This is what you should do:

Record the computer doing a blockstring you think is a frame trap. Play it back and try everything in your power to mash out of it. If you can, it's not a frame trap. Testing things yourself is one of the best ways to confirm if something works or not. This works for both sides. Record an opponent's pressure strings in training, play it back and see what you can do after it. It'll help you learn some matchups.

If you're getting hit out of certain things, test it out. Maybe it's the way you timed it, maybe it's not a frame trap at all, maybe it's just lag. You don't know until you can confirm it.

its not wasteful because it makes them block which lets you do the things you want to do

every match has steps to it. first step you gotta make them block. then you can move onto mixup. it sounds like you try to skip right to the mixup so they arent ready to try and block it yet

but how long do you make them block?

because i can make some block others refuse to do so no matter how many times i tk hotaru mid string to FC them.

there are just some that REFUSE to those are the people i cannot seem to control

and those are the ones i run into the most.

ggs to TD sorry if i wasnt up to par. Ill work on it.
you did alright, there were some points where I felt outplayed. you have a decent grasp of the neutral game. oki was a little weak, but you had some decent pressure and abare. this was an interesting set. ggs

i dont even know how.

also im arguing with errol just because.

Nooo, I was deltavirus_. ^^

Always so hard to understand you. let me try to interpret.

1. People press buttons after blocking something of yours.

2. You try to "disrespect" them by using gurren in your blockstrings or something and get thrown.

this is independent of:

1. You never blocking on wakeup

2. Your infrequent use of disrespect tools after blocking (see #1)

What button mappings do you actually use to be using r2 for barrier..

Well, I use the control scheme I used for CT - square for a, triangle for b, x for d, and circle for c

r1 is throw, r2 is barrier. l2 is rapid cancel.

I tried switching r2 and r1 but it still sucks. If anyone has a better control scheme, please let me know. I tend to get screwed over sometimes when barrier doesn't come out. I think the triggers are sensitive.

I thought you'd be using some normal buttons on your triggers, but if it's a combo button (barrier), then attacks shouldn't ever come out right. Unless you were pressing it in a place where you can't barrier?

It could be that. I figure that I'll just have to be careful then. Idk, its so weird sometimes.

guess there is also that you have to hold back to barrier. Forgot that one, pressing back and pressing button(s) can be out of sync too.

I guess that's the case here too. I think I'll practice that in training mode and be more careful.

I use L1 for barrier. You use the D-pad for blocking, so why have the special block function mapped to the opposite side of the controller?

And yeah, pressing barrier trigger without holding back will cause an attack to come out. You're basically pressing A+B.

I was used to that control scheme, that's why. But L1 as barrier? How are your other buttons then -the triggers?

Good games to Silfer and Lovebird I believe. Primers, and certain moves that break primers make me hate this game, among many others.

When CP?

anyone want to play

it appears PSN is blowing shit out its ass. NEVERMIND

also, I use L1 for barrier, L2 for burst, R1 for throw, and R2 for rapid which I sometimes use for OS throw.

christ i thought i was the only one.

do you guys have big hands? or do you play that 'claw' thing style like a stick? xD

I personally can't press A and B comfortably with the same finger :C so i use L1 usually
