Fighting Game Betting: Guess The Floor Level

[@Diaphone]

I think my favorite matches were at 18:42 and 21:53. What did you guys think of this style of content?

[@gadget4646]

More

[@Connard15]

Good idea

[@WindSage44]

Definitely a good farmable format

[@edivimo]

Match #8 was beautiful. If you pay attention, you can "hear" the whispers of the Nago players saying : "I'm going to murder you right here, right now!!!"

[@DwarlWarberry]

Fun idea! Not sure how long it could go on, but its different and interesting.

[@Ant_FGC]

I would love for this to be a series.

[@Diaphone]

🤔

[@Lauramussss]

i second this

[@The_Chuman]

I third this

[@socialcameleon6956]

Fourth, I'd watch this every time

[@TheJackOfFools]

Definitely, subbed because of this, even better if you throw up a poll for each with every floor.

[@oh-no-its-clara7574]

I'm in celestial and those Floor 1-5 players were throwing out DP and raw supers more consistently than I do 😭

[@yugijak]

This may be old but I appreciate it a lot. On the struggle to obtain get gud

[@Daniel-ut6lc]

When you spin the stick randomly dp and super are the most likely to come out

[@BIaziken2]

That Nago mirror was next level, 3 beyblade combos are the new meta.

[@noobtuber10]

Do a cmd grab after the third and nobody will see it coming

[@Ennbeard]

One thing that sadly muddies the water is that there's no way to tell if people are playing their mains. Like the GL vs Faust one early, it definitely seemed like the GL knew what to go for but didn't have the execution. Probably got to celestial with their main and then was just trying Goldlewis out for funsies. Still, this was an awesome and fun video and I would definitely watch again in the future!

[@ChaosImmortal]

True, I would of never said celestial tier, maybe cos my friend is a faust main and I'm too jaded with the mix

[@crowdsurfing101]

the editing on this one is crazy good

[@Diaphone]

Caste getting kinda OP

[@thenotoriousstretch8245]

This was fire. Yeah I want to see more of this. The Anji was a 6P god, May round start Gold burst is just next level mind games. Inspiring 🤣

[@ArkRiley]

That May also RC'd off her super to get the overhead. That match was wild!

[@TeQxktcg]

My hypothesis about the floor 1 players is that they kinda know what to do but consciously have to think about it. Since their mental stack is so overburdened I can imagine them losing to mashing thus dropping floors. The person that picked the replay probably just found two of these players match up?

[@BIG_G_512]

I think floor 1 players are mostly trolls, any level of comprehension will get you out of there

[@alexanderdenison2950]

This was excellent dude your editor picked some good clips. Would love to see this become a series.

[@TheJiggernaut]

What a maneuver at 11:25! That May had me rolling, I gotta steal some of her tech!

[@Trigun_Bebop]

Bro that Nago mirror and the Anji. I've been playing the game wrong.

[@Diaphone]

Same

[@joeyrhubarb2558]

This was a fun video! For educational content, it might be interesting to go over the common pitfalls of the floor ranges and little things can do to improve. Like Floors 4-6 typically don't have a structured gameplan and mostly are just swinging, whereas 7-8 there is some form of gameplan, but usually not a good one.

[@DeertickDaniel]

From the 4-6s I’ve fought they just all have an insane jump and air dash habit

[@HawooAwoo]

I once got eliminated from a friends group tournament to a floor 10 Potemkin who did almost nothing but 24/7 mega fist spam; it's wild out there

[@MarcoYu]

one bad thing in the floor system is that we do keep our floor when changing from our familiar character to a totally new character.

[@Skel_fgc]

I knew without a doubt that Nago mirror was fooor 7 and it’s for one simple reason. That’s how I played Nago when I was on floor 7.

[@pcgeek_1862]

I loved this, a ton of fun. You should make this a series

[@relltherealone]

The floor system is really good to protect lower skilled players. Once you reach floor 7 I feel the skill gap isn’t huge until celestial. I picked up Strive and was able to get into celestial in about 5-6 days. No other fighting game experience other than DBZ fighters Z and smash ultimate. One thing I noticed in that climb was two different players. Ones who lab combos and can execute them or ppl who spam a certain string that’s tricky to stop. Great video shows how close the skill gap is on the higher floors.

[@113Kyote]

This was super fun to watch. I've been wanting to see more creative content like this with strive. Awesome video Diaphone!

[@killareign124]

That was quite entertaining Diaphone. A series like this would be welcome. Keep it up and thanks for the content

[@ranenap]

This video was AMAZING, I love these types of videos. Would love to see more!

