Hey guys I’m new here. Just started playing street fighter 5 and I would like to get better. I’m only at bronze:( lol if there are any cool ppl out there that would like to spar/play from time to time…my PS4 gamertag is OshiroRomanov
Just get online and fight. That is the best way to learn how to fight. Capcom’s fight balancing works fairly well. If you pick a “friendly” sparring partner, you will only know how to fight that individual.
This is only half true. Fighting people online is indeed good to get better in general, but as you play you will run into certain characters or matchups that give you trouble. In this scenario having a training partner can be invaluable, especially if they use a more obscure character.
As for finding specific people to play with, you can ask in the SFV Lounge which generally has players of all levels and is by far the most active thread in this section. Just ask around enough and eventually you’ll find someone. We also have a discord with a specific SFV section.
Oh and I down to run sets with you if I’m available. I’m on PC though so you’ll have to add me as a friend in-game. My CFN: Vhozite
I’m ranked in low Platinum and use Vega, but haven’t been as regular since Injustice dropped so I’m quite rusty. I also dabble in Guile and Juri.
