He lags a lot. Is that jimmy?
Probably not unfortunately. Originally was gonna have some time but something came up. Normally have time on Tues and Weds evenings but this week went a bit pear shaped on me. 
May be able to hop on tomorrow for a bit in the late afternoon/early evening but even that will probably be tight. You gonna be around during the weekend at all?
I would like input from anyone willing to give it. I’m still very new at SFV and kinda figuring stuff out, and as a result am going through the usual early character crisis. I have been playing Kolin as I like the way she feels but I’m becoming less sure of her game plan (not that it’s bad just not for me) in that it feels a lot like you just do things until you can get VT.
Does anyone have any recommendation on character to look at?
I’m not sure I could define my preferences well, but here’s the characters I’ve played in games:
BB: Tager, Ragna, Mu-12
SF4: Abel, Oni
SFxT: Hugo, Asuka, Julia
3S: Yang
MvC3: Viper, Iron Man, Jill, Strider
KI: Thunder, Spinal
DBFZ: Goku (SSJ/SSB), Broly, 21, Piccolo, Vegeta (SSB)
PoBoySlim, PC player that used urien.

Idk, that’s a pretty diverse list of characters you’ve mained, so it’s hard to point you at just one thing?
Maybe Necalli? He’s kind of a solid jack-of-all-trades with all the major tools.
Only thing I’m really getting from this list is that you tend to play offensive or tech heavy characters. Which I should know from us posting during the Marvel days any way. Which is a good thing cuz it opens up a good amount of characters you could play.

Like I’ve been saying before birdie wasn’t nerfed they just nerfed his yolo playstyle no more random Mid screen or pointblank bullheads or bullhorns into VT. Also why do people keep ranking Nash so low? He got nerfed in s2 but they kept buffing him from 2.5 to now so what’s holding him back?
Regular bullhead is still safeish vs some characters in non v trigger, just doesn’t have armor.
Armor/trigger bullhead is punishable by everyone now, but you’re still going to get hit by it. It’s a full screen running armor move that anti airs. Can only not get hit by that so many times and Birdie has the health to take a punish or 2.

Cody changes were really big so they probably just don’t know how good he is rn
I left the smash games out where I play exclusively run-away projectile spam characters :).
Any specific thoughts on a character? Or is Kolin and okay fit and I should keep banging my head against the newbie wall?
You’re pretty much like @Akhos. You’re both scientific oriented players who play too many types of characters to give a real quick advice on character selection. You’re best just experimenting and see what you like. Kolin, Ibuki or Rashid sound initially good for you, but you might come up with your own shit. You’d probably like Menat, Cody or Zeku also since they’re all pretty tech driven. You’ll always know something someone else might not know or might not perform as well with those characters.
Nope, he was the Italian streamer Schiaccisempre, he’s trying to get Kage to Master.

Probably not this weekend after the holidays my schedule got a screwed up a little. We’ll keep trying I’ll be home tomorrow too. I don’t have a lot of consistency or even much of a heads up when I’ll be home so it’s tough to give you concrete days except for a day or two before I’m home my bad on that.
Well everyone is going to rate Nash low because it’s Nash and he’s one of the meme bad characters.
The Japanese will specifically rate him low for the same reason they rate G low. No armor, no EX reversal, no 3 frame GTFO

You did good, Kage’s VT1 setups seems mind-blowing, but 90% of them are fake. He knows people usually fall for stuff they still don’t know.

What is that weird thing Cammy is wearing on her legs? 
I understand and appreciate the input.
If anyone has some generic Kolin advice I’ll take it. It just feels like I can’t do much until VT2 comes online.
press st.hp, press cr.mk, keep yourself spaced correctly
