I understood absolutely nothing about this
Fgc: fighting game community. Games like Street Fighter, Tekken, etc.
Neutral: the point in the game where neither player has an advantage, like in the beginning where the players are just moving back and forth trying to get the first hit in, and thereby gain advantage.
Puppy girls: y'know, girls who wear puppy ears and collars or whatever.
Clicker training: a form of dog training that involves reinforcing good behavior with a little device that makes a click noise, which can help the dog more precisely understand what action was correct than rewarding with food after.
So I think what he's saying is that when you train a puppy girl with clicker training, you're basically training them to quickly react to click sounds, like how players might respond to the sound of their opponents controller as a way of predicting their moves. So they'd be very good at the neutral game, since they'd be able to get the first hit in or effectively block/counter the opponents first hit. The guy responding is suggesting that if he brought tennis balls he could throw them in the middle of the match and distract the puppy girl - since dogs chase tennis balls - thereby giving him the upper hand. I hope this helps lol
Edit: the part about clicker training
Try again. Not that kind of clicker.
Can you please explain?
According to a quick internet search clicker training is a dog training method in which whenever a dog does something right you click with a noisemaker to indicate the exact moment the dog performed a preferable action before rewarding them. How this applies to fighting games I don't fully know but I would assume that the doggirls are undergoing clicker training when training in fighting games, thus making them stronger than the average player.
that meme required 3 people, 1 page of discussion, and nobody agree, the future gonna be weird
Niche memes you need to decipher are the best
Ah fuck, that makes more sense. I think the missing link is that when playing fighting games they would hear the click of the other person's controller inputs which would be tied to "positive behavior" like pressing the right button in response.
Wow thanks, that really clears it up.
Tysm! That helped a lot.
Ashen44 corrected a bit of that. The joke makes more sense with that context
FGC = fighting game community. A set is a match in a tournament. Usually it's best of 3 or 5 games. Having "godly neutral" means you're really good at getting a hit on your opponent when you're both just walking around fishing for a hit. The rest is something to do with furries I think.
