0:00 that wald combo fucking sucks

Something I also think that helps: just watching other people play. Very often I see shit other players do that i simply wouldn't have thought about. I literally learned footsies like a decade ago just from watching a guy beating everyone's ass in a lobby I joined. I've learned combos from watching other players do them and then started trying to copy them. It all really helps.

This is such a great video. Learning UNI now after being intimidated for so long.

"That's a lot of endlag." Ah you started in smash too i see lol

Gonna be honest, i kinda hate combo trials for the sake of learning. Maybe I'll try like the beginner to intermediate stuff just to learn what the character wants, but from there i just look up combos online or from comp matches. I dunno i kinda prefer learning directly from example rather then learning to play ddr. If anything i just see harder combo trials as a way to flex.

also just picked up uni2, your frog is an 11/10 when most talking heads are a 5/10 at most

Picking one of the technical characters in the roster, imo, you’ve convinced me not to think about the technicalities and do more of the simple stuff. Love the chill vibes you have with you and your frog png that always looks like it has its hand on its cheek when it’s not pressing any of the attacking buttons. Thank you random frog person and welcome to uni2

21:16 Bro what does this even mean 😭😭

Always nice to see new folks getting into uni. It's a wonderful game (even if a bit jank but tbh what fighting game ISNT jank in some way, right? Haha) Best of luck on your journey learning Yuzu too! The chill and healthy outlook towards learning is definitely sub worthy too so take my +1 , funny CZcams frog person :D

*learned fighting games my self and my mantra to play anything and everything as long as i can beat people up since 1999 i loved games that made me*

This is actually really good advice! I just got into the game and I’m having a blast playing it

I love Yuzuriha she's so cool

Been wanting to get into this game more especially after evo ill take your advice to heart and use it tonight

"I don't know what you're doing, but it looks sick though." Exactly how I feel about Uni2 as a beginner. I just sit with an agape mouth as my opponent does a 65 hit combo that I'm sure is impossible to execute.

Commenting to appease the youtube beings that be

11:02 this is fucking hilarious

how difficult has it been to find matches in this game outside of discord

I vibe with the frog png and your mentality is chill asf. That's a sub from me 👍🏾

I’d say I’m decent at the fighting games I play, but I wanted to watch this video to get a perspective of how somebody else learns the games they play. Thank you for the video frog man :]

Bought this gane a bit ago because yuzu looks so damn cool, tutorial scared me off. gonna try it again. Thanks for inspiring me to!

*me who has been playing the game 2 years straight * oh i should try that

I hope you try Dual Souls next. The only thing you need to know is that is Turkish Guilty Gear

Yaaaaay more uni 2 content!!!!

Having a combo you can do everytime is probably the most important part of learning a FG because it frees your mental stack during matches and training. Suddenly you're not dropping combos and spending 90% pf your time in combo trials, but actually learning the game and playing decent matches.

Thanks for the advice random frog man

"yeah, i think im done" LMFAOO REAL ASF

Pretty cool frog man

That's impossible, I've tried lol

well also, combos didnt seem intentional back then. Thats partly why older fighting games were harder. what i mean is, like every hit pushes characters back, the timing needed inbetween inputs or else nothing comes out, and a lot of attacks seeming to slip through opponents. Combos dont seem intentional or well thought out in old fighting games. but this also makes combo possibilities available that would never be possible in modern fighting games with their structured and basically preplanned combos how the heck was that ed a diamond player. bro how did you get diamond?? the meaning of the ranks definitely diminished since last year. those diamond players were playing like what gold players were last year, in this vid. pretty crazy to see lol

Because of the 4:3 ratio is actually a big change for fighters

Fighting games were *somewhat* harder, but the difference is not as big as people seem to think. The reality is just like you said, fighting games used to be built purely around swindling you of as many sets of 50¢ as possible in an arcade setting where other people were waiting their turn to play, so tutorials and training modes just simply didn't make sense to include. Now that home console sales are taking over, and high-speed internet is spreading around the globe, the focus has shifted to helping the player learn, and information is proliferating between players as well. Plus, very few people ever even *approach* the ceiling of skill possible in these games. Most just mistakenly think they do and lack the imagination or perceptiveness to see where further improvement could be had.

Fighting games are still hard af. Just bought my first fighting game SF6. Man i am kicking ass with modern controls but CLASSIC controls are disguisting to learn. With modern i can beat average classic player but skilled mfkers deal half hp with one combo while i have perma 20% damage reduction and perma losing drive gauge for combos. Cant beat good classic players.

Love that little froggo. He’s cute

Really good video ! I've been playing Street Fighter 6 and Tekken 8 and man, everything about these games rule ! Keep up the good work !

I wouldn't say fighting games got easier overall. They are just easier to get into

He should be nerfed a bit in my opinion

I got a broken controller that prevents me from doing special move inputs. Its made me a better player ✊🏾

I have literally never heard anyone gripe about easy specials from modern controls its so much deeper than just "easy specials" on modern you literally have a handful of combos that lead into supers that you literally mash buttons on meaning instead of learning 100% of the game you only need to learn about 40% of the game and let the AI do the rest modern lets players do specials FASTER than anyone could do with classic controls its literally impossible in a ranked match to react within 1 frame and do an optimal combo into a super UNLESS your playing modern and you just mash your ass off personally when i lose to modern players i consider it a bot CPU and move on i dont even consider them human players because they arent doing anything

Both same

of course the new character is yet another bastard child of heihachi

You know this is a good video, focusing on the basic because most matches are won by using your normals most of the time, and also know when to use lp,lk,mp,mk,hp,hk, also space control and reacting

Modern controls also have auto combos. You’re being disingenuous.

This games input reader is hot garbage. *crouches, moves forward, crouches, moves forward, attacks, lvl 3 super* Surprised pikachu face

You count Ken's run as a special? Your life would have been so much easier if you could do run/stop combos, at least lol. Technically it does no damage :)

I have no problem with people learning with modern controls, keep it up guys, ignore the hate! It's coming from low rank players anyway. BUT modern Zangief will always feel like a robbery because you can literally do things that are impossible for classic players with no effort

you got to master with the besy character arguably in the game.

Hell yeah, subbed

Modern is for newbies or people who will do anything to get a W, I don't respect it #myopinion

That was amazing what you did! Very fun to watch that and it took 19 hours of grinding.

This is a dope ass challenge to just get used to characters im definitely gonna go for this
