[@clebinho5399]

all these ggst players thinking to themselves: "neutral? you mean just mixup and pressure and make 50/50 decisions all time?"

[@Bloodlyshiva]

The genre's been getting more like that, more pure aggression for ever and ever. People wanted it, I guess.

[@mallusaih]

there was some video about how skipping neutral is a part of neutral

[@dj_koen1265]

Its a video by sajam

[@dj_koen1265]

As for strive guilty gear was always about aggression And the biggest thing that they neutered was the air game and movement As for sf6, yeah feel sorry for the people who dont like it But its quite popular at least, both of them are very popular

[@Emuney12]

I never knew this existed. I unironically NEED to play this because I jump waaay too much in fighting games.

[@AnActualDinosaur]

"Of course I have footsies, how did I win Capcom Cup?" Later: "I need a command grab" There you go! lol (no disrespect though)

[@El-Burrito]

Whiffpunisher is the one I found most difficult. The strat I always used is to just walk him down into the corner so he can't back away anymore and then chip him out

[@SuperArt7]

Walk back into the corner and then do the knee into donkey kick when he misses

[@milosmisic89]

justakid got real humbled by..... "blocker"

[@TheMuffinsama]

Lol I like how this video shows what Punk was talking about on his interview with Justin, ppl are bad at footsies and neutral

[@kyril98741]

Punk also struggle with this games a bit.

[@illford]

You know I bet most fighting game players, including punk, would struggle

[@Dan-Ky-Kang]

Footsies in a more traditional fighting game environment is a tool - it is not the point unlike this game.

[@powertreadssupremacy]

​@@Dan-Ky-KangFootsies is the most fundamental fighting game or fighting game component. This video proves most players rely heavily on gimmicks.

[@coreywhitaker883]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@powertreadssupremacyI mean each cpu in this game was a cpu that relied on some sort of gimmick and the cpus did pretty well.

JAK providing Justin with that quality content 😂

[@merlinthetuna]

"Calculated whiff" got me

[@momo.ru-kun]

I love how Justin sounds encouraging, supportive and condescending at the same time depending on your perspective 😅

[@Sintoolkicks]

so for most people, their one weakness (among many) is blocking

[@Hillthugsta]

When games in the current day promote aggression, blocking becomes a lost art.

[@losvortex10]

Hey if you're around Tampa still there's an arcade that has mvc2 in it.. we go Tuesdays and Thursdays😅

[@D201-o4k]

"stay moist, you know what im sayin?"

[@bazzfromthebackground3696]

Just Hold Block Blocker out here cleaning up the competition.

[@MrMarket1987]

If I have any similar anecdote to share on learning the ropes of footsies and neutral the hard way, I wanna say The Simpsons Arcade game was a good lesson on that from way back before I even touched a proper 1v1 fighting game; Even more than TMNT Arcade was I wager.

[@obsplays5311]

"You whiffed 4 times.. 5 times!!!" Literally dying.

[@leekwen]

I cheesed this game on mobile by holding back into the wall until the CPU attacks then countering

[@georgesears934]

I love how 90% of them just straight up said "Nah, my neutral is trash." it's funny and very encouraging to newcomers how self effacing and humble even pro players are!

[@曉p-p7t]

In the mini game mode, the whiff punish game is hardest for me, as I have arse reaction time.

[@Ellesenzacognome]

You shouldn't refer only to your reaction time

[@fillername917]

Very comforting knowing some amazing players also got stuck on punisher like I did. Know I feel a little less ass.

[@prometheus3396]

The fact that majority of players can’t get past blocker is a perfect example of how learning defensive fundamentals and being good at punishing will get you very far in fighting games.

[@monkeyduhluffy]

Blocker had JAK going THROUGH it lol

[@rodrigopereira7711]

Nice😂😂, u could beat the Challenges in the final part of the video to show us, It would be a Nice touch

[@ShaneDouglas713]

21:49 *Raging Footies*

[@Seydaschu]

Reminds me of when I hosted retro games for JR high book club. Playing Super Punch Out, everyone could beat Gabby Jay by mashing, but I think only one kid could beat Bear Hugger, could've been zero. That's a controls check. I had a poster with controls by the TV, but kids who read enough books to win a game night don't read instructions!

[@cagethelonewolf]

love how difficult the game is being able to confirm when you thought you wiffed is a true skill

[@peepss2616]

21:38 unironically a lot of people lost to blocker because blocker plays like an old school FG whereas modern FG players are super aggressive due to the product of modern FG games rewarding offensive playstyles.

[@rexthewolf3149]

This is some of the biggest cap I’ve ever heard.
