Canon All For One behavior

[violet adder]

W

[hazy ice]

Ngl he's gonna own us

[open inlet]

Nah

Our gamma beats his gamma and his alpha, we sa his mobility

His beta is the only thing that might be a problem

But I’m gonna assume it’s not gonna stop gamma either since it doesn’t look like a full grab like Aizawa and shinso

[hazy ice]

👀👀👀

[wet loom]

I think it is a full grab Young For One does the struggle animation like he was grabbed by one of those two

[open inlet]

Yeah might be cooked then

Just gotta stay far away I suppose

Or melee it out

[fringe axle]

I hope his drones are destructible

Would be pretty dumb if you can't destroy them

Like when Young For One melees him

Can't watch the video for some reason

That might work

[open inlet]

I can watch it

The stagger shouldn’t be too bad on gp at least

[wet loom]

I sure hope it isn't

[native dirge]

I'm rolling for him since shigaraki isn't his own character and looks 💩

[fringe axle]

Shiggy is my guy

I'll skip All Might

[ashen mural]

Yafo players on their way to do advanced movement techs just to do a quarter of the damage of ofa deku

[open inlet]

wdym

it’s not really hard to stack damage with him just by doing his moves in quick succession

But yeah if you were to take max output ofa Deku would be higher because of his melee loops

[ashen mural]

Idk I look at characters based on how hard they are to play and how much value you can get out of it if a character can't get as much damage as another character I cant see him as better

[ashen mural]

You got beat into alpha that's about it

Beta*

[open inlet]

Beta into alpha into sa
Alpha into sa
M1 alpha melee string
gamma alpha

You can kinda just mix and match with anything

[ashen mural]

Do NOT ABBREVIATE SPECIAL ACTION

[open inlet]

And this isn’t talking about when you can trap someone in the charged beta

[open inlet]

not that funny

[ashen mural]

I found it funny

[open inlet]

Everyone says OFA Deku is the best so

Idk who was telling you YAFO was better

[ashen mural]

Cause he is w auto tracking or maybe tech mirio

[azure anchor]

melee alpha melee breaks shield

average blue deku main

[ashen mural]

I just did the math this is a lie dog

[azure anchor]

ggs about your math

[ashen mural]

Melee does 120 max alpha does 70

[ashen mural]

Unless google is lying

Is it?

[azure anchor]

so oblivious

you're not taking into count 1 thing

[ashen mural]

Wsp

[azure anchor]

your math is not mathing

[ashen mural]

Couple things first of all that's max alpha which you're not getting standard

Second you need acceleration

[azure anchor]

its just faster with acceleration

you can do it without

[azure anchor]

ofc when you say 3 alpha breakshield you dont say lvl 1

its understood they are max level

[ashen mural]

When has it ever been understood that its max level

[open inlet]

Yeah Alpha being lvl 9 is pretty fair

No one rates Aizawa combos with his gamma and alpha at lvl 1

[azure anchor]

it always is

😭

[open inlet]

always

[azure anchor]

whenever someone shows a combo, is it not always lvl 9?

[ashen mural]

Not from the youtube videos

[azure anchor]

what... 😭

[ashen mural]

It's usually level 1 or whenever the amount changes

So level on overhaul for example

[azure anchor]

what are you even watching bro

[ashen mural]

4*

[ashen mural]

YouTube videos bro like I said

[azure anchor]

whenever a combo is shown

its always lvl 9

no one shows lvl 4 combos

unless they're in pvp then its harder to lvl up

no one is gonna show you lvl 4 combos in training

[ashen mural]

Guess we just see different things then I like seeing lvl 1 or 4 because most of the time that's what you are gonna be early game

And that's the hardest part of the matchup for me

[azure anchor]

i have never seen someone show any combos without lvl 9 but alr

[ashen mural]

Look man I dont understand why you're so mad about this all I said was what I saw on google

[native dirge]

[final echo]

Gng

Any young afo tuning?

[open inlet]

space hop accele

[past tiger]

Is it worth it to put any tuning slots into gamma (Y) power or should I just stick with beta power

[final echo]

Nice gng any combos?🙇🏾‍♂️

[native dirge]

Melee alpha full melee string.

[violet adder]

Not unless you’re making a build to power up gamma imo

However, I have one that would serve you well

[past tiger]

on the fully shirtless outfit that you can go assault endeavor + 2x gamma power with fixer

[violet adder]

Just wanted to see how strong I could make gamma, and with this build it hits for around 84 a shot at max and the big AOE is a guaranteed guard break. Though this is all considering they don’t have any defense cards or anything

[violet adder]

I’m aware of this, but this also suited another desire of mine: infinite flight

After getting a down you get infinite flight for 20s

Perfect for repositioning to finish with beta and some alphas and to go onto the next fight, down and retreat, lock down some special actions, etc

[past tiger]

the build im going has primary red and purple (fixer)

however i cant go quirk factor release AND gamma power

[native dirge]

You think rocking another gp attack power instead of y attack power would be okay or even running hp attack power

[violet adder]

I just wanted to amp up Gamma as much as possible

Edit it how you wish idc

[native dirge]

I know that just want your opinion on it.

[violet adder]

If you wanted overall damage increase then yeah double Hp would be good

[past tiger]

i like gamma power but in game i barely use it (i get beamed 90% of the time)

[native dirge]

I'm building that fixer build this season just curious on somebody that already built it how it feels

[violet adder]

It feels good

But if you’re used to Space Hop then it’s gonna feel wrong

Like I said, 84 a gamma shot though. Crack a guard in like 3 shots and nearly finish with just the gamma

[native dirge]

Perfect. Building a fixer present mic build this season since got blessed with his outfit rolling for all might. So far crafting an aizawa, present mic, then this yafo build for this season.

[violet adder]

Wish I had Monoma. I like my fixer builds

I have to conserve my data for him

Hoping I get Iron Might on my 20th pull so I can pity for Monoma

[native dirge]

They feel great. And relatable when it comes to tech denki and assdeavor data. Only characters I'm missing

[violet adder]

Ironic

I have those two

One has what the other desires, and yet we cannot share. What a cruel situation

[native dirge]

I'd trade you if they allowed it. Those normal tunes are so goated

[violet adder]

Ngl Assault Endeavor’s base tuning gotta be one of the best in the game

A yellow slot that gives damage increase is crazy

[native dirge]

Especially considering how much they love adding yellow as a tuning slot.

[native dirge]

Peak banter!

Literally wearing a hobo garb and decides to talk about fits 😭

[wet loom]

The hobo garb is fire to be fair

[left charm]

Whats the best build for yafo without spacehop?

