no

stable nymph
#

nonsense that overshadows it

mental rose
#

u dont get it bc it's not just a purely visual thing

twin pawn
#

r u finna fix it

mental rose
#

it's the most fundamental part of how u experience elsword

#

it's the responsiveness and feel of your character, legit like first and foremost

#

u like the way eve feels and moves, and u liked how that carried over into her overall playstyle that is literally why u played her

#

and u probly also thought her concept was cool ok

#

but

#

first and foremost is that

#

like when u go in day 1

#

and mess around w ur character and ur like whoa this is pretty kool

#

that's what it comes back to, it's just a crappy feel. Especially when u get to experience what the game COULD be like everytime you enter a town or rest area LOL

#

like come on

#

we gotta get it up outta here bro

#

🤢

twin pawn
#

u do that

stable nymph
#

the way we experienced elsord is not how some rf who funds the servers and just wants to escape skill and awaken and drvastating strike u for 800k experiences it…

twin pawn
#

godspeed

mental rose
#

fatendestiny

#

would always talk about

#

how he likes the way elesis handles and all that but that he got carpal tunnel from his military service w/e so he's p. limited in the sort of stuf fhe can do, but still like to run around and blow ppl with 9999999k snap crasher or w/e LOL

#

but u stil like how the character and game feels

stable nymph
#

like tbh atm i dont even want to give current elsoed any air of legitimacy as a game similar to wat we grew up on

#

the betr the game feels and the more responsive stuf is and all

mental rose
#

it's the same game at core

#

mechanics-wise at least

#

but mechanics in els go a long wya

#

way

stable nymph
#

the worse is going to feel when u get onetapd by nonsense and remember this is clown fiesta

mental rose
#

well ok not briandead mechancis

mental rose
#

for me

#

I could get one-tapped

#

all day all night

#

as long as I get to shmove around and exist on a rena, im winning for the entire 40 seconds i get 2 move around b4 i get rak inferno'd iiwii

stable nymph
#

i want to have control over the actual outcome my opponent is trying to deprive me of and personal small victories kinda feel hollow to me if i know my opponent isnt playing the saem game

mental rose
#

what makes me want to put down the game, is having to feel like im playing under water bc of a 100 ms delay, and then get blown up by rak inferno on top of that, and think to myself "if it werent for this gross feeling delay i could have done xyz ", which i probably tried to do regardless but got blown back by 100ms into dropped inputs LOL

buoyant folio
#

certain players in Arena bring out the disrespectful side of me 😌

stable nymph
#

like we cud do all we want playing our own make believe gaem and then tanosx wud just

#

get up

#

maxi strike

#

and id just think like

#

wow he wasnt even trying

#

i cudv just been fighting a trainingn dummy

#

then seen LOSE at the end

twin pawn
#

me delay chaining you because you pressed hyper accel

#

mm yummy red outline

mental rose
mental rose
#

turn his brian off

#

and maxi strike

#

because we have a 100ms delay

stable nymph
#

i dont think we did back then

mental rose
#

that prevents you from meaningfully respodning ot him

stable nymph
#

we just didnt have good enuf options to chalenge that…

mental rose
#

yeah and back then u could beat players like tanosx with a combination of brain and mechanix

#

now u cant

#

bc of stuff like this 100ms delay

#

reducing the relevants of actual mechanics

#

relevance8

stable nymph
#

yr die winnign every tournament until like renewals suggests otherwise imo

#

u can steal occasional win in arena maybe but

mental rose
#

tanos wouldn't have won it with a YR that wasn't safety

#

it wasn't just YR DE, it was DE + the literal top 1 player in the game

#

on YR

#

it was busted as heck dont get me wrong

#

but tanos was getting juiced whenever he wasn't with safety, it showed hard.

#

and i love tanos ok

#

i was good friends w/ him

#

(until ppl roasted him after pan am and he stopped talking to me -_-)

#

but if the YR wasn't safety

stable nymph
#

im fairly certain safety and will were the only players who played the kind of elsoed that wud not care for this input latency thing bak then and it was why they visibly dunkd on every1…

mental rose
#

the only players

#

to play this kind of elsword

#

or 'that' kind of elsword

noobsux has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

stable nymph
#

they played the game for what it rly was and not wat they THOUGHT it shouldve been

mental rose
#

literally every YR tried to play like safety, hell noutails tried to pull of YR DE and got clapped.

