    Improvement Through Blunt Trauma

    I usually regret it right after I see it coming out. I also sometimes do HP when I want Air George and it comes out, and then, like a complete idiot, I autopilot the other two bullets.

    Improvement Through Blunt Trauma

    Played about 13 games with another beginner, won 10. What I noticed is that most of the time, if he managed to get in, it means I went for HP Bangx3 when I had no real reason to. Used MP SoID a bit more here, because that's what I focused on. That, and pushblocking Valentine away as much as...

    Improvement Through Blunt Trauma

    So after a short set (16 lost games), I was given advice, which consisted of two main ideas: 1. More AG/PBGC practice. Loads more. 2. I have to use SoIDs more. Especially the MP one. I forgot to use it against Painwheel because I started panicking after a couple of failed (push)blocks that...

    Improvement Through Blunt Trauma

    Back in action, after a relatively lengthy break. Decided to rock Peacock/Fukua, and I'm currently practicing the following things: - Everything in worldjem's defense guide, especially Absolute Guard and PBGC - Fukua combos. I have a 7514 damage midscreen combo without shadows (it's a modified...

    Improvement Through Blunt Trauma

    By "Start with c.LK", you mean I should replace S.LP with it, or just do it before the entire string, which would go c.LK, s.LP,...? I'll hit the training room for the string, of course I'll try it.

    How do you stop being so salty?

    If I notice that I'm getting frustrated/demoralized, I just take a break, and clear my head. I'm pretty panicky anyway, as a beginner, and I don't want to lose more focus by getting bummed about things.

    Improvement Through Blunt Trauma

    Quick update: - I've learned that I can throw the second part of Argus, by porting behind the enemy Peacock after blocking the laser. Should keep this in mind, especially when I have Goodfellas available. - I shouldn't be afraid to just reuse all my projectiles after they explode into another...

    Improvement Through Blunt Trauma

    Okay, I was told a combo I could use that allows me to get away from the opponent after executing it. The combo goes c.LK, s.MP, s.MK, j.LK, j.MP, j.HK. Reasonably easy to execute, so I think I'll stick with it for the time being, until I get more comfortable with the basics. I can also do an...

    Improvement Through Blunt Trauma

    Alright, so after a good bunch of beginner lobby games, and just as many games with Vulpes, my pushblocking has improved. I'm also a bit better with porting out to safety as Peacock, but it doesn't help when I panic and mash it, trying just to escape the corner. I need to use Bang Bang Bang...

    Improvement Through Blunt Trauma

    So I'm starting from scratch. No fighting game experience, no idea what I'm doing. Time to change that. I've also decided to list the people who have helped me improve in one way or another. Here's the current list: - IsaVulpes, for basically being a moving, BB-using training dummy, and...

    The dekillschool stream

    Is there a minimum skill requirement for this? I'd like to participate and learn something, but I'm ridiculously bad right now. Like, "Barely knows what the characters do" bad. I don't know a single combo, and I'm getting used to using assists on a pad.

    Introduce Yourself!

    Greetings, Skullpeople. I'm entirely new to fighting games, with a few weeks of experience (read: no experience) with SF4. Skullgirls has an artstyle that drew me to it, but I'm really enjoying the entry-level gameplay so far. I can't really promise I'll be posting a lot, since I'm not really...
