Me too. I'm pretty good at blocking but really bad at punishing. Impatiently waiting for the combo training mode.
I can play. CFN is FluxWaveZ.

I'm in the bronze ranks and I haven't seen a Sim since like Wednesday. It's definitely the rarest for me with maybe Fang second. It will be funny when one shows up and destroys me because I have no idea what to do.

I'm a Nash but it seems like Necalli has priority over everything Nash has to offer.

Yeah as a Karin, Bison just wrecks me too, I just don't even know where to start most of the time.

I got absolutely worked by a Vega this morning. Could barely even close on him. It quickly became about not losing perfect.

Yeah knock down vortex is dead.
Once Ibuki shows up I'm curious how she'll perform in this roster.
No one has a close enough tool set... Rashid? He's mobile enough to have vibes of Ibuki.

I think it's good to watch mid level matches if you are a beginner. Getting too wrapped up in ridiculous tech you can't emulate isn't as good as focusing on tech you might be able to attain.

Anyone know how to change your flag? I didn't pay attention to it when starting so it's the SFV region but now I can't change it :/
Marvel
could never
Can't.
Hey, just added you. Will invite you a few minutes from now; I'm Berutoron on CFN if you wanna add me. I'm a low-rank Cammy (750 LP).

I just added you to my list, since I assume you are in Texas or somewhere close to that too. CFN is SixMachine

Uh oh. Does't it use that flag as the starting point to consider who to match you against?
Seems like a big overlook by Capcom.
GGs! I'll be on more later, gotta tend to an errand.

Doubt it cus there are non flag options

If there a big enough tournament to warrant it, I usually make a thread for all the tournaments going on that weekend. The really big Majors like the Final Rounds, CEOs, EVOs are usually made by other people.
GGs! Your Karin took me by surprise; I would have liked to have played more to adapt a bit.

The flag/region is not used for matchmaking, only connection quality settings and LP
I'm not actually, I'm in Europe. but we'll try anyway. If the connection sucks, we'll drop it, no big deal. Creating lounge in about 10 minutes.
It's pretty noob so maybe you were surprised by the basic stuff? I'll be on for a long set tonight. Add me if you're on PSN.
Except Ibuki IS coming to the game this year...
Even if she plays like SF III, works for me...
I never utilized her vortex to its fullest anyway... I noticed pro players used her quite differently than I did...

I was playing some battle lounge and casual matches recently, and it made me realise how messed up this games ranking system is.
I don't mean the rage quitting, that shits a problem, I mean the actual ranking system and specifically, the rank distribution.
Specifically, for example, my LP is 1800, I am Ultra Bronze, my buddy, with 600 points, is Bronze.
I am ranked something like 14,000 in the world. My buddy on 600 points is 130,000.
Between two subranks of the bronze tier ranking, we have over 115,000 players. I'm guessing 'bronze and rookie' encompass about 90% of the online community.
Don't you think that's uh, a kind of silly? We have a ranking system that fails to differentiate 90% of the community from one another, telling them 'they're all crap' basically, and then only the smallest of percentiles distributed across the rest of the ranking system?
It would make much more sense if the ranking system were percentile based, representing your place within the community, as a percentile. As it stands, for many people it doesn't feel like there's any sense of progression, or even indeed, the capacity for progression. For my friend with 600 points, even if he gets better, he will most likely never reach silver. Even if his rank reflects that he's progressed enough that he has gone from being in the bottom 10% of players, to the top 20%, his rank will never reflect anything but bronze.
Personally I think that's pretty messed up, and simply put, isn't very encouraging. The ethos of this kind of game, Ryu's fighting spirit, encourages us to fight on, learn from our battles and become better fighters, but none of the games systems appear to reinforce, or encourage that.
