And easy to escape

#

You can do that combo on the di that you want but you got to follow the di perfectly

#

Or they will get out

#

Its this

#

I got 2

cyan whale
#

Most Gizmo players I play against just camp with arrow, popcorn, and music notes

subtle lotus
#

Jab, arrow, jump, arrow, up special, arrow, up special, dodge cancel into up air, or up air

subtle lotus
#

But i like to rush down a lil bit

cyan whale
#

That’s fair. I do the same with T&J

subtle lotus
#

Ik, they got to set up his popcorn and music notes

#

While they are charging the arrow

#

Im not complaining about him

#

Im just mad at the meta

#

Im at Diamond 5

#

And ik it will be hard to rank master with all of this meta

#

I dont get good mus with T&J in ranked

#

And the stages are so bad

cyan whale
cyan whale
#

Or at least be wider

subtle lotus
#

Theres stages when you got an crazy disadvantage with T&J

#

And the adventure time one

#

They should introduce an mechanic when you can control

#

Your jerry to go through the platforms and dynamite too

cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

Its so annoying

subtle lotus
#

We got an crazy advantage on big stages

cyan whale
#

I mean, yeah but the stage isn’t so small to the point where the blast zones are right next to the stage like Dexters

subtle lotus
#

Idk why the people complain about the paddle combo string

cyan whale
#

Or Cromulons ceiling

subtle lotus
#

Its just skill issue

#

Its super diable

#

And easy to punish

#

And got no combo starters

#

And you need an mix up to do the paddle combo

#

It wont get nerfed

cyan whale
#

But like on whiff it’s death

subtle lotus
#

You can get out even if your character its big

cyan whale
#

I haven’t escaped even once while playing Jason

subtle lotus
#

You got to do an mix with dis

#

I prove it

subtle lotus
#

Its complicated

cyan whale
#

Maybe I’m just DI’ing incorrectly

subtle lotus
#

But you can do it

subtle lotus
#

You got to mix it

#

So the T&J cant read you

cyan whale
#

Which direction tho?

subtle lotus
#

Then he can get heavy punish

subtle lotus
#

You cant just hold one direction

#

Its an mix up of di's

cyan whale
#

Should I be trying to hold the opposite direction of where he’s moving?

subtle lotus
#

Di, up side

#

Thdn when he turn around you can di out

#

If you di up

#

Its harder and could escape earlier

#

People just di out

#

And thats why they get heavy combo

cyan whale
# subtle lotus If you di up

I’ve been trying to DI up and it hasn’t worked. But I’ll try to DI diagonally up and see if that works better

subtle lotus
#

Or you could do an mix, when your T&J its trying to turn around you can hold the opposite direction upwards

subtle lotus
#

Its hard to di the paddle if the T&J follows up

#

They should nerf that and make it harder like more precise but keep the combo in game

cyan whale
#

Honestly paddle isn’t the issue with what makes T&J strong

#

It’s Jerry shot

subtle lotus
#

Jerry shot cant get nerfed

#

Its ok

#

And paddle its an mix up tool and di easy

cyan whale
#

I’m not saying it should

subtle lotus
#

And can be punish so hard on wiff

cyan whale
#

I’m saying that paddle isn’t what makes T&J good

subtle lotus
#

T&J its super balanced right now

#

And we got bad frame data

subtle lotus
cyan whale
#

Yeah T&J seems fine balance wise. He’s like a solid A tier character. Strong but not broken

subtle lotus
#

They should give the ability to heavy characters to di easily from the paddle like small characters

#

And he will be totally balanced and skill

cyan whale
#

I know the feel

subtle lotus
#

Why people complain about that

#

Its super reactable

cyan whale
#

Because they’re bad

cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

People lit just cry about fair things bc they'are so bad

#

But im so afraid

#

Bc pfg lit removed the stripe 50/50 with di

#

Bc of the skill issue of this people

#

And complaining a lot instead of improving his gameplay

cyan whale
#

It wasn’t broken

#

It was cool

#

Stripe wasn’t even top 10 pre patch

subtle lotus
#

Fr

#

They nerf the fair characters and buff arya stark

#

Thats how works for pfg

cyan whale
#

Like I legitimately feel what VoiD was talking about when he said he’s afraid to share new tech because it’ll get nerfed or removed

subtle lotus
#

They lit remove the tech and the cool stuff bc the people dont khow how to play

cyan whale
#

Like stop nerfing mid tiers and instead buff the low tiers

subtle lotus
#

This will become an monkey game

subtle lotus
cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

And black adam

#

Also wonder woman and arya

cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

Bro its like the best character in the game

cyan whale
#

I’m not asking for many changes

subtle lotus
#

No weakness

#

Arya got to get nerfed

cyan whale
#

They’re easily the top 3 rn imo

subtle lotus
trim zealot
#

Wonder Woman is the best for sure.

