That is the name of the band. Yousei Teikoku. They're also known as Das Feenreich. Both of those mean Fairy Empire. The song One was used as the OP for Queen's Blade: Spiral Chaos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3FuglXqJME
I actually like KOFXV quite a bit, but haven't played it in a long time. I would need to reinstall it. I never bought Vice or Mature, which is odd because I like both of those characters and still never really had a definitive third character that I liked enough to use permanently. Perhaps I'll pursue that in the near future.

Surprise disconnect?
That's odd because I can play at people from Japan and Brazil or even just Americans on Wi-Fi with it just getting a little laggy.
But regardless, ggs. I could see the type of Santaku you were going for with Taka Arashi, just need to optimize damage in various situations. I feel like that's one of the things about Virtua Fighter that is kind of understated with all the character specific combos.
I remember reading when vf4 came out, several Taka players switched to Vanessa because she has similar types of three-way guessing situations.

>>555887987
Santaku is a three-way mixup, right? You have to guess one of three choices. That's how I understand it.
Anyway, yeah, I was mostly just mashing though I was trying to genuinely dodge some of your moves. I feel like I had the right instinct on some punishes but I guess Vanessa can't be grabbed high in that low stance, right?
I'm coming from Street Fighter so I feel like an easy punish would be Taka's command grab but I wasn't able to land it once. I guess it's because to grab someone in this game you have to condition them to stand and you can't simply throw them.
>>
I recommend doing the in-game tutorial if you have not finished it already. It's not perfect, but it explains some concepts in an alright way.
I think a thing that primarily 2d players struggle with in 3d games is respecting the plus frames. Disregarding plus frames is slightly easier in 2d since you have more fully invincible moves. But in VF, you have to rely more on things like imperfect Sabaki attacks that can ignore some move types, but not all. Closest equivalent I can think of it 2d games is like how you have moves that are throw invul but not strike invul. Or I guess like how BlazBlue has those head invul anti-airs that only protect your head and nowhere else. Taka has a few Sabaki type moves, I think 4P+K+G and 41236P, but I'm not super familiar with him, only having used him a small amount in the past.
Anyway, my point there is that you sometimes have to play a little cautiously and avoid pressing buttons at disadvantage since it can get you counter hit very painfully. Of course, like I said, there are ways around it with Sabaki techniques, sidestepping, or just reading a throw attempt (which means the opponent assumes you'll respect their frames) and hitting something anyway. But that last one usually takes a bit of conditioning.
When you get put into the side turn state, it's usually better to just guard (or to attempt a 2P maybe if you're feeling really lucky) because the opponent gets bonus frames from a side turn, as your character has to spend 3 frames turning back ground. So suddenly a 12 frame 5P move becomes a 9 frame move that you can't really do anything about other than crouch guard. Of course, they could just do a mid that comes out in 15 frames or less and win every time. (because even in the case of what would normally be a trade, the mid wins out because the VF priority system lets the highest damage attack win)
>>555888784
Yes, that's what Santaku is.
When Vanessa is in the low stance, low attacks are your best option.
Throws are 10f

So while some moves can't be punished by strikes and are specifically throw punishable (the -10 attacks like Vanessa OS 3P+K > K, aka Upper Heel Sword), those kinds of situations are somewhat rare. Generally, the higher the disadvantage, the better off you are just using a launcher for more damage. There can be a reason to use a throw, such as better positioning (or something like getting a drink as Shun Di), but yeah, you usually get good okizeme off of the right combo anyway. For example, if Vanessa guards a move that's -17 she gets a guaranteed launcher with Hawk Strike, which leads to huge damage, potentially 80+. But her best mid-screen throw will only give 70 damage. So it's not a bad option, especially if you don't know the best combo for that situation, it's just not the optimal one usually.
Tying into what I said earlier, pressing buttons at disadvantage can work if you read a throw or if you think they're going to purposely use a slower, heavier strike that takes advantage of their plus frames, but it is really risky and often leads to the opponent baiting you with a mid that counter hits for even more damage and frame advantage. Or even a potential counter hit-only combo.
I liked your eager use of wakeup attacks. Some people play a bit more passively and are susceptible to getting hit with down attacks. Of course, while wakeup attacks can be good, getting too predictable with them and relying on them too much can get you in trouble. Vanessa can bait them pretty easily with her charged 44K+G. I feel like using wakeup attacks a lot is the VF equivalent to mashing DP on every wakeup. It will catch people that don't know their anti-wakeup options, but it will make you take more damage against those who do know how to apply pressure in okizeme situations. Sometimes, it's better to just do a normal P+K+G getup or even to roll away as you get up.
You'll probably do well with Taka in the future. He's uncommon, so many don't know how to do damage on him.

