Your hands after learning the punish to the move that's been fucking you up: Ayo we forgor 💀

For people who are actually diligent enough to sit and train, rather than dismissing training mode as boring/tedious: They will adapt. They always do.

Bruh same, I literally play my best when I don't even try to think about the match.

The secret of brain players is that we don’t actually use reactions, we just anticipate what you do before it happens which lets us just swing early or be ready to react if you do actually do the option we’re expecting

@@sweetmamaschili4051 Absolutely. Why react, when you can gather information about a player, and use it against them?

@@sweetmamaschili4051 oh shit, sometimes I'll do that too, like when a fucker decides to air dash at me a lot I will slap them with an air grab

@@angiestrowbridge2157 why think when you can just run up from full screen and throw? checkmate brain players

ABARE XD

Heart players

This s me. I can actually pinpoint the exact second my opponent's brain breaks in 2 when I decide to go for a random dp for the lord

Dp funny

Wake up wild throw funnier tho

The "go touch grass" meme sucks because I'm literally allergic to grass. Also trees. ...Chocolate and lemons too, but you know what I mean.

One trick I heard a lot in pro streams and helps a lot is thinking about "what you cant do" instead of trying to think about "what you should do". What you should do will eventually come to you with experience, and to get this experience the most important thing is being there for as much time as possible and test things. So go to town, mash your buttoms and learn what is a good idea and what is not. Put everything that didnt work in the "you shouldnt do this" can and have fun with everything else. A (kind of literally) pro-tip that helped me A LOT when I came back to fgs (and I was like... the "played with some friends at the arcade years back" level of play before it... so mostly a newbie).

@@albertonishiyama1980 that is a new way to put it, hmmmm I might try this out

@@albertonishiyama1980 thats a great new perspective to look at things from, thank you!

The most important useful thing for making decisions is to break the game down into 5 states. 1. Recovery, when you are knocked down or getting combo'd. 2. Defense, when you are forced to block an attack or deal with projectiles. 3. Neutral, when both players have the freedom to use all of their tools, like at round start. 4. Pressure, when you force the opponent to block your attacks or you use projectiles. 5. Okizeme, when you knock down the opponent and try to set them up for the next hit. The goal should be to advance to a higher number on this list. A lower number refers to how screwed you are and a higher number is how screwed the opponent is. If you are knocked down (recovery) then blocking (defense) is a good option because it moves you up the list in a low-risk way. If you have the opponent knocked down, then resetting to neutral is a waste because you are giving them back their freedom while gaining nothing. Find out what your characters best moves are in each situation, and with just 5 moves and good situational awareness you can go from being a total beginner to an intermediate player.

@@Zadamanim that's a good way to put it brother

"still lost the set" is such a mood

A fellow Rivals of Aether enjoyer? Hell yes.

We don't think fast. We think before it happens. Before the match even begins

I was relating the concepts here to how I play Splatoon, and I ended up coming to the same conclusion. I only recently started remembering to check who's alive and who's down at any given notice.

In the words of a wise hedgehog: "huh, neat"

@@justaboringidiot1298 you mean "Your too slow!!!"

I get what you mean, but one of the reasons to use training mode is to figure out the answers to problems like this. It’s also not really feasible for there to always be 3 options to beat what an opponent’s knowledge check. Knowledge checks come in all forms and sometimes the answer is something the player isn’t used to doing.

@@absoul112 I think the problem is that a lot of games are primarily built around reliable offense. To use Strive as an example the game uses hard knockdowns, nerfed IB, and altered or outright removed some characters reversal options. Most of the good defensive options cost meter and for some reason YRC has a longer cooldown than RRC. Even if you know exactly what to do your usually worse off after spending meter on a reversal. I do think a lot of modern fighters could use a 3rd option for the defend in most situations.

me, i just use muscle memory i got from training to do the work for me.
