Had an idea but unlikely

#

Can you bubble a ppg šŸ˜‚

icy umbra
#

That would be incredibly based

lapis lynx
#

Lol that'd be funny

exotic hemlock
#

i know you can’t hit them which is a bit wack

tiny comet
#

Thats was my idea

#

Kinda like agent smiths clone grab

#

Which you can bubble

#

šŸ˜‚

exotic hemlock
#

yep lol

#

time for the lab

#

even if we could it’s not like it would activate on time 😭

wicked tusk
#

Man, i want to focus on play Garnet and WW in 2s this season
but the matchmake took pretty longer than 1s

lapis lynx
#

I wonder if the girl's weight changes depending on whos the leader

tiny comet
exotic hemlock
#

who’s the fattest

icy umbra
lapis lynx
#

Nice

wicked tusk
#

everything is nice

lapis lynx
exotic hemlock
#

the one downside to the new perk is that you have to be on ground

slim stone
#

How's the new perk?

exotic hemlock
#

but most of the time you either fling it off the map or it goes away before you can use it

#

if you put it on a platform though you can trigger a ground bounce that can get you a free combo

tiny comet
#

Mini c4

exotic hemlock
#

who’s number 6 grandmaster garnet

#

is he the star abuser?

tiny comet
#

Havent checked name?

#

Start abuser?

exotic hemlock
tiny comet
#

Dunno

icy umbra
#

I know I lost to a garnet yesterday named amlak, kinda laggy and was trying to do the star in the blast zone cheese.

#

Also, in a sea of Every masters player that started Plat 5, I ran into the superman that keeps bullying me. LET ME LIVE.

#

The matches are always 2-3, but the loops are still there and his grab hitboxes be scoopin.

woeful goblet
#

dam garnet fast af now lol

exotic hemlock
#

if they dodge away after hitstun you get a free down tilt but i don’t know if it’s worth it

novel copper
icy umbra
#

They didn't do it with rockets, they jump into the top blast zone and manually place star. I genuinely don't get how they don't ring themselves out.

exotic hemlock
#

like the minute your character becomes hidden by the map they should be rung out

versed bronze
#

guess who bacc

lapis lynx
#

FROSS

#

Have you had a chance to play the patch?

versed bronze
#

garnet a+ tier

#

rn

lapis lynx
#

W

versed bronze
#

ok
charging dair is viable strategy rn

icy umbra
#

@versed bronze thoughts of thunderclap?

neat igloo
#

hey whoever Bobby is don't do that again finish the set

versed bronze
#

its good

#

in almost every match up

hushed needle
icy umbra
#

Interesting. How are you using it to apply pressure?

versed bronze
#

will not say more

#

but fck them

tiny comet
#

Facts

#

Cancel culture

drowsy arch
#

what do u guys think is the best perk in garnet's third slot.

Movespeed,
last stand (weaken)
or broken wings?

icy umbra
#

I normally default to last stand, but I'm considering SFA becuase I'm thinking about running electric groove now.

versed bronze
#

if you dont plat groove

drowsy arch
#

what's plat groove?

dense nebula
#

using thunderclap, can garnet jab, shoot the up b ball and detonate it as a true combo?

drowsy arch
#

oh u mean play groove?

dense nebula
#

broken wings MIGHT be good if you struggle offstage

drowsy arch
#

i guess i have to get better on my defense in general

#

for the longest time i've gone movespeed because I couldn't utilize last stand good enough

#

but my friend basically told me i'm just bad LOL.... so i'm gonna try last stand again

icy umbra
versed bronze
#

btw

tiny comet
#

šŸ‘€

versed bronze
#

dlight is now so good against taz

#

like

#

charged dlight

tiny comet
#

and steven

versed bronze
#

is blessing

dense nebula
tiny comet
#

šŸ˜

dense nebula
#

can garnet still jab ball jab?

drowsy arch
#

that was never true unless they were burnt out

#

or if they are at 100 damage

#

or like 80+?

#

that's when there's enough hitstun

versed bronze
#

still
window to dodge is VERY narrow

exotic hemlock
#

it only works for big characters for me

drowsy arch
#

did u set a char to high damage?

#

i'll try it in training one sec

#

it works for me

exotic hemlock
#

i’ll test it out in a bit

drowsy arch
#

set handicap to 75 on shaggy. dodge after htistun

#

the combo works

#

if it's 70 damage or less it doesn't combo

exotic hemlock
#

good to know

#

thanks šŸ™

drowsy arch
#

it's a high% kill combo

exotic hemlock
#

as in you can jab ball jab clap and kill at 75?

icy umbra
#

It's good to keep in mind, jab ball CAN hit smaller characters if you catch them jumping or before they land. The opponent being a little airborne can help a bit.

drowsy arch
#

no it combos at 75 onwards (char dependent. Heavier chars require later percentages)

tiny comet
lavish berry
#

How do y'all deal with Batman's. I legit can't do anything against them. They just out camp me, and out frame data me.

tiny comet
#

Hes pretty nuts

lapis lynx
#

Batman is very good rn

drowsy arch
#

i just lsot to 1

dark quiver
#

don't think there's an answer to him for garnet tbh, he's too fast and has better buttons

drowsy arch
#

wtf? disconnect penalty when i didn't even disconnect? I was in queue wtf?