subtle lotus
#

And finn needs an lil nerf on his grounded game besides that kill arya

subtle lotus
cyan whale
#

I think T&J does decently against Morty, but it’s literal hell for other characters to fight him

cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

But morty against other characters its lit the hell in earth

subtle lotus
#

You khow i just want betlejuice to be the second T&J

cyan whale
#

Literally any non-projectile character has no way of dealing with Morty it’s crazy

subtle lotus
#

Like an tech character with a lot of stuff

trim zealot
cyan whale
#

I mainly play 1s, but I’ve been playing 2s more recently

trim zealot
#

Oh I see.

subtle lotus
cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

Im diamond 5 with T&J

cyan whale
#

I’m trying to get every character I play to diamond in both 1s and 2s

subtle lotus
#

Shaggy its op too

#

Tbh his dash attack its broken

#

His an broken character

cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

Like top 3 better than finn

#

Finn lit just needs an nerf on his grounded game

cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

Finn its not better than shaggy

cyan whale
#

Finn definitely is

subtle lotus
#

His tods are super easy to di

#

And are hard to perform

cyan whale
#

Guaranteed zero to death with the backpack perk regardless of DI if done correctly

trim zealot
#

Finn has the same combo game and damage output with more mobility and massive disjoints.

cyan whale
#

Finn has more range than every character except Jack

subtle lotus
#

I played finn at an high lv and its not even near to shaggy

subtle lotus
cyan whale
#

???

subtle lotus
#

Finn its solid, not broken his s tier

#

But his combos

#

Zero 0 deaths

#

Are super hard to perform

trim zealot
#

So?

subtle lotus
#

His only broken mechanic

cyan whale
#

Finn’s neutral is mid but his advantage is like top 3 and he kills off of one jab

subtle lotus
#

Its his spammy grounded game holding jab and up tilt

subtle lotus
#

His like an T&J but even worst

#

Bc he dont have an read di move like him

#

His combo game its lit read di and dodges

cyan whale
#

Worse Finn players don’t know how to zero to death

trim zealot
cyan whale
#

But it’s super consistent with practice

subtle lotus
#

Finn got 0 consistent combos

#

Its more improving in the game

#

And the only one that people spam its

cyan whale
#

Charged utilt -> nair -> sair 1 -> up special

subtle lotus
cyan whale
#

Kills if you’re hit near the ledge

cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

He got non true combo

#

No

stoic schooner
subtle lotus
#

You can di every direction the finn combos

#

And you can di the backpack

cyan whale
#

You can DI backpack down to live longer

subtle lotus
#

And all the zero 0 deaths

cyan whale
#

But if he has like 800 coins, then backpack kills at like 60 near the top blast zone regardless of DI

subtle lotus
#

He lit got non true zero 0 deaths, his needs an pro player to clap you

cyan whale
#

Most people don’t DI backpack correctly I’ll give you that

subtle lotus
#

Backpack with 800 coims dont kill that early

#

You need like 2k coins to kill at that percent

cyan whale
#

Maybe against Iron Giant

subtle lotus
#

Your saying thst bc you dont khow how to counter finn

#

He dont kill with 800 coins

#

Atleast your at the top of the blastzone

cyan whale
#

I’ve played bad Finn players

subtle lotus
#

I played lostgriff

cyan whale
#

It’s the good ones who actually know how to combo are the ones that are trouble

subtle lotus
#

One of the best finn players

stoic schooner
subtle lotus
subtle lotus
#

But i was testing iron giant

cyan whale
#

Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if Finn combos are more weight dependent and don’t work as easily on light characters

subtle lotus
#

So it doesnt matter

trim zealot
subtle lotus
#

His not bsd

#

His not bad

#

His s tier

#

Bc of his grounded game

#

But his aerials zero 0 deaths are non consistent

#

So his not that crazy

#

I always di the finn combos

cyan whale
#

I mean, I know Shaggy loses the matchup because Fin. Outranges him like 3x with a better ground game and better combos

subtle lotus
#

So i got no troubles with him

stoic schooner
subtle lotus
#

Out and up

cyan whale
#

But I’m not downplaying Finn when I say I’ve been hit with multiple zero to deaths with optimal DI

