I’ll be honest, I have no idea when the F Kens are playing any one match up. I get losing to Gief or Guile; characters that have really unique gameplans and tools. But other than ken been doing the same nonsense to me regardless of which character I play.

We are running out of arguments, so why not starting to argue with each other. The game is in a good place now balance-wise, but something to wake up the FGC will be necessary imo. 5 characters are coming and honestly would be good even for the CPT if the players have time to explore them and why not, use these characters sometimes this year. A reveal at Evo would sounds like a farewell tour to me before focusing on SF6, but I prefer 5 more years of SFV than a rushed up next chapter tbh. Maybe Capcom want to make their move after MK11 reveal, who knows, sure thing this wait it’s killing the S4 hype almost completely, 4 months of just costumes is more than enough.

I’d make the whole Zeku row even. Other than that, I agree. Ken is one of those characters like Mika, Kage, boxer or necalli where even if it’s a losing matchup the chances of them rolling you off one touch are extremely high. They do what they do no matter who they’re up against. (Minus gief cause gief)
Ken is definitely over nerfed though.
09er friend - I hate sf5. It’s such a bad game.
Me - why?
09er friend - it’s too easy. It doesn’t take skill.
Me - try menat?
09er friend - nah too difficult.

Also gotta remember ken does not have a 3 frame button. Fang and a few others are not fun matchups I imagine.
Menat felt so boring to me when she came out. Character just feels bland with no cancels from orb normals.
I need at least one combo ender like Falke KK.

Makes sense. VF and Tekken allow you to netplay on their cabs also. Makes it so you always have competition whether someone is at the cab or not. Plus you can’t really blame them. The average guy going to the arcade probably just wants to play whoever is available and the cab just came out like a month ago. Not really much time to establish a hard base of offline people. That requires it’s own niche and clique.
This is also an issue of netplay becoming too stable as in Japan they are not going to be complaining about the netcode since no one is more than some miles/kilometers out so CFN isn’t stressed too much. NRS people can sit and chill at their homes and have a virtual arcade with Cannon netcode also. Getting people to play offline definitely requires a culture to be established even in somewhere where it’s dumb easy like an arcade

You can cancel orb crmp and it combos into Orb L + H from any range (closer up regular orb tosses work, V-skill can work but it’s inconsistent)
At the end of the day in SF4 all you need is a KD, then go for the specific setup/vortex on the opponent and the match is done. Who had a character with a dp don’t even need to think too much before mashing one if he had meter,FADC and you were safe. Don’t get me wrong, trying to emulate Sako doing fancy combos was fun, but whoever knows SF history even a little bit knew that SFV would have been different. Here we are, keep fighting or go home. I have more good memories with SF4 than SFV myself, but I have to admit that with the latter I’ve learned some things I didn’t do it in 7 years of SF4 and with SF6 I will learn something new. The love for the challenge is enough to keep me still interested in SFV and who leaves will come back soon or later.
This is Falke’s new dash animation and costume for upcoming easter.

Anybody who feels SFIV is superior, go back and play it online.
Also:
Elena, C Viper, Blanka, Seth, Yun, Evil Ryu, Cammy, Akuma and Ibuki would like to say hi. If you’re having a fit over EX Tackle XX Aegis, SFIV will ruin you. Imagine this:
Akuma lands a cross up Tatsu into Cr.Rh. He then does a DF DK which crosses up, and leads back into the same scenario once again. Do you want that? Can you handle that?!
Was just a missed shot at SFV, at the end of the day SF4 is a zombie game right now. I still think Capcom waited too much for an arcade release, now the bigger part of the Japanese playerbase have no reason to change their habits. I mean, I don’t see why someone like Trashbox need to play at cabs after 4 years online. Probably to gather more people, who knows.
Uh, yeah, they added delayed wake up.

I mean you aren’t wrong but i hate having to burn a bar for a regular BnB.
There isn’t anything wrong with the character she just isn’t for me.
Man i hate Delayed wake up. Nothing breaks the flow of the match like a guy laying on his back doing nothing for 5+ seconds.
It’s -8 on block lmao. Really wanna bet on that tatsu?
