2 of the ten is just me whiffing neutral

#

😏

fluid trail
#

hes hard to play but he lands one jab and youre dead at any damage above 20

tiny comet
#

Nah

#

Your approach vs joker is bad

fluid trail
#

are you likle

#

baiting rn

#

you do realize joker is like

#

the best character in the game rn right

tiny comet
#

Like i said

#

8/10

#

I win

#

Jokers not that good i promise you

fluid trail
#

you have to be playing against terrible joker players

#

he literally is...

tiny comet
#

Isnt

#

If youre losing to joker you have bad neutral

fluid trail
#

once again

#

one jab in neutral and youre dead at 20

joker player just plugged against me and for some reason i took the rp loss?

drowsy arch
#

this game needs a lot of work lol.... sorry that happened

#

I've been getting pretty mad at the game lately. I probs should take a break or shift gears but I'm a bit addicted to playing lmfao

slim musk
#

@crisp bronze I'm back
If you want to play more @ me

drowsy arch
#

I think i get the most frustrated playing against joker. I take everything I said about joker being "fair" lol....

#

maybe the more I climb the ladder I see how crazy he is

slim musk

#

joker and morty piss me off the most

slim musk
#

And black Adam

drowsy arch
#

I'm mostly okay with jack, just his jab feels so undeserved when it hits me

#

the speed and range of it

fluid trail
#

joker morty and gizmo are miserable matchups for garnet

drowsy arch
#

omg i forgot about gizmo idk how i forgot about gizmo

fluid trail
#

like 80-20 bad maybe worse

slim musk
#

Ugh gizmo

#

Hahaha

#

I don't use marker

#

Just let garnet have a directional throw :3. Solve all of it

signal dirge
#

Frankly im the only one who really knows how to do it with my brother whose s morty and it's barely useful anytime

#

Getting it on the ledge is dumb luck on certain maps. Just fly more into them

drowsy arch
#

idk why i always struggle vs banana guard

#

i feel like i shouldn't be

fluid trail
#

throw kills are very funny

signal dirge
#

I do adore them

fluid trail
#

and they very frequently throw off peoples mental

#

Tho I like being part of garnet group and finding things

#

i try to just put the marker up for "mental stack" vs actually using it lately

it's interesting to see how ppl play around it

Im too impatient

finally played a ton against a smith who actually knew how to combo and: wow getting on stage over the gun is surprisingly hard

Nah, Joker is very winnable now that his fish slap is nerfed. Unless you're fighting one who knows how to use acid to block off your approach... then it's a little harder.

do y’all use controller?

#

someone told me people use the dpad to fight in this game is it worth trying out?

would it make garnet better?

i tend to misinput down ground and up ground a lot which allows people to combo me

I don't use dpad

#

Both have an insane jab game

#

And a fatal uptilt

lofty loom
#

I think jokers better simply because yeah fin has a 0td but joker has more options

#

Like those 3 moves are all fun rly has and yeah they’re busted but you know what he’s gonna do

#

Joker has like 500 things that are all useful in different circumstances

Interesting. I was fighting a bugs that was going between 2 holes a lot and I stood in the middle distance between both entrances and timed my down attack to hit both entrances lolllll

i feel like 2s is a lot less of an exercise in raw mechanical skill and more of an exercise of teamcomp abuse

Sair, Upsecial is great. Then when they start dodging up to avoid it, I get upair, or to the side I get shoulder, sair. Starting to get it. Also a Taz learned I'm not afraid to parry cloud, it's actually easy.

wicked tusk
#

i just lost with garnet ranked 1s 6 times in a row
and lastly, my oppt batman salted me, i didn't do anything toxic to all of them beside fought fairly
i was like come on maan, why

#

My oppts previously are Jason, Black Adam, Finn, Bugs, Batman, and Batman :

