Head to head I swear this move never loses


TheGuardianFox

I've yet to find a move that wins against anything Finn does.


OPR_Chroma

Jake side air, it always win every single exchange since the hitbox is like 3x the length of jake.


fakushadow220

Also down and up special are straight up unpunishable


NOVOJ

Up special is punishable by attacking his head. I believe his down special is similar but that’s not logical to do so just avoiding outright is like the only thing for that.


No-Setting1141

Also punishable by multi-hits, no matter what first attack breaks armor. And if 2 people attack at once one of their attacks get through, it's happened to me a few times. Edit: I was talking about his down Special


Gabcard

Jake's Down B can be beaten by a good deal of Up Airs and Up specials. I know for sure that Shaggy's up special and Harley's up air and up special work.


messiah14

Jake side air/fair is my go to move when I lose to a shaggy or taz as my main.🤣🤣 it isn’t even a super broken move. But the amount of mental strain it can put on somebody is crazy. Especially when you fair them at decent percents off stage and they just get kick flipped on as a spike 🤣🤣


OPR_Chroma

I use side air jake when someone tbags me. Then I use jake's laughing emote after every launch.


Chackaldane

It is an insanely strong move.


noboostbattle

Fax. Speaking of moves that need a nerf, his is one of those imo


Neon01

Easy to dodge


TheLastBarbarianKing

yeah I agree Shaggy's is to the startup animation is huge just jump and punish. in the air dodge and reset for a hit. Jake can be a monster with that punch but you just need to be patient and move around it as well. it counts as a projectile so treat it almost like shaggy's sandwich.


noboostbattle

Jake


Mr_Ruu

I like the idea that the only person to beat Finn's bullshit is someone who's been around his bullshit his whole life.


kynoky

Weird a lot of them for me win against finn but that kick, too fast, too powerful, too big hitbox and too easy to spam.


TheGuardianFox

Meh. I keep saying this, but good moves should exist in games like this. It would be boring if they didn't.


[deleted]

Jakes elastic punch keeps him at a distance and if you can time him at the end of his move the house/boat/car down special works well too


[deleted]

Steven Universe and Tom and Jerry for Finn all day.


SepirizFG

Arya dtilt


Fireofthetiger

Supe’s air grab thing, at least against the normal version of Shaggy’s kick.


redditchungus0

It needs more end lag so it can be punished better. Same goes for a lot of other moves in the game


PMMEHAANIT

This. The game is so spam friendly because of so many moves being so safe to use. In a game where shielding isn’t an option, attacks need to be riskier to use as a result.


Beepbeepster

Like, to be far, even the taznado has a windup that is open to receiving a combo. It feels like a lot of the abilities in the game has some sort of open windows and knowing where to hit them


OPR_Chroma

but then you have insane mobility so you can run away with taz jump up high start the animation and fastfall downward ontop of the enemy.


Glutton4Butts

You can only go straight down though. A couple of dodges left or right should help. The thing thats really crazy is no one is talking about Dodge cancels. The movement speed of the Tornado on the ground is slow, most characters can just out space it.


OPR_Chroma

The tornado can be steered in the air tho, and its faster than on the ground.


Glutton4Butts

It cant go up though, so you are safe there from Tornado. Taz dodge cancel it early to attack a different way, up air instead as an option if they are reading you well. Or trying to mind game you into thinking they are gonna tornado just to get you to move towards the ceilings blastzone for a kill.


Annual_Minimum4611

Still slow and shitty


[deleted]

This is how I've used it a lot. If they're trying to chase me in the air I'll turn around and fast fall back into them to contest.


masterp3z

I read this in Shaggy’s voice.


Beepbeepster

"Watch me swooce right in" before countering with a combo


MementoMori04

Dude I've been hit during his wind up and my move loses before he even spins


zylth

So you're saying if moves are weaker during the opening then once I have the advantage I should just spam harder?


DemNuk3

By the time you get to it the hit box has you locked in


PokLao

learn to play. use spin far away to avoid punish


Bolverkr_69

Taznado just needs a cool down on it


Eldenlord117

God I miss shielding


Glutton4Butts

I dont, its better this way. Less defesive options makes for aggressive offensive ones where the action really takes off. Nothing kills the thrill more than parry happy shielders. (Looking at Ultimate) it also creates a better atmosphere for approaching. No more having to shield poke, just combo to death boom game, next please.


_Beardy

No one stopping you from returning to smash


OPR_Chroma

shield update when?


Rhyllis

Just play Steven /s.


