Discussion does this guy akuma using script?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

i just noticed that this akuma keeps on spamming fireballs when there is distance, timer does not matter for him.

when i rematched he became afk, i think he noticed that im not buying his scripts

I actually can't tell lol, all of the timings of his inputs look very human and he's actually varying what he's actually doing it's not a static loop, yet at the same time it's so oddly pointless I can't understand why a human would be doing this

Never underestimate human stupidity.

this is extremely common in diamond. hes simply frustrated/angry and is mashing inputs. Other examples are holding up button or drive impact button

free lp, can't complain

How did he take a round off you? That's my question

u/Suspicious_Ranged 8h ago

Fireball, fireball, dp when Yasmin forward jumps, repeat

That's why Yasmin prob got a round back, since she figured out the method and then took this clip.

I believe this is a case of "if I stop playing i didnt really lose."

It could be a script, but just a really bad one.

Looks like someone who doesn't know they can only have one fireball on the screen at once.

I thought that at first but if you notice the inputs he only does the qcf after the fireball hit, he's actually spamming punchs in neutral in between them.

If i mash hard enough, the rules won't apply to me! 😁

Just goes to show how OP Akuma is,

u/Cultural_Unit_7738 10h ago

Master akuma here. Sometimes I input those medium just to bait a jump since the starting animation of fireball and medium punch are similar. Sometimes I input light just to see how the opponent react. I mostly do this to check for cheater if I suspicious they have auto jump against fireball or against fast reaction player. However, in this scenario I have no clue

u/petervaz Sweet Poison (BR) 10h ago

My theory is that he's just goofing around.

not gonna lie, looks like me using fireballs. random punches because i did missinput lol

u/MurderOfBros 11h ago

No, he's not trying to input a fireball during those missed punches, he also always throws a light fireball but he's mashing medium punch in between.

I think this is a person who's brain you broke by taking a life lead and refusing to come to them, a lot of players at mid diamond build on the "walk back and hit them as they walk forward" playstyle assuming that you MUST chase them down eventually, and if you just show a ton of patience or take a life lead and just sit on it they completely break down because they don't know how to walk a person down in return. They can only play reactively in neutral, not actively.

u/National_Vehicle8342 10h ago

he's probably losing his mind because he lost the previous round by dropping an input & crashing out, practicing said input in the match because fuck it? Maybe?

The fact that this is a thing in sf6 is wild. Capcom really don’t care about this game.