[@ferdinandboudreau983]

that nago mirror was the funniest shit I've ever seen

[@danielbruce4412]

I would like to see more of this. Also in case your chat didn’t already answer, yes you can challenge floors above your assigned floor barring Celestial. The game just gives you a warning that you may encounter strong players hungry for battle before you can proceed. I’ve gone above my assigned floor during times when my assigned floor is empty.

[@TheZenmaster585]

I think it would be cool to have definitive predictions by just having every floor as a prediction option.

[@Diaphone]

Yea... twitch can't do that.. but technically you could do a poll? I'll have to think about that, would be cool

[@tyrantell6233]

Seeing the point ratio before the outcome makes the video so much better well done to whoever thought of that you deserve a yummy apple pie

[@jpVari]

how did this make me want to start playing strive again smh. very cool idea diaphone, loved it!

[@bayonettatube]

love my cameo in the first 1 second of the video ✨

[@knotwrite]

bro ain't no way that first match was floor 1, they looked more competent than most of my floor 6 opponents

[@theyAreGhost]

These are dope! Love fun content of this nature

[@Bblunt720]

Hey dog just subbed you got a crazy calm voice and demeanor, makes sense you pilot a cranked up to 11 chaotic female considering the whole opposites attract law. Anyways I like the video and I'ma def suffer through I-no PTSD to watch you do your thing!

[@CJLebon-ch2qb]

Cool idea with the show concept. Triple beyblade was definitely some high end combo wizardry that almost ko'd me with awe and laughter! Mostly laughter....

[@lintecassidy206]

The triple beyblade killed me

[@tabkg5802]

11:19 this May player is giving me inspiration to be a better man, match 8 is tempting me to join the dark side while the Anji clip is just what Strive was meant to be

[@liammclaughlin8684]

This is such a great idea, dope video

[@edivimo]

(13:45) I think you should pick not a 1 floor guess, but a 2 floor range guess to avoid making the guessing game harder. Because I'm one that easily goes to floor 7 to 8 and and viceversa several times in a week.

[@ArkRiley]

Yeah, I think most players tend to float somewhere in a range of three floors. Like I'm on 8-10 myself. And Dia was one floor off on guessing most of these

[@diorluvsyou]

nah that leo match was how i used to play i thought it was me

[@Minimoto714]

This video was fantastic; would love for this to become a series.

[@Noname-sm6md]

That Nago match had me crying

[@coalminecanary1277]

Thoroughly enjoyed this - guess the rank is amazing

[@MrChessboxing]

This reminds me of Guess the Elo over on Gotham Chess's channel. Same idea. It's a fun format and I think you should keep doing it.

[@Diaphone]

This actually what I based it off of lol. I love that series

[@jonathanloiseau7981]

I think 1 round may be better than 1 match because when it comes to 3 rounds it feels "unnecessary long". This being said it was a lot of fun, I hope you'll do more of this kind of content! Thx for the show !

[@ArkRiley]

I feel like it's impossible to get a feel for both players' skill levels off just one round.

[@jonathanloiseau7981]

@@ArkRiley Yes I agree it's harder. But the game is about fun IMO failling isn't so important and bo3 are too long. So I'll go for fun over guess efficiency with a single round. However that's just my opinion and I get your point

[@frangeek90]

Please make this a series! It was so fun

[@bogbupog]

The production here is awesome

[@ZayZayZayZay]

Nice video, similar to guess the Elo in chess and pretty much just as fun

[@realmellomoka]

Turn this into a series. EZ clap renewable content

[@NickJJU]

Man, that Faust vs Goldlewis match turning out to be Celestial made me so sad. Faust didn't even know how to MMM loop in the corner! Guess he's got some skills I don't

[@MrZeplon]

Honestly goated content.

[@amikawi]

Please do this again. This was fire

[@greedlings]

That Ky vs Ram I could not believe that was celestial. I play like that Ky and I keep getting gatekept outta celestial. Maybe there’s hope for me yet

[@IndigoMecha]

Yeah, it's wild. In floor 10 I'm usually fighting players way more optimal than that, it was hard to believe. Just goes to show in the end it's also a bit of luck on who you get paired against. I've had some really easy matches in celestial, but I always come across actually amazing players up there that gatekeep me before I get the last win or two.

[@affegpus4195]

That anji was like "i heard that you can 6P Ram's pokes"

[@funnycoffinman9700]

I played Goldlewis VS Faust in Celestial and was legit scared when I saw their round start pop up, 'cause this could've been one of our sets. Colors don't match though. I don't remember the dude's nickname but I love playing with hime despite being at a disadvantage with both of my most played characters.