#

the f is that crap. it said i got -10

tiny comet
#

Game is in beta

#

Patch week worse week

fleet birch
#

u just gotta really try and outplay him

tiny comet
#

^

fleet birch
#

work on dodges

exotic hemlock
#

haven’t fought a batman but that uptilt has always been lethal

fleet birch
exotic hemlock
#

and what do we do with menaces?

#

we complain until someone does something about it

#

this jab ball jab clap combo is really good

#

i’m learning more about this character everyday

drowsy arch
#

Lol the game wouldn't let me re-queue because it said i disconnected. wow.

fleet birch
#

oh my god what is up with my 2v2 teammates being new to the gmae

exotic hemlock
fleet birch
#

i swear

#

theyre handpicking the newest players to be my teammates

#

i had them in the final combo and he launches a safe at them and we lose

drowsy arch
#

i like 2v2

#

that's my main mode

#

i find 1v1 rly frustrating if i get someone who is really slippery

fleet birch
#

Its either my teammates bad

#

or the ppl we are against just take up so much space i cant do much

#

like ppg and samurai jack

drowsy arch
#

i find all ppgs are trash rn lol

#

prob gonna take a few days before they get good

fleet birch
#

another sam jack and ppg

#

lets hope this random finn is good

#

HES FIGHTING AIR

#

bro

tiny comet
#

I just be chillin

#

Playing for fun

#

šŸ˜

exotic hemlock
#

in a map like cromulons down tilt is to good but a little hard to pull off

#

if I my opponent is playing passive and I wanted to counter that by also playing passive what would a go to move be for punishing

#

nair isn’t hitting the way it used to

#

i’ve had more misses with the new perk than anything else

#

everyone is playing so cautious cause of it

#

and then I can’t approach at all

#

getting a jerry to 140 and can’t land a single jab as he just rocket spams jerry

#

why is there no cooldown to that wrap around

#

i hate move that have slight jumps that my down tilt just misses

#

and down tilt at higher percentages has too much knock back to even finish with clap

drowsy arch
#

u have to jump up air

#

some weird stuff at various percents

exotic hemlock
#

by then they’re no longer stunned

drowsy arch
#

i've been able to connect it

#

it's true at certain percents i believe

exotic hemlock
#

i’ll try it more often thank you for the help

#

god I feel like such a complainer

#

need to learn how to stop raging

drowsy arch
#

i'm like that too. Garnet is sometimes a frustrating char to learn. I had a lot of walls.

exotic hemlock
#

not according to people in general

fleet birch
#

oh my god yall werent kidding batman is so op now

#

Like hes always been like annoyingly good

#

but now hes just flat out broken

rough mason
#

Honestly I think the PPG’s are gonna be my second main

exotic hemlock
fleet birch
exotic hemlock
#

idk he has one that puts you to 60 health

#

its the only combo this batman knows

fleet birch
#

which one 😭

exotic hemlock
#

LMFAO

fleet birch
#

its like

#

throw out batarang

exotic hemlock
#

jab kick bats rang idk

fleet birch
#

if u get combod

#

it comes back

#

and then gets u into a 60 dmg combo

exotic hemlock
#

pretty sure

fleet birch
#

then the bom

#

bomb

#

and his huge up attack

exotic hemlock
#

thing is it techs

fleet birch
#

ur just dead

exotic hemlock
#

so if he read the tech you’re already at 90

#

gonna spar some batman’s to learn a bit more

icy umbra
#

unless training room in bugged, projectile shield works against bugs safe and morty bombs

exotic hemlock
#

you can just stand there unfazed

icy umbra
#

and walking over morty bomb with the shield just destroys them apparently.

exotic hemlock
#

interesting

#

doesn’t block dirt though rip

#

lol how broken that would be

icy umbra
#

that would be crazy

drowsy arch
#

i've been really liking groove perk especially in 2s because of downtilt buff. i'm getting the buff proc more often now

fleet birch
#

just the fact that so many components of his kit work by themselves

exotic hemlock
#

has taz ever had a problem with dropping people

fleet birch
#

and then hes really well rounded

fleet birch
exotic hemlock
#

hmm

drowsy arch
#

taz, batman, beetlejuice are big threats for me rn

#

they seem a lot stronger

fleet birch
drowsy arch
#

i think beetle is gonna keep evolving this patch.... there were a couple i felt like i couldn't do anything (similar feeling to batman). Beetle is much rarer tho

#

I really love the nerf to black adam's down attack. Thank god

exotic hemlock
#

he’s so oppressive if they spam his worm and bomb

drowsy arch
#

omg SO SICK... I had 3 stack rhythym up and black adam's neutral special lightening completely whiffed

#

it said (dodge above my head)

tiny comet
#

Op op

#

5 long seconds

lavish berry
#

Just fought a garnet ditto in ranked and he was emoting on me all game, but ended up losing, but flashed a GG at the end like he wasn't bad manners the whole game

#

He lost, if that wasn't clear

drowsy arch
#

these garnet buffs feel so good. I feel like I'm playing a real char now lol

#

the clap fix makes me really happy

drowsy arch
#

LOL wtf does garnet's stack 3 shield block fishing rod too?!

