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

Can Kolin s.HP be single hit confirmed with any consistency? Seems like that was what Momochi was doing in his recent match against Fujimura?

I think you should be able to one hit confirm a special cancelable heavy for any character that you main at the minimum. Like outside of getting the heebie jeebies special cancelable heavies are pretty doable for one hit confirms. Momochi certainly would be able to, but luckily Kolin s.HP is one of those crutch CC buttons with cancel property so you get rewarded whether you have good reactions or bad reactions (just more so if good).

Young Zeku has a beyond confirmable st.hp.

too bad its super short and has doo doo water levels of recovery.

Thereā€™s this Indonesian GM Nash player, Aronmanurung whose entire game plan on Ranked is to T-bag then, hold back the moment you do anything, then whiff punish/jump in on you.

Every time I run into him, I fall for his shtick by dashing in/throwing a fireball/V-skilling in response to his tea bag. No matter how much I try to stay calm, the rage just overcomes, and I get 2-0ed easily.

Last night, I realised, the best response to a teabag is to WALK forward. Puts pressure on him with minimal commitment. Lost a game, then took a game from him.

Denied him the rubber match.

Wasnā€™t very classy on my part. Donā€™t care. Gonna take my little victory and run with it.

Oh shit Ive played this mother fucker back in S2. You gota not do anything, he just waits til you do something then does some random dash. I think I destroyed him with Roo one time and dished out the taunt.

Basically I figured out pretty quickly that he just had high end reactions. So the matches once I adjusted was just a stare down.

If you play him, we might be able to play?

Think I matched once with you back in S1. Connection wasnā€™t fantastic (iā€™m in SG), but Iā€™m always good to try after 11 pm (GMT +8)

TOing having me move through a room full of vultures.

Somebody ask me on saturday about this.

I post this (unfinished sketch)jpg of a Rose thing I got at fan expo that was coloured/signed by the artist. Iā€™d post the actual thing but it was among the stuff that got stolen from me at fan expo :frowning:

Was easily the cheapest $ wise of the stuff I lost but in the end I think it bugs me the most cause it was the literal only thing with Rose on it I saw all weekend.

If it takes Rose making S4 for people to draw Rose again, then so be it. Plus would be cool to see what her new default design would be.

Urien can dash cr.mp,cr.lp xx H headbutt after a CC and if he hits you with charged st.hp he can still go for the old cr.hp combo

Yeah but doesnā€™t Urien have sort of some sort of cerebral connection involved like distance etc?

Rashid puts turbo cr.hp on and gets medium medium special KD. You know what would be a good mechanic, something that countered a crush counter, like a crush reversal or something.

So if you hit that at the same time you thought Rashid was Gona cr.fierce you could turn the momentum. I guess thatā€™s the thing with SF5 itā€™s missing that parry/focus ā€œI know what youā€™re Gona do type thingā€

Like Rashid you can 100% know heā€™s Gona do it, but the stupid hurt boxes put you in block stun. Dictator sort of shares the same type of thing. Spazz button.

he can always get a dash into st.mp,cr.lp xx h headbutt wich results in a kd and great oki for him no matter the distance and depending on the distance/charge he can get the cr.hp, itā€™s basically the same thing just with more options and a slightly slower button, both of them are -2 on block.
Honestly i believe that the game would be better without those kind of buttons that let you fish for CCs with minimal risk, Akuma is another one with his +3 cr.hp

They are jumpable, so not really a minimal risk.
Making them not be plus would help. You could also make them punishable,m. If that happened Akuma would loose the option of covering both wakeups and noone would use it anymore after blocked neutral jump.

they are far less riskier that throwing a fireball while being way more rewatding (if youā€™re one of those characters with good CCs that is)