[@FreshSakuya]

This has inspired me to try out the Celestial Challenge 😸 Jokes aside, this is a pretty fun watch. It's kind of absurd seeing the kinds of play people make at other ranks. It's like teetering between the edge of genius and insanity (though mostly into insanity)

[@Lazergician]

100% need more of this

[@ButchLesbianSolBadguy]

I'll telling you man, 6p is this games menace

[@marting1]

I have not watched yet. But i need more of these. Ok?

[@marting1]

as someone who has watched the clip. i would like to see more of these as well.

[@Frost_Winterfall]

this video honestly makes me feel more confident in playing my first ranked matches lol, did the placement and got floor 6, but I know how to play Baiken at least a decent amount which is better than some of the things I saw in this video

[@Talking_Ed]

That faust trying to dive kick for like 5 times in a row, def celestial, mom didn't raise a quitter.

[@aridrabkin9649]

This was electric. Please do another one.

[@YaBoiJosid]

Excellent content!!

[@crimsonpotemkin]

#5, #8 and #9 made me cry laughing.

[@ShellShocks14]

more of these with some critique/advice/notes pls

[@GuerrillaGorilla023]

Going from floor 3 to 9 in 2 months made me pretty good at this game haha. You'd be surprised the combos some people crank out at low ranks. Meanwhile on 9 I'm dropping combos and high-lowing for the win

[@randomkid802]

That may knows something we dont bro

[@2ndai385]

I can’t believe Sajam is on Diaphone’s channel as a guest

[@rafaelfranciscoturri5988]

reaally like this different stuff

[@dontgetgrabbed]

Awesome idea for a series

[@edivimo]

Wait, I think Match #4 was one of my matches as I-no: it has my color, my floor level, my failure in dealing with Ky pressure, my failure in using a Roman Cancel...and yes, I always forget that note exists. 😅😅

[@Diaphone]

Respect owning up to it. I think if you learned to hitconfirm 2k 2d into note (or stroke on block) you would easily go up a floor

[@edivimo]

@@Diaphone I own it because I'm a Millia main with very few hours with I-no, so I have an excuse of all my mistakes :D . But if that match isn't mine, that looks exactly like me, a Millia main, trying to learn I-no: 1- she is "dashing" to try to approach the opponent, instead of stroking or dive-kicking, 2- she did several air-dashes to approach, because that's Millia's default approach, 3- her 2D doesn't connect several times, because Millia's 2D is longer than I-no's , so is misjudging the range, 4- doesn't use note, because Millia doesn't have a "projectile", 5- And the most clear evidence: she's using chemical love to "avoid" ky's projectiles, because that's how you do a Mirazh from Millia.

[@yosha101]

I haven't been below like celestial/F10 in fucking ages but I still more or less know EXACTLY which floors these players at!

[@ZeUbermeinsch]

These from the same servers? Feel like the skill levels differ a lot between servers. JP floor 8 is full of guys that do optimal stuff but they got bad defense/neutral.

[@Diaphone]

Taken at random so prob not

[@greedsin555]

Love this style stuff

[@CorpLvlNinja]

I got 3 minutes in and felt so much better about my gameplay. I'm floor 4 forever but I can DP and Super so I'm kind of impressive. Haha

[@CorpLvlNinja]

Then I got to minue 4 and I'm back where I was. Nooooo

[@FranktheSkeleton]

Internally yelling at the Ram in match #2 to use her swords in any way

[@michaelmcqueeferton6911]

I only got to floor 7 but I feel like the guys I go against are really good. I think the floors got harder since the game came out, so it’s mostly experienced players on any floor above 5

[@drftr6073]

last may thinkin she minin diamonds deadass

[@MidnightBlueRed]

Lmao I need more of this.

[@solismax65]

That may super into rc into an overhead to confirm the super is cursed

[@petlemons]

Watching this 1 year later. I am new to fighting games, and I got to floor 8 pretty quick. Then i started learning new character and dropped to floor 3. I swear floor 3 is sweatier than anyone I have fought in floor 7 or 8. I don't know if these dudes are just throwing matches until they drop to the low floors. Guys are throwing great mixups, seem to know frame data for all my shit and rarely drop combos. I don't get it!

[@slaxis3926]

If the Match #10 players were on Japan servers, they’d be 2 or 3 floors below for sure. 5F players on my region already know how to properly burst, have a few decent mixups and combos, and have the patience to enact supers.

