Scrubquotes is back!

Lol. Well it is braindead. Unless you are going to tell me it takes a lot of mental effort to press 3 buttons.

There’s a difference between braindead and overpowered.

What mechanic are you talking about?

He’s referring to Vega’s V-trigger as a mechanic in this case.

What does it do that’s soooo braindead?

I have no idea, I just blow the fuck through it when it’s thrown blindly with Necalli’s charge special.

He’s upset that Vega’s v-trigger is completely safe and gets him out of the corner for free. He works hard to corner Vega only for him to pop trigger, get out without risk and render his effort moot. Sounds like a Gief player to me.

Naw Gief players bathe in the beautiful struggle, he plays Ken.

Pretty sure that category includes Maximilian, LowTierGod, and DSP. Money =/= legitimacy.

I’m talking about tournament winnings. Aka from first place finishes.

Still doesn’t matter when calling something out as scrubby.

You don’t say it.

At first I was curious as to why this guy was so obsessed with how the person getting combod feels about the situation… but now I understand that he spends his whole life getting that ass beat :smiley:

Why does it seem like there is a trend with people who like sf4 and not sfv Beong psychopaths for some reason.

You’re giving him too much credit lmao I think he meant online casuals. Not that I know who these people are anyway

“Bayonetta should be banned.”

it’s just such delicious irony that he came here thinking he was going to “embarass d3v in his own house” man what a misstep.

Funny thing is, I remember seeing Ally say a couple of things like that on Twitter.

From the DOA forums.

Daigo is such a scrub. Why’s he even going if his goal isn’t to win? I’m so glad we’re not scrubs like Daigo “The Beast and Evo Champion” Umehara

Scrub quote from yours truly:

Fuck this 8 frame infested piece of shit of a street fighter game.

As a huge scrub (or casual, or beginner, or noob, or whatever your preferred term for “guy who gets his ass beat constantly” is), I don’t get this idea that “X only beats me because he uses exploits”. If it’s that easy to win, and winning and losing matters that much to you, why not do it yourself? Because it’s “cheap”? Okay, so stop your whining. You’re intentionally handicapping yourself. You don’t have some moral high ground because you choose to “lose with honor” or whatever. You’re just a whiny little bitch. I used to say Third Strike was a shitty game because “parries are cheap”. Guess what? I said that because I couldn’t parry for shit (and still can’t, by the way). The players who parried everything I did would absolutely destroy me even without parries because they obviously could read me like a book. Nowadays I’ll stick with “I don’t really like parry mechanics because I feel they invalidate some portions of 2d fighting game design”, which may or may not be a scrub quote in and of itself, but at least I acknowledge that while I may not personally enjoy the mechanic, it takes skill to do, and I can’t call it cheap or shitty just because I can’t do it myself. If you keep consistently losing to someone, that guy is better than you. Unless he actively uses some means outside of the game to win like lag switches, but that’s another can of worms entirely.

scrub = someone who creates external rules for how the game should be played, especially if he tries to excuse his losses as “I’m playing honorably, he’s not”. A scrub is someone who externalizes his problems with the game.

Complaining about shit is not being a scrub, whether those complaints concern balance or game design.
Being a beginner is not being a scrub.
Being frustrated is not being a scrub.

Scrubbiness factors in when we look at how you deal with problems.

The frustrated guy who thinks something is completely broken and rails against it nonstop but also spends his time in the lab to find a solution if possible or lessen his disadvantage otherwise or who joins Team Broken is not a scrub.

LTG is a scrub. He is not a scrub because he complains. He’s a scrub because he externalizes his problems and blames others instead of owning up to the problems and trying to solve them.
