Kusoru has never seen the Time Out animation for his character. Either way, that match is ending with someone dead.

I think the reason people suggest a patient playstyle is that this wild playstyle, at the new or intermediate level, is about flipping coins and big haymakers. Without an understanding of the strategy (particularly the part where the high level player jab checked or instilled some other fear), all those players are emulating is the move, not the reasons for using it. To be effectively wild, it has to overwhelm your opponent. That means it either has to be a knowledge check, or, more likely, carry a lot of risk. It's only when you conceal that risk with proper pressure that it actually becomes an effective strategy.

It's actually really easy, just wait and punish, do frametraps in your blockstring because they will mash, let them do their blockstring and wait until it's your turn while not trying to do anything fancy, just fundamentals.

I think an important observation is that in both examples the players playing frantic are having the time of their lives. Kusoru is sitting in grand finals laughing it up meanwhile Steve is so hyper tense and focused he doesn't even realize he's fallen of his chair. I think too many people get obsessed with "the right way to play." Just play some dumb shit if that's what you enjoy.

This situation reminds me of this one guy at a SF4 tournament who won a set almost exclusively using Tiger Uppercut. The commentator was having an aneurysm about how "improper" and "bad" this player was. Classic.

Funny that you bring up this match, showed this to my friend when they asked where most of my Sol shenanigans came from. I used to watch Kusoru stuff WAY back in the day, like OG accent core days on PS2 and arcade, his whole playstyle is just screw it, go nuts and as this shows, you can make it to high level play doing that kind of stuff, JUST because people don't expect the mid screen riot stamp, or random ground vipers. A comment i seen on that video sums it up perfectly, "he play's so unsafe, he becomes safe"

kusoru is the player commentators will talk about like "he can't keep getting away with this stuff" and he's out there and he just doesn't stop swinging. playing the game efficiently is fine, especially if you play to win. but that doesn't mean you can't be outplayed by someone who doesn't play the game as "cleanly" as you do you gotta respect the players who seem to throw all caution to the wind cuz those guys are gonna put on a show and it will be a sight to behold

Kusoru is like playing AI on "random variable" difficulty.

This is peak Sol. When i think about how the character SHOULD be played, this is what appears in my mind.

Those "crazy" playstyles are normally so extraordinarily wack to me because, like Sajam said, it seems like I'm the only person who gives a fuck about what's going on while the other person is just partying. Though that might be the case, the point about opponents presenting spooky options and capitalizing on the pressure that creates is BIG. Understanding that this is what your opponent is doing (consciously or unconsciously) is how you blow up this playstyle and force the other guy to consider the risk of their options or risk getting walled out and losing.

Seems like good examples of Spontaneity! People who have really mastered the art of being spontaneous with their choices and are comfortable just coming up with whatever happens to work at that moment. It's a fun way to play when you really get into that "zone" where all your moves just come from instinct and experience, no deeper planning. Hard to pull off consistently tho haha

Potemkin 6HS goes brrrr

I imagine he would be really good at platform fighters. As a melee player, to me it looks like he's not so much worried about the startup of moves or the damage they do, he seems much more concerned with where his moves will send the opponent.

Any time I'm struggling with something in Gear I always come back to this video and pray to Kusoru to lend me his strength so that I may embody the true spirit of Sol as he does.

I'm a "Steve H" kind of player. (Or at least I try to be. I'm not that good.) And the people I have the most trouble playing are the ones I can't read. It's horrible to feel like you don't know what to look for. It's like... the whole gameplan falls apart. When I fight other "clean" players, even when I lose, I don't feel as bad because it's easier for me to tell why I lost and what happened. When I lose to a player that has an erratic playstyle that I can't read, I'm always left like... "What just happened? What could I have done differently?" Sometimes watching the replay helps, and sometimes it doesn't.

Kusoru managed to tame all the world's wild, single-player-on-easy-mode masher spirit energy and utilize it in tourneys; in mash we trust. ♥️

The thing i learned from this video is "the hardest you unga, the best you bunga"

you've just landed a -1 move on your opponent's guard. you can take the blue pill, let your opponent take their turn back, and block until you can return to neutral. or, you can take the red pill, and mash dp on their plus frames

I don't play fighting games myself, could never get the hang of them, but I've enjoyed FGC content for years now. Never understood why varied playstyles are so frowned upon in the community. There's an old saying in boxing that "Styles make fights", meaning that two great boxers with completely contrast styles getting in the ring together is what makes the sport exciting. For example, Mayweather fighting someone with the exact same defensive style as him would put everyone watching to sleep because hardly any punches would be thrown or landed by either fighter. I'm a fan of Punk because of his grounded, footsie based style. But I also enjoy Tokido, Itabashi Zangief, and others with unorthodox/random styles. Another comparison would be GO1 and SonicFox in DBFZ. That rivalry was as good as it was because of their opposing styles. I wouldn't watch tournaments if every player played the same cookie cutter style. Wouldn't be fun to watch.

