I just lost 65 points against someone with more LP than me, is that normal?

 

[Ferrio]

Snakeeyez also said Laura will get destroyed by Gief.

I believe it. Him and Birdie are a nightmare as laura.

 

[Moaradin]

Everytime R. Mika gets me in survival hard.

Every. Fucking. Time.

R Mika 44 is easily the hardest one in Survival mode. She fucking sucks.

 

[mentallyinept]

Yes you will typically lose 65 against opponents within ~1000 LP of you.

 

[wrongway]

Huh, so apparently you don't get a local copy of your replays? I went to watch a couple and I'm stuck at "Connecting." I feel like the game's telling me to go to bed lol

 

[skLaFarebear]

Have to stop trying to do Laura's anti-air command grab on reaction. It never goes well and it's so ass. I just gotta st.mp FFS.

Snakeeyez also said Laura will get destroyed by Gief.

No question.

 

[levelplane]

Bison is beast status

Ha, certainly felt like it when I've played against him. Maybe I'll give him a whirl. Thanks!

That Ryu Laura Mika block is fucking brutal.

I love her qcf+hp. You can make someone's life miserable if you get them in the corner.

On reads it's fucking great. I've destroyed people with it when I read the jump, especially in the corner.

If someone jumps on me in the neutral, I've never gotten it to work ever.

I rarely take hard reads on it. Least it recovers fairly quickly if you whiff.

It's tough coming from being a Hugo player when I can just spend meter to destroy someone as soon as they jump. I can't stop people from repeatedly jumping in on me no matter what I do.

 

[Sheroking]

Alright, need a hard counter for these Laura players. Karin gets fucked (or at least, mine does).

I heard Vega is good. Anyone concur with that?

 

[Romars202129]

Here is a question for you guys, right now, who you think has the best CA in the game, in terms of its use for the character combo wise, neutral, or a tool that they can use?

The ones that hit in the air for sure in my oppinion.

 

[SneakersSO]

I feel like they're getting ready to patch the game with all the server problems today.

I imagine they must have done a change to their server builds, at least to be able to go after ragequitters the way they have. Either that, or affecting ragequitters is having unforeseen affects on the servers.

 

[Romars202129]

You try the v trigger trick? When you have it, pop it when you see them jump, and you then have all the time in the world.

What has science done.

You folks maining Laura? Would be good to exchange some notes/vids some time.

Re: Laura v Zangief
Bad Giefs are easy to expose, but if they've got some chops (literally) they can stuff pretty much everything she tries. Gief's neutral game seems too good for her relatively stubby normals.

 

[Gr1mLock]

i kinda wanna see a mika necalli swap.

 

[skLaFarebear]

I really don't wanna waste a v-trigger activiation on an anti-air, unless it's to take the round or something. I'd rather use it to extend the target combo if I can.

 

[GootecksShimmy]

Science just made my night. XD

Played N0M4D on his stream with my Necalli and lost 5-3. Played with my Bison and won 5-2.

His Laura is super solid. I hate that my best character isn't even someone I'm remotely interested in playing.

 

[Neoxon]

Request for Xeteh

Can you do Karin's "I can see right through you" victory animation & her taunt as well as Rashid's taunt?

I got nothing for that match up. Like, don't fireball if you're somewhat close since his HK can destroy you through it.

It's just a terrible matchup for Laura until some new anti-gief tech drops.

The anti air does less damage than what's added to the combo?
Huh, anyway you up for some games dude?

 

[FindMyFarms]

Well, I know what her normals are and what they do, but I need to know when to use them instead of just going 'COMBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO' when I'm nervous. I mean, I know most of Cammy's combos, and am good at doing them, but I'd like to open things up in terms of getting to them

Well when they say figure out, they mean how to use them. Combos are just optimization. You can't actually just decide to combo someone lol.

 

[Ferrio]

I think I hang onto my v-trigger too long. I feel like most matches I've wasted it, and something like an AA would of been a great time to pop it.

