I do get some good long sets in with folks, but it's a toss up. I get declined a lot lol, I'm guessing cuz of my win odds or win/loss ratio, which I have no idea what it is. I wish we could see it.

Some folks get scared to play, but I'm like, we're here to test the netcode not to pussy out and not play. I like to learn match ups, but will admit it gets tiring always losing. No matter how well I try and play against a better opponent, I find myself losing often to footsies which I believe is my weakness.

I think another thing might be people searching to find particular friends, when I'm trying to get matched up with a friend I decline everyone. Honestly, I don't even look at win/loss as an option. I accept everything, even if we just played and they chose next opponent. So far, I'm accepting all pings but I'm sure that I'll stop doing that in the full version

Same. I think the win/loss odds makes people decline and much more scrubs are on since the last beta key release. They probably lose a couple and then leave to everyone. I don't care about losing though. Hell I LIKE losing lol. Pushes me to figure out what I'm doing wrong and adjust. But even then some people get tired of bodying you and move on. Works both ways lol.

I typically do a best of 3 so I can move on and test my connection against more players. If I notice a TYM name I'll play a few more games.

Great spacing yes, but I wouldn't call F2 OH into combo/F2 TD a good 50/50.

Chars in the game get 35%+ from a low or OH option. Its nothing we haven't seen.

Like I said before its a BETA chill tf out.

That's what I'm saying. You have characters with much better rewards and both options can be made safe.

f2 is a really good move as a spacing tool. But using takedown to 50/50 with it? You better not get read, is all I say.

It's a good thing to use sparingly. But eventually the person will say fuck it and actually block low. Then you die.

Where did you see me type anything about f2's OH into Takedown? I simply said that f2 was already good and this change that MAY stay has made it even better.

If anyone needs to chill, it's you. You're calling someone (not me, I know) an idiot over a fucking video game. Yet it's others that need to chill?

Why do you keep saying only Slide as if he doesn't have a low starter and an OH starter to mix in as a combo starting 50/50?

Looking for a low starter, an OH starter, and an OH to Low TD, while EX Spear can make things safe, and F2 alone is safe on block against a lot of cast, and both lead to another restand, into another 50/50, and slide is + enough now to make oki 50/50's, is what people are talking about. Not just F2~slide in a vacuum.

Dont forget sweep now being cancellable. So an overhead option and low option, both break armor on oki because double hitting, and both have extended hitboxes with no hurtboxes because they are weapons. Ninjutsu on paper is looking a little dumb but I will reserve judgement

I'm really wondering if the change to his b4 will stick. That's a little insane. I'd also have to wonder why it's only for him.

What the hell is his OH starter...f4? Maaaaaaaaaaaaaan.

b3 would be kewl shit if you couldn't fuzzy to deal with it and f2. Also takedown is +15, but being a knockdown means you still have to read the oki. So the 50/50 aspect isn't really there.

The move is good, no doubt. But the buff is overstated heavily, honestly.

Well it looks like NRS is universally buffing sweeps including Kung Jins (so you guys are gonna love Ferra Torr if BOTH their sweeps get buffed alongside what else they are getting) and PPJ is going around with his big leg talk so F4s look like they are getting universally buffed too. I guess since ninjitsus is probably the only B4 that hits teice they thought it would be cool. I mean it is cool but its gonna be a pain to deal with

F2 is Mid/OH in Ninj. You're guessing between it and B3. While also watching for TD. F2 is fast enough where most humans in an actual paced match aren't gonna be prepared to fuzzy Low/OH/Low in a row all the time. That's just not how matches will play out and I think you know that already.

And if you're saying there's no 50/50 aspect on oki after being +15 then there's no 50/50 oki in the entire game.

I honestly don't think he will be overpowered. He just seems really good. Ill admit it if I turn out to be wrong but I don't see scorpion being as good as say.. Cage, Liu, Jax, etc...

But bud, it's a beta to test the online play. Can't really judge just from playing 1 person for 2 hours.
