Lore tidbit, Xcel is a Tekken main, he’s willing to let you make mistakes and die to your own actions, which is part of why he plays guile. He’s absolutely willing to turtle, he’s been shown in Aris’s Rev Major watchalong fighting against Knee in Tekken 7, managing to get a game while hopped up on more caffeine in an hour than he’s ever had in his life 🤣 Favorite player to get frustrated against, would fight more!

I feel like, could be wrong of course, fighting game is more of a mentality than a skill set. Like, I've had my huge share of defeats and sometimes I raged alone for a second or two and I admit, people 1&doning me or just waiting the whole coutndown to select an option do get on my nerves but, overall, it's about improving and the joy of measuring up against an opponent and feeling alive through that. You fight, you learn, you improve and it's all the better if you have some friends to share it with and have a good laugh. I played fighting games since SF2 I think and I've never really been good at them but I loved the Kakate Koi mentality, the shonen hero part of it. TBH SF6 is the first one I've forced myself to put some real hours into and try to actually train for it and, so far, even through the modern turtles and every little pet peeves, it's been a wonderful journey. Took me about a year to go from silver to master and I feel like the iceberg is still huge and there is so much to climb and have fun with. From the little lucky victories, to the one you carefully planned to the 10 losses in a row where you actually learned something and are glad your stronger opponent stuck to the set and rematched you. Fighting games really are something ^_^

If you can't beat lucky opponents you need to yeet some pennies into the well; if you don't know about standard luckmaxxing - basic ladder avoidance, black cat respecting etc - then ur literally throwing ur own games and ur refusal to force god to throw loaded dice in ur favour is pure scrub mentality.

I cannot imagine playing the same game for an entire year with a scrub mindset the whole time. That sounds like actual hell.

People need to stop playing when tilted.

Thats the best way to sum it up. If you think the person who beat you was lucky. Run it back. But 9 times out of 10. When someone claims their opponent was lucky it is just another scrub making excuses for their latest loss.

My favorite scrubquotes are always the ones where they complain about something being "cheap" or "lucky" then you check the replay and it turns out that THEY were the one trying to play cheap or lucky or scrubby but just got checked by fundamentals

As a player who has a female character main in every fighting game I’ve played except Tekken and SF, I’ve never gotten the whole “waifu” argument thing. It’s a weird argument to bring up when you just don’t like losing to a female character. It just makes you look like an idiot while they’re off to the next match and you’re staring at the lobby screen. Like when Lucky Chloe was revealed for Tekken 7, she became a target for many players insulting her damn near violently…and sorry if you had the misfortune of beating someone online. I, in fact, loved her once I realized the influence from Hatsune Miku (like the girl literally went to her concert in her backstory). Same with Marie Rose and Honoka from Dead or Alive (based off Miku and Megurine Luka as well, fun fact), Menat from SF5, and so on. These male players even try to force ages on the characters, too. Which, of course, added all kinds of other accusations and insults amongst players enjoying using said characters. If they have boobs, they’re hated unless they’re a meta character. Kinda crazy when you compare that to the huge hype for male characters amongst a bunch of supposedly straight men.

It was so funny because I had a joke name that went the longest time before it got reported but I beat the kid with a budget hunter deck, he added me just to say: "Nice name f*****" "Just uninstall and kys" "And stop wasting oxygen" and then immediately blocked me. I was laughing the entire time I was reading his messages, but the thing that really sent me was reading his name which was "JoshieBigMac" and I'm thinking "Dude at least my name is funny. You sound like a morbidly obese 8 year old that eats nothing but McDonald's." I've had toxic interactions with people spamming thanks before but that was the only time I'd ever had someone add me just to talk shit. Like dude this is a virtual card game for Christ's sake and we were in gold or something.

Finally the 3rd episode of "To catch a scrub"

This is probably common knowledge for street fighter players. But being new to SF6 with my cammy, when fighting a guile crouch blocking, you can try walking in and out of their lows. Most guiles want to keep their charge but want to keep you out so they throw out lows. So bait them with your shimmy walk and punish the low normal and you get your in. Or counter hit the normal, whichever works

the overhead is giving him mucho scrub quotes.

Haha I'm starting to wonder if Akuma is a goblin with thumbnails like these.

Holy shit. That first skynet player did the same to me. Dude came at me with the “easy no skill combos”. I play classic. He’s a modern player.

Exactly. I like grapplers, so defense is part of my game due to style. And while I watch the Momochi's, Daigos, Smugs, Diaphones, etc to learn the game (am a visual learner and rarely have time) I have my own unique style. 100% accurate.

Gonna be honest, I will jump once against a Guile to check their AA skills and may try a second time from further to see how well they AA but if I get burned twice I done jumping.

mr citrus is one of my good friends, i love this video

10:02 Xcel making people angry for no reason? Nice lol

Towards the end there. Yeah, I steal tech from other Guiles and I give it when I have it. That's how we all get better at the game and that's why I'm subbed to GuilesGarden, basically any replay done by a high level Guile anywhere in the world where something interesting happens gets posted there and he breaks down exactly what happened and why the Guile chose the option he did. It's the reason I just hit Diamond 1 (Silver 2 during the open beta). Did you know that cr. MP > cr. MP xx H. Flash kick gives a safe jump setup in the corner? Thanks to me someone now does. Could they figure it out without me? Sure. But why do they need to?

