Nobody does Steve guides like you do, appreciate it. This has been the single most important channel for leveling up my Steve gameplay. Everything, is clear, quick, and concise, not overly convoluted and unorganized.

Thank you for your kind words!

Thank you Soul. If we get CH df+2, Steve is likely S tier. We're eating good!

thank you for summarize this patch for steve

Usually wouldn't say this but this shi got me in the crib leaping up and down with joy

This is the definition of quality of life buffs. So good

Amazing new tools for us Steve players, gives more mix-up potential and more safety in certain scenarios 🥊💪

Us Steve mains are finally eating good

you are the goat

I feel like the changes make the character less Steve-like, but I fw them. The mindgames with the LNH transitions sound like fun.

how is this steve-less lil bro, they're just fixing and buffing exactly what should have been in the first place. LH was just much more risk and than rewards at times and he lacked better punish than most chars.

Fucking finally. Felt like Steve was so fucking slow. Thank goodness.

Any tips to use CH df2 without the buff? I haven't use from thr begining of T8

@soulxcv

Ай бұрын

You can use it as it is how you would in T7: a chunky advancing 16f mid to deter your opponents from crouching your B1 a lot. Truth be told I haven't been using it a lot too in T8. Rocket launcher has better properties in all ways possible, and flk2 is my delayed mid CH button now.

Steve is buff and he got the stuff!

Don't forget that you can do CH DF2 into SONIC FANG if you have the duck cancel execution👍🏻

I said in the previous vid that I was truly praying for LH 1 to be a counter hit launch, but maybe that’s too greedy, and then as a heat engaged idk how that would work. But we eating fellow boxers. I can’t wait to see the new techs/combos to spend months practicing them instead of ranked😩

I could but honestly there are so many changes coming in this early in the game, so combos are useable for maybe a few months before becoming obsolete. Also tbh I suck at combo routes, and my in my vids I recycle the same 2-3 routes in all scenarios 🤣

nice. this really adding massive depth in his game plan, now LH is not kinda useless anymore. welcome to TK8 steve

@soulxcv

Ай бұрын

As a purely mixup tool, I think LH is VERY strong now. It cannot be beaten by power crush anymore. They have to respect the mix (on hit) or get blown up

It’s true that it will leave you at -9 but you have two parry options after if you have a good read of the opponent. Such as b+3, 2 or 1. If they decide to use a high

These QoL buffs are so welcomed, I feel like the new LNH cancels indirectly buffs B1, DF2, B2 for more setup options; maybe even baiting into manual LNH 2! Though 16f FC DF2 feels so criminal and unreal, but I'll absolutely take the fast launcher change haha; I bet with great spacing it'll be really nice against whiffed mids too!

@soulxcv

For sure! I'm gonna be spamming the fcdf2 a lot more now, the added speed is gonna help with whiffs, and Steve is mostly in crouch anyway due to duck-ins

Flk2 does the job but setting it up is the problematic part

Years of muscle memory does that to you! Partly I enjoy having limited punishers because my monke brain can't memorize all the frame data on block.

They will give him every buff but not a single stand launcher lol .. Its heartbreaking when your opponent is vulnerable and you can't launch him straight 😭

All this buff is great!…but honestly I want only one buff more…give me df2 ch launcher with shiro and steve is PERFECT for me.

you forgot to mention that fc df2 is now his best whiff punish. if the hitbox is extended it has solid range and can be performed instantly from standing if you manual flk into crouch cancel. i labbed yesterday and it’s actually better than df2 right now because nobody knows that this is -15 hahaha use it until it’s common knowledge

he got a super simple new combo route that deals the most dmg out of all the simple no micro dash combos you can do launcher uf 2 (example) into 311. b12b. f22. into ender it’s 66 dmg but after 312 ender lnh2 won’t connect it deals 1 dmg less than 311 micro dash df121 f22 what makes this combo good is that the travel distance isn’t so long so it’s a short ranged option.