#

i'm playing vs a tom and black adam and it's stuffing so much crap

#

it's insane

#

kinda op

wicked tusk
drowsy arch
#

I swear it was... I need to get a tom to play with me to see for sure

#

I can see her stack 3 def getting nerf... it should b like 1 hit? maybe 2? kinda similar to steven's

#

omfg..... can u imagine if u have garnet's stack 3 + steven shield LOL.....

exotic hemlock
#

is arya still good against garnet

#

i just fought one but he was playing so passive i got bored and just left

#

it was causal no one should play so passive on casual

drowsy arch
#

just got into diamond 5

wicked tusk
drowsy arch
#

I have to experiment more in 2s, specifically in the tom matchup on if it's worth to keep up stack 3....

#

i think it is

#

ur right tho... not as good in 1v1

fleet birch
#

im doing 1v1 with this dude

#

and he said pick garnet i can beat her with samurai jack

#

he had 5kos

#

he didnt get a ringout once

#

😭

#

5-0

drowsy arch
#

lolllllll

#

i like the garnet vs jack matchup. I think it's even

wicked tusk
# drowsy arch i think it is

And also when match up against Tom
don't ever dancing while TnJ still alive, because even Garnet's new shield can block Jerry
but we can't block Jerry with dancing shield

wicked tusk
fleet birch
drowsy arch
#

i love punishing his side special with a nair ground bounce into jab combo

wicked tusk
fleet birch
#

OH MY GOD I DID IT AGAIN LMAOOO

drowsy arch
#

did what?

tiny comet
#

Nerf garnet

fleet birch
tiny comet
#

Sad last stand really is a crutch perk

fleet birch
#

yall can catch me jumping off the map vs iron giant

#

cuz wtf

#

talk about free wins

tiny comet
#

Theres a neutral punch bug

fleet birch
tiny comet
#

Punch but float up as the knockback

#

Instead of dying

icy umbra
#

Oh yeah, that happened to me a few times yesterday.

#

Wack af

tiny comet
#

I gotta stop playing

#

Ima get garnet nerfed

drowsy arch
#

IKR LOL

#

my winrate is bonkers... but then i got to diamond and I'm losing left and right again haha

#

there's also a perma shocked buff bug

exotic hemlock
drowsy arch
#

ya

#

i don't know how to trigger it tho

#

sometimes when i attack in the zone after I shoot ball, I notice i keep the shocked buff for an extremely long time

#

usually until i use another shocked move

#

and it def applies shocked because I've been using the groove signature perk and I get stacks of rhythym super fast when this bug happens

#

it's like marvin's flag bug.... god that one is so effing annoying. It's basically RIP to ur stock if it happens to u lol

exotic hemlock
exotic hemlock
drowsy arch
#

u attack in the yellow zone

#

the one that gives u the shocked buff

exotic hemlock
drowsy arch
#

yes

#

that's how u get the shocked buff to begin with

#

did u know the orb gives shocked buff? xD

exotic hemlock
drowsy arch
#

ah

tiny comet
#

3 neutral punches

exotic hemlock
#

i wish d tilt into neutral punch was true lol

#

i love d tilt so much my favorite move

drowsy arch
#

I think it is at a certain damage and distance away?

#

u can def down tilt into jab, then u can jab into punch

#

it's true at 0% damage

#

at least on shaggy

#

mid range down tilt distance.... hold for about 1 second then u can get a semi-charge fist

#

ya i just did it in the lab with bot set on dodge after hitstun

drowsy arch
#

i just faught a garnet in grandmasters

#

rank 79

#

the garnet rep xD

exotic hemlock
#

so many garnets are in grandmaster rn it’s so good to see

tiny comet
#

To much rng knockback too

tiny comet
wicked tusk
exotic hemlock
#

Now if they were gay they’d be

#

i’m tired

wicked tusk
exotic hemlock
#

all i’m saying is id still be able to move

icy umbra
#

Is bigjohnson in here? I saw his midnight multiversus grand finals vs a superman named anthos. I want to ask if he thinks superman is a tough matchup or if Anthos is just cracked.

tiny comet
#

Nah

#

Anthos is one of the ones

#

Bjohnson be in jb streams

icy umbra
#

Gotcha. What do the good garnets think of the superman matchup rn?

