No knockdown let him red focus into ultra and do standing mix ups.
No knockdown greenhand is cray.

Gief with Green Hand xx VTC sounds fun
Silly slow and no oki on grabs. He lands a mile away after SPD even farther than LP SPD in V. CVS2 Gief is similar.
He just got lucky in A3 that he has busted buttons and busted V ISM. He isn’t top tier for the regular grappler reasons in that game.
If I’m reading right SFV Finals will start 5PM JST which is like 3AM for me. 10 hours from now. Damn, dunno if I’m gonna stay up for that. I guess I could just grind ranked after a bit of worked until then, but the only person I’m dying to see play is Nemo (especially since in winners). Without Nemo I wouldn’t even bother being that desperate.
Nemo giving zero fucks about Sims VT1…
Lmao he was bathing in them flames…

He was bathing in full fire and full white health. Getting breathed on would have killed him, but Aegis is better than everything so he won.
The fact that he perfectly profiled himself under Dhalsim’s j.HP to do that was amazing as well. He’s obviously either labbed that in training mode or has done it enough times to YHC Mochi.

Top 8 gonna be at 10 AM for me, but y’all don’t need to worry, there’s no announcement incoming before, during or after it.
My waiting for Makoto continues, hope it’s worth it.

No, it won’t be
You’ll be hype, you’ll analyse the trailer, you’ll post multiple times brainstorming how X thing works.
She’ll release, you’ll find a flaw, you’ll find some other flaws and a problem matchup or a weakness to a meta option.
She’ll be stuck in low-mid tier, you’ll complain, you’ll say “I’ll probably stop playing until Mak gets better” and then you’ll finally be alright with her when she gets buffed the next season.

Speaking from personal experience I take it

of course not whatever do you mean :^)
Makoto should also vicariously help you with your problems with the game.
Firstly no one is going to take you seriously if you say people are running away from you and you’re using Makoto. Unless they nerf her dash into the ground and with SFV’s record she may have one of the best dashes in fighting game history.
Secondly it’s Makoto so you’ll have Makoto which is good. She’ll also be unga and so you’ll get to unga people down. Maybe it’ll be like Alex off meta unga, but at least you got it.

Easily one of my biggest problems with the game. It makes it so that over extending is very good and commonplace and strong, which makes neutral feel less deliberate and more new school throw shit at the wall and wait for it to stick, style of play.

I am gonna laugh so hard when what we get (if anything) isn’t makoto.
Oh I’m already laughing. No Ono or Blanka pockets = no nothing. Just laugh until the tournament is done. I’m sure they know America is going to be dead asleep or doing last calls at the bar by the time top 8 finishes.
Untill your opponent just plays Honda, Sim, O Sagat or Claw and you just die 8-2 and 9-1.
Decided to watch a BBCT top 8 match. The last match was pretty crazy. XF style comeback with solo Ruby heart vs 2 healthy characters with Resonance. With yolo super finish. I like how Team Demo Ruby/Gordeau is still doing work.
I don’t think you have the mentality to play a grappler. Think you like them, but don’t want to deal with the struggle they are.
Not wanting to struggle is fine, but top tier gief is still going to have hard match ups just on the archtype. Need to suck more hairymanchestsweat.
Also the SF5:AE facebook group is hella free to trolls. Almost not fair type of free.

Yeah, its all sorts of bad. But its funny seeing Justin shilling his videos there and random SRKers hustling their streams.
You know who you are. 
When the sun dies out and the stars are long gone, Nck and I are still going to be waiting for Makoto.