subtle lotus
#

As i said you could di every direction finn combos

stoic schooner
subtle lotus
#

It doesnt matter

subtle lotus
cyan whale
stoic schooner
subtle lotus
#

Thats di toward

#

I di out

#

Di away

#

So you cant get combo

stoic schooner
#

Wat

subtle lotus
#

Go to training

#

Put the bot on dodge away after hitstun

#

Then up tilt

#

And you will see what im talking about

#

Finn its an di based and dodge read combo game

#

He got an insane kill early potential

#

But nothing that you cant di

stoic schooner
cyan whale
#

Forward

stoic schooner
subtle lotus
#

Forward

cyan whale
#

In the direction Finn is facing

subtle lotus
#

Yes

#

You go way near so you can combo

cyan whale
#

Say Finn is facing left and hits you with charged utilt, you DI up and left

subtle lotus
#

But if you di bacward you'll get the finn bnb zero 0 death

subtle lotus
#

If you want to di up you can

#

You can di on every direction finn

#

He got no true zero 0 death so it doesnt matter

#

His combo game its ok for me

#

But i hate his grounded game

cyan whale
#

I’ll be honest, Finn only really needs 2 changes. Nair knockback reduction and Finn travels less distance to compensate and a nerf to the backpack perk. And then he’s fine

subtle lotus
#

Bro its so spammy

#

He lit just need the same nerf as tazz

#

Up tilt

cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

Thats all

stoic schooner
cyan whale
#

I’ve also asked for that change

subtle lotus
#

He lit just need that, and he become an fair charscter

trim zealot
cyan whale
#

Finn without being able to indefinitely charge the longest reaching jab in the game would be nice

subtle lotus
subtle lotus
#

His aerials are fine for me i mean its easy to punish his zero 0 deaths so im not mad

stoic schooner
cyan whale
#

People complain about Jack’s jab being slightly longer than the animation but like you can at least hit his foot

subtle lotus
#

Jason jab are huge

cyan whale
stoic schooner
cyan whale
#

Like as annoying as backpack spam is, I don’t think the move should be gutted

trim zealot
subtle lotus
#

Finn its fine just nerf his jab charge and up tilt and we are ok

cyan whale
subtle lotus
subtle lotus
#

Fr bro

trim zealot
#

That’s crazy

cyan whale
#

But currently it’s too easy

subtle lotus
trim zealot
cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

And his not easy. The noob player lit spam up tilt and nair but its not consistent

stoic schooner
cyan whale
#

That would just remove his entire disadvantage

trim zealot
subtle lotus
#

Finn its not an easy charactee bc you got to read the di and 3 dodges to kill one time, his skill but the deal its his grounded spammy game

cyan whale
#

Like yeah gem was cool in beta, but it has absolutely no place in the relaunch

subtle lotus
#

I played finn and his really built kike that

subtle lotus
#

They lit just monkey spam jab then up tilt and nair into backpack

#

Lit the easiest zero 0 deaths and easiest to di

cyan whale
#

To perform anyway

subtle lotus
#

But that its so easy too

cyan whale
#

That’s what I meant

subtle lotus
#

But well no one get hit and die om thst combo

cyan whale
#

And he still has a guaranteed zero to death from the green ball in rage mode lmao

stoic schooner
#

Di

subtle lotus
#

Fr

#

If you dont khow how to di thats the nightmare for noobs

stoic schooner
trim zealot
subtle lotus
#

They got like trillions of lose by an finn zero 0 death, without khowing that you can di out

cyan whale
#

People eat extended combos from Jack because they don’t know to DI up on jab dtilt to avoid the ground bounce

stoic schooner
cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

Im pro from brawhalla

cyan whale
#

You need to DI up

trim zealot
stoic schooner
cyan whale
#

DI out will still cause you to ground bounce and he gets a guaranteed dodge jab

subtle lotus
#

But yeah same

#

Dbfz was my game

#

But now its death

#

And i tried street figther 5

#

But its slow

stoic schooner
cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

Anime figthers are goated

subtle lotus
cyan whale
#

And Rivals 1 in there somewhere

subtle lotus
#

I want rivals 2 so much

cyan whale
#

I prefer something more akin to Tekken

subtle lotus
#

At high lv they are complicated

cyan whale
#

For traditional fighters

subtle lotus
#

Bc its hard to block

cyan whale
#

It’s a turnoff for me

subtle lotus
#

They are hard as hell

cyan whale
#

I don’t want to slog through the lower levels to eventually make it out of mash fest

