Hey
@EMPEROR PRYCE,
Regarding the first match (all I was able to watch at the moment), it seems that you were doing something I did alot and had to try hard to get out of the habbit of...That is playing the small game.. Looking for guaranteed small strings/combos without using EXs unless it was a muscle memory string (B21 EX Spear as an example)...
As a Takeda Shirai Ryu player I can understand how keeping bars in the pocket for emergencies (like being corner trapped) could come in useful, but there were many times where you could have full combo punished but only settled on kunais.... (I saw a few B3's that was consistently hitting but no combo coming out of it)
I know usually you have to pre commit to the EXs in order to start the combo, but I also know half the battle is muscle memory as well... I've noticed more and more lately, that matches I've lost is not because my technique was off, but more so because I wasnt taking advantage of my openings (specifically wasnt doing enough high combo damage because I was afraid to waste my EXs).
Once again, this is only a critique of your first match, so there wasnt much for me to see regarding your trends/habbits ect, but I will try to watch some more matches sooner than later... Which brings me to my next point:
Coming from personal experience regarding looking for feedback and posting raw footage (in your case 2 hours of gameplay) it is very daunting task for the viewing (the person providing feedback) to watch alot of the footage unedited or without any specific guidlines (trust me i've been in your shoes before and on your side it can be disheartening when you truly are looking for feedback)...
My suggestion (although more work is required on your end) is two things:
1) Did any specific matches/matchups come to mind where you wanted feedback? You can use Twitch's built in highlight tool to show only those matches then export (using Twitch's export tool) to put them on YouTube (to be able to embed them directly in the thread itself)... This way the users viewing can get a few matches to see which is less daunting and can provide feedback quicker...
2) If you cannot/do not want to go through all that, I suggest atleast labeling the video feeds themselves... Here is an example of how I used to do my long broadcasts:
3-0 vs D'vorah (Venemous) - {XBL: Gamertag} - @1:49
1-0 vs Jax (Pumped Up) - {XBL: Gamertag} - @10:03
2-0 vs Raiden (Thunder God) - {XBL: Gamertag} - @17:09
1-0 vs Kano (Cutthroat) - {XBL: Gamertag} - @26:49
3-2 vs Quan Chi (Summoner) - {XBL: Gamertag} - @30:16
1-0 vs Tanya (Dragon Naginata) - {XBL: Gamertag} - @47:21
This way, you can explain which matches you want us to watch and show exact timestamps...
Hope this helps! And keep up the training! Don't get discouraged
