This is so much. I've told you this in chat before, but I don't know if you remember.

First, settle down on a main. If you can't well pick a max of 2 characters you like a lot and use them. Second, practice all your fundamentals with spacing, neutral, and punish being imo the most important. Third, practice your techskill. Not just character specific tech but the ability to put into action your fundamentals. Fourth, toy around with link a bit, learn his weaknesses and such.

this is false ^^^


in actuality, you should just play Lloyd because he's too easy to use and guarantees free wins or your money back

I agree with this not just because Lloyd is broken but because I found Lloyd to be a Link counter if you see him about to use arrow or any projectile hit down B there is a animation that Link makes before he throws his boomerang if you learn that you will be able to down B him out of that too and if he's spamming arrow then you spam nurture B hey if he wants to play like a noob then you can too out noob him! When he uses that spin move don't knock him out of it stand far enough away so you don't get hit buy it and once it ends he will be in a lag animation thats when you hit him with the side B.

Yeah it's best to sit and play one or two mains. Then play every type of character to work on improving to the point you can beat or counter their techniques.

Well, you don't really "main" all of those characters in your sig right? There's no way you can possibly play all of those characters enough unless you just devote a tremendous amount of time to SSF2.

As for what Godreaper says, I agree. If you go through the roster trying to find a character that counters whichever character you need the counter for, you will find that you won't possess the abilities to actually win. You will have way more success sticking with one or two characters and learning the matchup. There is the chance that whichever character you pick is hard countered, but unless your opponent is a top tier player you won't have to worry about the character disparities being evident. The MU itself is important to learn, but the difficulty of the MU is not insurmountable until you reach the highest tier of play. That is to say, a matchup like Naruto vs Falcon (a bad MU for Falcon) will always have room for Falcon to improve (and be able to beat the Naruto) until the Naruto and Falcon reach the top levels of optimization and decision-making.

Well, tbh I don't see why you needed to create a topic to say that you are going to stop playing SSF2 til beta if that is literally all you meant. If you were taking an extended break from the community entirely, that makes more sense to letting people know (which is what everyone thought when they read your farewell).

Plus, you haven't stopped playing SSF2 yet because earlier you were playing SSF2 on SoldeirSunday's stream lol.