subtle lotus
#

You dont imagine how hard its blocking on an anime figthers

#

At high lv

cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

Well gtg

#

I just hope T&J got an buff

#

On an frying pan string

#

I want it like in the beta

stoic schooner
cyan whale
#

Yeah unfortunately I think it’s more likely that paddle gets nerfed because people can’t deal with it even though it’s not what makes T&J good

subtle lotus
#

Its so punishable on wiff

cyan whale
#

People complain enough, so it might happen

subtle lotus
#

Got no combo starter

#

Got to read di to combo with him

stoic schooner
subtle lotus
#

Lit skill issue of the people

cyan whale
stoic schooner
subtle lotus
#

I dont think they will do thst

#

Like you khow pfg always listen to void

stoic schooner
subtle lotus
#

You khow, there its lit no reason to they to do that

cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

First if they wanted to do that

cyan whale
#

Because VoiD has been adamant about not nerfing cool stuff

subtle lotus
#

They probably do it on this samurai jack patch

#

And they dont

stoic schooner
subtle lotus
#

They just buff him

subtle lotus
#

I mean pfg should prove it by himself

cyan whale
#

One of the very few VoiD rant videos

subtle lotus
#

Instead of listening the yapping of the community

#

I think they wont nerf it

#

Its totally fair

#

I think they will adjust the di to the bigger character to escape easily

#

Like light characters

cyan whale
subtle lotus
#

But with characters they are totally wrong

#

They should nerf and buff the characters by themself or contact with pro players

#

I dont think T&J its going to get an nerf

#

They will adjust the di to heavy characters escape easily and buff some things

cyan whale
#

I’m just hoping they make Velma a real character next balance patch

stoic schooner
#

Im dreading what their gonna do next patch

#

Due to people acting like children in the community (ik i sound like a broken record

worldly stone
#

Even on the combo?

#

cuz im using jerry just for help in the combos

#

like when I throw Jerry

#

I throw it then I use the pan too combo at the start

#

It works even with the tennis balls? or the 3 dynamite

#

because I actually want more speed than power

#

or both

cyan whale
cyan whale

#

that's why you are using pugilist?

I wonder how many master tnjs there are

im hard stuck in diamond right now

cyan whale
fiery rune
#

OK SO @EVERY TOM AND JERRY MAIN

#

is the infinte combo true some people say yes some say no

primal tangle
#

mash jump out of it

trim zealot
# fiery rune is the infinte combo true some people say yes some say no

There are no infinites on this character. I’ve heard rumors of a “loop” but all I know is that it uses up tilt and Jerry shot. I’ve labbed a combo that can do anywhere from 60%-90+% using both (and more) moves though, depending on the character. It might not be 100% true given bots don’t DI though.

cyan whale
#

Infinite in this case is a bit of a misnomer. The loop isn’t infinite infinite, but you can get a significant amount of damage depending on the character. Some characters can get out easy and others take like 100

trim zealot
#

What is it?

#

Nobody’s told me the specifics yet.

cyan whale
#

I haven’t practiced it myself much, but I believe it’s utilt and cancelling it with Jerry shot on the third hit into another utilt and then you walk over to pick up Jerry again and repeat. It’s also dependent on stage positioning, so you’ll get much less damage near the ledge

trim zealot
#

That’s crap move variety. I’m not surprised it’s inconsistent.

cyan whale
#

Yeah I mean I don’t really like to use loops personally. I’ve always just gone for the full utilt to uair

trim zealot
#

Also you can turn around mid up tilt and still have it connect til hit 3. The timing can be tricky but it should work.

cyan whale
#

But like you get so much more damage with the loop (tho it’s character dependent)

cyan whale
#

From personal experience, when T&J players try to turn around, it’s easier to escape

trim zealot
#

The combo I labbed last weekend seems far more consistent than what I’m hearing now. It “works” to varying degrees. Characters like Jason, shaggy, and Batman get stomped by it, but characters like Rick and Morty make it very difficult due to their hitstun animations. Arya is the hardest to perform it on, and I’ve only been able to get 60% true on her.

#

Ironically gizmo is also one of the easier characters for it.

#

Also new development, @stoic schooner, it can 0-death Batman, shaggy, gizmo (very easy on him), probably iron giant, Jason (one of the harder ones to death), and possibly Rick and morty if you get lucky with their hitsun animations. Arya and Superman are impossible to kill with it, but Superman will take significant damage. This is all assuming no DI. I would like to test this with a human sometime.

