PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale

I feel like someone has been flooding the board with a little misinformation. Not going to point fingers or drop names though. Just going to point out that he falls apart against any character with a strong close-to-mid range game.

Anyway. I've been wanting to jump back into this for a bit now but I don't know how to Drake. Can someone convince me to stop playing SC2 and teach me to Drake?

Here's how to REALLY play Drake, coming from a 999:

-Skimming the basics: Always have a barrel out, Barrel into Run n Gun, etc.
-Your BnB (brackets are optional): [Air dS], sS, dS, backwards sS, nT and run forward, [Square (rifle butt)]. Also abuse the Barrelblast.
-What is the Barrelblast, you ask? Well, when an opponent is blocking, air barrels will explode on them. Therefore, spamming air barrels in a blocking opponents face is a very good strategy. You get 20 AP for each barrel broken.
-Drake can play good keepaway (barrel, air sT, Run n Gun) AND good rushdown (barrel, air dC, Run n Gun).

I would write more but I'm too lazy :/

If you're against a wall, it's nearly impossible for people that aren't Sly to escape Run n Gun over and over backwards. If you're not by a wall, go forward and back until they manage to get above you, then do an air magnum or grenade launcher to get them away. Otherwise, follow what Crabhammar said. Drake is a very simple character to play as.

Use an air barrel to hit-confirm into his Level 1, and either fS, dS, or Up Throw for his Level 2. He also has the best level 1 and 2 for interrupting other supers. For his level 3, always jump and shoot to remove the recovery from the shots.

Oh wow, how could I forget this? Backwards Run n Gun is soooo safe. Good catch, tom.

I stopped playing Sackboy before he was nerfed. I dropped him after I 1v1ed an Evil Cole from this board and got trashed, which showed me the real shortcomings of the character. After that I really didn't like any character in the game until I started playing more of Drake and Kratos. Drake I like more, but Kratos was easier for me to just pick up and run amok online with.

So you can keep saying I dropped Sackboy after the patch, the truth is I just don't like the character's inability to fight at close range.

On a serious note, Sackboy is the best in the game.

He has everything.

Best level 3 super, hit confirm with level 1, hit confirm with level 2, best Up grab in the game, AP burst off up grab, practical combos, corner combos, spammable projectiles, traps, gadgets, excellent match-ups, great recovery, great mobility, a teleporter (checkpoint) and 3 reflectors.

Just because you don't know how to use him doesn't mean anything.

Eh, it was my fault, I made the mistake of using the back-up while the main was being banned, so the back-up was banned at the same time because of the shared computer.
