I feel like NRS is gonna charge like $50 for an expansion while the base game is still buggy and unfinished, and instead of saying anything, I'll just RT this.
Guys I can't explain how incredible @MechaBREAK feels. I literally haven't been all in on a game just from movement alone since the first time I tried GunEvo.
Look at this, just look at this.
Also of course all of us in the non-Smash FGC should be HYPER AWARE right now, that if the Panda CEO is willing to get IP rights holders involved to hurt competition there, he is absolutely willing to do it for every other game. ALL of the FGC should be paying attention to this.
You could buy the new capcom collection for the low price of 59.99, or you could play fightcade for the low price of being exposed to extreme amounts of racism.
HBox went to the venue for a few hours, didn't wear a mask, played on stream, then said "I'm leaving for safety" LOL
And people are legit saying "thank you for doing the right thing"
Like are you KIDDING me bro!?
The new @IdolShowdown character has a really cool feature, she's a charge character, and either her halo and/or book glow to show whether you have down and/or up charge.
Should be a really useful tool to help people who aren't used to charge characters.
Skullgirls absolutely doesn't deserve to be review bombed by creeps who're mad that they desexualized a minor and removed nazi imagery.
It's on sale right now, so I'll make a deal:
I'll buy the first 15 people who comment here the game, if you try it and leave an honest review.
This is so goated.
People in the comments are complaining about how low the damage is, but they don't realize that this is intentionally the most BM combo possible.
Idk why yall are dogpiling on this, it's a SUPER common opinion with how realistic the gore has gotten in MK.
I have a LOT of FGC friends who've mentioned they're interested in the game but don't want to see such realistic violence.
It isn't a bad take or an insult to the game.
I have negative interest in the series, so I don’t care if they change it; but I hate the forced violence/gore in Mortal Kombat.
That’s it, that’s the tweet.
I just found a BIG input bug in Mortal Kombat 1.
If you hit any button twice, then do a special input, regardless of what button you press after, it uses the one that you hit twice.
So if you do 44 Down Forward 1, you get the Down Forward 4 special. PLEASE fix this ASAP.
NO WAY dude, this person straight up tried to lie to me because they didn't think I played MK11.
This is one of the best "story in pictures" moments I've ever had on here LOL
I think this is probably not a hot take, but SF6 has gotta be far and away the greatest total package of a Fighting Game of all time.
It's just so wild that in 15 years of competing, a game finally just got basically everything right. Actually amazing.
I know the FGC is starting to get a lot of career commentators, and this is no shade at all to them, but I wish we had more people on the mic again who deeply love their game and are worse at talking, rather than people who've only played a game a bit but are good at talking.

I've said it before but I truly don't get bigotry in the FGC.
How can you go to dozens or hundreds of tournaments where you literally sit down next to someone and both put everything on the line in the intimate exchange that is a FG, and not easily see that we're all the same.
I'm officially tired of every fighting game trying to simplify. I can only speak for myself, but I didn't start playing FGs because I picked one up and said "this game is easy enough for me to play!" I saw good players doing stuff I didn't think I could EVER do, but I wanted to.
Skullgirls Mobile has that thing where you can watch an ad to get a reward (common in Mobile Games) but they went ham with the lines Peacock says after.
I hope people stop seeing this article and saying "wow nintendo", that's definitely not the main takeaway at all.
If you read it, it becomes VERY clear that the Nintendo reps were supportive until the Panda CEO forced their hand. Seriously disgusting behavior.
I can typically tell when my opponent is a male/female based on the patterns if response...men typically act based on observation/experience/data...women opponents often play more intuitively/reactionary/fluid assumption...
This is ZERO disrespect to CEO or it's staff, but watching the streams all weekend has proven to me 100% the FGC isn't responsible enough for offline events to safely come back yet.
Played more @MechaBREAK tonight, game is SO GOOD.
Have you ever wanted to stalemate another melee mech by making the exact same reads while flying over a giant arena with missiles flying all around you?
This is THAT game.
Okay THIS is easily the most useful and easy Safe Jump Rashid has so far. You can get this off of like every corner combo and it's auto timed.
MP>HK xx Charged Whirlwind Shot
6MP(1) xx L Arabian Cyclone > 6KK
Hold Up

