SFV Lounge: No News after the grass, 10K POWERRRRRRR

I’ve been wanting to try a hitbox, but I feel like 360s and 720s would be a chore. 360s on a stick don’t take a lot of thinking through to understand what you have to do. Mix that shit like it’s nesquik

You adapt quicker than you think. I would t worry about that specifically.

I will repeat my comment on Granblue characters.

They all look like generic anime characters from a mobile phone game.

Yes I am aware of the irony.

I don’t think there is an irony there, it’s just truth. That’s literally what they’re from.

Ranked is so trash sometimes. Dunno why I waste time playing it.

This was definitely my experience and I’m not especially skilled at this kind of stuff. Honestly takes a day or two to get adjusted, after that it is more refinement and sorting out little stuff (I have some new goofy input errors to replace the input errors I used to have).

Also I’m with you about the characters. For me it is that the palettes get same-y. Blue/white chars, red/white chars, black armor chars. I think that is probably also a mobile thing though. Codify characters based on colors and all that.

Game was fun, s’all that matters in the end. :slight_smile:

How else are you gonna get to Warlord if you don’t play Ranked?

I think as soon as you hit GM going for the next rank becomes a legitimate joke. You’re looking at 100ish hours to get that many points, and that’s with a high winrate.

I would give the fuck up, it’s much better to just grab lobby matches vs. good players at that point. Your grind is over.

I don’t really care about Warlord, if I’m being honest. Ranked is just not that fun to me. Win or lose.

Has SFV ranked ever been fun? I like the feeling of ranking up but i never called sfv ranked fun

Truth.

ft2 sets vs inflated ELOs is never fun. and the downtime between matches in V ranked sucks a fat dick, you wash 10 people straight then meet someone good only to get another 10 bad matches. Should be options to convert ranked sets into a lobby, so you can both carry on playing each other.

Might just be the salt talking right now, but it can be really whack at times. Other times it’s usually not an issue. It’s been ass this morning.

also,

no real-time ping checks
the 1-5 bar displays are incorrect and don’t display according to ping correctly
not a forced ft2
you have to lock your character in before you search, which is fucking retarded

Idk I’ve always hated it is a lounge monster.

People denying runbacks when they barely win or just lose. Win a bunch of games then lose a fuckton of points to one low ranked player. Searching for a 5 bar game only to be fed a 4 or lower.

But really its just people constantly denying runbacks. As someone who just wants to play and enjoy the game win or lose ranked feels tedious compared to lounges.

losing the ability to counter-pick online or avoid bad matchups is prob the single most annoying thing I experience in ranked.

SFL literally introduces a ruleset that enforces counterbanning and counterpicking, but the ranked ladder forces you to lock in and commit to 7-3s blindly.

Like, I can play upwards of 4 characters at a GM level but there’s no fucking point because I still have to run into Sim/Guile/Ryu/Menat as Cody as soon as I press ready anyway.
