    Chronicles of the UOP King : Cross Generation of Garbage Gameplay

    My experience today in the danger room with @Fedora_Ninja and @joshb911 : Good Games. I got dunked hard in the beginning, Fedora uses a lot of the characters I hate fighting. I started to get more of what was going on by the end of it. That was actually the most fun I've had in this game in...

    ...Josh's struggle to not suck...

    Thanks for the hype matches, I'm glad the tips worked, it will only work to an extent though. Really good players know their characters' weaknesses, and will work around them. This is that "use who you're comfortable with" thing again. Gimmicks aside, it will ultimately boil down to you...

    ...Josh's struggle to not suck...

    The advice is basically my own. I've gone through this process in a lot of different games. I write a lot of shit when mornings run long and people start avoiding me in quick match. A lot of it is inspired by things people would say in my Marvel 2 days. There are also still some really good...

    Chronicles of the UOP King : Cross Generation of Garbage Gameplay

    I got bodied by a Fukua playing lame today. A lot of it was just me dashing in. I guess I have to work on that terrible habit, I must have picked it up playing against these online Peacocks. None of my teams feel right still, even after several hours in training mode. I need to learn to...

    ...Josh's struggle to not suck...

    I'm not a pro by any measure, so here's my thoughts from someone in a similar position. Take my "knowledge" with a grain of salt. I would say to learn how to beat what you get blown up by the most. It's probably the most frustrating way to go about it, but I think it's the fastest way to get...

    How much do we have to pay for a good boss?

    I actually rather like Marie as a last boss. I feel that she conditions the player to have to be patient, block, and recognize patterns and areas of danger. She has armor, a defensive wall, a grab, an overhead, and a little bit of Peacock projectile spam in there, which I think is actually a...

    Chronicles of the UOP King : Cross Generation of Garbage Gameplay

    I experimented a little bit with Squigly on point. Seems to be working alright, despite her being an incredible support. Consistency is a little better, which is sorely needed. It's so hard not to just use other peoples' teams, just to have a toolbox I can understand well. I got a couple...

    Thank you for making a game where things are well-thought out and fun to play. Where we're given problems that require our awareness and engagement to solve, and where we're given something fun to actually do. I just thought that it needed to be said. Ten more years.

    I'm Just Going To Say Stuff (Ask Me Things Too <3)

    What do you consider players to have to be able to do, to be "truly skilled"? You mention that you aren't "good" by your own standards anymore, what are those standards exactly? I want to know your opinion on what traits constitute a good player, or at least what you think is most important...

    Chronicles of the UOP King : Cross Generation of Garbage Gameplay

    Fair Warning: I have a tendency to drop huge, living, breathing walls of text that are a mausoleum of equal parts wisdom, trashy bad opinions, and pointless exposition. TL;DR - I am a (very) low execution player that values mindgames and strategy and would appreciate any honest advice. So I'm...

    The team palette-matching thread

    I try to go red, black, and white when possible. I don't really know what I'm trying to go for, evil? I guess I just try to make it obvious who's playing.

    Anime/Manga General Discussion

    I think it's mindblowingly amazing. Then again I'm a sucker for anything Type-Moon puts out. Maybe it's all the waiting. If they can keep the current level of quality going, this'll be a good year for me indeed.

    Skullgirls Gameplay Improvement Thread - Post your videos!

    I can never seem to beat any of the trio teams leading with Valentine or Parasoul. If you need more videos, check the channel. A couple of caveats: 1. My neutral game blows. I'm the slowest player in the world. My best reactions are about 4-6f. This is a health issue, there is not really...

    Valentine's LV2 not freezing supers when own assist is on screen?

    I had to fix stuff like this all the time. I was more of a janitor than a creator, fixing all the unblockables, busted combos, glitchy throwing states, and derpy counters that other people made. I stopped because of AI and state limitations in the engine, so enough about mugen. The usual...

    Valentine's LV2 not freezing supers when own assist is on screen?

    Here's my guess at the game engine's logic. Edited for readability. Keep in mind that this is just a guess, I don't claim to know how Skullgirls' engine works. 1. Painwheel is hitting your assist. 2. You counter to freeze Painwheel, she is still hitting your assist. 3. Your counter absorbs...

    Introduce Yourself!

    I can't find any matches right now, so... I'm Ravendeth, or Dethy, out of the midwest. I'm an "online warrior" who has been grinding ranked on and off for about two months now. If you play on PC lately, you've probably seen me around. I broke my ps2 pad a couple hours before Eliza came out...
