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

I can stuff them with st.lp already, as I said before DFs aren’t really the problem for me, but reacting to the EX or well placed ones with a bigger punish, that’s because the input lag in this game is still a thing, especially on PS4. Days ago I’ve lost against an Akuma because I get a run instead of CA on his EX DF Palm, that wasn’t an execution error, this happen too often when you want to react 24/7 to things. Sometimes the lag stayed away,others fuck you up pretty big. Dunno about y’all, but reading the opponent intentions isn’t something I do all the time, part of my style include reactions. Predict everything is impossible and trying to do that is extremely stressful to me. One of the things that makes a character good in SFV is being able to let the opponent guessing what you’re going to do more than him imo. Some characters have that talent, others have limits in that imo.

If that shit would be true I need at least another hand considering how many times I press buttons just to change form with Zeku. Would be just a recipient for a disaster.

Wow, my rusty level 30 Sakura that I played for the last time in March is apparently good enough to make people ragequit or refuse the rematch if they barely get a YOLO win.

On a related note, playing her again made me realise again how shitty anti-airing is in this game unless you’re playing Cammy, Guile or Falke.

Is there a way to make plus/minus indication in training last a bit longer?
If i do a jump normal i cannot even see how plus it was. Or do i have to install frame trapped?

Are you an Akuma player from Serbia or Croatia something like that ?

His walkspeed is mediocre, his anti airs are average, and he doesn’t have autopilot footsies.

Also no reversal or 3framer, which i personally dont care about but it seems to hold a lot of weight.

You still have to think with the character. As for his braindeaad v trig, well ive been bitching about v trig in general since the game’s release and honestly they need to tone it down across the board anyways.

The character is definitely strong though and possibly even at top 5er

He is
8 characters

I know the site is persona non grata here but I thought this was worth the ire

Hmm…

what?

Yes. I hope i did not rage quit on you.

My complaints is exactly how brain dead and borderline stupid his VT1 is. You are saying you have to think with him, which is fine but you have an insane safety net to fall back on when things doesn’t go your way. I said in my post that regular G is fine but VT1 G is cancer.

I honestly don’t remember but i think we certainly played. I fully remember someone called S-Bojan who played Akuma vs me and was Super or Ultra Diamond, something like that.

I honestly don’t remember the specifics but the name certainly ranged a bell. Do you rage quit a lot ? lol

That is my pc account.
I try not to rage quit, that is why i no longer play drunk :smiley:.

When i boot the game, if you are black listed then you certainly RQ’ed on me, otherwise you probably haven’t lol.

My blacklist is really long, as i get matched with people from Africa a lot. I think that they removed the limit. I recall hitting it a long, long time ago.

The blacklist limit is still there, I was forced to clean up my list last week.

I agree but @Darklightjg1 is right. G is a fucking problem and I’ve been saying this since he dropped.

He gets 8 EX moves nigga 8!!! The conversions that he can get off this stuff into super is some of the most OD shit I’ve seen in this game.

Like he can combo his st.HK into super on an airborne opponent. G is fucking strong.

G with vt2 and lvl 3 Presidentiality is just as scary and will kill you faster.

He can also get it twice a round! Lmao

I remember awhile back when I kept getting paired up against this Brazilian Akuma. I usually just stuck it out, but the lag would get progressively worse the more we played. He was one of the first I added before adding countless more.

When I had to make room, I took the Akuma player off and saw that he hadn’t logged in for a few weeks. That basically told me it was safe to remove him. Declined a few 3 bar matches, went into training just to mess around, and accepted the 5 bar match a few mins later. Guess who I got matched up with? The fucking Akuma player.

I got put in an actual CFN vortex.