This is not ot imply that throws are bad in VF, of course. It's just that their application is not the exact same as in 2d games. As you know, even command throws can be broken in 3d games. And that puts the defender at a big advantage of +5. But throws have a couple of very good things about them. For one, they track in both directions. So if you read a sidestep coming, you can just input whatever throw you want and get the opponent. They can tech that as well, sure, but I mean it's still a unique application of throws. The other important thing about VF throws is how the opponent only has a 1 in 3 chance of breaking correctly. It's not like Street Fighter where you're just worrying about 1 kind of throw break. Rather, you can just use a type of throw that you think the opponent isn't looking for, like a 4-break, and they will take a huge amount of damage all at once. And since throws have no tell other than being a high or low startup animation, they never know what kind you're using. It's a pure prediction. With "grappler" type characters such as Taka, Wolf, and arguably Vanessa, it's even better because their throws can knock off a thrid of the health bar at once. And I mean that as a universal value because health is normalized in VF. Taka, Jacky, Sarah, even Eileen all have the same amount of health. It's just that the gravity system makes you fall faster, so Taka technically takes less damage from combos. But a throw is a throw, so losing 100 health to Wolf's Burning Hammer is equally devastating for all characters.
Oh, and before I forget, when Vanessa puts you into the Takedown stance (where she gets on top of you), it's a santaku situation where you have to input a 4, 5, or 6 break to get free.

Eternal Champions had traps and stuff that could damage you

>>555919184
Tekken 4 experimented with stage gimmick and noticed quickly that they don't work. Then, instead of giving up, they kept iterating on it until landing on something that actually works. You can easily have different stages in 2D fighters, Toukon for example is doing it with some stages having several wallbreaks and some having none.

I'm watching Tekken 8 and it's a complete mess
Not only is there the super heat meter and the rage meter, but now a bunch of characters have their own unique resource as well? I saw that match between the Bryan player and the Eddy player and they both have some little counter they get to keep track of? What is this, blazblue but 3d?

What's even better is that they saw how fucking terrible and dysfunctional Manon's medal system was in SF6 and decided to add their own copy to the game, so not only do characters have their own anime resources, some of them persist over rounds.
>>
>>555920381
They did give up. None of the stage unique features of T4 made it into future games they just used the most basic Virtua Fighter 3 walls from that point on.
The new tagslop fighter is just recycling a garbage gimmick from the soive engine and nobody will enjoy it for that aspect.

My point was that the ring out is the only way to win in Smash brothers. It's not an alternate win condition. In the 3D games you're mentioning, it's an alternate condition that's not even on every stage. A bunch of stages in Soulcalibur don't even have a place you can knock somebody out of.
You know how an f-zero you can win by either killing most competitors on the track or by just crossing the finish line? I honestly think people would consider smash more of a traditional game if you could care with just any hit, but since you need a specific type of hit to score a ring out, that's probably why the distinction is so pronounced.
For the record, I'm not saying that smash is a bad game, just that it has a very different goal than traditional fighting games.
>>555921316
This is something that I really dislike about how smash is played, now that you mention it. It seems to have the exact opposite philosophy of how fighting games are typically played where there's the danger of the clock on you. I understand why they use the clock the way they do, but it just feels ridiculous and kind of slow since the only way to win is the single wind condition of the ring out effectively. Time out is so rare, it might as well not even exist.
This would be like if there was an RTS where the only way you could win was by fulfilling some specific map objective and that things like routing the enemy army, destroying their base, or just having more resources at the end couldn't happen because every match has a 2-hour timer on it.

