Don't really post things like this but I think it should be interesting.
What would be your textbook definition of: zoning, spacing, and mixup in terms of fighting games?
So put it into words that someone who's never played fighting games understand what they mean.

Due to the sarcasm that sometimes happens in these types of threads, is that TRULY zoning and spacing in that vid?

Woof wins the internet.
Needs more text for button commands, otherwise I'm not going to know how to perform those stellar mixups perfectly.

I just shat a chicken, skinned it, fried it, and ate it.
And now you know why this site gets less and less new members that actually want to stay.

You're an idiot. He asked an honest question and a valid one since turtling and zoning/keepaway gets mixed up often. INstead the thread was turned into a joke. Just a bunch of useless members that think they have the right to hijack threads because they are considered "respected" veterans of the site.
dont ruin his thread with your attacks emil
he already got not one but TWO valuable responses on definitions, and he got a good response within the first post

How I'd define.
Zoning: setting up attack patterns to keep the enemy at distance. The class example of zoning would be the SF2 fireball/uppercut trap
Spacing: setting up attack patterns to limit the enemy's ability to punish your moves. Spacing requires knowing the recovery and range of your moves.
The two are similar, but slightly different.
Mixup: a situation where the opponent has two or three choices, and a wrong guess leads to damage or a worse position. The classic example of mixup would be a SF2 tick throw, or a situation where you have to guess block high or low.
BTW Woof, I don't think Melty is a good tutorial game for this, it is too damn confusing for new players.
(edit: caught me brainfarting and typing in the wrong game.)
BTW Woof, I don't think Arcana is a good tutorial game for this, it is too damn confusing for new players.

No, hes right.
Emil, you are a douche bag and none like you. With that said, you have scared off a few new people.
