Sparties's Training Diary

how's the squigly v.s. eliza match-up look for squigs? bad or good?

Really good imo just watch out for air dash air grab and be patient. You can keep her out relatively well and once she gets in you have tools to get her off you.

You can react to her trying to jump in with j.hp, sbo j.lk, c.mp, and silver chord.

On the ground you can be away and try to tag her with a sing or silver chord.

If she gets in on you can reversal with charged dp or sbo right above you if she tries to go for the left right j.hp stuff.
Once you get in she can't reversal much, just watch out for lv3 once she has it. You can beat her dp with a jumping attack right above her head. Also you can just grab her out of her dp.

I think it might be more damage to do item drop instead of L George in the first chain. Also this is 3 bars :^)

I'll try Item Drop instead, but I think the reason that I do that is because I can't press certain buttons simultaneously on my controller. It gives me weird outputs.

My assists are set to left bumper and left trigger. If I try to do an H teleport while calling something like Bomber, it keeps me in the same place and a George appears on the other side. I don't know, tbh, if it's the controller or my shitty inputs.

Plus, I'm a fucking weirdo. I hold a button for L Item while inputting other moves for other projectiles, which is a pain in the ass, but I don't have a fightstick and I'm used to it, so. :^)

Also, shit, you're right, it is three bars. I guess I put two because that's logically what I do when I have two bars. I'll edit it later.

@akindhobo Thank you!
 
OH SHIT I FORGOT @mcpeanuts
What do you do do convert after air grab j.lk? I always miss confirming after j.lk, and it's killing me literally and metaphorically speaking.
 
jesus sorry for the triple post, but i did a thing and i just wanted to have it here to look back at

s.LP. It's easier if you walk forward slightly before the j.LK, you're plus enough to do that if it hits deep enough.

Nice!

oh, that makes more sense!
are my combos looking okay?
 
yay, progress

also, if anyone feels like stomping me and critiquing my play, i wouldn't mind being sent an invite or a message 'cause i'm never online at the same time as anyone else.

well, i might retire from SG and just play toontown, lmfao.
how am i gonna max out my toon if i'm always playing this? i really think i need a break from some people here, too.
i'm just gonna say it's been fun, thanks for all the fish, and i'll be on hiatus for a while.
a long while.

quick question, what is the best combo route to take after landing painwheel's charged s.hp or c.hp?

I normally just cancel it into L Buer and go into my normal bnb because I'm lazy. I believe the optimal route there is to link another s.HP, I'm pretty sure you have the frames to do that.

quick video. tried to make a hard-hitting combo using painwheel and bella midstage.
hatred install is totally optional; i just wanted to see what the damage was like with it. i mainly recorded this to remember the moves anyway.
 
video requested by dio for fairly simple combo off diamonds
11.3k 1v1
 
at the moment, i'm focusing on fortune/bella/double. i'm really getting into headless! it's fun, gives a lot of pressure with bomber, and i'm learning the combos kinda! so what are some tips for offense with her? i'm a bit crappy at maintaining head placement, and i really don't know what to do in the air. i feel like i kinda get bitchslapped back onto the ground 24/7.
 
why did no one tell me this could be done
 
Because there are way easier methods of punishing Pillar xx Bikes, you likely aren't going to AC as fast as this in a game, and Parasouls mostly cancel to Sniper anyway?
 
if you mean sniper as in sniper shot, i'm mildly concerned with that statement because most parasouls i've played will go from pillar to bikes, not shot.

indeed, bikes is a lot safer than shot. if you will cancel pillar in shot, you may as well not cancel it lol

also, i'd like to run a ft10 against someone who can smash me and critique my play. i really need it. i faced shademoneh last night and managed to keep up with at least 6 matches, but he won overall. it felt good getting some genuine practice in, so help me, pls.
 
Sparties said:

Might as well just do the normal punish since it doesn't require meter (after pillar, jump and hit them with anything, works everywhere apart from when Para has her back to the corner and then you can just PBGC it).
 
oh that's why i was testing half that stuff in the first place, to make sure i could do the normal punish. it was just kinda funny to see that it worked.
 
faced fenster yesterday. all i've noticed about my play tbh is that i need to really focus on my defense. not only that, but it's really easy to get into my head after a few resets, so i guess that's more of a psych problem.
my headless fortune improved, but i can always get better. head management still needs to be worked on.

i went to a ft10 with shademoneh, and the real problem for me was just blocking filia. that's always been a problem for me, haah, but all this really ties in with is my defense problem.

Fortune/Excellabella was actually Guitalex's team for Evo 2013. That's your Monday Fun Fact

perhaps i'm making a very big mistake in doing so, but after watching more matches w/ robo fortune, i decided to pick her back up as a sub. please kill me.
 
No don't, Robo is actually the best :3

Robo is useless, i dropped her.
She's not fun too. She's ok support because nice beam (and her headdrone assists can get really interesting if you know how to use them) but really....boring robot cat >:(

sinclair was definitely right, i'm not enjoying robo.
so now we squigboys.

squig/bella/double running with dragnbite/excellebella/bomber
it's working pretty well so far, and i'm getting pretty good meter off excellebella.

main team is still fortune/bella/double. not much to really comment on except for the fact that i suck at trying to execute any of lazydiablos' resets. :^)