#

You just need to include some down airs before Jerry shot at later %s.

stoic schooner
trim zealot
#

As did I.

#

What did you find?

stoic schooner
#

Im trying to get my hands on the loops

trim zealot
#

Oh, ok.

#

I can try and record then send an updated version of the (atm) optimal combo later if it helps. I’ll probably do the version that works on Batman, shaggy, and Jack body type characters. I can do it again for heavies if need be. Gizmo should be super easy since both methods work on him, and he dies earlier than the others.

#

wait. are we gonna get cyber tnj for free?

#

the 1000 cyber tickets covers the price for it

#

Does anyone know how to quick attack cancel with TnJ

storm smelt
#

Quick attack? U mean his side light?

#

Like with the hammer?

stoic schooner
cyan whale
#

Attack cancel what attack?

stoic schooner
storm smelt
#

Idk if multiversus has that

#

Pretty sure it’s called a Kara cancel but you can’t do that with paddle once you use paddle you gotta wait for the whole move to finish before you can act out of it unless you are hitting with paddle

subtle lotus
storm smelt
#

So after paddle do jump and shoot Jerry directly downwards into paddle again and repeat

cyan whale
# stoic schooner Paddle

Cancel the third hit of paddle (the one before the final hit) with jump and then Jerry shot downwards. Then, you can land and paddle again to scoop them up and walk over to pick up Jerry again during paddle to continue the loop. It’s character and stage positioning dependent how many loops you get but it ranges from like barely or doesn’t work to zero to death lmao

storm smelt
fiery rune
subtle lotus
#

You can escape easily

fiery rune
#

that what yall told me it aint working lol

subtle lotus
#

If your character its to big you may not get out as easy as an small one

#

They should do lit one change to tom and jerry, make heavy character di out of the paddle easily like small ones

wraith dove
#

Do you all just cheat and use a lagswitch or something? I've never met a T&J who I didn't lag against and the lag mysteriously seemed to only affect me

subtle lotus
#

We dont use it

#

Its lit just follow di

#

But thered character that cant escape as easy as they could

unkempt sinew
#

I've fought like 8 Jack's today on Dexter's Lab where he can kill you at like 20% 💀

#

I hate that stage so much as Tom

wraith dove
#

T&J has a winning MU though so you don't have to worry

wraith dove
subtle lotus
#

I get a lot of opponents qith lag switch

#

And i cant reporth them

#

Report them

#

@wraith dove T&J paddle its bad tho so you cant complain about it

#

His only problem its that its hard to di out

#

If your character its big

#

But most of the time

#

People escape from me

wraith dove
#

You can't DI out of it lmao

subtle lotus
#

Spamming up dodge

#

And di up

subtle lotus
#

Besides that its an super bad move anyway

#

No combo starter

wraith dove
#

Even if you can get close to DI out, it doesn't matter because shooting Jerry keeps them in

#

It's busted

subtle lotus
#

A ton of end lag

wraith dove
#

But that's not what I was talking about lmao

subtle lotus
#

Super punisheable on wiff

subtle lotus
#

But when you do the jerry shot if he do it to early

#

You can di away when you get hit of the jerry shot

#

And dont get an follow up with paddle

subtle lotus
#

it not depends

#

we got no inf

#

if its an inf its true

#

and we dont got an true inf

#

you can di paddle

#

and di out when you get hit by jerry shot

primal tangle
trim zealot
#

Into an attack, jump, or dodge. It’s integral to most of our combos.

#

But on whiff you cannot cancel the attack at all.

subtle lotus
trim zealot
#

Thank you.

stoic schooner
#

IVE FINALLY KNOW HOW TO CANCEL ON THE 3RD BIT ON THE PADDLE LETS GOO

summer rivet
#

jerry fr

trim zealot
#

You can technically do this without a neutral special button but it requires almost frame perfect timing.

stoic schooner
trim zealot
#

You should figure out most combos pretty quickly now that you have the up tilt cancel down.

#

You can also cancel jab 1, 2, or 3 (mostly 3 for T&J), into whatever.

#

Useful as another combo starter/extender.

stoic schooner
trim zealot
#

Just personal preference.

#

I just have one more recommendation for combos on T&J. Practice the timing on using tennis balls after hitting a down angle Jerry shot for some conversions and combo enders.

#

Using “loops” will stale Jerry shot and down air to the point where you’ll have to call it quits or your opponent can dodge then punish.

