former pro fighting game player doesnt understand - how overhead attacks work - how blocking works -frame data ( what's plus and minus on block etc) - how the clash system works - push block - ranked matches aren't a good place to learn new characters. does know - how to have gout.
Andy Liddiard lol dude push block in this game is stupid they made the input forward meterburned from the injustice 1 style of block meter burn which means u hav to stop blocking super quick and half he time u get hit and accidentally clash
Here's the thing. You fully abknowledge that you're not great at the game, and you'll take that. DSP would never admit he's terrible at the game. He'll fight to the death that the game is what's causing him to lose and not him. He will never, ever abknowledge his L's. Just the fact that you'll openly take the L when DSP can't possibly fathom believing in the slightest that he sucks at the game should make you proud dude.
In fairness, online competition is a different talent pool. Also, Phil probably plays most fighters like he's playing SF2. Still, when there's nothing riding on it aside from pride, there's little excuse for the excuses. If you fluff your inputs, take the hit. That stream he did yesterday with that Brian guy was alright. When there's an actual person on the other side, he calms right down.
He tends to refer back to "fundamentals" often, based on his one moderate fighting game success, which was in a shitty port of Super Turbo. But he doesn't seem to take into consideration that over 20 years have passed since those "fundamentals" were established, and fighting games constantly tweak the formula. Plus, the vast amount of fighting games offer infinite variation, so those "fundamentals" he's so proud of are going to mean jack shit in a game like Guilty Gear. And yes, we are also talking about online gameplay which can match you with opponents of all skill levels, even those on par with high-level tournament veterans. But the root of the issue is that Phil simply is NOT good at fighting games, and never has been, aside from a very brief period of time having moderate success at ST on the East Coast, and that doesn't mean a damn thing in the competitive scene today. Even if he were to go back to ST, the current top ST players would destroy his ass.
Necroing. But I'd like to point out, he sees the other player pick flash. Hes knows that flash will wreck him as swamp thing. Verbally acknowledged it, then locked in swamp thing.
I've never once seen Phil do a cool combo. I mean in any game. Nothing is optimized, practiced or thought out. He just spams the same garbage over and over then complains about how the opponents are using cheap characters / tactics.
DSP Pro fighting game strats; 1. Special Move in neutral 2. Other Special Move (unsafe) 3.Special move with an overhead mixed in (a whole 20% damage!) 4. Sweep (dont capitalize youll die) 5.
Spot on there - I also made a comment about that. Like, he sometimes will literally admit that he doesn't know the match-up or his opponent's (or his own) moves but then he goes on, just like you've said, that his character just CANNOT do something against it. "I cannot get out of the corner/punish move X/beat character X". The fight against Reversed Flash: He outright says that based on the opponent's level, he probably mains Flash, so he naturally knows a lot of stuff and how to play against a certain other character. On the other hand, he doesn't "main"/play a lot with Swampthing. Then he loses ONCE, against a player with much more knowledge who plays much better and goes "yeah, I don't think Swampthing can beat Flash".
What really made it glorious was that he never once tried to fire back with Swamp Thing's logroll attack. It probably wouldn't have *saved* him, mind, but it's not like Swamp Thing can't hit guys that far off.
*Swampthing just cannot win against Reverse Flash. It's physically impossible. I know this because I played Swampthing once against Flash and lost.* Injustice 2: 101 - taught by Phil. I think since SF5 it became a standard habbit for him to pick a new character and after losing ONE match against another character, he starts to say "I don't think [his character] can win against [opponent character]". Or he plays one character for a few matches and says "[his character] has no anti-air/reversal/move X". He even says this after playing against said character and seeing his opponent being able to. If Phil cannot do something, then it's just not possible. Even when he says every 10 minutes "I don't know what to do in this match up", "I never fought X before", "I don't know his moves", yadda yadda. He literally says he doesn't know how to play a character against another character but at the same time after one loss confidently claims how winning is not possible. I wish someone would make a transcript of the shit he says and make a video of it and force him to watch it, not knowing it were his words. Even HE would realize what fucking nonsense it is. Then reveal to him that they are his words...
Der Maskierte Muchacho in his defense, rush down characters typically eat heavy hitters alive in most fighting games because of the clash of styles. It's just that Phil never learned how to try and counter that.
