general

[sweet valve]

Nah, he is, but it is a stupid comparison

[lime ingot]

Then there's no point, if she has a moveset in the game, she's new.

She doesn't play like WW or any other character.
She has a new moveset, new sig perks, her own voicelines, animations, everything, she's a new character.

[sweet valve]

and this is how PFG will justify filler fighters like her and likely Pickle Rick

[lime ingot]

so?
I don't think that matters

[modern jungle]

ya i think nubia was a good fit for the spear niche but they couldve slapped those normals on another character like aquaman

[sweet valve]

It matters if those filler fighters make people even more disinterested in the game

[unreal tulip]

I'll be waiting, my ign is CicalaKid

[sweet valve]

New fighters are a major chunk of why people were watching this game

[lime ingot]

"Man, PFG really made a cool moveset for this character and added it to the game, they'll ruin us at this rate"

[modern jungle]

I think filler characters now and then are fine as long as their overall move set is intersting and fun

[sweet valve]

Okay, so she's cool in your opinion, and that's awesome for you

How many of the players agree? Is Nubia a smashing home run success? Because from what I have heard, no one cared, and the ones who did were annoyed she was taking up a slot

[unreal tulip]

and yet, her trailer was met with complete uninterest and has less views than the Marvin flag teaser during beta...
characters are supposed to be the biggest attraction of the game, and that wasn't one

[sweet valve]

☝️

You can think she's cool, that's fine, but don't try to make the playerbase think that they think she is cool, because most people just don't care

[unreal tulip]

like, they did it to reuse voicelines and an half-baked model from the beta because it was cheaper, there's no mistaking this.

[devout silo]

Question, the arena Perks of extra damage in Bruiser/Mage and Tank/Assassin, does anyone how big that is? Compared to if you have 1 Bruiser and 1 Mage or 2 Tanks in your team?

[sweet valve]

Nubia isn't some fan favorite

[lone trench]

Alright sent

[sweet valve]

☝️ people will justify so much to themselves

it honestly sounds more like they are convincing themselves that they like nubia and think she is worthwhile as a full fighter

[bold brook]

I think it's the same buff but now it can be activated based on what your partner has

[unreal tulip]

you look redder in person : )

[lone trench]

Have to rock this awful Nubia skin 😭

[devout silo]

I see, I did matches where I had 2 Bruisers on my team and the damage/knockback was just insane

[sweet valve]

and like it or not, when people are not interested in a fighter, that hurts the game

at least banana guard interested people, nubia just feels like lazy reuse

[lime ingot]

k

Players that hop on from a character trailer are likely to drop out within a week, regardless of the game's quality.
There is literally a single character that can genuinely create the hype to carry itself and he's not coming for a while

[stark jetty]

We need heavy hitters

Goku
Twighlight sparkle
Miku
Gandalf
Godzilla
Scorpion or subzero

[bold brook]

I'll give this game money again if they add Sonic The Hedgehog or have Sonic as a skin in the game

[sweet valve]

Defending the game by... trashing the marketing. Interesting strategy

At least we agree the marketing sucks

[lime ingot]

Dude, Nubia is just as much content as Batman or Superman, that is the part that matters to the people actually interested in the game.

and in that part, they deliver every single time

[lone trench]

Man I really don’t know how to use shield

[sweet valve]

No, no they didn't, not with Nubia lol, especially not as much as Batman or Superman

[bold brook]

I seen Nubia every other game surprisingly in 2's

[stark jetty]

I don't think the popularity would last but I think goku would bring a lot of people in

[unreal tulip]

there are at least 2 awful things about it XD

[lime ingot]

I'm not going to care if a character is or isn't making a huge splash outwardly to people who otherwise don't care at all about the game.

[sweet valve]

idk what you were going for there but Nubia in no way is as worthwhile as Batman and Superman

I want what you're smoking though

[desert marlin]

can you still parry?

[lime ingot]

She is a new character, she is worth just as much as any other, that is just how it is

[sweet valve]

actually let me correct myself, batman or superman

[lime ingot]

Yes, you can do the parry by pressing down while shielding, or neutral dodging in the air

[zealous finch]

with the new patch, wht is a "dodge attack?"

[stark jetty]

I would even add hello kitty

[sweet valve]

That's not how it works, and you even disagreed with yourself earlier lol

If the interest in characters is what matters, then no character will be equal

[bold brook]

you dodge and do a attack afterwards

[stark jetty]

And Harry potter

[zealous finch]

with the white flash?

[sweet valve]

Some characters will be overhyped, some will get no care at all

[lime ingot]

Dodging, then doing an attack to keep the momentum of the dodge.
Previously it'd take more meter, now it doesn't

[sturdy kite]

Real

[zealous finch]

why did i hear someone say it wont take dodge meter?

[quiet lintel]

Salchipapa

[bold brook]

it used to take up more dodge meter to use dodge attacks and because of sheilds, they removed it to avoid burnout simulator for half the roster

[stark jetty]

Because it was in the patch notes as a mistake lol

[lime ingot]

I never said the interest is what mattered, the character being a hype choice is a bonus, but far from being a requirement.

[zealous finch]

how much did it take before? i thought it was always one meter XD

[sweet valve]

Like I said, I'd even say Banana Guard brought more hype to the game than Nubia even with the hate he brought as well, and he's a joke character based off a background joke character in Adventure Time

[lone trench]

Only 9 😭

[flat breach]

[unreal tulip]

so what's your point?
you can't lose new players in a week if you don't get new players? : )

[sweet valve]

also true lol

[desert marlin]

ty

[sweet valve]

fortnite loses thousands of players monthly, but millions stay

and millions more join, that is how successful games work

[unreal tulip]

@lone trench they got me twice with that Smith teleport follow up, liked that

[sweet valve]

it's how they keep breaking records

[ionic iris]

tbh only good thing with her is that she's so easy she can make noobs feel like pros

[stark jetty]

Fortnite is so confident they display their active player base in all modes lol

[dull shuttle]

Bruh, we´ve got at least 1 banger in every single season. Joker Jason and Smith in season 1? Bangers - Samurai Jack in Season 2? Banger (Beetlejuice was a pretty welcome addition as well ngl) - PPG in season 3? Banger - Raven and Marceline in season 4? Double Bangers. Why are we crying about 1 or 2 characters when we could be focusing on the cool ones?

[lime ingot]

So getting a character that attracts new players ends up being the same as one that doesn't

[lone trench]

That combo was sick. I’m happy it wasn’t me

[zealous finch]

Now im upset i wasnt in experimental lol

[somber pine]

did rick get a new dash?

[stark jetty]

New characters will get people to download the game, but then immediately uninstall when they see fighters road lol

[kind jolt]

Banana Guard

[flat breach]

you forgot one

[zealous finch]

i keep trying to practice with shields. i want ot play like normal, but now i am trying to oncorporate shields nto my game

[unreal tulip]

counterpoint, you said are "likely" to drop, hence some stay, hence the more players you attract the more likely it is to have some that stay

[lime ingot]

They could be given the new character instantly for free and they'd uninstall just as quickly

[zealous finch]

and the shield break attack is throwing me off lol

[sweet valve]

As much of a PPG fan I am, I recognize there are those who also just don't care

[dull shuttle]

Also a banger 😎 👌

[sweet valve]

Pair that with Nubia, someone no one asked for?

[stark jetty]

Mvs is in a lose, lose situation

[sweet valve]

You get an uninteresting season to some, and that is enough to make them lose interest

[zealous finch]

are yall using the shield break attack in yalls combos or regular gameplay now apart from when someone else shields?

