Let's hear it for repetition:

i mean yeah the person is probably not that good but that doesnt make the other person any less of a douche for spamming
Tough tits, yes it does.

and in some games some characters arent good against zoning, believe it or not everyone doesnt have a projectile or teleport so to speak
Tough tits, your character sucking against zoners is your problem, not your opponents.

oh and no its spamming, zoning is just keeping a distance and doing moves that support that, if you chose to pick 1 move and repeat it over and over you're a spammer
Tough tits. How do you think zoning works man? Every single zoner in every single fighter boils down to being based around basically one move that controls horizontal space, and sometimes a second move that deals with vertical space. If you end up at your optimal range, these moves are the only ones that will be of any use to you.

Online play annoys me because of some people. I stopped playing SCV online because so many people would pick fucking Ezio and spam his damn crossbow. Played one round of Mass Effect 3 online, was doing the best I could considering the character type I picked, and heard nothing but bitching about me, so that was it for that game too. Stopped playing MvC3 very often because there are only 2 ways to play offline, and that's Arcade or Versus, no versus CPU. So yeah. Looking forward to a game where it sounds like the community is pretty respectful. I just hope I'll be any good at it.
"Spam", as rags puts it, is a term used by players, that are not only bad but also don't learn how to overcome the match-up, to complain about losing to zoners.
You could have simply visited a SCV forum and asked the better players of your character on the tools you could use to get around it, and it would have been problem solved.

As for offline options, you can try hitting up your local scene. Even if you're not good the FGC is pretty cool and the people there will help you get better and show you what you're doing wrong.
I can understand if you can't make it often though. I also don't get the time to go as often as I would like.

you sound very defensive lol but okay lets say this...ill use ermac for example if you use his energy ball or whatever and they pursue then you use the force push then to knock them back then when they pursue again use the force push and it doesnt work and you use the force lift to get a few hits in...thats zoning keeping your distance with moves but if you use energy ball 6 times you're a spammming f-gg-t to me (noob and raiden are the worst OMF), even in SF you can use shoryuken as an anti air/zoning move along with hadokens and other moves so theres no excuse for spamming hadoken
you can try to justify it all you want just because you might do it but honestly its spamming and if you were really good you would have combos/other moves to do other than just 1 over and over
It isn't spam when Cage gets to F33 people for days?

Raiden can't spam anything, Noob gets blown up for whiffed clones. Are you from 2011?

to me it is, i consider it spam even if you do the same 3 hit combo over and over and thats all you do, (liu kang is the worst) raiden can if he gets you in a corner

Are you from 2011?
loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool basically but im pretty good

I disagree, it's only just begun. :)

Fred Marvel I used to think like you but then I got good. Zoners really aren't difficult to get past if you're not jumping or running into everything they do. It's called strategy.
i usually play with zoners so they arent a big deal but to say spamming doesnt exist just isnt true

No. It's easy high damage for Liu, doing less so it isn't "cheap" is silly. Raiden is no better than neutral on block, you can poke out or armor most of his strings anyway.

I can't believe that if you still think Noob spams.

liu kangs isnt high damage its just annoying and even if it was ive seen people do that 1 combo with him the whole match....thats spamming
and ive never faced a noob spammer but i can spam with him so i say its pretty bad

It exists because shitty players label anything that beats them as cheap.
shitty players do do that but there are cheap ways of winning and thats where spam comes from
i never get accused of winning cheap because i dont spam, i also dont play people i can destroy in 10 seconds because they're probably gonna be mad regardless of how you win

It's his easiest, highest damaging combo from low confirm. If I land the low, why would I not use the combo when it does good damage? Especially with the only other combo that does similar damage from that hit not being efficient out side of optimal network conditions, and even that one requires you to loop the string 3 times before the ender.





i also dont play people i can destroy in 10 seconds because they're probably gonna be mad regardless of how you win

Why are you contradicting yourself? If you're spamming with Noob and winning you're facing a bad player.

I laughed at RYX asking you if you were from 2011, then I read this:



And realized he would've been better off asking if you were from the shortbus.

What, like some guy is supposed to do a less than optimal combo on you when he catches you because he already used that combo before?

I really can't tell if you're a middling troll or an all-star retard.

But it's one or the other and nothing in between.
lmao dont get me wrong there are certain combos that are good for situations like if you teleport and i block im gonna force lift jump kick/teleport punch x2 but if you start the match doing 1 combo and ONLY do that 1 combo the entire match thats spam, sorry if you're mad it is and half the time you could get the same damage amount in less hits with a different combo that one is just easier to do so if youre so good why are you doing the easiest combo and nothing else? a scrub could do that



Why are you contradicting yourself? If you're spamming with Noob and winning you're facing a bad player.
i didnt say "I spam with him" i said i can as in im capable of doing it that doesnt mean ive ever done it against another player and i never said winning lol

Because flashy combos aren't skill? kang gets like 37% easy off his low string looped into ender. Why do less than that? Find me a good Kang who only does the low string without mix ups, please do,

Noob zones just like Ermac, uses clones to knock you down, Up knee to catch you jumping. How is that cheap but Ermac isn't?

Edit: I think I've successfully derailed most of these match up threads. :)

We need to face each other when injustice comes out.
We can do that, gotta be Xbox though. Usually takes me about two months of consistently awful play before I really start building up those dumb win/loss records. Hoping that Injustice will have a feel similar to MK9 so I won't be starting at zero.

Lol, I used Zwei, arguably the worst character in the game, and still got rage mail. Maybe you're just not hateable?
I don't know, I think I'm pretty easy to hate. I'm trying to find solace thinking "maybe they're not raging on me because they're too busy killing themselves?" but sometimes it's just nice to be yelled at over the internet. It feeds my black little heart.

ZWEI is my favorite character to fight against by the way, especially when they're good. I like to marvel at the dedication it takes to learn that guy. Dedication I'll certainly never be capable of implementing. PM me and we can set up some SCV sets if you want.

i dont use kang so i dont know his combos...but if spamming is your strategy by all means use it but dont act like spamming doesnt exist
and i never said noob couldnt zone he has a good moveset for zoning but i know i can spam 1 move efficiently with him so i mentioned it
now im gonna stop bc this is off topic :)

Yeah, I play on Xbox.

Due to the dedication and time it takes to be good at a fighting game, I usually try not to play more than 2 at once. The time when I was good at SCV has passed, I suck now. I'm playing P4U, SFxT, and starting Skullgirls. When CP and injustice comes out they'll replace P4U and SFxT though. Depending on what happens I might re-learn that game.

Why would ANYONE do the harder combo that does the same damage as the easier combo? That's just fucking stupid and inefficient as hell. The only way it wouldn't be is if the harder combo gives you some sort of positional advantage that the easier combo doesn't.

Believe it or not, you don't get points for doing harder combos. Getting the win is all that matters. The game isn't going to say "MATCH WIN: PLAYER 2, REAL WIN: PLAYER 1, because he did harder combos." Nobody is required/should try to prove anything to you. The only measure of being good in a fighter is the win.

Unless your MarlinPie. Then you can do a swag Dr. Doom Combo, teabag, pick it back up, ultimately lose the match, but still have the crowd screaming your name and getting hype.

I'll sometimes use a harder combo, if it looks cooler, to showboat. But even then I'll only do that if I don't respect the other player, or playing I'm casually with a friend.