stable nymph
#

found the word getting me bannd

twin pawn

say it 2 more times

my guy nou wouldve won alienware if ryan didnt miss every button he pushed LOL

#

what

#

hello

#

we all played the game for what it rly was

stable nymph
#

no we absolutely did not

#

we were some stupid idealists

mental rose
#

i had been sparring safety since literally hte first year

#

that I started playing Elsword

#

in 2011

stable nymph
#

clinging onto what made us stand out in s1

mental rose
#

constantly

stable nymph
#

when by the time of ara and add the game was completely different

mental rose
# stable nymph clinging onto what made us stand out in s1

maybe u were, I was focused on playing the character that I loved to play and improving as much as possible on that character. When they removed WS from the game, I was far from done with it LOL. I had answers for ara when they yoinked WS out, and I had answers for add when they yoinked her out a second time and made her immortal for renewals

#

LOL

#

like

stable nymph
#

most ppl back then had no concept of macro because it simply was not relevant until we started waking up to howling or sup

mental rose
#

not true at all, it just wasn't as strong

#

until supp

#

tbh

#

no

#

not supp

#

flying kite

stable nymph
#

ya it wasnt strong enuf for us to care about

mental rose
#

and even tehn

#

then

#

nahhhhh nah hold on

#

even that's still not true

#

LOL

stable nymph
#

so we never bothered to learn

mental rose
#

I always cared about macro, I teamed with ling for and was very focused on trying to learn macro in 2s. I was better at micro espec bc i played more 1s, but ling literally had a 30fps craptop for the longest time and would always try to focus on macro

#

bro

#

willb in s1

#

was literally first player i ever saw running a respawn ring

#

i th ought that was rly smart

stable nymph
#

like if u watch mp usage from me in any of those old tournaments

#

it was godawful

#

and never improved

#

i just did not care to factor it into my gameplay until i quit and came back after renewals

#

will used respawn ring and no element

mental rose
#

for my garbage macro decisions LOL

stable nymph
#

bc he didnt have much ed psure LOL

mental rose
#

that is literally a huge part of y i even teamed w/ someone like that, like i knew about myself i was trying to improve on it

#

like ling died with at on of mana

#

and we were up 1

stable nymph
#

like inspire eves were broke f2p until we started winning tournaments..

#

leedizzle tournaments were how we got our first ib weps

mental rose
#

and i got nimble procc'd by the ShK with infi mana hp

#

and the instead of dying I started kiting and trying to play the magic pixel cuz "I dont wanan give him free kill!!!!"

fiery lionBOT
#
mishani has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

mental rose
#

then he respawned with no mana and i died 3s later and u can just see he thinks i am dumb as hell LOL

mental rose
#

but i also n oticed

#

that the respawn ring

#

was actually putting in work

#

LOL

#

he'd respawn way faster than we were used to and have iron scraps or smth to boot

#

like it was actually a problem

#

lowkey

#

i enjoyed th inking about the macro and I appreciated how the game's macro emerged organically

#

from it's micro

#

and btw

stable nymph
#

like once it got to just some chars win the moment they secure 100+ mp advantage over u

mental rose
#

safety's macro

#

also emerged organically

#

from his micro

stable nymph
#

and u werent playing a char that cud do that

#

i feel like continuing to play said char

#

is failure of macro…

mental rose
#

and when that happened i actually did try to reroll

-_-

#

I went through all 4 roses trying to see if they had options to deal with a lot of the nonsense that was going at the time

#

but i was also

stable nymph
#

i tried to force eve every tournament like up until renewals and then i had my taste of nasodraven14 and twitface

#

and then the tournament after that was gbh into onetap spurt

sinful anvil
#

looking for characters where i could leverage my mechanix and tastes as well

stable nymph
#

and i was jsut like

sinful anvil
#

and btw

#

safety

#

was the exact same way

#

like i promise u

stable nymph
#

the game ive been playing died so long ago

sinful anvil
#

if YR was a husbando

#

instead of a waifu

#

safety wouldnt have been playing YR

#

LMAO

stable nymph
#

like i remember portix and i signed up for that tournament

sinful anvil
stable nymph
#

and we just noshowed bc it was so insane

#

eve converts for blak hole

#

then dw oneshots with spurt

#

then during respawns they get mp to do it again

what thell

this bot

#

acc tually sx

#

sux

stable nymph
#

i think too many of us in the pre renewal period clung on to wat we thought was cool rather than doing wat actually worked

sinful anvil
#

this game's macro always began with and emerged from its micro its always been like that. I expect a lot of wild nonsense from these games n tbh it's a part of what makes them 👌 imo, but what's important is that, at a fundamental level, it feels good to just move around and exist on the characters in the game. if that stops being a thing then that's a huge no thanks from me

sinful anvil
#

well

#

please don't group me in with those peeps then LOL, that was not me and it's also not where i'm coming from with this 100 ms issue

