For myself it seemed harder to get a match and much laggier.

So apparently trip guard works the same in SFV, but what about throw immunity in reversal scenarios? I believe it was 2 frames in SFIV, after block/landing from a hit/waking up/etc. Does anyone know if it’s the same in SFV?

From the book:

“Characters who are in blockstun cannot be thrown, nor can they be thrown for an additional two frames after leaving blockstun. (characters in hitstun can’t be thrown, either, which also continues for two frames after hitsun ends.)”

I don’t recall reading anything similar with landing/wakeup but maybe they just neglected to mention it.

I thought there was a video stating that there was no trip guard in SFV.

I don’t remember the specific all too clearly from SFIV, but it seems like I am more vulnerable whiffing an air grab in this game upon landing than I was in IV.

You do need to pay to play online yes

God damn the FGC is mad poverty.

Valve just announced their prize pools are going to be $1,000,000 at every CSGO major this year.

Maybe Capcom should release special color or costumes where all the money goes to the evo pool.

is it just me or is reversal DP pretty hard to do in SF5 when you have super?

i always, always get super. i even try to be super clean and deliberate with the DP motion, and i don’t suck at doing DPs

i’ve probably gotten more accidental supers in 70-80 games of SF5 than i’ve gotten in 3 years of playing SF4

sweeet, my boy Ortio starts in net tonight. don’t let me down Ortio!!!

Hey all.

I’m announcing the first Street Fighter V tournament that I’m hosting this year. (No other games; except maybe SMASH if I can get some people from that camp to talk to me.)

OK. So details.

Cathedral Community Center - April 30, 2016. (I will add an actual address to this post later, it’s on 13th Ave.) - Regina, SK
10$ Door Fee
10$ Tournament Fee (20 total.)
Pot split 70/20/10
Pot Bonus - $500
After Party - Trifecta Music Festival is going to be putting on a show at the center right after the tournament. There will be local acts from Saskatchewan performing. We have a liquor license (with valid ID) and the event is all ages.
We will be following evo ruleset. 2/3 until winners/losers/grand finals which are 3/5
BYOC - (legacy controllers OK, but you are responsible for your pad.) - this is contingent on how this works at Chip Damage’s next event and I will follow their lead on whether or not they should be allowed.

PS if 4d is still a thing get in touch with meeeee

anybody on PC have matches start fine then get laggier as they go on? should I not be running this game windowed mode?

have played literally zero good matches so far, everything that doesn’t start laggy, ends laggy. all 5 bar matches

Yeah I’m getting more supers than anticipated, Ricky. Just gotta be real careful and take your time I think… I’m no tech, but that’s the advise I’ve been trying to stand by.

Also, reacting to crush counters is hard :frowning: you almost have to depend on setups otherwise switching gears is so difficult I find.

What’s the deal with R.Mika’s crouching MP, lol

SF5 plays like shit in windowed mode on my pc for some reason

yo what up Burzy! glad to see you’re still hosting tournaments. it’s me Peter with 4D.
we’re still Team4D for sure but we don’t really stream anymore cause we all have other passions we’re pursuing at the moment.
i think some of the 4D guys are thinking of coming down for your tourney though!

man doing survival with mika is fuckin impossible… The cpu reaction jumps EVERY command grab? Are you fucking me?

so i have a history of trying out different capture cards… i bought two different ones in the middle of last year but had to return both of them because they didn’t play well with my setup

but now i need to capture some footage during the month of march and i don’t want to buy a capture card just for such a short time frame.

is there someone who is willing to lend me their capture card for the month of march (peter, perhaps, if you’ve got streaming on hold for a bit)? it doesn’t matter if it plays well with my setup, i’ll find a way to make it work. i would need it to capture 720p 60fps (no need for 60fps at higher resolutions). i would take real good care of it i promise, and i’ll love you forever <3

lol wtf, i just read that if you alt tab on PC against somebody on a PS4 it will desync the PS4 player out hardcore?

time to test!

edit: lol wtf it does, thats retarded

sorry ricky, i already lent it out. it’s an avermedia extremecap U3 and it works great. much better than my previous Elgato.
