One of the ways i think would help in getting better would be to make a character chart. You don't really count wins but you should count how many times you win a round with a character and team composition. Look at which character you win the most rounds with and look at the ones below that and so on. You should lean on the characters you have the most success with and understand why that happens. Edit: Also the same should be done with team comps.

What about memorizing combos? I keep trying stuff out but I keep forgetting the moveset . I always just end up mashing. For someone new it feels scary cus it's too much info to retain. I don't even know where to start! I've played fighting games for most my life, but in a very casual way. You know, just playing the arcade mode and against friends. So I've never learned anything too complex.
@SewrRat2 жыл бұрын
The reason you mash is because you get worried correct? Id that's the case, you need to stop worrying about winning and losing. Focus on learning. Regardless if you're losing or not, keep in mind to not mash. Learn which buttons do what, and once you understand that, you'll start seeing combos not as one long set of inputs, but a bunch of small inputs in succession. When I first got into fighting games I struggled with the same thing, though not to the degree of which I see people struggle now. Keep in mind that fighting games are more than just memorizing the combos, its about quick decision making, situational awareness, understanding your opponents, and knowing your matchups. I understand it's a lot, so break pieces of info you understand into chunks, and then combine those chunks together.
@duckjab11172 жыл бұрын
I know this reply is really late but all you can do is go into practice mode and do the combo/combos until they become muscle memory.
@no_nameyouknow2 жыл бұрын
Start with the simple combos you can do and add more complex ones over time. Don't start off trying to master a combo that is hard for you, it's useless without good fundamentals anyways. If you have solid fundamentals you don't even need complex combos to beat most people. Combos are ones of the less important aspects, they come naturally over time but they won't let you win without being able to hit without getting hit i.e. fundamentals.
@triplearielinfinite2 Жыл бұрын
personally, what worked for me was using mnemonics to remember combos and making them personal. i learned 2-3 cool combos i liked (i didn't care about complexity) and split them up into 3 inputs each, giving them a name to crafting a story. for example, i named a combo "glomp" cause it was funny plus its unforgettable, and named the two 3 inputs "forward hug" and "under hug" which made it easy to remember. after a while, you begin to see similar patterns and you understand what moves to connect with what input. its like understanding a language, at first it just sounds like gibberish that looks impossible to figure out, but you start to see patterns just by recognizing chunks of that gibberish. you'd be surprised how many combos just repeat the same 3 input sequences. after seeing the same things, it starts to become common sense. at that point, you can easily make your own combos. you need to learn the rules before you break them tho