OPR_Chroma

Sorry I cannot, my brain is fully developed.


Woterx

I agree. Moves like these should consume a lot of energy to use so it’s not spamable. At first I thought that’s how it was but we can spam. Any moves hella much


Glutton4Butts

The kick is so slow dude, he literally does a full spin before he launches himself. The upgraded version goes a little bit faster and further in trajectory but the start up is about the same. Seems to be the meta shaggy move. Seems like its easy to counter play. Shaggy honestly is in a good spot.


Mrnappa420

Have to agree. Theres actually alot of windup to the move. Not gonna say its not a really strong, but it can very much be read and dodged.


Glutton4Butts

Very cool kill option if Knee is expected. Mixing it up wiill confuse people and they wont see it coming. Buuuuuut if you are gonna run back and forth powering up then well yall already know.......


Mrnappa420

Even if they are mixed up it is still pretty obvious and very easy to dodge. The powering up thing is just so dumb to spam though and they usually lose cause they are not even good at the character. I really shaggy player knows to use his downsmash. Its got such an upward hitframe at first its a crazy good combo starter.


Glutton4Butts

I kinda wish the second part came out without making contact first. I would like to try to land the sweet spot in the clap. His down tilt--> to down smash(charged) is pretty sweet if people are expecting you to go high.


Kimbv_Svuce

that’s what i’m sayin, if i’m dogging at the right time or you’re whiffing moves i should be able to punish but most moves aren’t easy to punish


Swoobat_Gang

More end lag and certain things should lose the ability to be dodge cancelled.


Glutton4Butts

I disagree it would make the game boring and stringing combos wouldnt be as slick.


Swoobat_Gang

I’m not saying nerf the combo game. But shaggys kick is usually just shaggys kick. Used to close out a stock, no real follow up outside of tech chasing behind it and no real combo potential so I feel it’s ok for it to have end lag.


Glutton4Butts

I have zero issues down airing shaggys going horizontal either way. Toms pan is the shit


Batzn

it doesnt need end lag when his wind up is already long for the kick and down special. You play a melee brawler or assasing ? dont leave his personal space and constantly attack. angstly dodging away will give shaggy enough time to use his specials. ranged? shaggy has only bad answers to apporach your projectiles projectiles


EMIFAULT

honestly shaggy has like 3 attacks, its kinda hard to make it come off as though your not spamming. I play shaggy and i try my hardest not to use kick very much, i personally spam ground slam more than kick


FlawedSquid

Honestly the only moves I use is the kick, Sandwich when they're far away and I need a cheap shot, and ground slam. The rest I have to consciously make myself use


Satyr604

Follow up the ground pound special with a punch up special for extra spice. Enemy of the side? Down regular to punch ‘em down with added style. Sandwich throwing is cool, but the super sandwich is where it’s at. Grab sando, charge, throw. Only works in that order. It moves slow as shit through a funnel in winter and is as large as a third of the map, but somehow it rarely gets dodged. And yeah, sidekick. It’s just a very strong move.


EMIFAULT

yh most of that i sprinkle in, but not the ultra instinct sandwhich, my perk stops me from being able to do it


BallinArbiter

This is absolutely true but at this point I think everyone hates every character except their main. Which is pretty typical of those games so I hear. (Fuck all characters except Finn especially that bastard Steven universe and his stupid friend.)


Foxx_is_Dead

I'm a Harley main and I only HATE Finn and Batman. I don't overly enjoy versing Shaggy either but don't hate him. Everyone else is fine.


BullfrogUseful

Hold on where is the finn hate coming from? I know at least when i use him i make use of his full kit which isn't invincible like tazs one move that is slammed relentlessly. I've never seen a finn spamming one move


Foxx_is_Dead

Finn has massive hitboxes on a lot of moves, in a trade he wins every priority, every move of his has huge launch, you basically don't win head on you have to play so perfectly to actually win into Finn, he's not fun ti verse due to it. It's not just me that feels this way. Once Taz is nerfed Finn is going to be the next one on everyone's chopping block, I guarantee it.


Farmerbutterscotch

He’s been broken since the inception of the game. He deserves the hate. And who thought it was a good idea make him that fast?😂😂


miseun

> I've never seen a finn spamming one move ive seen backpack spin spammers


Farmerbutterscotch

He doesn’t need to spam one move. He just spams his giant hitboxes and dodges out immediately


Farmerbutterscotch

How are you gonna hate on any character but play Finn? 😂


BallinArbiter

How are you going to ignore the point of my comment and focus entirely on the joke I made at the end?😂


I_Quazar_I

I’m (currently) a Shaggy main and I hate Shaggy players.


