how to consistently beat mashing in DBFZ

[@MastaBroshiX]

Many simple concepts that make me realize I have just as many bad habits as the players I complain about the only thing I'm doin well here is blocking and slowing people down, thanks for the knowledge 🙌🏾

SS4 Gogeta with the cursed 5LL

[@keybladeapologist.1131]

Oh it's so annoying

[@Codyiguess]

@@keybladeapologist.1131it’s not too bad. I hate a lot more about this game.

[@Tht1BlkGuy2007]

Its so cursed that when u vanish while hes is the animation you'll still get hit. Behind him or infront of him theres no escapr

[@darkemperor418]

I'm not even mad when I lose to ss4 gogeta anymore. Also wanted to point out he has absolute mad framerates and good ssfgta players don't mash at all they just know the exact timing on the advantage of quicker framerates. They will play that character and press those buttons like they're on clouds very lightly and with precision. I play bluku, blk and tien. I can press the buttons like clouds too but my characters are no way near the quickness of fusions especially ss4gta

The video we needed but didn't deserve. We need more videos like this explaining neutral, normals and confirmations and potential combos.

[@Amiracole]

Great guide as always Aco! Maybe one day you can provide a guide on covering tech options and fully utilizing oki (maybe even a little character specific examples)

[@MisterAcolyte]

that's a good idea!

A triple c assist's play strategy: jump up and down till c assist gauge fills up again.

[@Y20XTongvaLand]

Can someone explain the C assist meme?

[@liamfoote7164]

​@@Y20XTongvaLandBasically C assists are really powerful assists but are balanced around the fact they have a much higher cooldown than A or B assists. They also are made to guarantee a combo if you get hit by one, so you if you get clipped by one it will hurt.

Beauty in simplicity 👌🏻💯 Knowing these and having someone who use them effectively give you tips to reinforce them help with the mental stack and doubts in game. It's really good stuff

[@jahelyux]

Omg thanks so much Aco, I always learn a lot with you, from the normal videos, the guide, the match reviews, everything. Keep going

[@MisterAcolyte]

glad to hear it!

[@notkitanax8278]

Thanks for the tips sometimes I just genuinely have to play a little slower and consider my options and game plan

[@redoubt5]

Really simple and great guide, and came at a time when I needed it a lot. Much love, bro.

Another great tutorial, i have been missing many basic, but effective tips.

Thank you Aco, very helpful advices! This is why I love watching your gameplay and gameplan!

I love your videos bro !! Your English is so clear that allows me to understand everything and you're helping me to improve my skills and now I'm thinking about what to do instead of just play like crazy hahaa thank you buddy !!

that's awesome! Really glad to hear it, thank you!

Getting to the point i dont have to plug A MajinAcolyte video for knowledge... just the channel in general.. great video

[@vbez8644]

Was so confused about how the floating mechanic worked. I was starting to think it was exclusive to PC. Awesome vid, Aco. Now my Kefla will be unstoppable

[@wildrussiansnake8978]

Sorry but this was really funny, imagine they had something so powerfull locked in one platform 💀

[@CrimsoniteSP]

I'm about to make a really weird comparison, but a lot of tips shown here is all stuff I learned in Smash. In Smash, learning your movement is the most important thing. Of course, it's a platform fighter, you need to master movement just to get onto platforms. Well a lot of the tips here has been just master your movement. Don't be afraid to move back to full screen, utilize micro spacing, give them space rather than making space for yourself. I guess I never realized how important movement is in this game, but also the types of movement. I might be aware of float and super jumps, momentum jumps, but I never really execute more than just air dashing. Just kinda more focused on what my opponent is doing and what options I may have to directly punish it.

[@MisterAcolyte]

hahaha yeah I can see the comparison to this and smash due to how movement is one of the biggest aspects of the game!

[@CrimsoniteSP]

@@MisterAcolyte I've been playing Smash competitively for like 8 years now. So if I try to learn concepts in other games, I have Smash brain, lol. This has helped me a lot to realize stuff I've been doing wrong but comparing some of the methods to Smash helps me specifically.

[@vprtheaggod6389]

Thx for the amazing vid, I am new, that really helped. Can please make a full movement guide?

[@MisterAcolyte]

glad to hear it helped! yeah i'm planning a purely movement guide soon!

[@soulsedge6870]

Great guide! thanks you, I hope I can apply this to my gameplay.

[@FerreroNoRocher]

Ur guides are so good bro 🙏 thanks

Aco is no the fact you have Few subscribers is the fact That few of us are blessed to know you

[@april_suzume]

thank you so much! i really needed a video exactly like this! i’ve been asking multiple ppl who play this game for advice & now i finally got a sense of what i should be doing in neutral. what’s a really good way to punish whiffs or punish something that’s not a real string?

[@MisterAcolyte]

whiff punishing in this game in general can be really hard due to how low recovery most special moves have. Usually whiff punishes have to be reads, and when it comes to strings you can reflect any time there's a gap!

[@naitsirc481]

I totally forgot you can super jump with S lmfao

[@peckbat01]

Sometimes I get scared to take my turn because some opponents are cheeky and like to reflect when their turn is up so I just dragon rush instead.

[@MisterAcolyte]

that's a pretty high commitment! I'd recommend getting some anti-reflect strings for those situations! Every character has a series of buttons you can press that will win even if the opponent reflects! Some pretty common ones are 5L > 5M, 5L > 5H, 4LL etc! Reflect usually only makes you unsafe if you commit to auto combo!

[@DrumzGalore]

Hey brahh...Do you play West coast??I think i seen your name before

[@LeoLikeNoOther]

What controller has R1 & R2 on the face?

[@MisterAcolyte]

all fightpads, they've been pretty common since street fighter 4 in 09.

[@weichunhung3737]

Super helpful guide, I didn't know about the super jump and everything mentioned, I am noob in the game, although I have like 300 hrs in the game. If possible can you please cover how to confirm a combo with A assist or B assist, I still struggling in that part

[@MisterAcolyte]

glad to hear it! It's hard to do a general guide for extending combos with assists because every assist has it's own timing! the best way to practice though is by working on the timing in training mode. Depending on how fast or slow the assist is, you have to call it before, after, or during the moment you hit H to send them down!

[@weichunhung3737]

@@MisterAcolyte Got it, Big thanks

[@4893obie]

I understand there are alot of options defensively, but I feel like if I block I lose the game. Just like Marvel I can never get in a rhythm with these type of assist based fighting games. I have a love hate relationship with these type of chaotic fighting games. Lol

[@MisterAcolyte]

this game can be really challenging but It's really not as bad as it seems! if you haven't seen my guide on improving your defense i would recommend that as well! With a little bit of practice you can get a lot better at blocking!

Every time I try to float it does a ki blast then I float help please?

[@MisterAcolyte]

if you hit S by itself then your ki blast will come out! Try covering it with something first! For example do a backdash first, hold S during the backdash, then jump!

[@lonelyrock4795]

@@MisterAcolyte The best way I could get it to work was press L and hold S. I play on standard controller for console idk if that helps Can you float after you got hit with 2H? or is floating only for fainting your opponent?

[@bofygaming9672]

Mashing is a play style its fair

[@lessmore93]

How do I know if I am plus or not?

[@KutsuWutsu]

You just gotta learn the frame data of the characters of the game, dustloop is a good resource for questions like that

[@MisterAcolyte]

go to the information settings in training mode, it will show you there! However as long as you're on someone's block, or they block an assist then you are likely "plus". You're usually not fully negative in this game until you run out of buttons in a string, or do a special move!
