LordSpectreX Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 What I love about this thread is that blocking high or low is considered an 'Advanced Tactic'.
Linear04 Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 i swear to god some one should just make it so that as soon as blade thread opens its locked just so we can read it too
MacArthur Blunts Posted October 3, 2010 Posted October 3, 2010 I think this thread is fail mainly because you guys are talking about ACTUALLY BLOCKING a non-meaty overhead. Who the fuck would want to even block it and get caught in that mindgame? My theory behind overheads is "fuck blocking this. I'm going to get out of the pressure all together by jumping away, backdashing or OMG 5P them out of it. Hey guys, get this, instead of reacting to an overhead and simply blocking it, fucking train yourself to "block" with a move that beats their overhead.. Lets say Slayer does 5K->6K. You have enough time to easily move from low to high. But this opens up the feint mixup into throw/low/5P. You also have more than enough time to hit him out of it for a big, bitchin aircombo. Hitting Slayer out of 6K negates ANYTHING GOOD about it. No + frames. No feint. No damage. All for tapping a simple fucking 5P. tl:dr - most overheads take forever to be active. only block overheads if you have no other choice. otherwise, hit the fuck out of it.
Wirya Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 Mac said the most advanced and useful stuff on this thread. :thumbu: And Blade, you should stop wording your means extravagantly, because it's the only real weakness of you that I can see. People misunderstand each other so easily on the internet, you know?

kenja0 Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 There is a thread like this in the beginner mode: A Primer on Mixups. It's for the other end of stick and being offensive. Despite this thread being a good idea, it should really be moved to the beginner forum or discussed in that other thread.
TITANIUM BEAST!!! Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 Just...how is reaction time overrated? How? I could understand if you're talking from the standpoint of someone with bad reaction time, but even then there are tricks to enhance that...like understanding your opponent's options and anticipating them, but not actually doing anything until you see what you're looking for (AKA reacting). Also lol @ reacting to mixups. My view on it is, if you can react, it's a bad mixup. Good mixups force you to guess.

Zidane Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 "stuff" This "Blade" fellow seems like "quite" the "fool". Perhaps if "I" put "quotation" "marks" around "random" words, "my" point "will" "come" across "more" "easily". "Testing." "Testing." "Does" "Dustloop" "believe" "me" "yet"
ril213 Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 Define this blade fellow in a dictionary. I'm curious
AKA Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 /inhale AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Klaige Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 I'm pretty sure I could drink 3 bottles of whiskey....today...in succession. And that would still kill fewer braincells than reading the first few blade posts of this thread. WOW!
TheSlyMoogle Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 NO GUYS! YOU HAVE TO GUARD BAIT! YOU HAVE TOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I agree fully with mah bro Mac. Fuck slayer.

Perhaps if "I" put "quotation" "marks" around "random" words, "my" point "will" "come" across "more" "easily". "Testing." "Testing." "Does" "Dustloop" "believe" "me" "yet" Hey "guy," I don't "like" your "attitude." Clearly you're one of those "pros" who don't really "know" how to "play" games, because all "you" care about is "money."

But "maybe" if "scrubs" cared about "money" "like" pros, they'd know "what" the "fuck" they're talking "about" from TIME AFTER TIME CONFUSION IS NOTHING NEW FLASHBACK WARM NIGHTS ALMOST LEFT BEHIND SUITCASE OF MEMORIES TIME AFTER TIME
shtkn Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 *shudders* guess that's the end of that. at least we got a few intelligent posts out of what i thought would be an entirely useless topic. also, "reaction time overrated"? seriously? might as well say combos are overrated in gg/bb as well.
