Light hearted taunting is tame as poo poo for the fighting game community anyways. This is the same community filled with openly racist and sexist players who also bully kids that win Smash Brother tournaments.

Ya I'm just pointing out where your goal is to basically make the game as unfun as possible for your opponent it's not unlikely that a few words of discouragement are going to eek out in one form or another. Unless that game is sitting around drunk mashing buttons with your best pals, but seriously, even then expect some poo poo to fly.

The FGC is good. You're all in a thread about a game that wouldn't even be half as potentially good as it is if it wasn't for the FGC.

I am happy that Supes, WW, and Swamp thing seem to be all in the tied for lowest health category, as low health generally in the history of fighting games tends to mean better character as they will have more options to compensate for the health.

Well it would be pretty terrible and very lolworthy of NRS didn't do this to balance them.

QTEs are gone. In place are moments where you get a limited time to decide between two characters before a particular fight.

He kicks you into a dimensional hole and you fly into hate space for some reason before your dude gets punched by I guess parademons. One tackles you and pushes you out back into real space and then the two of you get a proton cannon to the face.

Tried to avoid the hype, but for honor s2 was real underwhelming so here I am. The OP is hella barebones, is there a main site most people use to look up strings and juggles for dudes? This is the first NRE title I've played since like UMK3.

I recommend https://testyourmight.com

Click on the character you're interested in and check the various combo or general discussion threads on them.

Should also note that Captain Cold's gun is non lethal unless he wants it to be. When he originally made the gun it's purpose was to slow the flash and hold people in temporary suspended animation. The ice was an unintended side effect. As a result it is actually harmless freezing.

Cold also interestingly enough is probably the most powerful Ice villain as his gun can manipulate absolute zero. The temperature were molecules stop moving. He can also create invisible wide beams with his gun that auto freeze anything that touches them. And normally has a field of it around himself when he gets into a fight. The cold field and wide beam does not have quite the same effect on Flash but it does slow him down. Which Cold gives as the reason why he can tag him reliably.

Why don't they, you know, take away his gun?

Does he just keep making new ones?

Why doesn't anyone use his gun against him and put him in a harmless icecube and lock it in isolated cold storage?
