Same here. Says I'm qualifier for no reason. Connections been shitty all night too. Think I'm gonna call it and try again tomorrow.

Edit: Go into ranked and sync your ladder information. It should fix the qualifier/gold thing
Worked, thanks. Yeah, I might play a few more with Proud but i'll be getting off soon probably
 
GGs Eyedol is crazy
But it seemed like I was winning from your lack of exp
You adapted quickly and I was still trying to recognize the strength of your attacks

Fun games!
I don't have a ton of exp with Eyedol, but you were reading me super well. You shut down Tusk's options and that's the worst thing you can do to a Tusk player, lol. Really solid matches all around.

Canary Cry Gapless Pressure
Sooo, I re learned KI, got a few games in with Kim Wu and I gotta say she is so much fun. So glad I always pick characters that focus on footsies a lot because that's what I want to focus my game around. But, jesus man eyedol, rash,shadow jago,raam, I can't block these season 3 characters for shit lol. So many lows/ OH, I mean everything looks so crazy now. Haven't played in a year basically and my god so mucheck has changed haha. I'd like to play long sets with someone or u guys now gotta get accustomed to it

@ProudDisciple Man when is eyedol at disadvantage. Whenever you were in warrior it was just pummel city the entire time. Granted playing KanRa didn't help matters but still it never felt like I had options against that guy
Eyedol's warrior stance is actually pretty punishable off blocked charge and uppercut. I think a lot of his normals are slightly negative as well.

Whenever he uses offense he would use the overhead bash move or the forward HP charge. I tried shadow countering those but the few times I do that's when he'd cancel into uppercut so I wouldn't get anything off it. According to frame data Eyedols either +1, 0, or -1.

No, a side from upercut (invinc. as heavy and also restands) he is safe a cross the board even + on specials and some normals and add to this a great restand medium (-1 on block) . Eyedol is a powerhouse when it comes to pressure (obviously only in warrior stance).

Once I get through Kan-Ra's obstacle course, I just go ham LOL

I honestly don't know his frame data since I really don't spend time in the lab
When I have time I can look it up.

I try to use lights and mediums when in close and space out other buttons and specials since I don't know if they are safe or not

His over head (F+MP) isn't special cancelable, I have to link a manual afterwards
His triple swing advancing command normal can be shadow countered but is special cancelable
His jumping HP recaptures and so does his HP Uppercutish special
His rushing headbutt I try not to use a lot unless I have Stocks or instinct to make it safe
