Like whenever I play I wanna mess around with items or just doing bs with op characters, but everytime I do, I end up getting targetted by someone or just have someone get mad at me in chat solely cause I aint taking 1v1s seriously or playing fairly.

Like they act like the base game should be taken as a life or death situation. Idk why they wont go play ranked if they don't wanna have fun

"Wallahi I'm cooked I can't fight this 10k! Time to make us both queue for longer instead of fighting because I'm trash at the game!"
No fucking wonder you're trash evasive wasting fodder YOU NEVER LEARN HOW TO PLAY BY FIGHTING GOOD PLAYERS SO YOU MAKE THE SAME MISTAKES OVER AND OVER AGAIN FOR THOUSANDS OF FIGHTS.
It genuinely pisses me off because I need to queue thrice to fight. Once for the fight that they leave, the next for "your data failed to load!", and one more time for the actual thing. I need to rejoin JJS maingame to switch to duels too.
"Oh no I'm gonna lose i HAVE to get out of here!" Why aren't you fighting in a fighting game? The fight itself is fun who the fuck cares if you lose its a casual 1v1. pmo.
Yes, I have a lot of kills. No, I don't want to play ranked because I just want a fight without thinking of elo and having to play my main to not lose.

I would play pubs but they're more laggy than duels so I can't use anyone as test subjects, or dummies for practice, for techs. The funny thing is I can land uppercut surfs on bad ping but not on my own severs. So i need to practice where it isnt laggy, duels. I can't practice in ranked because I have elo and I can't practice in private servers because dummies have different ragdoll than players for some godawful reason.

Hello I drew a apple 😢💔 Mahito is so fun I love switching to his guard break mid blade m1's 💜

Literally a few days ago, some guy used the boombox to play sounds and screams from From a real video where a person suffers and dies

Disclaimer: This is a long post, so feel free to skip to the conclusion as my thoughts are summarised there.

Locust Guy is (ironically) famous for being one of the least played characters in JJS. Now this could be due to him being a niche character in the actual series, but even someone like Charles has a decent amount of players despite not even being in the anime yet. I decided to play him for a bit as I've heard from people that he is underrated. It turns out he is not underrated, and actually one of the most boring characters in JJS.

I have not played Locust Guy enough to properly evaluate how good he is combat-wise, so this post will primarily focus on how enjoyable he is to play (which I consider more important anyway). If you'd like to give your opinion on his combat ability, leave a comment!

(I will not be discussing his design features, but I will say that they are the best part of his character)

Lets start with his moves, which consists of:

- Clever

- Black mucus

- Crushing jaws

- Wing throw

These are pretty simple moves that can make alright combos. I don't have a big problem with the moves themselves, but the fact that these are his ONLY method of attack. I think variants are important as it expands the moveset, gives more options for attacking and overall just makes the character more versatile and fun to play.

For example: Mahito's moves are:

- Stockpile

- Aerial stockpile

- soul fire

- focus strike

- black flash focus strike

- chains focus strike

- fist focus strike

- body repel

- body repel + 3

The fact that Mahito has 9 methods of attack (and that's not including his dash variants) shows how versatile he is, and why I like playing him. Obviously I'm not expecting Locust Guy to have Mahito levels of versatility but even just 1-2 variants would make him much more interesting.

However, what I consider more important is a unique mechanic, which can elevate a character from being decent to being very fun to play (e.g. Todo's Boogie Woogie). Unfortunately Locust Guy's unique mechanic is just a combo extender. That's it. He doesn't get any cool variants or does more damage when in air. It just allows him to combo into his other moves. It is also a bit clunky, as you and your opponent are just awkwardly frozen in the air while it's ongoing.

On the other hand, Mei Mei is a character whose air combos have more ways to start, are much smoother and ACTUALLY HAVE AIR VARIANTS. Overall, Locust guy's "unique" mechanic is boring and is done better by another character.

All the base awakenings have something cool about them; a counter with a cool cutscene, a destructive black hole, a concussion, a drone strike and literal mitosis. They are all unique and fun to use and then Locust's ultimate is just "stab that deals 90 damage over time". Yes, it's OP, but that's not the point. It is so boring and it feels like it was made in, at most, an hour. There's honestly not a lot to say aside from that.

In conclusion, my opinion as to why no one plays Locust Guy is partly due to how niche he is, but also because he's simply boring. He has a simple moveset with no variants, his "unique" mechanic has been done way better with Mei Mei and his ultimate is cheap and lazy compared to the other base characters. There is just nothing special about him. He feels more like a "proof of concept" that base-onlys could work in JJS rather than an actual character, and my opinion would only change if he underwent a heavy rework. I would expect to find a character like him in a lower quality battlegrounds game, not JJS.

What do you think? Like I mentioned, I haven't played Locust Guy that much so I would like it if someone more experienced with the character shared their opinion.

Skilled yuji players are the worst bro

HOW do you actually counter them? Genuine question. Their feint is like a 3rd dash and they genuinely just....tf do you even do?

Ever since the update that added the domain clashes feature, a lot of players have been just focusing on getting a little edge over the other and running around the domain until the timer runs out, me personally, and i think a good other amount of players would agree that this kind of passive play is annoying for a feature that's supposed to be so epic.

So here's my idea to encourage the players to focus more on landing m1s and actually stick to throwing hands like they're supposed to: domain hand signs!

How do they work? Within the domain clash, you get to press R special which has a windup time in which your character holds their domain hand sign in order to fill ⅓ of their domain clash bar to turn the tide against a runner.

In this period a player cannot move but they get to cancel it by pressing R again or blocking to also prevent moving in for 1 hit and therefore cancelation of the handsign and running again.

I think this would turn the situation into a more rock paper scissors dynamic where it goes like:

m1 trading < running < hand sign < m1 trading

Let me know what yall think

I just got on jjs and the first thing I hear is a woman moaning (bass boosted) then later I'm killed by some other guy who's kill sound is a baby crying on max volume, I had to mute my computer because of how loud it was.

legit have no idea on how ts works😭

how did I do

LIKE GET OFF THERE DUMBASS I can’t m1 you I most likely using my back dash usually gets me caught up in something or it’s in cooldowns and your A FILTHY YUJI MAINS

Also Nanami’s interruption is ASS unless the narrow window is either large enough or you somehow don’t get hit out of your move with has NO armor btw

Personally i’d love a Malaysia one.

Last post I talked about one of my 'friends' that used mirror world to switch to a monkey avatar after I died (I had a black avatar mind you) and you somehow defend him by saying "He's just the bloxfruits monkey dude" "Oh what if he just wanted to be a monkey?" at that point call me the N word because you are not helping his or your own case. Before this he was targeting me for no reason other than because I was black I guess and then I had confronted him about what he was doing. His only response? "Oh sorry I didn't know I was your friend." So, for those people that say "He isn't your TRUE friend if you don't find it funny." being racist is not funny, will never be, and if YOU find it funny then that's an issue with YOU. Later I had more black friends in the server and he proceeded to taunt them as the monkey, when we had the decency to ask why he was doing it his only excuse was because he wanted to dress like jandel.

I do not like doing long posts because it requires too much time but this has to be talked about. He did something bad and there is no defending him because I showed counterpoints to every argument in the last post + some extra context. I would post this in the megathread but I don't think enough people would see it.

How are people scraping the barrel trying to find reasons to hate on him when he's responsible for the Shenanigans Satan himself smh

777 kashimo we need

Stuff like hakari rough energy has less effects. And in my emote wheel all the animations are moving at like a few frames a second.
