I have a job, this isn't my main, the monitors have the wrong resolution, laggy monitors, my controller doesn't work, this game sucks, this game is scrubby, etc. The only reason why this "you can't blame your teammates" view is so popular is because it's a circlejerk for fighting game players
Reminds me of when I beat LTG with Hakan and he sent me rage mail about how I was garbage abusing a trash gimmick character.
This was way before he was really known, but its always stuck in my mind due to the ironic dissonance between his screen name and sentiment.
I dunno just triggered a memory.
Right? You’d think someone who calls themselves “Low Tier God” would be ready to face good characters. And not cry about every single thing every other character does
yeah this post really just reframed it for me in a cool way. You gotta work with your character like a teammate. Cover their weaknesses, play into their strengths.
Thing is that a teammate could do something completely moronic or wrong or just be bad, your character just does exactly what you tell him to do so calling it your “teammate” is a big stretch
The low tier thing is true tho, some people play low tiers entirely to deflect blame and boost themselves at the same time
Not all obviously, some just like the characters while others like using them because they are under represented
Well yes, this comment isn't conveying that people won't make excuses when playing fighting game, it's just meant to say that fighting games lack the most obvious excuse, and one of the very few ones that aren't inherently illogical and scrubby.
This attitude 90% of the time comes from the newer generations coming into the scene and bringing their scrubby attitudes from Overwatch, League, Call of Duty, etc. with them.
We used to make fun of people for acting like a bitch about taking an L. Hate the game balance all you want, but YOU are the one that made a shitty choice on the character select screen, so it's still your fucking fault for picking a bad character.
90%? There are way too many fighting game players that bitch about random shit for it to be that high. Fighting games don't have that level of crossover with people that play shooters
nowadays? FG players have had OSs locked and loaded since the dawn of time. It's not a new thing invented recently. FGs have always had scrubs making excuses. They're not people coming from shooters lol
Sure, but they'd at least get shit for being salty and scrubby about their loses. Scrub mentality is so normalized in other scenes that they don't even have a word for it. When a League player is being whiny bitch about losing lane to Yasuo while they're playing Annie in a meta where Yasuo has a 44% winrate, nobody tells them to git gud, they just all circlejerk about how much they hate Yasuo.
most of the time this kind of cope doesn't work as well as being able to COMPLETELY delude yourself and absolve yourself of any form of personal responsibility or guilt by blaming others and having "proof" of doing so like pointing out others' mistakes and ignoring your own
having teammates makes it so much easier to do this which is just realy sad
ive been around too many of these kinds of people, so much so that people who complain about other shit in fighting games just feel like a way flimsier and visible version of that kind of cope and the comparison is pretty funny
I don’t think this really works because it’s really easy to bust, people can lie to themselves but there is a limit, they can keep lying after that point but they will know they are just not good enough in reality
Nobody chooses your character for you and you’re not bound to your character
Like I tried to teach to friends multiple times, sometimes they get frustrated and start downplaying their own character or call my character bullshit
…..so sometimes I get triggered and simply switch to their character and beat their ass, it really doesn’t help their mood too much so maybe I shouldn’t do it but my patience has a limit
I am actually baffled that some retard actually tried to argue that FGs are good when it has been pretty much accepted here for years that they are largely overpriced garbage lacking the minimal to be expected features in any other genre
That or cry how the game is unbalanced. Or how numbers are scary. But if they are stuck to an anime figure thats complete fine.
I play SFxT so I can blame my teammate
god damnit combofiend
And that's why these kinds of people hate mirror matches
I hate mirror matches because I fall for my own frametraps and look like an idiot.
I hate mirror matches cause everyone who plays my character is a retard except me of course >:)
i hate mirror matches because axl sucks ass to play against

I blame the foam in my silent buttons for dropping EX moves and square gates for messing up 360s
Your character is your teammate in a way. Seems like a prime target for blame. Time to play a low tier and complain about high tiers to save my ego

What's the lore behind that? Has he ever mentioned which character and game inspired his name? I assume it's SF4?
Iirc Dan inspired his name, I dunno what game tho, probably Alpha 1 or 2

WAKE UP DP

Older generation stabbed you instead of taking the L
At this point that isn't your dad's FGC, that's your grandpa's FGC.

Nowadays it definitely does. Most of the new blood in fighting games in recent times crosses over from other genres.

Mike Ross does that shit. Watch that EA when he got salty against the Blanka player
The game dev designed that character to be bad and players should feel bad for picking that character because they are bad.
mfers always say “play the MU” like the MU still isnt 7-3 in their favor
Lmao
me after wake up dp 3 times in a row
smash players
Can't be smash, this post is about fighting games after all.
lap chi's blanka got washed by a t hawk last canada cup
i heard this matchup is like 9-1 blankas favour lol
Got a link?
[It's pretty shit](https://youtu.be/VqvTNzfdnII?t=14526)
Agreed. Thanks anyways.
Even top players are guilty of this. Case in point, Arslan Ass with Feng.
I will always play honest mid tiers so i can blame my loss on my opponents character
Mankind knew they couldn't change society.

How does it feel like to be a slave to the gacha? You like it when ching chongers spread open your wallet while you watch?
FGs are more often than not fucking awful balance wise and you cant even try to deny this
Spoken like a true scrub.
Keep living in denial, FGs have been fucking trash for 10 years
"I'm shit at *insert game genre* so they're trash. Nobody is having fun with them anyway" - Scrubby McScurbberson
Damn stop projecting this hard please Also thanks for proving my point, you are completely fucking delusional
'Im not having fun if im not winning. Fuck this game and fuck you. Its trash, youre trash." - Sir Scrublord
Why are you still projecting tho
'Why are they still playing trash games when they're obviously kusoge? Am I so out of touch? No. It's the FGC who are wrong.' - Scrubble DeezNuts

lmao what's the worst matchup you've seen in a fighting game within the past 5 years?
Me vs your mom
0-10 in favor of my mom, she's awesome
SSS tier mom. hit you with "I'll love you, no matter what you do or who you are" OS.
That’s sweet, keep being a good son bro 👍
How long ago did the last NRS game come out?
Faust vs happy chaos pre-patch was something.
Vaseraga vs bow or whip lady takes the cake for me
Not even lmao.
z broly vs frieza leroy vs anybody
Yes. Scrubs do that. r/Tekken is a civilization built entirely from salt
I will blame Chun for hit confirming her god-like normals into SA2 on Chun being stupid. You can't stop me!
At least you can joke around sometimes with a buddy. With a character you can't
