Just admit it. Just admit you're fucking bad at video games, or at least too lazy to get good at them. Just admit you can't handle anything mechanically intensive on any level, which is why your 3x3 is full of WRPGs a fucking cripple could play.
Admit you just suck and you're mad that there are literal unga-bunga niggers who'd kick your shit in at these games even if you spent the next year trying to practice them.
Admit you're a loser who barely even plays video games. You just fucking scroll this dying website all day. Like the angry male neckbeard equivalent of a fat depressed chick on instagram or tiktok.
Fuck you. Fuck the 500 replies of copium you're guaranteed to spew onto this thread just because it has this OP image.
It's not about fighting games. It never was. It's about you being unable to take an L, just one fucking L, to save your fucking life. You hate facing your own laziness and incompetence. You lie to yourself by saying it's just a broken system - whether it's fighting games, or dating, or finding financial success, or anything else.
It is literally, fucking literally, a Z shape. How in the absolute fucking FUCK could anyone find a DP difficult to execute. Like holy fucking jesus.
Julian Gomez
what? no, I'm pretty good at fighting games. I'm celestial in strive, not that that means much, but it certainly means I'm not 'too lazy to git gud at them' perhaps I'm not the target audience for this thread.

shut the fuck up talentless faggot what have you accomplished nothing, less than nothing yet you post this like you're hot shit kill yourself you worthless specimen
Matthew Jones
>what have you accomplished >nothing how could you possibly know this? do you know OP in real life?
Hudson Hall
please attach increasingly more complex inputs/combos to you posts
Charles Nelson
I admit it. I'm awful at games. I struggle in games in ways that cant be trained learned or taught. I have the reaction time of a dead squirrel. There's always some aspect of a game or meta game that I don't account for and get my shit rocked. I do worse than people with far fewer hours than me. Hours do not matter. I use cheats in competitive games just to be slightly above average. I play against computers in fighting games because I hit a wall in every fighting game. I Have 7 times more Ls than Ws. I'm bad at games.
Hudson King
Okay. I'm lazy and don't want to learn a fighting game. And even if I did, I'd likely get frustrated when losing and quit.
Now what?

i am bad at games but im good enough to enjoy elden ring and understand that "attack opportunities", input reading, and delayed attacks are all shitter cope
Matthew Baker
I'm also transgender
Jason Reed
i have more trouble NOT inputting a dp :(
Angel Powell
If it was a Z shape it could actually be difficult, it's far simplier than that and the retarded Z notation is what confuses people
Mason Brown
i hate charge motions
Michael Gray
>retarded Z notation is what confuses people How? I don't understand this complaint at all. I feel like people have just gotten called scrubs for whining about the input itself for so long they just switched to whining about the symbol without actually improving their understanding at all. The motion is >neutral to forward >forward to down >down to down forward If you draw lines between those points it makes a Z. How much simpler could it be?
Juan Jackson
I try asking for help or advice and you nigger monkeys start shouting me down and belittling me, and then you wonder why your clown genre is dying.
Matthew Morris
LOOK ITS NOT FUCKING HARD YOU TILT RIGHT, RELEASE, TILT DOWN AND BRING IT UP TO THE CORNER
what the fuck is strike/throw? I swear fgc nignogs come up with a new meme term every year
Gavin Wood
>do the move without issue >the game is still fucked by tryhards and bad online play it's over just give me chun li's pussy on a platter and call it a day
it's like a 20+ year old term that describes exactly what it sounds like You could either do a strike or a throw You avoid a strike by blocking, but then you get thrown You avoid a throw by jumping, but then you get hit thus, strike/throw. Also see left/right, high/low etc
Andrew Watson
i think it refers to games where throws are used in RPS situations like many 2D games where on wake up you can throw, shimmy, jump, meaty, DP and so on. That would be a strike throw game from what i understand. Whereas games like Tekken where throws are not used in this way at all and can be consistently broken after they connect, that's not a strike throw game. That's just my first thoughts on it though, never looked it up or something
Justin Roberts
All those things are true except for kami forsaken WRPGs but I can still do a DP.
it means that in many circumstances the best mixup is making your opponent guess, are you going to hit them or throw them.
Eli Myers
In the context of bitching about it, it just means most mixups are between throwing or not rather than right/left or high/low. Why this pisses people off is a psychological thing I can't explain to you although it has a tendency to coincide with shitty reversals.
Robert Morales
shitty reversals is a good thing though. imagine how even more degenerate strive would be if DPs were throw invincible.
Nathan Baker
>quarter circle right make sure to only go as far as down right or you WILL end up missinputing a double qfc super after a crouch
Dylan Wood
Pretty close if you're calling something a strike/throw game then you're saying that the strike/throw mixup is the primary, or at least a major option in pressure and mix. It's not just that throws are good, but that they're very prominent to the at least partial exclusion of other options.
Most wacky ass anime games will include strike/throw mixups but aren't strike/throw games because they have so many other options.
Kevin Rogers
All you have to do is is remember like a couple of effective moves. Don't even need a combo
Joshua Morgan
That doesn't make them inherently good, just an apparent necessity of the game design.
Kevin Gray
Got you. So Fighterz is basically the only modern 2D fighter that isn't strike/throw right?
Xavier Reed
I hate doing a crouching normal into dp because I always go too far on the stick and get a double qcf
Parker Williams
since the game's throw is reactable, yeah. fighterz is mostly high/low
Brody Evans
because fighterz throw is bad there's a few other games I can think of where strike/throw is less of a thing vs high/low/crossup but fighterz is probably the most mainstream one
Matthew Jackson
depends what you mean by modern but yeah, at least of the popular ones. Xrd and BBCF aren't exactly old and they're definitely not strike/throw, but they're not new either and MBTL mostly isn't but Shield kind of fucks with things. Games with assists are almost always pretty crazy with the mixups so even if DBFZ throw was better it wouldn't really be a strike/throw focused game.
Sebastian Rodriguez
I'm bad at fighting games but I like them though. I can't play charge characters to save my life though. I'm not gonna lie, I dropped Kanji in Ultimax because they gave him a charge input on top of removing some of his fatals.
Easton Barnes