tiny comet
#

Check dm

#

I wonder if the 3rd rhythm stack butter buns negate frost breath

sullen steppe
#

How to beat garnet bro

#

Anytime I play PPG garnet washes me

novel copper
#

Screw it, bought the battlepass

#

not gonna wait for my token to be restored if I'm just gonna be buying later ones anyway

tiny comet
#

Ppg nair is pretty good too vs garnet

#

Prioritize being bubbles cause the other ppg are slow but hit harder

#

You can always side special her armor moves grabs beat armor

#

And just do jab into up attack kill confirm instead of doing the same combo that might kill isnt better than doing to combo that will kill

#

Efficiency over flashy

jolly flax
#

How does one deal with the Powerpuff girls like it’s so weird to fight against them

tiny comet
#

Avoid nair and dtilt u’ll be fine

#

Everything works on them and their hurt box is pretty huge

dark quiver
#

just had clap drop 3 times in a row vs shaggy haha

#

thought we fixed this, but i guess not!!!

wicked tusk
exotic hemlock
dark quiver
#

yeah i think you're both right, the clap drops when above 100%

#

so i had my clap drop 3 times in a row at 150+, and then on a separate game, i had it drop at 110 (also a shaggy)

wicked tusk
dark quiver
#

i have it

wicked tusk
dark quiver
wicked tusk
#

somehow we and the oppts can survive at >150% sometimes

dark quiver
#

i think what they need to do is make the first hit from the clap have no knockback scaling, but it will still vacuum them to the middle area above garnet

wicked tusk
dark quiver
#

hmm i see what you're saying

#

alternative take: it's shaggy and his weird weight and hitboxes

#

his jab1 definitely hit my gauntlet, but jab2 and 3 were definitely not touching anything and seem to be hitting me with his body or elbows

tiny comet
#

Nerf garnet

tiny comet
#

I think last stand needs to be removed or other perks need better buffs

#

Its becoming like how taz trig was in the beta

dark quiver
#

oh that's a really good point actually, let me try playing without last stand

tiny comet
#

Mandatory

icy umbra
#

In theory, garnet doesn't need last stand. She only struggles to kill if you miss you percent windows for kill confirms.

tiny comet
#

I turn into wild thornberry donnie when jack survived a fully charged neutral punch at 130 that he just went straight up

icy umbra
#

I would also go Feral

#

I haven't played without last stand for a while, but I'm going to run electric groove and SFA today. I really don't think garnet is desperate for extra kill power. I JUST NEED KILL MOVES TO FUNCTION PFG PLEASE

lapis lynx
#

Speed force assist my beloved

drowsy arch
#

someone crapped on me because I said I think it's a lot closer whether speed force assist or last stand is more valuable

#

I think the obvious choice is last stand. But I find that I just die by the time i get 100 damage a lot....

tiny comet
#

It just makes killing her harder

drowsy arch
#

and i just need to maneuver

#

it doesn't tho?

#

because I'm usually killing someone at my damage at 0% when i respawn

tiny comet
#

The clip

icy umbra
#

Last stand also doesn't plug up any holes in garnets gameplay, while SFA does. Rythm stack moves speed + SFA seems like a lot. And electric groove means less management for us, not fiending for downtime to charge rythm.

#

But I haven't tried it in matches so I could be cappin.

drowsy arch
#

can u guys stop playing garnet

#

i hate playing against garnet as garnet lol

#

LMFAOOOO

exotic hemlock
#

garnet is really strong in lower ranks

tiny comet
#

Garnet op

#

Nerf

exotic hemlock
#

lmfao really op

drowsy arch
#

i can't stand finn still

exotic hemlock
#

i can’t believe i’ve been putting off ranked im climbing

drowsy arch
#

it felt easy all the way up to diamond 5 for me

#

and then i can't move anywhere lol

exotic hemlock
#

haven’t fought one yet

#

are they just playing passive

novel copper
#

You were right to put it off

#

😭

tiny comet
#

I be putting it off

#

I play whenever i feel like it

#

11-0 btw

dark quiver
tiny comet
#

Freelo

novel copper
#

Wow, I thought they fixed clap, what happened

drowsy arch
#

so i lost 19 vs grandmasters and i lose 4 vs golds?

#

i don't get it

dark quiver
#

it's more consistent at lower percentages (sub 100) but completely inconsistent when they're above 100

#

you have to be right on top or inside of someone for it to properly kill them at 100+

dark quiver
#

still no justice for garnet mains until we get one good season without any flops šŸ˜”

tiny comet
#

Naaaaa

#

We’ve gotten buffs every patch

#

Daddy chillll

exotic hemlock
#

once the streamers start complaining it’s when we should worry

wicked tusk
#

Even sometimes i complained about broken chars, Finn pre nerf was the worst one imo
but i'm personally won't ask for nerf any chars, because it'll potentially will ruin the game
like, come on, like Velma buff for example, let her get spot at top tier for while
Lebron and Garnet as well

#

"Complaining" is start getting a common thing and kind of exaggerated without learning the match up further

exotic hemlock
#

yeah lmfaoo, i think it’s mainly that pfg fails so often it’s become the default to blame the game than your skill level

#

but still
nerf ww

#

y’all know we are the second character chat with the most messages

#

is there a way to know when down special won’t grab?

