Staggers give you a ton of time to react to the next attack. Again, no different.
Your reaction is often a guess in that regard though..
You have to guess the manual.. or guess that they’re going to grab (which in most cases can’t be teched because you’re still in stagger animation).. or guess that they’re going to throw off the timing and attempt the reset.. NONE of these things can be reacted to… & thats fine.. but when it keeps happening over and over and over with characters such as Tusk & Thunder who have no risk for attempting either flip out or stagger as enders.. it’s not fun for the defender…

You mean you have to guess in a fighting game when you’re being pressured?
Tell me more.
No, but really, I don’t see your problem with that mechanic by itself.

If you really know then whats understood need not be explained..
The fact of the matter is.. the guessing in this game is an an all time high right now, & this is why it’s receiving so much backlash..
Still haven’t said what one chance 51% combo jago has yet…I’m waiting.

That’s the players, not the game.
The players make the game.. & thats a fact.
I think this may help.
helped me a lot in change my mind on how to break good.
So then what does IG do?
There is nothing in the game encouraging you to guess break.
Nothing.
You guess break cause you are scared. But that’s on you.

So most manuals don’t encourage guess breaking?.. You can chose to break the manual or not.. but breaking it ultimately means you have to guess.. right?

You CAN predict the manual by looking at the move that came before hand.
Sure, it’s still kind of a guess, but not a COMPLETE guess. You can make your odds better by looking at the combo pattern.
I’m in agreeance with this, but this still isn’t fluid as there are characters in the roster that break this rule..
Guessing to combo break has been a thing since the game came out…

Like? Besides Jago in instinct, or after openers?
Some of them were designed like to break the rules. Or at least bend them.
We’re not talking about guess breaking.. we’re talking about guessing per mechanics introduced in s3..
Oh and btw.. opener wind kick to manual, shadow endo, to wind kick, shadow dp… one chance break.. if you don’t guess right.. thats half your life bar pal.. lol
Pretty sure that’s only like 30%, with two meters and two chances to break.
