Naturally there are characters/fighting games where there is an exception, fighting games are too broad not to have an exception to every rule... but in general, and in *any competitive game*, you do something risky because you want to change the state of the game. If by keeping the state of the game the same you are going to win (AKA: you have the life lead and the opponent is in your character's preferred spacing) then there's no reason to take a risk... and at the same time if you're behind then you have all the more reason to take risks: if it doesn't pay off you just lose a losing game faster. It doesn't just have to be a life lead, either. If Balrog is on top of you and you're just waking up, an invincible reversal may be risky, but is it as risky as letting him stay on top of you? Take a risk to change the state of the game.
@ShinDMitsuki3 жыл бұрын
There is a reason to take risk sometimes when you are in the lead, momentum. It can go really far to dominate a person, then shut them down further with something ridiculous. It will mean you aren't just winning, you are camping out in their head. "Even if I deal with his shit he might just randomly XXX!"
@kevingriffith60113 жыл бұрын
@@ShinDMitsuki Part of that is because this is because human psychology makes everything nebulous. If you're up against an opponent who lives on anticipating your moves and being inside your head then the conventional wisdom of the "right time" to take a risk is exactly when they're going to be looking for you to take a risk... which can lead to a web of circular logic "I would do this, but you'd be expecting that because you're good, so I should do this... but this is Evo grand finals and you're really good, so you'd anticipate that I'd anticipate that, so I should..." . Sometimes the right idea is to take the risk while you can afford to lose the life, but you'll win more consistently against randos by taking risks at the "logical" time.

I think one of the reasons why people tend to not want to learn or play the game, but also have the desire to give their opinion even if it's completely invalid, is that for the vast majority of players they want to be a part of a community more than they want to play. The game is the pretext to interact and discuss topics with other people. Whether what they have to say is legitimate or not doesn't matter. They just want to have an opinion and share it.

I find the topic of top players playing "too safe" to be interesting; I see it a lot in Tekken. Probably Knee's only weakness as a player is the fact that he often refuses to take a risk. I cannot tell you how many times I've seen him lose the life lead late in the round and thought, "Well, Knee lost." Probably the best example of this was Evo 2019 vs Arslan Ash. Knee has stated many times that the only way he can beat Arslan is with mixups. He gets into grand finals vs Arslan, picks Mishimas, and then proceeds to never go for any mixups and loses the match. There's a time to play like Knee, and there's a time to play like Eyemusician.
@DXYS953 жыл бұрын
I kind of understand why Knee doesn't go for those mixups though. He might think: "hey, if I do hellsweep and I hit them, I get a little bit of damage and a knockdown into possibly more pressure. If they block it though, I die". Maybe the reason he picks Mishimas is just so his opponent has to think about mixups, so that they try to block low sometimes and get launched. But everyone knows Knee won't go for it by now

Great video, while I was watching I was applying these ideas to other games such as League of Legends or Valorant as well. For me it’s always been easy to beat lower to mid level players in any game by playing safe and capitalizing off of their mistakes. The real challenge for me in FG’s and other games is when I’m playing against higher level players and I need to take risks, but due to my lack of experience of specifically taking risks I typically fail when I attempt them. Completely agree that playing safe is easier and less “thought provoking” than taking (calculated) risks in any game.
@gliath8883 жыл бұрын
A great example of playing super safe without taking risks, even at high level pro play is Arslan Ash when he first showed up in the Tekken scene and caused a massive upset at Evo Japan. Even the best players still fall into basic pitfalls like being impatient or going for high risk plays, and he capitalized off that entirely.

And when it happened I immediate thought “wow” I’m dumb, I got away with crap. But then I went back and considered why I did those moves. The first one was a whiff punish, the second one was part of a high-low-high mix up, the third one was a high-commitment reaction to the tech back, and the forth was a read on the opponents retreat/approach habits. They weren’t the best choices but I feel like they had some intent. Even if it looks super dumb. Maybe I had better options to do those things, and maybe I need to practice converting those raw hits into combos.... but things often happen for a reason.

@@stolensentience Disregarding zero risk option selects like safe jumps, there are very few options that are zero risk in most games. You might hear poke into fireball described as safe even when the opponent has resources to punish the gap. When people say "safe", it's more about your resources combined with your position and most importantly the risk you subject yourself to. Even a quick poke that's plus can get beat out on startup or whiff, sometimes a slow fireball at full-screen is bad because it takes longer to throw the next one and the opponent gets in for free. Being safe on block and losing your turn doesn't mean you got hit, but does mean you've lost your advantage which is terrible in some matchups. Hopefully this makes sense.

The difference in difficulty isn't that learning mechanics and terms and when they best apply, it's the raw talent to hit links and hard inputs consistently that make fighting games unfun for people, especially when so many people making easier input fighting games out to be trash for casuals and babies.

Honestly, the reason in tekken it works is because tekken doesn't have meter to unlock for you defensive options. All the defensive options you can get are unlocked from the start of the match till the end. There are almost always 3 defensive options that beats a flowchart with various degrees of risk and reward associated with each option. The equation is flipped in tekken, its when the opponent plays crazy good defense that would include taking unfavorable routes to dunk on the opponents offense.

When he gets a knockdown you HAVE TO hold back. If he is in stance, his low kick is grab invincible, beats anything you can press really, and he can eat any of your reversals with a button press that combos into a super if he so desires or can put you back in knockdown. I see all the time people searching for a solution to it, but the answer is never "accept that I am going to be holding back until he does something I know he isn't allowed to do." I think that's also why the word "honest" is bullshit. A lot of people call Ky "honest," but he is way more ridiculous than Leo in almost every way and is a far better character. He can snuff you from across the screen, he has incredible oki, his meterless pressure is insane and he will tick throw you for days. There really is nothing honest feeling about it, but because he technically doesn't require you to hold back at some point in his setplay (with meter at least) he is honest? Not to mention Leo has to earn that knockdown with horrible normals against characters like Ky, who destroys him at all ranges when they are in neutral. It's more just that people want the game to be mashing buttons, but when they do, the other person technically gets to never stop pressing buttons because at some point it's easy to realize when a person is never going to accept that set play exist at all. "My magic DP button doesn't get me out of dealing with Oki, this character is bullshit." type stuff. Maybe, I don't know. I just make casual observations from playing so I'm open to being told I have no idea what I'm talking about.

Online Leo just degenerates into "Opponent blocked any button, time to 236H" because you can't throw him out of it on reaction in Xrd's garbage netplay. So instead of having to play neutral he just hits any button and then goes behind you with plus frames. He doesn't actually have to play Neutral. That completely changes in an offline environment, but must people don't have and never had access to a local Xrd scene.

Honestly that tatsu could of just been him expressing himself. "I can just do whatever" kind of thing. Probably wasn't but just food for thought.

Wouldn’t the boomers be the ones who compare current Overwatch to when it was actually a relevant game
