Here at toptier, we’ve already covered the basics of building a gameplan in a fighting game. However, once you get past the basics, the complexity seems to ramp up to an inordinate degree. How do you know which attacks to use as blockstrings or projectile traps? Which of your opponent’s options should you encourage them to use and which should you discourage? It’s very easy to feel as though you’re being buried under an avalanche of frame data, situational variance, and potential attack patterns.
To help cut through some of these complications, Stephen “Sajam” Lyon made a new video in which he demonstrates the nuts and bolts of translating a strategic gameplan into practicable tactics. Using Percival in Granblue Fantasy Versus, he shows how to turn a single poke into an entire branching path of offense. Whether you’re a competitor who’s looking to grow or a fan who wants to deepen your appreciation for the incredible depth of fighting games, the entire video is well worth a watch. Check it out below, then follow Lyon on YouTube, Twitter, and Twitch to get more of his super-sharp observations.