Jaxson Rivera
CC or TL?
Luis Cox
Thems Fightin Herds throws add a lot of scaling and a couple characters don't get combos off them at all, using them for a hard knockdown instead, when you're already on the defensive getting thrown is a lot less worse than eating a full combo since it's a 3 touch game
Why are so many bait posts nowadays going "just admit to thing you didn't do/isn't true"?
Dylan Barnes
inflammatory bait inspires indignation and makes people more likely to reply
Nolan Garcia
>using them for a hard knockdown instead, when you're already on the defensive getting thrown is a lot less worse than eating a full combo since it's a 3 touch game That sounds exactly like SFV to me, but that's probably because I haven't seen the pony reject game in action yet so I'm probably missing something.
Parker Adams
playing nero kills your braincells
that's true for any fightan. strike is inherently more rewarding than throw
Asher Nguyen
SFV throws can be quickrised and back-rised, unless its a command throw. I don't think any character in gets any kind of real oki after a throw. pony reject game treats them more like throws in SF4 where you're stuck on the ground for x number of frames no matter what
William Parker
>I don't think any character in in SF5*, fuck
Levi Jenkins
Does CVS2 have more strict inputs? I can DP without issue in any KOF but in that game it doesn't register when I want it to all the time.
Juan Martinez
Why do people feel that those inputs are necessary? And why do they hate smash?
Hunter Price
I have like 500 hours on fighting games and I still mash dp instead of carefully timing it
Jonathan Turner
SFV throws just put you back in the meaty/frametrap/tick throw cycle, TFH throws either give full(but scaled) combos or scary setups. Oli is a pretty extreme example since her throw is almost entirely for resource generation/denial so it scales by like 90% Throws are technically reactable, 6f startup and 17f tech window and you can OS it with pushblock because it's the same input, but it's not something you're going to do consistently while also dealing with all the other bullshit and pushblock/throw OS is risky as heck. The main difference is that when you make someone block in SFV your primary options are frametrap, tick throw, or wait/retreat. Most blockstring situations are centred around the strike/throw combination and it's so prevalent that "just take the throw" became a meme. In TFH yeah the lizard can grab you and get a combo that does 25% into more oki, but she could also do 10 other scary things so the game isn't really "about" strike throw.
why can't motion inputs be removed by simple giving moves more startup, while making them faster when used as a reversal? and I play fighting games
Austin Nelson
It really depends on the games you play the most it seems. One of my most played fightans is SFIV which encourages you to mash that shit, but then I go into a game that outs you for being a mashing monkey like KOF XIII and get btfo.
Jeremiah Fisher
You seem upset about things that don't actually affect you or your life.
