Getting into 2D fighting games is tough, especially if you’re trying to learn to play them properly. While most people would be happy to button-mash their way through a game (and there’s nothing wrong with that!), learning the intricacies of fighting game fundamentals is tricky. Playing fighting games, even at a beginner competitive level, is daunting because there’s so much to learn. It’s a bit like really, really, really fast-paced chess that requires lightning fast-reflexes and decision-making.