#

in fact

#

that was 1 of the major issues i had with kirbyblader

#

back in the day LMAO

#

OR AT TEH VERY ELAST

#

KIRBYBLADER'S FANS

#

OK

#

kirby would cut the nonsens

#

when it was important but all the hype vids and stuff

#

had nasodraven15's pulling up in arena

#

trying to do step-it-up combos

#

and then flaming wind sneaker

#

for being lame boring ez mode zz>zz braindead

stable nymph
#

like if safety played swordies idt hed b platform sweeping for no reason or egoing ^zs

sinful anvil
#

and thats also another thing

#

i think it also might come down to

#

to an extent

#

the difference

#

between the characters

#

that we played

#

LOL

#

because eve was 1o f those swaglord characters ok

#

like u had a lot of hot steppa combo pop off vid type peeps on eve 2

#

but for a lot o those types of players

#

wind sneaker was like the literal antithesis to all of that

#

thats why u had players like qwasser who would roll WS and then try to do all of these fancy shmancy weird combos and stuff

#

o try and stand out as unqiue

#

and i always was of the opinion

#

that this person

#

doesn't actually know how to play elsord...

#

like there's a time and place for all of the moves he is using

#

in his combo videos

stable nymph
#

ig wat i think is that we were all being qwassers

sinful anvil
#

yeah

#

i absolutely

#

was not

#

LOL

#

like ever

#

people hated on em for it too

#

they hated on US

#

i should say

#

because

#

wind sneaker players ing eneral

#

LOL

#

(i mean ithought she was cool dont get me wrong)

sinful anvil
#

so he didn't understand

#

and there4

#

did not have an appreciation

#

for just how cool the character was in real matches

#

like all of those niche weird routes he was finding

#

I KNEW THEM ALL BTW, but i understood their value within the context of actual matches in weird niche situations

#

the Airelinna that everyone started fuming about in season 2

#

that busted broken skill

#

had been functioning that exact same way since day 1 of its release

stable nymph
#

like in earlier seasons i feel like learning the niche things was useful and there was meaning to the depth

#

but then as the game just devolved to securing resource advantage to snobal ppl to death

sinful anvil
#

it's just that no wind sneaker bothered to mess around with it because you had NF reducing your mp gain to 0 and the thing cost 150mp. they lowered cost by 30 mp and all of a sudden everyone is tosisng it out and talking about how op it was. I have clips of me using linna in S1 to dodge mana break myself during dread chase delay and dodge the missiles ok, i thought THAT was cool as hell. That was MACRO!!!! all of those cool uses for linna to tick urself out of the busted setups had been saround since day 1!!

stable nymph
#

everything else just became unimportant

sinful anvil
#

you said it ended with ara

#

but that is nonsense

#

when ara released

#

and SD was broken

#

with flyign kite

#

the biggest counterplay kite i noticed was understanding how low-altitude shenannigans worked, and then using ur air options to play the platforms when you know they're fishing for kite, bc if they hit u and cause low-altitude nonsense, it messes up the kite tracking and cancels the skill

#

then combine that with either of the 2 linnas

#

im sure eve oculd have done it too

#

could*

#

and this was back safety rolled off of WS bc she didn't do enough damage after siege nerf, RS was being a pain with "house runes"

#

and it required "too much precision" (safety words) aka 2 much effort to deal w/ him in neutral on WS when you can just roll SD and ^x outrange his runes.

#

and yk it wasn't my #micro obsession that stopped me + safety from winning alinware laptops either. That entire 2v2 team comp with linna and YR res + suppression, bleed dmg was MY IDEA BRO ILL SAY IT. It was actually a really disgusting big money comp that we had no business losing on. We lost that tournament and placed 3rd because I hard choked (after chugging energy drink bad idea -_-).

#

that wasn't macro problem that was me sucking as a player

#

LOL

stable nymph
#

like relying on kindness of sd to continue to intrract instead of clocking more kite seems kinda lame

sinful anvil
#

when she has full beads

stable nymph
#

didnt she get to cancel it wenever bak then

#

they had to nerf it a few times

fiery lionBOT
#
noobsux has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

sinful anvil
#

yes, and doing that would put her on cooldown. If she did that during altitude shenannigans it wou ld put her on the platform directly beneath u

#

then if u followed up on her back side (because she cancelled it with her counter skill), then u get catch. WHich mind u, u need ot be able to have ur character RESPOND to ur inputs within 100ms to be able to do that reliably JUST SAYING, but it was def a thing

stable nymph
#

why would u need to respond, if u know ur going to low altitude and they will end up below u and vulnerable u have all of kite animation to react..

