did they nerf gotenksā€™s spin kick special, 214x, cuz everyone can punish it with superdash now.
i could swear that wasnt the case prior seasons.

I mean, it was never safe to end with on block.

If anything they buffed it from what I saw, considering you can cancel it into his other specials now. Just end the string with EX machine gun fist if you wanna be safe.

after experimenting with gotenks and janemba to replace fat toss assist. i wasnt happy with either characterā€™s A assists.

can i be thrown or command grabbed while im in the act of reflecting?
yes/no?
just checking

Absolutelyā€¦

What Martian said. It easily one the things that people do to call out reflects especially on wake up. Or they can just sit there and watch you do swat at mosquitos before punishing the recovery.

The only time you canā€™t be command grabbed or dragon rushed for reflecting is if you are currently in the act of reflecting. Dragon rushā€™s active frames can last until the end if done properly but usually command grabs have to be timed during recovery.

uh. thats what i mean tho. act of reflecting. because i was thinking of dealing with dudes who rock ssj vegeta A assist ki blast.
like.
i was playing against this 16 user rocking veg A assist and all he would do is wait till after his turn was over to whip out that assist.
and its alot to deal with random 16 command grabs, far reaching normals, 6M overhead. and tick throws.
its 3 yearā€™s later, that assist still op.
cant teleport.
cant cross up.
diagonal assists like veg ki blast, gt goku and cell kamehameha still op.
control of space is op.
so i was wondering last night.
while gettin spanked by this 16 w veg A assist player, being put into eternal blockstring/fuck you for hitting buttons thinkin it was your turn, if i can reflect the veg assist, then 16 cant grab me or throw me?
???
unsure.
if i can reflect vegetaā€™s ki blast assist, 16 shouldnt be allowed to punish my properly timed reflect with grab or throw.
i dont know

If you have already started reflecting Vegetaā€™s assist then you canā€™t be grabbed. You can set it up in training just to set your mind at ease.

Yeah, you canā€™t get grabbed DURING a reflected attack.

Imagine if people could just toss out assists, bait you to reflect it, and then DR you mid reflect. :joy:

ok thanks. you know, i love love my new team, bluku c/tien b/majin buu b but i find myself losing more often than i should mostly due to the team not only not building meter but quite the opposite. loses it and i find myself starving for meter at the end of matches. but i cant help be flashy with the flashiest team synergy dare i say, in the entire game.

btw martian, have you seen justrelaxkidā€™s beerus play lately. heā€™s doing some interesting things regarding ground bounces.
also, ive been playin around with a beerus c/17 a/piccolo a team.
i put piccolo A on the team because of his new 2 fireball assist, and my strat is to fill the screen with beerus and piccolo fireballs and then turtle till my opponent will 80% chance try to superdash through it. thats when i down heavy into combo.
im still working on it. its a interesting team. you can have as many as 8 fireballs on the screen. 17 barrier covers me as i do beerus 236S move.

I havenā€™t, I should look up his stuff again cause heā€™s probably my favorite Beerus player. Heā€™s hella good. Is he still doing 18/Beerus/Tien?

Also, we should play sometime. Iā€™d like to see your team in action.

Alukards beerus is legit and fun to watch. Got some interesting combos

again, im always starvin for meter which this team eats up.
if i had meter i coulda finished the combo with super
ezgif 1a
if i had meter i woulda done super after that divekick that connected.

an interesting thing about fat toss is, it doesnt let me do super.
like. i tried doing this same thing but instead of throw, i try lvl 1 super. wouldnt work.
only throw or superdash or just attacking works but for some reason the game wont let me do lvl 1 super fat toss lvl 1 again no matter what. hmmm.
also.
this is just plain fun.

ive been doin this lately but instead of buu assist im using blu gokuā€™s A assist divekick.
so. volleyball fist 2nd stage into divekick assist into tien down heavy launcher into air combo.
i have more gifs coming up. mostly buu as point using tien and goku assist shenanigans.

i dont think he is anymore.
beerus yes but 18 i think he dropped her.
and im on steam. dont expect much from me. ive spent 500+ hours on this game, and i still suck ass. iā€™m very inconsistent. iā€™ll beat a expert pink square player, then lose to a green square beginner. shrug.

Oh, darn. Iā€™m on PS4.

If I want to see 17 game play, who should I look up in YT?

I donā€™t know anyone off the top of my head who is known for their 17 at the moment and with c the c virus bodying tourneys at the moment there hasnā€™t been a chance for one to emerge with the season 3 changes. That being said I do see some play of him randomly in highlights for online play.

This footage was before season 3 hit so dunno if this person is still playing 17 now or not.

Sadly itā€™s the same and only video I found, I donā€™t understand. As far as I know heā€™s a fan favorite, and granted I only have passing knowledge about the game, but he doesnā€™t seem that bad, unless he has abysmal frame data.
