If you can't perfect the cpu every round in arcade mode then you can't beat lunatic.

>>6811135
You can beat cpu on lunatic pretty easily just by spamming, it isn't a problem.

And even if you play seriously, just dial A, they never block the last hit.

>>6810883
I know I play like shit, sorry.
For starters I guess I should read up un the patchlog I have missed, then I should re-learn more or less everything about the entire game, get used to the mechanics again, and learn not to be a wuss who panicks whenever I am not familiar with what might be going on.

I still had fun though, I hope you had too, even though it was increadibly one sided.
It seriously almost amazes me how much worse one can get by staying away from a game. It might have been one sided even so, but in the past I might at least have been able to put up a fight, this was pretty much a cake-walk. But as you didn't leave I figure you found some enjoyment in it anyway.

>>6811200
No need to apologize. I enjoy playing against opponents of pretty much all skill levels, and as long as my opponents don't mind me using gimmicks like that little bit of weather play at the end there, it's all good.

Just remember that you're pretty much a sitting duck there at the top of the screen. Although I did get hit by those bombs pretty often.

Anyone NA want to play?

GGs. Don't forget to state you location next time. Lag was pretty bad.

>>6813090
You could start with the basics ie not mash on wakeup, learn how to block, stop to run away and don't spam from your own corner. Even though this is a projectile-based game, I can just graze anything you throw at me if you are on the other side on the screen.

>>6813126
Makes sense. What do you mean by mash on wakeup?

>>6813147
Stop pressing buttons when you're down on the ground and getting up.
No matter what you do, if I time my attack right, it beats everything you try to do. So block. It's kind of a respect move towards the other player. You can mash buttons all you want but it's incredibly boring to play time-the-meaty against a player who does never block and runs away all day.

Anyone else hosting?

>>6812713
>Any reason why you didn't try to block right during the first matches?
Yeah, in fact I always want to block and jump back to escape your moves, but doing so cancels my guard, so it looks like I'm not doing anything. A bad habit I have.

I have this terrible habit where I'll be in the middle guarding with, say, Alice or something, and then I'll start my backdash and get comboed for a few thousand.

GGs aki, a bit shorter session this time since it's getting pretty late.

I'll need to experiment more with Cirno's alt skills, especially that 22 proximity bomb. It seems that even if I manage to pin you in the corner, you can just wait and block anything I throw at you without having to worry about guard crush.

Those timestop spellcards you use are pretty interesting to fight against, although you did find an easy way to punish my alt.214 Ice Kick.

Also, GGs for our previous session as well, since the thread died while we played.

>>6819170
GGs, timestop and timeslow really are interesting! They are difficult to utilize well, and not the most rewarding I guess, but hopefully I'll get better at using them.

Just installed this game, so bump for beginner tips, if any.

>>6821374
Play against the CPU to learn the basic mechanics of the game only. Move to netplay when you can reliably beat the CPU on lunatic, since the CPU plays nothing like a human and you'll only learn bad habits if you keep playing against it exclusively. Most of the advice I'm giving here won't apply against the CPU. It's most likely you'll get beaten a lot at first during netplay, but that applies to pretty much any game.

To make learning easier, you might want to pick only a few characters to practise. You can't expect to win if you don't know what moves your character has and learning all 20 is going to take some time. None of the characters are too low tier, at least on /jp/ level of play, so pick the ones you find interesting or fun.

While all of the characters have a basic combo that works by pressing the melee button repeatedly, some simply can't rely on that alone. Look at the wiki linked in the OP post for some combo examples. Cirno, for example, does only 1309 damage with her basic Dial-A, yet with her alternative ice sword skill she has a 2900 damage corner combo.

One of the most common mistakes new players do is trying to attack after they've been knocked down and are getting up again. If your opponent times his attack right, you WILL get hit again. The proper action is usually to block on wakeup.

>>6822158 cont.

Avoid flying to the top of the screen too much. It might seem safe, but a skilled player will be able to shoot you down, and you'll quickly deplete all of your spirit by flying.

While this game is heavy on projectiles, you can just run through them so relying on them too much will leave you vulnerable and low on spirit. You'll have to find a balance between melee and projectile usage.

Also, spectating other people is a good idea as well, you might learn some interesting tricks and combos. The game will ask whether you only want to spectate when joining a server. Enable replay autosaving from the config menu as well so you can watch them later for reference.

Finally, remember not to take this game too seriously. There's always a luck factor because your cards are drawn in random order. The weather system will try its best to troll you too.

