Your pet-peeves netplaying.

When people get desperate for a win and decide to throw pink grabs out the ass to achieve it. Netplay will be netplay I suppose.

Edit: WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH PLATINUM'S BAT?! I played against a plat today and it was just "herp fucking derp, I got missiles, spam, oh now I have BAT! -proceeds to DP like Ragna if he always had 50 meter- OOH, 50 HEAT AND PRESENTS NEXT?! And ANOTHRR BAT? YAAAAAAAAY".

Honestly, felt less RNG and more like "Platinum is now a zoner".

[mAceOfHearts]

Is the bat legitimately safe? As in, completely unpunishable?

No. Invuln f1-11, 11f start up and -11 on block. Air DP is pretty annoying to punish in whiff, though. She only has three. So, at least it run out.

I want to play a lot of you guys without legit plat XP but I can't right now :v

You play Relius, right? I've played you before a few times. Plat can jump between roles once she gets the right item. One of the most important things against a Ragna is to zone him since he shits on your normals. Against Relius, you RTSD hard.

One of the beauties of Plat is that she can switch jobs at the blink of an eye.

Who is the plat you were playing? Got the PSN?

Only if they have another, it's -11. And EX version is -7, so you'll only have time for a 5B other quick move that ranges from 7-13f startup

She wishes the bat were safe

they're probably banking on the notion that people don't tech purple throws online

 

I did this to a Hakumen in the corner for about six times in a row before he got the hint

[NecroTheReaper]

Its not like they used pink grabs the whole time. Just makes my respect for a good player go down when they only start using netplay tactics 4-5 matches in. If grabbing mid combo isn't somethin that comes naturally in the way you play, don't decide its your only way to win.

You know, I'm glad this thread of pointless bitching exists xD.

[Sashi]

Makoto said to do it. :v

[Fujiwara]

I will purple grab the fuck out of you until you make it stop working netplay or not.

Good, then I won't sit back and watch your creative combos and actually keep myself ready xP xD

[D.R.F.]

Honestly if your losing to purple throws, then your not paying a lot of attention to the game in general lol

I have the stupidest reaction times for Purple Throws, I can block overheads pretty well, I can block when i'm stuck between Relius and Ignis or Carl and Nirvana just fine, But god help me, I can't count how many times i get purple thrown and press the button, Right after the icon dissapears.

I agree.  

"Oh no!  Two giant purple exclamation points!  What should I do? (3 seconds pass) I got thrown?!  What the hell man!!!"

[NecroTheReaper]

28 frames is half a second yo. Aaaaanyway, the reason why it got me was bcause say you're playing the dame.person for 5+ rounds, up till now did legitimate combos. Then in the next round its lije they handed the controller over to someone else. If I know they're willing to pink grab, then I have no issues, but when they never used a grab period prior to that match, I don't expect them to use purple grabs of all things xP

[Myoro]

I think the Relius Purple grab loop is still in this game, you can't do its Duo Bios reset version because Throw tech doesn't give you back air options the way it did in extend. You can adapt their tech Necro, you can have the strongest netplay tactic of them all.

[StylisH]

I was being sarcastic LOL

[NecroTheReaper]

Anyway, my complaint wasn't about purple grabs themselves, but people who resort to them after losing to try and scrape that win xD

[Argent Zero]

Is it legit if the purple grabs can amass over 7000? Really risky but has a huge reward, no?

[StylisH]

I'm just glad the throw system isn't like GG's

That sounds an awful lot like how I played yesterday. I had just got done getting trolled by some guy and then stomped by an Azrael and the salt was flowing at a Dune-like pace.

What do you mean by this? If you have a way to repeatedly throw, then yeah, of course you can deal 7K.

EG: Kagura's Air Throw can be repeated infinitely.

Specifically Tager. Any combo route ending with gadget finger => rc => Air grab (purple) => aerial Buster => gadget finger => rc => Air grab (purple) => aerial Buster.

 

Does around >7000 and uses heat. A high risk, high reward, very gimmicky combo (?). If the air grab fails, you can aerial buster them if they don't do anything and just float there.

 

And when I mean it's legit, I mean if it is fair game, from a moral point of view.

[Ventus Tatshima]

People who call you scumbag for playing X character and call you free for being a specific color (What the fuck is this, The 1940's?) and also having bad performance streaks.

[Stellarcircle5]

Azraels who love to throw out Sentinel Dump all the time. Your character's existence already has me conditioned to not press buttons, why must you insist armouring through everything when I do decide to make a move. Sentinel dump -> Sentinel dump -> Senintel dump XN also appears to be a blockstring in lag. Couple that with its massive invisible hitbox and its all fun and games.

God this character is dumb sometimes.

[Monarch]

I kinda like Azrael, I always wanted a character that could body me effortlessly and make it actually look painful as well. The way he makes people ragdoll across the stage is pretty cool too.

People that are connection nazis. I can understand you not wanting to play a lag fest, no one does. But on the same coin, realize that you're playing online, lag will be inevitable. I just hate roaming around searching for people because no one wants to fight a 2V.