sinful anvil
#

i had a LOT of exp in that matchup but it also leveraged rena mechanics i had spent a long time developing so u could say that part of it was teh 'cool' factor. I rly fcng like rena tho idk what 2 tell u, i had a WS obsession LOL

sinful anvil
#

u

#

because of hwo it tps them

#

all over the place

#

like when it happens

#

it's really eratic

stable nymph
#

like if u r either cooked or they are below u and vuln

sinful anvil
#

if u saw t ud get what i mean immediately LOL

#

it8

stable nymph
#

then u dont rly care about case where u r cooked right

#

u just send it assuming they r below u

sinful anvil
#

well u do care about the case where ur cooked because it might end up

#

in a scramble

#

LOL

#

and then whether or not u get cooked depends on how u react to and manage that situation

#

but also

#

in the event that htey end up below u, which often does happen

#

the way you play the platforms to stay in low-altitude positions

#

u dont know what exact position u will bei n

#

in

#

when they kite you

#

you might be moving through the top side of the platform and have majority of ur character model on top of the plat, in which case if u get kited at the moment ull take mid-air hit stun and then insta recover on top of the platform

#

thats like

#

the best scenario LOL

#

but it could also be that ur majority below the plat and they kite you once

#

and then cancel

#

after 1h it

#

so you drop down to the plat below, and they may or may not end up directly below you (as opposed to off to the side), in which case you 100% have a scramble on ur hands LOL, i'd be looking to stomp and then try to cross them up or smth because if she turns around and presses falling u already kno how that goes 💀

#

but also if she is slow with the cancel, and hits you several times wiht kite while you're below the plat, you might actually get pushed UP onto the top of the plat again

#

which is like

#

unexpected ideal scenario

#

LOL

#

also this part is rena specific but it gets a lot messier (which is a good thing for the not-SD player in this case) if u add airelinna in2 the mix

#

but thats rena privilege iiwii...

#

sylph or nymph either 1

#

tbh i used sylph vs safety

#

adn nymph vs the other SD's

stable nymph
#

tbh im so irked reading how much u had to prep for this scrnario when in aras pov shes just pushing her button

sinful anvil
#

THATS

stable nymph
#

and when it gets low altitudes

sinful anvil
#

WHAT SAFETY SAID TOOOOO

#

LOL

#

WHEN IAS KED HIM TO COME BACK TO WS

stable nymph
#

shes just gonna push fall

#

and if things work out for u

sinful anvil
#

but the thing is it didnt FEEL extra to me

#

at the time

stable nymph
#

u get to roll the dice again in 20s

sinful anvil
#

cuz i had WS obsession and had been playing the character for so long, I genuinely liked thining about the WS mechanics and tools available to me, and how to solve new in-game problems with them i LOVED it. And also mind u ok i get how it's irking but

#

this strat was rly consistent

#

agaisnt p. much every SD EXCEPT safety

#

i don 't think rearou started playing SD seriously until the suppression era LOL

#

i approached every SD match like this and the result is that if the SD doesn't turn their brain on more than just pressing kite + falling they're going to lose. And I would almnost always lose to safety on SD

#

but i already almost always lost to safety on WS

#

LOL

#

and the mirrors i had vs safety's WS where I was literally pulling out every trick in the book to try and win were legit the funnest matches I ever played in elsord full stop

#

and i lost the vast majority of those matches like he actually steamrolled me

#

thats y fendo and co lowkey would always hate on me in early s1 bc they'd see someone say 'mishani top ws' while knowing that i regularly went 10-3 vs safety in spars. But that's ALSO why i can confidently say that safety was absolutely not just a macro player.

#

safety was strong from the ground up

sinful anvil
# stable nymph u get to roll the dice again in 20s

also the 20s is ur opportunity to capitalize and catch n all that. In the case of WS like obviously I would be trying to do dmg and build up mp for linna, but as eve u probly ahd actual damage options back then LOL

stable nymph
#

i didnt mean to imply they were pure macro but rathr the rest of us werent rly

sinful anvil
#

TBH I CANT BELEIEV U SAYING ALL THAT BRO ngl im not doubting u but idr you ever being

#

i dr you ever being

i didnt pay muhc attention2 i t cuz we got hard cheesed r1 in that 2nd 2v2 tourny it was actually tragic...

and then 1ld ended up in finals

heavens fist vs weiyan

LOL

#

then agian tho now that im thinking about it

#

in s1 idr seeing you and willb in arena 2v2 very much....

nah im def misrememebrimg im sure we got you in 2s in s1

ss was like 140 and duk was like 160?

mental rose

u guys were friends w ling to right

#

i think he started deranking

#

after u guys started

stable nymph
#

s1 had like our +7 deadly glad period

#

but it also had elympics

#

and +10 henirs toward the end

mental rose
#

ok ngl i wasnt a "micro kool combo swaglord" but i still was rly cringe about like not cheating, and staying ss to pvp "legitimately" against good players instead of 'stomping on scrubs'

#

but ngl i also didnt mind fighting u guys over and over in 180 ap tier arena either 💀

mental rose
#

respecc..

