Every single match is just my opponent walking back and then doing jumpscare drive rushes into some other random bullshit, when I start checking drive rushes well now it's time to throw fireballs and then drive rush, I'm so exhausted of just chasing people around. This game really punishes you for not having a reversal, fuck me for picking Manon, awful drive rush, abysmal walk speed, other characters walk back faster than Manon walks forward, its such an annoying experience. Every single match is just this, I'm so tired. I have never felt more frustrated playing a video game, think I'm better off just stopping.

Thank you, I'll try using forward dash more, I rarely use it cause it feels so unsafe.

As for them walking themselves into the corner, I understand that that's supposedly to my advantage but once in corner, they just drive rush or jump out and I have such a difficult time reacting to whatever they do.

I have been using mp for checking drive rush, I'll try using jab more.

It's definitely frustrating when they escape but that's part of where the "being patient" thing comes in. Even if they jump over you and you have to walk them to the other corner, that's fine because you have the time to do that.

Reacting is hard to give advice on. The best I can do is reiterate about spacing. Technically the further away from then you are the more time you gave to react to them doing all sorts of stuff. Obviously you can't just stay super far away from them but you might see if standing just a little further away than you currently do makes the difference.

Yeah it ain't happening dude, thanks for trying to help but I've been fighting nothing but djs and Kens all night and I want to die. I'm done.

Sajam put out a video on this very subject and can explain what you need to do much better than me: https://youtu.be/wq88UvDbj6E

Yeah I saw that, think it's more just a matter of me being bad lol. Taking a break from the game while I wait for my new controller to be delivered, will try to approach the game with better mindset then.

I think I just gotta stop, I was excited to try my new controller and was very quickly reminded why I was so upset last time I stopped playing this game.
