Your pet-peeves netplaying.

im convinced hakumen's feet have magnets which go straight to peoples hands when they input grabs. im just like...what.

 

Well at least that explains his lack of mobility....

It's probably revenge for when Haku's Drive was unblockable and could catch you from the weirdest angles.

 

Mu-12 uses 6C? LOL 5D'd.

Bang tries j4B cross-up? LOL Drive'd.

 

New pet peeve of mine is the random disconnects from the lobby, especially when the guy trounces me. But because something went wrong in the system, the game decided to record it as a draw. It's why I no longer run on auto-save and manually do it. I don't want to look back on my history after I get decent and have a false information displaying.

[Arcus Diabolus]

Terumi players who do nothing but 6C. It really shouldn't be that safe to use at all, but you can't even consider attacking him when he is already in motion. Granted, this wouldn't bother me if counter assaults didn't cost so much heat. 

[Monarch]

Jin gimmicks. Stuff is difficult to react to online.

[Icekin]

One thing that's always bugged me is how people tend to focus so much on offense and combos, the rest of the game be damned. I'll be playing some Ragna player, and this guy will have all of his combos down to perfection, as well as pretty respectable pressure. Doesn't matter what hit lands, he will get full damage off it. But the rest of his play?

 

Are you anywhere close to him? 5AAAAAA/2AAAAAA until something hits. Did you hit him? Instant burst + RTSD. Did you counter assault him? Instant air tech and j.AAAAAA. Are you close to him as he gets up? Inferno Divider! Did you bait and punish it once? Wakeup 5AAAAAAA. Are you actually not that close to him? HELL'S....*grab*/Inferno Divider. Good god, please stop.

 

On a separate-ish note, players who do things that in theory shouldn't work, but do because either :netplay: or I'm just too terrible to punish, like attacking after blocking something way + on block (or after having something blocked that's way -), or wakeup mashing. I'm just exasperated, thinking "are they at least aware this is a stupid idea, or are they purposely doing it because they know/think I'm too bad to do anything about it?"

[NecroTheReaper]

I know watcha mean on that last part. I just IB'd Noel's assault through, tried.to 5B, and somehow got CH'd

And same guy, people who play to win so hard they would keep playing if their opponent just got all their fingers cut off and were blinded. This guy would see lag, BAM, pink grab. why did arksys even make grabs available during hitstun? I can understand blockstun, but hitstun is the modt 200% retarded bullshit concept.

[D.R.F.]

Blocked Hells fang is a good 50/50 and is part of his mixup. Best thing to do is jump barrier or downback and watch grab

[NecroTheReaper]

That may be true, but I dont think ragna is meant to mash 24/7 with his 10k hp.

And the guy I fought may have been pretty cool all around, but man his playstyle pissed me off -_- noel has never been that aggrivating to me

Not only do they include it, they actually advice you to end combos with it in the tutorial, and i've had the cpu do it to me a few times

I find purple grabs particularly frustrating when the opponent has the lead, is there any need to purple grab when you are probably gonna win anyways?

It's only stupid if you can stop them.

Otherwise it is just taking advantage of the weakness the opponent has.

[Myoro]

Its ok for me to despise CP Tao right? Right?!

 

Many men claim to hate gods.

 

But no seriously, she's whack. But truth be told, if ever there was a character with lag as a weakness it's Tao. It's like she's superman and lag is her Kryptonite. Neutral is horrible enough, but I hate what it does to her combos... 6C->5D~>A->6C->ETC corner combos drop the instant you try to A cancel. It turns a potentially 4000~5000 damage combo into two light taps and a dainty back-flip right back into neutral...

[NecroTheReaper]

See, its the fact that you just said 4-5k xD. "50 meter, wonder what I'm gonna do with it, OH WAIT, I can use it to give my high damage combos even MORE damage AND knockdown". I will say though that I know all too well how hard it is to play as tao in lag. Really bad in Ex. Give her DD ender like... 400 min damage xD

[BoltofShadow]

I agree.

Ima keep IAD D with Jin. if my opponent hasn't blocked it, why should I stop? Call it reckless, but eh.

Another peeve is terumi army haters, even if said terumi isnt that bad, they're using a "noob character", so they must be a scrub.

[Angry Guy of DE]

Terumi players who do nothing but 6C. It really shouldn't be that safe to use at all, but you can't even consider attacking him when he is already in motion. Granted, this wouldn't bother me if counter assaults didn't cost so much heat. 

But...6C is super punishable on block, just stop barrier blocking it.  He ends up right next you if you don't barrier block, it only looks safe when barrier pushblock makes it so only the tip of the attack reaches you.

[LeDom]

I'm realizing now how obnoxious it is to fight Terumis after Terumis....when 75% of the ranked matches I get are against him there's a problem.

[susano]

I only sub Terumi. I know people think he's obnoxious but I was credited with being a Terumi who at least doesn't spam 6c across the screen. Some guy in ranked thanked me for being a legit Terumi. ._.

[Angel-tastic]

Why do Terumi players even spam 6C? Isn't 6C super unsafe, like -12 or something? I know some people do Rapid Cancels for mix-up, but otherwise you'd think all the free punishes would disincentivize people from doing that.

Lag mostly. 6C is something I can't counter hit easily under lag, and sure, I could block, but my opening for attack is rather short and he generally starts blocking right back. In the end we are either going back and forth like this or a get punished for trying something else. Locally, yes, I can deal with his 6C rather easily.

 

Also I try grabs, but I swear I'm the only one with a back reaction to grabs... everyone seems to just shrug it off every single time. When someone starts grab spamming, I'm generally prone to leave the lobby after the match. They know my weakness..! *Hissss* *Runs into the nearest hole*

[NecroTheReaper]

Why do scrubs spam Jin ice car or Plat heart car? Same concept with Terumi 6C. Big hitbox, fast, and does damage. If a noob find himself able to beat other noobs like this, he doesn't havr much incentive do do anything else xD.

Though, as someone pointed out earlier, the hell is with barrier pushback? Gimme Ex pushback back.

[Icekin]

If I don't do anything about it, by all means, keep doing unsafe stuff. But when I do put a stop to it, netplayers seldom learn. More wins for me, yeah, but I'd rather people adapt and make me have to as well than play "punish the mash" all night. Not a big deal either way.

"Val Lanto"

"Val Tus!"

[NecroTheReaper]

But the person I used those on was a Noel player... Errol just doesn't understamd -cry- xD. No way to keep pressure up on a barrier blocking Noel when she can 4D ignis pressure resets @.@. Granted 4D does nothing to j.xD.

This is why I just get a knockdown and 50/50 vortex them to death, and receive hatemail and about how my character is easymode with no weaknesses and I'm like "dafuq?"

[mAc Chaos]

 

"Val Lanto"

"Val Tus!"

 i read that in his voice

[Airk]

Barrier Pushback in this game makes me super sad, because it always seem to screw me up far more than others.

Oh. That explains it.
