Just won my first match! Against a rank 7000 Nash!

Spoiler

By way of yolo super on wakeup

.

Can someone help me to some ryu 101, the more scrub flowcharty the better. I'm a total beginner, I know some of the theory but have none of the experience. I can

cr.MK xx hadouken
target combo
j.MK, s.MP, target combo
f+HP, target combo
f+HP, shoryuken xx super

but I have no idea how to implement any of that.

st LK is really good, c. MP has quite some range to it, but it's not nearly as good once it hits like it is in IV. Don't let them jump, MP DP is a great anti air (but c.HP looks cooler), and I'd change your target combos after st. MP in your combos to c.HP xx special.

And don't be afraid my sweetheart, this is the way to be more strong, go for some hard reads, parry, HP DP, PUNCH DUDES IN THE DICK.

Oh, and st. MK is an amazing poke, comparable to Evil Ryu's st. MK in IV.

Just press buttons and remember you hit harder than most characters. They should be afraid of your moves, not you of theirs. Punch them.

b. HK has a great animation too, I can't quite find really good uses for it other than hit it a bit delayed on the opponent's wakeup, but it looks so cool.

I've been seen lots of ryus use mp to space me out. Can also be linked into another mp then special.

 

[A Sentient Keyboard]

From what I hear c.MK xx hado is poop, use s.LK instead

But don't you want to start with a low attack? Or is everyone blocking low all the time anyway so it doesn't matter?

I'm away for a bit but thanks in advance for the advice everyone.

 

[Gbraga]

Yeah, it has surprisingly good range, high priority and can be linked into another MP, c. HP, c. MK, or c. HK on counter hit.

Great move.

But don't you want to start with a low attack? Or is everyone blocking low all the time anyway so it doesn't matter?

st. LK is a low.

Or at least it looks like it should be.

But don't completely forget about c. MK, it's a pretty good poke, just don't always cancel it into hadouken, or you'll get punished.

Play reactive when you're beginning. Keep them away with fireballs. Don't throw them if they are in the distance to jump over them and land a jump in combo. If they jump at you - mp.shoryuken. If they whiff anything, learn reliably one decent damage combo. When somebody jumps at you, it's not a bad idea to forward dash also, you just glow under their jump arc and it puts them off. That's about it.

My go to easy punish on whiffed shoryukens is HK croush counter on their recovery into CR.HP xx HP.Shoryu

Because you can throw fireballs, people ought to be coming for you so you just need to stick out good buttons to stuff their approach.


Wow I'm dumb I didn't know chun had an air throw.

 

[RockTurtle]

yeah about that ryu c.MK.

I mean, it's not great, but from the ranges where it misses, everything else would whiff too, except probably a sweep, but it's unsafe as hell.

EDIT: Well, st. MK probably has better range too. But you can't cancel it.

 

[K.Sabot]

Chun's cr.mk barely outranges ryu's cr.mk

barely.

 

[Vic-Rattlehead]

any one have a street fighter x tekken ps3 fight stick pro and it working on pc? works on ultra 4 dunno why it doesnt for sf5

 

[Marvel]

"Just press buttons" is terrible advice, that's how to get counter hit interupted constantly.

It's fine.

The beta not only doesn't support many different sticks, but it also doesn't recognize a stick in port 2 as controller 1. Ultra has no issues with that, but in order to play the SF V beta, I have to uninstall ScpDriver that I use to play PC games with my DS3, so the arcade stick will be the controller one, then it works just fine.

 

[Gr1mLock]

Those Bob Oblong hitboxes.

 

[raven777]

can't win a match now....

 

[Hag]

Whens Karin :l

 

[The Demon Headmaster]

What happened to the menu music from the previous betas? I don't like this new one.

Edit: oh it's still there, just plays after the new one finishes.

 

[KAL2006]

Just got on the Beta what the hell happened to the awesome menu music from the last Beta

 

[Gbraga]

Whens Karin :l

Yeaaah, Capcpom plsssssssssssss

I need my ojou

 

[Huw_Dawson]

yeah about that ryu c.MK.

Don't worry cr.mk warriors, Cammy has you covered. Play her instead.

 

[Gbraga]

She's boring. :C

 

[delSai]

So yeah Giefs pretty cool. Easily my favorite in the roster.

