Høly shit, really? It has a long startup though iirc, but it has decent range. Definitely gonna experiment with this.
Don't let the negativity fool you, Capcom made something amazing here. Just needs a lot of love and polish.We are already on 2nd OT? Damn and I havent bought the game yet!
Ladder anxiety...haven't felt that since StarCraft 2 lol.
Yesterday I was so scared of losing ultra bronze I just played casuals >>
But I need to do that anyway, no point playing ranked right now when I don't even know how to fight 50% of the cast I barely see like FANG, Mika, not enough Karin's..
Lol think I lost 15 matches in a row. I don't have what it takes to finish close matches
Yeah. It's not fast (23f) and is -4 on block, but the amount of pushback means you can't even DP it on block with a 3f DP. It's very hard to punish, moves well forward too. One thing to be mindful of is that you don't have combo opportunities off a df.HP CC because of that same pushback; you can basically just get either LP Disc or CA (you can VT before doing either of these if you need to). If you are at point blank range when you hit with it, you can also VT, cr.MK xx EX Disc or EX Valiant.
If a FANG wins Evo I will cry
If a Necalli wins Evo I will cry

Are there any high level players using him seriously at the moment? It seems like Necalli is the popular choice for new characters at the moment.
capcom releases basis character vids for everyone, Kens went up recently where it shows you all the uses for his moves and combos.

I'm also a a Ken player if you want to add me. OmniCloud
How can you guys hate fighting FANG so much when his theme is so good?
Fixed
Sonicfox was using FangAre there any high level players using him seriously at the moment? It seems like Necalli is the popular choice for new characters at the moment.
I'm pretty neutral towards him, but that theme. My god. It's so elevator music-ish its amazing.

Any european Necalli or Rashid players up for some matches? I really need to practice those matchups. I am ~1000 LP Karin.
Created a lounge with the password 6657 feel free to join if you play other characters as well though. I would also appreciate some tips for those matchups in general.
Don't be hating son...ftfy
Rashid's theme is overrated shit, I'm sick of hearing it.Y'all are a bunch of crybabies
Rashid has a decent zoning game himself right? Use that more, he's not pure rush down but seems to be a decent all-around character IMO. Anyway the Rashids that beat me usually did so with frame traps, and a few tricky wall bounce mixups, go to the lab and see what's Rashids frame trap setups and go from there. You really shouldn't be all about Rushdown though, you can back up a little and bait a DP every now and then.
C. HP safe on block
Round house safe on block
Stand MP & HP safe on block and MP leaves you at +
And using his wall jump in the corner can be tricky and confusing to block against
Anyone noticed Birdie flicks a booger that causes damage in his standstill animation?
Thanks. Seems like more of a footsies tool for fishing for counterhits and overheads.
Xian and Alioune are apparently dabbling with FANGAre there any high level players using him seriously at the moment? It seems like Necalli is the popular choice for new characters at the moment.

But seriously Ryu and Ken are really good here, but requires high level to win with. Neither of them have gimmicks. I think Vega or Chun will win, but Momochi will place if he plays with Ken.
Vega without his claw is just sick though. I think Bison may intimidate more than anything, he doesn't have that a good a wake up so once you get him down, u can bully him. Really can't call Evo at all, really balanced game. And Laura seems to be limited only by the players potential to outwit the opponent she deals massive damage!
Can't wait to watch the pros honestly.
What's your CFN? I'm a Rashid and I'll play you.
Rashid's theme is overrated shit, I'm sick of hearing it.
Lol
Feels like LP gains/losses are way harsh too early on, like I'm around 1500 and lose 50-60 against 3k players while only gaining about 30 from an equal opponent. And there's what, 15 leagues? You already need a crazy winrate to get out of the low ranks. Though maybe that's me being a Dota guy where >70% winrates are much less common than in fighting games at similar skill gaps.
Messiah, just invite me when you are up. I'll be playing a few more hours.
Man, I'm playing so halfassed right now, can't get myself fired up and serious at all. Lost like 500 lp in an hour lol
That doesn't sound like the R. Mika way, gotta be fired up 100% all the time.

So I sat down today, after having a meeting with my supervisor cancelled, thinking I'd just play a couple of games and get my LP up to 1400 (from 1350 or so).
Not very far, shouldn't be very hard, as I haven't been losing a lot so far.
I win a game against someone of equal rank, gain 35 points, then I bump into a Vega with 2700 LP. He beats me, I lose 55 points. Alright, whatever, carry on. I beat a Ryu, 2900 LP, fireballs and footsies. He disconnects.
Back and forth with this bullshit for 15 matches.
I finish with 1420 points. Success! After 12 wins (8 of which where my opponent disconnected) and 4 losses.
My fiance was watching me play this set of games and she could see me getting frustrated with it. We were both sat on the edge of our seats anticipating the disconnect whenever an opponent got supered, or it came close to the end of round.
One of the guys even got a free round on me, as my controller disconnected, and he still disconnected at the end during my super on round 3, good lord, Capcom please fix this. It's completely killing ranked play, so many frauds with so many points!

I had the same complaint/pondering about the lp system. People just told me it makes sense because there's a hidden skill rating system
It doesn't make sense, the system in SF4 however made sense as it made it naturally harder to get high ranks with the need to have a hidden calculator running
