SFV Lounge: Makoto is coming for sure. F2P definitely. RIP Pertho's doggy

If punk gets his shit together it’s his tournie to lose. Having said that, the way he was looking even I could take some games off of him.

There are very good players I don’t think he’s yet been exposed to who’s styles could trip him up.

Powell/machabo/crusher

And then he’s got Nemo and oil king to maybe deal with. Not impossible for him, but he’s going to have to be the real punk, not the guy afraid of pressing buttons and second guessing all his choices.

He need to learn how to deal with pressure, that’s it. And, for the love of God, staying out from Twitter during tournaments. He’s still a kid, but he need to work on his mind asap. I mean, NL Akuma didn’t look like a treat, but he missed a lot of punish.

She’s still fucking mid tier, not bottom 5, lmao. All mid tier characters struggle to get top 8.

She’s also one of the few characters in the game to never make a top 8 at a major in 4 seasons, with the exception that the lther members of this very exclusive club don’t have people going around says they’re fine

Edit: I don’t wanna sound like I am whining, but I know it’s exactly what it sounds like.
I have moved on from the character and the game a while ago. All I want to make people understand is why Juri players complain. It’s ok for a character to not be one of the best on the game ever in the lifespan of a game, Juri isn’t the 1st and SFV is not the first game to have that happen even in the current age where we have balance patches
What is annoying it’s people constantly saying she’s fine and shit and the complains are unjustified, she has glaring flaws that have not been addressed since her release, and for the people that have stuck with her and saw everyone around having at lwast had attempts at being helped, even if they did not work

if she’s not bottom 5 then who is? Like, yeah she isn’t bad, she’s basically the same as she was in s3 but some characters got better and she stayed the same.
I can only think of Sagat, Alex, Ed and Vega being worse than her with a bunch of character like Fang, Laura, Chun and Nash being around her level.
We can argue that these characters are not bottom 5 but is just being better than Ed something to be glad for?

The match with Stormkubo/Jyobin was SFV in its purest form…

Also, season 4 has barely started.

Yes I was waiting for someone being dumb enough to point that out.
She didn’t make it to top 8, Infiltration played Menat, using a character for a specific MU (after losing with your main) is not getting to top 8

he won the Manila major with Juri alone tho

Nope I was waiting for you to state that stupidity. You said she didn’t make top 8. You DIDNT say make it to top 8 exclusively.

You are changing the goalposts and AT BEST being disengenuous to prove a point.

If you really were trying to make a point you would have said “outside of infiltration, who used other characters to make top 8” not what you said. So pls sir, stop.

She’s made top 8 and has won a major.

It took the evo champ to do it, but it was still done.

Idk if he played her for all rounds even his first ones that are basically guaranteed for him to win, he may have used some fuck around characters for the early matches… idk.

But lots of players use different characters for different matchups. Punk used Nash to beat Itabashi/itazan at evo 2017. Shit happens.

I think she’s better than every character you named. And hell yeah being better than ed is something to be happy about.

Could she use buffs? Yes. Everyone outside top 15 could use some buffs. Is she better off than quite a few characters? Hell yeah.

Bottom line is Juri is fucking solid and the real trash characters can only fling shit around.

@ZioSerpe

Juri has top 8 appearances and even a fucking major. Stop with the lies.

Cammy not top 5 any more it’s the darkest time line for Cammy mains, now they don’t get to see half of the top 8 play their character every tournament and have to settle for 3.

Whatever you wanna believe,.
I honestly omitred infiltration because to me make to top 8 meant to get there.
I did think of mentioning the infiltration case prettt much using the same exact words you would have liked me to use, but I thought I could have baited someone into the exact answer you gave.
I was kinda surprised it was you doing that though.
I the bait was there to another fish. Said fish took the bait actually but you beat him to the punch.

For how bad Cammy is this season, she sure got played a lot lol.

Can’t wait to see the character tally this year.
