dat ibuki
umm, ive only been playing ibuki for a few weeks, essentially i played a small handfull of characters and i really could not decide on a main. so i decided to pick up a brand new character all together, and ibuki has always been a character ive loved but never took the plunge to learn her. but decided to take it and i love it alot so far! ive never posted on these forums but ive read and learned from almost all the stickies here, so i thank you all!
Doesn’t this annoying bish handle Bison’s bad/annoying matchups? I may pick her up. Guile, Gief, Honda, Cammy, Vega, Chun Li, DeeJay, Yun… and Cammy/Viper are just flat out annoying.
Also the post about auto pilot is wrong. The definition of Auto Pilot is Cammy. Snap, I’d pick her up and hold my hands up to being a tier whore, nobody can complain if you pick those characters and just flat out admit why. 
^ What are Bipson’s “bad/annoying matchups”?
The ones I mentioned. Some are bad, some are just annoying.
Ibuki does well against Guile, probably even with Gief/Honda/Claw/DeeJay/CViper, definitely loses to Cammy, slight disadvantage against Chun/Yun. But in order to even get a good matchup against Guile for example, you have to put in a lot of work. Her wins aren’t automatic.
I picked Ibuki in 3S because I liked her mobility, simple as that.
Oh I know she’s not an automatic win. I actually rage against Ibuki even though it’s in Bison’s favor, just because I lack matchup knowledge (online randoms haven’t taught me anything, same goes for Viper). I wouldn’t think she had a problem against Chun/Yun. Seriously? Seems like everyone loses to Cammy. Going by the new community tier list, she only has 1 bad matchup, since hardly anyone plays Dee Jay/Oni.
Ibuki has average normals, and Chun can easily dominate the midrange game for obvious reasons.
Ibuki also has like 10 different antiair options, none of which is a reliable dp like shotos have. This means she has trouble against most characters with a dive kick. If only she could chain her st.LP on whiff like shotos can, then maybe it might be better, but nope.
Ah I see now. Yeah, Chun’s pokes are amazingly annoying. Even Bison has problems and he’s the one everyone complains about saying “All you need is st.hk and st.mk”. Is her ex flip kick (dp?), even a reliable against anything?
I mean it has full invincibility, plus an extra 2 frames, but unlike Yun’s LK dp, it has a terrible hitbox where it can easily lose to stuff like Cammy’s dive kick and Sakura’s j.HP.
Granted those things are high priority jumpins to begin with, but if I’m spending meter I really should be getting something on the order of like Adon’s EX dp, or any shoto EX dp would be nice.
She needs an Oni dp! I’m still not 100% set on my secondary yet. I tried Yun at my casuals since he’s the only one’s combos I knew out of my options. Not gonna go to casuals to sit in training mode. Ibuki is still a choice even though she loses to Cammy. 
Well if you want someone who is supposed to win against cammy, you’re limited to Balrog, Dee Jay and Oni, according to the latest (community) teir list (excluding Ibuki because Buktooth is still to back up his claims).
Yeah, I was having a look at that list. 2 of the 3 are underused lol.
The game has been figured out for the most part already, with the exception of crazy unblockables and corner setups.
The logic is clear:
If you want to win -> "just pick a top tier"
If you want to have fun -> pick whoever
Yep. I may go back to learning Akuma. Going by that list, Bison isn’t even relevant.
What list?
I’m assuming he’s talking about the tier list.
I dunno, Thrillhouse did pretty damn well last night at the Arcade Relief tournament in socal, and he did it all with Ibuki. I think picking any high or top tier character is capable at the competitive level to win tournaments, although obviously you’ll have to put a lot more work into it.
Yeah, the new tier list. Abel and Honda somehow snuck their way into top 10.
Props to him for doing well. Are there videos somewhere so we can see the opponents he pwned?