#

or is that another bug

tiny comet
#

On going random bug

icy umbra
#

I'm not surprised we have the second most active chat. We been stuck cooking and scheming since relaunch just to stay alive.

dark quiver
#

it wouldn't kill them to nerf a top tier character for once tbh

jolly flax
#

Garnet deserves to be at least high tier in one of the season. She’s never been before. It’s her time

dark quiver
#

there's a clear bias towards the DC characters, they're clearly afraid of touching those in a negative way in case DC fans start an outrage

#

somehow every single one of them still has an egregious loop combo that either 0td's or gets you from 0-70 or something

jolly flax
#

FACTS THATS SO TRUE

#

Stop they are going to come after us

solar flame
#

How did the patch effect Garnet? I'm thinking about picking her back up.

drowsy arch
#

buttercup sounds so ugly lol

lapis lynx
#

I like eg daily's raspy voice

#

whu dat

lapis lynx
#

Buttercup's voice actor

exotic hemlock
#

is this true or just an over exaggeration, i fought one joker but he still played the same as he did before so

icy umbra
#

Has anyone tried out the new Grey health perk?

fleet birch
#

like ppl dropped gizmo like hes not still op

tiny comet
#

Sigh

#

Buff neutral punch

#

Shadow nerfs i swear

icy umbra
#

They made clap slightly more reliable, but in exchange they took neutral ground away.

#

The PFG giveth, and the PFG taketh away

tiny comet
#

Its cause i asked for 1k damage

exotic hemlock
#

how can I even nair closer to the ground

exotic hemlock
#

chat i got a 90 percent win rate on ranked with garnet (im in silver so no impressive but still)

tiny comet
#

W mans

#

Garnet op

#

Garnet win rate too high

#

Nerfs incoming

exotic hemlock
#

yeah there’s times I feel like i shouldn’t have won that but clap is just too good

#

idk if y’all know this but if you dodge on ledge when coming back to stage you get a huge propeller boost

#

it’s really nifty

#

i can’t get it consistently but it happens a lot more often

How y’all liking the garnet buffs

runic trail
#

How is this character now? Been kinda wondering about possibly getting her but idk

runic trail
#

She seems fun

Her jabs feel satisfying to hit

#

Also I’m a Steven Universe fan lol

When are Pearl and amethyst getting added

fleet birch
#

a whip fighter would be so cool

exotic hemlock
#

I’m trying to make an amethysts concept move set

fleet birch
runic trail
#

Ranged command grab with whip

#

She literally has Sonic spin dash

fleet birch
#

And pearls lasers from the spear

runic trail
#

Watch as the next SU character is freaking Connie because we totally need another sword fighter

#

Also ngl garnet has a decent amount of solid skins

#

Her wedding outfit is awesome

fleet birch
#

they could incorporate a ton of characters tbh

exotic hemlock
#

i call it the Quartz soldier roll

#

i know i want her neutral special to be a purple puma transform though

fleet birch
#

spin dash

exotic hemlock
#

another move could be a stun grab with her whip

fleet birch
#

and she can turn into dogcopter

exotic hemlock
#

lmfaooo that would be a cool emote

#

even where she turns into an actual functioning helicopter

fleet birch
#

she would be like an altered jake

#

shapeshifting

exotic hemlock
#

she uses purple puma form a lot when she needs strength

#

like her shapeshifting isn’t functionally just funny

fleet birch
#

Yess

#

Ngl feels like pfg keeps missing the mark with characters

#

Sam jack, beetle, power puff and the other character are all just kinda meh

runic trail
#

Tbh I think they’re all nice inclusions, but I feel like it’s taking a long time to get a lot of big name hitters in the game

Wish characters were added at a somewhat faster pace. Right now feels kinda slow

Like where’s Ben 10

fleet birch
#

but like

#

none of them just hit the mark

#

kinda niche

#

i bet steven universe characters would hit hard

#

like all the stuff they could add

#

maps

#

characters

#

even rifts

#

the diamons

#

diamonds

#

spinel

#

jasper

runic trail
#

Eh idk

#

WB has so many IPs to pull from that I can’t be sure which one will get a lot of attention

lapis lynx
#

DC has the most characters right now

fleet birch
#

pls

#

😭😭😭

lapis lynx
#

Guess it makes sense, dc is one of their most popular ips

fleet birch
#

yea but UGH so boring

lapis lynx
#

WBs fire emblem

fleet birch
#

i want amethyst

runic trail
#

(I lowkey would be happy to see the Flash tho)

