Was playing ranked and was good to find a Gief that actually knew how to use SPD in footsies. Mhike2stronk. He was pretty good.

Then I ended up fighting another master Gief who basically just pressed lariat and s.HP in neutral and lost like Gief should vs Falke lol.

Ah, so you finally fought Mhike2stronk?
Did you beat him so I can poke fun at him at his stream tonight? :stuck_out_tongue:

Nah he 2 0d me. I should have had him first match but Iā€™m sure theres something I screwed up. Second match he got me good

Does Gief actually have a winquote against Falke or was there only blank space?

Oh well, that is a pity, specially because he hates playing against Falke.
I will still bring it up when I join his stream after I lose at my weekly tonight.
Heā€™s a very nice fellow and a great Gief player. Highest placed Gief in EVO this year.

Yeah definitely no doubt if he could 2 0 me with Gief heā€™s definitely gotta be one of the best around. Too many Giefs that only use SPDs for mini vortex and shit, but he has the OG grab people out of buttons stuff down.

Then after that I fought RobTV and barely lost the set to his Karin. First and second round of the last match were both time outs. I choked up and should have just moved in to chip him out.

My 3 and 4lbs springs got here today.
I installed the 4lbs spring on the stick and It feels better, but still a bit light.
Letā€™s see how it will do during my weekly tonight. I may need a heavier spring if this doesnā€™t perform as expected.
But at least it isnā€™t as wimpy and light as that silly 1.5lbs spring I was using before. The stick actually goes back to neutral now. Most of the time.

Iā€™m going with King, Angel, Vanessa.

Overall I enjoyed learning Vanessa, Joe and King the post.

ā€¦ I can dash 95% of the time now with the 4lbs springs. :sob:
And doing 2xqcf doesnā€™t end up in jump most of the time.
This is wonderful!

I saw your Falke against Krone, no need to press anything vs Young Zeku, heā€™s a frame traps machine. Like 95% of the cast he can do shit after a throw, keep that in mind. Falke VT1 seems pretty weak, if isnā€™t hitconfirmed, but VT2 looks even worse so I canā€™t help with that. Good stuff btw

Got a grandmaster Mika in my first match on my weekly, probably the best Mika in Brazil, lost, beat a Gold Gief/G and finally lost to a super diamond Laura.
The Laura player outplayed me hard. I couldnā€™t keep him out.

Progress! And it was fun!

I almost beat him the last time i caught him in ranked. Always do good neutrally then he gets one jump and gotta hold stuff.

Donā€™t really even need v trigger to beat zeku since she outranges him pretty bad and can just win off life leads. If Falkes opponent has an honest trigger its easier for her to win off her neutral alone. She definitely has worst matches than him, but get frame trapped 2 times and then back thrown and itā€™s done lol

I was fighting another Zeku a few days ago that had these gimmicky post hit setups into command dash. Wasnā€™t ready for any of them since no other Y Zekus do that shit and got bopped up

SFV is a bad game because people are always whiffing buttons without getting punished.

(I donā€™t suppose anyone has footage of Sirlinā€™s A2 Rose, do they?)

Older games had some really fast ass recovery buttons where you couldnā€™t whiff punish them. Like in ST you canā€™t really whiff punish any of Fei Longā€™s buttons unless youā€™re right on his ass. Otherwise thereā€™s a range where he can whiff c.MP and c.HP all day and thereā€™s not much you can do about it other than look at it unless you throw a fireball or reaction super.

A2 Rose and 3S Chun are like the epitome of the ā€œgood luck whiff punishing themā€ characters of the old days. They threw buttons around and you had to deal with it. Like shotos have to walk right up on Roseā€™s shit to have a chance of whiff punishing her so better off just chucking fireballs and DPs most of the time.
