Remember when you thought you was good at games...

[Luck]

because you played your brothers, friends and whoever local then you got online for your first time and got dusted the fukk off

Or was that just me I was a late bloomer tho, didnt get started even playing online in games against people until about 2011-12 I think. I eventually got better over time but I thought these e-nikkas was cheating for the longest

I can't be the only one this happened to

This happened to everybody unless you were literally at the top of the game. And I've been to real life tournaments where the skill level of people who weren't even top players versus my skill level was

I never followed any of that outside of local play so when I first started playin online it never occurred to me that I was that trash. I figured I was halfway decent

i used to get washed in halo2 online when i first started out

then id play my friends and cousins and go wash them

I got the reverse. I was always good at games, Halo, SF, etc But I was always an avid gamer. I was talking frames and combo strings when I was a kid. I realized that my friends were always bad at fighting games out the gate. Dry supers, everything telegraphed, no combos, etc. I found myself sand bagging just to make it "fun" for them.


Till online came, and I was reaching high ranks quickly. Plus I was always a fan of silly characters (who were more often than not low tier) so I had to get good quick. Been nothing but fun ever since. From Playstation All Stars to SF5 (pre-season 2), I've been enjoying the win streaks and the occasional loss.

you can't compete with them nerds.. and it's not that they are better.. they are STUDYING

you showing up to class and winging it on tests, getting b's.. these motherfukkers studying 3 hours a night and getting A pluses.. i'm just not willing to do that shyt



i used to be avg with most games, win some, lose some.. from madden to SF to tekken to soul calibur to 2k. sometimes an out of town nikka would visit. he might get the work, he might not


but when tekken came out, i was constantly getting my ass kicked.. couldn't do shyt.. my mans was beating my ass 100 out of 100 times.. then i found out why.. this motherfukker went and bought the strategy guide, and would sit around all night in practice mode, studying combos and moves and shyt.. but never told anyone else, who was playing simply on discovery and "let me pause real quick and see what my moves are"


and this is why i say they aren't better......... i sat at his house for one day and read that book.. instead of skimming around, i settled in on Jin and learned all his shyt.. 8 hit combos and all.. combo breakers and all

i never lost at that game again... ever... tekken tag came out... Jin and Jun... them nikkas didn't even want to play the game if i was over there. they jumping around to characters, i stick with what i studied.. bodied nikkas



now skip to today.. nikkas is watching youtube vids of what plays work.. what ways to exploit shyt.. little tells and glitches.. 3 page move lists.. 100 hit combos.. map downloads.. where to hide.. what weapons are the best in what conditions.. on mics doing full out army strategies



man i don't have time for that bullshyt.. i just fire up the game and play


but if i did...

When madden first went online and you saw all the nano blitzes people would use. It was disgusting.