fleet birch
#

NO MORE SUPERHEROES PLS

runic trail
#

But I like flash LOL

fleet birch
#

NO

runic trail
#

But I get it

fleet birch
#

AMETHYST

#

or courage the cowardly dog

runic trail
#

But Ben 10 tho

fleet birch
#

eh

#

im indifferent to him

runic trail
#

I think a lot of people would be happy for Ben to get in tho

exotic hemlock
#

you know i would be

lapis lynx
#

Likewise, ben has so much moveset potential

fleet birch
#

i wouldnt be mad

#

I just want amethyst

šŸ˜

icy umbra
#

cant wait for the patch they said they would address finn mindlessly carrying you to the blast zone. everytime the "nerf" finn, his combos get more true.

4 almost back to back grandmaster finns

drowsy arch
#

i think ppl just get better with the character too

#

i guess it shows how powerful he was to begin lol

icy umbra
#

sure they got better, but they are still just mashing aerials until youre close enough to a blast zone for backback to kill.

#

when they play the game like a normal person, even matchup. when they turn their brain off and mash like a caveman, finn goes up in the tierlist

drowsy arch
#

omg Blaizzy is insane on PPG

he's laddering like crazy

I haven't match up against Samjack since day 1 S3

is it an insta stock once you get caught?

Neutral punch it

tiny comet

If your hp is high you have low resistance to get out of it

If its low you’ll break out quicker but gotta be ready to recover

#

idk why people complaining about finn while playing garnet

#

this match up is so free its unreal

hushed needle
#

haven't played in a long time but I always complained because finn mains can't really do nothing than a boring gamestyle

#

if someone complained he's op when playing garnet then that's wrong tbh

#

his loop gameplay is just bad same as taz

tiny comet
latent apex
#

Her weight makes her hard to combo and kill and i die at like 90 to uptilt

versed bronze
#

if you know what you doing finn doesnt have a chance to approche
like 0

latent apex
#

So i gotta play slow and passive unfortunately i think that's why the other guy was mad

#

He queued into me like 3 times

versed bronze
#

well
after i end sparring i can play vs you if you want

latent apex
#

Im not gonna be home for a few hours maybe later or tmrw

#

You gonna have to remind me though i got bad memory

versed bronze
#

oke

tiny comet
#

When i play vs finn all they do is camp edge if the map and never initiate

#

I can literally beat them using neutral punch dtilt alone most of the times

#

I’ll shoot a rocket fist and do down tilt if they armor the projectile and they’ll fall for dtilt everytime

latent apex
#

See that's what that guy was trynna do

#

But i aint dumb so i do an aerial side special instead to break gauntlets and close gap

tiny comet
versed bronze
#

idk how many times this move ended right next to me
so i just jabbed

latent apex
#

You can somewhat manipulate how it travels

#

And it doesn't have much endlag

#

So just be careful for that

#

And the matchup becomes a billion times harder for the finn

tiny comet
#

I got a complaint for using spamming projectiles as garnet

#

How dare i use my projectiles that go on cooldown….Batman

latent apex
#

Doesn't garnet have like 2 that have a decent CD

versed bronze

tiny comet
#

Ikr

versed bronze
#

you spamm them off cooldown tho

to have better moves

tiny comet
#

Clap when it works

latent apex
#

Clap kills scarily early

versed bronze
#

80-90 vs finn

latent apex
#

That garnet i was fighting went for it like once which shocked me because that thing obliterates me

#

I shouldn't be living to like 150

Buggy clap

Buggy neutral punch

Buggy air up special

A tier despite these problems

I stopped clapping becuase I couldn't get ahold of you. Trust me, I wanted nothing more than to clap. Clap is love, clap is life (when it works)

#

Good luck

#

I was trying different di, and trying to parry. Is there a way out of the blast zone carry? Or am I just in the blender?

latent apex
#

A lot of what i did on you wasn't true

#

For garnet u can mash ur dodge button

#

And DI out

#

Most of the time you'll drop if it's basic combos

#

I have to make sure to do tight combos because heavies take less hitstun

icy umbra
#

I WAS MASHING DODGE LIKE MY LIFE WAS ON THE LINE IRL

#

Was I laggy maybe?

latent apex
#

That's cap cause i was doing jab into IAD dair on you and that's not true on heavies until a certain procent iirc

latent apex
icy umbra
#

The jab into IAD dair I wasn't ready for, that's on me. I was reffering to the off stage carry.

latent apex
#

Idr know of any that i did

#

Do u have a clip of it maybe cause i didn't clip anything from our matches

icy umbra
#

No I don't have anything, I wasn't recording, and I don't know how to clip.

latent apex
#

Then can't really help sorry

#

Only things i can rlly do vs garnet is nair sair(sair 2 or) nair again and then sair 1-2

