Which moves are considered lagtactics in SCV?

Yeah HRD not like your opinion is actually...let's call it "relevant". Lag tactics exist even if is opening youtube while fighting causing lag, is there, anything that you do with lag is a tactic therefore the name lag tactics. And yes even with 1 bar is still better than SCIV.
 
With 5 bars there are basically no lag tactics in this game. With that connection if you try to abuse the lag in any way against a good player you will get owned.
 
unless you consciously play on 0-2 bar connection there is no lag tactics. I mean on 3 bars itshard to execute some stuff as wiff punishers or stepping stuff, but overall its still good, maybe just not effective way to practice. 4 bars is fine and 5 bars are basically offline play. Sometimes that my differ though due to how your Internet Provider handles routes etc.

Possibly.... but I'm with virgin media in the Uk which has the highest and fastest broadband connection- so i've got the latest mb throttle. And I'm a 4 bar in player matches but in gc- im a 2 bar..... apparently.... Personally I don't get the bar system since players may see a different number than I regarding the same person.

For instance an australian might be a 3 bar but in his/her own country.... but in GC he's a zero bar...
 
^If you live in the UK don't ever play against an Aussie. I've heard so many Aussies complain about connecting with European players. 90% of US players are 1 bars with them and Europe is even farther than the US from Australia. When playing someone from that area myself will get either a 1 bar or a 2 bar that feels like a 3/4 bar.

Well I don't get the bar system either. It lies straight to your face sometimes....not going to lie lol.
As for the 0bar....that just means that particular person's NAT is either strict or moderate. An open NAT allows people to your "bars" with them.

I've played against a few and sometimes the connection is ok. In fact a few times.... its been the equivalent of offline gaming- nice fast pace on both sides. No complaints there. Same with Asia... but 90% laggadon. its all hit and miss really and makes me have a migraine thinking about it if i'm online too long lol.

I read an article a few year back (i think in the new scientist) that talked about online gaming and lag- which said something on the lines that: Gamers need a portion of the internet warded off purely for online games. Whether that would make a difference considering the distance of gamers..... remains to be seen.

Yeah..... someone explained the NAT Type thing to me a few weeks ago in GC. But really...... its all crazy.

I also need to figure out when its peak time online....

Lag tactics and lag switching are two entirely different things brother.

This sounds like exactly what I said... maybe that's because I live in New Zealand (which is right below Australia for those of you who don't know where it is on a map...) and yea UK/Europe people in my games get an insta-kick unless they are on my friends list. The connection is horrible to us over here for us to connect to them.
 
Lag tactics is for SCIV the only semi-lag tactic is Ivy's 1k and that isn't really a real lag tactic in SCIV, even if you react you cannot block the low only before you guard before the low attack will your crouch blocking guard connect, but with Ivy if you react fast enough you can block it so there is really no lag tactics in SCV, which I noticed this when the game came out on the first day.

However if we are talking about lag i see plenty of it and people abuse it and even say 2 bars is fine which is obviously not, and the funny thing is i get a delay and the other guy does not, its obviously done on purpose to their advantage this what we usually call a "lagger"

I'm skeptical about that. I've got a few ultra-casual pals that I play with fairly often and on several occasions I have noticed one of us bitching about input lag when the other wasn't. It's happened often enough at this point that I believe input lag can be very uneven and affect only one side of a match. As long as it isn't over half a second though, I'd imagine it's not something being done intentionally. If it was...well, that'd be even more sad than most lagswitchers.

I know its amazing the difference between mitsurugi 1A SCIV and 1A SCV that shit used to be a free hit move in SCIV now its blockable even if your slow in SCV.

Not to mention Sophitia's the best/worst lag low ever.

It's funny how in SCIV 1A pissed everyone off and 4B didn't seem like a big deal, but now since everyone can block 1A on reaction, 4B is the devil. It's like they switched places.