CruelSharkThesis lol I could beat this flash with swamp thing and I've never been in the lab with him hell I play a bottom 5 character in this game and I do just fine
I'd just like to say that Scarecrow is fucking sick in this game. Great design and voice, and I love the hook usage. Even so, apparently zoning is a huge problem in this game, with tons of reward for little risk, so I won't give Phil beef on any difficulties there.
"there's no way for me to get in while the other guy can spam projectiles" Phil.... there's a mechanic called a meter burn dash. I swear a 3 year old can win against him
Dude that fucking Reverse Flash and Robin in the beginning destroyed him holy shit. That was just pure domination. Phil's just sitting there the whole time like wuuuuut. Skill, Phil. You got wrecked.
He's got one easily counterable combo. That's how he plays EVERY fighting game ever. "I can't do anything" Of course because you kept doing the same and your opponent adapted. And he was just talking about how scarecrow couldn't do much of anything in the previous video yet that Scarecrow played him perfectly. Also I love that random super from him XD.
So he plans on winning without knowing a single combo? Does this guy have mental problems? Complains about his character but doesn’t switch?? Sad bastard
surprise surprise he loses alot. never his fault though. i love that because of the negativity for the game's streams(aka no one is tipping) is why he might go back to P5.
For being a former pro fgc guy Phil really doesn't practice his fundamentals. It makes watching his fights infuriating sometimes but it's also nice to learn from his mistakes lol
I honestly believe that Phil will just shout that he was blocking or dodging, when he fully knows he actually didn't, so that he could make it look like the game screwed him over anyway for sympathy points and excuses.
Swamp Thing DOES need a teleport to be viable. As of this point, Deadshot's projectiles go uncountered against Swamp Thing. I'm not salty just cuz I'm a swamp thing main, but there's simply no answer, especially since meter burn rolls are often unsafe and can even be interrupted during startup. Anyways, video is a well-put together compilation. Thanks!
I cringed with disgust as he called Darkseid’s attacks “little slaps” and “sissy kicks”. Those attacks would probably obliterated half (or more) of the roster if they didn’t play by “Injustice rules”. He’s lucky they merely interrupts his own attacks, lol.
Damn i thought he was supposed to be good at fighter games but everyone is more skilled then others but i would not say i'm a pro at fighter games or any game BONUS> I'm gonna be honest here i watch DSP watched and been sub to him since 2012 i like to watch him play games and be salty because it's y'all know funny as hell and i don't hate him for it because it's kinda of a stupid reason to hate someone i'm not being a fanboy or anything i'm just being reasonable and not saying that the funny vids i can't stop y'all and i'm not gonna try because i love to watch VB'S vids of him PS Thanks for the vid's VB 🤘🏻
I will give DSP this at least he didn't lose all these matches run to deadshot and then claim deadshot takes more skill than Guile like LTG. He's still garbage though.
So Reverse Flash is basically Flash right? My DC knowledge is practically non-existent. Never got real into DC plots and stories but these fighting games look pretty cool, even though I blow ass at fighting games lol.
Yes, in a nutshell the Reverse Flash (the one in this game) is basically The Flash from the future, except he can travel through time much easier and has rewritten history so many times, the universe went "fuck it, this guys a living time paradox".

@@jamesmatthews2166 that's how most games do it u scrub
@@jamesmatthews2166 get used to it noob.
No matter how much I suck at fighting games, I can take comfort knowing I will always be better than DSP
Here's the thing.
You fully abknowledge that you're not great at the game, and you'll take that.
DSP would never admit he's terrible at the game. He'll fight to the death that the game is what's causing him to lose and not him. He will never, ever abknowledge his L's.
Just the fact that you'll openly take the L when DSP can't possibly fathom believing in the slightest that he sucks at the game should make you proud dude.
he lost a ton matches "I am a former pro Fighter gamer"
DSP Detractor No. 47 blahkin'
He also said "I am probably one of the best overall gamers in the country". What do we learn from this? He is delusional.
Yeah, but he can be good at games if he wants to though.

"I don't think the Swamp thing can beat Flash at all" Phil actually thinks that winning depends on the character and not who is playing.
You're right, but DSP uses the same excuse no matter what character he plays.

4. Sweep (dont capitalize youll die)
5.
phil only knows one swampthing string lel
he hasnt gotten bodied this hard in a while
Well, that's not really something new.
