Some people say learning combos is the hardest part of improving at fighting games. Some people say it's learning neutral. Some say it's situational awareness and learning matchups. But for a lot of people, the hardest part is improving your mental game. And, unfortunately, a lot of people can't get there in the end. I feel like this is something that should be talked about more. Laughing at scrubs is funny, of course, but as this video demonstrates, these aren't always just bad players looking for free wins, often it's players like you and me who are just having a bad day and don't know how to properly deal with that feeling. Great vid though, would love to see another episode of this. 👍
Yeah, that kimberly in the first game was playing like they just got broken up with! you look at those inputs and it reads like FULL tilt. There are so many aspects to improving at fighting games, and recognizing when to stop playing is one of them.
@@SylemGistoeagreed. I have an awful habit of wanting to press on after losing 10 sets in a row, despite knowing full well my mental stack is demolished and yet my ego wants to prove myself wrong. Very tough but that’s why fighting games are great.
@@jpVari DSP is like LTG. A large hater following. People love to watch a train wreck lol the excitement. personally I think DSP whines and complains as part of his act and SF persona, but if it works why not?
I like how someone pointed out that none of these players were bad. Reminds me of that video Sajam made a while ago on how being a scrub is more about your attitude than skill. I think what causes a lot of salt is not understanding the situation you were in when you got angry. That's why its important to review your replays and remember when and why you got angry. Gives you a little more clarity when you look at your mistakes and ask what you could've done differently.
whether someone is a scrub literally has nothing to do with skill level. when you lose, if you blame yourself, you're not a scrub. if you blame anything else, you're a scrub.
The Sandford Kelly stick throw after his match with Rico Suave continues to be one of the all time classic FGC moments haha. I still chuckle whenever I see it.
Bro, I'm sure many people have said it already but this shit needs to be a weekly series or something. It's funny as hell and teaches a whole lot about better decisions, ugly habits (jumping too much, burning all meter etc). It's also great that you insert the correct combos or punishes in training mode. Really, amazing video!
My favorites scrub quotes are the ones that fabricate alternate reality game mechanics to blame their losses on. Saw a steam community post complaining about "rampant cheating" simply based on the fact that the opponents were blocking on wakeup
It wasn't a fighting game, but once upon a time I was convinced a dude was cheating and messaged him about it (some swearing, but no slurs or wishing of violence, at least). Looking back, I probably did just get outplayed. Even if he WAS cheating, it's a video game and years ago so 🤷♂️.
I love how educational he was trying to be with this video, having the cutaways to possible solutions to the problem, it felt like he was actually trying to teach these people what went wrong while still laughing a bit at the rage. Very entertaining and fun to watch! I hope to see more!
Remember everyone, there's nothing wrong with being mad, even at a video game, it's how you express that anger that's the problem. If you're getting frustrated at a game, is perfectly okay to take a 15 minute break, collect yourself, and go do something else, even if that something else is just playing a much more calming game. it doesn't matter how good you are, or think you are, a bad mental state will always make you play worse than you normally would.
I tell others and myself the same thing, when I start losing a lot in rank. I noticed that when the turtling and projectile game is too good, I tend to stop parrying the pokes and sonic booms. I tend to stop, go wash the dishes or play something else for a bit then come back
I come from different competitive games but I think part of the reason why these players aren't really low ranked is that most casual and beginner players don't care as much. They are still just having fun. These people invested time and effort into the game, reached a certain level and with that comes expectations of themselves and entitlement. They belive they understand how the game should be played, they feel cheated out of winning cause of the connection, the controls or the characters because they are unable to reflect and analyze their gameplay. Obviously often instigated by high emotions after a tense session/ tough loss.
As someone consistently in low rank (by choice) in most games, it's just more fun. High tier play is all the same characters and you can't be nearly as risky. You can just hop on a chat say "let's both pick trash and have fun" and your more likely to get a yes.
