    Bad at Blocking, Crappy at Comboing, and On My Way to Greatness

    Hey, I remember playing you. Along with Sunset, I can relate to not having anyone else to play games I liked with. But that all changed here. While I rarely can find people of low enough skill or experience, I can always find people to play with and people who like to help. I will find you...

    When I finally got the timing down to rejump, I read this and raged silently. But this is helping with making the j.LP happen. I'm still rarely able to make it past that, but being at this point does feel good. It took FOREVER

    Oh. I thought it was in the right place. If only fixing problems in-game was this easy.

    There has been the general issue of "jebus this thing is huge". But it hasn't been as bad as I was expecting. I bought the RAP V because of the button layout. Everything is so much closer together than the RAP 4, and that has made a difference. I know many people love the Madcatz...

    Well no new progress on my new combo. It's a really difficult transition between 75% speed and normal speed. I forget how fast paced the game is until I play around with game speed. And after a couple days in the training room, I was a mess in the lobbies. I do learn more in the training...

    Time for more dumb questions! When you say 'wake up', what does that mean? Is that like...where after you do a hard knockdown on an opponent? I have begun to mash a super while locked down in a corner to try to counter. Gllt recently taught me this, and it has helped me out many times...

    As I am learning a new combo and a new tool in Valentine's Bag-O-Tricks, I have finally learned how to do something that I have been trying to do for a very long time. I'm finally beginning to do a Val combo where you must land and then rejump to continue said combo (like j.HK > land > rejump >...

    Dang, I say something and this thread gets so lively. It's great that so many people become involved here and always offer words of wisdom. From the videos i'm using for training and conversations with other Val players, her level 2 super seems to REALLY only be desired under one of 2...

    Very few people use Valentine's Level 2 blockbuster, Countervenom. I have avoided it because it's a tough one to pull off in a match, and the super itself isn't an attack. Even though I know the trick to pulling of 'Z' patterns, they can still be tough to execute. This really just means I...

    I think my cat was mocking my gameplay again last night...but he had a good point:. My reaction time is still awful. I either am doing one of two things: 1. Not anticipating correctly anything that ends up coming. 2. Unable to react to anything that is coming fast enough to avoid the...

    My issue is still consistently zoning Beo and other characters that rush to you to attack or grab (consistency meaning that I goof up on inputs). But I did finally work someone that out in the training room yesterday. With accurate zoning and some well timed assists, Beowulf is manageable...

    Oh ok, I remember now. I'll shoot you a friend request this evening. I'm always open to play a few matches, and wouldn't mind helping in any way I can. My advice is poor at best, but it's time I begin to pass on all the help I've been given. 4 months isn't a long time, but it's long enough...

    Over the weekend, my game was stupid bad. Turns out, there's a reason that isn't my fault! My fightstick is beginning to die. It's in the joystick itself. Sometimes air dashes werent registering. I confirmed this in the training room. So I bought a real fightstick (I hate calling it...

    I did figure out last night that throwing Val's projectiles while on the ground messes with Beowulf. Still having an awful time with my timing, but it's nice to know that I now have something for him. Still hate Beowulf tho Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    Maybe I should be more honest: I see Beowulf and know a loss is coming. I can't handle his pressure, his grabs, or some of his attacks that appear to take up the whole screen. Blocking only ends up in being grabbed. Is there something that I don't know?