[@wlatol6512]

Somehow level of play varies a lot depending on the time when you play. Getting to floor 5-6 in the evening and then getting slapped by a bunch of floor 3 kiskes to f4 is my daily routine for like a month now. Also I get the feeling that skill floor has got a bunch higher since this video's release, most of those 5f games look like 3f now. (I am new to the fighting games so I may be wrong)

[@BlueDragon7100]

I see these Chipps and May's in Celestial

[@ML-kb7il]

I haven’t seen what games look like below 7 😂

[@swagtasticpanda]

i don't watch too much strive but this series is very fun. reminds me of will it kill in a way.

[@michaelmcqueeferton6911]

I guessed everyone correctly! It’s probably since I play so much floor 8, so I can tell who is at my level and above 😂

[@buritosman2824]

Love the content!

[@merzbowbb]

such a fun video idea

[@LTDP-TappingT]

Bro, Match #10 was me playing against May. Lost 1 set to her and this is the second set that I played against her. LMAO. That's the skin color set that I used prior to changing to red and blonde.

[@FaceD0wnDagon]

Gonna do my prediction right before Diaphone on the vid, scout's honor I guess! Match 1 Chipp vs Sol: Yeah this is not suuuper low, they understand some concepts, I'm going to guess floor 4. (Actuality: Floor 1?!? Wow.) Match 2 Chipp vs Ram: Trying to learn from the previous match, but there's chaos inherent to the ranking system. I'm still going to be conservative and say floor 3. (Actuality: Floor 4!) Match 3 Goldlewis vs Faust: This kinda looks roughly like my games give or take. So, I'll just guess my own floor: 9. (Actuality: Celestial! Wow, maybe I could reach higher if I got into the grind.) Match 4 I-no vs Ky: This *also* kinda looks roughly like some of my games lol. What can I say, there's give and take in these things! I'll just guess floor 9 again. (actuality: Floor 8. Alright, not bad!) Match 5 May vs Zato: Oh dear, this is a one-sided match where May is going for clip content stuff. This is hard to tell, but I'll guess floor 9 just this one more time. (Actuality: Floor 7.) Match 6 Ky vs Ram: OK this one I have to not let Diaphone bait me. The fundamentals were solid-ish, but the interactions were very short most of the time, and some of those drops feel really obvious. I'm guessing floor 7. (Actuality: Celestial! Wow...) Match 7 Leo vs Sol: Hard to say for me, I've known Leos that played exactly like this on relatively low floors. I'm going to guess floor 8. (Actuality: Floor 9) Match 8 Nago mirror: I have a particularly hard time judging Nago players, but these especially are baffling to me. There are some bizarre pops, but some nice combos, and I just have no idea...I'll say Celestial. This might be the kind of madness that's just sane enough. (Actuality: Floor 7. My bad!)

[@FaceD0wnDagon]

Back from dinner for the rest: Match 9 Anji vs Ram: Alright this man is trolling for sure, which makes it harder to guess the true level. I'll guess floor 7. (Actuality: Floor 6.) Match 10 May vs Gio: Yeah this one feels like honest loew-level plays. Floor 2 is my guess. (Actuality: Floor 5. Wew lad...)

[@romaindanze1512]

Damn, I started to play two months ago, and the level seems to have raise quite a lot. Beeing curently on floor four, I can assure these guys on the second fight would get obliterated by nearly anybody.

[@TaeAhn]

Pleeeeease turn this into a series...!!

[@Xenji5]

How many people are actually on each floor? Is there any way to tell?

[@Maraxusofk]

I think both celestiala were obvious. the first faust rc'ed to burst bait which nobody below celestial does, and the second one ram had hit confirming her round start daruo, which people below celestial dont do

[@Eaode]

how are you in celestial and dont have a dust combo?>?

[@BIG_G_512]

the pretty bad celestials really made the whole thing harder

[@sliceospice]

how can we submit our clips?

[@Diaphone]

Hmm idk if I'll do clip submission but we'll see, follow twitter cause ill announce there

[@greedsin555]

Feel like I should be good at this considering I climbed from F4 to F9

[@Athesies]

holy shit i love that anji player

[@seokkyunhong8812]

The most cursed thing about this video is the giant "MILPY" sign behind his head. Quite possibly the worst anime bland name product I've seen

[@kylematthiesen410]

Wait aren't all Mays floor 1?

[@thegoose8663]

You have too much respect for CL

[@periclescomoeddie5215]

I am so fucking mad at the celestial clips.

[@Nikola-hz1rc]

I have around 20 hours and i have no idea what am i doing and im floor 8, i really don't think floors represent how good you are at the game, maybe in floor 10 or celestial
