Notice how nobody wants to rematch with you?
That's a sign that you're an unfun fighter and opponent. Is there anything more shameful than being an unfun opponent? Goku wouldn't even bother to fight you irl if he couldn't banter with you between your backshot combo spam...

Yeah, I'm one and done against people who are spamming the same attacks non-stop, only choose those meta characters...

I play the game to have fun, I'd rather not have to go all-out desperate every fight lmao.

I'd give you a 2 out of 3 set. Some people wouldn't if you're playing a weaker character...

Ive rematched 2 people so far. I wish I could have told both of them GG afterward. They earned it.

The dopamine hit from seeing your opponent using Master Roshi when you've picked Kid Goku and Islands map is better than anything these tryhards get from rear combo spamming Yamcha as Super Gogeta.

Fusion mains are so annoying.
Depends on the context, what gamemode?
If you are playing ranked then you really should not cry, its called RANKED for a reason.

Remember when Ranked gameplay modes were filled with people that used actual skills rather than just having a skill set consisting of "Spam Cheese move 1" and "Spam super" and their signature fight style of "I can only attack from the rear and I don't care if the fight is boring for everyone else because it consists of me doing the exact same combo and animations 8 times until you die"

Just because it's ranked doesn't mean you have to main and spam the cheesiest mechanics over and over and over. Honestly more than 50% of my fights basically just consist of people trying to do the same dragon dash to backshot combo / follow up over and over and over. Which means now I'm just side stepping left, over and over and over and over. Nobody even uses dragon dash normal attacks and come from the front.. they're all just desperate for the rear combo where they get a ton of cheap hits in and players can't do anything at all for a good few seconds until the follow ups start. I notice that 9/10 of these dragon dash combo spammers aren't capable of countering your counters.. so either you catch the second window to side step out of the way of the dragon dash, or you have to take the hit (the slightest lag at all makes it impossible to dodge at first range) and wait for them to do the follow up and counter.

Combine this with the fact that they're using some form of SSG4 or UI Goku and these matches just become boring af. All you're doing is countering the same single move, over and over and having to whittle down their huge health bars. It's a chore to fight these types of players and given that there's no real reward for playing ranked or ranking up, other than getting to face harder opponents, what's the point in playing in such an unfun manner? Surely it can't be fun just watching the exact same animation, 5-10 times per fight, every single fight..?

Now that I've realised how to counter it with the left sidestep/dodge, more than half of my games consist of ME having to do the exact same combo/variation of "dodge left, attack them". My new favourite thing to do is save a Super to hit them with on their final dragon dash but I'm sure that will get boring soon.

The best matches are when you fight someone who's maining a DP3 character and they absolutely demolish you with moves you've never seen before, where you're actually sitting there like "♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that was a cool fight" even though you didn't even manage to take away one of their hp bars. Meanwhile when you get an "Epic matchup" against high rank UI Goku, you expect some crazy moves and skill but nope, it's just dragon dash back shots simulator but with a spongier enemy.

It's actually insane how weak players are in fighting games shown by how many resort to being slaves to the meta or having to exploit the cheapest moves to get by, rather than working on developing their own signature style or skills. Mastering / maining the cheesiest mechanic until you're so good at it most fights are easy isn't a flex, it just makes nobody want to rematch or play with you again.

I'll still rematch a skillful Master Roshi that kicks my ass 3 times in a row when I'm playing as SS3 Goku but there's no way I'm interested in rematching someone who's matches consist of them just using or trying to use dragon dash rear combo for 90% of the time.

People who rematch in fighting games are weird, it's not normal.

You never had a fun match where you think it would be fun to go again? Or where it's very close and you can do best of 3? Or do you sweat so hard that nobody wants to rematch with you or when you lose you're so angry that you don't want to rematch them? Lol
Mr. White Oct 14, 2024 @ 7:58pm 
This is why I have not really touched the online modes since I've gotten the game. Can tell from different sites, and forums that everyone is just playing as a cheap loser somehow. Sad reality of verses these days.
Goku Mid is fun AF

I often don't get re matches. I've been playing with the Ginyu force for the most part. In order in how they lost in the anime lol. Usually I don't swap out either unless they have like an UI Goku or something. I just play til they die. I think people get irritated because I spend half the time countering and dodging. Then rush in with Recoom and do that fighting bomber thing. The final touch is when I body swap with Captain Ginyu. Very satisfying to just let Ginyu get beat up, then swap with their SS God Goku or equivalent character. Then go on the offensive and give them a taste of what they were trying to give me. Maybe thats why they don't rematch me.

But I sorta have to just block and counter most of the time with DP 2 and 3 characters. Jeice's sparking move with Burter is oddly powerful though for DP 3 now that I think about it.

Haha well said... one thing i've also thinking is that some new mechanics of this game are really annoying. Too much spamming of that square+cross attack that teleports and the parry it's just spammable as heck. It's kinda annoying to be honest, i'm feeling that the new things are a little annoying.