  • Jason was really good, i respected that, same like Black Adam
  • Bugs, i was kinda unlucky, if i only can be more careful
  • and batman, i've no idea how to approach him anymore, because he always on the air and down special, even i can dodge it or keep distance from it, he will dodge forward to me quickly before i can reached to it

i desperately need suggestion to counter batman, if it's possible and also black adam

novel copper
wicked tusk
drowsy arch
#

I've been mixing up my approaches a lot lately. I used to nair forward a lot. Sometimes I nair backwards just to try to bait out some dodges... I've been watching people's dodge meter a lot more lately

#

Did you know sair1 and grounded up attack is faster than our jab?

drowsy arch
#

Lol I appreciate ur videos Kamen. The editting is fun

#

here's some frame data if anyone is interested

#

That's fascinating, clap is 15 frames and jab is 14 frames.... maybe I should just be going for raw clap sometimes cuz it's rly not that much faster than jab

#

also i didn't know grounded up attack is 10 frames... it makes sense cuz it looks fast. It's good to keep in mind what my fastest moves are

#

wow first hit of up special is 9 frames?! maybe that's why the hitbox and recovery is so jank? lol

drowsy arch
#

I think I heard you guys once mention that you like the finn matchup? What do u guys do? I am getting rekt lol

novel copper
#

8/10 Finns won't be able to adapt

I think I need to work on percentages and rages of down tilt

cuz the hit changes every single time and it confuses the f outta me lol

Is the blue diamond ringout a sign that she might be added?

Omg that felt good. Someone had garnet icons and clearly switched to black adam And I destoyed them LOLLLL. To be fair it was a good fight. I took set 1, they took set 2, then I turned up the heat in set 3 for the win.

gotta rep the garnet mains

yay i just broke into top 100 garnets for 1v1

Also b.a loop Batman so everyone can have loop except garnet beat one lost to the other both in masters

do y’all start the match with gauntlets or what

just hit master in ones, time to never play ranked again

i need tips crying_steven

#

i want to be grinding like y’all

fluid trail
#

i mean

#

i'd have to see ur gameplay to give pointers

drowsy arch
#

God every single finn is wrecking me

fluid trail
#

marker perk gives you free stage control that the finn will struggle to play around

#

and be conscious of when he tries to go for the 0td, di out and down gets you out of a lot of his setups for it

#

if he whiffs backpack be conscious of your punish options, you can often times kill him at 0 for even trying it

drowsy arch
#

I can't

#

deal with finn

#

i'm using marker perk

#

he's jumping over everything and punish every move i do

#

and side special on my gauntlets

#

it's really hard

fluid trail
#

garnets nair has higher priority than finns side special hitbox, throw out gauntlets and approach behind them with nair

drowsy arch
#

he dash attacks

#

at me sometimes

#

he mixes real good

fluid trail
#

his dash attack is insanely well telegraphed, and once again marker perk will help you keep stage control

#

also

#

for marker perk to be useful you dont have to insta use it

#

throw out the star and just leave it there

#

its threatening just being there

#

if he starts getting risky going in then use it

loud light
#

I made the Garnet rage quit 😔

fluid trail
#

crazy how that batman chose all of the wrong options in literally every interaction

loud light
#

Ikr

#

It started getting obvious

#

And I have a specialty of picking up on DI/dodge patterns fast

drowsy arch
#

what do u do in neutral finn?

loud light
#

So I started punishing him for each one

drowsy arch
#

just nair?

loud light
#

Me?

drowsy arch
#

fel

loud light
#

Oh

loud light
drowsy arch
#

no

this finn was playing it correct

loud light
#

Oh

#

what u think of those two clips zeekey

respected me if i was doing it

#

Hold on, gotta figure out how to open them

It wants me to use IMovie 😭

#

oop

#

one sec

#

there we go

#

my bad

loud light
#

Alr

drowsy arch
#

i threw out dash attack and he punished

loud light
#

lol

drowsy arch
#

i guess he jsut played more patient

#

i dont have recordings of finn games

loud light
#

I feel like Finn’s gotta stop just using backpack right after the end of their combo

#

In the sense that they should wait to see the dodge/DI

#

Or just back up a bit and then use it so there’s nowhere the opponent can go

fluid trail
loud light
#

Lmao

#

Random reverses are so funny

#

Some Batman tried to ladder combo me, missed, and I did a simple nair up air and he died 😭