[native dirge]

Mandatory. Game won't even let you ready up without it and if somehow you do it'll swap your character to one of your favorite mark characters.

I now crave a suit for yafo

[violet adder]

Space Hop is highly recommended for him, however it’s not impossible to play him without it

In fact I play him without Space Hop sometimes because I like a change of pace

[fringe axle]

I need to make a build for him

Luckily I got Assault Ochaco from the roll picks last season

[native dirge]

I'm afraid when I run the fixer build I'm gonna keep some bad habits that space hop let me get away with. Space hop is just perfect on him. But the idea of trying out permeation gamma and buffing gamma sounds fun.

[hearty mural]

You plan to run the fixer y build?

It’s not good

Most people know how to fight is gamma nowadays

[native dirge]

We shall see

[hearty mural]

I used it on release I have two yafo builds critical perm is better if you want a gamma focused build

[ornate plaza]

I just got him. Best tuning? best level order? playstyle?

@wet loom 😇😇

[ancient flint]

after my continued playing of this character, i think hes my favorite character in the entire game

[hearty mural]

Old AFO more fun in my opinion after the buff especially

[ancient flint]

this character just clicks with me

like it felt like they made him just for me for my preference of character

i would send a 60k points results screen screenshot here but i have a skin mod

he just clicks and i love him

[wet loom]

His play style is definitely more of one where you want to control the skies. Get high ground, rain down alphas and betas, use gamma to punish people with low mobility who get close to you.

Alpha - A high range attack that pierces through opponents and does an extra hit of damage at max range or when it touches a surface. Should be used from above if possible so you can aim down at grounded opponents and get both hits of the alpha

Beta -

Tap: A long range attack with some start-up that does good damage and can combo into alpha and Special Action when hit. Use this as a prediction tool as the start-up can be easily dodged. Can also be used to hit enemies in the air but this should only be done if you match their height and can predict their next move

Hold: Big AOE attack that can be used to protect you and your teammates inside buildings if you're getting pushed or be used to buy a few seconds by scaring off close-range characters with massive AOE damage. Not used as much as the tap beta but it has its uses in both team fights and defensive play as a massive AOE attack

Gamma - This move puts you in a somewhat slow free flight that you can cancel out of at any time by pressing the dodge roll input

Before explosion: You get much appreciated armor which lowers your damage and down power taken. You can still be grabbed in this state which will cancel gamma. Tapping gamma shoots out a decently sized orb that staggers on GP and hard knock downs on HP. This move should not be used if you're fighting someone like regular Deku or another Young All For One as these characters can easily back up and projectile spam you safely. A good character to use this on would be someone like Nejire who is usually in the air and have a very hard time dodging the projectiles that get shot out.

After explosion: Massive high damage move that goes through walls. Don't force yourself to use this attack every time you gamma sometimes it's better to give up the damage to run/reposition

I'm not done yet I just ran out of characters

[ancient flint]

i personally love alpha into melee

quick 200 burst damage if you position it well

[ornate plaza]

Tysm for taking the time to write so much for me!

So for characters like snipers, what do i do?? Back up? or try to punish with beta?

Also there's a special action movement tech, what is it?

[ancient flint]

theres a whole buncha stuff

special action flight, alpha, special actuion but you press the button

sorry if im interupting the massive writing thingy thats being cooked up lol

[wet loom]

Special Action -

Flight: A somewhat slow flight that starts with a big burst of speed. Activated by dashing in the air. It's nothing crazy it's just a slower Endeavor/Hawks flight if you wanna think about it like that. You can quickly use alpha and Phantom Strike during it to preserve momentum and end the flight

Phantom Strike: Used by tapping Special Action and it seals another character's Special Action on hit. If you miss it takes away less charge than if it hits. This attack can also pierce through walls. Mainly used for sealing the Special Actions of characters who rely on them heavily like Endeavor, Hawks, and Mt. Lady for example.

For level order I suggest this:

Beta level 4 for the increase in size so it's easier to hit
Alpha 9 since it does a lot of damage once you have high ground and getting both hits of it off
Beta 9 for another size increase
Gamma 9

Gamma is last because it's more of a tool to push people back than it is one you should be using for damage because people MUST respect you in gamma unless they want to eat 200+ damage (or they have a grab)

His melees are actually really solid. Air melee pushes him back a bit which gives him some extra height and distance if you need that little push and it has a small AOE. His ground one has INSANE range and tracking

For tuning Space Hop and Acceleration are very very good. Space Hop lets him get high ground on command and Acceleration increases his attack speed for even faster alphas and betas and it increases his flight speed. Melees are not a big problem for him to land so you shouldn't have too much trouble proccing Acceleration

[ancient flint]

i personally run the double purple fit

special action reload boost and high speed replenishment

[wet loom]

Melee 1 -> alpha -> melee 1 -> melee 2

[ancient flint]

(i know crit perm is better i just refuse to use it)

[ancient flint]

o thank you!

[wet loom]

Same I hate how cheap Critical Permeation is

I'm gonna tell people to use it because it's good but I'm not gonna use it

[ancient flint]

high speed replenish is really good on him as well imo

fly away and then get sheilds back up really fast

especially after a down using special action reload boost

[wet loom]

Which long range characters do you have in mind?

[wet loom]

It's good on everyone

[ancient flint]

imo any grabber is his biggest counter

bc it just gets you out of gamma

which is annoying

[wet loom]

Yeah grabs mess him up because they get rid of his get off me tool

[ancient flint]

(and that unfortuntately means that iron might can just get you out of gamma)

[wet loom]

Well, his main one

He still has hold beta

[ancient flint]

ye

and press special action depending on the character

[wet loom]

Oh trust me I know he can (I've playing him for like 8 hours straight not including my 10+ hours of labbing him)

[ancient flint]

bc if you need to run just cripple the movement special action and they cant chase as easily

[ancient flint]

bruhh

[wet loom]

He's a fun guy

[ancient flint]

i like yafo more plus im saving for next season

so i didnt get iron might

[wet loom]

Fair

[ancient flint]

(idk if im allowed to say anything about the leaks in this server but just know i specifically love the character next season)

[wet loom]

I don't have opinions on them

They've been on screen for like 30 minutes max

[ancient flint]

i know, but like they have 1 of my favorite quirks tbh

even if it has little screen time

its just cool

[wet loom]

True sniper arm is sick

[ancient flint]

oh yeah this is the yafo channel mb 😭

[wet loom]

It's alright no worries you should see the Ibara channel

We yap in there for real

[ancient flint]

lol, i dont play ibara so im not in that channel

[ornate plaza]

if i use gamma cancel does my gamma go away completely? or how does using gamma work. Percentage or are there charges?

i'm very shocked tha no g9.