[sweet valve]

I'll be honest- I haven't played since mid Season 3

[lime ingot]

Cuz most people don't actually care for the game and instead come here to complain, like the decepticon pfp guy

[sweet valve]

They completely lost my interest and motivation

[somber pine]

yea kinda why i stop playing

i also heard you can sheild spam now so i dont think i even want to play

[lime ingot]

then wtf are you doing here?
You just here to complain and bring everyone else down, just leave already and come back when you regain interest

[sweet valve]

i knew that was coming lol

[bold brook]

to be fair Nubia did harm the game's reputation a bit

[sweet valve]

i literally said earlier i am updating the game, cool your jets

keep your npc responses in check and use em on someone else

[stark jetty]

Oh yeah they should also add optimus prime

[lone trench]

💀

[raven echo]

Duba

[lime ingot]

No she didn't, at most the outside response to Nubia was like "Her?" and then they moved on.
Even within the playerbase, Nubia was more or less considered bottom tier during her release so she didn't make existing players feel worse off.

[sweet valve]

this is part of why the game is like this too, because a lot of the passionate ones that did stay but simply have valid issues with the game get chased off

"why are you still here?" maybe cuz i care about the game? a little too much honestly

[zealous finch]

wish 2 fast 2 blakc broke shields

[lime ingot]

You gotta realize that the people on twitter screaming to add Courage, Mordecai, Rigby, Ben 10, etc are not actually interested in the game.

[flat breach]

banana guard

[lime ingot]

They'll see them being added and still not download or give the game a shot

[raven echo]

You wat 🗿

[sweet valve]

I also don't say the game is dying as some way to dance on the game's future grave, I am honestly pretty depressed at how the game turned out

[fluid mural]

I personally havent even used shields yet, don't even kno the button binding 😮

[desert marlin]

its over

[sweet valve]

It's a reflection of how capitalism is ruining games that we could have all loved

[spiral wadi]

it’s over

[flat breach]

🗿

[lime ingot]

It's not that deep, you just don't like the game

[raven echo]

Am I gona play with a Nana guard in 2s soon. Is that what I'm hearin.

[sweet valve]

If I didn't like it, I wouldn't play it. THAT'S what's not deep about it.

[unreal tulip]

@lone trench lagged on teleport and didn't give me back any aerial option

[lone trench]

Damn a grandmaster.

[sweet valve]

I wouldn't waste my time even thinking about updating and hopping back on

[lime ingot]

You haven't been playing for over a month

[sweet valve]

So you're not allowed to lose interest and take a break and still be a fan? Wow

[lone trench]

All good, I threw on the first life. I went too aggressive

[sweet valve]

Guess I'm not a Fortnite fan either

[unreal tulip]

I'd kick them all if my frames weren't so garbage

[sweet valve]

Despite playing it for years lol, take a month's break and that's it

[raven echo]

I believe

[limber onyx]

This is true

[unreal tulip]

Beetlejuice is a whiffing simulator

[lime ingot]

I take breaks regularly, not playing it when I'm not feeling like it, you don't see me going "Oh, it's so depressing that this game is handled poorly and that PFG are incompetent"

[sweet valve]

Boom, done, you're no longer allowed to enjoy

[lone trench]

So true 💀

[dull shuttle]

As much as many people would love to see those, we can´t deny that variety is one thing this game delivers. For example, I had no idea who Beetlejuice was when he got revealed, but I learned to like him over time.

[sweet valve]

Microsoft should bar me from updating since I took a break too, right?

[limber onyx]

You must play the game every day for three hours minimum

[raven echo]

Sounds like you need a birb stapled too you

[rustic forum]

Since when is there a shield in multiversus????

[lime ingot]

it would be a blessing if you lost access to your computer and/or phone

[raven echo]

Alas, I go eep.

[limber onyx]

Since yesterday

[sweet valve]

Guess who you also don't see "going like this"? Me lol

Everyone, go look up the words "PFG is/are incompetent"

[rustic forum]

They kicked my ass! (I can't say it was the shield's fault, the guy played well)

[grave umbra]

Agent eep

[lime ingot]

I mean

[sweet valve]

Look up both for clarity's sake, this guy is making up hate to make me look worse

[limber onyx]

I saw like one person use shields currently

[sweet valve]

I'm a fan, but also a critic, many people have issues with things they love

It's called not having blind enjoyment and actually having critical thinking

[rustic forum]

But still, I've had enough of everyone being able to quickly direct their attacks in another direction except me

[lime ingot]

Cool, express those criticisms like a normal person

[limber onyx]

Turnaround jabs do annoy me

[rustic forum]

Why I can't redirect my attacks???

[sweet valve]

You're right, I'll stop scrolls up
Criticizing the game. Wait what

[limber onyx]

Also Nubia side special in air being able to turnaround for the second hit is insane

[grave umbra]

True, criticism is another form of love for something. You criticize it because you care and want to see it succeed

[modern jungle]

has anyone found it easier to parry now? dont know if the window got buffed or its because u have to be more intentional w it now u end up hitting it more

[sweet valve]

how do you "criticize like a normal person" if not just chatting in a general chat of a discord for the game?

genuinely asking, what have i done that is so unhinged

what threats did i make, what riots did i start

[rustic forum]

I'd be less upset if I could do them too

[sweet valve]

lmao

just trying to figure out how i am such a hater apparently

meanwhile still playing the game and wishing it wouldn't die

[unreal tulip]

I'm gettin 7 and 9 RP here

[limber onyx]

You should be able to, unless you already buffered the next hit in the same direction

[lone trench]

9 and 10 for me

[lime ingot]

You're acting like a drama queen over Multiversus of all games, just say you aren't into the game's direction

[stark jetty]

Rp is still bad

[limber onyx]

I don’t fully get why I get higher number gains sometimes

[unreal tulip]

the game thinks I'm like a good player or something, as if I learned anything in 900 hours XD

[lone trench]

That’s what makes the move good 😤

[limber onyx]

You agree it’s absurd though right

[fluid chasm]

I gain 3 rp even though I beat another masters

[stark jetty]

[fluid chasm]

I love rp

[stark jetty]

I need a beer

[fluid chasm]

I'll pay for it

[sweet valve]

i'm not even going to explain how this is hypocritical

[limber onyx]

Well I got all the stuff and I have 9000 caps still

[sweet valve]

i'm just going to trust that the people here are smart

[limber onyx]

Bold

[lone trench]

Lmao they died to upair 4 times 😭

[unreal tulip]

that Jack got all Mad Jack on me, even though it was you who killed them XD

[lime ingot]

I'd imagine it has to do with MMR

[unreal tulip]

maybe he was mad at the ! or at the parry

[sweet valve]

actually nvm i will
list one genuine criticism of me you have said that isn't just "oh you're crying, overreacting, being a drama queen" meanwhile being a drama queen over my genuine criticisms

[lone trench]

Dudes gonna lose 19 😭

[limber onyx]

Probably just not super clear

[sweet valve]

also i have been pretty abundantly clear that i don't like a lot of the directions they took

it's how the game ended up this way 😭

i still like the game at it's core though and some of the directions they take

it's not black and white

[lone trench]

29!!!

[unreal tulip]

29!!!

[lone trench]

That dude definitely lost 19 rp

[ionic iris]

does armor break work on shields?

[flat breach]

nope, you'll probably end up playing with a finn or fern

[unreal tulip]

when I manage to not whiff every hit I don't play that bad

I feel like I have the arms of T-Rex

[old imp]

It just does more shield damage

[raven echo]

🗿

[oblique anvil]

I hate this so much.

In the context of MVS, with slow general frame data compared to other platfighters, it's not too bad, but this is straight up infuriating.

[devout silo]

Arena is back and as hype as EVER

That moment when you take your rivals down in Arena, Feels Amazing Dude

[limber onyx]

Why does banana guard downs special prevent like any of my attacks from hitting him what is this

Weirdly super good defensively

[oblique anvil]

You ever try to hit a crying banana?

You can't do it.

