Just for context, I play Marisa and Zangief, so I do not have a real reversal that I can use on wakeup aside from using my meter.

A lot of people keep barraging me with light attacks whenever I am down, and it leads to this extremely annoying loop, where if I get hit by any of them, it goes into a knockdown. If I block them, they either wait for me with a frametrap, it turns into a tick throw situation, or it just goes back to neutral, except now I've lost drive gauge.

Aside from not getting knocked down in the first place, is there anything I can do against this sort of offense? Or do I just have to take it?

I got my first Deathless character yesterday, and I think he's absolutely awesome. However, I'm wondering if they'll be ascendable someday, like how the Stellar Forged characters are. What are the odds of that happening?

It feels as if a lot of the characters that have been released lately are very... 50/50. You have the strong ones like Nico, Yelena, Bastion, Zola, Spider Woman, Pav, Lizard and Jean Grey for example, which get talked about plenty. But then there's the other half, like Dracula, Franken-Castle, M'Baku, Wave, Pixie, Mr. Knight, Silver Samurai and quite a few others, that you rarely ever hear about or see. Why is that? Do people just not like those characters, or is something else going on?

It's possible to see it, but I have to squint my eyes really hard to see where the end exactly is due to this big, red dot, and I wish they could put it somewhere else

For example, how is Knull an L, but Warlock is an XL? They seem to be very similar in height.

And the same thing goes for Howard the Duck and Venom the Duck. How is Howard an L, but Venom the Duck is an XL despite them being the same size?

Something I've noticed while playing this game is that people tend to give up and throw the match pretty often, but I never understood why this keeps happening. I don't remember it being this common in 7, either.

Why not just pull the plug or alt f4 at that point? It's such a waste of time for both of us

The biggest of GGs to this guy, his King was amazing. Close sets like this make me feel like there's still a lot of fun to be had in this game.

I've been testing some weapons, and the assault rifles and light machine guns have a ton of spread, so much so that I end up missing everything. Am I building them wrong, or do I need to stick to SMGs?

I've never seen this before on the Fight screen, and I have no idea what it's supposed to be. It just sends me to the Alliance Quest like the button above Alliance War

I think he's a blast to play personally, but it's very hard to resist the urge to just keep throwing out heavies, especially when the opponent is stunned and their Special gauge is going up.

I also think that the synergies he gives are great, even though I can't test all of them yet. They definitely make it easier for both Howard and Titania to ramp up, which makes them quite a bit better.

How do you guys feel about him so far?

Just out of curiosity. I've been playing for almost a year now, and I'm still not even close to a single piece. How long did it take for you guys? And did you specifically focus your Units to get one, or was it done through challenges?
