The Street Fighter V Lounge - Balrog Mains on Suicide Watch

LMAO, but Daigo “rage quit” not even a second after he got hit by that jumping round house, I call BS. He needed that one second to at least process that he got hit by that move, and also get up and turn off the console. Kappa

Good point there… Not so salty anymore - just sucks getting robbed out of a pretty decent win. Sad that the RQ frauds can’t take an L and have some integrity.

Ah fuck em’. Ranked is eh anyway. Once I get what I need from it I’m not touching it ever again.

Churning the butter going on:

walking around poking people with vega’s st.mp is hella fun. Until ibuki and urien comes in im staying with chun/karin/vega for now. They’re all so much fun. Now if the online karins would stop throwing full screen rassenka’s or whatever that would be nice because its just free cr.hp cc’s for my karin and then side switch mix ups.

A lot of ryu’s do random ex fireballs sometime back to back. rarely hits me. is that suppose to be viable tactic?

This isn’t the ScrubQuotes thread.

Is there a gameplay reason why in streams most of the matches are played either on the Brazil or the NYC stages?

I’m a little disappointed at not seeing Bustling Side Street being played on. That theme never fails to get me pumped up.

They’re playing on Bustling Side Street right now in the stream I linked above.

I think this depends a lot on the character you’re using.
For example: Grapplers can have a hard time with people in bronze league because command grabs won’t work most of the time. You can’t condition mashers, you have to be really patient in your approach and wait for them to do mistakes/unsafe stuff.

On the other hand, if you pick Ryu, fireball zoning and anti air moves/normals can be enough to get to silver without big problems.

Mika giving Sim a proper beating is icying on the cake!

my god. cali commentary is awful.
you guys may have nice weather and all that but good lord.
esports in full swing out there.

I finally managed to reach Gold in the endless sea of rage quits that’s super and ultra silver. I almost have enough FM to buy two characters.

Why? How would that change the game for the better?

Wait you mean to tell me it doesn’t matter what Char I use to get to Gold Rank?

Fuck this I’m bringing my Black Ken out

I thought Ken wasn’t evil?

Habit from 3S man…

Honestly, in SF4, whenever I did two random Ex fire balls from moderately close distance, the second EX fire ball almost always hit them and knocked them down. lol

You forget, people HATE blocking.

Apparently, Brazil has no lag.

starting to find matches more frequently, about 5-10 minutes wait time.

game has my location as europe on the map but only matches me against people thousands of miles away.

got matched with the same guy from canada twice.

still a broken mess.