[ornate plaza]

yellow deku armored might maybe

[ancient flint]

it depletes a bit and you have to get it back to 100% iirc

[ornate plaza]

so tuning its space hop. wall runner is my fav so wall runner

[ancient flint]

it doenst go to 0 tho

i know that for sure

[ornate plaza]

but guys i'm scared i see lots of afo's that just flop and i don't wanna flop. what's my stra tho. do i act as a tank or just be an annoying fly spamming alpha and beta?

when do i use gamma btw

[wet loom]

Yeah like yurimaster said it's percentage based so it leaves off where you cancelled and then you have to get it back to 100% to use it again

[ancient flint]

i use it on single targets personally

bc the orbs do alot knock down

or i hide and use it in a large group in a smaller circle

[ancient flint]

i found a way

[ornate plaza]

Tysm

[wet loom]

Armored Might isn't long range I'd say but Assault Deku assuming you aren't already on high ground get high ground this is true for every encounter. Now assuming you can't get high ground for whatever reason alpha strafing is important to know on him like it is for Assault Deku and melee can be used to catch wake ups and rolls. Tap beta can also be used to catch wake ups and rolls. For an even longer range character like Tech Denki assuming he has distance on you just back up behind cover because he's gonna pelt you with alphas otherwise. If you can find a way to get closer to him again get high ground but if you can't you can use hold beta on yourself to force him to back up so he can't do his beta into alpha shenanigans and while he's running pelt him with alphas and gamma

[ornate plaza]

so 1v1's? but like when. to camp wakeups? or to enter fights. cuz i feel like if i enter the fight and miss my orbs they can just snipe me down

[wet loom]

General advice for fighting longer range targets while playing as him though is find cover and then find high ground to attack them from

[ancient flint]

its extremely good on 1v1s if you are good at wakeup predicting

[ornate plaza]

Umm what i understood like nothing 😳

[ancient flint]

you just like get really close and wait out they i frames to knock em

and then they just get to take a 200 damage aoe attack if you do it right

on top of a buncha orbs

[ornate plaza]

I'll watch gameplay to see how people utilize space hop too

[wet loom]

You can just read this it's the TLDR #1430479042326433864 message

The block of text above it is match up advice against two longer range fighters

[ornate plaza]

but guys do i open fights with alpha spam in the air? and if i miss i do beta?

[wet loom]

Alpha is your main damage, beta is used to predict, and gamma is your get off me tool along with hold beta

[ancient flint]

it depends on the situation but if im in the air i open with beta

if im grounded i go for melee into alpha

this is just me tho

[wet loom]

If the enemy is in the air you can try beta so you can combo into alpha

And yeah on the ground his melee is good

[ornate plaza]

is beta alpha true combo?

[ancient flint]

yes iirc

it always works for me so ia assume so?

[ancient flint]

i gotta write this down somewhere so i remember

[wet loom]

If done fast enough

[ancient flint]

WAIT I JUST REALIZED HOW DO YOU PLAY THIS MANY CHARACTERS 😭

I CAN BARELY PLAY 2 AND TOGAS THERE JUST BC I LOVE TOGA EVEN THO IM BAD

[wet loom]

Oh I'm not particularly good with any of them I just always do that in every game. I have mains but I always play a lot of the characters in the roster

Jack of all trades master of none kind of deal

[ancient flint]

i've only been playing yafo and mirio recently

[wet loom]

Rapid Mirio is really fun

[ancient flint]

yeah

tech mirio is a FRUAD

hate him

[ornate plaza]

also abt lvl order, in theory what about b4 a4 b9 a9 g9 instead of b4 a9 b9 g9. whats the diff in playstyles

[wet loom]

🤝

[ornate plaza]

i saw that a while ago and i was like omd..

[ancient flint]

oh my level order is way different than you i just realized

i go B9 Y9 A9 even though i really shouldnt be

[ornate plaza]

why gamma? do u use it often? more than alpha?

[ancient flint]

i just like bullying people

thats all

[native dirge]

I like b9 a9 y9

[ancient flint]

i really do not need to be power leveling my gamma, i just feel like if you play the demon lord you are legally required to bully people

[ornate plaza]

do u not use alpha that much?

[ancient flint]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1430479042326433864/1441587769477431357/makesweet-hqebxf.gif

[ancient flint]

you do its just beta is really good

[native dirge]

Getting beta range is more of a priority for me. I can clap people just fine with a lower level alpha till then.

[ornate plaza]

But for the special action tech, if i wanna get a short burst of speed should i just do special action dash then instantly press it again then spam alpha?

[ancient flint]

ye this guys on my wavelength

[ornate plaza]

I'm scared to leave alpha at lvl 4 so i might try b4 a4 b9 a9 g9. i'll try b9 a9 g9 one day

[native dirge]

You could even do a4 b9

[ancient flint]

yeah

i am just confident enough to power level beta 1st

[native dirge]

Me too. That lvl 9 beta is too good to pass up. Alpha is pretty good still at lvl 1.

[ancient flint]

yeah its 80 if you connect the 2nd hit so yeah

[wet loom]

If you can predict really well or you want to be more threatening with your hold beta it could work. I prefer alpha damage though personally it's more consistent

[ancient flint]

im gonna try and change my level route this match

im gonna go B9 A9 Y9

bc why not

[native dirge]

I want to get a clip with the meme gamma fixer build like this.

[ancient flint]

peak clip

hold on allow me to share my dumb build

i love me double purple

and i dont have the rewind fit

[native dirge]

Will have this build next license lvl up

Just gotta max the villian special tune

[ornate plaza]

Guys if u level gamma up, does only the size of the ending blast get bigger or also the orbs u shoot out?

and does hold beta go through walls

@wet loom sorry for so many pings

[ornate plaza]

combo i found

[ornate plaza]

it's actually very good. My first match on him i go so much damage like 5k. he's so fun!! imagine him with tunin. i don't have a costume

[open inlet]

Yeah we know

I’m afraid this was discovered day 1

[ornate plaza]

Oh

💀

[wet loom]

I could be wrong but I think it’s also shot out orbs

Tap beta does not but hold does slightly depending on where in a building you use it. If you use it on the first floor it’ll hit the first floor and go through the rest of it but if you’re on like the third floor of a building it’ll stop on the third floor. Again, could be wrong but that’s what I remember

[ornate plaza]

second game as him!!

[ornate plaza]

oh ok. Tap beta does!! crazy

[wet loom]

I’d prefer to be pinged if people have questions don’t worry about it

[ornate plaza]

Also i barely use alpha on this guy

So imma do b9 a4 g9 a9

He's so fun!!

