im tryna get into fighting games how do i git gud
| The first move is to not play at all.
| Time and effort
| Pick a character, learn basic combos, special attacks, and just practice.
| Mash buttons
| You don't.
| go play KOF on Fightcade and start hating mankind itself
| Get your ass destroyed online until you destroy theirs. Don't give up, that's what I mean.
| get the fight stick
| Soulcalibur 6 is coming in like a month. Compared to a game like tekken it's easy to pick up and learn. Best thing to do is not get salty and play better players learning from your mistakes.
| the best way to become better with fighting games is to practice combos and the like, and playing against others so you can learn more quickly
| Have a sparring friends.
| the best way to get good fast is :
.1 pick a character that you enjoy
.2 learn the basic mechanics , different types of gards, learn maybe some bnb (reliable combos) and try to aply a basic game plan (rushdown, neutral based , zoning, mi ups etc)
.3 learn all te little things you can do, experiment a lot in training, looks at some mix ups online, setups and good meatys and okizemes.
.4 learn a bit of frame data it helps a lot
Ps you are gonna want to learn the lingo too
| after that play a shit tone and keep practising

This is probably the most important thing. The learning loop goes like:
Play matches > watch match vids from high level players > training mode > repeat.
Having a friend or a group who want to improve also and are willing to play regularly is really important. you won't learn a whole lot from playing randoms online most of the time.
| get a stick, find some game and a char that you like, learn moves/combos/etc, spend hours in practice mode, go play online/in local fighting games club
| >>399679 Sticks are most important when trying to git gud at fighters. I used to only use my keyboard, and it was a chore to mash all the buttons. Can't be bothered to remember much either. Nowadays a train at the arcade and combos are much easier to remember with the stick. While my profiency with it doesn't carryover to my keyboard, I have become considerably more advanced.
| a199cf you can play with a controller too, just don't play on a keyboard, only mad men do that
| >>399703 Keyboards may be less flexible, but they're also more precise. Besides, tfw poor af so can't afford sticks or controllers, yet mfw I beat my friend's as with a keyboard and become the Rocky of King of Fighters.

Controllers really nasty for fighting games imo. I prefer keyboard big time, but stick is still the best.
