SFV lounge: London we have a Problem X. SFV gave us the Burger King again

I’m just glad psycho lady getting a bigger wardrobe. It’s got a red color so I’ll be using it a few times on that alone. Pink is pretty cute too and she has this bluish grey color. Green with red hair Becky Lynch isn’t bad either.

Chun Li gotta slow it down for a little while to make room for the others. You know she’s slowing down when nobody memes her costumes anymore.

I am all for psycho lady getting a bigger wardrobe.
But I am disappointed this isn’t a 50s inspired costume or a Rosie the Riveter one.
Goth lolita just doesn’t fit Falke at all.

I just think of it as an early halloween costume.

S1 Chun I was pretty fine dealing with Gief. Especially since IALL was plus on block so you could viably make him block it and use it to break up v skill flex while still taking your turn. Season 2 Chun has to play more honest because no more anything that’s multi hit that doesn’t put her at disadvantage from a range she doesn’t wanna be in. Still shouldn’t be too difficult to deal with though. Especially 3.5 honest Gief.

Ibuki is more of an issue because she’s short ranged as hell compared to him and cant blow all her kunais just to fish damage off of him. Didn’t help that in S2 he could just lariat through bomb setups. AE he has to hold that fuuma shuriken and took more nerfs. If Ibuki does get in and he’s not sitting on super she can frame trap him and put him in standing reset mix up/pressure. Arguably easier for her to be close to Gief in V than in IV.

As for SFIV…dunno how you were having an easy time with Ibuki vs Gief. Ibuki only has tsumuji and a couple buttons to fish from a range that isn’t really optimal for her. While Gief can throw big ass buttons all day and one german suplex towards the corner = get rekt time. In V he doesn’t have anything faster than 4 frames other than super so you can wail on him while he’s blocking a bit easier. In IV if you dont land a hard knockdown you’re not getting without blocking range of him without getting sucked up or being tapped by one of his buttons and then getting sucked up. Or worse comboed since it’s SFIV and everybody can turn lights into the world.

These videos generally show how the matchup went and it’s basically Ibuki having to play with 2 or 3 things from a range and not being able to do anything flashy or offensive that she normally gets to. While Gief gets to be Gief.

I sorely miss Gief being able to just be Gief. :frowning:
Why did S3 had to happen that way?

Just too much grabber competition now. Even G trying to win the world grappler tournament.

What a fucking ugly game SF4 was. From it’s graphics to it’s animations.
At least it had Gouken and Hugo.

Blanka looks disgusting in SFIV and he’s supposed to be the scary looking guy as it is. Like his hair is randomly short and makes him look like a gorilla with downs.

That’s why I laugh when people say SF4 looks better, or that SFV looks too similar.

I’m like…nigga…are you blind?

gets a perfectly fine cr.lk that makes sense

explain

get Ono on the phone, send him an email. I’m angry.

Rashids always poke with c.LK so I think it’s generally intentional that they wanted his c.LK to be a low poke. Doesn’t cancel or chain into anything so definitely intended to be a quick low poke as opposed to the one like Cody or Cammy has that chains into bnbs.

FAT says Rashid’s c.LK doesn’t combo into his VT1. They should buff that in for S4 to compensate Rashid players for the nerfs.

? It chains into cr.lp like all lights do

It’s white privilege man. HAven’t you been keeping up to date with the world?

Frost if you don’t want to be locked out of the next waifu costume update stop bad mouthing this hit/hurt boxes.

I talked shit that one time… you know the time.

Now I can’t play :frowning:

Ah well then Cody sux

Also they should buff Rashid c.lk so it combos into VT1

One ragequit away keeps the doctor away.

One cool thing about Zeku is how quickly you can switch gameplans on people with him. Kind of like Guile but shitty.

Zeku is Guile for low tier heroes.

Someone on Reddit is trying to make a report card on every Tekken character’s strengths and weaknesses. https://www.reddit.com/r/Tekken/comments/9b1q80/codified_character_guide_proposal_workinprogress/

It’s similar in spirit to Chris G’s thing for DBFZ from a few days ago.

Anyone know if we have similar for SFV? Seems like it would be much easier to do than Tekken or Dragonball…
