Any tips on how to not suck online?

[Mr. Boris]

I'm aware of the double jump technique to avoid the chakra dash but I can't seem to time it properly and I always end up using an Ultimate Jutsu instead of the regular one for some reason.

Any other tips

Are you using keyboard or controller? Using a keyboard can be easier for 2D Fighters, but games of this nature are best played with a controller. Trust me, I tried even playing this with an arcade stick. It's really hard.

When doing the double jump technique, I always jump right when I see a chakra dash and jump for the second time when they release it (or right before if it looks like they're doing a full charge because those don't go in the air).

In terms of jutsu vs UJ, it could be multiple things. It could be your controller buttons being too sensitive, the buttons pressing twice because it's dirty and needs to be cleaned, or you could be mashing buttons too much. If you see yourself double pressing in a bad situation, a temporary workaround is to back dash (While inputting a chakra dash input, hold the left analog stick in the opposite direction your character is facing.) to remove the UJ property without being forced to block and possibly have your guard broken. Another workaround can be doing a leader switch if you're in a team battle, but I won't give away the exact strategy on how you should do the leader switch and let you figure out good ways to leader switch when you're not doing an attack.

Hope I helped :)

I honestly don't know what to say except play more. It's not that hard to master but you just need more experience.

He was better in his Storm 2 and Generations days. Now he's just ass when you see how much better other people are.

just please dont resort to cheap tactics to win like 99% of players try to use balanced characters while trying to get better

[Mr. Boris]

I use the controller by the way

are AfroSenju's vidoes a good way to follow by the way?

[Mr. Boris]

What cheap tactics do you mean?

Cheap Tactics will only make you suck worse actually. Be unpredictable. Do things that you don't normally do and broaden your horizons in the game so people can't get a read on you. Reads are half the battle here. The other half is combat options. Get accustomed to things like stagger time, air time, and other situations that would leave the opponent in a vulnerable state (Substitutions get complicated so I'll discuss that near the bottom) and see what combat options you have (Attack, Jutsu, Grab, Shuriken, etc.) for that specific situation and the positions both players are at. It's always good to know how to use a broad set of characters in this type of game a well that all share some common strengths. Try making a team up of 2 characters you like and 1 character you're decent at for starters. For me, I like to have 2 mid range and 1 close range as my team, but that's also a complex thing you'll learn later.

In terms of substitutions, they're technically not vulnerable during that sequence since logic would say they'd substitute out of the range of whatever attack they were in and blocked or did something like that, but most people online won't sub out of the way or block out of sub, so you can capitalize on this easily. Sometimes if you do a jutsu, they sub back into it which is hilarious. When you substitute, you can press a direction on the left stick to change the direction in which you're substituting, so use that to your advantage to evade. If they're comboing (or skilled enough to rush you in any situation, which may happen), you should always hit RT right after LT and hold it. This way you're blocking right after subbing.

You can follow them, but they're usually for entertainment and they aren't meant for competitive analysis.
In this example video I've posted, look at how Usuratonkachi is playing and analyse what he's doing. What I do in the video is what we consider "B-Mashing", so follow how this other person plays for how to handle those guys.

Another good set of videos to follow are the Ninshu Tutorials made by Khronos:

If they go a bit fast for you, YouTube has a 0.5 and 0.25 option. Wish you luck :)

I'd say Afro ranks top in terms of gameplay ability among the YouTubers. Yeah, watching his videos is a good way to get better at the game :)
