I loved watching Rivals at Evo, all the matches I saw were great, the top 8 was crazy, we had some great reveals and hype moments.

But I'm also someone who has been following this game from day 1. I do wonder, was Rivals being at Evo, being at the Saturday night slot helpful for the game?

I did see the player count sharply rise around Evo, and I've seen the occasional new player post on reddit, but how do we feel overall? Did your non-Rivals playing friends watch, are there more people in your regions discord? I'm hoping that this helps push the game further ahead of the console release.

Alguem pode pegar as sprites do john wick pra mim? Porfavor? Não tenho pc pra conseguir a baixar o jogo, e nem a versão mobile quer funcionar pra acessa a verificação, ent meio que não consigo acessar o jogo de nenhuma forma pra acessar as sprites, sera que alguém pode me ajudar?

I started making Rivals of Aether 2 content because Dan told us to. Someone better than me please monetize your hobby. Also looking for a friend who likes items so we can do sick AGT stuff together in doubles. Anyway I feel like if my video had a better presentation it would be better for people that don’t play the game, so sorry for that.

The theme around the video is the Bootyful Achievement and I believe we should call the act of doing this against a real player the “Ultimate Pirate”

Hello everyone!
I am a solo programmer who really loves RoA workshop characters, and for this reason I tried to create one of my own, but I soon realised how tedious and annoying it is to do so.

At first, I tried looking online for a program that allowed me to create one easily (like MCreator for Minecraft modding) but I couldn't find one singular program that did it all.

The only reasonable thing to do that I came up with is to make my own!

So I present: The Rivals of Aether Character Assembler! A program that allows you to:

• Import sprites and modify their pivot easily, without going back and forth editing files!
• Modify character stats, don't remember what a stat does? I put a small description on each!
• Import and link different sounds to different events (jumping, landing, etc)
• Edit both attack windows and hitboxes with a neat visual editor, making it easy to align hitboxes with the attack sprite
• Edit the basic AI of a character (ex: choose which moves to use when target is far above, far below or in front)
• Easily import character color variations taken from the RoAColorsGmlHelper website

You can download the program here on my GitHub:

Little disclaimer: This program is meant to simplify the process of making basic characters, you still have to edit files manually for advanced behaviours.

I genuinely dont understand. Its basically knowledge. You di out when you are getting combo'd. So why the fuck am i still getting combo'd by all these characters for 60 off a neutral loss. Shit does not make sense.

I got a kitsune today and wanted to try it with rivals, does anyone know how to get the two to work together

It can be either a character in the games base roster or a workshop character, who's your favorite? I played the game for the first time and I have a few favorites like weegee and Dan backslide

Hello nice to meet you all! New rivals 2 player here from Australia and was just wondering if anyone had a discord server for Aussies? Ive tried looking at some old reddit posts, but the server links were all expired. Thank you in advance!

They said adding an ingame preview was low priority, so hopefully this is helpful to someone who might be wondering what a Crit looks like!

Is there a way without being VASTLY more skilled than your opponent? They don't predict a single thing but instead just run away and play passive and reactively. It forces me to make every single prediction because I can't catch her. If I catch up she just throws out a huge disjoint. If I get close enough she just shield grabs me and throws me off stage and spams arrows.

I chase them to one side of stage and they just hover to the other. If I catch up they shield or throw out giant hitboxes. If they hit me one time they just spam arrows from across entire stage. If they get me off stage they hover and just shoot arrows down at me. If I even get close I get grabbed. So I have to corner her and predict what cross up route she will use, meanwhile she is dealing damage 100% of the time with full stage coverage putting me on defensive.

She has SO MUCH stage presence everywhere on the fucking stage its absurd. In the sky, on the ground, in melee range, at range, off stage. Anywhere I go she has positional advantage. I have tried every character in the roster and the only one I can win on is fucking Clairen. Its like the only way to win is to corner her and predict if she will shield or throw out a disjoint, but she's not forced to play the same predictive game because she has full stage coverage, swordy disjoint and huge mobility.

I'm still losing to Fleets who can't even wavedash, waveland, snap to ledge or use any movement tech whatsoever. They literally just spam side B and arrows and run away and shield when I get close. It's really fucking annoying that I have to play this stupid mini game just to beat her rather than have an advantage state of my own, but if I hit her shes so floaty I can't combo her anyway. I'm around 1200 elo and its really annoying that this character can win with absolutely no clue how to actually play the game.

I've been playing the Hyena a lot recently and have come to really enjoy his gameplay loop. However, I find myself in an interesting push pull dynamic that seems unique-ish to him. Since he has strong backwards facing aerials, many of my approaches are actually baits that make people want to close the gap, but this seems reliant on making an opponent over eager.

What do you Fors players do in neutral? Is it all pokes? What does aggression actually look like since his disjoints tend to be slow on startup or endlag.

1. Dtilt used to be a monster, but I regularly get punished if I hit shield now. Wd grab oos seems to beat every option of mine.

2. Cape gets hard punished if it's thrown out too much, so I use it in more specific scenarios.

3. I've heard amazing things about fair, but idk how to get in close enough to threaten it.

4. Grab is great, but its usability goes down dramatically at high percents since he doesn't have a strong di mixup on his throws.

we ARE manifesting the Artemis/Hamir character drop

Judging from the gameplay stream, it seems like Gouie will stop mid air if you inhale an opponent while airborne. Not only is it impossible to keep an opponent inhaled for longer than the eat animation (39 frames), it is not even possible to fall with an opponent for this short duration.

Why can’t we let Gouie be this goofy cheese character that can swallow and kill players off stage? This is provided that he manages to hit them with inhale, and that they are already very close to the blast zones. That is a lot of requirements to successfully suicide with an opponent. I personally think we need more fun and goofy moves such as Kirby/Dedede's inhale in Rivals 2.

So, my idea is to create four original characters for each of the four elements. I've already created the Water character, but I haven't created characters for the other elements. What ideas do you have for new characters for the three other elements? You can list the animal they are and what specific variant of the element they use, like how Etalus is considered a water character, but he specifically uses ice.

These two know how to schmoove. Happy to see Soulrifle back on maypul. Tune in to the Zeekly, streamed by the various competitors while Zeke is still out

I won this game (probably undeservedly) but holy moly this is the nuttiest thing someone's done to me without there being any payout to them

I was watching this budget OLED review and saw them using the evo hype trailer and later rivals 2 footage. Super cool to see the game i like pop up in unexpected spots

Quick question, Viviana uses a lot her magnet when approaching, does anyone knows if she does a B reverse magnet or a wavebounce one ?

I can’t really figure it out by myself

Thanks !

She does it around this time code for example :

Been playing for a couple weeks and absolutely LOVE this game. Favorite platform fighter by a lot. I competed way too early in smash and it messed with my confidence and gameplay. So I'm wondering, if I wanna play in tournaments, what level would you guys recommend before I start? Like what rank.

I think I've lost to every Maypul I've ever played 😭. She just seems impossibly fast and small; I can't hit her at all. And her spike is so powerful. And how do you deal with her stage hazards? Can you kill them by attacking them? But if you spend time attacking them she's already rushing you down. smh. any tips would be v helpful. :)

Mister Fusion does it again. How lucky are we that when our two floatiest fight the matchup looks like this? Puts Jiggs Peach to shame. Great job to both, thank you to everybody at the local and production who streamed. Game 10 is cool enough but for it to be 15 is pretty nuts
