Just something I thought of that could be cool that I can't seem to find. Maybe I can try to vibe code it, is there anything I'd need, like APIs or something?

I’ve given this advice so much here I figured I might as well post it. If you’re close to landing kickflips but having trouble committing, learn how to land it consistently with one foot on the board, and then the other. This will force your brain to do the part of the motion that you’re missing.

For instance, if you can already land with your back foot on the board, learn how to land it with your front foot on the board instead.

Once you can do both consistently you’ll be able to commit.

Holy shit ramlethal is SO MUCH COOLER what the FUCK did they do to her in strive.

She was my first main in strive and I’m just in disbelief. Is the whole cast this dumbed down? Is the whole game this sick? Jesus man I feel so robbed of such a cool game. I understand now why on launch people were complaining about her rework, and the game in general. Like it’s fun, but it truly feels like baby game in comparison.

Good on the avatar devs for not dumbing anything down. We gotta get back to this type of game man.

Hey folks,

I've been playing fighting games for several years, and between tekken, strive, and some sf have about 1k hours (or like 5k if you count melee).

I really have been enjoying strive lately, currently d2 trying to hit vanq with Jam, but I also feel like I know the genre can be so much more, and I know there are games out there that can meet my expectations. I'm probably going to keep grinding strive to vanq but after that I'm looking to give one of the two games in my title a try.

The two games in my title seem super fun and the most up my alley based on what I've watched/read. I'm wondering if anyone can recommend one over the other for any particular reason? For refence, I love mechanical difficulty / tech in games, which is something I feel strive is really lacking right now (I stopped playing for two years after they got rid of Ram's rekka 2 cancel). Something with fun, difficult, rewarding mechanics and deep fg gameplay would be great. Based on my digging I've came up with these two, and any help on making a decision would be really appreciated! I've looked into GBVS which is something I'm considering as well. Would love to just try them all but being employed sucks and means I only have so much time to try to get good at a game.

Just want to hear people's input here!! Thanks in advance.

The best way I can describe it is it sounds like the high D is from an electric piano preset. I was on the first piano preset and tried some others and still noticed it.

It’s almost like the note is louder and sharper than the others with the same pressure, but has also a strange overtone?

I bought a floor model because that was all they had and I’m worried it’s because the key is worn down.

I’m also wondering if it’s related to the resonant frequency of the speakers - planning to try with headphones later.

Just wondering if anyone else noticed this or if I should be concerned that I got a defective piano. I’m debating returning it if it’s just this one. Feel like for the price I should be 100% satisfied and not noticing a weird sounding note every time I hit it.

Either absolutely brilliant or incredibly lucky mis-input, if it was intentional though wp.

I guess that’s why good players stand block for reversal bait huh.

I finally got D1 after 700 Jam games (!!!). I’m a returning player, have like 300 hrs previously, hit celestial with ram before quitting, and probably put in another 50 or so since I started again.

All through plat I felt there was a very clear path to improvement, but at this point I feel a hard plateau coming on. I’d really appreciate any advice that got people through diamond to vanq.

Things I’ve gotten way better at: baiting DPs/ODs, throw mixups (sooo many wins I get off of throw > command flip > throw), meter usage (BRC > air grab, not just ripping super or blockstrings), blocking

Things I need to work on: cross-up/general Oki, aerial mixups (jump forward > aerial > AD back > aerial), blocking

If anyone has any general tips or anything I’d really appreciate.