 

[BHK3]

How do you get past the "Title Update will now begin downloading" screen? I can't use my mouse or keyboard to hit close

 

[Stone Ocean]

Ok, I'm starting to warm up to Laura, bad voice and all

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

 

[Zerojul]

So yeah Giefs pretty cool. Easily my favorite in the roster.

Agreed. He's a blast to play, even against projectile spammers. Good normals, too. Really like what they did with him.

 

[raven777]

fuck lost over 10 matches in a low I think

 

[lucebuce12]

Just got on the Beta what the hell happened to the awesome menu music from the last Beta

It's still there, just comes on after the new music ends.

 

[vocab]

Ding ding.

cheers mate ill uninstall input mapper and give it a go.

 

[raven777]

at least matching is super quick now.

 

[Gbraga]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

Her japanese voice is ok, I got used to it.

Dat taunt though <3

 

[Stone Ocean]

Ding ding.

I WIN THIS ROOOOOOOOOUND

 

[Huw_Dawson]

For anyone struggling to beat Birdie, you can throw him quite safely on his wakeup. Other than super (and maybe EX command grab, but I've not tested it) he has no non-throwable wakeup options.

 

[fresquito]

So yeah Giefs pretty cool. Easily my favorite in the roster.

I came here tu say I'm not feeling him. His buttons are quite good, but his lariat is probably the worst in sf history and command grabs in the game have stupidily low prioryty and range.

 

[KAL2006]

I'm not getting any matches. I'm from Europe of that makes a difference

 

[Marvel]

It's fine.

Nope.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

You guys should pick Gief to fight against in training. Set the dummy to CPU and set the difficulty to 8. Enjoy getting FUCKED.

 

[Nachtmaer]

I'm not getting any matches. I'm from Europe of that makes a difference

This morning I was getting non-stop matches. It seems to be really hit and miss depending on your region.

 

[LifEndz]

NYC here. Was in training for about a half hour and got 0 matches. Have to go to work and it'll be down for maint when I get home. Hopefully I have more luck tomorrow. Anyone else think the game looks better than the last beta?

 

[Pachimari]

How do you get past the "Title Update will now begin downloading" screen? I can't use my mouse or keyboard to hit close

Hit B on your keyboard.

 

[K.Sabot]

Fought MLSwear and his Necalli is fucking reaaaaal.

Pretty hype cause he's one of my favorite US players back in AE2012.

 

[lucebuce12]

Can't believe I'm saying this but necalli is actually a fun character. Really makes use of proper fundamentals. I originally thought he was kinda gimmicky but I was wrong.

 

[delSai]

Laura is pretty fun too. She's probably going to be my go to character besides Zangief when i get the game.

 

[Marvel]

Can't believe I'm saying this but necalli is actually a fun character. Really makes use of proper fundamentals. I originally thought ha was kinda gimmicky but I was wrong.

Yes, he is decent. Far far better than some people on the internet would have you believe.

 

[Nachtmaer]

Can't believe I'm saying this but necalli is actually a fun character. Really makes use of proper fundamentals. I originally thought ha was kinda gimmicky but I was wrong.

Yeah, he is. He was the character that interested me the most once he got revealed (and Nash, but I wasn't feeling it once I played him). At first he seemed kinda boring and meh, but once it clicked, I started having plenty of fun with him. I'm still a scrub though, but I can manage.

It's so funny to see Ryus chuck fireballs when Necalli has a full bar. You will eat that super.

 

[TheSeks]

fuck lost over 10 matches in a low I think

Better than losing all your matches. ( &#865;° &#860;&#662; &#865;°)

At this point whenever the matchmaking pops-up in training mode I just put the controller down. The psychology of people not knowing WTF to do against a "dummy" opponent is something to write research papers on.

Then I get back to training mode. Those of you that haven't had matches, I wish you'd take my matchmaking.

 

[joekusa]

Dhalsim is here ^^

 

[K.Sabot]

Dhalsim up

 

[Zerojul]

Dhalsim is here ^^

Fuck, just when I have to leave the game for about 7 hours.

 

[Gbraga]

Ok Capcom, the boring stuff is out of the way now, release Karin.

 

[Hag]

Capcom press the button to release Kafin ffs