[wet loom]

I don’t remember tap beta going through any walls

[wet loom]

You should use that more on him

[ornate plaza]

Ohhh it doesn't nvm

[ornate plaza]

but why when i can just use beta combos

[wet loom]

Beta cooldown long and against certain enemies it’s hard to predict their movements

Plus you can use alpha while flying to get fly by shots which admittedly isn’t as important

But even if you do a lot of beta combos are you comboing into alpha or gamma?

[open inlet]

ngl I might start fully maxing beta first idk

cooldown is kinda short at lvl 9

[ornate plaza]

alpha. How do u combo into gamma??

[open inlet]

gamma into alpha

[ornate plaza]

i mainly go for this beta combo. i hit it like 20% of the time in matches

[ornate plaza]

but beta into gamma i mean

[open inlet]

i know

[open inlet]

not aware of that being a combo

[ornate plaza]

idk i'm waiting for @wet loom 's response

[open inlet]

oh I guess it is possible

[wet loom]

Is it? I thought gamma start up would be too laggy

Oh I guess you can do that

[open inlet]

might be a lobby thing idk try it out in training mode

[wet loom]

I'd have to later

But even if you can you're getting only one more damage from alpha without the explosion

Alpha without the explosion is 68 and gamma orb is 69

I'd rather just do alpha for the explosion damage unless you're specifically trying to stall someone from using a move because then you could gamma knockdown loop

[open inlet]

idiot rapidkus

must. melee. no. matter. what.

[wet loom]

I'm surprised people haven't learned to run away from big scary orb of darkness and destruction

[ornate plaza]

how do i fly and alpha??? itt just stops me

[wet loom]

Like you're holding forward with it and using alpha?

[ornate plaza]

i mean when i turn it just stops

[open inlet]

you probably just ran out of gauge

works fine for me

[wet loom]

Listening to based Dan Da Dan opening

[wet loom]

But yeah it might just be you running out of the gauge do you have a clip?

[ornate plaza]

do i turn with the camera or my movement buttons

[ornate plaza]

No i don't have a clip ill
try later

LOOK AT THESE CLIPS AM I GOATEDDDD

[violet adder]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAA-

[violet adder]

Whassup

[ornate plaza]

Rate that clip

[violet adder]

I mean what do you want me to say?

Like good aim

[ornate plaza]

I just want attention 😭😭😭

lol

Na i just wanted to show it

[violet adder]

I’m messing with you

Pretty good stuff

[ornate plaza]

Thanks 🙏

[ornate plaza]

random question, what's ur level order on him?

[dense minnow]

We all do

[violet adder]

With YFO?

[ornate plaza]

rn i'm doing b9 a4 g9 a9. But since i do beta alpha combos a lot i might do b9 a4 g4 a9 g9. Or should i just do b9 a9 g9

i'm scared to leave gamma at lvl 4. i think the size can help quite a bit

[violet adder]

I go 4 everything then depending on the build I’m using I go B9, A9, G9, or G9, B9, A9

I got 2 different builds for YFO, one is Space Hop & Acceleration and the other is Fixer & SRB

[open inlet]

yeah i like it more than the first

also epic tag team

[wet loom]

Same

[wet loom]

Holy RIP on that Shinso

[ornate plaza]

i could do this but i feel like i use beta WAY too much.

I think b9 a4 g4 a9 g9 is a good level order that i should try

[ornate plaza]

Best characters to run young afo's tuning?

[open inlet]

I mean pretty much any character outside of like Monoma or maybe toga

But I think toga could also do well with it too

Kurogiri gets a lot of value out of it

Also using it on armoured allmight and it’s pretty nice for his flight

Momo

[wet loom]

Yeah Quirk Factor Release is just good

[ornate plaza]

does it work for monoma's special action??

[ornate plaza]

Ohhh momo can be good for cannons

[open inlet]

It affects SpA’s yes but he doesn’t need it imo

[ornate plaza]

Oh ok. How about rapid all might???

[open inlet]

It works for all SpA’s.

[tender inlet]

Overhaul And All for one too

[ornate plaza]

OHHH overhaul so smart! Might do that if i get his new costume

[tender inlet]

Yeah, there’s gonna be a fit where you can use it

I prefer a special action reload on him, but yeah I know it will be really good

[radiant loom]

worth for accel and space hop? or sometin else?

or did the patch nerf it

if its still good, anyone mind linking their setup on the suit?

[hollow flint]

dont have a skin but should I level up a 1* outfit or just run base and what skill order do yall go saw alpha gama beta

[open inlet]

they didnt nerf it no

why would they

[open inlet]

only have one for the wearable fit im afraid

[open inlet]

i mean is better than nothing

b4 a9 b9 or b9 g9 or reversed or a9 b9

whatever you want

[hollow flint]

can do purple/hero yellow or blue/villain purple what are some good ones

[open inlet]

idk you'd probably do it more for just the slight damage boost then any actual tuning but

his best tunings like space hop aren't that great at lvl 3 or 4 cause that only lasts for like a couple of mins

acceleration would be fine but it'll take a while for it to come bacck

[native dirge]

Dangerous rewind. The sacred build.

[wet loom]

Wearable (Heat) is also sacred (it’s the same build just with level 11 Acceleration instead of level 11 Space Hop)

[native dirge]

Truth nuke!

[ancient flint]

I love this guy

[crude shale]

He's very fun

Probably my most played character

I like his strengths and weaknesses

[ancient flint]

Same

Im still learning to play around weaknesses

[hearty mural]

How much ranked points you get for this

[open inlet]

Don’t remember

[ionic cedar]

Here's another one I found for ya lol

[subtle mason]

Ngl it suits him

[open inlet]

this is why we run acceleration

[wet loom]

The extra momentum conservation from gamma makes him go way further than I thought

[open inlet]

yeah the gamma momentum really changes with it

[violet adder]

Not using the optimal YFO melee combo?

L

I’m messing

[autumn rapids]

His best tuning set by far

[fringe axle]

For some reason I can't watch the video

It's just blank with audio

[open inlet]

im not risking him hitting me with his alpha

😭

[open inlet]

weird

[wet loom]

Unfortunately I don't get into situations where I can melee a lot with him since I'm usually more focused on getting high ground but when I do get Acceleration off it's a drug

[open inlet]

playing him like a sniper sounds kinda boring

I use it when I have opponents coming towards me or I need a escape

[wet loom]

I play more mid-range than at a sniper distance since I like doing beta combos but I always prefer high ground if I can get it

If someone is running at me my first thought isn't usually to melee which it probably should be since this character's melee is stupidly good

[open inlet]

depends on the character

[wet loom]

I suppose so yeah

Wouldn't wanna melee a Kirishima

[silk fog]

Is Rapid Deku's tunning good on him?