#

It was first stock too

fluid trail
#

when i play against finns i either get 0td'ed off rip or i 0td em like twice in one game, sometimes both

loud light
#

Personally I prefer not to 0td

#

At least not true 0td

fluid trail
#

do u even have to read DI for finns 0td

loud light
#

I like doing dodge/DI read combos extensions instead

#

Not much

#

But it’s more enjoyable for me

#

And it makes my playstyle less oppressive for the opponent

fluid trail
#

youre intentionally nerfing yourself down from top tier is what youre saying

loud light
#

Yes

#

Because it’s more rewarding for me

#

Than to use the cop out 0td

fluid trail
#

you'll be rewarded hard when finn gets that 0td nerfed, 90% of finn players are crutching it hard

loud light
#

I lowkey gotta go back to hard dodge reads

#

I used to cook back during season 2 first released

#

I’d get like 3 dodge reads in a row

#

Cause they all dodged the same way so much lol

#

It got to the point I’d say where they’re going to dodge like a therapist and they’d do it 😭

#

“Now go ahead and dodge in for me”

fluid trail
#

occasionally i get matched against like

#

the average hardstuck silver player

#

and its so much fun to just punish their rolls halfway until they get the message

loud light
#

lol

fluid trail
#

like a jab1 and nothing else

#

a sair1 and nothing else

loud light
#

I be fighting some players that never get that message

#

Aka Jack mains

fluid trail
#

the platform fighter experience

loud light
#

The amount of times those mfs dodge in and jab

#

Also what is it with smith mains and always dodging in??

fluid trail
#

ive taken advantage of most jacks not knowing that you can even di out of their jab combo

loud light
#

Like the only ones I’ve fought literally refuse not to dodge in

#

I will say some of Jack’s hitboxes are downright criminal

fluid trail
#

eh

loud light
#

Besides the obligatory jab

fluid trail
#

jab is absurd yea

#

but i'd argue most of em other than down special are fine

loud light
#

Like up tilt hits behind him, aerial down special hits behind, above, and below him (directly), side special hits behind him

#

It just feels absurd at times

#

Thankfully he has so much whiff endlag

#

So you actually get to punish the whiffs

fluid trail
#

ive never had issues with SJ up tilt

loud light
#

And good golly they love to whiff

fluid trail
#

in fact i'd say its hitboxes are pretty small if anything

loud light
#

I’d be behind him and I still get sent back in front of him

fluid trail
#

never had that happen to me

loud light
#

🤷‍♂️

#

Hitboxes seem inconsistent, idk

#

Also screw Iron Giant

fluid trail
#

i'd imagine hes hard for finn

loud light
#

Horrid

fluid trail
#

finns air game isnt that great outside of the 0td and ig mainly struggles in the air

