I wonder how far he got in the rankings in the harder Sf V? Oh right, not very far. He ragequit SF V

They AGGREE....REEE with me.

What the FGC is probably saying: all the new characters show a clear and present issue with balance and power creep the developers didn't anticipate and should go back to the drawing board to level out the playing field for fair and balanced gameplay.
What Piggy sez: I wanna sealclub shitskinned thirdworlders who play with madcatz gamecube controllers using internet provided by Unicef.

Also his entire complaint about street fighter 6 boils down to him wanting to get cheap wins against players who don't know what they're doing. That's literally all he's saying. If players are able to take info that's freely available on the internet for anyone to use and beat Phil, than maybe they're just the better player? Phil even admits he watches tutorials and tech videos also so he's part of the problem he's trying to create.

Edit: And just Suikoden sperging for anyone not in the know;
You may see people say Suikoden 1 is easy and short, and it is, I'd like to think Konami was trying something new and so were just kinda winging it. But it's easy, because the idea of building a castle with different NPCs with different jobs, means you have everything you need in a central space. You have the Inn to heal/save, you have the shops which will carry anything you see in other shops, you have the blacksmiths to upgrade your weapons, and you have Gaspar (or other gamblers) which you can save scum into infinite money. Sure exp and levels are important, but you can outfit anyone in your party without leaving the castle; and leveling weapons to the higher levels get really expensive, especially when you have six characters in your group, and certain ones you'd never think of using are forced into your party in a late game dungeon (like Krin). It requires a lot of in game money, but in every game you have your infinite money NPC there, ready to finance your entire war effort, all you need to do is save scum a bit; and Phil loves his game from his childhood, but can't remember the most basic part of it.

Having now beaten them all except 2 I can say the hardest boss or segment of any Suikoden game is the fucking menus

Not even 5 made it fully bearable

At least the remaster lets you equip a party member from any current member’s inventory. But you still just can’t store shit in Party Items for some reason. Someone on that dev team was a fucking trainspotter.

The thing I don’t understand about his gripe is the internet has been around for a while now. It’s not like metas just started emerging recently. He just doesn’t like it now because he sucks ass and has nothing left to blame.

Not to mention he hides in casuals on SF6 and when he DID get bullied into playing ranked, he rarely got past 1500MR (which is the starting point)

And the good old GameFAQs forums had all the move lists and meta discussion for all the games he played back then. Thats besides all the forums for the specific games. Playing completively just had no money in it, so not many people cared.

Only reason Phil even placed at all was because he's one of the few tards who didn't know how credit works and was willing to piss away money.

Precisely. Phil seems to be forgetting that actually consistently executing the inputs required for combos matters just as much if not much more than "knowing the meta", because what's the point of looking up videos if you can't pull off what you're looking at?

And before that you had magazines. I still have a SF2T guidebook laying around that gives you all the cheap combos and strategies.

In Phil's dented world, it's not enough to beat him. You have to beat him "the right way". A way which doesn't embarrass him and make him look like the coping retard he is. No throw loops, no corner traps, no DR extensions, no long combos, no pattern setups. You have to "impress him".

Of course he doesn't realize that the reason he gets wrecked is because he gets downloaded. He thinks his play is unique and intelligent, even when every single good player he goes against in any game realizes he struggles to block low.

He's better than the average player that much is true. You don't get to Master without being at least okay at the game. But against real competition he's a pushover because his mental is so weak. It's ironic he complains about pattern play because watching actual good players against him shows just how much he plays on automatic. That SF6 dhalsim mirror a while ago really demonstrated the difference.

He could seriously benefit from doing combo practice in training mode for a few hours every week, like land the combo fifteen times in a row or start again. Put that in the schedule. He could have a chill QnA begging stream while he did it but his ego would never let him as he insists his inputs are frame perfect. He's so bad, like at one point he couldn't consistently do DP motions from the right side of the screen. He insisted it was the game but I have my doubts and that's so sloppy from an "ex pro fighting game player". It's no wonder he hates fighting games with high skill ceiling combo inputs.
Related, one of the things that gets me MATI about him is when he drops a move and *looks down at the controller confused* because you just know he was pulling that shit in the arcades way back when. It's such a passive-aggressive dickhead move and it's straight up insulting to the other player.

Cause Phil was only ever able to do well in tournaments when information was harder to get. Which is why he could do well in regionals but got bodied anytime he got around people who were as dedicated but also were way more skilled.

At least before Phil let his brain atrophy for 20 years with booze and vidja he was able to knuckle down and memorize shit when he put his mind to it. So I think in his mind the information being more easily accessible is basically cheating if they didn't have to go through "da struggle" like he did. Which he'll never do now since he treats every fighting game like it's Street Fighter II and refuses to learn anything about new versions.

 

[BPD Gunt Rider]

TBH I would be very curious to see how DSP would do at poker. He's good at lying but does he have a poker face?

Phil has said he tried poker in casinos and was terrible at it. He doesn't even know basic blackjack strategy, so he's probably terrible at poker math to begin with.

Patterns. Obviously, the people who beat him learned the moves and now are just repeatedly mashing him. Nothing he could do, he is trying to use his brain but brainless morons constantly counter him with their button mashing pattern play.

I think this is one of the main reasons so many people just don't like phil. Growing up we all knew that kid who was miserable to play video games with- if he lost it was always because the controller is messed up, the game was glitching, he has a headache, he just ate so he's hands are slippery, etc but when he wins, he's the greatest player ever and he'll brag constantly about how good he is. People see phil raging at games and blaming everything but himself and he perfectly embodies the kid we all hated growing up.

The thing is the kid we all knew acting like that probably grew out of it by the time he was in his early teens, phil is in his 40s and still acts like an entitled child playing video games. Its just so easy to not like Phil, and this isn't even touching on all the dishonesty and stuff like that.

He's a hypocrite too because he used to post his own strategy videos for new fighting games.

Definition of the scrub mentality.

At one point Phil had already qualified for EVO but kept using credits cards to travel and play at extra tournaments, for no real reason. Addictive behavior.

I also say it’s his lack of empathy. I remember one guy sent a super chat saying “he was scared his friend could have been hurt in a shooting in his home town”. Phil did his hollow “thinks for the super chat”, ignore the message, then started to talk about his NEW AND IMPROVE SET UP. it’s like the food bank where he was complaining about it. Really Phil? Making fun of the hungry is cold hearted and makes him looks like an self centered asshole. Phil grew up getting everything he wanted besides the Wolverine action figure and he still hates his parents over it.
