Snake seems to be the only Gief player in the world right now…which is kind of a shame
Any word from Itazan? I haven’t seen/heard much about him at all during SF5
Rage quitters don’t even wait for the match to be over to quit. I had two quit on me for just having the life lead.

Snake Eyez had another wonderful performance with Gief last night. We also see him adapting quickly with the use of his V-Trigger setups and V-Skill usage against Afro Cole’s Sim(although he lost). I’m liking it.

Gutter Magic (KI player) has a decent Gief.

Gief and Ryu constantly floating between useless and top tier.
More proof that the tiers are super compressed. Seems like alot of chars just feel…“right”.

We’ve had the game for 10 days, there isn’t proof of anything.
People thought Blanka was good in early SF4 and that Gouken should be banned when console dropped.
We can evaluate tools in a vacuum right now, but matchups have a long way to go.

AA is a momentum shift.
You can go for damage if you have a move which does that (only some characters), or you slap them out of the air and while they’re stuck spinning in the air you dash and get to eat up a lot of ground for free. Or throw a projectile so they have to land and immediately block, keeping them out and whittling them down.Ppl think DAMAGE DAMAGE DAMAGE waaaaaaaay too much and forget about every other advantage which allows for more damage.
yeah i was at a casual session yesterday, I hit st.hk crush counter with vega, st.hp xx claw switch. Then ex command grabbed off the air reset. Then did another dash in command grab. Now I could have just done like ASE for max damage but the positional advantage I got off the standing reset was too strong.

I really hope the patch info coming in the next few days has a huge list of fixes.
*added shop
*added arcade mode instead of trials because we couldnt find enough combos

It seems that Itazan is playing Birdie

Whoever Tokido plays is top tier.
Everyone else is mid.

Did Karin just perform Cammy’s Hooligan flip?
Nope, that flip was elegant.

Arcade is way better then trials…the hell you on?

Nah, just one of her gimmicky ressenha-followups.
Anyone else not seeing anyone using V-reversal?
I’ve taken several people by surprise when using it. Even got a win from it once last night.
Really seems that the casual player-base isn’t even aware of it.

Most of the playerbase doesn’t even know what VT is.
Some are just not as good as others as well. I will use it when I am not near a corner as Rashid, but I am not cornering myself using it.

This is gonna sound dumb, but how the hell are you people saving replays to YouTube? Is that a PS4-only thing or what?
I use MSI afterburner. It’s free and a simple press of a button when I want recording to start/stop
Interesting. I have an MSI 970 but never thought to look at some of its perks. I’ll look into it tonight.
afterburner is just a little program they’ve had for a long time now.
OC utility but I guess it has some other nifty functions now. Works with at least any ati/amd gpus. not sure about nvidia.
With a 970 you could also use shadowplay.
Just played Ricki’s Chun and I must say it’s pretty hard to deal with lol.
