I'm slowly piecing things back together

[@zpacezekonia4482]

Catastrophizing is something im doing and i need work on. thanks for bringing that up. were with you man!

[@AbnormalTibby]

This channel helps my mental health. I’d love to play a couple games with you and learn life. Your take on fighting in the moment, taking it all in, is something I can appreciate. I haven’t really even found my main yet, been going through a mid life crisis over arena fighters recently.

[@SoulInajar]

Go outside jesus. This is what’s wrong with y’all people in the first place. Y’all rely on the internet for other people’s happiness to be happy yourself.

[@AbnormalTibby]

@@SoulInajar why would you even comment this? I have a dog whom I walk 3 times a day, rain, snow or shine. I also work outside tying steel, setting up lights for harsh weather and I even longboard as much as I can when it isn’t winter. You have absolutely no desire to actually help someone out, you are just here to point fingers. Don’t even think you know anybody off a single KZbin comment. Also, how is asking for an online match relevant to my happiness?

[@SoulInajar]

@@AbnormalTibby because it’s honest. People rely on the internet and Internet personalities for their betterment and forget they’re a personality themselves the main character to their own life. I ain’t being rude I’m trynna help, but I ain’t gonna sugar cost things either. Hell I was just like y’all in 2018. Gotta do better for yourselves and live your best lives. You should be helping your mental health not this gameplay cause you’re the therapist to yourself not this random KZbinr.

[@AbnormalTibby]

@@SoulInajar bro you are not trying to help. You 1 video on your KZbin channel and you aren’t talking about anything. I make $5k a month, I take care of my friends and family, I love my job and I’m not even depressed. So I don’t even know why you felt obligated to point fingers like this. I’m not relying on him for anything, I’m acknowledging his intelligence. The guy is just being human and I was trying to do the same. I’ve done nothing to you and yet, you are out here just trying to make me feel bad for no reason.

[@SoulInajar]

@@AbnormalTibbyyou really think I care how much money you make ? Lol sign one of depression: try to impress others with what you have vs impressing yourself. Now you’ll say you’re impressed however I beg to differ if you gotta scream “I make money” lol 5 k is my rent buddy. Idk what kind of bragging you’re doing but relax, stop, go get some help. You’re depressed

[@KarmaDama]

My salt remedy: 1 - Recognize and praise your opponent's skill 2 - Understand they are human, just like you, and if they can do it so can you (eventually) 3 - Recognize when you're tired or burned out and close the game IMMEDIATELY. Seeing yourself fail over and over again at simple stuff is a huge demotivator.

[@cheesezpleaze]

Man every time I see a video from you talking about your struggles in fighting games and the mental aspects that go into them I swear it feels like I have a twin out there

[@hostvarious]

Kudos my catastrophizing brotha. Keep challenging those thoughts, we're with you 🙏

[@johnnycarvalho9064]

Dude... about being drastic with some little thoughts... I'm the same as you. It is good to hear that other person knows this kind of pain and acknowledges it. I've been trying to handle these situations (and even engaged in psychiatric treatment) to take care of myself and my mental health. Hope you're doing fine. P.S: sorry for the bad english, I'm from Brasil

[@thetendieteam]

I know exactly what you mean about the corner pressure! After the first string I just end up kinda staring at them.

[@veegpp]

I'm here to pump the views for the vid, stayed because the mindset you share also applied to me

[@georgesmith5201]

I'm facing a similar crisis. I'm like 100 points below platinum rank on Luke, but I'm stuck because my bs isn't working anymore. 😂 I'm so bored in the practice room, I rather just fight people.

[@veegpp]

Not sure if it'll help but in terms of the mindset in game, FChamprara has some vids as well that can help especially in the neutral

[@StruffyTheClown]

I'll never be as good as an angrybird or a tokido ... but so what? And yea about knowing the game.. how often do we actually *ACTIVELY* lab things out? How often do we boot up the game saying to our selfs: no ranked today, I gotta figure out as much as possible about what [insert character I struggle against] can do and how my character can answer these things. Comb throw the [character] twitter, the discords, look for popular strings, mixups, what is safe and what isnt and then learn or come up with ways on how to force these disadventageous scenarios..? Character is bad on wakeup? How do I loop my offense to take advantage of that? How do I start that offense? What tools of that character can I whiffpunish into oki pressure? Etc. Etc. Etc. For me, the answer is "never". I get annoyed by ONE thing, lab that. Turn of the game. Next time I already forgot what I did.... And then I wonder why I dont improve >.>

[@juliofirpo6657]

Bro, are you me? I always back off at the corner. And sad thing is, I realized it on my own AND I STILL DO IT. 🤦🏽‍♂️ I also catastrophize. Gotta work through it. I even did CBT and I still do it. Fighting games bring it out of me. We are better than a majority of the player base but we still measure ourselves to the best. Gotta work on that. My opponent didn't beat me, I beat myself. Gotta know the difference. 😎

[@Majik202_]

Hell yeah, fuck the stinkin thinkin, challenge those thoughts I been in a space of ranked anxiety, I don't want to lose games and lose my points but I'm lookin to overcome those thoughts this week

[@kye4216]

Lilly’s DP actually can work against throws, it just doesn’t work against meaties.

[@jeremibrogowski6038]

What controler do you use?

[@tenshi4431]

Would love to see you play some tekken anyways

[@StainnsEd]

As much as i think the game is fun, i feel like ive been playing the same game since the beta.I wish there was a balance patch when Aki came out.

[@kye4216]

I really don’t think a balance patch is going to change the game that much.

[@heroicsquirrel3195]

I thought the same as you and used to get angry af sometimes but accepted i dont lab really and that a lot of these master guys beating me are complete no life sweat lord kids that play battle hub matches like its evo😂, i will never be that desperate for a win or to improve anymore and ive actually got a life (im 35 married with a kid) these guys must be 25 or less with no responsibilities, you seem young so the game may feel more important but at the end of the day just enjoy your level and have fun because do you really wanna be one of those terminally online sf6 sweats that doesn’t even enter tournaments or earn any money whose addicted to winning in a game because their life is empty and meaningless or do you wanna have fun

[@kye4216]

Most people who are sick at the game have a normal life and are normal people. Trying to degrade the people in real life to cope with them beating you in a video game is weak af.

[@KarmaDama]

​@@kye4216 Damn straight, a lot of pro players stream and talk about their lives. Nuckledu even plays FOR his family.

[@StephGoKrazy]

That’s not a good excuse there’s been multiple guys 30-36 who have won fighting game tournaments and they have kids and wives. It’s easier to just say that you don’t want to get better at the game than to try and justify why you can’t beat masters players.

[@Nostalgiaforinfi]

this game is meant to be played with drive gauge. you need to drive rush or drive rush cancel more. you cant play this like ST or 3S.
