I miss being scrub at fighting games with friends. Even many online fighting games try to emulate the hanging with friends mode online where players cycle in and out of a group instead of everything 1v1.

It’s neat how games where is about 1v1 can grow a community around the craft that tends to be less rage toxic.

Maybe it’s because in co-op you can blame your allies for losing so you can hate them.

No one to blame but your decisions in guilty gear and you just need to learn and improve.
