This version of the character is more effective than the one with the card powers. :v:

I think both versions of Shaoran's AI go from insanely passive to super aggressive on a whim. See that massive upset match where a legit Melty Blood suddenly got destroyed because Shaoran decided to attack for once.

I love seeing new people find saltybet, then learn the same hard lessons everyone else did. They'll learn and take the salt of those who haven't learned the lessons and the circle of salt continues.

You know, I'm still split on thinking whether weeding out trashy characters so that "real" matches happen a lot more often is a good idea or not. There is the appeal of seeing EVO-like matches like the one with Ryu and Black Adam a few days ago more than we usually get, but I guess that stuff being so rare is part of what makes them so awesome when they finally happen.

His AI is actually decent for a tiny DBZ, Big Ginyu just never stops attacking.

So apparently I'm not the only one who gets these weird second long pauses in the 480p stream? Is this just a SaltyBet thing or what?

Not for me it ain't :( It's perfect until the match starts and then I get weird stutters and pauses.

480p+ works great for me, I believe he has the stream run at 60fps which might be the cause of your issues at 480p?

It's been like that all day, and Twitch normally works a LOT better for me. I can watch 720p or even 1080p on most streams.

Suddenly seemed to fix itself now though!

EDIT: holy poo poo this 60FPS is nice!

Yeah, it's good for pacing to have some poo poo characters. I wouldn't mind seeing some of the worst of the worst removed, particularly since they can yield boring-as-poo poo timer scam matches when they get pitted against each other. But you need plenty of average Joes in there so the broken-tier characters don't lose their luster.

I feel like the hyper inconsistent DBZ characters (and others like them) with trashbag AI and ten million health/OHKO supers also serve a function in the system, which is causing upsets and generally introducing insecurity and chaos. Broken Leonardo was like this; he just randomly flies off ensuring a time scam, but it can easily lead to giant upsets both for and against him if he does it early in a match.

It helps keep money moving around and makes stats less than perfectly reliable; the more balanced a character's stats and the more predictable their AI (even if it's predictably good), the safer the bets are.

Nintendo is also streaming their big international Pokemon tournament on Twitch, the first time they've done anything of the sort. No clue how much it'll draw in but I could see it making things worse on top of the International and Saltybet.

EDIT: Should note that this is later tonight and shouldn't be causing problems NOW.
