    Stop Calling Beat Extend: The Thread Edition

    -Got hit by almost all the dp assists and a bunch of reversal SSJ. You started baiting the reversal supers, but not so much baiting the beat extend assist and counter calling with double. -Not enough throwing/overheads in general. Dhoppler was just down backing everything you threw at him. Use...

    ...I've shown up to this party late

    Didn't watch all of it, but wanted to highlight certain things. 11:43 - Full Screen Scalpels vs Parasoul. It worked out in this case, but really not a good decision as a Val player. Parasoul recovers way too fast to actually get hit by that. Your opponent just stopped holding back for some...

    Stop Calling Beat Extend: The Thread Edition

    More Val stuff: -Do not jump forward with j.hk. The start up is far too long to try to be aggressive with. Neutral Jump or up back. -Don't rely on air dash j.mp as your only method to get in and beat extend assist as your fall back plan. Chuck some crosses and/or call the booty assist and dash...

    Stop Calling Beat Extend: The Thread Edition

    Noticed that you drop your Val double snap. An easy one is: otg s.lk, c.hp J.hk (1 hit) xx h bypass, m bypass.

    oh hey it's that old Val + Bella vid I made a while ago. Some of the air bypass + LnL assist side switch resets don't work as well since air bypass was changed. It used to work like ground bypass where they would fly away from you after hitting, but it was buffed so you can preform air actions...

    LK is unnecessary. Has potential to whiff and the amount of damage gained with it at max scaling is so minimal that it wouldn't really matter. I end my combos with s.hp since I usually use up my otg. The only times I end my combos in hk are for the sliding knockdowns.

    There were lag some spikes in some areas, so don't worry too much. I even dropped my air bypass > ad j.mp too much for my own comfort. Bella: - Approaching as bella. Full screen tumble run is bad. The safest option to beat out all of bella's actions out of tumble run is up-back. Brave...

    you can also hold down back to charge. or neutral jump and hold back and you should have it charged by the time you land. And make sure you're hitting kick after hitting forward.

    ...I've shown up to this party late

    The vid is "fukua wasn't even in the game yet" old, but the bella resets shown are still applicable. Notice how you said these resets were used on you. Honestly Bella's entire reset game is easy and has barely ever changed since there's the ever looming threat of a command grab. So she...

    Another thing. I'm going to list off descriptions/uses of Val's notable normals. J.HK - It's like a stop huge stop sign that denies anyone trying to rush at you. Don't press this jumping forward or when they're really close due to the long startup. Use only when jumping straight up or...

    Generally, I cancel air bypass into scalpels around the time when I think it would hit (even if I know it will whiff). When it does air bypass does hit, I cancel into scalpels anyways since I don't know it will hit and it's better to be on the safe side. I noticed that you're apprehensive when...

    Prolly cuz Pharah/Mercy combo is so powerful when you have no one to shoot them out of the air. You just see a rocket woman and an angel dancing in the sky with a tether to tie them together i guess? idk. I don't understand the internet. They call Hanzo "Hand soap" just cuz his name can be...

    ...I've shown up to this party late

    Now that I actually read what Gllt and Lex said, they're right. Also, sliding hard knockdown them into the corner with s.hk(x3), cancel into vial load (optional), dash up, lvl2 their wake up into tea bag(also optional) into combo is the most hilarious and demoralizing thing you could possibly do...

    ...I've shown up to this party late

    For rejump combos, I just hold up while Val is falling and hit j.lp as soon as she leaves the ground. I don't feel as though it's possible to hit j.lk too early for it to whiff. You can definitely hit the button too late however. Also Val's lvl2 counter is pretty fun to use if you can get a...

    I would have never played Junkrat if i hadn't gotten the jester skin out of a loot box. Now I know how fun he really is. So much damage without the need to be precise or on the front lines.

    To be fair, that's not exactly a convincing argument when you're playing a different character against beowulf, and you aren't playing beo against Hillbilly, so you don't exactly see the problems he's dealing with. You also might not be playing against good beowulf players.

    That'd be really weird... Having ground kunais changes everything but.... Fuckin wait.... you have to restock the kunais ONE AT A TIME?! WTF. edit: oh wait.. you have to charge it to load more than one. Ew.