@@MastaGambit no, I just don't sweat. I play to have fun, and that means unoptimized combos, low tier characters, and mostly fighting friends or other low tier players.
@@Reineerus_The_Rat You say that like those of us pursuing improvement AREN'T "playing for fun." We are. It's a video game. We're ALL playing it for fun, unless your name is Daigo, Mena, Justin Wong, Tokido, et. al.
The lesson I see is, people will complain about any perceived difference between them and their opponents as unfair Once they get to realize there's no hacks and the controls are all fine... You graduate to saying your opponents character is op lmao Edit - I've though that the starcraft 2 player Harstems series 'is it imba or do I suck' was a great way to teach people about the game itself AND the correct mental approach, while still having fun This is the same level of helpful, especially with the training clips edited in. PHENOMENAL work with this. You should do it regularly.
One of the biggest lie we tell ourselves, is that in fighting games, when you lose, you only have yourself to blame, no teammates to blame for your losses. Fighting game players have proven that statement wrong. We blame our opponents, the lag, the unfair characters, imagined hackers, game is supposedly "broken", the sun is in our eyes, too many particles effects in the game, online tactics that would supposedly never work offline, scrub tactics that pros never use, but when they use it against you, you fall for it.
I love that you put examples into the Video everytime you talk about something that would be a better option! I really appreciate it casue more often than not when watching these types of Videos I sit there and think "What is this man talking about" Thanks for the extra effort
Props to whomever edits these. I really like the included snippets of gameplay examples showing what diaphone is talking about in each moment. Hope we get more vids like this!
Make more of these vids plz. And your cut always to the actual punish happening when you say what to do is really informative. Painting that mental picture of the situation is amazing.
extremely low level players in competetive games aren't nearly as toxic on average, I think. More low rank people just aren't invested emotionally in it so they don't go nuts. Gold/platinum kind of ranks are where I've felt the biggest toxicity - good enough to know the basics, putting enough time in to feel invested, but bad enough that you make a ton of silly mistakes and lose things you feel you should have won.
I agree with the toxicity being with “high ranking” players. I remember I came across this platinum Jamie player who beat me 7 times in a row. Which I didn’t mind because to his credit, he was really good with Jamie and although he was frustrating I was using him as practice so I would fair better against lesser Jamie players. But as time went on I was getting used to his tactics and was getting harder and harder to put down. During our last fight I was lowkey dominating. Before I could get my first win of our set he rage quit on me. I once again remind you that I took 7 Ls from this man which pissed me off immensely when he rage quit on me when I was beating him. The fact he stuck around for all his wins but couldn’t stomach one loss is baffling to me
I think that's the thing when you look at these people and be like "oh well they were actually alright though", most of them are just missing some kind of fundamental aspect to their gameplan that essentially got them opened up to hell once someone caught them out on it and that can feel way worse than just being bad at the game because they're genuinely at that point where they think they've got the whole game figured out. It's that stage where they're discovering certain burst options for the first time that some people know how to deal with and others don't, and they haven't learnt that those burst options should only be used in moderation rather than all the time where they become reactable. I've gone through this same kind of thing before learning fighting games and definitely had to learn how to fix my gameplay rather than just be salty.
Maaan, I lost 30 fights straight yesterday with my Honda. Honestly, I was happy the guy kept playing with me cause I wanted to get better. If I won a round I would get humbled the next. As soon as I finally won a set he left and gave me a gg. So to that person, thank you! I see my weaknesses a bit better now. Drive rushing, I just can't pull them off yet. I fumble my joystick inputs a lot. I also need to improve reaction to DI. In hindsight lots of matches were winnable but I didn't pull off supers when I should have to finish it. This is my first time playing SF since this first year of SF4. Lots of adjustments and rust to shake off.
Starting to become a fan of yours man! I picked up Kim just naturally before seeing you play her and now I'm Plat 2 and still going thanks to the tips - between you and Max everything is getting better!