[violet adder]

Very

Increases movement speed for his techs and alpha fire rate. Also increases speed of melees

[blissful matrix]

Don't forget increased flight speed to dip

[calm forge]

There's not alot of people playing this character for some reason

[open inlet]

cause he's not as easy as aam and rapidku

and is weaker compared to him

he's still like low s tier though

or high a

[fringe axle]

When a character isn't just point and click

Or has moves with tracking

They aren't going to use them

[violet adder]

I don’t play him as much as I should tbh

I still play him but compared to my other characters he gets the least play time

Less playtime than my Overhaul

But he’s insanely fun

[wet loom]

It’s not that he isn’t fun I just have more fun with combo characters

[fringe axle]

Same

[violet adder]

Same here

[tranquil raft]

Does anyone have a build suggestion for a more tanky yafo. I am currently using space hop and acceleration which I think helps me offensively, but for an assault character I just feel so squishy when I play him plus he gets hella targeted.

[open inlet]

uhh you get def passive as an assault character so you shouldnt feel that squishy

if you get targeted just do this

[open inlet]

.

[tranquil raft]

oh wow thats some pretty insane movement tech

I never thought about combining them

he still feels squishy to me but ill have to try that and see if it helps

[hearty mural]

Whose we

[blissful matrix]

Melee for one

Who needs to gamma

I've gone through matches where i only used gamma for momentum tech 💔

[native dirge]

Nothing gives me more satisfaction than when final zone is on the skirts of typhoon zone and everybody is fighting on the inner part of dome letting me get nasty gamma explosions. It's been consistent when zone is near typhoon for me WEEP AND WAIL!!!

[wet loom]

Melee

[blissful matrix]

Ah yes melee for one

[wet loom]

I do wonder if I was the first to find that melee combo. Probably not but I saw no one talk about it until I sent it here

[open inlet]

its not the truest of combos even with accele but ya

i think im gonna play this character a bit less now till he gets buffed tho

playing armoured all might and guard breaks are so free

with yafo you have to jump through hoops to guard break someone

[blissful matrix]

definitely one of the first

its basically a true combo on most charachters except maybe like mirio with high fps

[wet loom]

I wonder if I was one of the first to discover most of Armored Might's combos as well

[native dirge]

How we doing yafo enjoyers?

[violet adder]

I’m enjoying Tech Shigi a bit more tbh

But I’m still playing YFO

My 3 mains are AFO, YFO, and Shigi For One

[native dirge]

For me this season it's been yfo and Present mic

Once I get my new overhaul builds online I'll be returning to my old original main.

[autumn rapids]

I cycle between overhaul/hawks/kurogiri/mirio atm

Need to pick yafo back up

[hearty mural]

Twin

[dense minnow]

I do the same

Though I also use Strike Dabi sometimes

[dusk mist]

ah yes, if that was me deku would have used overdrive in 0.1 sec

[wet loom]

[wet loom]

Me and my duo when Stain comes out and we’re recreating the anime

[dusk mist]

😭

[hollow ingot]

I NEED AFO TECHS THAT ARE HIDDEN / SECRET

[grand sigil]

Is YAFO a mid character or am I just bad with him

I hear people call him an S tier character, but whenever I play him, it feels like I'm putting in twice the effort to achieve what most characters can do easily

[open inlet]

Yeah he likes low a tier kinda

he’s good but he has to jump through hoops to guard break someone

aam can guard break someone in a single second

and his mobility isn’t that high

But I wouldn’t say he requires more effort than most of the roster

[grand sigil]

I think the main issue for me is his mobility

It feels difficult to chase, and difficult to get away

Which I'd be fine with, but his AoE attacks aren't too good unless it's an open space

My Beta just tickles people for like 15 dmg 90% of the time

[violet adder]

Ngl I’m having more fun with YFO than AFO

Actually able to fight with YFO, meanwhile AFO is getting powercrept my Tech Shigi and everyone playing his counters in response

[open inlet]

You got it backwards

AFO is the S tier character

YAFO is the A tier character

Tech Shiggy is annoying to everyone but you can also steal his quirk or someone else’s to cope with it better

[violet adder]

Except for the fact that I get my booty grabbed by like 3 different people at a time and if I don’t have said quirk, which is usually not until mid game, I just kinda die

Meanwhile YFO I can escape with easily and fight well with even on my own

Perhaps it’s merely our experiences that we have reversed

No one being is the same after all

[open inlet]

Well that’s a positioning issue

some characters are able to cope with that issue better than others

and nah I think it’s agreed by most people AFO is better than YAFO rn

[violet adder]

Alright so I know what I was doing wrong

I was playing with randoms again

[fringe axle]

Yep

YAFO just doesn't feel that strong

He definitely has his moments but gets focused really hard

[hollow ingot]

Which is ehy he needs buff im ok with deku and afo being a lil more op they are main chars

[violet adder]

I’d like a reduced Special Action cost in exchange for Gamma DR

15% DR for free flight and 30% on big AOE

Also some increased movement speed during the flight

[solemn marsh]

nah it’s lowkey his kit

his skill set better be crazy

[subtle mason]

Really? I’ve never heard anyone say so (not that I don’t believe it to be possible)

[open inlet]

why would he not be better

afo has a better alpha

better beta and gamma

and the ability to steal a top tier's quirkset making him more op

with the levels being upgraded alongside your basekit

[violet adder]

Had an idea for a Hyper Regen & Ability Manifest Build

[subtle mason]

idk, to me yafo was miles better but I have no reason besides vibe

He moves better and that's about it

[open inlet]

his alpha hits for about 78 unless they're on the ground to get the additional explosion dmg

his beta is good but afo's is just way too good

[subtle mason]

afo has a good beta for sure

[open inlet]

and also yafo's beta isn't always consistent

[subtle mason]

I guess if you get a good character yeah I can see how afo is strong

[open inlet]

the gamma is just a lot better for getting good combo setups

and a get off me tool

yafo has a good gamma but you can get loaded up on by beamers

cause low knockdown value

hello

@open inlet we awake?

[twilit nova]

Does anyone know how to do the afo flight tech?

[open inlet]

I am once again awake

[open inlet]

which one

[twilit nova]

Mb for not answering

I actually didn’t know there were multiple

[cerulean elm]

did u make it?

