Is Filia a good Solo?

Nah not really.

Please run your Valentine into my Parasoul/Filia assist while trying to get at me.

Nobody is that good solo; you are mostly banking that the damage you do will overcome whatever synergy you are presented with.

=( she’s better than filia at solo.

ms. fortune might be a pretty good solo, since she has her own assists.

ALL SOLO TEAMS ARE CRAP TERRIBLE. Please stop being lazy and learn other characters, so you can DHC.

You will be infinitely locked down.

It’s a fighting game. People are always hitting buttons when they shouldn’t be.
And normally if you do heavy hairball about mid way through a jump it’s either safe or has incredibly few recovery frames. Because nobody punishes that either.

Because DHC is so important that it absolutely guarantees that you will win every game ever. The games been out a week numbnuts don’t be so quick to write something off. It’s also not being lazy, I just WANT to play one character. And as long as I have the option to, I will.

Yo, no one is forcing you to play more than 1 character. You can do it and I’m sure you’ll do just fine, no one is going to give you shit for it. But stop bitching just because the facts are pointing otherwise.

Tiger Knee MK Hairball seems pretty safe, if you want to do a Hairball on the ground.

But yeah… I too thought c.MK was safe and super good, then I started fighting a guy who quickly learned it wasn’t. I loved that c.MK, but now I eat full combo every time I foolishly throw it out. You can sorta kinda cancel to LP spike, but if they throw you they’ll be invincible. :crybaby:

VERY few things she has are save even her jabs feel unsafe. Most solo Fillia’s just will IAD like crazy and do Air. MP or HP.

Who are you talking to? Try quoting bro :tup:

It was directly to you, since you’re the only one butthurt that Filia isn’t looking so hot solo.

Ummmmmm…no? I’m just saying that dude comes in here and says stuff with nothing behind it. I don’t give a fuck if he says Filia is bad solo or not. I would just prefer that he say why instead of just saying shes bad. You need to chill. I sense a lot of rage coming from you for no reason. But seriously don’t be so quick to write off solo as an option. The game is fresh right now. Full potential of anything has yet to be seen.

I’m getting rage because you are disagreeing with the facts. Cr mk is unhella unsafe, it doesn’t matter if you don’t get punished for it. This by itself is a huge reason why filia needs an assist to function to her full potential.

I personally think solo is going to be inferior. Team synergy = greater than the sum of its parts. Why excel in only a couple areas when you can excel in many?

Is Ringlet Spike safe?

No.

moving on.

At any point did I say I disagreed with it being unsafe? No. I only said that people weren’t punishing from my personal experience. It’s -10 which means it can be punished, I understand that. But don’t put words in my mouth. Because the only thing I actually disagreed with is how you said she has no safe hitconfirms when all her lights are + on block. All you have to do is do a light more than once and you should be able to hit confirm it, thats what I do. Seriously don’t get worked up over something you THINK I said. Keep this thread calm. It would suck if it got closed because of people arguing over stupid shit.

C’mon, son. That’s like day 1 bullshit.
If you’re just there on top of your opponent and your only option to open them up is cr.LP, I’d say you’re in a bad position if they block.
Sure, you’re plus on frames, but what are your options?

  1. Another LP? okay, they throw out an invincible move/assist/super
  2. Throw out a super? Fillia’s supers are unsafe
  3. Jump? You’re relieving the pressure that’s an integral part of Fillia’s game
  4. Block? Why would you put yourself in a position where you’re susceptible to mix-ups/throws?

Not to mention your opponent will be able to alpha counter and DHC. All in all, Fillia’s pokes are awful.

I didn’t say it was my only option. I said when you use it you should be able to confirm off of it. I said that with invincible moves not part of the equation. More of like a “what if” kinda thing I guess. I’ve won around 80% of my games using solo Filia, because that’s all I play. So until SkullGirls proves me wrong, lights are good hitconfirms, airborne heavy hairball is safe and Filia is a good solo. And I mean the game to prove me wrong through actual fights. Not everyone playing theory fighter with frame data, because what I do still works.

Though jack i appreciate you actually bringing evidence to your opinion, instead of just saying shes bad with no support behind it.

You’re basing your argument on as if your button had already connected. More than likely, your poke is gonna get blocked. Of course “lights are good hitconfirms” if it connects, you go into a combo; this game’s basic mechanic are chains.

What I’m saying is that, on her own, Filia doesn’t have the sufficient tools to open up her opponent.

Yea I heard that. I only wish the devs gave her a grounded overhead :frowning: its so easy to miss with an instant airdash into a jumping attack at almost ground level. It’s unfortunately true that she doesn’t have any good “get hit by this so I can combo the shit out of you” moves

I still can’t tell. I do it to keep my strings safe, and I don’t get punished. But I still think I SHOULD be getting punished, heh.
