Hi
Hi, I am technically new to the game since I have not played this game since 2011 for some reason that is unknown. I used to be pretty decent and tried to remember my moves and such, but sadly my mojo has dissipated into years of not playing. Anyways if anyone were willing to give me tips on aikido or help me out that would be freaking awesome 
. Thanks, and keep playing 
. Thanks, and keep playing
Here's a tip: Don't listen to what other players say. Play how you want to play. If you feel you aren't improving from playing that way, then try to adapt that. But don't stop lifting because someone doesn't know how to counter it. Don't stop snapkicking because somebody keeps getting dm'd a bit too much. No move is unfair. Each move is counterable.

You're right, but shovelling makes people lose a lot of respect. It's best not to do it anyway.
Thanks for the tips XD and I have shoveled before like twice but usually my aikido opening is the one where you kick up and into their arm, sometimes it works, other times they easily grab me and throw me down. Other times I try doing similar kicks but switch it up a bit, I just have a hard time understanding how to counter people or stay upright
