Silver player and kinda struggling to learn I feel. So I'm hoping to learn from someone much higher ranked than me

steady geyser
#

@sharp egret I'll play ya and we can talk about some games if you want

sharp egret
#

Whichever works for you

steady geyser
#

Sorry I missed the ping lol

sharp egret
steady geyser
#

Give me a quick sec tho

#

I lost my milk

#

?

sharp egret
#

Ight I ain't give you much to see lmaoo

steady geyser
#

Haha sorry I've gotta test ya a little first

sharp egret
#

Aye I got a round!

steady geyser
#

😎

#

Alright first thing's first

#

This game sucks so try to use the training stage most of the time

sharp egret
#

Bett

steady geyser
#

Since it makes the game a little less laggy lol

sharp egret
#

Sorry for my connection

steady geyser
#

What's that tc on block

#

Ah it's alright, what are ya gonna do

sharp egret
#

Idk the frame data of it

#

Feels unsafe

#

How's it looking boss

steady geyser
#

So you know when you're minus and whatnot

sharp egret
#

Over reliant on the target combo?

steady geyser
#

But you still try to press out most of the time

#

You should just block things out more

sharp egret
#

Wym block things out?

steady geyser
#

So are you familiar with like

#

Plus frames and minus frames

sharp egret
#

I know that plus means safe on block and minus means unsafe

#

But I dont kknow the exacts

steady geyser
#

So, more than just making things safe on block

#

Plus frames make you win if the other guy presses too

#

So like if I do my c.lp, and then afterwards we both press, I'm gonna win most of the time

sharp egret
#

Like my standing med kick?

steady geyser
#

Nah that one's minus

#

So minus doesn't mean unsafe necessarily

#

Sweeping is unsafe

#

Your s.mk is minus but not enough for me to hit you out of its recovery

#

I can still start something up before you, but we use unsafe to mean I can get a guaranteed combo

sharp egret
#

So what move of luke should I be doing for that then?

#

Cause I use his med kick for poking and whatnot

steady geyser
#

Your c.lp is plus like mine

sharp egret
#

Crouching medium punch is another one I like

steady geyser
#

When you're like kinda far away and poking

#

A lot of the buttons will be minus to like

#

Discourage you from pressing one after the other

#

But when you're close, all bets are off

#

And you're supposed to be able to bully with them

#

So if you knock me down and you're close, you can walk/dash up and press something like c.lp and I have to respect it

#

And then you can press something after that

#

And I kinda have to hold that as you push yourself out or I get hit

sharp egret
#

You can't use your ex dp for that tho?

steady geyser
#

I can do that yeah, that's my like escape option

#

But I don't always have the meter, and it's a big risk for me

#

Since you can bait it for a lot of damage

sharp egret
#

Ight bet bet. Typically when someone Is down I go for either a,target combo or throw or block

#

So I'll turn the target combo into a c.lp

steady geyser
#

Yeah exactly

#

Oh crap I forgot I'm in a tournament that's about to start

#

I can still chat but I've gotta blast

sharp egret
#

That's fine g. Appreciate the help!

steady geyser
#

Yeah for sure!

#

I can keep talking but I might disappear a little lol

sharp egret
#

Good luck on the tournament too and tyty

#

I do a lot better when I'm learning hands on so whenever you're down to play just lmk. I never got shi going on so it's fr whenever you're down

steady geyser
#

Yeah boss for sure

#

I can game most evenings

sharp egret
steady geyser
#

You did have me scared lol

sharp egret
#

Yee I'm tryna get my fundamentals down perfectly. Good defense and good punishing and spacing

steady geyser
#

Yeah the foundation's what's key

#

So about the plus frame thing

#

What that means for you on defense is that you should be respecting those strings of plus moves most of the time

#

You were trying to mash out really often and you were getting caught for it

sharp egret
#

So I just block and put us back into neutral?

steady geyser
#

Yeah

#

Sometimes they'll abuse that and keep like walking or dashing up to reset the pressure

#

But your safest bet is just blocking stuff out a lot of the time

#

And waiting for something that you can get a free hit for, like a punish or an anti air

sharp egret
#

Bett so that aspect should come with experience

sharp egret
#

Yoo @steady geyser want to play a few games?