#

That’s why I mix in jabs to my “loops” on characters who can be hit by the jab conversion.

stoic schooner
worldly stone
#

then ok

#

I gonna check this out

#

thank you

#

also

#

one more thing

#

Jerry die in how many hits?

cyan whale
trim zealot
stoic schooner
trim zealot
#

It makes a good kill confirm at high %s off a stray Jerry hit in addition to being a good combo ender.

subtle lotus
#

Guys its like hard to grind T&J

#

On ranked now

#

Im at diamod 5

#

And i always get matched with op characters

#

And well i get an crazy disadvantage

#

Sometimes i manage to win some wins in a row

#

And when im about to reach next tier

#

I get matchmaked with master top 10 shaggy...

#

And i gain 5 points per win and lose 20 per loss

#

Ranked its so unbalacend

stoic schooner
nocturne ferry
#

I'm currently at the end of sliver and would be gold by now but maintenance stopped me lmao

subtle lotus
#

Guys we got an chance against arya stark lets go

stoic schooner
nocturne ferry
#

now i'm gold

#

18+ for 2-1 match

#

bruh

trim zealot
#

Nvm checked it. Honestly I don’t think it’ll make much of a difference. Most of her combos start from jab and down air, so down tilt being a little more punishable makes almost no difference.

#

I like the Morty changes better. Dirt was annoying AF in neutral.

stoic schooner
subtle lotus
#

Down tilt its more punishable

#

So he cant just spam it

junior mountain
#

Smith main here, do you guys have any advice for relatively consistently being able to deal with T&J? It feels like you guys have a faster answer for everything I can possibly respond with

latent thicket
#

what parts do you really struggle with the most

keen swan
#

If that helps

junior mountain
keen swan
#

Either normal neutral special or neutral special with the one shot perk

junior mountain
keen swan
#

I think so

#

I can go test it in a moment

keen swan
latent thicket
#

and perfect height aerial down special

#

also being able to use dash cancel jab or iad sair are also both good options for approaching

#

personally, id recommend using multishot vs t&j just because it'll deal with the projectiles easier (and its faster than hand cannon)

#

jerry does die to dair jab and i think 2 shots of multishot

#

but if you're going to try and kill jerry, keep in mind tom can send tennis balls which would launch you up and towards him or a rocket which would just launch you far away

#

both home in on jerry no matter where tom is

junior mountain
#

Really appreciate the tips. I'll try them out

latent thicket
#

also if you just need mu expierience and im not editting i got you

I've been lately enjoying good jacks in my lobby

hidden verge
#

Anyone find any good TnJ combos recently

#

Or are we still stuck with paddle jab down tilt and paddle down Jerry shot?

keen swan
#

Literally just lost a set 3-2 to that 😭

#

I’m still lost on the DI on that

#

It doesn’t feel like DIing up does anything

hidden verge
#

You gotta di close to tom

#

Also tom just blew up at 47 against a shaggy

#

Feels great

keen swan
#

It just got me in more combos

#

Dude was just spending the whole game hiding behind cheese trap

hidden verge
#

Did he predict paddle?

keen swan
#

Yeah

hidden verge
#

Oh then he’s just good

keen swan
#

For some reason he paddled off of cheese trap

hidden verge
#

Just genuinely nothing you can do

#

If he predict paddles

keen swan

😔

As in paddles behind himself

#

Your cooked

At least he was respectful

I found a true combo

But lord this character is a pain for me to fight

But only for heavy characters

It’s not even like he’s broken just very very boring for me to fight most the time

I’ll send it to ya if you want it

keen swan
#

Yeah no T&J doesn’t need nerfs

#

In fact he doesn’t need to be changed

#

I guess he’s just gonna be that one platform fighter character that’s annoying to fight

# hidden verge Anyone find any good TnJ combos recently

I have a good set of combos I’ve labbed but don’t know how DI affects them. It’s mostly the same with a few alterations to different weight and body types. The only 3 character’s I wouldn’t recommend using it on are Arya, Rick, and Morty. It’s an altered version of the infamous “loops” that’ve been making their way around the discord.

hidden verge
#

Proceed

trim zealot
#

Instead of just paddle> Jerry shot> repeat, it’s with some jabs and down airs mixed in, and I finish with tennis ball shot into up air.

#

It can 0-death no DI on a considerable amount of characters.

hidden verge
#

Sounds complicated

trim zealot
#

It’s harder than the normal “loops” but ends up dealing more damage or just kills from 0.

#

I had a video in #combos but it’s likely buried now.

#

When I get back home I’ll try and record the main 3 variants of the combo.

