To be clear, she needs to be nerfed. With precision of course, but let’s not let this “fair top tier” shit get to our heads. She is WAY better than she needs to be.

Agree mostly. I will add that even both presets are somewhere in the top 10, it’s going to be difficult to balance Digital Soldier without overly nerfing Yas Queen (which in my opinion is substantially the more interesting of the two).

Other than “ggs,” there’s no reason for players to be messaging each other. Ever. It just causes problems.

F13 is safe with Orbital. “But two meters fjbwifjhsksbfksjdhdjjd” holy shit, man. Play the neutral till you get the meter back. You meter extremely quick in this game. You have a safe combo starter with a 10 frame mid and one of the best D3’s in the game. Count your blessings. You could be Kotal...

No need to be sorry. Though I agree Lao doesn't need an overhead, people are a bit sensitive on this site.

Says the guy complaining about single-hit attacks that are negative on block.

I feel like that doesn’t address the point, though: why are you and the rest letting opponents mash three pokes in row? That makes me suspect of the non-vocal majority’s ability to play the game properly.

No.

To be clear, I'm only talking about Lotus. I'm not defending hat tricks. But you won't get blown up if you're doing Orbital. That's my point. You're never taking a risk with F13 as long as you have meter. There is this ongoing narrative that if Lao does orbital for safety and loses the two...

F13 is absolutely hit confirmable. When the 3 comes out, you ex-spin if it hits and you Orbital if it doesn't. If the latter happens, you're safely out of range and can reset your footsies. But that's if you even do the 3. If they're baiting the flawless block, you can continue your pressure...

Yes. I am. You get rewarded JUST for playing defense in this game. People fighting Fate in IJ2 would have been very grateful for this luxury. If existing is too difficult, there's always Geras and Scorpion.

If you look at the character, it's very obvious what Paulo was trying to do. F21212 was CLEARLY meant to be a punish string. Those highs are Paulo's way of telling you, "this isn't for neutral. This is for optimizing damage. Enjoy." But people aren't getting it. Same thing F21: this is a whiff...

Nor do I think Oak is dumb. Nothing against the guy, personally. Though I think Kung Lao is good, he's probably top 15 at best. If he thinks Lao is bland, all good. Different Strokes. However, if you're going throw out a condescending response such as "Bro, you're just wrong," you need to have a...

Then instead of staggering the D1, press 3 and confirm into free 240 points of damage. Once they realize they're not allowed press buttons, do your pressure. If you're afraid to stagger without plus frames, then you'll never get the most out of your characters. Yet you didn't know that the...

-5 doesn't mean reactable. The first active frame of 2 after F1 is less than 20 frames. Beating me with a top 5 character like Sub isn't going to change the fact that you don't want to lab.

I love Aris, but I'm not here to convert anybody. I do wanna clarify a few things on Kung Lao, though. 1) Yes, there are situations where regular spin will whiff. Once you recognize these situations, you can fix this with amplify. This has remedied all my spin-whiff situations. You just gotta...

I agree fatal blows are dumb, but this isn’t the best solution. Reduce damage and make them unsafe and we should be good.

Hmm.

The only good finishers are friendships.

Really good video. My worry is that none of this will be possible since you need two slots to utilize run and cancel. I don't foresee this being available in the presets.
