Regional Matchmaking Canada
1881

aye, good matches

watched em all

not one of them used what i was mentioning

but, it’s good information to have, because i looked it up and now i have 5 fireball counters when i thought i only had 2

v-skill twirl to dodge
v-skill slash
ex roll
ex ASE (the first hit nullifies fireballs, then he stabs. it’s not going to punish projectiles but it will prevent people from doing walk-up shenanigans behind a fireball)
super

and i really need to learn how to play without the claw better. my normal pressure sucks without the claw.

1882

ryu parrying confirmed the only fun thing in SF5 already.

Super SF5 when?

1883

alex looks sick, i’m gonna have fun headbutting somma you dorks

1884

well the licence plate on Alex’s truck says "SSF V"
so it’s pretty much confirmed already.

with these drivers will PS3/PS4 sticks work with SFV? someone give it a try. unless you have a 360 stick you’re hooped imo… using xboxce/joy2key/whatever is garbage.

1886

wait what, where did you see that shit?

edit: nvm found it

Online should honestly just default to BO3 format… capcucks please.

Looks like they’re holding SF5 canada championships? Online qualifiers, followed by regional tournaments across Canada at Cineplex Odeon theatres and finals in Toronto?

1888

WATCH!!! now!

1889

was pretty convoluted to find our local tournament. here it is:

hope everyone joins up!

1890

Man I’m way to excited for Alex. And I’ll be at Dickens this Sunday, ended up having to help someone move. Real life sucks.

1891

Alex is mine, hippies. Sounds like his V-trigger is Bane Train haha. Hulkamania is comin’ for you!

Is there a trailer or just the screen shots?

Finally…photos! Photos of Spider-Man! Even his voice is perfect. I’m excited for finally a live action version of him that’s loyal to his comic book self.

1892

Haha he looks massive in this game, seems a bit weird. From what I saw only screenshots, really hoping for a trailer soon.

1893

live action? that shit was 150% CGI familia

1894

Lmao they finally did it

1895

really capcom? you can play best 2 out of 3 in ranked, only if both people choose rematch?

if i win game 1, what incentive do i ever have to hit rematch when i can make you hold that L?

if i lose game 1, outside of bad connections, why would i ever not hit rematch?

maybe if the winner of game 1 could double or nothing his points + a little extra for the gamble, it’s worth it, but if it’s literally just “awww, ok, i’ll give you another free chance at taking my points”, then good luck lol

1896

black panther looks like a bad mother fucker

1897

Corrected.

1898

I just installed it and it works. I guess it turns your stick into an Xinput device so as long as your stick is compatible with PC then it will work with SFV if you install this driver.

I believe Capcom is going to add DirectInput support anyway so this driver will be unnecessary in the future but props to MadCatz for releasing this in the meantime.

1899

it’s basically a “nicer, official” version of x360ce or whatever

the fact that madcatz had to release custom drivers and capcom doesn’t want to add d-input support into the game itself blows my mind

note that the drivers still only work for the most recently released SFV line of madcatz products. if you bought a ps4 TE2 from earlier, it still doesn’t work in SFV without a 3rd party workaround

also naruto on ps4 alone outsold the combined steam and PS4 sales (digital and physical) for SFV in february, which is really brutal for them. but maybe releasing a functional game would have helped them out.

yeah i don’t like the runback feature for ranked mode. it should remain as 1 match. hold that L. plus, this makes the rankings less reliable/accurate as well since we can take points from the same guy twice.
