no dude grapplers can't be top tier it's unfun and a sign of bad design and terrible for new players you gotta trust me like we just can't have top tier grapplers ever because it's just so unfun and bad unlike every other kind of top tier which are all fun and good
ngl it mildly bugs me when people say a game has no neutral because people don't shuffle back and forth and whiff buttons at eachother for 20 second intervals
it's really goofy to me when people just blanket say all old games have like infinites or unblockables or whatever because like even in games where that's true what matters way more is that you can press buttons that look like this
i bet none of those fake darkstalkers "fans" can name any characters besides morrigan. they don't even know about super cool characters like brunkletug and don smegma
honestly I'm still not over dmc3 having like themes and stuff because half of the time people talk about that series they make it sound like the most vapid crap ever
people talk about how it's kinda silly that pot is still paying for his ac crimes but like vega has been paying for st crimes longer than the average street fighter player has been alive
normal fighting game player: ken's my favorite top tier because I like it when strong characters are good at playing the game :)
your psycho fighting game friend that has replaced their dna with the neo geo bios: dude you gotta check out slash genjuro
every fighting game has neutral it's like part of the genre it just looks different and sometimes extremely fucking stupid but like even in games where characters can rocket at you at will like your spacing and ability to outmanuever your foe like is a big part of how you win
I can't believe this ancient jam faq actually has the input for doing the burst cancel on it because I have legit been wondering how you actually do that for years
it's badass that we just had a conversation about why there aren't more women in the fgc and now we're having another round of hey we should let the guy that beats women back into the scene
nobody is brave enough to make a "what's a 4chan post that's so embedded in your head that you make shorthand reference to it, even if people might not know what you're talking about" post, but this would be mine
unironically feel like +r is one of the most balanced games I've ever played so it feels weird when some characters get singled out as ruining the game
it's really cool that we get a post every so often that's just "I think the fgc should be nicer" and every time it gets pushback from like the most annoying people in the world
fightcade is a miracle program that is extremely important in a lot of ways and enables us to play basically a good 60% of fighting games and some other stuff with other people and also it is the fucking worst program ever and I never want to use it
I get kneejerking to this because yeah it is kind of silly but also if someone tried to out mental me in +r by exclusively picking under construction I'd want to make their head explode scanners style