#

i am ethically opposed to killing mobs it is what it is

#

but i always thought

#

henir challenge

#

was mad cool

#

LOL

#

people had all of the strats

#

down

#

for how to properly handle each boss and the strats themselves were also cool

stable nymph
#

type h card for 20m

mental rose
#

made kool use of elsword physix mecheanics and yeah

#

stuff like using certian monster summoning cards

#

u know

#

i also rly liked the idea of

#

collecting different monster summoning cars in order ot use them

#

in free training

#

to test different game mechanics n see how they worked

#

and figure out new stuff LOL

#

like I LIKED THE WAY IT HAD u

stable nymph
#

like jerb was micro man compred to kirby or rearou but kirby was micro man compared to willb…

mental rose
#

or i liked the way it incentivized you to think critically about all the different types of mobs uve encountered in the game, and which ones have mechanics that would help u test w/e it is u want to test, or practice w/e it is u want to practice

mental rose
#

the thing is

#

kirby

#

played really smart in 1s im sure every rena tell u that ok

fiery lionBOT
#
mishani has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

mental rose
#

SRS

#

the thing about kirby is i feel like he did a lot of circus stuff for the fanZ ok LOL

#

like the gap between kirby and jerb

#

was

#

HUGE

#

in terms of how effective they actually were

#

at winning gaems

#

caiius was basically playing on 100ms

#

back then

#

LOL

stable nymph
#

even wen hes trying idt he has positive matchup vs will even despite there being pretty big gap in mechanix and familiarity with sword ppl

mental rose
#

like caiius would springstep so fast in arena that if I randomly jumped infront of his elboy

stable nymph
#

hes not rly fighting ppl hes just

#

doing his own thing

mental rose
#

he would springsep 3-4x into my body before realizing 'the rena is right next to me i can just press z'

#

LOL

#

YEAH

mental rose
#

safety and I

#

LOL

#

i think a large part of was also that safety took a hiatus early on and was playing a ton of persona 4 arena (vanilla version), and before that he played a lot of blazblue and etc

#

meanwhile

#

like bro i used to play mabinogi

#

sup 😡

#

i mean and gunz and all taht but thats diff

#

safgety tried to explain corner concepts to me in elswrod terms in like 2011

#

and i legit thought he was speakin tongues at first LOL like hwas ex plaining why the bottom right corner platform on wintery is really strong for WS

#

bc of how they can cover every option

#

with BFS, reflect kick, etc

#

and iw as like 🐒

stable nymph
#

movement tech wss

mental rose
#

idgi ima just dodge his attacks and hith im w/ mine ezpz 🐒

stable nymph
#

so overrated in our era

mental rose
#

WS movement was huge but if el tlike it was under appreciated LOL

#

actually u kno what

#

ur right

#

i forgot about some of the hooligans

#

i remember there was tihs rena

#

eucliwood

#

she would run petri 3

#

and clearly had some sort of >>vZ macro, cuz >>vZ was NOT easy on rena at all

#

and he would petri u

#

and then

#

spam the macro

#

and >>vZ at the like mach speed

#

and chunk ppl for 40% with it

#

LOL

#

like yeah ok bro

mental rose
#

i kinda cringe

#

because of how muhc ^V ^V ^V i was doing

#

on rena

#

LOL

#

like there is literally no reason

#

its not elboy ...

stable nymph
#

psure will was better at cem 1s than i was despite him not being able to eve spring comfortably while i was like second coming of mal

mental rose
#

LMOA

#

ok yeah

stable nymph
#

tbh i hated how non eve players treated eves doing low consecutive springs as

#

good movement for eve

Reason: Bad word usage

#

like eve needs her diagonal dash to do a fast fall, but if u land from a fast fall u lose the ability to diagonal dash after a neutral jump (which gives u starting height to do anything useful like place a ^z)

#

low consecutive springs cudnt lead to anything so the bottlenek was moving in a way that let u start with a jump while retaining diagonal dash

#

which mal discovered u cud do by bak canceling the landing animation

buoyant folio
#

Stepping on Rena sounds atrociously hilarious

#

😭

kindred frost
#

yeah I agree, that is super frustating. It makes me feel so slow, and that I cant trust my inputs, which affects my game play and decision making. I lose trades I feel like I shouldnt.

