Hello, I've actually been wanting to make this for a WHIIIIIILE but had never gotten around to it. Soooo, here it is. I'll be putting here stuff every once in a while, or maybe often, depending on how things go. I'll also get the time to edit this post and put things like the stuff I know, etc. THIS IS GOING TO BE FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN.

Here's the set we played.


  • You jump. A lot. No matter what char you pick, the floor is lava to you. All I had to do later is chill and A train.
  • You call your assists waaaaay too much. I sat back and countercalled LnL a lot or punished the assist while you were fullscreen away.
  • All of my command grab resets landed with bella. Dunno what to say about that.
  • Your bella neutral needs work. Sweep, titan knuckle, LnL, j.mp more. Esp. j.mp. it's disjointed hitbox is ridonkulous. People's elbow isn't something you just throw out, esp. since it's got decent recovery. If I were in the right mindset I coulda punched you everytime.
  • While we're talking bout bella get some optimized combos going.
  • You practically never did any resets. With Squigly I was wondering when the low/overhead reset was coming. never did.
  • I got so many american resets with bella I should be president. All of them were from a failed air chain.
  • Do you have double snap combos? Couple of times where you won a happy bday in the corner and you just end up dropping the combo. Double snaps woulda killed something.


The problem with searching for a team that will win is that you win twice, lose 3 and then decide that that team just sucks. Instead of taking the time to analyze what I'm doing and think of what your characters can do to stop it, you're hoping that one of these characters is gonna take Big Band down.

Over all it felt like you were searching for a counter pick to Big Band when your overall gameplay didn't change. Jump like a mofucka and call dp assist in neutral.

Welcome to fighting Big Band, where everyone's afraid to do ANYTHING involving letting BB free, because he has so many moves that can fuck people up horribly.

Kinda a force of habit, playing other fighting games, and playing Filia so much...

NEVER GIVE UP TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS (peppy hare)
 
So. I've recently learned something MINDBLOWING. You can combo after a sweep, if the sweep is done right after a pink bounce..... AMAZING, RIGHT!? Too bad I'll never use this. I'm also really gonna try to get back into Fortune, even though she's one of the hardest characters for me to learn...
 
I've told many people this many times. Skullgirls is the bane of my existence. I've trained really hard, and in the end, none of it matters. Of course. It's all meaningless... Someone could not even use their main to beat me....
 
Can I ask a serious question? Now I don't want to be mean when I say this. What have you done to get better like what do you practice what do you focus on and how long do you practice each session?
Also you don't suck I don't know why you think this. The fact that I can beat you does not make me better then you I suck wicked hard at this game but as I've said before I'm going to be the best not because I'm really good at games but because I'm gonna put 110% into this game and not go down without a hell of a fight. I love the attention the adrenaline and the overall joy of playing fighting games. STOP BASHING YOURSELF OR YOU'LL NEVER GET BETTER!!!! One must have confidence to destroy
 
Gonna try Eliza out more. Been hovering towards her and she's the only character I play that actually has a sort of optimized combo. Josh recommended Fenster, so guess I'll talk to him... owo'
 
You're welcome to add me (I have almost 200 hours with Eliza), just fair warning that my gameplay is about as random as my waking schedule. I see fenster largely do the same stuff and mixups, but a hundred times more consistently.
 
I've been so busy I literally have not touched Skullgirls for the longest amount of time in my life. Feels good, actually..... No more salt... Though I do kinda miss the thrill of a good fight. Next time I pick the game up, I'll add Ravendeth.
 
Welp. It's not just Skullgirls that I haven't touched... Thanks to League, I haven't even touched any other game... Heeeelp, League's taking over my life @A@'
But yeah, I'd still enjoy having more people to play against