[violet adder]

Don’t have to parts atm. Possibly next season

[hollow ingot]

Is there a green and purple tuning outfit

I want to make hyper regenerate x cementos tuning

And use 2 green cards

[cerulean elm]

U got any recommendations tho i’m looking for a built but idk what’s the best one at the moment

[scarlet cedar]

I've been enjoying "Space Hop" and "Acceleration"

[scarlet cedar]

However I am looking into "Revenge Tech/HP Sucker" with "Hyper Regen"

Love "Space Hop" and "Acceleration

[cerulean elm]

Guessing the costume matters right?

I’m just having trouble finding the best one

[scarlet cedar]

this is what i am using

[cerulean elm]

oooo nice

[violet adder]

Unfortunately no

[violet adder]

There’s a couple good ones, but Acceleration & Space Hop seems to be one of the best for someone just wanting a solid YFO build

[hollow ingot]

Dang

[violet adder]

Ye. I thought about that too, but maybe on his next PUR

[hollow ingot]

"On his next PUR" im sure we're not getting that for a very very long time 🥹

[violet adder]

Yep

You could say that again

[azure anchor]

Good to see my tuning getting love 😆

[violet adder]

We’re so cooked

Nagant might as well be the grim reaper

Then again I don’t play YFO as much as the other AFO characters so

[tender inlet]

We can turn off big gun

[scarlet cedar]

Whats your thoughts on Revenge Tech/Hyper Regen ?

[cerulean elm]

this any good?

[violet adder]

YFO can’t run it

[violet adder]

I’d say yeah

[hollow ingot]

Yes u can

I'm pretty sure

I had a build where it was fixer and special action reload up

Thats a villain or hero tuning and a villain tuning

[violet adder]

Oh I thought they said Revenge Support

Nvm yeah he can run that

Wouldn’t recommend Revenge Tech on that build though

Yeah this skin is better for Fixer

Throw on a bunch of gamma damage and it’s a nightmare to fight

[hollow ingot]

Ohhh

[hollow ingot]

Yeah

[hollow ingot]

Its not that good tho in my experience I think his meta build is in acceleration and embrittlement / space hop

[violet adder]

Revenge Tech is kinda eh tbh

[hollow ingot]

Maybe shiggy tuning

[violet adder]

Reason you don’t think it’s that great is because you’re too used to Space Hop

[hollow ingot]

No no its haven't used space hop in a month

[violet adder]

A lot of YFO player are

[hollow ingot]

I use embrittlement

I found out that its good but like im 2 used to acceleration

[violet adder]

On a character designed as a keep away?

[hollow ingot]

Yep

[violet adder]

Regardless if his melee is good or not he’s meant to be played from a distance

Especially in today’s meta

[hollow ingot]

I never play afo at a distance when I do I have fun but I become annoying when i do that I just pick off kills but if u want a specific person dead then melee combo alpha and beta alpha special is your friend with embrittlement

Your melee alpha combo can do 280+ dmg

Free guardbreak

[violet adder]

That’s about the normal amount with that combo anyways

The risk is too much for the reward, because in a 3v3 scenario, which is generally what you should be going for, you’re not gonna have time for a melee

[hollow ingot]

Without embrittlement it does 250

Or less

[hollow ingot]

In that situation i just use normal beta and fly and flying alpha tech for the win

[violet adder]

Exactly

[hollow ingot]

Its more of for a specific person as your build / fixer one and gamma is for all to spread the damage

I prefer killing the lobby one by one

As I feel its more safer than me tanking dmg

[violet adder]

Look, what works for you works, but for me embrittlement is just not it. It’s got lackluster use that is few and far between for how I play YFO

[hollow ingot]

Everyone's playstyle is different but I do reccomend trying it for a while and focus on getting up close and personal i am now trying other playstyles to master those

[violet adder]

I don’t use melee tunes because I play aggressively with my gamma and alpha to rip you apart

And beta to lockdown areas or just get you out of the sky

[hollow ingot]

Yeah thats like the polar opposite lmao I max beta and rarely use the big beta

I'm surprised yafo playstyles can be so diverse

[violet adder]

I’ll just drop a big beta on someone and knock em into it with my gamma cuz yes

Instantly everything is gone

[violet adder]

We’re all different

[hollow ingot]

🙂‍↕️

[violet adder]

All with different playstyles and preferences

[hollow ingot]

I do the same but after my guardbreak melee combo I put a beta down and melee untill it stuns and watch them get hit by the befa

[violet adder]

Silly

YFO is such a silly billy

[hollow ingot]

I agree 🥹

My friend said YAFO is silly billyyy

[ornate plaza]

best tuning for this guy? i wanna do wall runner + space hop

[wet loom]

He benefits from Acceleration much more than Wall Runner

Space Hop is a good pick

[ornate plaza]

oh ok!

ty

[hollow ingot]

#game-feedback

/submit

[ornate plaza]

@wet loom btw when would i use gamma on this guy?

[wet loom]

To fight people like Strike Shiggy who can do nothing to you while you're in the air

[ashen mural]

Almost everyone can fight strike shigi 💔😭

[wet loom]

At this point yeah

[violet adder]

Ball

S

[dense minnow]

[violet adder]

I love fighting these rats

That was my best YFO game in a long time too. Not a Nagant, not an Armored Might, but this annoyance

[open inlet]

ngl playing yafo for the first time in a while i felt kinda sluggish

all these other characters have so much mobility

and the beta locking him in place for so long

[open inlet]

@dull sapphire what was the yafo tech you had going to air stall again

i forgot

[hollow ingot]

Alpha special action melee

U can also do it with special action and melee

But its easier if u throw in the alpha

[south badger]

best game i had with him in this meta

gamma'd at the wrong time, got 3 kos but also got headshotted

[violet adder]

At least it’s not a guaranteed guardbreak with headshot

But even so

200 something damage when you have 30% DR is ridiculous

[azure anchor]

gamma damage should be increased

and the beta should be fixed to hit and not do 60 damage at lvl 9

[ripe phoenix]

i agree

[violet adder]

It Is Almost Time… Time For Some Devastation

[hazy ice]

He'll get a buff next season and become meta

[dense minnow]

Hopefully he’ll get buffed and not nerfed to the ground 💔

[fringe axle]

Yall might call me crazy but

Give him a faster fire rate on in gamma

[open inlet]

Yeah buff his best move

Don’t do anything about his RNG beta or 45% flight

[tender inlet]

He’s fine where he is

Maybe 350 hp

[open inlet]

He’s good but he could be better

The flight should not cost 45% and the beta should not have the chance to do 60 dmg at lvl 9

hp doesn’t really matter to me

That’s never been his biggest issue imo

Unless you’re constantly gamma’ing in teams faces

[fringe axle]

High key I forgot

[proud walrus]

As much as its my agenda to hate on characters to have better flight than hawks or more consistent

I agree

Afos is so sad

[violet adder]