buoyant folio
#

All rena does is move around by kicking, eat hot chip, and spam funny arrow

#

Okay mb Mishani you're so right

#

cold chip* 😔

kindred frost
#

I love how we're talking about the science of input delay and Lerne pops up and is like "I hate her voice man"

buoyant folio

LMAO

I mean it's true

she sounds like an angry hag

off-topic but look at this beautiful creature

kindred frost

So real.

tbf she converted a lot of people into Rabbit Gang

kindred frost
#

is there anyway to fix these input delay? Like maybe a software or something

#

I already play on full screen

buoyant folio
#

I'm certain high refresh rate can lower latency

stable nymph
#

ngl it was pretty useful in teams bc it just let me hover around ready to respond to things way more readily than i cud otherwise

buoyant folio
#

VSync can make latency problems worse

#

Obviously a good connection helps a lot

#

and a constant stable fps

kindred frost
#

I have 144hz refresh rate

buoyant folio
#

but like most of latency will probably be tied to the servers themselves

#

so you.. won't be able to do much

#

to lower it

kindred frost

smh ~_~

Unless KoG decides to be quirky and spoil their NA players

stable nymph

but the return on time investment was pretty low compared to if i had just learned to bettr use blink/spitfire and explored less greedy aka more reliable combo routes

buoyant folio

Brains

stable nymph
#

if u get skilled out of something a few times it probably means it doesnt work on ppl who r mashing aka shud probably stop doing it LOL

buoyant folio
#

I mean

#

you can arguably be outmashed out of almost anything if someone tries hard enough

#

and if the game decides to be quirky

#

Besides using a skill also lets you learn timings and placement

#

better to use and learn than to not learn at all and remove a skill completely from your kit

kindred frost
stable nymph
#

stop doing it in context where u just saw it not work

buoyant folio

P sure there's some players who h ave learned how to reliably mash out of things thanks to certain mechanics and bugs the game has though

Why stop at a shower

You can probably go through 4 years of college, find your dream job

get a boyfriend/girlfriend

get married

have 5 children

Retire

and then they'll still be hitstunned

i dont rly agree that everything is mashable but maybe i havent run into specific folks u have in mind

that was from teth air vs fendo arc mb

oml tht was so awkward

air had like +10 full add dmg cbs talkign about pianist fingers and trhe 'reverse momentum taser cancel' tech but then the irony

wa that azimuth

he mained eve

a professional pianist

air cudnt rly springstep normaly iirc

oh god

stable nymph

how u land affected ur next jump

sinful anvil

wth*

#

why is that

#

do u kno LOL

#

like y would ur previous jump affect eat ur dashes in next jump if u land to reset them first

stable nymph
#

i think that was just the purpose of them giving eve a heavy landing animation

sinful anvil
#

OH

stable nymph
#

like when u land from a fastfall u dont go to neutral

sinful anvil
#

is it the heavy landing animation that stopped u?

stable nymph
#

i supose so ya

sinful anvil
#

i swear

#

rena not having a heavy landing animation in an environment where every other character did was 1 of the most busted things about her LOL

stable nymph
#

i hated cbs so much back then

sinful anvil
#

back to turn to land in neutral

#

and that solved it right

#

<

#

like on the wya down from diagonal jump

stable nymph
#

and then turn back to face forward bc iirc if u only turn back it automaticaly forces u i to a dash

sinful anvil
#

ya

#

well i didnt kno ab out the dash part but ya i face forward

#

the < > or ><

stable nymph
#

ya eve cud enter her dash without inputting dash ehich

#

made it easier on us to deal with born to blood

sinful anvil
#

NAHHHH U CANT JUST WRITE OF SHMOVEMENT BACK HTEN OK I T DEF WAS IMPORTANT

sinful anvil

i swear the only ppl who had to respect leg wound

were like

other melee characters

💀

#

maybe aisha>?

stable nymph

it forced eve into zzz active but

sinful anvil
#

brina wud kno tbh

#

but aisha had tp

stable nymph
#

our actives were strong so it was ok

sinful anvil
#

LOL

stable nymph
#

we cudnt dash from neutral

#

needed at least a jump

sinful anvil
#

tbh

#

after they gave ws

#

leg wound

#

ngl

#

landing leg wound on an eve

#

felt like

#

u just won the game

#

l.

