It’s so unceremonious too cause there’s no flash. Just nope meters gone.
Agreed on Gief being the easiest matchup. I had the most trouble when I fought against good Chuns. Her pressure game can get extreme, especially with that V-Trigger.
As for his V-Skill being used for an AA, it’s great. I used it so often against jump-ins and it helped get me V-Trigger for those critical moments. I hope it’s still viable on release.
Not at all, I got blown up by meaties a lot trying it.
Toughest for me was Vega or Bison. I just went extra ham on their knockdown because they can’t really do shit but they have strong neutral and offensive options and in turn can pressure the fuck out of Nash on his knockdown, basically just had to pick a spot where I could go nuts and try to maintain it.
I didn’t have a problem against Chun but when I played against Alioune’s Chun, I realised Instant Air Legs would be a problem, might need to hold onto V-Guage for V-Reversals to get out of that pressure otherwise you’ll get fucked over.
Yeah smart usage of his vmeter will be key in certain matches. My hardest matches were necalli and Chun. Necalli can reaction dash punch your fireballs and his pressure is insane, against these 2 I tried to maintain fhp range or c forward range to slowly chip away and then go ham on a knockdown to try bait a reversal for crush counter punish. I like Nash a lot!
i agree with Vega so far. that’s the toughest matchup i had the entire beta but i didn’t run into enough claw players to figure out what to do.
Going to the London SFV event tomorrow.
This’ll basically be the final build (or the absolute closest to it without being released), I’ll try to post up some changes here if I find any.
Yeah my first match against a Vega… ENGRAVINGS lol that shit may as well have been button checks.
@CriminalUpper lucky you! Wonder if F.A.N.G. will be playable too. Hopefully they didnt nerf him (too bad) but given the rate that all these pro players keep flocking to him and doing well at tourneys and racking up win streaks online it feels like only a matter of time.
goddamn you should be able to juggle after EX tragedy assault in the corner without VTC… it sucks you have to spend meter and then another meter to follow up. let me do neutral jump HK in the corner and then do swag shit after.
This is my compilation for the majority of the matches that I played during the beta. I enjoyed the higher level of competition overall. Excuse the gamertag lol, I was still lol’ing over that Kanye West X Amber Rose tweet situation.
Edit: Oh and @Windalfr I take back what I said about the V-skill juggle reset lol, got alot of mileage out of it hahaha.

here’s a small collection of my matches from this past beta. I couldn’t save about half of the replays I planned to record because i did something stupid, but I’ll show what I salvaged.
replays include matches against Smug, Tampa Bison again, XsK Samurai, and more.
I stopped playing after Saturday night, ended with around 4100 LP. was jumping around from rank 1-22 during my last few hours iirc, no idea what was my final rank during Sunday… stupid work ;_;
FANG is confirmed to be playable since his embargo was over yesterday apparently. I’m now hearing legit this is the final build but can’t say for sure till I’m there
OK, Nash felt largely the same, the only thing he lost was the VSkill reset in the corner… Not the worst nerf he could’ve got I guess.
Yeah the corner v trigger was mildly useful and very fun. That wasn’t staying.
@CriminalUpper that sucks lol I was starting to really like that reset. Are you goin again? I had questions
loving Nash so far in the beta, got up to about 1k lp during the beta, not the best Nash player out there but i’m really liking his kit in sfv. you have a solid nash @Windalfr
any tips and tricks or secret Nash tech for an aspiring Nash player like myself? learned some new tech by watching the videos you posted, the reset in the corner after ex SS using vskill was awesome.
see you guys in 2 weeks
amazing nash gameplay @ windalfr
That is depressing.
So I imagine at this point that Capcom don’t want Charlie having any kind of resets without burning V-Trigger (HK-SS, VTC, j.HK, V-Skill/f+LK).
I want to understand and assume it’s most likely down to his offensive rushdown that they don’t want him potentially stunning someone from one hit into reset but it just seems like everything fun and unique gets taken away from him.
I know the game isn’t out yet so people can’t scream “Omg, so nerfed” so that’s not what I mean, but having these cool and interesting toys given out only to be told “Oops, that shouldn’t happen. Have some boring stuff instead” is frustrating.
I’m at the point where I kinda wish I had played someone other than Charlie so I wouldn’t feel the pain of him losing his cool stuff.
I feel like Charlie when he’s looking at the picture of Guile in the story mode trailer.

That corner reset with v-skill was fun for sure.
I hope they will bring it back with day 1 patch.
I’ll be fine without the reset as long as there are no other nerfs… In no way do I trust that the build there was final, though. So, we’ll see.
