SFV Lounge: I'm still alive. Sakura's alt is kinda cute

It should be a no-brainer. If you have to think about it, or anything, Abi isn’t for you.

Abi huh? Prepare to get shitty lopsided matchups. Bout to get trampled by Fang, sakuras and other nonsense. :thinking:

Well, maybe that’s how people do things in Brazil and end up with things like corn as a pizza topping, but some people like to think about things first!

Would giving kage a full screen or even 3/4 screen fb make him too stronk?

Abigail makes SFV fun. You get so many ridiculous situations so often with armour, parries, full screen crush counters, full screen whiff punishes with st.hp xx VT2 headbutt xx CA, it’s wild.

Learn how to use VT2 is my advice if you are going to pick him up, it covers for so many of his weaknesses post S4 nerf. Oki and chasedown are so good, not to mention the 2 combos into stun that it allows.

I was looking at Cool Kids VT2 stuff. Looked strong as fuck tbh.

It’s true, she gets bored fast…

It’s easily the stronger V Trigger in my opinion. People know how to deal with VT1 at this point. VT2 also lets you to break out of pressure safely with EX run punch on block xx activate or lvl 1 headbutt, which is way more important than the frame 1 armour that VT1 gives you.

As tempting as the game is, I’m holding out to see if they add the wicked and beautiful Amakusa.

Always loved that Samsho has characters based and named after real people. Hanzo, Amakusa, Jubei.

Still doesn’t make sense. Lights still go into lk tatsu iirc which results in a kd.

It doesn’t matter what you think. First round is tokido getting multiple jumpins blocked because of the mixup. Second round it’s obvious enough that sajam calls it out.

Maybe play better Akumas… idk. But good ones can force the mixup well, bad ones, can’t.

Not only is this a year old, but Smug kinda played like ass. No way he should’ve been getting clipped by all those fireballs and kinda went ham. First round of the vid he gets vskill punish on air FB and I mostly skimmed, but I don’t think he did it ever again.

Boxer v akuma isn’t a matchup you see often and I’ll happily take my own matchup experience over this. Especially since I think BrianF and Iwate are better boxer players than Smug.

You’re not even Master, bro.

Why should anybody listen to you?

Just a hardstuck diamond, my bad. :man_shrugging:t4:

Maybe if the game wasn’t so dry and I didn’t run into Gief every other match I’d grind up.

@ me when Twin makes master, that’ll get me motivated.

In other news, puppy Jax is still top tier. He’s un-nerfable.