#

tbh maybe that was cbs

#

cuz i dont thinkw e ahd leg wound low kick

#

until after cbs

#

lmao

#

probly bc cbs was so hard

#

to

catch

#

ok tbh how r u gna say u weren't focused enough on macro when u had

thunderbolt hyper

#

🤔

#

MN ELSORD WAS SUHC A COOL GAME LOL

stable nymph

i mean the fact i interacted at all insted of just

waiting for one of the best hypers in the game

I still remmeber howling when I read that

2018 cbs or cu

thats when i lost to marco oover n over dspite clearly having bertter mechancis neutral and etc

i wish the good players were around to experience it

i am errorcode

i did stuf like

but thinking about how 2 solve the problem w/ mechanics being 1 of the huge tools @ ur disposal is still peak. Without that it's so sleeper

and that still aplies todya 2024 there are problems that oculd b ezily solved

stable nymph
#

jumping as the partner of the guy i was comboing was about to come in for a save

sinful anvil

with mechanics if it were nt for the fact we haev a massive

stable nymph

to trigger low altitude so i cud get a free mash on a 200mp

nah

that has gotta go im sry

cu was just broken bak then too

kindred frost
sinful anvil

but remember

sinful anvil
#

and im not saying it wasnt viable before bc we def were on that nonsense #tumblecharacters,

but if u tried it in tourny and got hit at wrong time

#

u could lose

#

the 200mp

#

in 2019

#

u could just let it rip

#

and ur mp in particular

#

was rly valuable

#

wait

#

no yeah

#

ok im not sure how ezily u could get it back from swap

#

maybe u just swap and ur back in LOL

stable nymph
#

ya i just mean i was fully scumlord in 2019 no more playing the game for how i wanted it to be played

#

playing it for wat it was…

#

im sure the older era equivalent wudv just been clocking converts to hf ppl until it was time to clock converts to fred

#

i didnt even use hf

#

idk why i kept using assault spear

sinful anvil
#

yeah

#

wqhen u said that

#

the other day

#

i was confused

#

LOL

#

espec in s2 3v3s?

#

you didn hf?

#

maybe i was thikning of whoa

stable nymph
#

in tournament days i didnt hf

sinful anvil
#

whoa wasnt you right that was somoene lse

#

else

stable nymph
#

in arena i did use hf especialy earlier on

#

whoa was not me ya

sinful anvil
#

tournament days as in 2019+?

stable nymph
#

huh 2019 was wayyyy later than tournament days

#

2019 was rosso raid days dude LOL

sinful anvil
#

look htey all kind ablur2 gether..

#

rosso...

stable nymph
#

im talking alienware to renewals era im psure i didnt bring hf

sinful anvil
#

y didnt u hf?

#

wait

#

was hf good

#

during alienware times

#

i remember a LOT of assault spear atp

stable nymph
#

it was a giant stun

sinful anvil
#

did it have the dmg tho

stable nymph
#

assault spear was basicaly a harder to hit hf that i cudnt follow up after usually

#

idr but even if hf itself didnt do as much dmg

#

follow up oberon guard wud def put it above

sinful anvil
#

y didnt u bring it???

stable nymph
#

and itd probably lead to mb

sinful anvil
#

i always assumed

stable nymph
#

prob because i was stupid

sinful anvil
#

u guys speared bc spear did good dmg and had that angle

#

on it

stable nymph
#

id probably be only considering best case scenarios

#

where i can folo up on spear and it hits targets hf cudnt

#

rather than realistic scenario of

#

spear being harder to hit in general on multipl targets due to funny angle and being difficult to follow up

sinful anvil
#

was spear

#

ur idea oriignally?

#

bc i recall

stable nymph
#

ya

sinful anvil
#

multiple eves

#

being on the spear wave

#

after a certain point

#

LOL

#

tbh is spear a base eve skill

#

it must be

stable nymph
#

hm idk maybe we were all stupid

#

no

sinful anvil
#

wdj

#

h

stable nymph
#

but cn and cem both had variants

sinful anvil
#

well hf was also a cool skill

stable nymph
#

cns was horizontal and imo much better bc easier to hit multiple ppl with that x axis coverage

#

cems was feeder move imo until eve got core

sinful anvil
#

horizontal spear u just jump over it if linna is out

#

diagonal spear it takes up the whole linna

#

adn then explodes hitbox through the whole thing 🙄

#

altho HF would do same

#

did the shockwave of hf stun?

