About Me
I'm a 20 year old college student with dreams of someday being something more than a college student. What that something is, I don't know. I think of myself as being sorta funny, sometimes.

Juggling and being Juggled
Zaro27 | 4:42 PM on 11.14.2009 1 comments


Whether you're playing a shooter or a fighter, being juggled sucks. In shooters, it sucks because you know that it's entirely your fault. In fighters, it sucks because it means that you suck, at least in comparison to your opponent.

I was playing TF2 earlier and saw a few teammates get juggled, air-shotted and aerialed to death. In case you were wondering what I mean by juggling and what not, it is the act of firing a rocket at your opponent's feet in an effort to push them into the air where they are easier targets. Air-shotting and aerials are when you pop an enemy into the air with rocket number 1 and then shoot them with rocket number 2 OR switch to shotgun and kill. I felt bad for them. Could I have saved them? Probably not. Did I try? Yeah, sure. It really does suck to be on the receiving end of a juggle or aerial. You feel helpless and surprised, unless you're a Pyro. If you're a Pyro, you feel like reflecting their shot back at them. Juggling is an advanced technique used by skilled Soldiers. If you're being juggled, try to fight back. Crouch, shoot at the Soldier, do whatever you can to kill him, because if you don't you're just another kill.

Juggling in fighters is utterly cheap. It makes you feel like such a noob. Tekken is probably one of the worst games to be juggled in. Once you're off the ground, you're helpless. Most matches end after one good juggle. That's not to say that being juggled is a death sentence. Just saying you should watch out for it. Despite the cheapness, I thoroughly enjoy playing Tekken. However, I feel that Street Fighter and Virtua Fighter are more fun. Just an opinion.
