Legit question. Even if you sandbag, if you sandbag too hard they'll know you're sandbagging and it'll do more harm than good. Ask em who's the most difficult to learn or play, go there and agree with them. Helps cover the sandbagging. #oldmanstrats -

I would much prefer it if the forums required linking to your game account and showed your rank on every post . I know few people would like being advertised like that but I feel it would solve so many game argument issues that full anonymity brings. -

I remember the elitist comments, but also, that was half the point of the site. This wasn't a general gaming population it was FGC specifically. You went there to learn. To git good. It wasn't about opinions. And yeah people didn't mince words, but I still found it friendlier than the Usenet channel. alt.rec.games.sf I think it was called? Feral place. You couldn't upload videos back then to prove anything so... Oh boy... Best you could hope for was others outside the argument to try things out and add their voice. But even then with no training mode or hard numbers on stuff... -

lol I think he's just being facetious af. But. When I tried getting a date with black girls my "golly gee you look swell in that skirt" got me nowhere. So I'm not saying he's wrong specifically... π -

Yeah, hard agree. Each floor measuring "input techniques" instead of raw win rates is so much better for so many reasons. Being offered the celestial challenge is an acknowledgement that you know how to play the game. Like, anyone can be diamond if they hit their AAs and do the combos, but to go past that requires more on the human, psychological side. Computers can't measure that, so into the deep end of celestial you go. ELO could be displayed in-game but I'm not sure it really adds much since RU has it covered. The one nice thing about ELO is you can compare it to other games, other genres, even outside videogames. But I believe it's very important in pvp games because there isn't much else to do *except* git gud. Like that Alpha2 ending, sometimes the journey's more important than the destination. I've always been fine with the lobbies but tbh if it was that chibi 3D style thing I'd hate it. 2D metroidvania look, β€οΈ And yeah, joining some discord person's room, I DO enjoy seeing how they decorated their house. -

Fair. Why punish a zoner who's losing to a grappler whom can TOD you if she wants to stand at the edge of the skyscraper and review her life choices? The icies player don't need any help here. A brief glimpse at twitter and it seems most of the scene is on the TO's case for that, but the TO is doubling down on his dumbfuckery. (The tweet showing that TO's player record at 35% winrate, "this TO has no patience in anything" is hilariously on point tho) -

I'd love if Ryoko from Fighters History made it over since her series is defunct. But that would be less a guest appearance these days than just a straight up adoption. π₯Ί She's judoka, a grappler with moderate walk speed, tiny body, stubby limbs, high floaty jump, a charge back move that rolls forward through projectiles, and two command grabs that overlap each other, range deciding which. Not a grappler type I've seen around before. -

Yeah I've read dating isn't a cake walk for women either, but their struggles are very very different from ours. Stay strong out there brosπͺ -

There's a difference in it being a system wide mechanic vs it being on half of one low tier's normals when he hasn't already had his weapon beaten off of him. -