I guess from that perspective, smash is more like a subgenre in the same way that anime or 3D games are.

Is the average western indie platform fighter better than the average western indie fighting game?
Most fighting game players won't even pretend to care about Them's Fightin' Herds, but Smash players seem to have started begrudgingly accept Rivals of Aether.

It just sounds like he is unable to separate his own personal experience of playing old fighters from the actual gameplay of old fighters. What they actually mean when they say 'character expression' is that back in the old days fighters were so small and niche that even the best players often played unoptimally because there was so much less competition and information sharing was far more limited. You can see this whenever an old fighter is played on a modern large stage: MvC3 at EVO few years back was nothing but ZeroMayCry mirrors and the same ToD combo over and over. Same happens with other old fighters if the prize money and the stage grow large enough to attract serious amount of competition. Character expression was never real, fighters weren't just taken seriously as a competitive sport so more unoptimal strategies could prosper.

smash clones try to copy smash too much which is obviously their goal but that also kinda makes them pointless because smash exists.
at most it gives them a potential out in the future when nintendo overreaches further.
most western indie game developers try to create these weird hybrid abominations that end up appealing to nobody. everything needs parry but also tag but also epic combo loops but also easy inputs but also 300hit blockstrings.
and in thems fightin herds case the brony stigma obviously hurt the game. skullgirls was at least somewhat alive for some time.
generally speaking its hard to reach that critical mass required for good matchmaking. indie fighters have that big downside of not being tied to an established franchise with limited advertisement potential.

I guess he's not a shill, he just annoys me to no end with his MvC2 worship. Actually, I just did some light e-stalking and it turns out he may have legit played it back in the day, I just assumed he was blindly gassing it up like Dood with 3S
>>
>>
>>555927498
Regarding the second part, I think I get what he means. That was mostly the result of developers not caring much about the balance instead of just having something cool. Mostly because competition back then was just for a certificate or some free arcade credits.
But now since people are playing for actual money and potential livable wages, they have to be way more careful designing games. So you won't see a character based around one busted glitch move ever again in a game made to be an esport.

Why are American fighting game players significantly more mentally ill than the ones from other regions?
Why do Americans need like 4 medications to be normal and not go on a killing spree?
>>
>>
>>555938628
Because Americans in general are more mentally ill than other regions, due to poor mental healthcare (shutting down all the asylums in the 80s) and awful nutrition that contains so many different things to permanently fuck your brain due to lack of regulation in the food industry. The Jewish propaganda machine doesn't really help either.

Baron literally did all of this and you guys still complained. His entire game is nothing but whores with big tits in micro bikinis doing one button throws on each other and being forced to defend against guard crush and stun and he said that he would never add a modern simple controls mode.
And then you subhumans told him to cover up all the girls, shrink the boobs, get rid of the motion controls entirely, and to just make 2xko basically.
This is why none of you are rich or investors. You don't understand what actually gets people playing video games. Nobody is going to care about your game being easy to play with no motions if they have to play as some giant Hawaiian woman that looks like the Rock in the wig. They want to play a sexy girl in a slingshot bikini with her big juicy ghetto booty hanging out and will learn how to do a quarter circle forward if that's what it takes to make her boobs jiggle.

Epstein didn't say that, it was Bobby Kotick the Blizzard guy. Epstein asked him about educational games and he basically said those are stupid because young boys are motivated to learn by hot girls and cool stuff and the moment they realize they're trying to be taught something they get bored so it's better to just go all in on the aforementioned content.

Nobody ever said that stun was universally bad. It works differently in every game and is implemented better in some than others. I have more confidence in certain people implementing it in their game than others. But in general, it should not be in there because most people are bad at implementing it. So basically, just don't have it.

Yes, and I was going to add that moot hated it and killed it for a reason, and also obviously showed discontent with making /pol/ but I felt it was superfluous information. The older board was dead years iirc but people bitched and yelled at him and he caved because muh free speech.

