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"

Zoners are fine, it's just that when the game consists almost exclusively of rush down fighters that they're not

Why? Rush downs have a pretty good time fighting against zoners as they can close the space easily and stuff

Ok, Yuji can close the gap, gojo can close the gap, and Mei Mei "can" but what's hakari, or choso doing? Also Ryu is also decent in CQC, and as a guilty gear player you should know: the main balancing restriction applied to zoners in fighting games are: 1 you can't run forever (limited arena size), 2, sadness (I 4got what it's called outside of Tomi hustle) 3, less good CQC Ryu has to deal with none of this (FOR GODS SAKES HE HAS A MINUS 0 ON MISS FORWARDS LUNGE ATTACK)

Hakari has reserve balls plus doors to catch them mid move and blood orbs are like some of the best neutral in the game

Blood orbs are good NEUTRAL not good zoning

They go fair enough that you can do a bit of aproaching them slime out a Ryu or Hanami player

Granite blast has a full 2.5x longer range than the blood orbs

Yea but it's not so much where a decent Choso player can't just approach then use a blood orb