loud light
#

People say it’s a good matchup for us but we have to play perfectly

#

One damn jab and I’m at 60

loud light
#

I’d say nair is still good in the air

#

Up air is a fast option

fluid trail
#

its also that finn is light as hell so ig can cheese him easy

#

garnets not

loud light
#

Side air is at least good for ground surfing

#

Down air hitbox is actually much better now

#

Before it would be so pinpoint specific

#

That hitting it was like next to impossible

#

Unless they’re above you

#

Back in beta

loud light
#

I miss when ig was just the combo food for Finn

#

Those were good times

#

Mf couldn’t do anything too

fluid trail
#

thats how garnet fee;s

#

feels

loud light
#

Yeah

fluid trail
#

ive never struggled against an ig in ranked

loud light
#

Well at least that’s a good matchup for you guys

#

She needs it

fluid trail
#

she has like two good matchups against top tiers and the rest are just abysmal

loud light
#

😔

#

Praying for yall buffs

#

They hoed Garnet with all them nerfs

fluid trail
#

remove garnets iad sair loop but not BAs

loud light
#

It feels like they want characters to be underpowered sometimes

fluid trail
#

remove garnets iad sair loop but leave T&J up tilt loops

loud light
#

Considering T&J has a straight up loop now

fluid trail
#

the balancing decisions are like

#

genuinely baffling

loud light
#

It’s so inconsistent

#

They remove stuff from certain characters

#

But leave it for others

#

They have to be more consistent on what should and shouldn’t be in the game

#

Garnet and LeBron getting their combos deleted

#

But Joker gets one jab and you’re at 50

#

Or Finn gets one jab and you’re dead

#

Or T&J gets one up jab and you’re falling asleep from T&J loop gameplay

fluid trail
#

one more jab and you just die

loud light
#

Damn

#

It’s 70 now?

fluid trail
#

its been 70 for a while, expecially with garnet

loud light
#

😭

#

Hot n ready ahh combo

fluid trail
#

winning against a joker that knows the combos is genuinely impossible

loud light
#

I’ve done it before

fluid trail
#

you have to play neutral literally perfectly, cant get hit by anything at all because almost any of his moves can launch into a combo

loud light
#

But barely

#

Usually with dash attack

#

Because Joker mains are never used to disadvantage state

#

Since there is none

#

And end up never being able to space for their life

#

Lord knows what happens when I have to fight one that can 😔

fluid trail
#

and his dodges are so good that like half the time they'll dodge through you and out of punish range

#

even with a dodge read

lapis lynx
#

Yeah, for some reason he also gets to have a mad privileged dodge

loud light
#

Dodge distance can be so annoying

#

Cause some characters can just dodge away even on burnout to run

#

Cough cough Morty cough cough

lapis lynx
#

Fr

#

Their dodge distance should also be shortened in burnout

loud light
#

Legit

#

But would probably have to be for only certain characters

#

Cause I’m quite certain Garnet has a short dodge distance

#

That being shorter on burnout would be horrendous

lapis lynx
#

True

#

Only for the really good dodges

barren dome

are garnets perks any good?

#

I just got cooked by a lebron

#

it feels like garnets moves and the recovery times for her moves are way too slow

drowsy arch
#

@fluid trail I think i figured out a key thing I was doing wrong. I get knocked off stage and finn charges his neutral attack

#

when he whiffs, I try to punish it, but my moves are just too slow and he dodge punishes me instead

exotic hemlock
#

i hate a passive finn player

drowsy arch
#

i tried to just get stage control instead

#

after he missed his charge attk

tiny comet
fluid trail
#

he doesnt have any fast options to spike you offstage

tiny comet
#

Push buttons = win

exotic hemlock
#

how do I stop jab whiff?

#

like im doing that little punch animation and boom they dodge and I get combod

fluid trail
exotic hemlock
#

like the jab

#

like it’s so easily dodgeable by other

fluid trail
#

usually you shouldnt throw jab1 out in neutral unless youre at ledge and you're reading their getup option, jab1 is a combo tool

#

if you wanna land jab1, you should only use it after landing sair1

#

i can send a video to show

loud light
#

I hate when people play passive regardless of the character

exotic hemlock
#

so should I only approach if i land sair?

fluid trail
#

use sair 1 as an approach tool, it's way safer than jab 1 and has about the same startup time as jab1

exotic hemlock
#

okay thanks

Camp them out if you have gauntlet rocket and the little orb thingy

#

I think it’s mostly just play passive

wicked tusk
loud light
#

Yeah it’s apparently a good matchup for Garnet according to the high players

#

I’d suggest asking FrossTea, Fel, or KamenRoses

#

They know the most for that matchup I’d say

Ok
So
The best way to fight him is to use gauntlet as opener and a bait and follow it it with dash attack
He will use projectile block on 90% so you get free damage and opener. When you do it try to push advantage as long as possible, try to not let him play his game as long as possible. He is much weaker in the air than on ground.