Dreamcancel has a lot of good info on how to play KOFXV, specific routes, etc. But really, even the in game trials help you get started with what characters can do on a basic level.
I have a feeling that the game is significantly popular on consoles, which is why it's relatively fast to get a match even if the steam numbers don't look super high.

You can play tekken 3 online, there is whole community around it, not "big" but alive and well. Go to youtube, watch "recent" matches and ask.
Doa 5 and 6 are FREE. No I mean, 4 characters free, ranked and training mode in steam. Check it out. My favorite is 4 btw. And it is a amazing game. Ask more information in discord. You'll fine lots of players.
VF5 is fine is you live in EEUU and Japan in Europe you'll keep matching the very same guys.

First you said Riot was giving up on the game and le empty chairs meant 5000 people DQ'd from the tournament and the game was dying, but now suddenly every player in the venue is a paid Riot shill who is secretly manipulating the tournament to drown out every other game and make you download 2XKO.
Can you schizophrenic thugs please make up y'alls minds???

I could see that being an issue. I remembered the game said I was using some kind of cheating script I had never even heard of before, so I loaded up and apparently it was really it to me using a keyboard remapper one time six years ago for a game that didn't let you remap wasd for movement.
But yeah, the anti-cheat seems a bit aggressive in some ways.
Anyway, I actually have a lot to say about our matches before I go, so I'll write that up in a second.

You were a lot better at using the quick getup. I think against Vanessa specifically, it's sometimes better to do the back roll getup so you can avoid her meaty attacks, mess up her setups, etc.
You seem to have a bit of trouble dealing with 2P. Some characters have an easy way to deal with it like Vanessa having OS 9P to just go over it. I'm not entirely sure what Pai does specifically to deal with it, such as a specific low crush, but in general, you're +5 after you guard a 2P. Even if it hits, they generally can't get much off of it, so it's best to guard one, then punish it with a fast mid like your 6P.
Whenever you block a big launch like Vanessa's OS 9K, you can get a big punish. Specifically, that move (HAWK Strike) is -15 on guard, so you get a guaranteed small combo from just pressing 5K. Something like 5K > P > 3KPP. Or at least, I got that one from VFDC.
Speaking of combos, I can tell you've definitely been practicing those. You get a lot more damage per hit now. When we fought on the Eileen stage, you could have gotten a KO after that one wall splat in just a single combo probably instead of having to even bother with a wakeup read.
I can tell you’re working on your stagger recovery, but I will say it’s important to remember what moves cause a stagger to begin with. Or else certain “fake” wall combos can lead into big damage.
Your use of corner carry is getting better now, too as you made good use of ringouts on the Taka stage.
It’s worth noting that like Jacky, Vanessa can Autoparry high punches. That’s why I would just sit still sometimes. As long as she’s in defensive stance and not moving, she will grab the high and get a free hit and frame advantage. It’s a hard yomi option, but if I think the opponent will do a lot of jabs (which players that use 11f characters tend to do), I opt for that. Against 12f jab characters, I tend to use offensive stance far more.

Speaking of which, I feel like that is probably one of the main reasons you struggle against me. Vanessa just has a lot of moves and rapidly forces you to remember two entirely different sets of frame data. With the Defensive Style where she’s standing up straighter, she has less big launches, but more Sabaki moves that can get around things. That’s why I keep using DS 46KP since it’s a useful sabaki or why I use 1P so much to just got throw attacks.
With Offensive style where she’s crouching down more, she gets a lot of devastating strings and access to the deadly Takedown stance. It’s the more aggressive one and has a lot of staggers that I like to abuse, so I would argue it’s even more dangerous than DS in some ways. Even worse, she can swap between them pretty quickly, like with 6P+K+G or with 44K+G > 2, which work in both stances. So it’s a thing you have to look out for so you know what set of data to prepare for dealing with.
I feel like Vanessa breaks the rules of the game in some ways with things like her various strings that go through things, moves that set up combo throws, and just various gimmicks that feel fake but somehow work if you condition the opponent. She’s pretty uncommon, too, so it’s a huge burden of knowledge to have to deal with all at once.
You made good use of your parries to get out of bad situations. This is why I say it really pays to study, as some moves look like mids that are actually highs and vice versa, so sometimes a parry you think may work will not.
>>