#

If you want an @ to find them I can do that too.

hidden verge
#

Give Jerry more corks

trim zealot
#

What do you mean?

hidden verge
#

Give him 5 corks

trim zealot
#

You mean like more than 3 after being shot?

hidden verge
#

And let him have 3 corks when he’s with your teammate

trim zealot
#

Between those and the 3 tennis balls on Tom I think 3 corks is fine tbh.

#

Tennis ball shots give Jerry an active hitbox.

#

And you have rocket to also defend Jerry.

hidden verge
#

Give tom 10 dynamite sticks

#

No joke tho

#

Give tom 3 sticks with dynamite split

#

And 5 with well rounded

trim zealot
#

I think it’s fine with the low cooldown it has for turning 1 stick into 3. It’s great utility for getting to ledge safely or as an anti-air.

#

It’s annoying not having 3 “don’t approach me or you’ll lose neutral” button, but if you play your cards right you’ll only need 1.

#

Especially if you play around lingering tennis balls and mouse trap.

#

Besides, people would cry out for even more nerfs than they are now if T&J got buffs, projectile buffs no less.

#

T&J are like A tier as is, probably at the edge of S tier. I would prefer for other characters being buffed to the same level than make an already great character one of the undisputed best, or nerf said character because “projectiles are annoying, wah wah wah”.

#

You get way more tools to counter projectiles on literally every single character in this game than most traditional and platform fighters out there. If you’re losing to projectile play in multiversus 9/10 it’s a skill issue.

how do i chase down tom

keen swan
#

Yknow I noticed I only struggle on T&J on small maps

#

Big maps like sky arena I’m quite good at beating him on actually

trim zealot
#

Some of our combos can be cut short if we don’t turn around our up tilt. Otherwise it’s counterintuitive since we should have an easier time when we have more room to work with our projectiles and zoning.

What does high five do? Does it destroy or reflect them? I haven’t played many Finns since beta.

Doesn’t work on cheese trap tho

#

Guys, how do you deal with Jack?

feral snow
# slender matrix Guys, how do you deal with Jack?

For me I simply have to keep my distance and set up traps(DS). Since jack is a bruiser he needs to be up close to do damage. Best thing is keep distance and abuse Jerry every time Jack try’s to close the distance. If jack starts to stay away then you can use your fishing rod. Down Attack is also very good at keeping him away when he try’s to close the gap. T&J has to truly be a Mage when it comes to Jack

how the hell on a ditto tom

#

the game let opponent hit me with poggo on the floor or the pan on a big range

#

but when i do it the game just spit on my face

hidden verge
#

You can stall mid air to stop a combo

#

Or use it as a recovery tool

#

You get 3 sticks

#

And that’s 3 bouncing traveling sticks they have to dodge away from

#

Even use it as an edge guard tool

#

Drop some sticks on their head

#

Split IS good

#

But it’s more of a get off me tool

#

Not a good utility tool

stoic schooner
hidden verge
#

Corks do that

#

Rocket is more of a protect Jerry tool

stoic schooner
hidden verge
#

Just as soon as you shoot jerry

#

Rocket with him

#

Or cork immediately

#

Saves him 85% of the time

fleet scarab
#

Just got tom and jerry how do you play them?

latent thicket
#

you dont

#

seriously tho just learn the kit and basic combos. Most games you play are mu dependent but if you can get good at camping and forcing your opponent to appraoch you then you're already doing half the work

subtle lotus
#

To aim correctly your jerry

fleet scarab
subtle lotus
#

Do it will take a long time to learn him

#

Completely

fleet scarab
#

how long

subtle lotus
#

Like to master him?

fleet scarab
#

yea

subtle lotus
#

Its smth about experienced

#

Its a lot of time

#

Like 150+ to learn how to use it 100% atleast

#

I got like 300 hours with T&J

fleet scarab
#

can you explain the differences of his power with and without the mouse?

subtle lotus
#

Without jerry you have one of the worst characters in game

#

Bad disadvantage

#

And you got to wait an cooldown to him to revive

subtle lotus
fleet scarab
#

like all of them

#

i know its a lot sorry

hidden verge
#

So basically when Jerry is alive he makes your kit a lot better because he can string your combos a lot better

#

Like with Jerry he has a loop

#

Paddle down Jerry shot

#

Or paddle jump down Jerry shot for smaller opponents

#

That’s your main source of percentages in the early ranges

#

But when Jerry dies

#

You still have combo strings there just significantly worse

#

And none are loops UNLESS the opponent is burnt out

#

For example if the opponent isn’t burnt out paddle into full jab is a good combo

#

But if they are burnt out paddle into single jab and into paddle again is a great combo