Showing the options one has to deal with the situations presented is some S tier content. Really satisfying to visually show the conterplay to the scenarios people complain about. I feel like that's something no other FGC content creator has done yet. Inspiring stuff!
This is exactly the content that new players looking to take the next step and returning players trying to figure out what they're doing wrong absolutely need. Diaphone lowkey doing Gods work out here, you love to see it!
I get it, i understand why people get really mad when they lose a lot and start to vent on the lobby chat. I been there many times in other fighting games. The key is to remain calm and realize what you are doing wrong or not doing in a match then change it up. The problem is most people don't think this way and continue to do the wrong shit over and over, hence why they lose. When i start losing to a player, it's cuz he's too damn good and/or i start getting frustrated and start playing dumb. Best thing to do when you start getting mad is take a break and come back in 15 mins to an hour
It honestly doesn't surprise most of these players were higher rank, rookie ranks are so happy when they pull off just a target combo most of them don't even care if they win or lose. I think a lot of it is the frustration these players have with still having so much to learn even at high ranks.
The issue with Honda is most characters you have an exchange, I do this, they do that and eventually you get into it. With Honda you are always on the back foot because you spend your time countering him the whole match. There’s little in the way of mutual exchange, it’s “How do I stop his game plan?”
Hope you can do a follow up video for this. As someone who’s played SF for decades, I still have a lot to learn from experience and these videos help me understand “do’s” and “do not’s.”
TBH as someone who hasn't been able to put time into SF6 due to life, I had no idea burnout could backfire on people so bad. I get the feeling people just don't know that spamming meter literally makes your neutral game worse.
I think the most saltiest people aren't bad players. They're players who think they're better than they are, or rather they're losing to things that they feel are beneath them. Saltiest people I see in most fighting games are actually good, way better than I am usually but I manage to beat them with simple tactics and gimmicks that they weren't ready for. That really gets the rage going.
I've understood the concept of saying someone is worse then you after you just beat them. Like, did you just have a brain injury 4 seconds ago or what? "You're trash." "And you're on the ground."
Ayyyy the one I sent in made it. I didn't even watch that guys (Jamie who just wouldn't block) matches, I just was lurking while playing hub matches. Pretty sure you found the right match too because scrubquotes takes a couple days to post. This was a god-tier video idea
As someone who's new to fighting games, this has actually taught me so much about how I'm playing and what I can improve on! Cause I know I'm impatient and don't know spacing well, but this taught me a few things I should work on! And what I shouldn't do for some characters! So thank you for that!
As someone who this is their first street fighter ever and 2nd traditional fighting game ever, I just want to say that Modern is the main reason why I got the game and I’m having a blast. Modern has allowed people like me to get into the game and learn it a lot easier. I haven’t even touched ranked, I just like playing some casual matches once in a while. From my completely casual and limited perspective I think modern is fairly well balanced against classic, of course I could be VERY wrong but in the end it is up to capcom to balance it out. But for what Modern stands for, as a junior game designer I find it ingenious. Again it is the reason why I decided to buy SF6 in the first place and if other fighting games want to lower the barrier to entry for new players this is an amazing way to do so.
This is probably one of my favorite videos you’ve ever done. Really was educational entertaining and helped put things into perspective as someone who gets tilted on a regular basis
Wait look closely, the 2nd person was complaining about modern controls and how people using them should die in a well, but they were the only one using modern controls, bro just hates himself 😭😭
Subbed as of right now. GJ that was excellent. I like how you didn't just make fun of them and you instead showed them how they could have dealt with the situation and what they were doing wrong. I think you should 100% do a video like this once every 2 weeks. I know I would tune in every time. The way you present it is easy to digest,quick and to the point and offers ways to improve and learn. Please do more of these.
I don't even play sf, but this analysis was sick, entirely understood what you were talking about, and the visuals were awesome. Keep up the good work m8.
Edutainment pure and simple. I am not really competitive in Beat'em up games, but I like to watch. Solid video and that demo on dealing with Honda's air attacks is very useful!