#

A lot of finns dont do that so you probably dont have to worry but it can carry you sometimes if ur at the right procent

versed bronze
#

@icy umbra

#

out or down di

#

most of the time work

fleet birch
latent apex
#

Depending on what im trying to do i can catch that

#

Id say preferably outwards. If u DI down i think it makes sair nair easier

versed bronze
#

no
he need to read di down

#

to actualy combo you

I need to try Garnet our

#

dlight

#

just dlight

#

this move
especialy after buffs counter entire finn on ground

icy umbra
#

Then my timing is just awful becuase I was doing dtilt. I think I'm giving him to much space because I'm scared of the blender, so I dtilt while he has room to micro space with running jab and uptilt.

versed bronze
latent apex
tiny comet
icy umbra
#

Sometimes in not even trying to approach, I'm just trying to get my good moves back 😭. I need to pick better times to get rid of my projectiles. I wasn't respecting how long your side special is.

latent apex
#

So while u may be far enough, the projectile that i just saw you shoot isn't

drowsy arch
#

My main B&B combo is a low to the ground Nair, ground bounce, sair 1, jab 1, jab 2 up attack. Then I force my opponent to dodge and I read with either sair 1 sair 2, or another held nair. Sometimes I get another nair ground bounce and do the combo and situation all over again.

If you get a clean hit with jab1 you can go jab1, side special (gauntlets), ground bounce, IAD sair1, jab 1, jab 2 up attack. (then do the same dodge read situation as above).

Down tilt is really strong this season. Max distance down tilt leads into a jab at low %... high % you can jump and nair starter. Sometimes you can follow up with clap or a grounded up attack is good too.

If my opponent is in burnout I go for shoulder bash, sair 1, shoulder bash, sair 1, up air to carry them into the blast zone (this combo isn't guaranteed and requires to follow the opponent's movement)

#

Just wanted to share my combo route game plan lol.... Up for any critiques or comments. It's written a bit oddly because I commented on a youtube video when he asked what combos I do.

tiny comet
#

Nerf garnet

drowsy arch
#

LOL

icy umbra
latent apex
#

Basically yeah

icy umbra
#

And your saying you can lock onto projectiles, not just other characters?

latent apex
#

And if ur locking onto a projectile that distance becomes like 4x for some reason

latent apex
#

And not just traditional normal projectiles

#

U can lock onto morty dirt, even while it's still charging, ppg side special etc etc

#

And u gain complete projectile immunity even if u dont break the projectile

#

Which lets you do the move through bugs rocket and stuff

icy umbra
#

So I have to either throw my projectiles from across the stage, or use them in weird positions and be tricky about it.

#

Otherwise I'm giving you a garunteed gap closer since I'd be stuck in endlag

latent apex
#

It might genuinely be more optimal to throw them off the map

exotic hemlock
#

why did they remove finn’s coin

icy umbra
#

I've considered that, but I figured I was wasting pressure. I didn't realize I was helping you.

exotic hemlock
#

was it too strong?

latent apex
exotic hemlock
#

yeah

latent apex
#

That thing was broken

#

Made finn skip neutral, recovering, gave him combos everything rlly

#

Just imagine ur a zoner character on the other side of scoobys mansion and a cracked up 12 year old throws a yellow gem towards ur frontal lobe and ur suddenly locked into a combo

latent apex
icy umbra
#

All advice is appreciated. The gaps in my knowledge in some matchups is astonishing sometimes.

exotic hemlock
#

yeah i didn’t play him that much in beta

latent apex
#

I think the garnet i struggled the most against was hero sword but that was like week 1 season 1

#

And i still won

latent apex

So he starts throwing half eaten apples at you

I thinking about the amount of times I've saved a Finns life by shooting rockets at them off stage...

tiny comet

buff garnet

drowsy arch
#

is it nerf ganet or buff garnet

#

lol

#

so if a finn is recovering we don't shoot projectiles right? lol

exotic hemlock
#

the mojo jojo map must be amazing for finn

#

or annoying

icy umbra
#

Seems so. I didn't know sidw special auto tracked, let alone it can lock on to projectiles, I didn't know shooting projectiles at finn made him stronger.

#

When I get home, I'm gonna actually read other characters abilities

drowsy arch

finn is a complete character xD

wicked tusk
# radiant stirrup New to the discord not to game and garnet, I have over thousand wins with her. S...

i get that the reasons
but so far Garnet is in a good spot right now (probably better than previous seasons)
of course i want they keep buff to garnet, but we have to think carefully if we don't want to make Garnet becomes OP like Finn, Shaggy etc

"she feels balanced, but when fighting other characters that aren't, it's a struggle most times"
Understandable, this is why patience and learn match up are the most importants imo
of course the progression could be more frustrating than when we main with better char than Garnet

echo solstice
#

Hey ive been trying to learn combos with Garnet as of recently and i'm just wondering how do you guys combo with grounded up special when it's not on cooldown? I've seen some Garnets do it but I still haven't figured it out

echo solstice
#

Yes I believe so

radiant stirrup
#

I feel like I cant do any combos with her. It's either she's slow to get her moves off or have to much end lag, or other characters are quicker to dodge and dodge distance

drowsy arch
jolly flax
# radiant stirrup I feel like I cant do any combos with her. It's either she's slow to get her mov...

