SF5 Etiquette

don’t taunt me i won’t taunt you

just dont rage quit

Its up to the player to learn how to beat a move or tactic they are having trouble dealing with. If you simply stop using it then you are cheating them out of the experience of learning how to beat it, you are hindering their growth. By doing that you are being a total asshole by keeping them from getting good. Getting stunned is a punishment for not blocking or retreating when you should and the same thing as above, if you are not helping them get better you are a filthy dickhead for hindering their growth.

As others mentioned before, if my opponent fails to respond properly to the same stuff over and over, they deserve the chance to figure it out. No way I’m gonna stop as thats the only way they can improve. I would be salty to take a win knowing that it was based on me having NOT to deal with stuff I couldn’t handle before in the match.

Well no that’s not the etiquette anymore.

Etiquette for me is :

If you lag you go back and throw lots of jabs, people usually understand and wait. If it’s really rollbacky you’re fucked anyways because it won’t go away so you will have to play it out but sometimes there is some short lag spikes.

Since the new option I rematch all the time, kind of a personnal etiquette of mine. Only if it was really laggy I decline.

And above all don’t ragequit but sadly not everyone respect this one.

@radamanto

Some people are giving you good and advice and some people are fucking with you.

Here is the etiquette: Win. Do whatever it takes to win. Stunning your opponent is a GOOD thing. If your opponent can’t “reply to a lame attack”, do that move 1,000 times and win the match. It’s not your fault if your opponent didn’t study enough to learn how to defend it. The idea isn’t to have a close match, the idea is to win.

It’s really patronising and condescending to not play to win using all the possible tactics. Rage quit is the only no no as that clearly breaks the rules. Rematch is optional, I only decline it if the connection is terrible.

my etiquette is to fuck your head up and then taunt before I wipe you out

The game has a lot of rock/paper/scissors to it, so if I can beat you perfect by spamming fireballs then I will do that. No offense, but it’s not my fault you don’t know how to counter that.

There’s nothing in terms of gameplay I refrain from doing out of respect for my opponent. I will, however, never taunt him for being not as good as me. I do taunt occasionally when I run a second time into a ragequitter because those guys don’t deserve any better but that’s about it.

I heard that rape isn’t good etiquette to, but I’m american, and we play to win.

Hence why we da bess

You are not american, Pedro.
And “we” have never been the best either.

SF5 etiquette is the same as the standard gaming etiquette:

  • Never rage quit.
  • Never insult your opponent if (s)he can listen to you (this includes presential matches, of course).
  • In presential matches, never do anything that might disrupt your opponent’s attention, such as screaming and pushing.

Everything else is permitted.

clearly they are better at rape in Egypt. "Hey look a white girl with a camera crew!!! lets go rape"

I was born in america doe :sad:

but marvel bro

what is this baby shit. It’s one thing to talk shit during a match, its another to talk shit after

During a match: Unacceptable. Outside a match: Only for joking purposes and never exaggerating.

The second and third rules can be summarized as “Never be an asshole to other players”.

Go read Ann Landers if you’re so concerned about etiquette; this is a game and it’s played to win

  1. Don’t rage quit
  2. If there’s lag, go back to your corner and wait
  3. Be respectful to your opponent
  4. Don’t rage quit
  5. Be a man/woman and never rage quit

dude, talking shit during a match is fucking acceptable. Get this baby shit the fuck outta here.
