Skullgirls Gameplay Discussion Thanks For Playing

This experience and expectation help with reactions. If you looking for the opponent to go low or grab, you’ll react faster to those than you would an overhead. It’s a form of self priming.

That isn’t reaction time… Of course knowing what is coming will make it easier but you still have an ACTUAL reaction time and that is not easy to change. Of course you can improve it with exercise etc, but it is a physical trait and you can only really do so much.

My reaction time is horrendous, its like 16-17 frames in FG speak, that means ONCE I know what I am seeing, it will take me that long to get the signal to my fingers to respond. I find even 20 frame overheads practically unblockable. Especially if the animation isn’t super obvious.

I never said it was reaction time. I just said it helps with reactions. Like you said, it’s the time it takes to understand + the time it takes to react. Both can be trained, but the experience based one (understanding time) is the one that can be improved the most. Reacting earlier can be just as good as reacting faster.

289 ms?

whoa that is pretty slow and here i thought i was terrible at 240 avg…

but human benchmark type tests arent the best at determining reaction times… people react much quicker to changes in movement than changes in color… in general… take the sheep test and i bet your scores will improve to like 230 ms.

Pattern recognition > reactions

250 ms on the sheep thing. :s

How do you find out your reaction time in frames?

hahah

me and my 4 hours of sleep dipped between 283 and fastest clicks of 217… im totally off today, though i can feel it.

also reactions>pattern recognition totally bruh

:rofl:

About 280 from what I remember. It fluctuates depending on the time of day/how tired I am obviously. I’m actually worse at the sheep test haha, it makes me really jumpy the way the sheep keep moving. I also don’t trust that test, the times it gives seem very off sometimes, I have actually got 0.0000 many times with legitimate reactions which makes no sense, the sheep appear off the edge sometimes and you can stop them before they make it onto the “field”

By finding it in ms then using some very basic mathematics.

You find out your reaction time in ms
You know that FGs runs at 60 FPS, so 1 Frame ≈ 16.67ms
You do basic math.

Hey, that games kinda fun! .2036 average highscore.

Of course, but… I heard someone talk about how quickly they could do SPD’s before, so I thought there was a way to get it directly in frames.

Sheepgame is a twitchtest which are a joke. I got an average of 0.18 with hitting the last sheep at .1 second. That doesn’t have anything to do with FG reactions at all.

E: 2nd try, 5 ones at ~1.65 –

It takes a while.

The term “neutral” refers to simply any moment the fighters aren’t doing any moves and are then able to attack/block/throw. In Street Fighter games, a neutral game is that moment where both characters are staying at a certain distance moving back and forth looking for the right moment to strike. Some characters have better normal attacks and moves to help with their neutral game (fireballs and long range pokes for example). It’s actually a very interesting subject to me as a Ms. Fortune player.

very nice, i can get 167 clicks but not at all consistently… then again i havent slept much this week.
your brain is beautiful, make sure you treat it right and take it out to dinner/buy it flowers once in awhile.

So about 6pm today (Eastern) I ask my wife…

“Hey, guess what happens in about 9 hours???”

Knowing exactly what it is, she replies…

“Mike Z will run around naked in the Skullgirls forums?”

So I stare at her and say…

“Uh no, the Skullgirls patch will finally be released!”

And she replies by saying…

“Can’t it be both?”

It’s the only good thing about me, so ya, I do.

no way dude its more than a gimmick. as long as you alpha counter the right move (a medium or heavy) i dont think theres any way to escape it after the super flash. im not sure if the opp can act/input their own super during the alpha counter itself because thats the only way i can think they could escape it if they did it right.

even better doing it if you have four bars since then you can DHC into a level 3 afterwards.

Who is hype about that Best of The Best remix edition?

If the fixed ggpo lets me have decent game with everyone I’ll put in an effort this time.

Can’t wait to play the patch.