Hell I didn't know you can't be counter hit while dashing when in V-trigger mode.

 

[Edgeward]

Looking for an opponent.

ID: Suplex

Ggs. Don't know what happened with the lag but I tried to crlt al del and the cpu went black.

Not sure why I kept missing all the meatys but it was good practice for Birdie which I have barely seen online. ggs again

GGs. I think someone's wireless started downloading updates here. Sorry about that.

I could feel your Mika getting stronger as the matches went on. You gotta be more aggressive wit' dat bitch.

 

[Edgeward]

haha, thanks. I was getting frustrated with missing the meaty throws and such and letting you get out of the corner so easily. Plus I am unfamiliar what is safe/unsafe with Birdie and that damn dolphin is so hard to react to. Would love to play more again later and get more familiar with the match up.

 

[Sarcastico]

Dolphin is invisible.

Sure, send the invite.

And yeah, especially if you got super or if you're going for reset with an ex fireball.

That's kinda nuts, I didn't know about that.

I usually try to pop my v-triggers and use v-reversals more often, but I forget too. It's something I need to adjust to with SFV.

 

[Romars202129]

Dolphin is invisible.

Up for another? Let me see if I've improved at all.
Edit, sry, skla is back!

 

[Bishop89]

Why not just watch videos or look at some combo threads on SRK? The trial combos in games usually suck for actual matches.

I need to practice myself.

Watching wont help me.

SF4 tutorials helped me a lot

 

[Edgeward]

Dolphin is invisible.

Well that's useful to know. guess the only option then is to neutral jump

 

[CrackpotDesert]

Yea--...

Oh...ok...

 

[Durden77]

All of my matches have been laggy as hell tonight.

 

[Sheroking]

Has there been an update on where we should send ragequitter vids? I've sent four today to haunts on twitter, but I doubt that's where they are meant to go.

 

[dot]

I actually managed to get a 11 win streak with Ken

lost to a Vega right after cuz the lag made everything teleport all over the place

Search your ID here.

 

[Astral]

I finally saw beat Normal Survivor as Cammy and just like Karin, it wasn't worth it. These bastards saved the best colors for Hard and they know it.

 

[Sheroking]

I bet there's a bug with birdie where opponents are seeing long win streaks that are neither real nor raqequitters. Like, the server is telling the opponent something that's not true.

This is the second time I've ended one, and the fourth time I've seen it mentioned in the thread.

 

[skLaFarebear]

GGs Romars. Getting super tired.

Your necalli got a lot better since we played. I also got really bad lol.

 

[RM8]

Today I did better than last time, I'm very slowly improving with Karin Right now I'm not sure if I'll focus on Sim or on her. I love Sim but it seems like you can't be a good Sim if you prefer his old turtle style, I don't think I have fully adapted to his new self. Has it ever happened to you guys that despite a massive buff, you find yourself missing the older, much worse iterations of a character?

I am afraid of change!

 

[kirblar]

I believe it. Him and Birdie are a nightmare as laura.

Your blender should help vs Birdie at least-abusing his bad wakeup is how you win, but the risk/reward is really lopsided in that matchup because Birdie has to connect w far fewer solid hits to win.

I prefer SF4 Makoto to SF3 Makoto.

I much prefer SF4 Ryu to SFV Ryu.

 

[Romars202129]

Yea--...

Oh...ok...

Offer back on if you're still interested!

GGs Romars. Getting super tired.

Thanks, those were some ggs for sure. Thats one hell of a combo, I see why you save for it..
... But that part about being bad with jump ins. I'm sorry, I was like a dog with a piece of meat there, couldn't help it.

Nah, it's better off I get exposed like that for when I check the tapes. I'm just gonna lock myself in the training room soon and do nothing but practice AA's and escaping cross ups for several hours.

 

[CrackpotDesert]

Offer back on if you're still interested!

Yeah, let's go