#

or just laucnh

#

launch

stable nymph
#

maybe we didnt use hf because some chars had stun resist

#

launch on shokwave ya

#

only stuns on fist hit

sinful anvil
#

OH YERAHH

YEAHH

NAH

by " some chars"

is he'd appear

with the sunhat on

playing in the relaxed

#

layed back way

#

possible

stable nymph
#

will was forged in vn powrr hours

sinful anvil
#

he'd stand

stable nymph
#

thats how he sees so far into the future

sinful anvil
#

over my body when i was kd

#

and wait for me to get up

#

and then press stoic

#

he didnt care

#

that i knew he was gonna do it

#

he'd do it anwyay

#

and iw ould tell safety

#

what is wrong w this brazzersman house run rs he literally justt presses stoic

#

but the thing is he would take games and it felt like he shouldn tb taking games it was weird

#

a true enigma...

stable nymph
#

michawk was the og…

sinful anvil
#

oh yeah i dont htink i ever saws michawk even type

stable nymph
#

before will repping the no flash swordies there was michawk

sinful anvil
#

LOL

#

but nah he would get carried away sometimes w/ regret i swear him and regret would try n do some

#

swordfire egochecking shennanigans sometimes...

stable nymph
#

i wudnt b surprised if mic was primary elsoed player will modeled his gameplay off of initialy

sinful anvil
#

michawk n regret...

stable nymph
#

just no frills but efective and we fought him so often on our eves

sinful anvil
#

did u notice how

#

regret

#

used to play pretty well

#

then he got rly geared in s2

#

or s1???

#

it was at somep oint

#

he realized swordfire was busted

stable nymph
#

regret was much worse than michawk by the time i ran into him regularly

sinful anvil
#

and he had wots

#

yeah regret had a huge decline

#

it rly seemed like

stable nymph
#

i just remember him as tank luna n swordfire

sinful anvil
#

the swordfire win ubtton

#

yeah

stable nymph
#

random counters

sinful anvil
#

by the time he was on thta luna swordfire life he was alrdy gone...

#

like i remember him swordfire + luna'ing em in 1v1

#

unironic 100-0 no exaggeration

#

like he tanked and then did it

#

and i still won because nimble + airelinna

#

but i was genuinely confused

#

bc of how bad he was playing neutral and everyting

stable nymph
#

he basicaly had no neutral from wat i remembr

sinful anvil
#

lyep

#

like it was GIGA bad

stable nymph
#

michawk was a stoic wizard

like new player first time elboy bad

weiyan was high tier elboy mechanics with near michawk lv stoic usage which was rly rough to deal with

explode herself trying to meb him

cn cant dash x launch him

#

god wat an awful passive

sinful anvil
#

a classic 4 sure

#

in busted siege era

#

u siege z weiyan against a wall

#

anda ll of a sudden it blows back and hits u in the fce

#

face

#

and then weiyan presses awaken

#

and lunas u

#

LOL

#

tbh

#

the amount of times

#

ive tried to reflect kick

#

meb

#

and failed

#

and just gotten hit for no reason

#

cuz the timing was awkward

#

then they finally made refelct kick super armor

stable nymph
#

did it just time out abd explofe before reaching u

#

o

sinful anvil
#

no i would always mistime it bc i was afraid of being hit and never practiced using reflect kick for actual reflects so wasnt sure about when the reflect frames came up or how long they stayed activ

#

but the intrusive thoughts would win way too often

#

cuz in my head I would imagine

#

"they're running active skill rings, they have MEB llvl +9999, it does a billion dmg, adn if i reflect it it will deal double dmg......"

#

"+ its slow..'

#

i dont thin it ever worked out

#

unless i went and chased down an MEB that had no one near it cuz it already whiffed

#

and then kicked it

#

at the side of map by myself

#

LOL

stable nymph
#

eves wud usually fly higher than meb level too wudnt they

sinful anvil
#

ya

#

also after they nerfed the original reflect kick hitbox to not be insta-activation 360 launhc

#

there was a huge delay on the hitbox bc it was 2 parts to it

#

so if u actually wanted to use it as an 'insta launch' like before, you had to turn ur back to the opponent and once ur foot was touching them, and then press it

#

bc the only "insta" hitbox was behind rena

#

but idt u could reflect

#

from the back

#

so

#

LOL

#

if meb is coming and ur comboing their team mate

#

and u turn to rk launch rip

stable nymph
#

i think weiyan mightv been my lowest wr matchup in like the pre tournament era

sinful anvil
#

LOOOL

#

that's nmad funny

stable nymph
#

of like the actualy good ppl and not like spurt cheese at least

#

weiyan and regret had like saemish gear i think

#

but weiyan actualy played the game

sinful anvil
#

ya

#

weiyan was the only RS

#

pre-house rune

#

he put so much work

#

into developing that rune game

#

i legit dont think i ever saw an rs making use of those runes like weiyan did

#

and then they patched in house rune RS that could literally fly indefintiely ez np

and every1 and their mother picked up rs dya 1
