Yep

>>332672859
Play for example, street fighter alpha 3 in slow motion. Makes frame (dis)advantages more obvious and gives time to really think about your and your opponent's options.
>>
look up some combos for your favorite characters then practice them.
Learn how to hit the opponent without getting hit yourself.
Play online if available. If it doesn't have online then the game you're playing isn't worth a lot of practice time.
Pay attention to what the other characters can do while your playing online.
Lose a whole bunch until you start winning.
>>
>>332672859
>How do I get good at fighting games?

Honestly it's a waste of time since there's too much guesswork involved.
Playing online is also guaranteed to frustrate unless you play the easiest characters in the game.

Go download killer instinct if you have windows 10 and play through the tutorial. And look at your replays, in whatever game you end up playing.
>>
>>332672859
Study the game, your character of choice, practice how to do all your moves, watch streams and pick up on new things, be mentally prepared to lose a lot, but as long as you're learning it's okay to lose.

I was somewhat okay at older games like MK3 and soul calibur 2 and SF2, but it wasn't until SF4 came out where I really tried to sit down and figure out fighting games. I basically got my ass beat so much that i eventually learned better and now i'm pretty decent.

Beowulf is best Skullgirl.

A shit ton of practice. Watch and learn from people who are good, and make a conscious effort to understand what they are doing. Watch informative videos and read guides. Unless you're incredibly talented it'll take a long time to actually become good.

>>332672859
you just button mash. chances are with the amount of short combos there are you'll shit stomp someone that actually 'knows' what they're doing. especially in a game like skull girls.

HOW TO GET GOOD AT FIGHTING GAMES

STEP ONE FIND A FRIEND OR TWO WHO WANTS TO GET GOOD AT FIGHTING GAMES

STEP TWO PLAY A FIGHTING GAME OVER AND OVER AGAINST THEM WITH THE INTENTION TO IMPROVE

STEP THREE GET GUD

Online play will never get you actually good, local play is the key.

The tutorial in skull girls was really good at actually teaching you the basics and comboes, but then you need to learn all that shit until it's automatic before you reach the actual strategic part. It's hard without some kind of arcade community or real people to playagainst

>>332684881

I agree that a sparring partner is important and if you are both competitive makes a fighting games the best genre of video game ever, BUT online or a variety of people to play is just as important. if you play vs a few players to often you might learn bad habits from them and could make it so you only have a few approach options/limited use of your characters kit because they just fall for it a lot. make sure you don't slouch and fight everyone you can.

Dickride good players in your local scene who are willing to help you
Record your matches and think about what else you could've done when you got hit

I think the biggest part of getting better is understanding what you're doing wrong.

Take it slow. Pick a character you think you'll like or just one that is iconic and practice. Make sure to learn their bread and butter, crossups and mix ups. Then when you go online don't be discouraged by a loss. Adapt and build, then you will eventually get better and better. There is no stasis of good, you just have to strive to be better.