Everyone just please stop being to be Yipes in general.
Yipes is the absolute goat, people don't realize how difficult it is to use his style correctly, and Yipes impersonators have been the most painful thing to listen to for like an entire decade.
From the weird matches of master bug finder @Heyunclejesse and I comes a BIG game breaking bug.
If Shujinko uses DF Kameo at ANY point that Shao's Axe is on the ground, he loses it PERMANENTLY.
Can't get it back ANY way, not even between rounds. Can't use ANY specials. PC & PS5
Not only does Rashid have a throw loop, but he can meaty overhead with 6HP to let him combo into jab. You don't even need to move, that 6HP goes FAR.
#SF6_Rashid
LOOK HOW FAST Melty Blood Type Lumina loads from the moment you open the game until you're controlling a character in training mode! Truly beautiful, this is what I want in every fighting game.
(On PC of course, since you can see my dumb Windows watermark.)
If we want to be honest here, the real reason why offline events are in danger is the current economic situation.
The cost for renting any space right now is absurd, it goes hand in hand with how high rent costs are. It's been a worse and worse issue far before the rollback fad.
I had the absolute pleasure of being the Technical Director on the Jerma Christmas Special!
This might be the coolest show I've ever worked on, and Jerma is genuinely one of the nicest, coolest, most professional people I've ever met. What a seriously dope dude.
Rashid can set up a super sweet looking safe jump from:
MP > HK xx H Eagle Spike
L Arabian Cyclone > 4K Followup
You have to manually delay the jump normal just sliiiightly, but that means you can whiff it early and go for lows/throw. #SF6_Rashid
Windclad Medium Condor Spire into Light Condor Wind is +2, letting you loop it or get a perfect Counter Hit command grab against 4F jabs.
PERFECT frame kill, I've won so many matches off of this alone.
#SF6_Lily
Rashid gets a midscreen safe jump from MP>HK, regardless of tech roll. Gotta manually delay the jump just slightly.
MP>HK xx H Arabian Cyclone
4K Followup > jHK
Jump Forward jMK

I'm sorry Forest, but you gotta understand that Trump wants lots of people that I care about (and so many that I don't know) to lose their basic human rights, or their lives, and he actively and openly works towards that end. Supporting him means you are supporting those goals.
Honestly playing wifi players like this makes me want to just focus on other fighting games instead of MK1. This is just not even the same game, and it locks you into a stupid 3/5 too...
Rashid's Arabian Cyclone is active FOREVER so it seems really easy to meaty after knockdowns.
Light meaties after L Eagle Spike for +6/+14
Medium meaties after H Spinning Mixer for +7/+15
VERY easy to loop in corner pressure, not safe to invincible stuff though. #SF6_Rashid
It's actually pretty easy to take for granted the fact that the inconceivably dominant FG player that exists ended up being SonicFox and not some random racist or something. Imagine how much worse large sections of the FGC would be if that role was filled by a real bad influence.
I bet someone in the Pokemon world saw a Magikarp, tried to recreate it with the first one, and once more was known about Magikarp they were like "man this looks unrealistic as hell"
In #PokemonLegendsArceus there is a room with a realistic fish pot holder, which is odd on its own, but becomes even weirder when you realize they also used Magikarp pot holders as well.
Is this a new pokemon tease? Or is it just world building like the dragon statues in Galar?
I'm sure this has been found already, but Sektor gives Shao a hitconfirmable 384 BnB from 22. Super dope way that it basically OTGs.
I feel like Shao/Sektor is super sauce.
I'm muting this since it reached a bad crowd, but it's very disheartening to me to see how many people just can't conceive of someone liking a game's gameplay but being turned off by hyper realistic violence.
LOTS of people saying that's the case for them in this thread too.

I didn't think about it until they said it on stream, but Skullgirls, a 12 year old side game, has over half the prize pot of the main EVO games (except SF6) because of the devs crowdfunding the tournament with Skullgirls Mobile packs.
That's dope.

Damn that's wild that the West Coast went from having SCR. NCR. NWM, Anime Ascension, WCW, EVO, and more to literally just EVO...
Kinda sucks to play fighting games on the West Coast and not be online focused LOL
Jab conversion I'm working with for Grappler. You can get a jab after the axe kick, but nothing combos from it... you can do raw EX Command Grab but idk if it's worth it.
#DNF_GRP
Oh wow, I knew Nu Resonance Blaze Lv 4 chip was crazy good, but I didn't realize how easy it was to get 100% chip, haha. Save meter for pushblock! #TAG_NU
I've gotten hundreds of hate messages from that SG post, ranging from transphobic, to defending pedophilia, to trying to get me fired.
A perfect example of the evil type of people trying to hurt the game right now.
Keep supporting Skullgirls, it's a great game with great devs.
It breaks my heart, but I gotta put fighting games behind me. I'm the main income for my family, and because of our current situation, I won't have money to even attend locals for the foreseeable future. I have to concentrate on making enough money for us to survive. That's life!
If you got a laugh out of this, genuinely give the game it's from, @IdolShowdown, a try. It's an awesome game with a lot of love and attention from the devs. It's also 100% free.
I had a chance to be on the Playstation EVO Lounge and talk about how helpful the Skullgirls scene is to new players.
It's really dope, and not something you see in almost any other game.
