The Street Fighter V Lounge: Kolin is COLD HEARTEEEEEEEEED!

I play way below my general skill level in tournament usually, so i can see how it can be somewhat of an argument, but the best players really don’t.

@Windalfr is kinda similar in that respect, but it’s definitely just a skill we both lack. Staying composed in a tournament is part of being the best player you can be.

The majority of SF 30 year anniversary stuff won’t have anything to do with SFV.

We’re getting another anthrology collection y’all.

Just bought Rise of the Tomb Raider in the steam sale.

Damn, Lara looks so real.

Are you a little stressed

And I think that’s enough of Cammy for me for a while.

time to switch to a character with an actual mix up and not just pressure. Guess Laura until I can training mode that Ibuki hype train.

You think he’s played Guilty Gear yet?

Well…maybe he’s played that on PC or something. KOF probably not doe.

Zappa will make Xrd great again!

I wanna see Zappa in almost not 3d, but 3d goodness.

Last year I don’t see a single player dominating the whole year. First half Infiltration,Gamerbee and Xiaohai won 2 tourneys each other iirc, then the Du reign starts until now. Meanwhile some japanese won the rest. Some results looks were won by the players who were particularly on fire,like the reign of Infiltration comes to an end the same will happen to the reign of Du. Atm Knuckle Du is the best player around,whoever want his throne need to wait the season start.

Anbu Punk will take over and give us the heel we truly deserve.

They could easily build an anthology mode into SFV, it would be interesting to see SFII, Alpha and SFIII redone with the Unreal Engine graphics.

Would be better than that ST HDR crap.

Tell me 1 offensive option that Ryu has that is better than Guile.

He can’t use fireballs as a shield. That is great FYI…
He isn’t safe on blockstrings if he ends with Hadouken but Guile is actually plus after a boom.
He get nothing after a throw. Guile got even better corner throws.
He get to do a cr,MK into tatsu on a shimmy while Guile get UDK, cr.MP. FK

What is more flexible and rewarding in Ryu’s offence over Guile’s ? I get that people are talking about charge characters supposedly being defensive but clearly charge or command doesn’t matter in the offence department in SFV.

Ryu is shitty on s2, he most likely has the worst ofense up close off the whole cast.

U2 set play, ridiculous defensive options (during ultra) and her st.mk/throw mixup

Rose wasn’t really honest by modern definitions

she would suck without those things in SF4 but she doesn’t need them in SF5

well… s.MK hopping throws would be nice, lol

I’m actually perfectly chill

Not online yet

Ryu can shimmy with stHK stLK tatsu

I just dont understand the urge to crown somebody as best player. Thas a really good point feroce is making. Players get hot. Du is hot at the moment. It doesnt make him “the best”.

I remember in sf4 when infiltration was basically winning every tournament. Best sf4 player ever. Daigo was missing top 8s. Then they do Topanga ft10 and Daigo wins like 8-2.

Hell, i can remember when fuudo won evo, and they ask him who the best is. Dunno if daigo was even top 16 that year. He lost to marn or something, i cant recall, but thats who the evo champ said the best player was.

But whatever. Tournament wins is the only metric we have. Not even tournament wins tho. Your last most recent tournament.

So yeah, I’m done with this game for a bit. Vega is good now, but overall they made the balance all over the place. It’s like AE all over again where they purposely made Yun and Yang OP. There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason some of their balance changes other than “This character was picked in tournaments more than others”. I can’t fathom as to why they buffed characters that were already considered top tier, and nerfed others that weren’t considered to be very good at all. Combofiend was obviously smoking some reefer when he and whoever he was working with came up with some of these changes.

Season 2 is a mess, the game in general is a mess, and I don’t feel like wasting my time on it anymore. Adios.

It’s a really good game. I actually prefer the game play in Tomb Raider over Uncharted 4. Uncharted 4 has the better story though.
