    Huh? How do I ADC the j.hp if I already used my airdash for the IAD?

    Day 2 of Eliza has me really worried if I'm going to be capable of playing this character. I can't do the OTGs that I absolutely have to be able to do in order to play the character at all, and pretty much every time I take her out of training room, she just gets perfected with me having...

    Skullgirls Encore Edition Tiers and Matchups Discussion Thread: The Revengeance

    Psyclocke and Captain Commando -- characters that are literally dead weight aside from their invincible assists -- were on how many teams in MvC2 for how many years? Invincible assists are more than just first order optimal strategies in a tag game. In a game like Skullgirls where the...

    Eliza General Discussion

    I could be completely wrong about this (I've only used her in training mode, and am only on day 2 with her), but lk spiral is -2 on block, so is totally safe, and c.mk is +0 on block and is very confirmable since it multi-hits.

    Note to self -- timing on Eliza lk spiral -> s.lk link is *immediately* after the opponent reaches apogee on the "mini-launch" from the spiral.

    In the Eliza combo How the hell are you making the dash, c.hk xx H Shoryu work? When I try this, either the Shoryu comes out the wrong way, or the training dummy goes right through it.

    Back home from DFW/Arlington locals. 1. Holy fuck, I need a new monitor. My desktop PC was the Skullgirls setup, but I was playing on an ASUS monitor the tournament hosts provided, and god damn did the game feel about a million times more responsive. 2. We didn't have enough for a...

    God dammit. 30 minute session in total left me thoroughly fucking pissed. Someone with 100 hours in game can perfect me literally at will by simply picking fucking Peacock. I'm seriously considering telling @Krye that I'm not going to the tournament on Sat, fuck this game...

    Honestly, I think that it's better for a beginner to go with some really easy 5K full combo. Especially for Parasoul, since such a thing ends with a crumple burst bait. Forced oki is better than a reset if you've only got one reset point.

    Oh, I can say for certain that the game definitely isn't giving more than it's frustrating, but I really don't have a lot of choice right now but to play enough that I at least keep my muscle memory intact; regional tournament coming up here on Oct 4th, and I promised people I'd go.

    Well, at least a three-day break is forced, since the stick I just ordered is projected to come in on Thursday. But given that I'm pretty much just coming back from a three week break in the first place... yeah.

    After tonight's session, my stick is now in pieces after having been thrown across the room then spiked into the floor in utter rage. So fucking frustrated with this shit. I've been wasting my time for over 600 fucking hours, and I've seen no improvements at all for over 400 of that.

    Val, at the very least. My gut tells me she should also have advantage against Fortune, Fillia, and Band, but I don't play those matchups.

    I don't know how PW is relevant, but she's somewhere in the middle. Not really an option for me, though; I don't have the execution skills to play her.

    Outlaw Spike winning with Val has nothing to do with Val being good; if he switched to Bella, it would take him about 10 minutes of practice (probably less) to hit a point where I'd never be able to take a game from him again.

    These are English words, but I have no idea what any of this means.

    Dropping Val for good; finally done trying to win games with that shitty fucking character. Dunno who I'm going to pick up to replace her. I'm either waiting for Eliza, or picking up Band for the middle position; not certain which is a better idea. Parasoul is definitely better on point as is...

    Input Errors moving forward and backwards

    Question for @Mike_Z : In your UFGTX panel, you mentioned that the input code for this game works by building a "virtual joystick" every frame, and applying that to the character, rather than applying inputs directly. Windows USB polling rate is by default 125Hz (well, sort of. It averages...
