Ah gotcha. Well, I'm a beginner at the game so if you've played it for any length of time, reupping your ps plus to play me probably wouldn't be worth it

lol Maybe I'll see if I can find a cheap/free trial code online for PS plus. I haven't played Tekken a whole lot since the pandemic began so you might have a chance

If you end up doing that, let me know, I'm down to mash out some games. I'm kinda enjoying playing the game casually, which is a bit of a different mindset for coming from competitive SamSho

I don't play the new one as much but I used to travel for 5 Special. The new one is a good intro to the series.

5 special is on fightcade I think... maybe I'll try it out. I played Last Blade 2 a little bit ages ago (over a decade) but I'm not sure if that is even similar to SamSho lol

Yes it is and you absolutely should. It's a pretty amazing game, it has so much to offer and is, in my opinion, the gem of the series, although there are some other great games in there too. If you ever want to spar once you get your bearings, I could show you some stuff if you're interested, no pressure tho.

LB2 is a cool game, I've played it a bit, had some people tell me it wasn't quite as deep as SamSho but there are people who like it quite a lot.

If I have the time, I'm always down to play something, almost anything. I've been crazy busy since the pandemic started with my job so I'm lucky if I get more than a few hours each week to play something.

I was excited to play Last Blade 2 again on PS4. Unfortunately, that port was absolutely terrible at launch lol I think the neutral is generally the same as SamSho, maybe a little bit more aggressive at times. It kinda depends on which mode you pick for each character. Idk, I mostly played Hibiki which I think is similar to Ukyo? Is that char in 5? LOL

Yes Ukyo is in 5. SamSho can be pretty aggressive depending on the players and the matchup