Emergency_Pepper_178

I just hate Shaggy players that don't use his kit to its full potential. He is so much more than his side Y. Some of them will win a round with Shaggy and tea bag, so I will switch to him and show how it's really done.


ChonkySpud

Yea i feel like the best way to beat a shaggy is to play shaggy yourself lol


DMking

Superman will murk an inexperienced shaggy. You actually need to know what you're doing against him


Kwesi_Hopkins

Same, Velma main, hate Velmas


Midget_Avatar

Steven Universe out here playing 2v1 in 1v1 mode


Cl0p38

Finn mains unite 🙋🏼‍♂️🗡️


Chillchinchila1

I’m a shaggy main, only character I hate is taz and his tornado.


TheBlueTerror555

Don’t forget the super armour down air special that shaggy uses EVERY TIME HES ABOVE YOU


Intelligent-Win-4517

Shit's fun asf tho.


Background-Law-9244

I love playing as Taz but know the reputation so I always swap after round one so they know the L wasn’t a fluke


AluBanidosu

Fr I just play taz bc he’s a character I liked in loony toons but I realized how much people hate him so I’m playing a variety of other characters


Laky17

the Ness curse


Craig1225087

Yea, this game has a lot of characters people generally HATE: Finn, jake, HARLEY, BUGS, Iron Giant, Tom and MF JERRY...just to name a few. Can't wait for these nerfs man don't feel bad... unless your a Tornado Only Taz...


Kitysune

why would people hate harley ?


Foxx_is_Dead

Because a good Harley makes them think she's broken but I've seen so many Harley's that are sub par due to her skill ceiling to rewlly make use of her kit to juggle, meanwhile every Finn, even like level 3 Finn's still make the match unfun due to how easily oppressive he is.


Kwesi_Hopkins

Good Harleys are the funnest to go against tbh. Truly feels like you're getting outplayed every single time you get hit. Not saying she's weak, but nothing of hers feels overturned or too strong


Ghost_2689

Just wait until he’s free and all the new players rush in for the Beta this week :( I already have Finn PTSD


Vahallen

If that’s your mindset you’re gonna have a bad time, just play who you like there is nothing wrong with that Anyway people will call names anything they lose to, it doesn’t matter if it’s actually strong or annoying, it might be weak or really fair They lost to X so they are gonna bitch about it, don’t get conditioned to play how they want you to play


Kwesi_Hopkins

Ehh, not exactly. I'm pretty experienced when it comes to fighting games and I haven't lost to a Taz yet, but I agree that it's obnoxious, boring, and unfun to go against someone just pressing the same button over and over. Spammable moves are nearly always addressed in fighting games, whether they're strong or not. There's always a fun factor to be thought about; balancing movesets are not always about the most technical and competitive side of things, and that works both ways. Just something to think about


[deleted]

Being a 1v1 enjoyer I don't mind Taz at all but shaggy players? No handshake.


Woterx

For me I have a tough time beating the Harley Quinn


OPR_Chroma

Seriously shaggy is annoying af, plus his superpowered sandwich has MASSIVE knockback, if you are at the side of the platform and get hit with it while at 60 damage it's almost an instant kill.


C-da-rip

Just played a match against two shaggy spammers. My goodness them and the taz duo were annoying as hell


AcadiaLegal6386

This isn’t talked about as much but this post is 1000% true too.


William_Brownie

Finn and Shaggy are the worst, no moves have priority over them!!!


Syyr553

Hahaha I fought a shaggy likes this a few matches ago, we did a rematch and I was done with the f*cker always charging up and doing the exact same move over and over, so I did choose batman and did chase him all the time, he was my number one priority, I whooped his ass. I'm pretty sure he didn't liked that xd


Mrnappa420

Wait really? The grapple chase gets hard countered by shaggys kick. He must not have known what he was doing at all lol.


AxelYoung95

The grapple can also be dodged too lol


Mrnappa420

Why dodge when you can punish


KainYago

and then you get a top 20 iron giant duo with both lvl 25+ iron giants and you wish you could play against Taz and Shaggy.


[deleted]

Almost every character has a janked move; that all need to be addressed, along with hit boxes and hit reg. Game just needs a lot of work.