>Avoid flying to the top of the screen too much.
Ceiling hugging is absolutely zzzzzz to play against and not that great a tactic anyways (unless you are Suwako or something) but flying itself is fine. Take Yuyuko for example; 963214789632D j.2A is S level tactics.

>Finally, remember not to take this game too seriously. There's always a luck factor because your cards are drawn in random order.
There is definitely some luck involved but its not as bad as this guy makes it out to be. If you are absolutely reliant on winning with certain cards/skills in your deck, I suggest you get better at the game.

>The weather system will try its best to troll you too.
All I've got to say about this is that you should be learning to manipulate the weather instead of crying about it.

I never implied otherwise, I only meant ceiling hugging. Maybe I could've worded it a bit better though.

As for the other points, I only wanted to make known that there are some aspects in the game which are random and will thus cause some unexpected situations, which you'll just have to deal with if you plan to enjoy the game.

Weather in soku is hardly unpredictable.

For example, in >>6824437, that is entirely the player's fault.

>>6824491
fuck. how did you get off my filter

>>6824491
Now that I did a quick research, I see what you mean (he knocked the Aya down when River Mist was at 99, basically, so it got changed to Typhoon and LOLNOPE).
But still... holy shit, there are way too many things you need to pay attention to if you want to manipulate weather to a certain degree, or if you don't want to get fucked over by things like that.

>>6824491
True, that was technically a mistake on his part, although it was something most people wouldn't expect to happen. However, a random factor still remains when a weather ends and the counter is set at a new, random weather. If one of the players holds a weather card, he can immediately force this new weather as well. Also, there's Aurora which really does give an unpredictable, random effect.

>>6824507
No need to make things personal here.

>>6824625
That only happens when weathers end, and after that it cycles predictably, so I think we are all capable of managing that element of the game. People forcing weather on you like that is an advantage they deserve for actually bothering to run the Hisou cards, which I wish I saw more of. I would say if anyone was really worried about that, they should be running Hisou cards to counteract disadvantageous weather. Aurora is similar to me, an initial random moment followed by predictability; the weathers that will surprise you worst in Aurora are actually very easy to identify. For example, Typhoon Aurora can be a horrible surprise in the wrong situation, but it's not like either player will know the mystery weather before the other does.

>>6824665
Yes, I think we can both agree that weather is usually very manageable. However, I don't doubt you've had your fair share of anticlimactic endings thanks to some ridiculous weather kicking in at the end of a very close match. Something like blocking in corner when both players are very low on health and suddenly Aurora with typhoon effect kicking in, or a situation where someone runs into a melee attack and would've lost if not for a sudden spring haze making him graze it instead and effectively turning the tables. These are very frustrating moments, hence me suggesting not to take this game too seriously.

Also, thanks to the random nature of card drawing, even if both players are running weather cards you may not always have one at hand when you most need it.

>>6824747
I suppose you can choose not to believe me, but I have never feel like I have lost because of a sudden weather change, considering how closely I monitor it. I lose matches because I am bad, not because of sudden weather. I also never understood the complaints about the decks. In a 20 card deck, with 4 of a card, you have a reasonable chance of drawing a weather card. This is just a guess, but I would say in around 75% of my games, if I am running 4 Hisou cards, I actually do get one in one of my first 5 draws. Considering that the kind of actual game changing weather activation usually happens later in the rounds, I still feel prepared even when I don't. Dislike of the weather and associated factors is most likely relative to the number of times you've been trapped in a disadvantageous situation due to weather, so I guess that's a personal thing. I feel like in the examples you mentioned, recognizing the upcoming weather and timing your actions better would avoid those kind of situations. I've always done as much as possible to avoid that, so maybe I'm the only one that likes it.

>>6824854
>I lose matches because I am bad
so the truth finally comes out

>>6824747
>Also, thanks to the random nature of card drawing, even if both players are running weather cards you may not always have one at hand when you most need it.

This is seriously the only thing I have against soku's weather system. If you could design a specific card drawing order, it would eliminate SO many problems with its random factor

But alas

>>6824854
Well, I do have hard time believing that, seeing as I too run weather cards in most of my decks, but like you said, it's probably a personal thing. Most of the times I find the weather an amusing spice, or a minor hindrance at most. There's nothing like the feeling of calling forth a Typhoon in the last round when you're clearly in the lead. But there are moments when it simply catches me off-guard, like when I'm trying to look for a gap in the opponent's pressure and keeping an eye on my spirit and then suddenly a typhoon kicks in. On the other hand, I've won numerous times when my opponent didn't take the weather into consideration.

