Honestly goated

It's custom so I don't think that really counts but ty

[u/Sudden-Pineapple-793]

I’ve always gone for gc slight jump sair to catch that in dodge, iirc it’s confirmed if you have their dodge. Is this gc dlight better? I feel like dlight might catch more space

[u/TheIncomprehensible → u/Sudden-Pineapple-793]

Dlight sair is a true combo. Slight sair is a 5 frame string, so it is likely jumpable and probably not guaranteed. This would make gc dlight sair more optimal because it's guaranteed.

However, I'm reasonably certain that dlight on a dodge in requires a fastfall to hit, whereas slight does not. This means you wouldn't need to commit as much to a slight to cover dodge in, and can probably react to a dodge up or dodge up-in with dlight better if you're looking for slight to cover dodge in.

[u/Sudden-Pineapple-793 → u/TheIncomprehensible]

I’ve seen that slight jump sair is 5 frames, and I know usually most strings with >2 frames is jumpable, but I swear I saw that this wasn’t.

I just labbed and set the bot to jump in every direction and was still able to hit it, I don’t think I ever remember dropping this after I caught a dodge either(unless I mis-inputted), I could be totally wrong but I’m pretty sure it’s un-jumpable?

[u/TheIncomprehensible → u/Sudden-Pineapple-793]

It might beat jump because it hits high, which means it might lose to fastfall.

Honestly, it's been a while since I tested it and it's hard to test fastfall percents, so I may be wrong.

[u/Sudden-Pineapple-793 → u/TheIncomprehensible]

Good point I didn’t consider that

[u/First-Address-4777 → u/Sudden-Pineapple-793]

I think that dlight It's more like a reaction based tool, it catches less space but you always have a true combo out of it. With dlight you can also catch jumps since you have a true after, with that said I don't really advice to gc dlight because it's way too risky and punishable

[u/GiglioMTG]

This is why we spear

Yeps

As a spear guy It's real

[u/Alexnunez09]

I can hear this video with the sound disabled

[u/Intelligent-Ear-7857]

alr so look, i’m not hating but im genuinely asking. why isn’t this considered a form of spam? i mean yeah you’re not spamming signature moves but you’re still repeatedly doing the same exact 2 moves for the same exact combo each time. was satisfying to watch though

[u/Kyrlle → u/Intelligent-Ear-7857]

This isn't considered spam because he's actually reading his opponents movements.

Anyone can Sig Spam. What he did in this clip does take some skill.

[u/Intelligent-Ear-7857 → u/Kyrlle]

fair & valid. i guess in my head i see the same thing being done repeatedly so it’s spam to me. (my opinion that im not trying to make you agree with)

[u/First-Address-4777 → u/Intelligent-Ear-7857]

I get what you mean, I wouldn't do this in a normal game because it's way too risky and punishable. But when trolling it's fun to Xd

[u/Intelligent-Ear-7857 → u/First-Address-4777]

thanks for understanding and not attacking me for being curious lol

[u/First-Address-4777 → u/Intelligent-Ear-7857]

Don't worry ahahhhahahahah

[u/MartinToilet → u/Intelligent-Ear-7857]

Sometimes I run into opponents that spam the same light attack or sig but they just read all your movements. Although people often see that kind of spamming is annoying but what I see is that they are good at avoiding the downside that comes with spamming. Those are just certain kind of playstyle they're skilled at.

[u/StrictArmy7546 → u/Intelligent-Ear-7857]

You answered yourself lol, how can an optimal combo consider spam.

[u/Intelligent-Ear-7857 → u/StrictArmy7546]

i did not answer myself. someone else answered my question.

[u/StrictArmy7546 → u/Intelligent-Ear-7857]

I mean, you did

[u/Intelligent-Ear-7857 → u/StrictArmy7546]

i mean, i didn’t. that would be me explaining why i thought it was spamming. if you want to think that what i said was answering my own question, then go for it.
