How am I supposed to deal with Karin as M.Bison? Almost every Karin player just stays in my face with medium pressure and everything I try to do to counter poke or get away ends up with me taking massive amounts of damage. Holy shit it's so frustrating.

I went to training mode and made the Karin dummy do cr.MP > st.MP > the special with two upkicks and there's nothing I can about it except super? Am I missing something?
 
I figured it out, but I prefer choosing my character every time. I really hate this change from IV.

I like to carousel between character. I'm not a character specialist.

It should default to highlighting your favourite character with costume and colour but still let you change things up if you want. Sounds like the current method flat out selects the favourite for you.
 
Everyone is pretty simple it's just that most people don't know how to develop a game plan.

If you like Nash and how he plays go for it. Watch this since it gives a basic and effective strategy with him:

OH WOW. I didn't know he stole some meter from that move. That's pretty damn awesome. Does his V-skill/eating Hadokens do the same?

Edit: OH SHIT it does. :o!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Just was having a pretty good match with a PS4 Ken and then in the second half it lagged out of its ass. I was losing like 20 frames at a time.

PS4 users, please, use an ethernet cable. :(
 
I don't know whether I should feel guilty or laugh at being able to see when you are responsible for knocking someone down a peg division-wise after winning a Ranked match.
 
I never used Karin in the beta. Was pretty much a Nash only. But oh man, Karin is such a beast. Was totally worth it getting beat again and again when I picked her up. I'm up to ultra bronze now thanks to her. Can't stand Nash right now, he seems so weak compared to her.

Did I imagine this or did they at some point say that you would be able to see/filter out users on wifi?
 
Quick question, I am considering getting the game on PC but I want to know if the Madcatz TE2 that I bought for use with my xbone will work. Does anyone who plays on PC use this stick?

I am sure it will work but just want to be sure.
 
Gave up maining Ken, he plays differently than SFIV and I cant unlearn the muscle memory for it... Everyone sees my game plan coming and I get wrecked.

Switched to Karin, am winning consistently now and will use her till my girl Ibuki becomes available...

Yeah I mained Ken in SF4 and he def feels different
 
What are the essential Ryu combos in 5 and when should I use them? There are a lot of combo videos online but most of them don't seem necessary, so I'm trying to narrow down what I absolutely should learn.

What I have down:

cr.MK, fireball
jp.Hk, cr.MP, LK.tatsu
forward HP, HP.Shoryu (or doing this into a super)

I've been using MP > c.HP > M/HK Tatsu as my damage dealer
Depending on which version you use, you either cross over them when they're down or you don't, which makes for some good mindgames. Works after a jump in as well, but you have to be really close for it to connect. Doesn't seem to work after a neutral jump.

Otherwise, keep it simple with stuff like
MP > MP, HP, HK if they're standing or
MP > c.MK > Hadouken/Tatsu.

I'm not an expert player by any means and there's probably more optimised combos out there, but that's the baseline I've come up with in training.

Don't forget to work V-Trigger cancels into your combos if you have the bar

Pretty sure Karin's lk upkicks are -5 on block, so you should get jab into whatever Dictator gets off a jab, maybe lk scissors?

None of Karin's specials are safe except the shoulder and a charged V-Skill. Lk Mujinkyaku is -5, so you need to find a normal and range where you can punish it. Also, use your V-Revesal! Don't block forever!
 
did you already play and level up with him a bit? You only get 2000 from story mode, the rest comes from leveling up a character from scratch to level 8 by doing the story mode

well im sitting at 36k so... wheres the other 4k?
 
had alot of fun with local yesterday, i love that Ryu has Parry. i sucessfully parry'd Bison's CA multiple times! dont know if that will fly online
 
God I can't tell you how good it feels to be at a point where you can consistently punish jump ins with DP. That sense of hesitancy that I got when someone jumps and I was trying to make my hands work in that time span is gone and now I'm consistently antiairing people. It's great.
 
This lounge shit is garbage.

Can't invite because names aren't found. There's only 7 rooms listed, so you have to keep on refreshing and hope you find the right one, etc etc.

I could have sworn I tried LP and LK last night and they either didn't reach or got blocked, but I'll try it again tonight, thank you! If I can hit st.LK I can definitely cancel that into LK scissors.

I have an execution problem with the V-Reversals, I tend to get EX Psycho Blast instead of the reversal. I just need to practice it some more, thanks!

But if that Lk Mujin is -5, and Dictator's LP/LK are 4 frames, doesn't that mean it's a 1 frame punish? Or am I misunderstanding frame data? Is there a resource with up-to-date frame data?
 
I've been having no problem. Getting matches every 10 seconds or so.

havent gotten any match, ranked or casual, in over an hour lol. what the fuck is going on with these disparancies
 
Wtf, so I get kicked out of bronze league back down to rookie, but now it's no longer matching me with other rookie players? Just watching my LP go down and down and down, I'll be back to 0 soon.
