    Cerebella General

    The "right read" against MGR is to hit it with an IAD-like attack, or jump and let an assist punish it. Also, nobody is cancelling whiffed MGR into Dynamo, they normally just let it recover. Cancelling into Dynamo in a game where there is no negative to up-back besides getting hit low while...

    Painwheel general discussion AKA GET OUT OF MY THREAD

    Well, if it's converting after landing from Flight, then I understand. I thought you meant from a defensive position, which is where OTG into LK Buer would work. Also, I've seen players convert off of Updo and Pillar during Flight with j.hk (after s.hk, Flight + AA Assist cross-ups) so there may...

    Painwheel general discussion AKA GET OUT OF MY THREAD

    She still does like 8.5k in the corner for one meter with the Buer nerf, over 9k with an assist, so I don't really think that's an issue. Also, how difficult is it to just convert with LK Buer off of Updo, Pillar and Butt?

    Painwheel general discussion AKA GET OUT OF MY THREAD

    Easiest way to find out if he's mashing is a burst bait set-up. Worst case scenario is you get knocked back, but you get information on your opponent and keep the damage dealt plus meter gained from the combo before the burst. Best case is more damage.

    Dealing with Parasoul's j.HP, because it needs it's own entire thread!

    Just chicken block the j.hp. That allows you to land and punish it for free. Honestly, you should be worried about j.lp Also, please don't move this to PW general, it's pointless. Or you can take it to SG general.

    Skullgirls Encore Edition Tiers and Matchups Discussion Thread: The Revengeance

    Well, maybe the clone properties need to be examined.

    Painwheel general discussion AKA GET OUT OF MY THREAD

    This is clearly from a distance where he would use Brass or Giant Step, not in Painwheel's face. Maybe I should stop assuming that everybody is on the same page and point these things out? Unless Heavy or Medium Brass break armour (?), none of those are going to matter. Brass x Super against it...

    Painwheel general discussion AKA GET OUT OF MY THREAD

    I was thinking more along the lines of HG shutting down Giant Step and Brass completely, with the option to cancel it into projectile xx Flight even during charge and move in behind it. Literally HG s.hp when you think he'll do anything on the ground. Unless Giant Step's long range effect also...

    Painwheel general discussion AKA GET OUT OF MY THREAD

    See, PW is totally viable and you guys need to understand that and put in the work! =) Seriously though, I think she's better than Squiggly at least. Also, I can see her beating Band easily if you don't focus on flying all the time.

    Skullgirls Encore Edition Tiers and Matchups Discussion Thread: The Revengeance

    Event hubs is using a system where anonymous users vote on tiers right? Users that may not even play the game or even enter tournaments, meaning it's basically a popularity contest? Yeah, I wouldn't pay too much attention to that. Also @Prototype, you need to either do the set-up and set the...

    Skullgirls Encore Edition Tiers and Matchups Discussion Thread: The Revengeance

    If you trigger burst with a projectile, the opponent can still act before hitting the ground. So, if clones act as a projectile, you can't do burst bait setups that allow you to get a full combo if the bait is taken.

    Peacock Assist Thread

    Fully charged SOID is a bad choice. Its only use is for combos and resets, which is a waste of an assist. I don't think Peacock has a good assist for Squiggly, either.

    Skullgirls Encore Edition Tiers and Matchups Discussion Thread: The Revengeance

    Yeah, I doubt zoning would do it, just figured MK Soldier + Tears then move in would be a valid tactic. Also, I don't think she has any grab invincible moves, so you could mix that into you're high/low game to beat her reversal options. Basically, she has to guess grab and either tech or jump...

    Skullgirls Encore Edition Tiers and Matchups Discussion Thread: The Revengeance

    Yeah, I was actually thinking about that. Also, wouldn't MK Soldier block everything she throws at you (Fireballs and Shadows) and allow Parasol to get tears and MP Shots off? I think Parasol has resets that allow her to negate HK Drill some-what (cross-ups and grabs, mainly). Avoiding Pillar is...

    People don't grab often enough, it seems. Gotta avoid that damage scaling. =/

    Skullgirls Team Building Thread

    Some type of lock-down assist. If you don't want Double LK Butt, you can go Hairball, Cerecopter or one of Squiggly's. Although you may have to re-order you team to take advantage of the new assist and DHC options. Double LK Butt would give you both a DP and lock-down assist though, allowing you...

    Painwheel general discussion AKA GET OUT OF MY THREAD

    If you're worried about push block, use c.mp and f.hk in your block strings, and Flight into j.hk. Also, s.lp into armor charge to bait push blocks or just grabbing a blocking opponent help too. Sure, you can talk about damage scaling, but you can't really have both in one meter-less move can you?

    Knowing if you're Beginner/Intermediate/Expert

    I think you want to use Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced. Expert is above all of those, and I doubt any player has really reached that level yet.

    Peacock Gameplay General

    Road Roller as an assist would be useless. The real strength of getting it on point is you can immediately charge another item drop, making Tenrai and Road Roller her best item drops. Since the assist has to go through cooldown, you wouldn't benefit from it happening.
