Xenoverse. I was in the top 10 on the ranked leaderboards for a while, and I can honestly say I'm in the top 10% at the game.

It gets boring though, I constantly fight randoms in PVP, and nobody got the memo that saiyan ki spammer is no longer the meta, so its the same fight over and over, with me winning without a scratch.

But every now and again I find somebody who pushes my shit in, and I find myself looking to find somebody who can beat me so I can kind of recapture that feeling when I started this game ages ago of still learning.

Fuck I love this game.

You're being a faggot dude. Says him, and says me.

Your game is shit, and the "competitive" scene (lol) is comprised of 12 year old asain children, and being the top 10% of them is nothing to be proud of.
>>
>>340209304
I agree with the dude. I'd consider myself top 10% on ds2 pvp. Beind good in a non competitive dead game is a waste of time, but one could argue that applies to vidya in general

You have had 3 people tell you that you are wrong now. How many more will it take, for you to realize that "Competitive Xenoverse" is fucking stupid, borderline non-existant, and that you are a fucking idiot for being proud of being in "the top 10%".

Oh lord, tell me about it.

I was fighting some faggot who healed at a retarded rate, and had to beat him into an infinite combo using guard cancels and forward snap vanish mix ups just to get his health below mine when the time ended.

And this was on ranked as well, i won against this type of bullshit and it still pissed me off.

>>340211906
>was already dying

It got a serious second wind when arm crash was found.

This fucking move breaks ultimate and super spam in half, thus making saiyan spammers bottom tier. Absolutely balanced and fun ever since.

They seriously need to fix lobbies for X2 though.

>>
>>340212316
You can't use items in ranked, which is pretty good.

But yeah, some lobby settings would be nice. A time limit removal would be good, entirely because when you see 2 Fat Majins fighting, they run the fucking clock out due to their huge health, its great fun to watch though.
>>
>>340212571
not everyone plays ranked
and often casual pvp is more fun than ranked
>>
>>340212782
Oh i agree. I've not done ranked in a few weeks now, and just challenge people in lobby, or join normal lobbies.

Normal is for fun, Ranked is to test what you've learned so far.

>>340213503
>ssj2+goldfridgezsoul+emperor deathbeam

You've not done ranked for a while have you? The moment you try to use an ultimate, you would get arm crashed, or any other stamina buster move, and lose maybe half your health.

The meta is way more balanced now. Ki spammers are borderline useless in any serious match.

>>340213694
oh yeah i haven't played for a while now
since the third tournament last year
>>
>>340214061
Oh right. Well briefly before the third tournament "stamina buster" moves were found, so whenever your enemy uses anything that invokes super armor, you use said move and it breaks their guard instantly (and cancels out their move as well)

It made ki spammers a thing of the past, now that their overly dramatic wind up moves are the most easy to counter thing since fucking pearl flash/ forward dash/SV movements.
>>
>>340214245
they were always there
hyper/super drain
bluff kamehameha
arm crush

i think that evil rise strike is still broken
same with phantom fist and spirit ball
>>
>>340214863
Yeah, but those (mostly arm crash) straight up destroy guards/super armor now. Its not that ki spammers were nerfed, its that melee was given a huge buff.
>>
>>340215950
melee was always good
people just picked the easiest and most obvious things to spam
also the only buff strikers got was super armor for their ultimates and unlock potential
>>
>>340216520
Unlock Potential is a trap.

You get such a small increase in stats, but such a huge drain on your ki and stamina recharge.
>>
>>340216694
the biggest buff is speed for unlock potential
using it with a fridge makes you very fast

if you're worried about stamina regen you should use the ssj bargain sale zsoul

Also Trackmania, after a while just running the same track over and over again to get the best time becomes almost automatic and then suddenly time's up, next track.
