Learning to buffer in 3S helped out my game in all fighters.
I got beat down once 100 games straight by Nataku in 3S [98:2], and that immediately forced me to understand that there was another level to reach. So I sat down and honed my basics and became a better player.
you guys may laugh but playing DBZ budokai helped me get better at street fighter. i used to block way too much in fighting games.
Playing marvel 2. Even though I get bodied. I learned how to look for resets and when to block low and high.
Also learning footsies.

Learning what they mean by “STOP JUMPING”. I learned that if I am jumping and my only plan is “land a j.jk to do that sick combo you learned in practice mode”, then I’ve got a bad jump. I now try to only jump when I have a full gameplan.
The thing that improved my game the most was meeting up with people in my area, getting my ass handed to me in person and having to show my face the next week. That made me put in work cause I wasn’t gonna get clowned again.
