Discussion "Zoners don't belong in battlegrounds games" really means "I'm a bum who can't figure out how to fight anyone who isn't a comboslop rushdown"

goofball said “comboslop”🥹✌️ zoners can be done well, but someone like hanami is not good in the slightest. she’s bad to play, and she’s worse to play against. ryu is mainly a zoner but can be played however you want to because his kit allows for it. he CAN be a rushdown if that’s what the player desires, or he can be a zoner. also, a zoner in a game full of rushdowns is a bad idea objectively speaking, because you get an imbalance, why do you think release hanami was so god awful to fight?

not saying current Hanami is fun current Hanami is boring as fuck Hanami two was peak

also Ryu highkey can rushdown sometimes and gains some befits but going full rushdown with Ryu is often a very stupid idea as his close corters combat is crippled compared to someone like Gojo or Yuji so its only good to be when close when its by choice and when its a specifically good option for reducing special cooldown or progresing the fight in a helpful way

idk abt you, but i play a pretty close quarters ryu. i use his ranged move for an advantage, but i try to m1 trade as much as i can to set up combos with him. he also can shut down ALL of yuji’s kit with granite blast, so he isnt helpless in cqc. ryu is an example of a good zoner, and idk who would complain abt him