[limber onyx]

Unfortunately true

[unreal tulip]

because priority sucks

[limber onyx]

It’s on me for not being less aggro but weird move

[limber onyx]

It doesn’t exist, really wish it did

[oblique anvil]

It's a very strange move, and it feels very odd and out of place.

Idk why it does what it does or why it's so big.

[limber onyx]

Half my complaints would probably go away if this game had a full priority system

Jab being low priority is not enough

[desert marlin]

can you not break tom and jerry trap?

[lone trench]

Why is there like 10 million projectiles on the screen

[lime ingot]

You can shield next to it and it sets off

[cedar wadi]

How do I refund perks? Because I got scammed into getting sturdy dodger at the start of season 4

[unreal tulip]

I wish any of my moves killed, meanwhile Joker gets 2 exploding jokers in a row

[desert marlin]

then how did you detonate it before

[cedar wadi]

made it actually usable, took it out the game, and changed it before I could even use it

[rustic forum]

I always have a problem with raven, massive amounts of objects on the screen hurt me

[lime ingot]

womp womp

[cedar wadi]

legitimately scammed out of perk currency

[rustic forum]

It's like, they've got a million shells and they just run, diad'em, come and fight

[lone trench]

Yea it’s pretty hard with bj. Almost everyone got a crazy kill confirm

[desert marlin]

thats not even how you use that word

[lone trench]

Hopefully bj gets s5 buffs 😭

[cedar wadi]

I'll be shocked if the game lives that long

or past it

[lime ingot]

That's 2 words

[unreal tulip]

I wish I had recorded it today but I couldn't kill a Velma at 140 with neither an uppercut nor the aerial upspecial with beetle I followed it up with

[desert marlin]

its the same word repeated bro how old are you, 15 ?

room temperature iq

[sweet valve]

He's just sore from the last convo after he failed to make me look like a hater and wants a 1 up, just let little bro have it

[unreal tulip]

now, even ignoring how he pulled her back, but why didn't she die on the bomb?
btw that bomb was perfect XD

[fluid chasm]

I wish the content was more engaging

Feels the same as most events

[limber onyx]

Not really sure what they could really do but yeah it could be more interesting

[lone trench]

His kill power is just so weak. You literally won’t kill early unless you get a ladder combo read or something

[fluid chasm]

marvin is so buns

[rustic forum]

Fighting ravens is always difficult for me, they leave their bird in the middle of combat, they always run away and attack from a distance, although I appreciate every time they fight well and actually take the initiative

[lone trench]

Morty pull > reindogs pull 😭

[unreal tulip]

why do I meet only mages with you?

[modern jungle]

ya idk i feel like raven is p cracked now

idk if its a bug or not but her sair eats half of ur meter if u shield it

prob just from the multihit property

[rustic forum]

Right, how do you activate the shield, and why did a new button appear in my settings?

"Shield Breaker Attack" I have all my buttons occupied

What am I supposed to put in?

[limber onyx]

They don’t seem to want to make unique modes for events

[modern jungle]

im ngl man I didnt even see that until now💀

[lone trench]

Both of our weaknesses @unreal tulip

[unreal tulip]

thankfully my coffin breaks grenades

[rustic forum]

Although I accept that it's probably my fault for all those defeats

[lone trench]

Yea

[bold canyon]

If they don't release the Marceline trailer tomorrow at the game awards it's gonna be the biggest missed opportunity ever

[open girder]

fr

[limber onyx]

It’s attack while holding shield if I recall form testing

But I only tested them briefly so I might be remembering wrong

[sonic radish]

Nah shield break is it's own button now. But you can dtilt when holding shield to parry

[limber onyx]

Ah okay

[fluid chasm]

I ain't gonna lie all the comments will be toxic watch

[rustic forum]

The only thing I hate is that it doesn't matter if you put any pressure on the shield, nothing happens, it doesn't get smaller or at least a visual indicator that something is going on

[desert marlin]

where is arya's arya copy from? beta?

[bold canyon]

"dead game" "dead game xd" "nobody cares"

[rustic forum]

Where's my indicator that the shield is breaking?

Also, logically the player should be exposed if they break it!

[sonic radish]

The shield bubble dims to indicate the person has less dodge meter

[gleaming estuary]

Is ffa custom matches broken gor anyone else????

[lime ingot]

Shield is just holding neutral dodge
Shield break attack is shield + attack

[unreal tulip]

36!!!

[rustic forum]

Oh, it's basically a shortcut, it doesn't sound very useful on controller, literally every button is already taken

[lone trench]

Damn that Morty got cheap killed I feel bad

[lone trench]

Same

[unreal tulip]

nah, don't.
They cheap killed me first the second game : )

got an aerial snake in the face

[desert marlin]

the bird finally has textures again

[unreal tulip]

I dont like the visuals of the shields, thats my only complaint

Oh no

[quiet lintel]

Yes

[unreal tulip]

we did it once, we can do it again

[stark jetty]

learn the pokemon mochi mochi dance

[unreal tulip]

why do mages have to kill on an upair at 110 everywhere on the screen?

[limber onyx]

Or 70 below stage if you’re bugs

[quiet lintel]

Sounds like velma early (and also rare) kill confirms

[quiet lintel]

Ohh what is that dance? (: sounds very good

[fallen locust]

I checked on hellland (aka twitter) and some people mad due the shields? Whats in all fighting games?...
Bro

[quiet lintel]

🙄 Yes, bugs

[stark jetty]

I would just youtube it, its kind of like the chicken dance lmao

[fallen locust]

I say i aprove shields

[unreal tulip]

meant Bugs, Morty and Raven in particular

[quiet lintel]

OwO not a Twitter user but I agree with them

[lone trench]

Man I really hate fighting mages

[fallen locust]

[unreal tulip]

we are only getting mages and their friggin obstacle courses

[limber onyx]

I think bugs got toned down a bit and it’s like 80 below the stage up air kill

[quiet lintel]

Oh that sounds very funny ill check it later, Im not losing this new trend

[lone trench]

2 mages = 10 projectiles every second

[lime ingot]

Ever since Shields got added, Betelgeuse stocks have been through the roof. Uptilt OOS is genuinely so good

[stark jetty]

It's actually in pokemon scarlet and violet lmao

[quiet lintel]

All those are stinky, only mage I support are gizmoes

[limber onyx]

Gizmo is also kinda nuts he’s just less used

[unreal tulip]

Just did one on a soup, blocked his upspecial and punched him during landing XD

I’m actually starting to like them. In 2s

[quiet lintel]

Oh so its not new?

[fallen locust]

Ye they not a big deal in 2.s

[lime ingot]

I actually was pretty iffy on shield's implementation, but after actually getting to try them more in real matches, it's genuinely such a healthy addition to the game

[stark jetty]

It was the final dlc for the game

So it isn't old

[quiet lintel]

😔😔😔 Those are just ok for me if the opponents are two tanks, how dangerous

[quiet lintel]

Ohh DLC

[lone trench]

The parries 💀

[compact bolt]

Yall got any ideas on how one would get better at the game?

[unreal tulip]

noticed? 🤣

they could only watch me charge my uppercut

[lone trench]

I’m scared to play 1s with shields tho

[fallen locust]

Im afraid to play 1.s in general

[lone trench]

Yea feeling hopeless

Im actually getting the hang of shields

no i liked it , it was just corny😂

[lone trench]

Nubia is definitely broken in 2s now.

[sleek coyote]

doesn’t her spear grab break shield?

[unreal tulip]

ok then...
My friend says his dog can bring back a stick he throws for 100 miles, but to me it's too far fetched

I simply got disintegrated

there must be some issue with that corner collision, like it used to be in Scooby mansion

[unborn tapir]

Anybody have any tips on kill confirms/reliable setups for closing stocks on Betelgeuse? I've got neutral largely down and can rack up solid damage with combos but feel like I'm relying on reads more than anything else to finish after

Only a couple days back in on playing so anything helps

[lone trench]

Nice follow up

[unreal tulip]

nice set up

[hybrid frost]

Why is all y’all Multiversus players so fascinating bruh 😤🤍🤍

[thorn blade]

LOL no

[lime ingot]

You straight up have no good ones.
Your best bet is genuinely bait someone into bomb at 100 damage

[tight axle]

lol yes

[thorn blade]

Shields are fine.

