@itzpookiie just unignored you. You always has been an asshole to me, or so I thought, but you’re right. I have no fucking idea what I’m talking about. I guess I try too hard to feel included because outside of you guys I have no one to talk to outside of work.

itzpookiie:

how do you beat exDR as vega?

You counter pick at the Character Select screen.

itzpookiie:

how do you beat exDR as vega?

Dude, we’re not even sure if you can beat EXDR with anyone, let alone with Vega.

Shouldn’t the AA Aurora Slicer or something clip it due to the step back Vega does when slicing?

KingCrimson how’s the connection on your end? Bit choppy here.

I guess I’m not too rusty… I can get her to do what I want most of the time

Connection is surprising good on my end

I really need an option to disable tapping lightning legs. This feels like the biggest nerf Chun Li got in season 2. Tap your only three frame button and get lightning legs instead, then proceed to lose half of your life from a v trigger training mode combo. Fucking brilliant!

sounds like you need to stop button mashing?

I try to keep my inputs as clean as possible. The only time I mash are during scrambles, which I have already been conscientiously trying to stop doing.

KingCrimson · 2018-01-01T00:13:11.000Z

Picking Chun-Li was a bad idea lol

LordWilliam1234:

I keep seeing people say that Ed isn’t my character

Who the fuck is my character then

'Cause I don’t feel like anyone else fits me right now

Better question; what kind of player do you see me as

Froztey:

What I would say though is don’t do a whole exclusion kinda thing and let everyone here give you some feedback, watch your games, be open about faults and be proactive about training them out of your playstyle and fixing up execution faults/muscle memory faults.

Learn through mistakes, be happy about em cause chances are every mistake can either reinforce issues that you have or teach you something new. And it’s really handy to have external parties see those mistakes because they might catch something you couldn’t in the decision making process.

Other people are an incredibly valuable resource when reflecting on your own improvement, I prefer people to tell me I’m wrong rather than I’m right, or build upon things I’ll mention rather than just agree.

Problem is people here haven’t been doing that. They just say shit like “you’re good” when it just isn’t true. You’re the only one who’s pointed that kind of thing out.

I don’t care if people watch my replays after the fact, I just don’t want to be on stream when I’m playing someone online.

Darklightjg1:

snip

…how did you know that was me in GG pools. No one there spoke to me.

But regardless, to clarify, I just don’t like being on random streams when I’m playing online. Online gets me aggravated no matter what 'cause it’s just me sitting in front of a screen with no real interactions with the other players. I don’t like speaking or interacting much, but just having other real people there either behind me watching or just having a real player next to me is calming. 'Cause I know no matter what we can always just laugh about it, shake hands, and know we had a good time no matter how frustrating it may have been in the moment.

Playing online removes any kind of interaction like that and just makes everything feel…I dunno. I just get irritated extremely quickly. Streams in this situations just amplify that 'cause now I’ve got people watching me that I can’t interact with at all in the moment, not just the player I’m fighting. Be that just looking behind me, smiling, shaking my head, whatever. All of that is gone. Just people watching me be bad at the game.

Voice chat doesn’t help me either. I barely speak at all, I mostly convey things with body language/facial expressions, especially when playing sets. You can’t really replicate that stuff online in the same way.

Potentially being on stream in a tourney bothers me less 'cause while there’s far more random people watching, there’s still all those real people around me. Makes it matter less.

I dunno, that all probably sounds silly but that’s just how I react to these situations. I don’t think that’s something I can just “fix.”

Also I’m probably gonna start wearing something like that hood anyway 'cause I look ugly as sin and I don’t need people seeing that on a stream but that’s another matter entirely

I think you pick a character based on one of 3 things.

Pick a character who expresses the things that most exemplify the things you find skillful or fun in the game.
Pick a character who you vibe with aesthetically or from a lore perspective.
Pick a top tier.

So as long as Ed fills one of those 3 categories for you then play him.

I like your zeku more than your ed
your ed beats me more than your zeku now but thats only because you played ed more

Evil_Canadian · 2018-01-01T00:20:57.000Z

itzpookiie:

how do you beat exDR as vega?

non EX you can actually use LK roll as anti air if your timing is perfect. LK roll actually can be used as anti air against many moves that are not set at steep angles.

You used to be able to vskill attack it but well, season 2 happened.

ex version you eat shit and you like it.

DevilJin_01 · 2018-01-01T00:23:50.000Z

You can’t do anything about EX DR until AE where you get a counter when you get V Trigger. Then you can do something about it (after you get beat up enough)

Unless because it’s Vega and Vega doesn’t ever get anything good, it ends up whiffing or not working correctly and then you’re still screwed.

I always find this kind of stuff interesting. Top players dont know stuff. I refuse to believe forums as a whole are more knowledgeable. Only conclusion is nobody knows anything and our opinions all suck.

Maybe Capcom is right in just doing whatever. Fling shit at the wall. See what sticks.

the fact that people think slide into v-trigger activation for like 40 chip is good when other characters get to be + frames in this situation, still have their v-trigger to use after, and if the button hits their v-trigger turns into a big ass combo.

Also vega needs to use ex command grab to loop it.
