uhhhhhhgggghhhhhh help how do i not be trash at fighting games

i straight up like cannot move my fingers fast enough to use the stick for movement i have to use the dpad if i want to be able to dash lmao

@rixkey Practice defending before you practice attacking. That's my best advice, because most fighting games are about waiting your turn and you get punished severely for skipping in line.

@rixkey A dear friend of mine helped me realize that and every game from Tekken 7 to Dragonball FighterZ became less about high execution and more just figuring out what was an overhead, middle, or low and responding accordingly!

@rixkey Nooo problem at all! I empathize with you heavily when it comes to fighting games and 'moving fast enough', but now that execution is becoming less important with auto-combos and longer frame links, fighting games emphasize strategy more than if your controller is broken just enough to allow for wavedashing or some nonsense.

@rixkey I played a bunch of them a lot and watched good streamers and tournaments. Sonicfox is good and maximilian dood can be educational.
