Misread that. “Nevet not” = always.
She want top in Vanilla though. She also calm the hell down to high tier in USF4. But she was mostly top for a good chunk of her existence.

I really enjoy how MK11 gets all this negative feedback, really nice, really nice.
You can argure in retrospective that she was hella strong in Vanilla, it wasn’t realized back then.
Same how Gen was good but no one ever recognized him till Xian started to win with him.
Vanilla Cammy was dumb and not even close to explored. TK Divekicks, which got buffed in Super.
High damage. She didn’t even need DP FADC Ultra, cause DP fadc DP already did like 300 damage.
Character didn’t get recognition to be Top till AE2012, even before she was hella good and Japan tried to warn everyone about her. No one listed.
Well Ultra she was at minimum High, you could still argure Top 5, but Top 10 was she at least.

I don’t remember much of the USF4 V.2 tier list. It was Elena, then E.Ryu/Akuma, then a bunch of other people and a really large viable mid tier.
Basically.
Problem is I never fucked anybody over or did anybody dirty. I helped people whenever I could and kept good relationships with a businesses (unless those businesses decided to do harmful stuff to the scene or werent treating us right as customers).
So they’ll have to twist themselves into pretzels as to why I’m wrong or the shitty one.

If I remember right you did a lot of the legwork for your scene. I can say from experience the more central/important you are with something the more shit you are going to take.
The FGC has always been this weird mix mix of tough guy shit combined with hyper sensitivity.
I would say don’t let it bother you, but I know from personal experience that says easy and does hard.

The El Paso scene doesn’t deserve Pert.
In SF4, you were automatically top tier if you could crHP > crHP :^)
FUCK I MISS SF4 style Cammy her heavies had so much impact. crHP in SFV is just annoying but also just goes into VT activation >_>

So what is top tier in sf5 now?
I’m ready call akuma high tier much like bison instead of top tier. He’s good, but who’s winning or even consistently placing high with him.
For me top tier (results wise) means multiple people play the character and get top 3-5 with the character. And the only 3 characters I can think of off the top like are Rashid, cammy and ibuki.
The high tier characters have 1 to 2 players that seem to dominate with the character.
Problem with bison
801 with G
Punk with Karin
Fudo with birdie
Tokido with akuma
Smug with rog
Sako with menat
Sf5 really seems like a game were you have to find a character that just clicks with you. If you get lucky and it’s a top tier one congrats.
If your not completely comfortable playing your character your in for a ruff ride.
Cody had the most satisfying frame traps in SF4. Nigga literally put you in jail at times.

Or less.
One of the things that had caused problems for both SF4 & 5 has been trying to include lots of combos as a main gameplay aspect. SF still doesn’t have an honest combo system, so they have to mess with frame data to make it work. It might be better to move in the other way and put even less emphasis on combos.

It’s actually surprising how little we see of Birdie in any tournament. He’s Top 5 or at least very close to that tier, easy to use, a SFV character through and through (big V-Triggers, spammable EX moves, 50:50s) and yet you only see a handful of players using him.
I blame the fat midriff.

Breh, I’m gonna have to turn on SF4 and play around with Cody again.
He just felt like such a grimy character and I loved that about him.

What I loved about Cody and sf4 in general is that a low/mid tiers character can still be scary cause they all had their own special perk yeah Cody was considered bad but you still had to respect his frametraps or else you’ll be eating high damage counter hit combos comparable to a super, in that game you couldn’t press 2 buttons and render a character obsolete your skills and reads as a player could still carry you.
