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

G is considered a big man, with Zeku we need to hit him deep or jumpins combos don’t work. Even YZ st.HK isn’t 0 oB if G crouch block it, but -1.

More of a comment on low hit stun on his jump in.

It irks me more how bad the elbow is on hit/block from the flip. Its a dumb ass move thats easy to stuff. Let me have something consistent from it.

Sakos daughter gotta be like 3 or 4 now, I remember sako had to drop out of a tournament because his wife was going into labor. But it’s super adorable that his family came out to cheer for him

Probably Capcom decided for it looking how Akuma can’t combo from a DF, but sometimes using OZ Flip is tricky even for me as a user. Zeku is well balanced, everything he has isn’t abusable. ‘If you have to outplay your opponent all the time, that means your character probably sucks’ said Punk. I agree.

Man, that platinum was so close! Got one win away from it and then as always I fucked up, got mad and lost 300 LP straight. Well, nobody seems to be playing ranked now, so i’ll chill for today. I learned that platinum guys can bleed and that’s good.
It seems AA c.HPxxVskill is not working anymore. I feel I’don’t get enough extra damage from Vskill to keep doing it. I basically mix myself up trying to guess between standing light and crouch.

If you’re the father it’s not babysitting, it’s parenting.

Bae is coming, I feel it.

All games had dumb stuff, but I particularly hate in SF5 the dumb stuff is all tied together in one big fat dumb pie to the face. Walk forward and can’t block unreactable ex move in time because of the lag, said ex move leads to insane corner carry and 350 damage. On block it’s safe - and if it’s not possibly still leads to a ham DP move.

If you think about the EX moves in 4 they had bonus property, but bonus draw back. Roses EX spiral was quick and fireball invincible…but was punishable on block. Moves that were not fireball invincible were usually safe on block or maybe had armour.

SF5 is the only game where you can make a great read on a Rog EX dash straight and actually get put in a mix up cause he recovered faster than you could land back down. Right…

Basically if Sagat, Sakura, Ryu , Vega and Zeku etc are all playing each other it’s probably the best SF. But theres half the characters just ported in from Marvel DBZ fighter 8.

Cody st.mk is one of the best buttons in the game.

It’s like a Karin st.mk at +3 oB. Dominates certain midrange interactions.

It’s a gotdamn Sunday Night Ryu fest in ranked. Ffs

It’s fun to win with Sagat
especially when i protect my skies

Sakura cr. Mk upsets me.

Had a dhalsim tea bag me after he took round. I gave him the ultimate disrespect. I ex DPd after ever blocked tatsu, put buttons all over his wake up and gave a return tea bag.

After stomping his ass I highlighted rematch then left.

Salty messages too good. Hold that shit nigga.