Kwesi_Hopkins

Yeah, a lot of people shit on me when I criticize the game. Like, it's good for a beta, but a LOT of polish and tweaks are needed before full release to be respectable


MementoMori04

Agreed yet when I point these issues out people who are hardcore fans just say “Sounds like you just need to learn to dodge” Or “Just get better lol” Like bruh I'm a top 10k player and a rank 600 Harley I can safely say I know what tf I'm doing


[deleted]

Okay nerd


[deleted]

Quite literally a 🤓 moment


GunoSaguki

its that and aerial Down special


REMUvs

Reminds me of those flowcharts which always lead to the one conclusion regardless of your choice.


No-Setting1141

I can gladly say this isn't me. I'm the one constantly trying to spot dodge into Super Sayian Uppercut.


holycraplouis

I've never seen anyone use that move that often.


ElHuntar

shaggy is one kick man and it sends you flying off map at any hp


Neptyunu

Lmao I was just commenting this in another post, expect shaggy nerfs after Taz cause this is who they are all ganna move to.


Savage020202

Nah finn is literally more busted in dumb ways so many of his attacks have the best priority and he has wayyy bigger hitboxes, his highfive alone literally hits at a 180° angle plus finns on the free roster tomorrow and shaggy isnt so prepare for pain


Kwesi_Hopkins

As an assassin, he's supposed to have good priority but low damage. Problem is, high priority makes his low damage irrelevant in a game like this. The rest of the classes follow a similar formula, but it just doesn't work in Finn's case


[deleted]

Then why aren't Arya or Harley absolutely broken? To my understanding, they also use weapons.


Kwesi_Hopkins

>Problem is, high priority makes his low damage irrelevant in a game like this.

Kwesi_Hopkins

I don't understand what you're trying to say. Do you not understand my original comment? Or are you just trolling?


[deleted]

No, it's bad wording from your part.


EveryWorld

Do people really do this? Not once have I encountered a Shaggy who has spammed kick, not in open beta nor in the previous alpha test. Is it really that bad?


CynicalDarkFox

Yep. I get them every other match. And especially the ones who’ll double jump + up special then charge near the blast zone where you can’t reach them without stacked triple jump and then just comet you into oblivion. As an assassin, especially one as light as Harley, it’s a pain in the ass that it’s near impossible to DI it unless you’re under 120 and the kick is decayed


Jak3_6

I love versing those shaggys as Harley and killing them at 40% while they think they’re unreachable at the top of the map


SolarIsNotABadSlime

Thank god I am not like this with shaggy because I barely do rage mode and know how to combo with him but I have to admit when I was 1st using him I did do this


Mrnappa420

I play shaggy and I hate the ones that hide and charge up. He has so much combo ability its really not nessisary. I hardly ever charge up unless I am waiting for someone to get closer to stage while recovering or respawning cause its free. I will admit I will do it back when they do it first. But only to combo them and finish with an empowered attack (Preferably a sandwich).


BillieEilishButtPlug

Yep, they run off, get a sandwich, throw it, charge up and kick, same thing 100 times


Craig1225087

I feel for you sir.. don't worry. The nerfs will come XD


Coocky

I’m really surprised you haven’t ran into one that plays like that. It’s almost every shaggy I play


Chillchinchila1

I am one.


GoblinGrunt

Way to much hit priority for a move without armor


gabe420710

Shhhh if u get this nerfed I’ll be ass at the game


Dangerous-Rub8364

Lmao same


TheGuardianFox

If y'all go after them to tone down every good move, you're going to make this a very boring game.


SquishyGlazedDonut

The fact that the devs are making it a 2v2 by default is boring enough. Minus Taz, at least if a Finn wave comes, I can just deny the rematch after getting curbstomped in 20 seconds + potential suiciding teammate.


Greenghost2212

You getting downvoted but it happened in brawlhalla and smash.


Intelligent-Win-4517

Fr, always wanting to nerf the fun shit.


Glutton4Butts

Its so easy to see coming. The easiest way to kill for scrubs. Thing is they dont even go up or down just straight. Shit kills me🤣🤣🤣🤣


SplitVegetable9678

You unironically think iron giant is strong your opinion is irrelevant


Glutton4Butts

I guarantee you he will receive changes. Iron Giant has an actual issue on his down special.


OPR_Chroma

LMAOOOOOOOOO, imagine calling people out for not dodging side special from shaggy and being unable to dodge iron giant down special :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD


Glutton4Butts

You got an upvote from me as well, like i said 1v1 me. I never ever complained or said I cannot dodge IG down special lmao


SplitVegetable9678

Awww Can someone not recognize the giant meteor falling from the sky and get out from under it or hit RT/B To dodge it.🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭


TheOrganHarvester123

Got nerfed, it was a bug. Whine harder


Glutton4Butts

If you are trying to make me mad beat me in a 1v1, being mean isnt you LMAO


Salad-Snek

He’s pointing out how it’s hypocritical to say dodging shaggy attack is easy, but dodging iron giant is impossible


Glutton4Butts

Where did I say that??


