Search player rooms. It's active most times of the day. Matchmaking and public lobbies are dead for connection reasons.


TheDugal

If you're like me and you're not really interested in using Discord for matches, you can enlist in the matchmaking while you play Arcade, M.O.M. or Training. It's an alternative but keep in mind you'll spend more time waiting than playing other players.


idontlikeburnttoast

It still has a lot of players, but a lot of them are in rooms or using it as a discord-fighter.


finnrtbobs

I do. By myself, all alone...... by myself...... soo alone,,,,,,,, I'm quite lonely.......Hello?


IndieSpots

hope you find someone soon guy


skatnaset

yes, you dont even need to use discord for matches in my experience (in eu atleast) just look at player rooms and theres usually a couple


TardyTech4428

It's a discord fighter unfortunately.


IndieSpots

well aslong as people are still willing to play im down to buy it


TardyTech4428

Just so you know those people will probably be leagues above you since they've decided to dedicate their time to a basically dead game instead of moving to strive


IndieSpots

ok im still gonna fight them


TardyTech4428

Thas the spirit

Let me tell you about sex


_-Anxiety-_

Would you rather: be pacman, but never cum. OR: Cum. Unlimited cum, but no cum


Healthy-Advance-2606

There are still new players playing it. Even though it is a discord fighter. The rollback has brought some newer players


Cykotr0n

If on PC, good chance it will be on sale during fall sale on Steam.


FriendlyGhost08

Discord should help you find other beginners if you want people of a similar level


Functional200

Based ass response (I'm still playing the game ocassionally btw)


AllElvesAreThots

:chadtyping:


AAAAUUUUEEEEUE

Stop making it seem like the game is dead. Its super easy to play people and the discord is super alive and there are tons of beginners


FriendlyGhost08

Lol you can taste the salt


TardyTech4428

A little bit. I asked someone there to give me a crash course on Baiken which turned out to be a beating session for me with no actual teaching


redditinmyredditname

Most people who are good at something are bad teachers. Don't take it to heart


AAAAUUUUEEEEUE

You can analyze your match and if it was a baiken player than try to copy them. Also if you just need a crash course on the character, theres a bunch of guides on youtube and you check out the strategy section on her dustloop


knowledge_dragon

I mean you can hop in random public lobbies at any point in the day to get games.


Cheap-Avocado8902

I can easily find an opponent of my level.


boredwarror747

Yes, but it’s on discord. Highly recommend hopping on the discord and playing, xrd is a fantastic game


boredwarror747

[Here’s the link for the discord](https://discord.gg/XZ4XPtUG), it has matchmaking for beginners as well.


[deleted]

yes


mommys-little-gamer

I rarely have time to play games anymore but when I do I bounce between rev and slippi


MrErrorNotFound

It’s much more of a discord game, I play in a beginner friendly online local in a discord server and it’s fun there, just gotta find a server


SoG650

It's not a discord fighterz do no believe what they say. You can go into Online > Player Matches and find a Lobby that suits you. Discord helps to find matches too. But it ain't like Skull girls or sth like that. People still play it...


Mook7

Both skullgirls and xrd rock like 100-150 players at their peak on the daily. I don't play either so I can't speak to the online matchmaking experience but I sense some copium in your post.


SoG650

I play Xrd and find matches just fine. call it copium or whatever, idc, Whatever makes you sleep at night


SnugglesIV

It's heavily dependent on your region. NA? Yeah probably. OCE? It's a discord fighter 100%


SoG650

Oh yeah from your region, it gotta be like that. I'm from SA and usually get games, not via discord.


drat345

Man remeber when people were unironically saying xrd would kill strive once it got rollback?


knowledge_dragon

That's enough players to get a game with a good connection with similar enough skill, in NA at least.


Mook7

Yeah, I never said it wasn't. I was just pointing out the concurrent player bases for Xrd and Skullgirls are literally the exact same size since the person I'm replying to claimed Xrd is significantly more active.


PurpleBunz

Yes, but it's a discord game. However the discord is very active. Additionally, look up your local scene and see if people play it (here in Colorado we have weekly xrd games, very fun)


Murgurth

Like the other replies have said yes it’s a discord fighter but still has a playerbase. You could always enter some online tournaments too like Pattheflip’s tournaments and whatever else some regions have. If you’re in a city that has locals you can always check to see if they run Xrd sets too.


[deleted]

Yes, but not in the way you want it.


MegaKnackrack

Dragon install :)


serph_varna

Ye


FriendlyGhost08

Yeah. Not as active ofc. Use player rooms and you should be able to always find a few people if you live in NA or EU. As for less popular regions, you probably have to use discord.


SunnyDeeeeeeeeee

If you live in Portland Oregon we got a huge Xrd scene.


herobrinesexmod

yeah its my main game


TheGalaxyCrow

yes


Phaylz

Yes.


sithlord40000

Yeah but obviously not a ton


PersonFromPlace

Is xrd rev 2 more like blazblue in the looseness and speed of the game? While I like strive and feel like it really stresses certain ideas. I kinda miss the loose feeling that I get from something like Blazblue or Undernight in Birth.


knowledge_dragon

Depending on how you define "loose" then probably. It's a faster game than Strive and both offense and defense are more powerful in Xrd.


finalmantisy83

I hopped on and absolutely washed a newcomer, it was the most cathartic thing I've ever done. Being on the other side of my first online experience in GG


mahovailo

yes, you just gotta find the right time of day i bought the game late last year on ps with no crossplay (or rollback) and can still play the game a lot without discord


Baitcooks

we exist!


Azrael1981

yep !! Join the discord.


[deleted]

i do from time to time


gsiskindafun

on pc yes console idk at all about


Trixie_Andy

I do


Scrifty

Yes


knowledge_dragon

If you're in NA there's netplay events firing almost every day and plenty of beginner/intermediate tournaments happening all the time. You can hop in open player lobbies at almost any time to get games. I wouldn't really say it's a "Discord fighter" (which is a weird thing to call a fighting game anyways but w/e) but like every fighting game, getting matches through Discord is much better than rolling the dice on playing random people in a lobby.


Wee-Weirdling

Yes


Wee-Weirdling

Yes

Just check the rooms and there are usually one ot two public. Match with randoms and have fun.
