Yup just lost 5 in a row with Laura. I'm about to just try and finish normal survival for some more colors until I figure out a game plan for her.
 
So the battle lounge threw me and my friend out and when he tried to invite me to a new lounge it crashed his PS4.

FIX THE DAMN BATTLE LOUNGE CAPCOM.

How the hell do you expect to update to 8 players if it can't even handle 2?
 
What the fuck I need to do to beat Karin? She is killing me every single time and I have no idea how to block or counter her crap. Looks like she has 10 legs. Kicks everywhere, what to do to get the hell out of me?

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)
Click to expand...


1. Counter-hit St. (Standing) Mk, st. Lk, lk tatsu on standing opponents.

2. St. MP, cr. HP, ex tatsu or ex shinryuken - I use this combo after cross-up mk or after I stun the opponent. If the cross mk is blocked, I would do a block string of St. Mp x2, (St. Mk or hadoken) to build space. I feel comfortable at mid-range.

3. Crush-counter St. HK, cr.HP, hp shoryuken or ex shoryuken. - Crush countering oppenents after they whiff dragon punch is the safe route. I don't expect to do this in every match for a while.

4. Corner St. Mp, ex tatsu, ex shoryuken.

5. combo into lk tatsu into shin hadoken on standing opponent or cr.HP, lk tatsu shin hadoken.
 
Do not whiff a shoryuken or reversal on necalli. Crush counter-Crouch HP- Heavy stomp- EX DP does 351 damage and 601 stun. It really makes the other player think twice about mashing out that shoryuken. Bison is the only character I have yet to face so far, figured he would be more popular.

It was mentioned on the last page, but Karin's specials are all unsafe on block except for shoulder tackle and fully charged vskill. Lk upkicks are -5 on block, Ryu should get st or cr Mp of that into a combo.

Know your enemy, pick her in training and spend some time trying her out.

Then record her doing things that give you trouble and learn to punish them with your main.

Try to get into a position that allows you to jump in on her. Her anti airs are very situational and she has a hard time getting out of pressure without risking an EX Ressenha which will absolutely get her killed if she misses it.

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?
Click to expand...

I any other street fighter game it would be considered a 2 frame link, however this one has a 3 frame input buffer (That means the game repeats your input for 3 consecutive frames). This would make it a 5 frame punish assuming you're putting the input in up to 3 frames early. So just mash it, lol.

And in other news, I just lost my first online match in the most disappointing way possible to a laggy Mika. The netcode in this game is great when the connection is good, but is absolutely unplayable when it's not. I would have preferred to suffer an orange bar connection in SFIV than what I just experienced. >:(

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...

dont give up, Ken is legit in this, his run is deceptive and you have to use his dashes. Him and Ryu I thought were average but both are underrated. Nash however is top tier on the low, but has execution Barriers. My 2 cents.

Also lk lp Srk is an important Bnb for Ken, use it after AA and on his wake up sets ups after MK tastsu
 
Never knew Karin would turn out to be such a freggin tank.. she's the only character that consistently makes me question my own skills and triggers flashbacks of a 10 year old me getting bodied in SF2 at Chuck-E-Cheese

Alternatively you could try inviting me,

ID - DiscoShark
US East

Really I'm looking for anyone to fight in a lounge.

Will do, gimme a moment. Let's see if the invites work.

I guess it's working for me to some degree as people manage to join me (randomly, not through invites).
 
why does Infiltration keep shouting 68 after each win lol

watching him destroy people kinda bums me out ;_;
 
Just fought a pretty good Fang and barely lost, despite getting perfected in the second round. Was a breath of fresh air compared to all of the Ryus and Kens I've been fighting.

Thanks for that.

I always see the xx, and I read that means cancel, but what do you actually do to make that happen? I find that confusing.
Click to expand...

Just means you can press the next button (or command) right afterward, which is cancelling from one attach into another. This is as opposed to "linking," which requires you to precisely time the beginning of one move to coincide with the end of another for it to come out.