I can't deny that losing multiple games in a row will put me on tilt, but I've never been angry enough to message someone after they play me win or lose

"F you, you just got lucky, you arent good" *eats 500 anti airs*

ive always wondered why scrubs think it's somehow better to not look up guides, not watch better players, etc, in order to improve their game. this is an old mentality - people were telling me this back in starcraft broodwar and im sure they were saying it playing chess hundreds of years ago - but like what is going on here my best guess is it's because they dont actually like practicing. that's all i can think of, "i dont practice so it's unfair that others do" somehow. a bit like accusing another player of being "sweaty", which is just a weird ego-protecting way to say that another player practices "too much"

When you say “DSP” you make me feel old as hell LMAO

Lmaooo I verse that Skynet guy pretty often. High level one and doner

the di on the sonic boom is about as much luck as it is a hard read. I do this to guiles all the time too. Most guiles are very sonic boom happy and spam that shit like crazy, completely disregarding the spacing, especially when they have you cornered. They think they can just pin you by spamming that and if you jump they get a free anti-air. Best way to beat any guile is to just inch closer and block/parry booms until their brain turns on auto-pilot and they just keep throwing em, you end up close enough and all of a sudden DI through, full corner carry combo and their brain goes into tilt. If the guile adapts later on they will give up their down charge for flashkick from time to time by doing booms followed by edging slightly backwards to make sure they maintain the spacing to not get DIed. Both are favorable for you as you're edging em to the corner and if they give up their flashkick charge you have a shot at a jump in, although his regular AA buttons are also strong. The angry beast akuma player seems to be your typical pressure character player, he just wants to get in your face and hit buttons that are plus so he can keep hitting em. he doesn't believe in the concept of turns, it should always be his turn xD. He probably also thinks that invincible reversals are cheap because that means he has to bait and block and he doesn't like that, he wants to hit buttons.

Even ignoring the ridiculous claims and blatant transphobia of the ‘no more waifu players’ guy, he seems to have forgotten about a major third category of people who play as female characters: the legendary, the elusive, the fabled-to-not-even-exist… woman in an online game.

The strat to lose and then invite to custom is an age old scrub strat. I remember one time a dude did the same thing to me in DOTA2 and proceeded to talk the most random garbage ever to me. "ur 26? bro wtf u doin playin video games, get a job" that shit was too funny bro

DI to get out of the corner like that is super risky. It worked, but if his opponent did anything else there he would've just died. You could call it a read on the boom timing, or you could call it luck, but luck seems more likely. But all fighting game players know the real tech: roll the dice and then pretend it was a hard read if it works.

When I was climbing through plat I thought like high diamond is where players start to get solid and play properly, but now that I'm there myself I'm like "wow, they just let anyone in here, huh?". Like, there are players you can tell are trying to play footsies, do good pressure, trying to think on defense and in neutral, and then there's the air jordan ryus, kens, and now akumas, the modern menaces doing god knows what(no shade on using modern if you're actually trying to play, just that there's a certain stereotype here that uses modern), and players who've perfected the art of randoming you out, perfectly predicting the exact frame you're gonna walk back out of range after 5 seconds of holding down-back before they do an unsafe sweep, all honed for gaining points with a 1-and-done playstyle, and they're always the saltiest weirdos you'll run into. Eventually they're gonna reach masters, they're gonna be 1500 flat because they never play ranked because "muh points", or they'll gravitate towards the bottom, so it's not really a surprise to find players like that there.

The only reason I can imagine that people watch DSP is that they want to see someone even more stuck in their ego than themselves so they can feel better about their own over inflated ego. I was thinking the waifu guy was completely ridiculous, but then when Dia showed all the cringe Juri names I remembered that sometimes I will not rematch people that have terrible names, just because I don't need the extra psych damage they are trying to inflict by having a troll name. I can admit that it's scrubby though, if you are truly playing to win such things do not matter, you should theoretically just rematch every time, more matches played is more experience on the game, and matchup knowledge is important. It's just that, on the flipside, the one time I went to a Uni tournament, it was a random 2v2 tournament and I got teamed with a guy there called "Boy Molester." I decided then and there that I was done with Uni before I ever really got started. It literally ruined the game for me, and now the only way I'll play that game is if I find a friend that plays another game we both like and they can teach it to me. So even though this doofus is definitely being a scrub and has no point at all, I do think there are some psychological things to think about here beyond, "just ignore it and rematch." Like Dia said before though, when you are on tilt just take a break, that holds true regardless of the reasoning.

So. A fuzzy is a type of mix you can do to take advantage of block frames involved. Say you do a safe jump, which is a jumping attack that they cannot retaliate against safely, and force them to block overhead. You can then go for whatever mix you would like as they're stuck stand-blocking. It's a true 50/50 with no options out of it aside from guess right. A fuzzy in general for fighting game terms is manipulating the game to exist in two states at once briefly. Such as the split moment you're still blocking high and holding down as you do to block low for that time.

Thank you for the reply! I knew about that, but, I wanted to know what it meant when Diaphone is saying to "watch out for the fuzzy" at 11:25. It sounds like he's saying that the Akuma player needs to watch in. In that particular circumstance, I am now sure how a "fuzzy" would apply to this.

@@co81385 Basically, while the frames for the overhead are still out, he could land and go for a low. This lets him essentially simultaneously hit overhead and low at the same time. Very difficult to block as the instant the low hits, and not a frame before, it's overhead still. Fuzzy blocking is how you deal with such as it gives you a little more time to work with. At least, to my own understanding.

In the clip, it shows a replay of the training dummy throwing Akuma, so I thought that it may have been in reference to something defensive. As in, the Akuma player had to be careful with the setup that was being used, because it was at risk of being thrown.