#

Ig you have more questions about this match up just write and ping me

wicked tusk
tiny comet
#

If they dodge the rocket fist hit em with down attack as a follow up for it

#

It’ll work even if they use theyre anti projectile grounded move dash

#

tip for garnizzy

#

dont be afraid to use sair 2 by itself as an edgeguard tool

#

it has a really good hitbox

#

very deceptive range

#

people will see you whiff the sair 1 and jump in range of sair 2

crisp bronze
#

Tech i was using lately is that im using sair 1 when im on the other side of the stage and approching with sair 2, bcs you can use sair2 very long after sair 1

lapis lynx
#

I like delayed sair 2 to catch dodges

toxic walrus
#

sair 2 is a combo starter low % as well

#

can lead to decent big boy combos

I mean we get 1 combo extension off iad sair dont we?

#

Jab1, gauntlets, iad sair1, jab1, etc

#

I think it's dumb that superman has jab, down attack loop tho. No skill or execution essentially

#

I actually think 1 loop extension off of an iad is more fair than whatever joker is doing <_<. It's very unfun to know I have no chance of doing a correct DI. I dont necessarily want garnet to get a crazy loop. I just hope other chars dont have it either.

#

Does this combo work?

nair, ground bounce, sair1, jab1, gauntlets, iad sair 1, jab 1, jab2 up?

# crisp bronze <@989362846209048697> that's my mu list What do you think

Mostly i agree
it's just from my exp especially :

  • Steven : i rather put Steven on +1, because i won against him more often thnx to garnet shoulder bash so it kept her more flexible and faster
  • Jason : I won't sleep on jason because sometimes i got loop combo from jason side jab -> side jab -> down attack then repeatly until i got about 40-60%, and i had be more careful when i'm in the air because Jason up attack and up special have great knockback
  • Finn : because you put him in +1, i think i need more learn match up against him, it's just really difficult to approach and predict his movement because finn's side jab has long range

Honestly, taking a 2-3 day break can be a huge improvement to your game.

#

Especially if you are just learning something for your character.

#

Sometimes, it takes a little bit of time for our brain to properly pack new info away.

Taking a small break can help your brain create those neural pathways to create the muscle memory needed.

My play cycle for this game goes something like; play casuals for a day to brainstorm/try new things > play a few casuals and hop into ranked for an hour or two, trying out what I've practiced, going back to casuals the rest of the day to refine > warmup in casual, full day of ranked to really lock in what I've learned > casuals, followed by hopefully something different besides ranked, like a Custom Room on someones stream doing KOTH with a bunch of monsters > 2 day break with low stress monkey brain games and youtube brain rot to really set in that early dementia

#

MY BIG OL' WISHLIST FOR GARNET NEXT PATCH!

1: MAKE CLAP MORE CONSISTENT

Clap is one of her best kill options... that we have to fear everytime we use this. I've lost games from the move not connecting fully. If I hit you with the first hitbox, the second one should naturally connect.

2: Reduce endlag on miss for DTilt/increase uncharged speed and distance/decrease startup

Just make DTilt a little less risky to throw out, as it stands, the risk/reward isn't skewed well in Garnets favor for anyone with a pulse outside of a dodge read. Buff this button up and I will use it so much, leads to amazing damage if up special is off cooldown.

3: Increase movement speed effect on Sing/Reduce startup/fix not being able to reflect Reindog down special after bubbled/allow fastfall while singing like in beta

I think if Sing was a lot more like how it was in beta, would go a long way towards making me actually use this special more to reflect projectiles.

That's all I want really. I don't think it's too much of an ask. Maybe also letting armor kick in a Lil faster on jerry_fist for Skittles.

tiny comet
#

Nah

#

I dont need armor just more knock back initially

@crisp bronze @tender tiger @neat igloo @tiny comet @novel copper @vast yoke Sorry if I missed anyone, but wishlist for the patch?

I want her multihits a little more consistent

Sing to be buffed or reworked.

And faster frame data on things.

toxic walrus
#

I just want people not to fall out of jab.

#

That's the only other multihit in her kit that should be guaranteed if you hit the first jab.

#

IMO

#

Stationary multihits should be guaranteed, and if you can move at all during the 1st and 2nd hit (Uair, Sair) it shouldn't be.

#

Just a bit more consistency on sair would help alot for her imo