He usually picks a character, plays a bit until he figures out one string and repeats it over and over again.
fair point,
its just especially poignant when he then complains about not having any moves to get out of pressure or w.e
Spot on there - I also made a comment about that.

I love how he's bitching about a fast character being fast xD
"He's too fast to react to!" Shouldn't have spent all those years eating fast food and being broken by gout.
11:20
That zoning.
*DO YOU WANT TO PLAY THE FUCKING GAME!?*
Der Maskierte Muchacho It wasn't Deadshot but this will do.
What really made it glorious was that he never once tried to fire back with Swamp Thing's logroll attack. It probably wouldn't have *saved* him, mind, but it's not like Swamp Thing can't hit guys that far off.

Harley still taking his soul I see.
Enjoy the *SALT*
Vault Boy thanks man,we will.
him being constantly dumbfounded by players with actual skill destroying him will never get old to me. thanks for the upload babe, xo
Lol
DSP fanboys cry them selves to sleep at night I tell you what
Hank Hill they also cry because they get robbed every month
"Themselves..."
"that little sissy kick" I hope Phil like knows the reason is to show Darkseid isn't really trying at all in a fight to show how powerful he is
He only wins against noobs anybody who plays at least half decent will destroy him
Why does he keep playing swampthing if he complains hes slow? Dsp complaining about playing himself lol
"Dsp complaining about playing himself..."
OH GAWD, not something I wanted to *EVER* remember! *SHUDDER*
I'd just like to say that Scarecrow is fucking sick in this game. Great design and voice, and I love the hook usage.
Even so, apparently zoning is a huge problem in this game, with tons of reward for little risk, so I won't give Phil beef on any difficulties there.
THD Robert England voiced him! I hope I spelled that right, I love how NRS implements horror icons in their games
"Swamp thing is useless" - Man who plays nothing but Swamp Thing
"there's no way for me to get in while the other guy can spam projectiles" Phil.... there's a mechanic called a meter burn dash. I swear a 3 year old can win against him
i think phil forgot how to change characters lol
never mind he did. still got his ass beat 😂😂
"you can just spam light projectiles and win"....oh you mean like captain cold...wonder why he loved him 90% of the stream
Dude that fucking Reverse Flash and Robin in the beginning destroyed him holy shit. That was just pure domination. Phil's just sitting there the whole time like wuuuuut. Skill, Phil. You got wrecked.
He's got one easily counterable combo. That's how he plays EVERY fighting game ever.
"I can't do anything"
Of course because you kept doing the same and your opponent adapted. And he was just talking about how scarecrow couldn't do much of anything in the previous video yet that Scarecrow played him perfectly.
Also I love that random super from him XD.
So he plans on winning without knowing a single combo? Does this guy have mental problems? Complains about his character but doesn’t switch?? Sad bastard
I'm watching this with my bag of Doritos and my bottle of fanta cus I gotta win with Deadshot
hamza assad wait till he says the same thing when he faces a deadshot lol
surprise surprise he loses alot. never his fault though. i love that because of the negativity for the game's streams(aka no one is tipping) is why he might go back to P5.
Cole Redmond Has he gotten anywhere near the final boss of P5 yet?
I can't wait for that.
"i'm not even doing anything and i'm getting hit!"
What the fuck do you expect to happen?
I was waiting for you to cover his Injustice 2 coverage. You always capture all the salt this fuck drops VB, solid job.
Andrew Dahlke thanks for the kind words I appreciate it
"im gonna get destroyed, watch!" he's becoming self aware
19:04 Poor baby's eye is burning boo hoo
First: "Everything is so slow" Then: "Oh, he's too fast to react to".
some one should count how many times he's said "nothing I could do", throughout his whole fighting career
"There was nothing I could do..."
Keeps playing swamp thing lol
"I will only play one character that I dislike so that people will think there is something wrong with the character, not me." - thought DipShitPhil.
If DSP was on Salty Bet, he'd be worse than Veku.
Captain cold has a gun yet DSP tries to punch people in the face with it.
little does he know, Swamp Thing in fact does have a teleport, it is a skill you can get the replaces Abigail's Garden lol
Love how he whines and complains about how he's gonna lose a match before it even starts.
Defeat is a state of mind, gout boy.
