just play casuals for now, why even go ranked
Too many people jump into their past characters in SFV expecting them to be similar. I had zero expectation of that considering how different she was in IV from 3S. I just know that from 3S the main things I liked were Ibukiās walk speed and buttons and luckily in V at least her walk speed is among the best now again and her buttons arenāt that bad. Most of the them donāt have much range or priority outside of s.LK, s.MK and f+HK, but sheās more about counter poking and whiff punishing into getting the party started on a confirm. Kinda like a more honest version of the way she played in IV with better walk speed.
I had no real attachment to any of her special moves other than the kunais and I really like what they did with the kunais in this game. They have like Revenge of Shinobi platform game level utility, just have to sacrifice resource for it. Much more interesting than just shooting low priority kunais from the air all the time. EX kunais exploding is really cool also and sets up nasty frame traps.
Just focus on her normals and it should get a bit more familiar for you.
git gud
You asked for the essentials, we still donāt know the essentials. Hit the lab.
at this point essentials are:
1)dont drop your basic shit
2)repeat 1
You guys need to go over to sakos profile, heās been beating platinum players with just her Normals and Kunais. His patient style is quite a departure from how the others are trying to use her right now.
Idk wtf I am doing but Iāve never had so much fun gething my ass beat
Thanks for the update, I was stalking his games last night and they were all chun and karin games. Guess he started the grind this morning

Sakoās cfn is option9 for those who donāt know. His footsie game with ibuki is next level.
I love it lol. I love ālameā game play
Anyone having any luck with bmp as an anti airā¦ or keep trading with it and it makes it beyond frustrating.
^
i hate it. trade or CH if you try to do it deep. its miles worse than sf4. you have to do it like, really early.
i like her roundhouse as anti-air, i get crushes often.
didnt try cr.hp much
Yea, itās pretty bad in this game. If you trade you only get one hit and itās always in their favor. Also does ibuki get nothing off throw?
anybody else gets dp while trying to do HK command dash in neutral? its literally killing me.
walk forward, oh he whiffed roundhouse its to get inā¦fuck you game
sako is using dp / ex-dp for the AA, and against cross up attempts he is normal dashing under them
YOOO YOU CAN COMBO OFF CRUSH COUNTER SWEEP.
sweep-vtrigger-ex kunai - raida. 334 dmg ;o
I canāt wait till someone figures out how to play ibuki and shares the info lol. Iām at a lost but I find it hard to believe she is so difficult to wrap your head around. Iāll keep playing her because I feel like she has potential but Iām getting annihilated using her lol. Opening people up is a Lil frustrating lol. I feel like if you fight against ibuki you should always take the throw
Sorry if I missed it and its already been posted, whats Ibukiās health and stun rating like?
3 bars VT is killing her. She cannot deal damage without it.
her vskill builds a lot of vbar, utilize it in neutral. its really really good
Yet, it requires a lot of effort to build meter. Most characters can deal similar damage without it.
She is a great character for Desk combo videos, but I think she lacks in a lot of things.
