BTW, the lack of diplomacy aside, pobega’s advice is honestly not bad. Play to Win is a great read.
I’m not trying to be an asshole, but I think people take the word scrub as an insult when it really isn’t. I’m just trying to help him out.
Tough love is how I learned that I am not the greatest theorycrafter around; “if you can’t beat 'em, join 'em” is pretty much the greatest advice to give someone in the FGC.
Uh huh, well at least your honest enough to admit what you are I’ll give you that but still I’m actually surprised at your sentence, it just reeks of creativity. Such stylish flair that I find it incredibly hard to believe that you came up with this. You had your girlfriend post this message up for you didn’t you? Awww, isn’t that precious? The little troll finally has a chance to be let out of his girlfriend’s basement. I’m actually surprised that she even let you go online much less out of the basement, all by yourself? Wow. You should feel proud of yourself, it means that she doesn’t have to hold your hand to much anymore, congratulations. Key word being much, I hope she’s not looking over your shoulder reading this message because we both know she can be a real stickler to jabs and insults. Wouldn’t want her to take out the whip and go to town on you before she locks you back up in her basement because you can’t even come up with someone sensible to say on the internet much less real life. It is a bit embarrassing when a grown ass man such as yourself has his girlfriend telling him what to do and wear the pants in the relationship. Do you even know what a fag is? Or what the word troll even means? I can see that you can spell it or so it seems, but I don’t even think you even know the meaning of the word. Much less the context it should or should not be used so everything that you have said is irrelevant.
I didn’t theory craft anything what I have listed, save for the Parasoul thing with the superjump. Everything I said about Fillia, Valentine and Fortune is true thus far because I main the team. Though to be honest I hate Fillia with a passion, though it could be because she reminds me a big of Mags and I always avoided playing him when I found the chance as I felt that he was OP, even for a character with low health. But this isn’t Marvel we’re talking, thankfully, this is Skullgirls; a whole new ballgame and Fillia has proven effective called to duty. Valentine/Fillia so far out of everyone in the cast has been pretty effect by ways of getting on on a runaway Peacock, same with Valentine especially with a bit of timing and dodging Double on my part which has not been easy and timing my double jumps. Had a friend come over and we managed to catch a few games, the results were meager but satisfying all the same. Dodging planes if you go to high, bullets and car bombs if you go to low or are on the ground is a pain and the only way I was even remotely able to get in was Valentine’s dash slash attack. Kept the pressure on him with constant overheads, Green poison shots (which strangely enough actually manage to hit, which surprised even me as I figured that it was something that was way to obvious and would be easily blocked) and strange timing I have to get myself use to when she uses Argus Agony when she feels like panicking. Sure I lost a few times because of the frustration, but managed to swallow it down and play on despite my better judgment. I kept it simple on my end, no over complicated combos or used my meter wisely and managed to take em down and got 3 out of 8 sets, not good but not bad either. I’ll take what I can get.
Honestly I’m not trying to be a dick about things, and if I am then I’m man enough to apologize for it but at the same time I don’t like it when people think its cool to be called a scrub just because you have a different opinion about something than everyone else. Just because everybody wants to run smack dab into a brick wall, and I choose not to doesn’t mean I should be criticized for it. If anything I’ll either retaliate or simply ignore it for something different to focus on because everyone has their own opinions. Sure I stick by everything I said thus far and will get better over time, but I’m going to do it in my time in my way. Not because somebody feels that they should judge me just because mentally I already made up in my mind that I’m just not going to deal with the bullshit right then and now. If you advice, fine, sure I’ll gladly take it and give my thanks but don’t try to preach to me while coming off as an arrogant pile of horse dung while trying to shove down my throat that oh your a scrub or whatever else everyone think should or would be an an insult. An no, I’d rather not join the Peacock/Double duo brigade, to hell with that club and its membership. I’d rather work smart for what I want with a team and characters I like rather than work hard because I have to play a character I absolutely despise and have no interest in playing. I’d be able to get better results that way, plus I see no enjoyment playing that team. Absolutely none. Double sure I know how to play as she’s one of my back-up characters, but Peacock and her zoning. No, just no. I’d rather lose to it than give my opp or everyone else the satisfaction of forcing me to play that team just because right now they feel that its “supposedly” good. Hell I’d rather play Parasoul than play Peacock, and I don’t even like playing the former. Again this is my opinion, no need to bite my head off for it.
That’s respectable, though you should consider at least playing them in unranked. Learning how they work and the synergy they have is a great way to exploit flaws in the strategy. It also allows you to see how other players deal with it.
I’m not saying ride Peacock/Double to the finish line, I’m saying take them for a test drive.
This thread went from partially constructive to flat out stupid.
I love it.
I’m thinking about riding the Peacock/Cerebella right now because of that cerecopter assist and Lenny to showstopper set up
On a serious note to the op I’ll give you some help since you are playing with my 2nd favorite character. It will be very hard to get on Peacock with any character, but the key is learning how that player uses Peacock meaning the order in which he uses the projectiles and assists if any. Motorcycle does help and also if you can predict the peacock well enough you can catch when they’re doing a move like one of the george moves and hit her with the snipe super to give you some time to move in closer.
Or you could just walk and jump in while taking chip, but the peacock player would most likely have something ready for ya when you’re getting too close, but there’s reading the peacock comes into play that I mentioned earlier.
Don’t forget you can do something as simple as walk/jump forward block, repeat until you’re in, along with all of your other options. The chip you take will be well worth it as long as you can capitalize once you do find your opening inside. Last thing you wanna do is start trying to bulldog your way in. Unless of course again, you can make it worth whatever damage you take.
I hate the guessing game between trying to get in and peacock teleporting behind you. she’s at an advantage there I find. especially you have to predict her teleport to punish, and if you guess wrong you’re getting pushed back/taking chip / she runs away while you make your jump.
I can punish if she ends up being close, but sometimes she’s JUST far enough so my launcher doesn’t hit. I gotta learn the spacing better so I know when to just go for a ground chain rather than a launcher…
DHC into Peacock.
You are legitimately exactly what is wrong with today’s gamers and society in general.
again great troll, will read again, bravo
As a member of the more recent generation of fg players I am deeply offended by this
Apart from early MK escapades, I’m in the same boat as you. Just because you are new(er) doesn’t mean you have to be like Lord Scrubbington over here.
Just thought I’d point out him calling someone an ‘online warrior’ after ‘If you see the team picked out before you pick your team, kindly exit out of the game or boot the person.’

wait isnt this a comepetitive gaming website? I thought the point of SRk was to bring about people trying to level up their game…
this guy should actually just get banned for even typing that crap
on topic the only advice I can give is patient play…I’m the point now where I just wait for the peacock to make a mistake and try my best to capitalize I play pea so I know pretty much exactly what she is capable zoning wise and if the pea player guess correctly every time it seems unbeatable. but I have only lost to a few peacocks online so far they all get careless or predictable…for now a few months from now new tech will need to be deveolped or pea will domninate alot of matchups
He’s not trolling just dumb/whiny/pussy etc.
Just because some scrub comes on here and says something ignorant doesn’t mean they’re a troll. You probably just went on reddit and looked at those stupid fucking troll face comics and were dying to call someone a troll when you don’t even know what it means. Shut the fuck up you ignorant jackass.
