There seems to be another easy platinum multiverse yet again on PS4 right now. Probably another later on XBox one as well. I believe they're doing a weekend of this multiple times.

He had a baseball bat, and I was tied to a chair. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do.
Thanks to people mentioning you can get the AI to fight for you. I don't usually mind a bit of grinding, but so many characters to level to 20 wasn't exactly something I was looking forward to.

I think someone said earlier that you only need to get one character to 20, after that you can use tokens to boost characters you don't want to grind as much.

you need to use source crystals, aka money

also source crystals are best saved to buy skins

Yeah it's a great way to level and get gear while you're still picking up characters. I like putting dudes in endless in the background and just hitting A while I do chores or work

Breathe.

Buying a character to 20 is ridiculously expensive, so if I really want to grind a character out I've been using the method posted upthread of doing a two-player match with nobody else playing. it's boring, but you can just treat it like a practice room and work on hitting combos.

You don't get loot but it's really really fast compared to AIing.

No one man should have all that Psycho-Power.

Only 1 deadshot in top 16 so no yall, deadshot was not ever broken.

Sonic fox is the one deadshot, and for the most part hes playing him hyper aggressively considering the character archetype.

And that's why 3/5 is the best. He just had to make that adjustment to hitting the pounces and turned the whole thing around.

Tekken master is one of the few people who can routinely hand sonic fox losses. First two games he was just bamboozled almost nobody knows anything about cheetah and just got bulldozed. But that is the benefit of the 3/5 match setting as the first two games were effectively time for him to learn and understand what was going on. That's why in the later games you saw him doing full screen breath attack to preemptively stop the cheetah full screen jumps.

Jury still out. He is one of the weirdest characters to use and his playstyle is nothing like anything that has previously existed in nrs games. It will take a long time before someone reaches his full potential I think.

She has only one wakeup (kiss) and no AA at all. Not even her uppercut will beat or trade with any jumps. So as long as you don't just get shoved into a corner and murdered she's fine.

Hilariously crushes online deadshots though.

Aquaman is NRS Ryu effectively. Zero gimmicks, you win just by playing the game "right", making the right calls, spacing effectively, etc.

In competitive everyone takes pretty much the same % damage, because defense values are different.