I'm rewatching this for the hundredth time as a BB player, and I'm thinking... why don't I use RC in frame traps? Like... I know it could be a huge waste of meter... but why not? That's something I can't be punished for and can net me an easy 4-5k... but I don't do it because I save that meter to protect my DPs... like a COWARD. The man is a god.

Kusoru’s a true American hero :’^)

These players embody the "do different things often" mantra which is probably the most important advice for fighting games

I love this entire video so much. I've rewatched it so many times at this point

I remember watching that SteveH Kusoru match WAAAAYYY back when my brother first introduced me to GG, and I still remember being weirded out by the bias of the commentary booth XD. ''Let's go STEVEH'', ''WHO DOES THAT''. Don't knock it if it works!

I love the super chaotic playstyles that are actually super strong, they are the most fun to watch.

I remember the UNIST champ Clearlamp once described fighting Drunk Suika as "like rolling the gacha"

Changing from methodical to full monke at will has given me a ton of victories with Sol in +R, so satisfying

It’s kinda funny but I think mango in the melee scene is very much like this (though he does have solid play too). And the community worships him for it. Cause he’s adding option to the game rather than limiting options to only the “best” ideas.

I think another example of the slow methodical vs someone rushing down like crazy is fuudo birdie v tokido akuma at NCR. also tokido parries birdies overhead kick just in neutral in that set and its nuts

KojiKOG is a fucking baller, man. That dude was so damn hype to watch in SF4... He shaped a lot of how I play T. Hawk

Great video! What's crazy is that Koji KOG played with really good and patient footsies with T.Hawk in SF4 before the first version of Ultra. So seeing his combination of brute force + conditioning from before is lethal as you were stating.

I don't understand why rushdown playstyles are considered stupid or "unga-bunga." Maybe it's because I mostly play melee where movement is more emphasised than traditional fighters, but I always see outmanoeuvring as being synonymous with outplaying, and therefore is the clever option -- whether you outmanoeuvre them by going forwards or by going backwards.

@axis8396

People generally equate being able to articulate exactly why an option is good or why you did something with good play. If you think the opponent is terrified of you because you have a good read on their timings so you just unga bunga run them from corner to corner and then you dp their 2A like how can you explain that y'know. Peach is a good Smash example since a majority of her longer punishes require tech reads into DI mixups but she has to commit harder than Falcon because she doesn't have great mobility, you kinda just pick what you think will work and if it does your opponent is probably dead. I might not be able to explain every little detail later but in the moment I did it it seemed like a good idea. Sometimes I just do something "stupid" because I know it'll work or it's something my opponent doesn't like and then don't explain it to annoy the Brain player I'm playing against. A lot of Snake stuff in PM is basically just "it just works, you can sdi super hard to make it a 50-50 but other than that you're prolly dead" which isn't wrong if a bit oversimplified

Because theres different types of rushdown, and some people are just used to seeing tokido go on sf4 set play offense and are like damn thats good rushdown. But its very clean and methodical. Meanwhile they havent felt the absolute madness of a kof or mvc scramble. Being hammered by triangle jumps at mach 5 or chin feigning an overhead into a low, and throwing you into a 50percent reset, crossing you up and doing the exact same thing again. Theres an over reliance on methodology. Long range is pokes and zoning, mid is footsies and close up is a guess thats effectively Throw, block uppercut, normal being, the odds slightly skewed on offense or defense. Meanwhile a player like poongko will just jump all of the sudden and if youre unfortunate enough to be poking at that time your either suddenly in a massive meaty situation or getting hit. A fireball is just a very favorable guess with a low reward against almost any character with a jump for example. You can absolutely treat a fighting game like its gambling to some degree of success, all you need is to do is know your options.

A lot of your information and what you talk about is really good but the thing I love the most is the short concise line or two that condenses everything.

The thing is, it really depends on your character and your whether or not this playstyle will actually work out. I highly doubt that Kusoru would enjoy the same level of success if he was on a character without Sol tools for just going ham. That is not meant as an insult to Kusoru but more of a reminder that you should match your playstyle to the tools of your character, especially if your ccharacter is very specialized. Let's take Hazama from Blazblue as an example. His normal are mostly very short ranged and he uses these chains to move around and get in on people. Playing a midranged based clean footsie game as this character is simply asinine and so you shouldnt do it.

Gotta say tho, I legit don't know whether that is an actual human playing that paul or a legitimate orangutan.