[unreal tulip]

Puss gets the boot

[unborn tapir]

Oof. Getting folks to that state isn't too hard and he does have a good fistful of moves that can close out a stock by themselves, that's rough if true

[lament zenith]

Today multiversus is not playable bruh+

[sleek coyote]

[unreal tulip]

it's the name of the first T&J short, just in case : )

[unborn tapir]

I figured there may be something ending in a charged neutral special though

[lime ingot]

Don't use neutral special, it's not great

[unborn tapir]

It's felt stubby, yeah

[lone trench]

Yea I used to watch puss in boots. They should add him to multiversus

[unreal tulip]

if you figure out something, let me know : )
so far my best bets are uppercuts, every now and then a bomb

[lone trench]

Best swords characters^

[tight axle]

REMOVE SHIELDS

[sleek coyote]

yesssss

[lime ingot]

go to the Betelgeuse channel tho, we can talk better there @unborn tapir

[unborn tapir]

Didn't know there was one, thanks

@unreal tulip this will be my last game

[unreal tulip]

switching to rivals forever?

[lone trench]

No, I mean of ranked 2s 💀

[unreal tulip]

of course, thanks for the company

we aren't that bad of a team : )

[lone trench]

It was fun, thanks

[lone trench]

Yea fr NUBIA and Betelgeuse is perfect combination

[unreal tulip]

I'd argue we'd probably net more results with some dumb team like WW and Shaggy XD

[iron silo]

CICALA WORKING WITH A NUBIA PLAYER?

[lone trench]

true, metachaser team

Unspoken of.

#general message
But at the end of the day I think demo is a friend : )

[limber onyx]

He tossed aside his principles

For a few ranked points

[unreal tulip]

I have to keep the sinners close to me if I want to show them the right way 🙏

[dawn cloak]

I’m coming back to multiversus after couple months and I used to main black Adam but did they remove the clap move from black Adam???

[unreal tulip]

nope, he's still clapping

[unreal tulip]

I'm available, ign is, wait for it, you probably guessed it: CicalaKid

[limber onyx]

Peak covering for your misdeeds

[dawn cloak]

Idk if ur tryna be sarcastic or not :/

[unreal tulip]

I just wanted to say it in the weirdest possible way XD
But really, he still has the clap neutral air

[lime ingot]

1 sec, closing up a match

[dawn cloak]

Oh lol but somehow I can’t use it for some reason

[unreal tulip]

did you try pressing R1 (or similar) in the air? maybe you are also moving and it does side attacks

[dawn cloak]

Did they change it from like 3-4 months back?

[unreal tulip]

nope, he actually got little changes from beta to now.
only thing missing is that magnet thingy he had

[dawn cloak]

When I jump and press R1 it does nothing

[unreal tulip]

weird, check the key bindings, R1 should be set to "neutral attack"

[dawn cloak]

@unreal tulip what’s the moves name so I can see in controller settings and hopefully change it

[quiet lintel]

Try to read (predict) your opponents moves so you can attack first, and also watch out with peeople that are on the ground, then go backwards and the foward to fool you and attack you in your whiff 👺👺 I hate those

[dawn cloak]

Ty 🙏

[quiet lintel]

No thank you ✨

[unreal tulip]

I thin it's Thunderclap, if my translation is correct

[finite blade]

Who’s the next character

[unreal tulip]

Marceline

[lime ingot]

sent you a FR @unreal tulip

[unreal tulip]

there you are

[sonic radish]

anybody else notice when you use raven, if you still have a side direction partially inputted and you hit your neutral dodge, she does a side dodge instead of nuetral dodge/shield? it only happens when on the ground, and means i gotta be at a 100% standstill to shield

[lime ingot]

you wanna do ranked or regular matches?

[unreal tulip]

let's start with a regular

[dawn cloak]

Yesss it is and u fixed my problem it was set on a different bind

[flat breach]

🗿

[compact bolt]

@quiet lintel ah so the bait and punish tactic, is edge guarding viable,or just strong hit go wheee lol

[fierce drum]

i have such a deep hatred for shaggy and WW

[grave umbra]

Regular show

[unreal tulip]

why must it be so hard to kill a WW? XD

[lime ingot]

WW be WW

[unborn tapir]

I feel like I see a ton of her since coming back in, and that's she's significantly better than when I last played

[unreal tulip]

🫸⚡🫷

[wispy grail]

wt f are shields bro

[unborn tapir]

They shield you

[wispy grail]

it should never have existed

[unborn tapir]

It's more shocking that the game released without them tbh

[limber onyx]

I have yet to have anyone use them

(Okay one person in like 20 2v2 Games)

[drowsy hill]

I thank PFG for adding shields

[unborn tapir]

How recent of an addition are they?

[lime ingot]

yesterday

[unborn tapir]

Oh, that recent

[unreal tulip]

close one there, now Jokers all spam the acid

[unborn tapir]

I legit started using them and thought I just was doing something wrong before I found the input lmao

[sonic radish]

theyve been testing them on thursdays, but yesterday was the first time they wre fully implemented

[lime ingot]

I never realized the move had a hitbox btw, I thought all it did was apply burned

[dawn cloak]

I wish I could clap cheeks like black Adam😔

[lime ingot]

it wasn't until S4 that I saw people actually hit with it

[unborn tapir]

Are there any universal cancels out of shield, like upsmash/special in smash bros?

[limber onyx]

That’s like one of his next moves

[unreal tulip]

also blocks projectiles since it's armor breaking

[raven goblet]

They added a hitbox in like S1

[lime ingot]

Not really, but for Betelgeuse, uptilt is your best OOS option

[unborn tapir]

Noted 👍

[raven goblet]

Dodge but you can’t attack out of shield however if you input an attack while shielding that attack will break shield

[sonic radish]

and if you dtilt out of shield, you parry

[raven goblet]

👆👆👆

[raw rose]

What is so special about elusive variants?

[sonic radish]

they need to add more tutorials, but i get thats probably lower priority for the devs

[raven goblet]

People wouldn’t use it anyway

[lime ingot]

You can only get them during events and either never return or only return sparingly

[unreal tulip]

if you wanna move to ranked, we could try : )

[lime ingot]

Sick, after this one

[flat breach]

at this point they're just making all would-be legendary variants into elusive variants

that way they don't give as much prestige, and can choose when to re-run them

[quiet lintel]

Yes! That one, beware of your opponents doing that to you when you approach to them, edge guarding is only viable if your opponent doesnt have an attack with a very long or really spacious hitboxes, examples: jakes, harleys, garnets, Sam jacks, Stevens neutral air attack; its ok to edge guarding them but just if they have more than 95% of damage

both are good

Ain't that comparing apples to oranges?

