That was very well thought out, I appreciate it very much. Although I've played toribash for ages, replay making something I never really did until now so that's where some noob ideas drop into my replay making, I'm basically testing everything out and slowly learning a few general intuition moves along the way. As you pointed out with a few replays (your boom and kicks) things like that may slip my mind sometimes as I still lack a bit of intuition within replay making and mostly go for the obvious strikes.
The jerky stiffness most likely comes from my lack of ability to freely control my own flow and momentum yet, my biggest hope is to get this down and understand core movements and how to use a greater series of joints to produce excellent momentum and such. It will take a long time, but I'm patient enough to know that I'll catch onto things within time.
One thing I'd like to stop doing is grab DMs because they always seem too cheeky and a bit noobish since it DMs things quite easily. But like I mentioned above, I still lack the control I need in the momentum for punches and strikes. I also work better with torso and arm use than I do with my legs as you can see I barely focus any replays on major kicks.
Thanks for the great feedback
