Man what in the actual hell is Necalli suppose to do against Cammy?

You can't play footsies with her. I tried against my buddy in a first to 10. Stand LK and crouching MK alone keep him out. He jumps he gets spiked.

GG. I took a few games off of him, but the rest was just a complete wipe out. Lawd.

Every Cammy I've beaten so far gets impatient and trigger happy with specials that I can punish. I think you just have to play patient and punish accordingly, never jump in or dive kick, her anti air is too good.
 
Oh my god that's 2 ragequitters in the last 4 matches, didn't get his id this time. Some scrubby Rashid.

No wonder I'm losing points all evening.

I feel you, man. It took way to long to break into silver with people RQing.

For people in Silver/Gold, does this get worse in the higher tiers? Please say no.

I'm barely in silver league, but I've fought a fair few Silvers/Golds and the RQers are almost always in those ranks. :( It's not going to get better until Capcom implements something to stop them.

Space your v-skills appropriately, be patient, and let her come to you. Once you get a knockdown be relentless with your strong meaty pressure.

That's weird that people would do it once they get to Gold. The only reason to do it in silver is for that trophy.
 
bunch of little snitches in the fgc. ive had like 30 people rage quit on me and i dont give a shit. let that incompetent sack of a company fix their own game via a patch.
 
Yeahhhhh I need to take a break, I don't know why the matchmaking (skill-wise) has gone to such shit for me in the last day or two. I'm at sub 1000 and it just matched me against two 2k+ players in a row who completely and utterly fucking destroyed me, and the last dude taunted me constantly. There can't be so few people on that it's being forced to match me against people that are literally 3-4x+ higher ranked than me. This sucks and is happening almost nonstop to me today especially. At least my bizarre lag problems from yesterday are gone.

Yeah I had that issues a couple of days ago was so frustrating.

Seriously? You could have made your point without calling them snitches or making it seem like they are dishonorable for trying to help.

That's like thinking that the game was rushed for Evo. People RQ for reasons far more obvious than a trophy: it's easy to do and it boosts their e-points/ego. If you think people are suddenly going to stop RQ'ing and take their losses because they reached a certain milestone, then: lol.

Yeah, I'm quietly laughing at people who are like compiling lists to send to Capcom.

It's definitely mostly Silvers, but I think I've run into at least one from Gold.
That's super weird. I guess you really got under their skin, so congrats on that 😁
 
Holy shit! Is that a thing?
I'm using that...

I wouldn't have expected that either, but now I will.
Thanks for the warning!

He wasnt expecting me to V-trigger out of the wakeup DP . Its got me out of so many tight moments when they decide to block the DP.

Managed to hit 1000lp on a 5 win streak , think i'll stay away from ranked until the disconnect issue is sorted.

lol..guys be careful with this, Ken is not positive frames off canceling a DP. seasoned players will just jab you out of it. It’s better to do it than the guaranteed crush counter though, but make sure you don’t abuse.
 
I wanted to play my first few rounds for today before going to bed. Won 1 game, lost 3, 4 rage quitters in successions. I would have time for a few more but this is just getting me frustrated. That march patch better arrive sooner than later and it better be good.

We had a bunch of time overs. He doesn't play like a normal Cammy player in that match up. He played a 100% footsies oriented match up, bit by bit, keeping me out. No random anything was ever thrown out.


Jab/throw/crush counter? She can't jump at you, so use that to your advantage.

He stayed right out of my CC buttons range, and would punish with low forward. He teched throws, and was psychic to challenge my command grabs.

Never jumped. No lie. It was all ground poised. Very few air spikes came my way.

Normal random cammy online = no problem. This? No chance.
 
Seriously, fuck Capcom. What's point of putting '4-5' connection as your matchmaking setting if they still give you one ping players?
 
Starting to hate Karin's anti-airs, they are completely unreliable. There's not even logic to it, they just whiff sometimes when they shouldn't. Too frustrating in a game where a jump-in gives you 30% without meter.

Lowkey this is why I dropped her as my main. They nerfed her stand fierce ever since beta 2.
 
I'm Silver, RQ's are a huge problem.

I feel like as soon as you hit the 1000LP threshold, the rage quitting becomes a real problem. Losing matches from this point and up is costly, so people bail whenever things look bad for them.
 
Fucking 3 out of my last 4 wins taken from me by RQ's.

LexxLuger was the last one to do it to me.

This is making me legit mad, I'm struggling to get pas Ultra Silver and I'm losing 75% of my points due to RQ's.
 
Yeah, youre vulnerable during the dash forward ken does so if they know whats up or just mash buttons you'll get caught out. I have yet to get punished for using this tactic , but i guess that will change as i face tougher opponents. I havent tried a DP but i'm pretty sure you can follow up with one. You can also repeatedly backdash which i think is more viable as kens dashes are pretty fast.

You're always punishable after doing that, so I recommend you stop doing that stuff before it develops into a bad habit.

A better thing to do would be to cancel your st hk into v-trigger because you're at frame advantage afterwards so you can go for a throw/frame trap.
 
My trips to Yoga class

Got some decent ranked matches in. Lost more than I won, but still came out with a little more LP than I started with. My time off in training mode and looking at tournament footage actually helped me. It seems like the general userbase has surpassed me in LP, but I'm getting the hang of Sim and stealing bonus LP because of the league difference.

Here are my last 4 ranked matches: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-J43ZyH5_0

I lose to a Ryu and a Necalli, but learn from that and end up beating a Ken and another Necalli. This was my first time forcing myself to use more of Dhalsim's V-Skill, and it's finally starting to click. I struggled against jump happy opponents before but I realize that if you prepare for their jumps by using V-skill it really throws their game off.

Improvements observed:
+ I'm using more v-skill than before
+ I'm getting the hang of using jab against jumps
+ Drills have become a part of my offence now.

Things I still need to work on:
- Not panicking in situations where I have a crush counter
- Using gale
- Not mashing throw when under pressure

If you guys have more tips for me I'd appreciate em.

Yeah, I've had fights against people that had over 1000 more LP than me the past couple days and I don't get it either. Isn't the whole point of rank based matchmaking to prevent that from happening? There is literally no reason why someone in Bronze or Super Bronze should be matched with a Silver player.

Ive also had a couple cases where I'm matched with the same player either twice in a row. Matchmaking has been even more wonky than usual lately.
 
Same exact reason for me. Don't even know who to main now. I just can't deal with no AA.

Biding my time playing Ken (like the rest of the army apparently) while I impatiently wait for Ibuki. The only character I've had eyes for since she launched in SFIII...

Praying they don't break her like they did her voice acting... :P

Also, I will happily say goodbye to her vortex if Capcom makes non-EX neckbreaker slide under fireballs... :)

I'm okay with this because it rarely happens, and when it does you lose less LP and gain more if you win.

Gief can make Karin's AA game outside of Ex rassenha a fucking joke. Jump in with four different buttons and either of them stuff one of her two anti-airs. Or come in with an empty jump and watch either whiff

It's a lot of fun as Gief :D

Sounds like you just ran into a good opponent, but nobody's perfect so there's always a hole in the wall, no matter how small.