Nah make his Gamma shots stronger

That way I can hit for over 100 with my fixer build

But honestly bro look at this it’s pitiful

My build makes it do level 6 damage at lvl 1 it’s that pathetic

Monoma levels of damage bad

[fringe axle]

Wow the damage scaling is bad

[open inlet]

u do not have enough air time to do both of those things

you literally plummet after the first melee lmao

[open inlet]

Because it does 220 dmg when it fully comes out

if it did 100 and you hit someone twice worst case scenario

then you did the full thing

you just did 440 dmg in like 5 seconds

that would simply be unbalanced

[violet adder]

It would be unbalanced if you made your build completely around gamma

You do have to admit that 69 damage is pathetic

[open inlet]

It is pathetic when you dont have context

and the context is the 220 giant aoe ball at the end

[violet adder]

Let’s add some more context then

Unless you’ve got your opponent pinned down then that AOE is useless

Heck if they hide behind a tree they’re good

And majority of the time you’re not using your gamma for that gargantuan AOE

You’re using it for the spheres

And the spheres are pathetic

[open inlet]

This would happen more often than you think when your kit has area denial in it with the beta

now yes they can hide behind a tree but it's not that common that happens and you can just go up closer

and tbh I don't think I would call 69 damage that pathetic when the gamma is one of the most oppressive moves in the game

can basically pin most characters if they don't have a grab move

and in that case you can hit that 69 dmg a bunch of times

[violet adder]

Hmmmm, I see your argument

[open inlet]

I would buff literally anything else besides the gamma

well more movement speed on the gamma would be nice actually

[violet adder]

Yeah I was gonna say

[open inlet]

but not a priority

[violet adder]

He can’t dodge a tumbleweed with that speed

[open inlet]

its got a nice movement speed when you cancel it though

pushes you a bit

[fringe axle]

Hmmm

[hollow ingot]

It cancels out the plummeting from doing the melee

And I mean alpha then air special action then melee

Do it in a quick order and a specific time

To REMOVE the endlag so that you stay in the air as if you were doing the first air melee

[open inlet]

bro

[hollow ingot]

THE AIRRRRR SPECIAL ACTIONN

THE AIRR ONE

THE DASH

Wait no I said it wrong

Okay its like this

I CANT REMEMBER THE BYTTON LAYOUT

It is alpha dash special action and cancel it with melee or im pretty sure instead of melee it is dash special action then you do the stab and then the melee

I know u use the air dash tho

I REMEMBER YES

IT IS ALPHA THEN FLYING SPECIAL ACTION BUT CANCEL THAT OUT WITH THE MELEE

and you dont fall down from it

[open inlet]

then what?

and how does the alpha before sa do anything

[hollow ingot]

It doesn't lmao I said before it just makes it feel easier to me you can just do dash special then melee if u want

[hollow ingot]

Rinse and repeat keep doing it to go higher and dont let yourself fall do it right after your done with air melee

I will show video sooj

Soon

[open inlet]

brother I cant keep spamming my flight sa

wtf do you mean rinse and repeat

😭

[hollow ingot]

You cancel it

Thats the part that makes it infinite

You cancel it with air melee it stops the special action from using the gauge

[azure anchor]

this game and balanced in the same sentence

[azure anchor]

its not infinite wtf

fym rinse and repeat

[hollow ingot]

it is...

[azure anchor]

No its not 😭

show me

[hollow ingot]

alr gimme sec im logging on

[azure anchor]

you cant do ground melee in the air

[hollow ingot]

YOU NOT SUPPOSED TO DO THE GROUND MELEE

you gotta do airrrr

air mele

you can be in the air forever with ground melee tho but thats a tech for anothr day

[hollow ingot]

here ya go buddster

[azure anchor]

WAIT

[azure anchor]

HE DOESNT GO DOWN FASTER WHEN YOU REPEAT THAT ANYMORE??

[hollow ingot]

it was always like that...

and you dont notice it but im pressing the dash special action so thats what cancels out the making you go down faster

[azure anchor]

idk how you do it

[hollow ingot]

but since when you press the dash special action it doesnt automatically take special action the melee allows for you to float

[azure anchor]

i keep going down

[hollow ingot]

you do alpha

then dash special action then air melee you might haveto ask brinyspy tho

im not good at explaining

its like in a little order

try mastering dash special action into melee quick and then try adding the alpha

[azure anchor]

nah bro wtf

i keep falling

you're not even using sa tho

[open inlet]

assault endeavour alpha now does 65 at lvl 9

so now we can say it’s alright

[violet adder]

Bro they took him out back

And broke both of his ankles

And punctured his left kidney

[open inlet]

deserved

[violet adder]

I will say he needed a nerf

But this is too far

His beta does 70

His alpha does 65

Where is he supposed to get that damage?

Promience Nova?

That move stanks

[fringe axle]

Doesn't matter

I'm just glad that he's dead now

[violet adder]

That makes one of us

[hollow ingot]

I am tho bro IM SAYINGGG IM USINFNIT SO ITSSS TRUEEE

YOU CANT ASK BUT THEN CHOOSE TO NOT BELIEVE MY WORDS 🥹

[azure anchor]

Wait I got it, I can use it now 😉, not sure how good it is in an actual battle

[hollow ingot]

Thats good

You can use it in battle when you are high up

To rain down alpha since u have good range on those its just like og monoma thats what u are but u need to maintain your cooldowns so u dont run out of alphas

U can spam beta and allat good stuff

I use it endgame only or a spot where a bunch of ppl are staying on single target its not that good

[lament ravine]

What combos does having Acceleration active unlock?

[violet adder]

He doesn’t gain any new combos, his moves just come out faster.
Though his Guardbreak melee combo does become true if I’m correct

I would just say go Wall Run or something else instead. You shouldn’t be playing him that close to where you’d need to use it anyways

[lament ravine]

Would Card Duplication be another good Rapid tuning for him to use instead of Acceleration and Wall Runner? (Don't have Iida or the tuning points for it yet)

[open inlet]

sadly it doesnt

but its pretty close to true

at least I haven't been knocked out of it yet

some people roll but you still get most of the dmg

[violet adder]

Naturally it is if you can get kills

[azure anchor]

It's not true

Even with acceleration

If they spam roll

[open inlet]

begging for Yafo buffs tomorrow

On my hands and knees praying

[proud walrus]

Ykw I agree

I need a rapid hawks cd buff bro

Or REVERT THE MELEE

[fringe axle]

Oh no

We don't need that melee cancel back for him

[proud walrus]

Well if everyone is getting melee into move combos now why can't hawks

Just isnt Fair considering his character is just getting worse

Tunning was the problem

Embrit is gone now so?

