if the average IQ is 100, then that means that half the people on the planet have less than 100 IQ.
there are a lot of stupid people in this world.
Umm… no? What kind of math is that? :shake:
Uh… he’s one of the people with below 100 IQ? What did you expect.
i am only 12 and how does bell curve work?
math are bad 
Most people just don’t understand the difference between skilled play and smart play. Dieminion’s zoning works because he is a damn smart player; he’s so smart that he can drop combos all day erry day but get away with it because he knows exactly what to do to avoid being punished for his skill-based mistakes.
The more you slow down a game the more it looks and acts like a chess match. Funny thing about chess is that it’s only fun to watch if you understand what’s going on.
I would love to appear to be a turtle but to switch off and on at will to rushdown to control the match.
You should try playing Rachel in BlazBlue. Zoning the fuck out of you by placing lightning rods and daring you to press a button but then rushing like crazy with Silpheed shenanigans is her whole game plan.
BB Hood can kinda do this too with her fast as all hell dashes and the fast recovery on Smiling Missiles.
I’ll keep that in mind if I ever get the game or find anyone to play it with. 
Or is it Melty Blood, Arcana Heart, or the Guilty Gear series that carries that stereotype?
Did someone try a George Carlin joke in here?
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.
I agree. Both are valid fighting styles and both need to be utilized.
Juri SF4 as well.
Generally looking for JoaT characters should fit your bill.
playing keepaway with sent/commando is really fun, as is laying down an obstacle course for the enemy with cable
because no one likes playing against a keep away
Y’all can say scrub this, scrub that all y’all want… But no one wants to get lamed out. Anyone is going to be pissed off. Vanilla Phoenix throwing salty balls in the air all day is enough to make you wanna slam the stick. Lame out causing hate and frustration is a part of fighting games. That’s what that strategy is meant to do.
Honestly, I disagree completely. I main Zangief in SF4 and in HDR, I deal with the majority of the people I play trying to lame me out. Patience and the ability to keep composure are both marks of a strong player. If you can’t keep a clear head in a game how do you expect to even function. Understand the nature of some matchups is going to be keepaway for one of the two characters and know you are going to have to play against that, there is no need to make a fool out of yourself over a game.
Everything you say is true, but that’s just not the way things work. People get salty even if it’s just over a game. It’s easy to post on a forum saying keep a level head or whatever, but when you’re playing? Man things happen. Against keepaway you’re always going to have that psychological war between players. You start taking a lot of chip, times running out and they have the life lead. With everything on the line, even the best players get mind fucked by it. One of the reasons why zoning is and always will be an effective strategy.
All of the above fall under that stereotype, and it’s more or less true. There’s definitely less people playing bb/gg/mb/ah compared to the number of capcom players.
I can relate to your situation… If there was a choice between being anti-hype and winning, than being super hyped and increasing the chances of me losing, I would rather stick to BnB’s, pokes, and punishes.
If players intend on winning, they need to focus on fundamentals, logic, and their choices - not aesthetics.
It’s called being lame for a reason 
:wtf: Not that I need you to tell ME that.
