Its crazy how we get to see them announce Granblue/DBFZ/UNI/Persona rollback, along with Project L stuff after Guilty Gear:Strive Grand Finals in 17 days.
Its gonna be tight.
Like…the Millia player here clearly made many mistakes here…but I just CANNOT agree with the fact that Sol just one shots her here lol. Idc about RISC or any of that. It’s actually just stupid 😭

I am going through a large range of Emotions in GBVS
-I don't want to play Zeta!
-I want to play Yuel!
-I'm not very good at this game right now but thats ok!
I'm going to commit, even if it takes me a long time. I'm going to commit.
As of today I have made it to 29 years on this Earth. Its been a wild ride but I'm glad that I'm still here with all of you ♥️ Hopefully many more to come!
1 more year for the big 3-0 😭
Genuine question for anyone that plays fighting games competitively.
How important do you think enjoying the character you play is? Do you think its worth playing characters you don't like playing because they are good/top tier?
1/2
Just gonna throw this out here before I forget. Pretty sure the combo isn't optimized or anything but all I really bothered to do with the time I put in messing with this.
But its just an example that there are meterless options to set up deep Safejumps/Fuzzy OH.

I'm trying my best to like Rising, I really am.
But its so hard to not be a bit sad when something I looked forward to for so long turns out to just add a bunch of things that makes the game unfun for me.
I'll keep playing because I do have some hope but its really discouraging
Something I really hate when discussing fighting games is when people try to oversimplify how to deal with things their character has
Like people will be like "Just do XXXXX" like thats an actual real answer when its clearly not that simple.
Random but its really annoying 😐
I've come to accept the reality that I cannot simply play to win in fighting games when it comes to character choice. Its something that I am going to just embrace going forward.
Fun is just too big of a factor for me, so I'm just going to try my best with what I get from here.
Second place in GBVS:R at Dreamhack Atlanta, good games to everyone!
That being said, I think the way I'm approaching this game is fundamentally wrong and gotta make some changes moving forward. I think for some reason I'm too scared to actually play neutral 🥹
Its k, we move!
GGST at the moment is at that point where I don't necessarily hate the game itself but hate how it exposes my lack of understanding RPS and Risk/Reward.
I truly feel like I messed up somewhere learning fighting games because I just can't find logic behind decisions in this game.
#GGST_MI
Just a J.D Fuzzy example, she can get this confirm from pretty much anything that forces opponent to stand and worst case scenerio you get Kapel pressure ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You can also Fast RC and go low and it auto confirms if they get hit by Badmoon.
Sigh, hearing all the negativity around the GBVS patch makes me extra sad...I don't agree with alot of the things they did either but....I don't see the reactions being any kind of help for a game that was already kind of falling off as it is :(
I gotta learn how to not take my losses in Strive so hard. There is something about strive that makes me feel really awful when I lose and it is having a big effect on my enjoyment of the game as a result.
Definitely gotta learn to play this game without Stressing 🥺
Listen, I’m only saying the truth and I was originally kind of optimistic BUT. I think if you want to WIN consistently in Strive at a top level…Millia is NOT it lol 😂 I love that character to death, but no, just no.
Top 32 @ LEVO but I'm out
I went into this pretty chill and lost to two really strong players so not too upset, I also think I played well so its cool.
But...I have one thing to say.
"Garuda Impact"
I feel like the personal problem I'm having with Rising is that I am often feeling like I'm fighting the game rather than the person I'm playing against.
This leads to some major inconsistencies in my play because I don't really understand how to approach this game yet 🥹
🛡️ Blocking a light dash attack leaves you at the mercy of your foe's offense—long-reaching attacks can keep them out.
While defending, stay cool and look for gaps in your foe's pressure or cross over to escape. You can also use a Brave Counter to get them off your back!
#GBVSR
IMO one of the best fighting games I've ever played. Very aesthetically pleasing and has clean neutral/footsies.
I can go on and on but I really hope people give this game a shot. Its genuinely great.
Today was one of those days I randomly boot up GBVS after a long time to play.
It was honestly really fun and it got me really wanting to grind hard for EVO so I can give my 100% just one more time for that game.
@silenthooper
Its not even a difficult concept to grasp either.
I don't understand how people are just like "Bruh he could have just done xxxxx"
Like you literally can't just lose the round FASTER for picking that option.
Gonna do a write up on my whole CEO experience when I get home. I just wanna say it was really nice meeting everyone. Was really cool to see alot the people I’ve interacted with online these last couple of years 🙏🏾 I think my love for fighting games might be coming back ❤️
Think I'm gonna take a break from Granblue tournaments until I figure some things out. I'm not necessarily having fun with the game right now and its really killing my motivation to grind and get better.
GGS to everyone I played today tho ^^
Just gonna say my take on Zeta before I take a break from rising til patch.
Zeta is not even in the same realm of power that Nier and Seox are and I think there are other characters that are arguably on her level or slightly better.
I don't think shes top 3 FREE imo.
Usually I wouldn't care about something like this, but learning how to play this game has been a difficult experience. This took me much longer than I wanted it to but I'm glad I got it done.
Time to finally try out some other characters.
Managed to win EC Ronin Rumble this week! Unfortunately was not able to defeat the Ladiva Terror
@JANinHtown
for EC 😅 (Seriously tho, ggs)
Good games to everyone I played! Great tournament as always!
Im really really feeling Yuel so far. Its hard but I think I'm on the right track on how to play her.
I think its going to take a couple or weeks to really start flowing but once I get there 😈
I will still play Zeta too, but mostly for specific MUs (Lowain🤪)
Random thoughts
-I think Zeta is busted but you have to play her a bit different than OG GBVS. Stupidly strong char tho
-I personally have more fun in the game atm playing Yuel, I think this character is extremely strong too.
- I hate Cag / Seox
-Enjoying the game alot :)
I just found out my Mother has Covid and I am close to her almost every day so I'm just going to assume that I probably have it too.
She was really really sick a few days ago but thankfully she is doing alot better now.
Guess I should go get tested to be sure...
Zeta has definitely spoiled me on so many matchups. I feel like so many other characters I've tried just lack so many options to so many situations.
It makes Zeta feel extremely strong at times. There are things that she just does not have to deal with at all.
I really really wish my favorite fighting games had better netcode. Not trying to beat a dead horse but it honestly makes me sad quite often.
Its so nice to see what rollback has been doing for other games, but I just want it for MY games now 😭
Played Ramlethal for a good 3 hours or so after labbing her offensive structure and good lord this character is ridiculous.
Idk how to play neutral yet but I def was auto-winning on offence alot of the matches I played.
Probably not entering any events for Strive till they do something to this game or I'm just gonna play Melty and drop Strive
Can't deal, game is too stupid.
GBVSR Thoughts, might be a long thread--
I'm gonna just say this now: I enjoy the game, I think its fun and for the most part I'm pretty accepting of how it is. Just some thoughts I have about the current system.
That being said......
I haven’t entered a lot of Strive tournaments since it’s release because I was alittle afraid of burning myself out like I did with GBVS. But…starting thursday I plan on entering EVERY tournament I possibly can for awhile. Feeling very confident 😌
