LOL apparently so. I wish these fuckheads would fight me offline to see what a lagless fight feels like. And they have the audacity to say there's no lag on their end. Also fuck Christie, Hayate and Rig online.
Exactly. I know this guy who plays Mila and he wins online sometimes because I can't counter/break combo throws, but I destroy him offline. People learn online strats that don't work offline.
I have good connections with most people in my scene, though I played a couple others that live a little further away and it's awful. I cannot describe how frustrating it is to lose to people that you can beat regularly offline. It's why I say online is never legit.
Don't take it so seriously. You know offline & online are two separate things. If the person thinks they're both the same that in itself proves you're the better player so just let them run their mouths. They're just kidding themselves in the end.
I don't care what they think, but the fact that they act like that annoys the hell out of me. I'm just fucking around online and they think it's a proverbial fight to the death.
I think the fact that slow escaping doesn't work well online is far more egregious than Christie. Frankly I am tired of seeing people bitch about Christie online. We get it. Let me ask you all something what good is a 9f jab if it comes out 5-10 frames late?
I'm kinda sick of it regardless because when you beat them by punishing their unsafe shit and using fundamentals to win they cheapen the fact that you won by saying "You use Christie online therefore you still suck". People know this game has shitty netcode yet they still moan about it like they are getting fucked.
I don't hate Christie at all, and actually know how complex a character she is. However, it's because of this learning curve that every fucking random Christie I encounter just mashes as hard as ALPHA players. It's a stupid 50/50 between 6PPPP & PPPP4P strings 80% of the time. I wish every Christie fought like Awesmic.