@@willh7352 And yet here we are, I have come to regard Streetfighter as a beat'em up. You do the same thing, but in Streets of Rage, you tipically have to follow the arrow pointing Right!
Butt slam in a real game with different timing are VERY difficult to deal with. Honda and Blanka are characters I instantly mentally lose to when i see them on the screen
Thisbis the bes tatyle of this series I've seen so far. Show the mistake, and then show a proper response in an example afterwards with an explaination as to why it's better. Good work, di-in-a-pit-phone
Love the way you you edited in the ways to beat certain moves or the combos you can get from landing certain attacks. I support more vids like this lol.
Only on the 1st one, but this is a fantastic idea. It spins salt and provides high-level feedback with some great editing. Loving the streams and just found RUclips content. Keep it Up!
Great video I like it when you do stuff like this like the DSP video because you're fair about it and trying to teach and not just trying to dunk on the person.
I really like the video examples of what you're trying to explain. It's hard to know what "Crouching heavy punch into qcb kick" looks like on characters I haven't experimented with, so the visuals are neat and helpful
As for the weird inputs that guy was getting, it was most likely "lol online" weirdness. I know when me and my friends go watch our replays of online matches the input log will show some odd out of nowhere inputs that we know we didn't even press. This usually happens on 3-4 bar connections.
Episode 2 is out! ruclips.net/video/2_IkHgO_8hI/видео.html
This would be an absolutely fantastic series I thoroughly enjoyed this. As a total sf6 beginner I can actually use it as education for what not to do
Yoo same!
You can also look at this as effects of tilt/salt. On average people tend to take larger risks, play faster, and make more fringe reads when angry
Great video. I love the little cutaways with examples of better options.
Yes please, this is great content.
Yeah but my friends aren't fighter savvy to even understand what he is saying. "Mixup" "minus" "DI" "SPD" "footsies" can't go one sentence without throwing a tech term in

Ayyyy the one I sent in made it. I didn't even watch that guys (Jamie who just wouldn't block) matches, I just was lurking while playing hub matches. Pretty sure you found the right match too because scrubquotes takes a couple days to post. This was a god-tier video idea
This should be a series Dia, you might agree it's good content and good for your channel! :)
I enjoyed this more than I expected. I like the format and the edited-in parts where you show stuff in the lab right after.
As someone who's new to fighting games, this has actually taught me so much about how I'm playing and what I can improve on! Cause I know I'm impatient and don't know spacing well, but this taught me a few things I should work on! And what I shouldn't do for some characters! So thank you for that!
those cutaways to the lab are so helpful thats so cool thanks for including those
The replay featuring is the best, love being able to see what made people rage
As someone who this is their first street fighter ever and 2nd traditional fighting game ever, I just want to say that Modern is the main reason why I got the game and I’m having a blast.
Modern has allowed people like me to get into the game and learn it a lot easier. I haven’t even touched ranked, I just like playing some casual matches once in a while.
From my completely casual and limited perspective I think modern is fairly well balanced against classic, of course I could be VERY wrong but in the end it is up to capcom to balance it out.
But for what Modern stands for, as a junior game designer I find it ingenious. Again it is the reason why I decided to buy SF6 in the first place and if other fighting games want to lower the barrier to entry for new players this is an amazing way to do so.
These guys remind me of the Nago players that pop two times a round and then complain that he's weak
This is probably one of my favorite videos you’ve ever done. Really was educational entertaining and helped put things into perspective as someone who gets tilted on a regular basis
This was a really great video, with the training mode cut ins and the detective work 🤣 Would love to see more of this as a series
showing the 'right' examples inbetween was perfect in my opinion, great video
From a beginner, thank you. You're such a good SF6 content creator. Shoutout to all the coaches in the FGC
I really appreciate edits from training showing what you're discussing. Very helpful!
I don't know if scrub #4 knows he can just down-back to charge booms + flashkick.
