lol the first few things are about WHAT YOU MUST NOT DO and then the part with the casual gaming popped up. I was laughing so hard, my stomach hurts.

As one of those n00bs, I pretty much don't give a damn of what other guys say, what I should do or what not. It's not their business. I'm playing MB since the Beta and my skills haven't improved much because I don't care BECAUSE OF THE CASUAL GAMING THING. It's a game after all. Everyone who goes for guides and is aiming for the top is broken, from my view. People play it because it's fun and it's challenging. But I just think some of you guys don't. :V

I still don't block on wakeup, I don't know what teching means, mixup is a cocktail and blockstrings are for women. And I won't change these facts because I don't care if I lose or not. And if I win, I don't care, too.
I am somewhat scared of those guys who play by looking at frame timing. I mean, wtf? They should stop playing and analyze videos for security purposes.

Srsly.

Edit: I'm not defending those guys who are the cause you posted this thread. I just felt you talked to me xD

Seconded. I play MB because its a video game and for the sake of entertainment. All the advanced techniques and terminology are just good-to-know things that I can learn to have an edge over my friends.  :V

It's not like what he posted in the opening is incorrect though. Just cause you aren't going to use it doesn't mean other n00bs will.

My point was addressed to people who suck at the game and don't know why, possibly because they have conceptions from other fighting games that carried over to MB (for example, DP on wakeup is a much better option in super turbo than MB). There's nothing wrong with sucking at the game if you know why you suck, because then you at least know what you have to improve. But if you're rubbish at the game and don't know why, that's when it becomes a problem, as you have no idea what to build on. These are only general points. If you REALLY want to improve, what I reccomend is to find someone who plays your char and is very good. For example if you were a beginner at vsion, you'd go find sp00ky, or newbie aokos would go find Zar, etc, and just play a bunch of rounds against them, and ask for advice. Someone who has been playing your character for years is by far the best person to ask for advice. The stuff I laid out in the OP is just really general stuff for people who have absolutely no clue what they're doing wrong and want to know. Past that, you should speak to experts on your character for character-specific advice and learn things like their mixups, combos, and such.

I'm sure noone will object to you pruning the obvious troll posts and replies to them.

Anyway, maybe I should update the OP with a list of good people to talk to for advice for certain chars. good idea? y/n

Someone being good doesn't make them a good person to ask for advice, and someone being bad doesn't make them a bad person to ask for advice.

I didn't mean whether the person is good or not, as long as that person has something that I didn't know thats helpful, I'll listen. Of course there are those who tell me crazy advice like not to use dodge (Dodge really does help)

I can't think of any players who are considered "good" and would be bad to ask advice from. I was just thinking of putting up a small list so that vsion players would know to ask sp00ky for advice and ciel players would know to ask brandon/H-F/one of the other 500 ciel players, etc, things like that.