Multiversus
It's not even the same genre

I'm more of an oranges person

the peel is the best part

That's how we deal with Ravens

They wanna turn their brain off for their Sairs?

a special praise to that idiot nubia who only spammed stretching spear

I need to know how

A raven was trying to Sair me on ledge, I just did Lebron pass, bounced it off the wall and killed her

[sturdy kite]

These ravens are EXTREMELY annoying

if there is a basketball anywhere in the map, I grab it XD

It's wrth it ngl

it goes with your up or down input

Okay @unreal tulip
Just get the Taz

[dreamy zodiac]

[unreal tulip]

neither the beetle nor the door hit him off dogpile

you get giant

[worn ferry]

Jason mains when I pull out the chalk bomb:

[unreal tulip]

didn't manage to get a single pass with all that garbage going on

[worn ferry]

GJ Taz player

[unreal tulip]

nice dunk : )

[flat jewel]

am I the only one that doesn’t like this shield thing? like I can still win without it but they keep adding stuff that makes it more annoying to play offense

[digital heron]

game is so much mroe campy now as if that was even possible

[flat jewel]

exactly, I hope they do something to compensate for it soon because everyone in ranked is literally spamming it

[worn ferry]

What did you do w Riley's dreads

[lime ingot]

Shield literally helps you on the offense and counters campiness. You're just not good with it

[unborn tapir]

You aren't alone, though I'm definitely a fan. Offense felt really free before I took a break

[limber onyx]

Why does no one I play against use them

[flat jewel]

I don’t use it. I don’t see the point in a game where you jump, dodge, and parry. and like I said, I win without it, its just annoying, stop dr

[digital heron]

fr that guy been in here defending shields w his whole life and honor 😭

[unborn tapir]

Shields are cool though

[digital heron]

it's ass end of the story bruh

[unreal tulip]

dude

[lime ingot]

Well, there's your issue

[unborn tapir]

What's so bad about it that makes you think that??

Genuine ask, it's felt like a positive change on my end

[lime ingot]

They don't know how to fight them, so they assume it's campy

[unreal tulip]

keep the discussion for later, don't wanna see another 2 deaths before my first one

[flat breach]

womp womp hows the shields guys?

[dreamy zodiac]

They're new

[flat jewel]

if you’re sitting still waiting for someone to hit you and you’re doing that the entire game, what does that mean?

[lime ingot]

That you suck at the game

[digital heron]

it removes all skill expressions cus now you can just camp and punish for a free win especially in 1s this medium smoke only plays 2 and is def ass at the game 😭

[flat jewel]

Lol okay

[digital heron]

other bro thinks hes good at the game lol

[unborn tapir]

I wouldn't go that far, it's just tempo displacement. It's like parry but not nearly as great ime, and I've only been playing 1s

[fierce drum]

is anyone on like a high rank willing to play a custom match???? and give me some advice or sm??

[unreal tulip]

I'm losing all my progress of today here

[digital heron]

nah imo ive been getting free kills by just shielding peoples attacks and punishing even tho sometimes when i block an attack with shield and try to punish them i cant cus theres absolutely no whiff in this game 😭

[flat jewel]

like wtf😭😂😂😂

[unborn tapir]

Oh I absolutely believe that, but it's also worth keeping in mind that this game hasn't had them until literally yesterday. I've noticed that things like jab don't get the same frame data on shield vs on hit and that alone is going to throw a lot of people off

People will adjust, I can't imagine otherwise 🤷

[fierce drum]

only think i dislike about shields is them sharing button with dodge

id appreciate to be able to change the input of shields

[flat breach]

guess you don't like shields either?

[weary jungle]

WHO wants to help me get 500 party games ?

[fierce drum]

could you help me quickly do a custom match??? id be down to help

[weary jungle]

Custom ?

[fierce drum]

just a 1v1 match but like us, i need that mission

[lime ingot]

Cicala, gotta stop running into the shaggy

[unreal tulip]

you even have the nerve to blame me?

[worn ferry]

I changed my mind about shields. If you spam shield button with Beetle Juice it looks like he's pelvic thrusting over and over again. Shields are great!

[inner lion]

i’m tryna get my raven to diamond 😓

[unborn tapir]

Unintended buffs right there

[weary jungle]

Sure

[fierce drum]

i send you a request

[cold lantern]

Remove shields

[vagrant thunder]

Time to try for masters again. Will I rank up or lose everything for the 50th time.

[cold lantern]

Nobody likes them

[inner lion]

yall just gotta play shields like it’s smash

they said they wanna speed the game up but shields definitely slows it down

[unborn tapir]

I like them 😞

[worn ferry]

It's REALLY funny

[sonic radish]

idk man, i love shields so far. gives more options against projectiles and multihits

[unreal tulip]

is it time for the most anticipated team-up?

[tacit bear]

Just got Marvin today. Is he any good?

[sonic radish]

it also makes it easier to hit certain grabs like jason sleeping bag if you bait

[flat breach]

no way! we're getting we bare bears in MVS?

[unreal tulip]

Yogi vs Fozzie vs We Bare Bears vs Freddy Fazbear

[cold lantern]

It does not fit in a game like multiversus

[rain hatch]

Because you said so

[cold lantern]

Next they finna give characters grabs

[vagrant thunder]

Sure.

[flat breach]

LEEEGEENNNNNNDAAARRRRYYY! 🔥

[vagrant thunder]

And the fact that anyone still playing this game think anyone cares about your salt emojis anymore is just amusing.

[sleek coyote]

👀

[unreal tulip]

the ign is, wait for it... CicalaKid

[unreal tulip]

[worn ferry]

With Beetlejuice belly shield animation spam I can finally take my tbagging to the next level 🥹

[vagrant thunder]

Sorry in advanced for giving you my horrible luck.

We're gonna lose all RP.

[unreal tulip]

I already got the horrible luck of my previous mate XD

[vagrant thunder]

It just said game quality may be variable.

Am I going to lag?

[unreal tulip]

wanna test on unranked?

[vagrant thunder]

Yeah.

[fallen pecan]

I hate how if you hold neutral dodge while doing an airwalker combo, it will do a dodge attack 😐

[cold lantern]

Game is too floaty for that

[flat breach]

@worn ferry well hello there

[sonic radish]

i will say using shields is interfering with the usual way i move. so i think my movements just gonna be a little more predictable until i adapt

but that doesnt mean shields are bad for the game. just used to playing a little differently

[vagrant thunder]

Played fine, I think we'll be okay.

[unreal tulip]

let's try

[inner lion]

what rank are you guys?

[vagrant thunder]

I'm diamond 1 right now. At risk of deranking though.

[unreal tulip]

remember, sharing (armor) is caring

[worn ferry]

Guh huh?

[inner lion]

who are you playing

[vagrant thunder]

I will try. I try to do it when you're not getting hit, so I don't get hit with you.

[vagrant thunder]

WW.

[unreal tulip]

Beetlejuice

Beetlejuice

[waxen mason]

so tried out the new patch
yeah, I think its over. I can no longer fight against the campversus

[vagrant thunder]

Thinking about removing this grey health perk now. It's not as good anymore.

[unreal tulip]

stacking is sure not worth it

[inner lion]

are you playing 2s or 1s

[waxen mason]

its literally who holds shield the longest wins

if you approach you die

[worn ferry]

what are you doin on my team bear

[sonic radish]

bait them, burn out dodge meter or shield break. or grab if you got grabs

[flat breach]

what are YOU doing on my team taz?

[waxen mason]

remember when in any other game where being forced to block was actually disadvantage

[obtuse berry]

love how all their talk about shields making the game more fast pace did nothing but solidify campversus

[worn ferry]

This is why your last game was Nuts n Bolts

[vagrant thunder]

This is exactly what I expected.

[flat breach]

this is also why you became bug's pet in that one looney toons show

[unreal tulip]

it's the entire day I only fight mages

"but shields made them so much bearable..."

[vagrant thunder]

My entire day is just losing all my RP. I'm not putting myself through that today. I will stop playing m

My entire day is just losing all my RP. I'm not putting myself through that today. I will stop playing.

[inner lion]

yo i have so many caps i can’t turn into diplomas wtf

[fierce merlin]

Bro he got you good

[raven goblet]

You never told me who’s there …..

[waxen mason]

my shield break has no range, My character has no grabs. all i can do is dance anround them tho hopefully scare them or do a setup with my cooldown to break their shield. is all this waiting worth it just to have 1 moment to where I can be offensive just for it to go back to camping with shields again?

