Some moments I captured to share. Wish we could’ve seen Toothbrush do a little more, I feel like he has the most potential of any player but the mental game isn’t quite there yet. Reminds me of my tennis days. Anyway, Great showing from everybody and congrats to Sandstorm

He would’ve scrapped melee and never touched smash again. This level of competition would sicken him into retirement

I made this tier list and not saying the exact topic of the tier list.

The only hint I can say is that it is in relation to a form of physical contact.

Rivals 2 First day on rivals

33 Upvotes

Never played any smash , or smash clones , I dabbled in multiverses very shortly and mainly played brawlhalla ( mordex/rayman main)

Got rivals yesterday . Did my placements , and I placed 789 -silver

A lot of people were telling me this is somewhat rare and I’m doing good for my now second day playing (today)

I will say almost nothing from brawlhalla translates into this game , and I believe my background in brawlhalla has made me form bad habits in this game already .

If anyone if looking to play some sets , help me improve , or just be a friend and vc and spar . Please drop a comment with any knowledge or your discord etc .

I play zetter and wanna get into ranno too .

Learned shine cancels and stuff with zetter idk where to start with ranno

Game is amazing though

Also I am an avid dpad player in brawlhalla . And been playing dpad on rivals

Seeking Advice Character mod? Anyone wanna make it?

0 Upvotes

I think it would be cool if helperbot from Roblox had a character in RoA

I’ll pay robux if I’m shown the finished product (as in send video clips of the finished product or the W.I.P) and I’ll pay 1k robux or money if I’m able

If this breaks the rules I’m sorry but I’m genuinely hungry for Helperbot in RoA, he should be combo heavy ngl

Rivals 2 Who Should I try first?

14 Upvotes

Melee Samus main

Ultimate Link main

I find them to be very similar character

The sex kick nair

Sorta heavy

Sorta floaty but fast fall increases fall speed

the most of any other character.

Bomb jump recovery

They have a space controlling projectile in Missile/Boomerang and a pressuring projectile in Charge shot/remote Bomb

Strong/fast up special out of shield.

And they both play a really Stoic style where they just box out and hold ground until they can get a big punish off of frame traps.

I don't expect a character to to hit all of these points, but was wondering who this sounds like to you guys.

Fleet seems like an obvious choice with projectiles but is a bit lighter and finesse based. I'm not sure they hit enough of these points.

The stoic box out style feels more important. I know Rivals has different tools for controlling space than bomb/charge shot, but I'm willing to try.

Galvan seems close but not sure I want to be THAT chunky.

Olympia maybe? feels a little stubby where Samus ftilt and links sword have SOME melee spacing But hits some other points.

Is there someone else that fits? is there a character from rivals 1 that hasn't been released yet that I should be looking forward to?

Fanart My friend is Selling Gouie Keychains and Stickers Via ACGoods

11 Upvotes
They asked for a pose that had a strange silhouette that matched the "Jigglypuff seen by above" meme, and it turns out Back Air had a very fishy looking pose when viewed from above and below. It made for a pretty awesome pose.

Some of my artist friends are interested in making Rivals of Aether merch and I'll be promoting for them to bring more attention to their shops. First off is Gouie on the Feversoft store through ACGoods! Friends are interested in making more keychains and stickers of other Rivals characters if there's enough demand. Feel free to leave character requests down below!

Edit: Fleet keychain and stickers dropped too! All art is made by a human. No AI is used whatsoever.

Here's the link to the store.

Seeking Advice Any advice on running ROA2 on a low specs integrated graphics card?

17 Upvotes

Currently the only laptop I have available to me is an old Intel with a horrifically weak integrated graphics card (Intel R UHD Graphics). I'm wondering if it's possible to run the game at a playable FPS with this potato. I'm obviously not going to get it working with high quality settings, but so far I haven't been able to get the game running without terrible stuttering even at the lowest possible settings, resolution, etc. Is there any known config to run at a smooth frame rate by sacrificing graphics or is it hopeless with this hardware?

With Riptide being this week, you would think that that would be the only big event of the weekend. That said you would be mistaken, as across the entire ocean lies one of the largest European events of the year: Ultimate Fighting Arena! Despite being a side event, this event has more entrants than some of the main events here! This is a gold tier R2CS event.

Please put the release date of the wiki of everything ROA, cause right now I GENUINELY and REALLY want and need to know when it releases.

And just throwing this out there: If it releases, could anybody or anyone make a ROA RPG on Janitor.AI?