Anyway, what I said at >>6822163 wasn't even meant to reflect my personal feelings but rather provide a tip for a beginner, since the weather system is a very unique feature that'll be very confusing for a new player at first.

>>6824968
Yeah, I suppose you're right, that can be good advice for new players.

Also, is hosting time over?

If they only took out river mist. I can't fathom even a smallest bit of sense in that weather. It just completely destroys the game for no fucking reason, and it stays there forever without a weather card.

Anyway, hosting 88.114.149.135:10800 Eu FI High tier.

>>6828671
Typhoon and River Mist need to go. If damage was better balanced, I'd be fine with Typhoon, but characters like Aya and Reimu are completely fucked over by Typhoon with no recourse. No blocking means they eat full damage on what should normally be risky moves you'd never use, and they can't inflict almost any damage to be able to punish for it. All they can do is run until the weather's over or blow cards on it. Beyond that, there are certain cards that are just too powerful in Typhoon. Even just making it only one hit of super armor would be so much better. River Mist is just retarded all around and slows the game to a crawl whenever it's in effect.

>>6829004
GGs Renee. Don't know why but that's the most pissed I've ever been while playing this game, and I've played Duckator. I felt like everything Marisa has is inferior to Meiling for some reason. I'm either going to have to step it up and figure out what I'm doing wrong or start countering with Tenshi or something like that. Also, I rather enjoyed those last few games against your Komachi, mainly because they were just trials of patience and seeing who'd make the miscalculation first.

>>6829742
Miscalculations my ass. My hands were shaking of impatience. I wanted to ring your neck soooo bad. At least you found a way to deal with my Komachi though, for some reason she seem to give people wayyy more trouble than my China.

I don't know about the Marisa being inferior to Meiling bit, but I do know you were a bit easier in the last matches because you were playing my China like she was Komachi.

Like when you'd jump back and hit with my j2a jump in, also for some reason I knew how to actually complete combos, kinda~

>>6829733
I'm sorry, but is this our first time playing each other? I always play with a turtly (wha? Is that even a word) style since day 1, which always gets me blown up in this game since Soku rewards aggression so much. It's something that 6 months of playing has still not taken away. Also I'll admit that I was rusty too and I think you helped me get some of it off. Like usual I look forward to our next matches

>>6829760
I feel it's the opposite, that the game favours defensive play way too much. Wrong blocking pushes the attacker away more than blocking it correctly, and then border escapes breaks a lot of strings. Fighting counterpunchers if you don't have airtight offense is an exercise in frustration.

>>6829850
Good games, aki.

I wonder why it never crossed my mind before today that Meiling's 5card Roc Killing Fist connects from her leveled up default 22 making it very easy to use in combos besides its obvious defensive use.

I added that 5card melee counter to my Youmu deck mainly to act as a scare, but I'll need to learn to time it better when I actually use it.

>>6830838
Also, gotta love that mountain vapor.

>>6830838
GGs idler. It seems like quite a few of our rounds turn into sudden death mode, with both of us just one or two hits away from defeat. It feels pretty good to win a round with my hp bar fully depleted!

>>6831023
Those are usually the most exciting matches. There's nothing quite like the satisfaction from beating the opponent by timing an attack just a fraction of a second before him.

Our matches are often pretty even as of late, at least when fighting with our mains.

GGs. It seems to me you're playing against me like you would against the CPU. A human opponent will put pressure on you when you're getting up from the ground, so you can't usually do anything but block. Also, even if you play characters like Patchouli or Utsuho, you can't win with projectiles alone.

Also, it seems you don't have SWR installed and are thus missing over half of the characters. I suggest you install SWR as well if you don't want most people quitting already at the character select screen.

>>6835160
Yeah, I am kinda bad at those things, sorry for The Idler that I left the game, had to use the bathroom as I've been eating quite alot of rubbish food today
but, I still do not really get how to block/shield, as I am hysterically mashing my buttons(old habit from my World of Warcraft playing), I often got "A" pressed in, and many times the down arrow and left arrow, which I guess is one of the keys needed to block?

Really recommend you to play some computer or practice mode before moving to netplay. Fighting games are usually cruel to worse players, so you shouldn't feel bad for losing at start.

Start by experimenting with few chars you like, and then play against computer and practice mode with them. You should also take a look at the wiki http://hisouten.koumakan.jp/ and try to understand the mechanics of the game.

GGs Recupel. Those Youmu mirrors were amusing, I lost track a couple of times on which Myon was mine.

I think it's more fun when we both play our mains, but maybe that's just me. I'll still always choose random when my opponent does.

