What have you all been playing?

I’ve been grinding on some Mario world kaizo hacks. I’m doing pretty good! Although I don’t think I’m good enough for the new grand poo world 3 that just came out :)

      I main Testament. Bottom 3 character, but I love their playstyle and aesthetic, so I’m in it for the long haul with them.

      Big things for me right now are learning to do an RC or WA off of hit confirms.

        Bottom 3 character

        Nah, in most modern fighting games, the tier lists just don’t matter. Whatever tiers exist in Strive are pretty tight these days, and they mostly always have been. You’re good with whoever you like. I play a character with a white WA (Goldlewis), so I’m using it more as a neutral tool than a combo tool, but yeah, the general flow is just hit 1, hit 2, special move, red RC, then whatever’s good for your character to juggle with. So since you’re blessed with one of the game’s best 6Ps, stain state confirms, and enormous buttons that win neutral against almost everyone, you’re usually doing Slash, Heavy Slash, reaper, RC, and you can just about make up the rest and it won’t matter much. You’ll get that in no time. Go into training mode, practice it against a bot set to block after the first hit. Then when you’ve got that down, set them to block randomly so you can practice confirms.
