I agree, there is no value in having these phonies being interviewed, and if they are, they need to be challenged on every false statement they make. CNN anchors are often treating these people as simply having a different opinion, but it's not that...they're just blatantly lying.

I'm especially disappointed how they keep getting Nier wrong in every patch.

Well I do think that too, but there is only so much your brain can take in when it comes to matchup knowledge and optimal combo routes before it gets completely overloaded. That is my problem right now.

Yes. I notice a lot of people are very tribalist regarding what fighting games they play. I enjoy most of them and welcome them being very different from one another. It's just really hard to balance so many of them without sacrificing your skill level.

I think it could be very valuable if you can get coaching from a legendary player though...I'm talking someone like GO1, Fenritti, Tokido, Xiaohai. They would need to be that strong for me to consider paying them.

For someone to charge for paid coaching, at a minimum, they should play matches with you, then go through your vod second by second, to pinpoint all the problems, and then answer all of your questions. But again, there are strong players that will do this for free.

Now it's true that sometimes you can watch a high level match and not know why some players are doing what they are doing. The problem is that I almost never see people ask questions about why top player did what they did at some timestamp of a match. I wish people asked more questions.

I'm also against paid fighting game coaching. Many fighting game discords have people that will vod review for you. I also notice that for many people asking questions in the discords, when you ask them if they've watched high level play of their character, they say they haven't.

I thought Strive's idea of doing a 3on3 team mode was pretty interesting for that.

But often a different perspective on your character or the way you should be fighting other characters, can get you out of plateaus.
comment in response to
post
"git gud" responses are never helpful, that's not really what I was trying to convey. But from my long experience, a lot of people that talk about plateaus try to figure things out for themselves and don't use outside resources, particularly high level play, to improve their own. So I mentioned it.

The way I see it, reaching a plateau usually means there is more to learn. At that point, it's less about playing and more about studying(high level play and your own replays). Finding out how to get out of a plateau is interesting, I definitely don't think it ends at the plateau.

Forgot to mention that this is also a Tekken World Tour event, so that is also stacked.

After the patch, she became top tier because the ones at the top got nerfed. Also more people were starting to realize she was better than they initially thought. But in this new patch that's coming out tomorrow, they decided to nerf her in many unnecessary ways. Likely she will become low tier.

It looks like there was so much backlash on this that Sp00ky had to disable to comments in the top 8 Strive video on youtube.

Not because she is trans, but just as you say there are people that use this an an excuse to attack trans people, there are also trans people that use the defense of "transphobia" to escape accountability and criticism. I notice it a lot within the anime fgc.

Meant to say that most of the interviews were after the election
comment in response to

The fact that the book contains things you don't want to hear doesn't make it fake. And the book is a culmination of 200 interviews made after the election. These attacks on Jake Tapper are childish and paint a bad picture of the left.
comment in response to
post
Tapper isn't ignoring Trump's mental decline, he's been very critical of Trump in the past. And how can you say he's Maga? He's been criticizing the nonsense of Maga for years...
Anyway the book isn't about attacking Biden, it's about calling out the inner circle.

Most of the 200 interviews occurred after the 2024 election. It was a book to investigate what happened. A lot of the people interviewed did not feel free to talk openly before the election. Jake Tapper explains this and more in this interview here:

You're done with Jake Tapper because he revealed important information about what was going on behind the scenes with Biden?

This is false. Why is it always the ones with the words "Truth" in their name, be it a username or a website, is usually telling lies?
This is what the order actually says:

What you probably need is inspiration. Maybe do less playing for a bit and more watching the best players of whatever characters you use (or even other characters if you are considering switching).

I suppose I agree. It's already been established that the democratic party is generally the "moral highground" party and the republican party is where the liars, crooks and conmen gravitate towards. And when you look at it like that, democrats get more scrutinized when they do something wrong.
comment in response to
post
And I also think just because you affiliate with one party doesn't mean you can't criticize them. You should criticize them, because that's how you make them aware that there is a problem that needs to be fixed or improved. Problem with Maga is they almost never criticize their party.
comment in response to
post
Die-hard Maga? That's ridiculous. Come on now. It is their job to criticize both sides if there is something to criticize. The fact that he is criticizing the left for something doesn't make him rightwing. He stated before "I don't belong to any political party"

Stop trying to make a villain out of someone that isn't one. Tapper wrote a book on an important topic that he felt people needed to know about. Why would you close your eyes and ears to information like that? Even if it's not what you want to hear, it was supposedly the facts. I'm a Biden fan too.