[hazy ice]

Hoping his buffs aren't crazy, I like being the only one in my lobbies

[violet adder]

Ye being the only YFO is silly

[fringe axle]

So your point?

Also every character doesn't have melee cancels

Or some of them are just really slow

[hazy ice]

It's perfect, he's slept on but is actually one of the best characters when used right

[open inlet]

Eh he’s not one of the best

The terrible trio, strike hawks, strike kirishima, ofa deku, froppy, aizawa, strike shoto and rapid allmight are all above him imo

His beta and alpha being so inconsistent damage wise is why he can’t be one of the best

that and starting flight uses up 45% of your gauge

and it isn’t even that fast once you are in the air either

I can go faster and further with nejire

[hazy ice]

Buff wise they can probably cut the usage in half but other than I've been having a blast with his 275+ melee combo, haven't had many other issues

[open inlet]

That one sadly isn’t even true with accele

I still use it though

[violet adder]

It’s 40%

Not 45

[open inlet]

It’s 45%

[hazy ice]

Lol yeah it's wonderful when it lands, it usually lands 75% of the time for me

[violet adder]

Then how can I do the movement tech on 42%

You need 1-2% to get the movement tech off at its maximum speed

And it’s a 40% startup

It’s 45% for the skewer if I’m not mistaken

But 40% for flight

[open inlet]

Hm guess I was wrong I distinctly remember being 45%

[ashen juniper]

idk if anyone has tried this but i found a pretty consistent guard break and a little more than that combo where you alpha then press then you alpha into a special action for mid to close ranges. this seems to make the beta more consistent with it.

i dont think its technically true but it seems like it will work in any scenario you would usually go for an alpha + beta except if they are shieldless

[open inlet]

yo I dont think they mentioned it

but they added yafo's laugh when rescuing civs

is so funny in japanese

[open inlet]

this would be worth if the sa actually came back that fast lol

[azure anchor]

He's not ☠️

Literally rng beta

[hazy ice]

Idk what that's supposed to mean lol

[azure anchor]

Sometimes his beta hits, sometimes it don't, sometimes it does 150, sometimes it does 69

[hazy ice]

It's never given me any issues

[azure anchor]

Bro what ☠️

Broski just did not lie right at this moment

[hazy ice]

If I had issues with it I wouldn't have said he's a great character lol

[azure anchor]

Nah you're capping buddy

Your pfp tells everything

[hazy ice]

Sure man

Idk what to tell ya

[gray glacier]

what the best way to cancel out of his flight? On other characters I melee but since he air melee knocks you backwards it feels really bad.

[hazy ice]

Alpha then SA

[dusk mist]

Also gamma>cancel, doing it immediately after a dash is good too you'll go further than if you alpha then sa

[azure anchor]

you wont go further than alpha sa if you do gamma

[south badger]

unless the tuning was bugging out for me
you cant use critical permeation to freely blast the final shockwave of afo's gamma anymore

the moment it activates the tuning goes off

[dusk mist]

You do.

Actually play the character if you're gonna speak about him

But it's okay you must be new to young afo, glad I could educate you. Buddy

[open inlet]

gamma gives you momentum true but I feel like its only really strong with acceleration active

will need to test that

oh gamma dash though I thought you meant gamma on its own yeah I can see it

Yeah unless I'm doing something wrong it's not going further?

This is why we do both + use accele anyway

[azure anchor]

Broski

im the one who made the spacehop acceleration build

and this is from today

[violet adder]

Ladies, you’re all pretty

Don’t get your britches in a twist

[pulsar idol]

what's yafo's best fit for space hop and acceleration

[azure anchor]

Combat rewind

Wait I forgot it might be dangerous

[hazy ice]

😭😭😭

[wet loom]

I'd argue it's Wearable (Heat) for 20 seconds off Acceleration's cooldown

[azure anchor]

it has way less damage

i prefer this

[wet loom]

Oh does it have not as good regular slots?

I also run Rewind Dangerous but I forget what Wearable Heat looks like

[azure anchor]

its this one right

[wet loom]

Yeah that

[azure anchor]

i honestly prefer more purples

since yafo moves take so long to recharge

and without sa you're just cooked

so i put alot in sa reload

[wet loom]

Makes sense

[azure anchor]

and all in alpha damage

[wet loom]

I’d do the same

[azure anchor]

i think it does about 123 if you hit both

and like 45-50 on the blast

[wet loom]

Yeah alpha is definitely his main source of damage

[azure anchor]

yeah i cant gonna take chances on the rng beta

except when its charged

gamma should honestly have more damage imo

[wet loom]

I think gamma is fine how it is

It’s a get off me tool not a damage tool

[azure anchor]

i use it mainly for movement too and its good against stun characters but its ggs against grab characters

but its harder to use the gamma now without getting headshot by nagants broken a

[wet loom]

That’s just a Nagant being broken problem

[azure anchor]

yafo has nothing against flying characters, its honestly sad

[wet loom]

Like you shouldn’t be taking that much damage from a headshot in this game 😭

[azure anchor]

350 like what

[wet loom]

To be fair you shouldn’t use gamma against Nagant anyway because it makes you a free target

[azure anchor]

sometimes it works

you catch their wakeup with gamma and repeat

[wet loom]

Depends on if they mash things on wake up

[azure anchor]

its only a problem when its more than 1 guy fighting you

nagant's sa should be based on distance

[wet loom]

Yeah some players I see getting shot at by multiple people but still stay in the air

[wet loom]

I think it should have to charge up like Sniper from TF2 and Widowmaker from Overwatch

[azure anchor]

i see

cant believe they did nothing for her, aam and tech shiggy

[hollow ingot]

More dmg based on how far u are

[azure anchor]

thats what i said...

[hollow ingot]

Did not

[azure anchor]

thats exactly what i said bro

☠️

[hollow ingot]

I said it more-

In a

Clear way

[open inlet]

Normal reload tunings are not even making a second difference in your cooldown

Not worth it over a 20 sec diff for acceleration

[azure anchor]

That much difference on 1 level?

[summer ginkgo]

I got him today. He's my first gacha unit... Somehow

[solar dew]

Level up order for this guy?

[violet adder]

I personally go 4 everything then go Beta 9, Alpha 9, Gamma 9. Usually at least

[azure anchor]

Alpha is his main damage and beta is just too unpredictable when landing

[azure anchor]

A4 B4 G4 A9 B9 G9

[violet adder]

I just have my own style

[solar dew]

i need tips for yafo

just a general guide, dos and donts

[open inlet]

mrow put out a guide

I’d go watch that

[solar dew]

thanks! helpful as always
