The SFV Lounge: SRK is ALIVE. AE Hype is BACK! DISCORD going the way of DISCO

The thread title should be no dying thots allowed.

I love the fact that it starts with the character select screen music and only goes into the stage music after the intro is done. Alpha 3 is classy as fuck.

Character directions I don’t like
Ryu
Abigail
Chun
Alex

Character directions I do like
Kolin
Juri
Ed
Laura

Pookie blaming too much SF5 on his skinned thumb.

Sticking it up his ass and milking himself more like.

agree 110%

It really hurts man
Like I would do ex cancel and pain would just jolt through my finger and sometimes even make me just pause and wince

I’d try to pick things up just to let go of it right after due to pain

Worst part is I love fighting games and there’s no cure

I only play Waifu characters. Because of that lifestyle choice, I have way more character crises’ than usual since I restrict myself to 30% of the roster. If the waifu character I main isn’t working, I guess I have no choice but wait a few months till the next waifu bait comes out.

You guys should just play F.A.N.G, now half a character!

Damn man I didn’t know you were that pathetic.

Anyway Capcom killed Kolin, so I’m waiting for the next waifu to come out.

Sounds like the first time I got into dads playboy collection under the bed.

Y’all need to broaden your horizons. Limiting yourself to just female characters is…not something I understand.

You’re gay and mostly play male characters so of course you wouldn’t understand.

I don’t understand why Pookie is a cuck but I’m sure he has his reasons.

We should except each other’s likes blindly without thought or reason.

Full character in AE. Fighting him will be like a bullet hell now with V-Trigger 1

Had to jump back to correct this

If by terribly free you mean he has more options than people who have literally no choice but to block on wake-up because Abi actually has an option while has has VT up. - Alex, Vega have no options. Only Vega is terrible free tbh, even his super isn’t a get-out. Alex has no 3f, no armoured 1f move, VT parry isn’t 1f start-up, only super is his get-out. Vega has a 3f but super isn’t invincible so he has no guaranteed get-out options. Abi gets 1f armour in VT and invinc super. He’s about as bad as Birdie who I would say is pretty standard, not having a reversal or 3f doesn’t mean free.

Most pressure in this game has gaps of 2f, Abi can EX run through and it happens at high level so he can bulldog through mid pressure and get run mindgames.

st.lp can cover practically everything you need it to, cr.hk can duck under deep jumps if need be, cr.hp is big payoff.

Run dismantles neutral and deters poking.

Abi’s halfscreen st.hp hurtbox is all kinds of fucked up.

He has 50/50s idk what other mix-ups you require.

ā€œBut Froztey you are only saying dis because of BUFFS it has never been problem before xd!ā€

Nope I’ve called Abi a silly character from release, I remember Mocha agreeing and a couple other people. Since I playtested him and found out he was just a bunch of unga from what I thought would be a slow-moving neutral powerhouse. Please check my tapes.

My biggest issue is that his hurtbox is all kinds of fucked up for the neutral he offers, stuff like his standing hurtbox and his recovery hurtboxes from gigantic moves like st.hp. Gief’s st.hp hurtbox feels wider than Abi’s it’s crazy.

I used to be in agreement of his standardized hurtbox so characters didn’t get crazy extended combos on him but I’m starting to think that should be his downside for the range he’s granted.

@TWINBLADES checkin out season 3 roster

Explain, cause I see it the other way around.

Nope. I’ve played Chun(F) in every SF game including this one. I play Tsubaki(F) and Amane(M) in BlazBlue. I also played Decap(F) in my brief mingle with USF4, and I played Twelve(M) and Ibuki(F) in SF3. Peach/Shiek (both F) during my brief mingle with Smash 4. SFV is the first game where I play mostly male characters come to think of it. Abi and Rashid are just too fun :smiley:

My Abigail is leveling up now thanks to @ā€œEvil Canadianā€ and another reset video I found online.

Still getting mopped by online Bison, Akuma, Guile and a few others but I’ve made progress!

Why don’t you just wear gloves or something when you play?