#

That’s just a few ways to play without Jerry

#

But fyi without Jerry Tom by himself is one of the worst character in the game

#

If you want me to continue just lmk

#

That’s just his paddle combos

#

I can go into other details and other mini combos

fleet scarab
hidden verge
#

Yeah sure

#

Are you on?

what do u guys think about the new TnJ skin? it's already released in the new rifts, u can play against it in 2nd level

tardy scaffold
#

Tom & Jerry always have some great skins

#

I was surprised to see how well the Cyberpunk look works for them

primal tangle
#

we need 24h to pass

tardy scaffold
#

I think Baker Street and Pirates are probably my favorite variants

#

Tennis and Seaside are pretty good too

#

All of them aside from the Circuit Breaker one are very quality

primal tangle
#

tennis and seaside look the same to me

#

baker street is my fav

#

but I still want zootsuit

#

skin to happen

tardy scaffold
#

What's zootsuit

#

Is that where Tom was wearing a suit or are you referring to something else

#

Ooohhh

#

Now I remember

primal tangle

these 2

together.

tardy scaffold

Interesting

#

I was going to say I wouldn't know how to feel about the two of them having the exact same appearance, but then I remembered the Matrix skins

#

I didnt enter the game

#

So i want to khow

trim zealot
# primal tangle what

If you hit yourself with Jerry cruise missile, Tom will get launched as if he were hit, but takes no damage.

#

Not very useful but maybe you could avoid a punish for using the move to begin with occasionally.

primal tangle
#

you need to be 300IQ to use it as a game mechanic with how they start moving when you start charging rocket

trim zealot
#

You can dodge after aiming Jerry rocket then get in the way of the rocket too, but at that point you’re just free to play neutral like normal.

subtle lotus

#

And remember that, theres some characters that can one shot jerry

trim zealot
subtle lotus
#

To me T&J its an changing playstyle character

#

If your playing an good mu you should play him as an rush down

#

With jerry shots

subtle lotus
#

If its smth like arya you should play him, passive

trim zealot
#

Best projectile character. “Use them as rush down”, bruh.

subtle lotus
stoic schooner
subtle lotus
#

Im an master TnJ

#

Its super good to rush down characters with him

#

Atleast with good mu,s

trim zealot
subtle lotus
#

To aproach with him its using jerry snipes

#

Then looking for the jab

#

Into 50/50 mix up

#

With loop

#

Then you get an paddle string, +100 dmg

#

Following di ofc

trim zealot
#

I’ve played T&J since beta, I know this character in and out. There’s no need to rush down to be successful. It’s much safer to damage with projectiles.

primal tangle
#

the funny part with tnj u can do so many loops depending on the enemy fighter

subtle lotus

Oh yeah the playstyle on the character

#

Its different in 1s and 2s

primal tangle
#

I know.

subtle lotus
#

In 2s the optimum way its to cover with projectiles

subtle lotus
#

But tbh in 1s, its better to jerry snipe spam, looking for the paddle string

subtle lotus
#

Its more opressive

trim zealot
primal tangle
#

2's you need to play for surviving more than you need to play for "damage"

#

But i like rush down more, bc i can get an early stock

#

And rewarded from dmg

trim zealot
subtle lotus
#

But im more vulnerable

trim zealot
#

You just admitted projectile play is better than rush down.

subtle lotus
#

Maybe, but its boring tbh

primal tangle
#

in general it is, but u cant use 1 without the other

trim zealot
#

Then you should’ve just said that lol.

trim zealot
#

It’s one thing to be boring, another to be worse than rush down.

subtle lotus
#

I use both at the same time, its like changing

subtle lotus
trim zealot
#

She’s apparently top tier. I haven’t played as her though, what’s boring about her?

stoic schooner
fleet scarab
#

not to mention with her size shes like a little fly

trim zealot
#

I’m not sure if it’s her size or hurtbox during hitstun, but she does fall out of T&J combos much sooner than other characters. I’ve been trying to lab something more consistent for her with little success atm.

#

I’m leaning towards the hurtbox theory because rick and morty have some weird animations or Z axis shenanigans that cause them to fall out of combos much the same.

Yea well, not every projectile but most projectiles, making 90% of the entirety of multiversus character's projectile useless

And you can take that advantage by sending projectiles since they need to attack melee
