well this night sure was completely disheartening. 3 days after the game's release, everyone is doing palm breaker loops, 100 hit combos with dante, fly/unfly ultron and dormammu combos, and im sitting here with magic series Hulk... my only wins were against people that must have just bought the game and apparently cant even DO a magic series, the rest I was just completely destroyed. And clearly my lab time is doing nothing for me so I dont know what to do, I really wanted to try with this one (hell I never even went in a training mode before in a fighting game), I thought the skill gap between ranks would be bigger and you would have some time facing people around your level, but im already fighting against what seem like LiJoe or Fchamp at rank 13.
This is all on me btw, dont take this as me bashing the game, far from it. But the truth is, right now I dont feel like playing anymore. I guess I'm one of those guys we joke about on streams that get blown up and we go "you just made that guy uninstall the game".
I really dont know why I keep buying fighting games tbh. At least I supported it I guess /shrug.
Just keep playing, heck Im still struggling with moving on from MvC3s control scheme. Im not really doing much but magic series and quick tag extensions into hypers. Im missing out on some meter gain, but I still do comparable damage to those doing minute long combos. As long as my fundamentals are strong I still come out with the win, stick with getting those hits in and do your best not to get hit back. Get to the complicated combos when it makes sense for you, it eventually works itself out in the lab.