[worn ferry]

I did been savin that one🥰

[waxen mason]

like at least before armor breaking moves got rid of shields, now there is hardly any counterplay other than to wait

[unreal tulip]

get away from the blackboard, Bart

[regal blade]

I swear to god give me one more teammmate that doesn’t know how to dodge

[flat breach]

I keep trying to parry on accident lol

[worn ferry]

Jokes on you I'm into that

[regal blade]

God forgive for how I’m gonna crash out if I get one more scrub ass bum on my team

[sonic radish]

what character are you playing?

[waxen mason]

shielding is the correct answer. sitting there is how you win. this is no longer a game about execution, patience, and smarts. its just patience, its no longer a platform fighter, fighting game or whatever you wanna call it, its a waiting game now.

[waxen mason]

steven

[worn ferry]

well that was easy

[flat breach]

people don't seem to use shields much huh

I keep expecting it but it doesn't happen

[worn ferry]

I prefer dodging

[fierce merlin]

I'm pretty sure he was bugs Bunny's pet in there or he was his pet inside the superhero one

[waxen mason]

they want me to sit there and camp with my healing, I have been trying so hard to be offensive even if i was one of the only one to do so. even with a character everyone thinks is just campy and lame

[sonic radish]

oh wow, stevens shield break sucks, lol. they should probably give him better options

[vagrant thunder]

See. Of course I get cheesed.

Haha deranked.

[unreal tulip]

dang, we were winning though, you could have given me armor and let me contest down there

[calm river]

i think its bc its a very fast paced game. you dont really have time to stop moving and dodge/shield when doing a side dodge is infinitely more viable (you move, you get away, and you can immediately get back to attacking)

[marsh vortex]

How are they doing seasons now? Marceline comes out next week but season 4 ends the same time

[vagrant thunder]

Oh well, on to the next loss.

[sonic radish]

you just gotta fastfall next to your opponent and shieldbreak over and over. atleast it hits behind him, lol

[vagrant thunder]

I can't wait to have to fill up my entire bar again.

[calm river]

season 4 doesnt end then. just the first battlepass. the second half of season 4 starts next week with a new battlepass alongside it

[marsh vortex]

Bro Idk why they changed the bp setup

And the fighter road bs

[fierce merlin]

I think it depends on what character you're playing. I mean Beetlejuice and the shield is actually pretty Good for starting combos

[vagrant thunder]

Long queue times, trying real hard to find the best people to derank me.

[regal blade]

I gotta double team slam dunk in one combo for the KO as lebron lmao

[sonic radish]

they changed the battlepass cause its holiday season. they never mentioned if its a permanent change tho. hopefully it goes back to one pb after this

[flat breach]

that match was so laggy

[worn ferry]

evil ppg main

[vagrant thunder]

@unreal tulip remind me to change this grey health perk next match. I keep forgetting.

[regal blade]

It gives xp at the final rewards sometimes that’s so stupid

[marsh vortex]

I doubt they’ll change it back

[unreal tulip]

sure, I have a steel trap

[worn ferry]

It didn't lag for me

[warm holly]

[flat breach]

hmm wonder if my connection is goofing

[sonic radish]

the big thing for me is 5 weeks for this half season is too long. like there wasnt enough content to fill it up

[thorn blade]

Anyone have a good and fast way to grind fighter road xp?

[waxen mason]

they can just do their thing first, I loose if they sit there and shield, unless i do the same. its the new smash 4 except without the complexity of what made shields optimal in that game. multiversus is so watered down, whoever disengages the most wins. whoopie, glad it was this game i chose to love for years just for it to be spat in my face until today where its an ocean I drown in..

[regal blade]

The devs gotta stop making new maps🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[unreal tulip]

Ah-yuck!

[regal blade]

On the new dojo map I fall right through the bridge and die

[worn ferry]

they kept bumpin my shield off stage lmao

[vagrant thunder]

😐

[worn ferry]

You ok?

[unreal tulip]

what the heck was that bs? Batman kicked me from behind while I was hitting him with the coffin!

[vagrant thunder]

Hitboxes are fixed man.

[vagrant thunder]

I won't be in a second.

[unreal tulip]

priority is perfect, no room for improvement

[elder sentinel]

My character has gotten stuck on the corner of the ledge of that map a few times. Like literally can't move or do anything until the opponent hits me

[regal blade]

Same like these devs gotta stop making all these dumb ass maps!

I get it’s casual play but damn add some sort of experimental matchmaking before you add all the stupid maps that kill the players

[flat breach]

don't yuck my yum

[vagrant thunder]

I'm getting convinced that Velma's van is unfair.

[unreal tulip]

come on... it didn't register my dodge and issued that idiotic dash

[worn ferry]

armor killer time

[vagrant thunder]

I wasn't even high damage and it's impossible to mash out of.

[vagrant thunder]

If I lose again, I'm done.

Not doing this today.

[unreal tulip]

no, a last one

[vagrant thunder]

Not a out to have a potential heart attack by stressing over this endless loop I'm stuck in.

I just needed a couple of wins, but something always happens to take it away.

[unreal tulip]

forgot to tell you to change perk :P

[vagrant thunder]

And I forgot to change my perk again.

[unreal tulip]

but the issue at hand was more pressing

ah, cool, desynced

[bold brook]

I find it a bit ironic Taz can easily eat sheilds with his side special. use it when it's around half and it's gone

[unreal tulip]

now you may change your perk : )

[vagrant thunder]

I changed it.

I'm also going to say that they should probably just implement smash bros grabbing at this point.

[rain hatch]

This game gets super boring thanks to campers, I don't even wanna reach platinum which was my safe ELO easy to get up to, now I don't even wanna go out of bronce, y'all play too stupid running away

[unreal tulip]

some characters have an unfair advantage simply by having a better jab3

[vagrant thunder]

Some characters can just grab you out of shields, while others can't. Not very fair to the other characters.

[unreal tulip]

I've got grabbed out of the shield by a nubia offstage while she abused that terrible ledge corner collision

[bold brook]

Some people do want a universal grab system since only a couple have them that are decent

[worn ferry]

i hate that map its so eassy to camp there

[flat breach]

did the netcode get worse? I get random jitters

[worn ferry]

still good on my end

[sweet gorge]

is the new battlepass out

i havent played this game in a week so i wouldnt know

[bold brook]

it's not out yet

[sweet gorge]

shame

[idle arch]

Does this game legit NOT allow it's players to purchase battle pass tier skips? That is appalling. All games now-a-days include both a battle pass and battle pass with tier skips, however, they all also allow you to individually purchase tier skips. For some insane reason that's beyond me, this game does not have this feature, which would do nothing but create an opportunity for them to make more money. End Rant. Thanks for the time, folks!

[sleek coyote]

we do have skips for tiers?

[vagrant thunder]

Might as well add it since they made grabs invalid against people with grabs.

[unreal tulip]

nothing too difficult, we just had to do a total of 860 damage

[vagrant thunder]

💀

Both heavy fighters.

[flat breach]

my connection is definitely goofing

[idle arch]

Send me location? lol

[unreal tulip]

my connection is donalding

[sleek coyote]

go into the bp section and theres a big pink bar that says buy tiers? if thats what youre asking for

[worn ferry]

this guy

I'm gonna destroy him

[fierce drum]

hows everyone going with fighters road??

[idle arch]

I'm looking at the pass, no option to individually tier skip purchase?

[vagrant thunder]

Two mages.

Again.

[unreal tulip]

shields up : )

[wet root]

Finished it a while ago

[sleek coyote]

hang on

[idle arch]

The pink rectangle picture allows me to purchase battle pass or purchase combination of battle pass and 10 tier skips. No third option to just buy individual tiers.

I shouldn't need to own the pass in order to pay to tier skip the free ones...