>Corner frozen frog diamond dust pressure
One of the best uses for frozen frog besides weather control, but since I carry it in my joke decks only I don't get to use it too often.

>>6835827
Well, it's true that main games are interesting and an excellent way to work on mine.

But I really don't have a character I could call my main (except Alice, but I do think she's not my best char) so i spend my time randoming because I can't decide myself.
So I really don't mind people playing their mains against my random, it's almost my main.

But of course it wouldn't be pleasant to play your main against my worst characters.

I'll try to random less though.

>>6835882
No need to force yourself, but it's a lot easier to learn just a couple of characters well than the whole cast. I still have characters I struggle a lot with and when playing random there's not all that much time to practise and analyze the game so I don't really improve with them. Which reminds me, I'll need to practise Komachi, it's embarrassing how bad I'm with her.

GGs aki, thanks for the game.
I always fail at inputting a special after a dash attack.
I'm almost never able to see an opportunity to do a dash attack anyway.
Just a random thought, sorry.

>>6836949
GGs recupel, you should be more careful of air unblockable attacks, jumping on wakeup when I'm right next to you is usually not a very good idea.

Also, I started practicing Sakuya after our mirror matches some days (or weeks?) ago, and I think I've gotten somewhat decent with her now. She's quite fun to play!

Slightly tipsy from taking someone out for their birthday on a weeknight Tier

Quick question.


My college blocks a lot of shit. Right now I'm trying to get some of the MMORPG I play unblocked. I emailed the system administrator and he's cool. Says I just need to give him the IP Range and ports and shit for anything.


But for Soku.... doesn't that mean I'd have to give him the IP of EVERY individual I'd want to fight?

>>6837754
No, that is not how it works. Port forwarding works by telling the router that when outside access comes on a specific port, it should be redirected to a certain computer and port. Well, generally.

>>6837765
I forgot to mention that it is school policy that every port being opened be accompanied by an IP or an IP Range.


If I was at home I'd just open 10800 and be done, but...

>>6837052
Yeah, I saw this, I couldn't do anything against your Sakuya. She's indeed decent.

>>6837379

You won't learn much playing against the computer. It will not put pressure on you like a human opponent, and you can actually beat it with just spamming bullets. You'll most likely just gain bad habits from playing against CPU.

Anyway, I've been playing this game with /jp/ since launch and a bit of SWR before that, so it's only natural I have more experience. You'll get better over time.

I'll host if someone with a good connection to the east coast is around~

You had me at the beginning there, but that was only because I just came from outside and my hands were freezing! You made me have to take my coat off.

I don't know how long you've been playing but I got the feeling you haven't been playing for long. You seem to be good at fighting games in general, seeing as you had limited tactics but they were well thought out and executed. You'll pass a reckless scrub like me in no time, but your tactics are mainly centered around very unsafe moves.

Still, I had fun, those were some really entertaining matches~

What the fuck was up with the lag at the end there? It was like playing in strobe-o-vision. Glad I'm finally starting to take random ones from you and forcing you to 3 most of the time though. I think I finally found the one room of the house where the connection between us isn't godawful. Or it's just luck.

I still think my router might be the biggest source of our connection problem. I should be getting a new one soon so hopefully it'll help.

I think my Meiling has considerably improved playing against you. Winning your Remi with her was the most satisfying moment I've had in months with this game, although I didn't really expect to land that 5card at the end.

Also, I'll have to play more with Youmu when facing you, although you play her better than me I think.

Spend 5-30 minutes a day practicing/trying out "new" combos, watch videos of others, look at the wiki linked in the OP (character wise, Youmu, Iku, Utsuho, and Marisa are the only "super-detailed" character pages, so take advantage of that wealth of info for them), and try to analyze your play to see what was done right, wrong, and what to improve on, so your mindset is slightly better the next time you play. If you were looking for Meiling tips then I'm sorry but I can't help. Don't play her, and I already have trouble fighting against her.

GGs Taloth.
Just a few advices :
Try not to mash D button, you did some unintentional (I think) Border Escapes and it only puts you in an unfavorable state (lack of spirit)

Also, when your opponent has a huge life advantage, don't rush on him during a Typhoon, I stopped attacking on purpose.

On a side note, avoid as much as possible Sakuya's 4cards knives circle thing spellcard since the opponent can just graze it. (I don't know a way to use it correctly though, I prefer her other 4cards.)
Use the smallest circle after a knockdown, it will put your opponent in a hard situation on wake up.

That's all I can say, I'm not a good player myself.

She forces her opponents almost always to defend, so playing against her is quite different from most other characters.
