Aye well on my way to that then, got a bit of a blister now hoping it hardens soon!
Man, after having played Mika since beta I am kinda loosing faith. Her buttons are so bad compared to pretty much everyone in the roster. It's pretty painful. All these shenenigans and mixups are useless with buttons like this it feels sometimes.

Either the Dualshock 4 is even more poop than the DS3 or my ability to pull off charge attacks reliably has gone down the crapper, can't even do much with a casual FANG as a result.

Reminds me of Guile subforum after Daigo used him

For Bison, I try and cheese a knockdown at the very start of the round. He is okay to fight against in survival if you can set up a cross up attack into a combo that knocks him over again when done. If you find yourself out of this balance, just spam a special that has any kind of priority until you feel safe to try and cross him up again. His anti air isn't the best but he does try to use it, he wont always connect with it.
I think her buttons are legit you just need to know when and where to use them.

Dear sweet fuck, her dropkick
Still, easily telegraphed and dodged if you know what you're doing.
He was still able to block though
I don't know, but there was a Mika in the top 8 (top 16?) for one of the fighting tournaments yesterday. It was a smaller tournament but it was still neat to see.

lol, try to punish? nah, it's plus on block
the upside is you can fish for crush counter if they're bad @ spacing it.

Apparently, I do not.
I feel like an idiot when I use that by accident. It looks so goofy.
don't worry, it's an annoying move even if you adapt haha
Depending on your character, you can low profile it consistently with a crouching attack. There was a Chun-Li I went up against who would always do some sort of low kick right as the drop kick landed over her, meaning she wasn't put in block stun and could punish accordingly.
Alternatively, just jump over it. The point is to never block it.

How is rank calculate in this game? I'm just curious because sometimes I'm getting matched - in Ultra Bronze - against users who have roughly the same or even a few more points than me but yet have a lower rank to the tune of like 40,000. When I do get matched against people closer to my rank, they're all high Silver and Super Silver and almost always blow me away.
WTF is with this matchmaking. I'm now finally in a solid Ultra Bronze rank and the game is giving me 4000 und 5000+ LP opponents lol
It's all about LP
The rank is just slow, it takes a while to catch up.
It's all about LP
They did an amazing job of turning wrestling moves in to a legitimate moveset with Mika. I'm not even a big fan of wrestling but her moveset makes me smile.

Yeah, but you managed to have it ready every time my FANG or Rashid was getting off the ground.

I dunno man, he seems bad, especially if the opponent gets in on you, he's so slow and don't think he has any reversals out of pressure.
Think Mike rose uses him though, I'd look up his matches on YouTube
Oh right, you were that opponent! Yeah, on knockdown, it's pretty much Mika's game there. Aside from those compromising situations, though, the MU is pretty much FANG and Rashid's, as they control the momentum in the neutral game.

There's something really satisfying knowing that the best Street Fighter players in the world are having trouble with Survival mode as well, regularly using fight request to run it back against the CPU.

Are you me or what?
Yeah, that's the number one reason I should REALLY drop Laura and this bad habit of throwing cr.MP all the time...

Mika's a momentum monster. If you can't get out of her rhythm after the first knockdown, you're looking at a stun, and a corner carry coming with the next combo.
She's the only character I can get consistent perfect KOs with in Survival.

Just proves how hard it is
Well, uh... good luck with Mika, heh.
Only when it's no longer the neutral game and Mika is finally all up in the opponent's face. Other than that, Rashid and FANG are definitely the characters who control the pace of the game. While it's the neutral game, Mika has to carefully approach and defend all their crazy zoning stuff, and then she can finally play when she's on the offense. At that point, yeah, it's definitely about maintaining that momentum.
Haha, that CPU was playing dirty.
Yeah I watched Momochi fight through Hard survival with Ken. It was intense, he had to fight request his way out of a few fights at the end.

It feels like I should use V Skill more, gain V Meter and force action out of my opponents. The fact that he has traps and responses at any range makes it seem to me that Birdie players want people to attack them.