[wet root]

Once you own the pass you can buy tiers

[idle arch]

Should just be something like spend 100 or 200 currency, move to next tier

[sleek coyote]

ohhhh i see what you’re saying now I thought you meant we don’t have it in general

[idle arch]

^^^ this is the insane part

[worn ferry]

ggs

[flat breach]

gg

[idle arch]

Well... from my perspective... you don't. LMAO

[fierce drum]

im still 11 fighters behind

[idle arch]

All good just an insane system that only stops a flow of more currency to the Devs hands. ✋️

[unreal tulip]

I spend a fight moving through a projectiles obstacle course to reach them and whiff anyway because my hitboxes are garbage

[idle arch]

I don't want the pass, I just want a free banner from it, and was willing to pay for tier skips to get there (cheaper than just buying pass). There being no option for this... that's just lost money for the game. Oh well. Back to the grind.

[fierce drum]

i dont think ill be able to even get marcy until like 3 weeks after her release

[fallen coyote]

Velma with increased ammo and lesser cooldowns dominates any arena

[sleek coyote]

what game lets you skip free tiers? i usually dont buy tiers so im new to that concept

[sleek coyote]

Marvin solos 🤓

[fallen coyote]

[fierce drum]

you can skip tiers tho

[fallen coyote]

You're lucky you're cute, Ino

[sleek coyote]

no he means skip the FREE tiers

[fierce drum]

you can im pretty sure

[vagrant thunder]

This is what fun is. Fighting a screen full of projectiles. :3

[tropic wasp]

are elusives better than legendaries ?

[sleek coyote]

ill put a mask on and still say Marvin solos I DONT WANT PEACE I WANT PROBLEMS!!! 👹

[fallen coyote]

LMAO
OKAY GO AHEAD AND SPAM UP-TILT THEN CALL YOURSELF GOOD

[idle arch]

Not without buying the pass. There is no tier skips "in general", there are tier skips behind the battle pass paywall lol

[vagrant thunder]

That Velma was just floating everywhere sending out bubbles.

[fallen coyote]

Hi Megan :3

[idle arch]

And you wouldn't just skip free tiers, you would have to pay to skip each tier you went through but would only get the free option since pass not owned.

[fierce drum]

oh, didnt know that, PFG usual behaviour

[sonic radish]

legendaries usually have the most effort in them and usually a unique VO. elusives seem to be the same thing but usually wont return to the shop

like rank skins after the season ends for example. you miss it, its gone

actually rank skins dont even have high effort tbh

[fierce drum]

only good one is Raven masters skin

even then its just a recolor, they just chose better colors for that one

[vagrant thunder]

...

[vagrant thunder]

Hello.

[sleek coyote]

depends. if you mean style wise imo no. elusives (aside from ranked skins) have chances of coming back

[fierce drum]

imma be honest rank skins are ugly AF

[vagrant thunder]

I'm gonna be at this forever.

[sleek coyote]

on GOD

[twin bloom]

Just when I thought this game couldn't get worse, they introduce this random half-baked shield patch 😂

[fierce drum]

literally the only interesting one is Raven masters

[unreal tulip]

Rick makes no sense, slippery, never runs out of projectiles, has unreasonably good melee on top of the zoning...

[sleek coyote]

everything ugly until they give me Harley ranked skins

[fierce drum]

her other rank skins are so mediocre as well

[vagrant thunder]

Seriously NEVER going to reach masters.

[vagrant thunder]

His rocket skis are stupid as well.

[fierce drum]

they should give every character ranked skins tbh

[unreal tulip]

even if you shield him, he goes past you and my jab is garbage

[fierce drum]

its not like they need much money or effort to make them

[sonic radish]

i dont know why they make the characters skin bronze/gold/zilver ect instead of making metal on variants that color

[fierce drum]

they are literally just glorified recolors

[sonic radish]

like give me a skin with a decked out crown, maybe some effects coming off

[sleek coyote]

literally. idk why we started off with Jack ranked skins

[fierce drum]

i cant decide if his or PPG were uglier, both looked bad

bubbles rank skin looked like she had a voldemort nose, instead of a mouth

[sleek coyote]

ppg just look like polished rocks icl

[fierce drum]

they fixed that after like a month

[sleek coyote]

im so-so with how jacks skin looks. they’re alright

[fierce drum]

on god, only reason raven masters is decent is the gold pattern on her costume

she just looks like an avatar otherwise

[sleek coyote]

💀💀

[sonic radish]

samurai jack plat skin looks alright just cause its monotone

[vagrant thunder]

Of course l! Lmao

[fierce drum]

and the other skins are just the usual character recolor

[vagrant thunder]

I'm sick of this. This is my last game if we lose.

[grave umbra]

Masters jack looks sick with the flowing clouds on his robe

[unreal tulip]

try sharing that armopr more often, I make entire lives without it.
keep it on CD

[vagrant thunder]

Ranked makes me hate this game with so much passion.

[vagrant thunder]

It tried and kept getting hit dude.

[sleek coyote]

you were supposed to be taking a break you know

[sonic radish]

i havent played much ranked this season cause im not a fan of the balances overall. not gonna put myself through it for no reason

[fierce drum]

never take it this seriously, your just ruining your experience w this game

[sleek coyote]

i was fine till i seen shields come in. i dont mind them its just unfair some chars have grab while others dont

[proven cloak]

Ong no cap

[sleek coyote]

wasnt your name a diff color last night?

[proven cloak]

But i hit diamond 2 yesterday and im halfway to D1

[fierce drum]

the fact i can´t assign another input to shields is my only complaint

personally they sharing input with dodge is so awkward and weird

[fallen pecan]

you can assign another input with neutral dodge, close enough

[proven cloak]

It was. I got kicked for my name. Even after it was ping able

[sleek coyote]

ooo yeah i seen someone else getting upset about that as well. we’re cooked

[sleek coyote]

????? i thought you changed it wym kicked😭

[fierce drum]

and ill predict its as close as we´ll get to that ever

[unreal tulip]

they just won't die

[vagrant thunder]

I just wanna be done with this stupid mode...

[unreal tulip]

I can survive only for that long

[proven cloak]

I got kicked. Someone kicked for the name. Idk nothing else but that. So i just changed it again

[fierce drum]

btw am i alone on a deep burning hatred moves that have built-in shield???

[celest herald]

What rank are you?

[fierce drum]

you grinding for the rank skins???

[vagrant thunder]

I was freaking diamond 1, but of course I deranked. Lmao.

[unreal tulip]

I've lost 3% WR and a full rank between that lebron dude and now

[vagrant thunder]

Now I'll derank back to diamond 3 soon

[celest herald]

Damn. 1s or 2s?

[ripe solar]

Not sure how I feel about the Shields yet. Definitely slowing game play

[proven cloak]

My friend had the same thing happened. He ran into only grandmasters😭

[fierce drum]

like why does wonder woman have like 2 moves that are practically unpunishable

[vagrant thunder]

Yes, never again. I can't stand it anymore. Ranked is such garbage.

[fierce drum]

i dodge and want to attack, and the h03 got a shield

[fierce drum]

it is, i gave up on that ranked masters raven, now im barely striving for platinum

i chose my mental health over a recolor

[proven cloak]

I could easily help u get into plat

[flat breach]

playing beetlejuice is like playing the golf mini game, miss every time

[sonic radish]

ranked lasts until end of next bp, no? thats why im not rushing for it now tbh

[fierce drum]

ur talking to megan right??

[fierce drum]

yeah, it says it ends in like 55 days

[proven cloak]

I was talking u☠️

[flat breach]

reject ranked return to rivals

[fierce drum]

ooh sorry LMAOOO, i mean id appreciate it

[sleek coyote]

i hope i catch yall and become the source of your losses 🙏🏽

[flat jewel]

Arya so damn busted😭😭😭😭😭

[unreal tulip]

it's a whiff simulator

[proven cloak]

This is insane work😭

[vagrant thunder]

This is what I mean @unreal tulip . I tried to share the armor but the startup gets me hit and killed all the time.