A very important skill in Virtua Fighter is stage control. I guess that to an extent, that exists in every fighting game, but I feel like it’s really important in VF because the stages work differently, have different sizes, some let you break the walls, some don’t have walls at all, etc. As you saw earlier, even if you’re hitting the opponent off the stage and have them floating, if you walk out of the stage while striking, you lose the round immediately. So always be careful near edge. A lot of times, it’s best to just get your launch, then stand still since there’s no Directional Influence, unlike how Soulcalibur handles it.
I like how you figured out that OS K+G was a move that you can just hit her out of the startup with. I feel like that move is probably far better online than offline. It has full tracking, good range, plus frames, and leaves the opponent side turned on hit. But it can be ducked and punished or you can just get a big CH if you hear her yelling out “Take… that!”
You were also good at catching side steps, playing less linearly. That’s another important skill since some players become very reliant on sidestepping and then punishing autopiloted strings. I’ll admit I have this problem, still, so it’s good you stopped me from doing it so much. You were also good at catching backdash. I suppose that Pai has useful multi-purpose tools that work for both of those things. Vanessa, I feel like she’s not exactly as versatile, which is the downside to having so many moves. Lots of moves for any situation, but you don’t have access to half of them at any given time. For example, she has a great 66K+G for catching backdashes (it’s that big kick I do all the time from range.) But it’s linear. And then she has the 66K sweeping kick that hits on both sides, but with a bit less range. Still good, but not as good for backdash catching, more for sidestep catching.
>>555971628
>>
>>
>>
Meanwhile, in Offensive Style, she doesn’t really have fast tracking moves that hit both sides, usually just left or right.
The arm bar attack (DS 6K counter hit > P+G) works just like Takedown. Where it’s another 4/5/6 P+G throw break situation. I had forgotten the timing, which is why I kept missing it. I have to delay the P+G input for it to come out properly. But yeah, it only works on counter hit, so that’s another example of why overly enthusiastic abare can be dangerous.
If you ever get side turned and opponent attempts to throw you, believe it or not, that’s an easy one to break. Characters only have one side throw, so you can just throw break in the direction of the side that your opponent is on and it will always work. Which is why I think it only ever really works at higher levels if they’re not expecting a side throw.
Your movement is not bad, but it’s something I think you need to be careful with. When I began playing, I walked a lot more. You don’t have that problem, probably because you know how to move already from BlazBlue, but I mean that you sometimes try to do sidesteps or backdashes eagerly when at range, which is obviously not bad on paper for avoiding moves, but remember that VF has movement counters. That’s why I got that really high launch on you when you were just walking and presumably not pressing a button.
With that said, I think you are better with more conservative use of abare now. You don’t hit buttons as much when at disadvantage, so when you actually do it, I’m not expecting it as much and I don’t go for as many telegraphed counter hit setups. I’m thinking about throws a lot more.

Speaking of which, you actually had pretty good use of throw breaks by the end. Remember, the defender is +5 after teching a throw, so you can go for things that would usually be risky. Good throw breaking is another thing that just takes time (I’m still not really adept at it even when trying to use the various option selects involved). Having to memorize all these different throw animations and what their break input is. Heaven’s Gate (DS 63214P+G, that throw where she grabs you, gets behind you, lays you down, then breaks your neck), is a 4 Break, as you can see from the input. It’s Vanessa’s most damaging single throw. So it’s a pretty safe bet that I’m going to use a 4 break throw when in DS. Of course, her other ones are only slightly less good, so it’s not a guaranteed thing, I suppose.
You were good at breaking the takedown throws, too. It’s a pure guess, but 6P+G does the most damage, so I usually go for that one. Of course, the position she recovers in also varies, so that can be a factor, especially at the wall. For example, the 5P+G throw, V1 Armlock, makes her recover to the right of the opponent. So if there’s a ringout zone to the right, you know to not even think about breaking that one unless you’re in KO health range, because you’ll win regardless if a Vanessa does it there. She’ll just walk out even if it hits and then lose the round automatically.
I think you actually need to be using your throws a little more. They’re fairly easy to set up once you condition people to guard your strings. A technique I like to use is to stop a string halfway through and go for a throw since the opponent is probably expecting the rest of the string. That’s why I often used DS 6P > K > dash up 63214P+G. The opponent is expecting an unsafe K followup and guarding to stop it. So the throw is reactable if you’re looking, but some people don’t even consider it if they’re focused on the potential delayed string followup.