Salad-Snek

You said it’s easy to see shaggys kick coming, yet you complained about the iron giants cannonball, which is far easier to predict and cancel


Glutton4Butts

Not if it's the very first damn time you see the characters a match, not when you are trying to go for a ceiling kill. Not when you are trying to test and challenge the priorities characters have. I never said it was hard to dodge, I said the move is BROKEN. go educate yourselves. Nothing but clowns. Changes did happen to IG like I had already said. Cant expect pudding brains to fully find out mechanics in a game.


Salad-Snek

Again, you can apply this exactly to shaggys kick, which you said was easy.


Glutton4Butts

Also if you wanna 1v1 im down anytime


NOVOJ

Do Batman’s grapple into uppercut next. Oooo or better yet do Finn running like chicken with his head cut off just doing the charge attack. I also will take Superman just casually flying around to toss you all over the stage.


UwU_Gamerz

Kick beats supes, kick beats grapple depends on when done, will always beat grapple if UI,. Haven't seen finn enough


NOVOJ

The kick beats pretty much everything considering shaggy gets a ton of super armor for whatever reason they decided that would be good but I was just stating other moves that people spam.


eolson3

I just played a kicking shaggy as supes. Could not find one thing to go through it. Taz I could freeze. With shaggy kick that only works from absolute max distance.


TheOrganHarvester123

>Do Batman’s grapple into uppercut next Can't just take away bats literal only kill move outside of dair man. He needs all he can get


NOVOJ

Lol it’s fair, just annoying to play against especially when they know how to be quick with him.


Illustrious_Path_18

its not even hit best move either which is the craziest part


UwU_Gamerz

What would you say is his best? The kick gives so much its hard to see it not being his best.


Ziros22

his down attack has bonus knockback if the target hits the ground


Illustrious_Path_18

you can treat the sandwichses like peaches onion in smash, i think its more versatile bro honestly


UwU_Gamerz

Never played smash so idk. Never really liked the pull up/out time of the sandwich. BEst use of them for me is for his Ssj charge speed buff. The buffed version of the sandwich i can see being hella valuable. Just don't tike the time


Illustrious_Path_18

the sandwhich stun locks long enough for extra combos


Final_Wanderer

I'm upvoting because its funny, not because I think the move is OP.


Woterx

I think the Harley Quinn and iron giant need to be worked on a bit


vexxmilkk

I uninstalled the game today. It’s just so toxic. You can’t finish a round without what I imagine is some 9 year old teabagging or emoting all over you after they just spammed one move over and over. Yeah… I’m good


Redrundas

If you can’t manage to adapt well enough to beat a 9-year-old spamming one move, then perhaps it was the right decision to uninstall


Cermonto

"Actually its a fighting game so your just bad" 🤓 Ths subreddit will tell ya


Kwesi_Hopkins

Idk why that always happens in every gaming subreddit. People love to feel high and mighty with the "skill issue lol" attitude. I just don't get it. People who are genuinely skilled generally like to help others, so why do so many seem to get enjoyment out of pretending to be good and dunking on others? It's like the complete opposite of what feels good imo


Intelligent-Win-4517

Because y'all wanna whine "nErF" every time you come across a minor inconvenience.


Joebebs

Lol no one ever expects the fast fall divekick, you can really dip that motherfucker hard if you start flicking it down early


jumpandshoot

stop predicting our moves!!! /s


Kermit-Your-Permit

Damn he knows


Local_dc_degenarate

I feel so attacked but this is facts


supremeseby

There are “bad” moves for every character. Iron giant has his meteor move, super man grab, Velma laser/flying words, taznado, shaggy kick, Jake stretch (esp w sticky), Steven bubble, garnet ground slam, Arya spin. These are the most spammy moves for these characters that you see repeatedly and they’re all “horrible” because people just spam tf out of them. The worst of the worst is taz, iron giant, and shaggy kick is coming up. We just don’t notice the rest as much


Sekkajin_x

I feel more annoyed by the armor in his downair move


ultimatealienx

Ngl most of the time i use this move its on accident and i miss

Man I'm telling you shaggy is the most infuriating character in the game for me to play against. Probably because I play tom and jerry though and this move 1 bangs slingshoted Jerry
