    Review My Highborn

    I have been maining HB for a while now. I have gotten better with letting go of DB2F at the right time. I love using Sai toss, I think its one of the best zoning tools, and Sai cancel is fun to reset neutral with. My main problem is whiffing issues with B231 and B14. That and sometimes I try to...

    Review My Sindel

    I have 2 matches recorded, 1 where I lost against a liu kang and the other I won. I am not comfortable with the DB4F inputs yet so I haven't been doing them in matches. I tend to stagger with most characters and aim when I hop attack. Thats just my style. Hopefully I can react to strings hit...

    How to defend against staggers/mix-ups?

    I started practicing in the lab everyday for half hour and set my AI to 4 recordings of the same string just with different mix ups. When practicing against staggers, is the goal to "make the right guess" or "condition myself to commit to a guess, regardless if I'm right or wrong". When in a set...

    So why did YOU rage quit?

    Disclaimer: Not trying to call specific characters cheap or seeking advice on how to beat them. This is purely situational. 5 months in and I finally RQ. Not plug pulling, I'm not that low. The opponent still got their points. I fought a Kotal Kahn who clearly was trying to piss me off, after...

    Is it best to have 1 main or play a handful of chars?

    As someone who has jumped from char to char I'm a little envious of players who were loyal to 1 character since release. Its good to know more than 1 character obviously but some players seem to perform better when they legit know everything about the character they're playing with. This game...

    Is Frame-Data worth memorizing before Patches/Nerfs & Buffs?

    Because imagine shoving a ton of block advantage in your head only to find out that paticular moves frames changed after updates. Been kicking myself for not reading my frame-data study cards everyday like I promised but considering just to "learn as I go" through ranked matches until patches...

    Has anyone actually pulled off geyser kb in ranked?

    The geyser kb prerequisites are ridiculous. You have to miss 3 times for it to come out. Its never worth the risk because its 28 start up. Unless Cetrion has a stagger that leaves the opponent stunned long enough to whiff geyser, and then retreat to block any punishes, its hard to believe the kb...

    What's Her Race Supposed to Be?

    I always interpreted Jade as being Arabic but ever since 11 some p pl say she's black? I'm happy either way, as long as she's a person of colour, just curious. This is just a debate, not trying to instigate a lore-war.

    Punished for Winning. 15-year old girl Quits Smash after beating pro due to harrasment

    A 15-year old girl named "Bochi" beat a pro player (Ally) as the character Isabel, who is low-tier, basically the Dvorah of Smash Bros Ultimate. She has been relentlessly harrassed online and even in person apparently because salty nerds had their "Girls, let a lone a 15-year old, can't beat...

    Killing Them with Kindness.

    Dumb thread alert: Sorry mods if this wasn't warrented a thread but just wanted to write about reactions I got from trash talkers who I said "good game" to. Feeling salty, tilted and rage after someone is screaming in the mic is an uncontrollable, unwanted feeling a lot of us experience. It...

    Moniter & Wired Wi-Fi repeater recommendations? On a budget

    I really want to get serious on learning more about frame data but I can't really do it on my generic flat screen. Also I want to abondon the wi-fi stigma by going wired ethernet but I can't connect to the router in the living room without wi-fi because that room ks occupied by some one else...

    What's Up with the term "Try Hard"? Rant

    I literally found out about this derogatorive term last week because as soon as I connected with someone on kasual, the dude over the mic started yelling "ITS A TRY-HARD" in an intentionally goofy loud voice & repeated over the 3 matches. He must have saw I was level 61 & he was 27 or something...

    Kitana Human Skin with Revenant Outfits

    I always thought Kitana's default human outfit is dull compared to her MKX outfit. Had they kept her emperor revenant outfit from MKX and used the revenant armor in MK11 as her human default, I feel like feedback on her overall design in MK11 would have been better. They should give us the...

    How do I improve my reaction time?

    I am getting real frustrated with my self because I always can sense a specific move my opponent is about to use but that part of my brain doesn't connect to the reaction part of it. I can tell when they are going to throw but I can't tech because the reaction is always afrer the rest of the...

    Should Damage Scaling allow Geyser a second AMP?

    So I was practicing Geyser, UP-Down-F, 11, F13, Geyser in the lab, and noticed I still had one offense bar left after amplifying the first Geyser but noticed the second Geyser in the combo could not be amplified regardless, due to general combo limitations. I think its like that for all...

    Rate the intro dialogue above you.

    I thought it'd be fun to do a little group intro dialogue writing thread. It can between any characters you want from any fighting game. I'll start with Stryker vs Error Black: Error Black: Here to fight or YMCA? Stryker: My attire is strictly formal Error Black: Let me show you informal konflict

    Are there any Dvorah mains who have custom variations that compensate?

    Its no news that Dvorah is considered low tier which is unfortunate because I actually realy like her. Do anybody who mains her have any custom abilities to 'balance out' the amount of unsafe moves she has? Or are all of her moves unsafe in general. Do mains do just fine with her tourny...

    Mysterious Woman in Jade's M9 ending revealed to be her mother

    I would have never thought of that, I'm almost mad I didn't. I always disagreed with people who thought it could be Kronika, because there designs ar pretty different from eachother. Wonder what that says about Kitanas MKX ending
