      If it was remotely as easy as you think then there would be a bunch of Kaz out of pools.

      @@mrharvy100 Ok ok, so half of those things you mentioned Steve literally has, he has a god awful jump, his neutral is better than Kazuya's but is still pretty bad, and ever heard of a NIL. You say I know nothing about Kazuya, but it sounds like you know nothing of Steve.
      Riddles is an amazing player and I'm not ever going to discredit his or any other Kazuya main's efforts, nevertheless the character has fundamentally better tools in a lot of situations than most charcters. Like, half of his moves have invulnerability and are far safer than most while he only needs a few proper hits to connect to kill.
      Riddles pilots Kazuya with a ton of finesse and is one of only two players I've seen that plays him this well. To an extent Steve is similar in many ways, there are only a handful of great Steve players and the average Steve player is a campy son of a bitch that never approaches and has no concept of neutral it feels like.
      Steve is very technical as well though, his combo's aren't as guaranteed and are way easier to SDI out of, other than the basic Steve ladder, he trades consistent combo's for a slightly better disadvantage and a very nuanced recovery. You also have to realize though that Kazuya is a lot more explosive and while Steve could maybe do 70-80 percent on a combo with diamond. Kazuya has all that from the start, no build up, he has access to almost everything from the start while being heavy, suprisingly agile, can turn around instantly to make things hit when they wouldn't otherwise and can kill earlier than at least 2/3rds the cast consistently.
      My original point to a completely different person was that Kazuya is really good and and there's no denying that, and that it is hypocritical that people hate on Steve for being "easy" while both characters have lame ways to play them that make this game not fun. I just didn't immediately point out Steve's issues, while noting that it's funny that people mald when a Steve wins and rejoice when he loses in an offline major.

      @@mrharvy100 The game is what it is. Too many games for us to enjoy to waste emotional energy crying about camping.
      If someone dislikes it that much either stop playing the game or counterpick. Those are your real options. Simple and both are valid courses of action.

      No it’s Steve. Steve can be just as lame as Sonic if the player wants to. Steve could easily be Kaz in the neutral game without resorting to hiding in the sky which is lame if not more so then Sonic stuff

      No one who’s playing for money is going to bet it all every stock and say I can beat you before you hit me with a grab/ewgf/dbt/crouch stun/ etc. all of those lead to death combos at any percent below 120 ish.

    People complaining about camping - It's not about camping. It's about sending a message. You can tell Riddles was off his game after seeing DDEE toy with him like that, and then he cooled it with the sky camping and started brawling (As much as you safely can against Kazuya) for the rest of the match. Good for this kid to be able to have the composure to play mind games against an opponent like Riddles in top 8. I honestly found the whole set pretty entertaining from start to finish.

      @@stephorozco8911 It’s also pretty lame if you play Steve in only 1 way against every matchup. Steve only camps against kazuya, against others he goes for those crazy up air strings like we say with ddee against terry. Kazuya kills wayyyy to early, and every combo kazuya has ends in a smash or some kinda of kill confirm. So it’s more the kazuya pick to blame.
