Making them block isn't just good for mixup potential, it also lets you hold them still so you can set up slow fireballs (or more glyphs).

Having glyphs is also pretty valuable when you activate his trait since in trait the glyphs act like traps and can be used in combos or as kind of a defensive carpet
Oh I forgot trait changed the properties of df3. I think I knew that at one point but it's been a while since I watched 16 bit's breakdown of Fate. Thanks, I'll mess with that too.

No Decepticon in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly.
So I'm stuck in Amazon limbo too. Hopefully getting my poo poo tomorrow, but I have to know. Is Sinestro one of GL's premium skins?

There Diomedes aimed and stabbed, he gouged him down
his glistening flesh and wrenched the spear back out
and the brazen god of war let loose a shriek, roaring,
thundering loud as nine, ten thousand combat soldiers
shriek with Ares' fury when massive armies clash.

Some of the busier cutscenes chugged a little, but the game itself runs pretty smooth for me.

Oh yeah, the game is freaking flawless so far. And the cutscenes aren't having framerate issues. It's more like the animation and camera movement is just, somehow kinda like "stop and starty". It's subtle, but noticeable.


Also: can someone explain CLASHING better to me than the tutorial did? I'm not wrapping my head around it. :)

If you do forward and mb while getting combo'd you'll initiate a clash and each side "bets" however much of their meter they have. You can either bet part of your meter or you can go all in. You can also just wait it out and bet nothing, but of course you're guaranteed to lose in that case. If the defender (the one who initiated the clash) bets more, they stop the attack and regain some health. If the attacker bets more, they damage the defender. The higher the winner's bet compared to the loser's, the stronger the effect. You can only initiate a clash on your second bar of health.

Ah, ok, so the reason I can only bet Square (1 bar) has just been coincidence with the fact that I've burned my meter before etc...

So the logic is just: How much do you want to use, but you could play it safe and use it all but you'd burn your whole meter, etc...

Yes, just so. You can only bet however many charges you've filled (that are flashing). You can also choose to bet nothing by waiting out the clock, losing the clash but keeping all your meter.

I made a series of bad investments. Tarantula farm. The bottom fell out of the market.

This is babby's first fighting game for me and I'm working through the tutorial, trying to get used to the tight timing compared to games I'm used to. Really struggling trying to hit Superman with a wake-up slide after being knocked down. It says <- -> X (lol I don't know notation) but the window seems so tiny. Is there a trick or do I just need to make my fingers go More Fastly?

if he gets nerfed for anything it would probably be for the speed at which he can shoot bullets, which is probably the fastest normal projectile in the game. I haven't fought deadshot in the game besides once in story mode so I can't tell yet. His combos rely on corner game stuff so we should wait and see if meter rolls are enough to get in on him regularly.

I'm loving how diverse the gear is so far. I made a cartoon-mask Bane, a Red Sox Joker with lovely pants and ballcap, and a Terminator Deadshot with epic gauntlets and this sick fucken robot head. I hope NRS continues to make and put out gear and shaders all year.

Winning a clash does the following:
Winning by 1 either deals 15% damage or heals 15% health
Winning by 2 is 25%
Winning by 3 is 30%
Winning by 4 is 33%

The most efficient way to clash is to always try to win by 1. Typically you'll only see defenders try to win by 2, and winning by 3 or 4 is a waste of meter.

Input the buttons while you're still on the ground, and let dial-a-kombo do the work for you! In NRS games you can input buttons ahead of the time they'd actually go in to effect and the game is 'smart' enough to figure out your intention.

If you're having issues turn release check in your controller settings off.

It's a little tricky; the tutorial suggests that you do the input immediately after hitting the ground, but that's wrong - you want to wait about a half second and do it as you're rising to your feet.

So, nerf Deadshot for the thing he's know for? Might as well nerf Darkseid's omega beams if they do that.

I played a fight where I used DS's super and the opponent jumped over it, sending it off screen. I hit back on my pad and the beam came back from off screen and smacked the opponent in the back. It's a good thing it won the match because I was too busy laughing to continue.