But yes, to summarize, I think you’re doing a lot better now. VF is a huge mountain of knowledge, so you can have good combos and good offense but still struggle. You’ll get there if you just keep going and actively studying what you don’t understand. I remember VF5 Final Showdown had a built in frame data tool on replays, don’t know if they ever added that to this new version, as it wasn’t in Ultimate Showdown on PS4. I used that tool a lot back in the PS3 days to understand things more. Or another thing I would do is watch Kruza’s YouTube channel because he uploaded replays with the frame data turned on. Granted, he’s primarily a Vanessa player (I don't think he's considered one of the best western Vanessa players either, that is probably Hotsauce Nelly) and these videos are outdated now since they’re for FS, not REVO, so not sure how useful that would be to you. Though he has played against Pai players before on his videos as well.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShLTK_HDzdg
I’ve seen some Japanese players do that, too, but I don’t know specifically of a Pai player that uploads high level footage with frame data turned on. But I feel like if you could find that, that would be a really useful tool.
But anyway, I have to go and work on some stuff now, so perhaps we will play more later this week.

This is basically the same principle at play here.
He is simply trying to worm his way back in here so that he can get free beta testers for when the thing comes out, do a location test or you can gather data on all of us in our locations, and then not even give us credit. Or just to ask for his game so he can get more sales.

Basically, if you ever see any really bad looking art produced and posted to the internet without shame, you know a leftard made it because leftists make the worst and most disturbing art imaginable since they never progressed past the childhood level of mental development.

I still posted morrigan for years after that. If you want I could go back to that. I just changed it up because I post a lot more from my phone now and I don't have every single morrigan and llilith pic on my phone like I do on my PC. I'll just have to get around to transferring them all to my phone.

You avoid us for a year, worried some of us to death, refused to apologize, then just show up out of nowhere like nothing happened? And all you have to say is "Vanessa can be defeated with strong punishment and while standing attacks?"
Explain yourself immediately, baron!

had it been any other fighting game you would agree but since it's riot and everyone in the fgc are poor and money hungry they will excuse them and throw the most solid 4th place entrances game for the last few years under the bus.

it has always been there, anime fighters has always been third class citizens in the west, Strive just ended up becoming too big to ignore and even then people dismiss it and try and claim MK is actually the third pillar in the modern FGC competitive scene. all riot did is expose it even more with the temptation of riot buxs.

It's funnier that grubbas only defense for the side game not being main stage is schizo tier spazzing about shills and vappa lines, no wonder the resident Timmy latched on

How does that prove anything at all? /news/fags were destroying the rest of the site for weeks with off topic racewar larps (and most boards never fully recovered from that, like /v/, /sci/ and /int/).
Are we gonna say /mlp/ was made not to contain these retards but because da joos wanted it?

These niggas love talking about 2xko dev team as if they're separate from riot when you bring up the sexual assault (most of these bums shit on cotw for having rapenaldo in it) but when someone says they don't want riot buying their way into the fgc then now all of a sudden the cannons are riot and have always been apart of the culture.

I personally view granblue as an affront to the genre and anything that contributes to its death and removal from evos mainstage is a + in my book. a turd that stank getting as many main stages as it has is the greatest criticism of the post plandemic fg releases

Why didn't you autistic Tylenol babies just send your gay boyfriend a dm on Twitter or something? You guys are so pathetic, you must have a 2 inch baby beta manlet dick cuz you act like you're a little queer homosexual boy with no nuts at all. Be a man for once and just say things out loud when you want to say them. Don't be a little fag.
Pretend you have a nutsack.