[fierce drum]

id play rivals if my laptop could even take that game

[flat breach]

lol whiff simulator

[proven cloak]

Just let me know when u on G.

[vagrant thunder]

I'm done playing. I can't do this anymore.

After this loss I'm off.

[fierce drum]

let me add you, sometimes my wifi acts funny

so i dont have a set time, just when my wifi´s fast

[celest herald]

I’ll help u

[spare zephyr]

@elfin socket omg ggs

[proven cloak]

I'll send my tag in a sec

[fierce drum]

damn i have all trophies in MVS, might be time to start reconsidering my life

[twin bloom]

Damn they absolutely butchered Jason LMAO. Any monkey can get to master on Jason spamming his air grab

[vagrant thunder]

You'll just lose all your progress with my horrible luck.

[fierce drum]

his buff alongside shields kinda made him a beast

[celest herald]

I’ve got Joker in masters. But I could play another character.

[vagrant thunder]

Yeah I'm done.

[unreal tulip]

let me pick a dumber character

[sturdy kite]

That's why I cook them everytime they are just annoying.

[sharp moon]

I have no idea how to do that jab combo with the pogo stick

[proven cloak]

That winning streak is coming

[unreal tulip]

so you get more points

[vagrant thunder]

What's the point of sheilding if Nubia can just go straight through it. Doesn't make sense that I am 2inches away and a spear that's 3 ft behind me still hits me. Plus you can't even save your teammate from it because the kick hits ALL around her.

[elfin basin]

chandelure is so good

[vagrant thunder]

Trust me, it's not coming.

[limber onyx]

They added chandelure to the game?

[unreal tulip]

it's complete garbage.
plus her sair killed me from the center of the stage and I still couldn't kill her with my best aerial options at 120

[proven cloak]

U get stronger with every loss.

[elfin basin]

yeah

[unreal tulip]

I only get lower on RPs and my frames aren't improving

[limber onyx]

Sick

[vagrant thunder]

I get closer to uninstalling with every loss.

[flat breach]

rip, thinking of getting an upgrade?

[proven cloak]

Honestly so real

[fierce drum]

this one was the upgrade LMAOOO

[flat breach]

damn what'd you get?

[fierce drum]

plus the current economy is terrible, getting a gamer PC would be going bankrupt

[fierce drum]

gateaway laptop

[sleek coyote]

😯 another joker main. what number joker are you?

[vagrant thunder]

That match was everyone but me cheesing each other.

[unreal tulip]

of course I had to meet Arya as Jason and she can combo me truly in the air, geez, your luck sucks

[elfin basin]

he got a will o wisp move that burns an enemy the whole game

[vagrant thunder]

Perhaps we can try another time. After I get off with cicala, this game doesn't exist for me until tomorrow.

[celest herald]

Last I checked it was #16

It was #12 at one point, but I haven’t been playing much lately. 😬

[flat breach]

oh damn thats a notebook

[sleek coyote]

still good placement

[sleek coyote]

hiiii ❤️‍🔥

[fierce drum]

yeah, even multi goes laggy at max graphics

[raven goblet]

Where are you Christmas

[flat breach]

I'd keep an eye on the steam deck for the holiday deals

[naive thicket]

Honestly I would just suggest to not take this game that seriously. Even the top levels don't really and just laugh at the game. If you win, you win, but if not, it's not the end of the world.

[vagrant thunder]

Can I leave now?

[unreal tulip]

yes, I'm beyond sick of this garbage

[raven goblet]

Cicala doesn’t even play with me

[proven cloak]

It be like that

[fierce drum]

issue is my country doesnt allow outside purchases, only in here

[fluid chasm]

Iron giant in doubles lags the game

[celest herald]

I always just stop playing at masters v haha

[vagrant thunder]

That was a grandmaster stripe LMAO.

[fierce drum]

you cant use visa or paypal. any foreign type of payment

[raven goblet]

That’s a sign to go

[vagrant thunder]

Arya was master 1.

[elfin basin]

hiii

[raven goblet]

Close the software

[naive thicket]

There was a time where I took platform fighters too seriously, but now I just put that energy towards things that are more important and just play these games for fun. The only reason I play this game over rivals 2 is because this one is a lot more casual.

[elfin basin]

i have no one to tell this to but my chandelure won me my pokémon game

[raven goblet]

I’m upset and I’m not even playing….

[sleek coyote]

was it potato? 👀

[vagrant thunder]

The only reason I'm upset is because I HATE RANKED. I just want the skins, but the universe wants me to suffer in this god forsaken excuse for a mode.

[unreal tulip]

since when I played with that weak dude I've lost all my progress of the day

[fierce drum]

rank becomes way less insufferable when you just play for fun and not to rank up

[flat breach]

dang

[raven goblet]

I feel your pain genuinely

[naive thicket]

Can't you just spend like 8 duck bucks for them afterwards?

[naive thicket]

They're not that expensive

[raven goblet]

No they’re elusive

[naive thicket]

Oh I'm thinking of the purple ones

[flat breach]

what rank are ye currently at

[unreal tulip]

diamond 3, lost a 3%wr and a full rank

[naive thicket]

Honestly yeah I get why games do it, but locking skins behind getting top rank in competitive is annoying

[flat breach]

ah nevermind then I'll probably just drop you down further

[raven goblet]

My rule is i log off if I fight GM or Master 4+
I usually only get 1 match in

[fierce drum]

real af

[raven goblet]

Yea stop it won’t get better

[fluid chasm]

This games servers need a whole fix

Players abusing lag spikes is getting out of hand

[celest herald]

I like when they have the evo placement badge

[vagrant thunder]

PFG just doesn't know. I'll give them $50 for the master skin if it means I can play in peace without ranked.

[raven goblet]

I don’t stay on log enough to even see

[raven goblet]

Real

[fierce drum]

then players who grinded for the skins will complain

[vagrant thunder]

So?

[fierce drum]

you know how they are

[naive thicket]

At this point I think they'd actually charge that much

[unreal tulip]

it won't get better until they fix Beetlejuice garbage hitboxes
any fight is a struggle to make them connect

[raven goblet]

Money > poor whiners

[ivory pelican]

@unreal tulip u good

[fierce drum]

well yeah, good point LMAOO

[raven goblet]

Felt but don’t lose yourself in the process

Take a step back

[flat breach]

anyone up for some regular 2s

[raven goblet]

👤

[flat breach]

just a couple matches

[naive thicket]

An important part of improvement and success in general is mindset, and playing while tilted is a bad idea. Just take breaks if you get too mad with this game.

[unreal tulip]

I wish I were

[ivory pelican]

U almost destroyed us

[flat breach]

you show up as offline 🗿

[vagrant thunder]

You should see a clip I recorded. WWs up tilt missed while I was centimeters away from a ln opponent that whiffed.

[fierce drum]

preach, playing while being mad is almost an assured loss

[unreal tulip]

ah, sorry, didn't notice

[ivory pelican]

What do u mean I didn’t notice

[raven goblet]

It’s a true statement

[ionic iris]

lol

[unreal tulip]

I had not read the names, I'm coming from a very bad streak

[vagrant thunder]

Ranked is near impossible to play with a clear mind.

[wet root]

Still not too bad

[vagrant thunder]

Especially when you just wanna be done with it.

@unreal tulip I'm calling it. Hammer spammer Harley.

[flat breach]

get on, or I'll bust in to your house and eat everything from your refrigerator

[fallen coyote]

Imagine not playing for fun

Couldn't be me

[open girder]

@unreal tulip we gotts play tmrw, i can carry probably

[unreal tulip]

maybe we should sometime

[fierce drum]

yeah, but my marcy doesnt look too close

[flat breach]

thats the issue, just en-gooden the streak

[raven goblet]

You’re going to be hungry mate…..