He's always walking back to fire booms.
You (and your editor) make by far the most entertaining fighting game content on youtube. Big fan, keep it up!
Wait look closely, the 2nd person was complaining about modern controls and how people using them should die in a well, but they were the only one using modern controls, bro just hates himself 😭😭
Your content is so insanely high quality, the little cut-ins showing how to improve on these mistakes are amazing!
Subbed as of right now. GJ that was excellent. I like how you didn't just make fun of them and you instead showed them how they could have dealt with the situation and what they were doing wrong. I think you should 100% do a video like this once every 2 weeks. I know I would tune in every time. The way you present it is easy to digest,quick and to the point and offers ways to improve and learn. Please do more of these.
The Phoenix Wright music was perfect 🤣
I would love to see these as often as you can post them. Excellent!
I don't even play sf, but this analysis was sick, entirely understood what you were talking about, and the visuals were awesome. Keep up the good work m8.
Edutainment pure and simple. I am not really competitive in Beat'em up games, but I like to watch.
Solid video and that demo on dealing with Honda's air attacks is very useful!
Fighting* games
Beat Em Ups are games like Streets of Rage, Double Dragon, TMNT..
@@willh7352 And yet here we are, I have come to regard Streetfighter as a beat'em up. You do the same thing, but in Streets of Rage, you tipically have to follow the arrow pointing Right!
It may be unintentional but this is a really good eye into how a pro player might observe their own gameplay
Love you Diaphone
looking forward to part2 of this after u win evo! Best of luck this weekend
LOVE this concept! Would love to see more!
Butt slam in a real game with different timing are VERY difficult to deal with. Honda and Blanka are characters I instantly mentally lose to when i see them on the screen
Love your edits with the training room mid commentary!
Maybe "die in a pit" guy is an old school Pit Fighter player.
or a MK player
Thank you algorithm for recommending this video. Looking forward to watching more
Very fun investigative work men! And I also learned a few stuff. This should be a regular series.
Love it, would love this to be a series ❤ keep up the awesome work
This was a pretty good idea, good stuff Dia
Honestly brother this format is really well done
Nobody cares, but this is the video that got me to sub. The quick cuts to demo to show in real time what you were explaining. That's quality content.
Thisbis the bes tatyle of this series I've seen so far. Show the mistake, and then show a proper response in an example afterwards with an explaination as to why it's better. Good work, di-in-a-pit-phone
This was awesome. Showing the possible answers was very useful.
Love the explanation intermediate sequences. Great content.
Please make this a series. You have to! This is content goldmine!
This is an awesome video format never thought to look through someones stuff from their name. sick
this was hilarious but also crazy informative! I love how you put a video example of stuff you're talking about!
Please please make this an ongoing series. I've subscribed because this idea alone is too good. Loved it.
the constant fight about classic and modern controlls is a proof that we need those juicy dynamic controlls
Love the way you you edited in the ways to beat certain moves or the combos you can get from landing certain attacks. I support more vids like this lol.
Only on the 1st one, but this is a fantastic idea. It spins salt and provides high-level feedback with some great editing. Loving the streams and just found RUclips content. Keep it Up!
"Very poor decision-making... guy never blocks."
I feel personally attacked.
Great video I like it when you do stuff like this like the DSP video because you're fair about it and trying to teach and not just trying to dunk on the person.
I really like the video examples of what you're trying to explain. It's hard to know what "Crouching heavy punch into qcb kick" looks like on characters I haven't experimented with, so the visuals are neat and helpful
Dude it's legit weird seeing a modern controls player screaming about classic. It's always the other way around normally.
As for the weird inputs that guy was getting, it was most likely "lol online" weirdness. I know when me and my friends go watch our replays of online matches the input log will show some odd out of nowhere inputs that we know we didn't even press. This usually happens on 3-4 bar connections.
Some people are also just mashing buttons while knocked down
Diaphone, this is gold content 🤣 funny and educational, more scrubs plz