For being a former pro fgc guy Phil really doesn't practice his fundamentals. It makes watching his fights infuriating sometimes but it's also nice to learn from his mistakes lol
claims swampthing is too slow
chooses swampthing and wonders why reverse flash kicks his ass
"Phil the Swamp"?
You should be losing as Darkseid, dingleberry.
"Should I go into training mood and practice....nah. I'm a pro Super Turbo player. I'm good."
When he was captain cold the flash WRECKED him
He knows online play is competitive and goes in only knowing 2 strings.
phil likes to say that hes gonna lose before a match starts just so that he doesnt look stupid when he does lose lol
5:10 at least it wasn't a one bar win huh? That was rape. Phil is just embarrassing with his rationalizations.
"cold sucks" Cold is S tier character mate.
Nothing I could do!
ah VB nice to see u back as always i love ur videos and wachin dsp again is just happiness ill continue to watch ur videos but wb
ooh boy, keep bringing the salty goodness in Vault Boy :)
Raging Raving no problem
He complains that swamp thing is too slow yet continues to use him. Logic, anyone?
*Phil* I WAS BLOCKING ! no Phil you were standing still
I honestly believe that Phil will just shout that he was blocking or dodging, when he fully knows he actually didn't, so that he could make it look like the game screwed him over anyway for sympathy points and excuses.
@@Marverick1998 I wouldn't doubt that we see through his bs lies
I haven't seen him use one clash yet this is physically painful
Ok I saw him finally start it but fuck, he literally doesn't even seem to be aware of those mechanics
Swamp Thing DOES need a teleport to be viable. As of this point, Deadshot's projectiles go uncountered against Swamp Thing. I'm not salty just cuz I'm a swamp thing main, but there's simply no answer, especially since meter burn rolls are often unsafe and can even be interrupted during startup.
Anyways, video is a well-put together compilation. Thanks!
Am I the only one who wants him to learn the range of the tendril throw? He keeps using it at distance.
Dood im blocking *counter hit* still blocking *counter hit* nothing I could do man
he keeps saying The Flash is too fast
well no shit
#injusticesalt
"i think this match up is IMPOSSIBLE" wew lad
"im not even doing anything and im getting hit!!" yeah thats uh,thats fighting games?
What is his Win/loss ratio atm? does someone know?
Glad you're back Vault Boy! Missed ya!
Flash is too fast for swamp thing. ThEn PlAy SoMeOnE eLsE
its funny how this guy thinks he knows what hes talking about but in reality hes just saying gibberish
he gonna get his ass whip in Tekken 7
Even when DSP has a chance to have a combo, he never has a good one coming out at all, only a 3-5 hit combo?
I cringed with disgust as he called Darkseid’s attacks “little slaps” and “sissy kicks”. Those attacks would probably obliterated half (or more) of the roster if they didn’t play by “Injustice rules”. He’s lucky they merely interrupts his own attacks, lol.
Dont fuck with Harley Quinn.
I WAS BLAWKING
Damn i thought he was supposed to be good at fighter games but everyone is more skilled then others but i would not say i'm a pro at fighter games or any game
BONUS> I'm gonna be honest here i watch DSP watched and been sub to him since 2012 i like to watch him play games and be salty because it's y'all know funny as hell and i don't hate him for it because it's kinda of a stupid reason to hate someone i'm not being a fanboy or anything i'm just being reasonable and not saying that the funny vids i can't stop y'all and i'm not gonna try because i love to watch VB'S vids of him
PS Thanks for the vid's VB 🤘🏻
I will give DSP this at least he didn't lose all these matches run to deadshot and then claim deadshot takes more skill than Guile like LTG. He's still garbage though.
8:48 here we go again
lovin the intro lol
What happened to his Nioh DLC playthrough?
God his swamp thing sucks
The WORST Swamp Thing player EVER! Worse than my Swamp Thing...
Wow i think the Swamp Thing you fight in the campaign actually comboes better than this clown on very easy,
Is phill doing ranked or player matches?
Lava Comic-Geek ranked
rukia fanboy aka the best place to learn a character. if only there was some form of practise mode...
Andy Liddiard not his fault ack ack ack ack nothing he could do
Lol Robin is a weeb
How did this scrub place 4th at evo? Jesus
can't find part1
He was fucking terrible at IJ2
why does he keep using swamp thing??!!. he's garbage with him and it's sooooo boring.