I feel the same way but I also agree with Uparazi. Like she is balanced and you have to be patience and know what to do in a bad matchup. She definitely better than beta or previous season and we don’t want her too strong where they nerf her hard. But I feel like some moves even though you are patience or try to counter a whiff don’t work bc her hurt box is huge and the start up to a move or an end lag to a move just ruins your plan. Like I will hear the gauntlet noise but it didn’t come out bc my opponent hit me much faster and I’m like what the frick. Like she needs to be a little faster in my opinion and have a little less end lag and I mean like little less end lag. This is just my opinion and sorry if I’m wrong about anything.

down tilt max distance leads into a jab combo (follow up with the combo i just mentioned)

wicked tusk
drowsy arch
#

her B&B is nair, ground bounce, sair 1, jab1, jab2 up attack.... then I do a dodge read with either sair 1, sair 2 or hold nair (sometimes I get a rebounce if they dodge down and I do the whole combo over again lol)

latent apex
#

Maybe a bit more whiff on nair i think

drowsy arch
#

her main combo starter is nair and it already just got buffed.

wicked tusk
drowsy arch
#

do u guys know any combos off of jab1, jab2 down attack, ground bounce?

#

i don't know what to follow up the ground bounce with

#

or what's a good option for a dodge read if there is no follow up?

nair can used as starter combo too

drowsy arch

well u can't do a double ground bounce now

Ohhhhhh dash attack is a good idea

i didnt know batman had weakened built in, and that bugs rocket and safe broke armor

Uhhh

Safe doesnt rocket does

icy umbra

it says "the safe can be hit, hurling it into enemies and breaking armor"

tiny comet
#

Finds clip*

icy umbra
#

also, it says in the description of safe that its destroyed by moves that break armor. there is no reason that 2 stacks of rythm or dash attack with 2 fast 2 block isnt breaking safe.

#

im just saying that thats what the moves says.

#

if it doesnt, thats good.

tiny comet
#

They changed safes properties in a previous patch

icy umbra
#

so they just didnt change the text

tiny comet
#

Which why armor break moves doesnt break safe

#

It has like singular seperate hit points

lapis lynx

Yeah, safe takes a certain amount of hits to break

tiny comet

Hit it with 3 seperate moves it’ll break

what are you doing that isnt true?

hold on ill clip it and watch it back maybe

so i just dodge in with a sair or if im grounded i uptilt

I like to charge up neutral punch if he wants to follow up on his balls too

Use up special ball to stuff his air approaches and follow up

And air bash helps vs lebron

Sair isnt the best vs lebron

But you gotta maintain dance

#

When and when not to dance

Do not get hit by his up air and ball-less sair and side special

Let him whiff shoulder charge wait for him to dodge then punish cause garnet cant reliably punish his bash unless he’s out of meter

Hey guys, I'm new here. I've been playing some Garnet recently, and though I like the character it's clear that the devs aren't putting as much time into finetuning her as they are other characters. For a character that only has two (very slow) projectiles, surprisingly limited reach, and a cooldown stance (effectively) she should be faster. Her first ground melee attack should have more reach and her air melee first attack needs to execute quicker. I drop combos because both her special projectiles have too much startup as do some of her regular moves. She also needs to be able to cancel out of more of her moves. She is essentially a boxer and the ability to cancel/weave more than other characters would help give her an edge that she is sorely lacking. The patch didn't do much to help her. I got Power Puff Girls doing two moves before I can get off one, lol!

lapis lynx
#

She got some good buffs this patch

slim musk
#

Yup

lapis lynx
#

And her new perk opens up new options

exotic hemlock
#

so essentially you shouldn’t just be jabbing because that jab is slow and can not hit anyone

#

you should just nair and then jab

#

her off cooldown moves are gonna be your friend as her up special can kill anyone above 90 percent and can easily be follow by jab

fleet birch
#

Also do 1v1 with a good garnet player u learn a lot from that

spring mason
#

I've been testing the new perk out but I still think she needs to be quicker to take full advantage of it, especially as she doesn't have the reach or projectile arsenal of other characters. I use nair and melee into cooldown up/special a lot but a lot of other characters have 360 attacks, quicker projectiles, etc. Don't get me wrong, I'm still winning matches with her, but she needs to be quicker and have a few more tools.

#

I also recognize that I still have a lot to learn with Garnet.

tiny comet
#

You can always rocket fist the batterang too stalemate it

exotic hemlock
#

true

#

it’s just that combo that’s annoying

If he slides or dashes you can down attack charge it too
