I wanna be able to play ~for realsies~ in Ranked but everybody is still kind of new and the most anybody I'm matched up against knows how to do is maybe input their womboest combo over and over. So every match I just end up playing dirty by zoning dudes out and ultimately punishing them for their own boredom when they finally dive in. It's me, I'm everything you hate about online competitive gaming.

Na, I know I'm bad and avoid online with anyone I don't know

For some reason I was kicked from Goon Squad, despite actively contributing weekly. I also lost a shitton of levels for like 5 characters since i hopped online, when they were all at lvl 20 last night. This morning is kinda lovely so far.

This is probably a bug that will resolve itself if you restart your PS4.

This Batman AI build: 20 rushdown 10 combos 30 counters, has supposedly gotten a player to 233 wins in Endless tower. Trying it out right now to see how my AI Batman does.

This loving wrecks, enemies are lucky to get 1 shot in per round.

I got 40 wins in Endless with this, so i'm trying to figure out what stats I want to focus on with this build. Having the correct gear equipped is something I still don't understand.

"Correct gear" = "most awesome-looking gear"

In Batman's case that's undeniably the Animated Series helmet he gets.

After playing with such cool skins as Reverse Flash and Jay Garrick, I wish every character had one classic skin that wasn't affected by gear. Some of the head gear I get for the Flash looks really stupid.

I got over 50 with pretty bad gear. Only 3 or 4 were close. Exact stats matter less when a comp is playing, because they tend to have a balanced attack. Your level is 80-90% of the stat block anyway,so your best play may be to attach XP mods if you are powerleveling.

But I want to understand how some players are getting over 230+ wins with some of these AI builds.

The LEGO Batman Movie actually does have a Hardybane impression.

I personally want a mix of both - Hardy's hilarious tones but peppered with Spanish.

The first Injustice had many night spent playing with my fiancée, her brother and his girlfriend. His favourite character in the first game was Deathstroke, so you can see where this is going. Played against him for the first time last night and he has already resumed his love of being cheap as gently caress. Best strategy to deal with zoners? Specifically Deadshot and Captain Cold.

You can use meter to roll in close (Dash + MB) and dodge projectiles.

I always seem to MB by accident. Am I right in assuming it is sometimes more effective to use MB moves than hold on for a super? Super moves seem easier to block in this game.

Yes! In most cases, especially the better you get, supers are probably the least efficient way to spend your meter. If you are able to consistently pull off a juggle combo, spending a bar for an armored F3 (forward + 3) attack to launch them will give you more damage than a super.

When fighting Deadshot or other zoners, some characters are better at getting up close. Catwoman's dash move, especially when you spend meter, should do well. Supergirl's teleport, too, I think.

Otherwise you just have to keep crouching (this will duck high projectiles and block low ones) while slowly inching forward

It doesn't help that most are really easy to block, or worse yet in some cases, hard to hit in the first place.

It's almost always a bad idea to save meter for a super. Most are easily dodged and do around the same damage as any character's BnB combos while feeding meter to your opponent in return. Meter burning abilities and/or movement is what makes you unpredictable. You can win a lot of games just by MBing special moves that change the hit angle or escaping a combo against a scrub like me who can't reliably execute them 100% of the time.

Yeah, this week he's only available on season pass/kombat pack. Next week he will be available for purchase on his own.

As for the price, likely 6 bucks like Darkseid.
