Just notice Ken's run is like a Tekken, MK type of dash run

Odd hybrid dash there, lol

Not winter brawl, Winter Clash in Cannes France. I doubt many international players are gonna go to France for a ranking event.

No big Es tournament Winter Brawl.
Come on son.

I'm glad Capcom made a character like Ken in SFV. A certain kind of new player (a Timmy in CCG terms) will have a lot of fun playing him and he isn't necessarily frustrating or difficult to beat by anyone trying to play "real" street fighter.

Those sorts of Ken players don't live for the points or the wins, but for the one moment where their EX.DP actually hits.

Man I am terrible at SF. When's Tekken 7.

 

[Shouta]

Really? I think Birdie is going to end up being pretty low tier. He has really weak offense. If he's against characters that he needs to get in on he struggles .

His offense isn't explosive but it's fine. He has all the tools he needs really and can get in by walking/leaping or using chain to make his opponent come to him.Despite being really good at mid and long range, Birdie is still a grappler and dangerous in close. Both command throws are there when he needs them for damage. Once he gets the knockdown, he has a bunch of stuff he can do with V-Skill, overhead, etc.

The only character I don't have as much experience against is Sim right now. Fang will probably have a hard time zoning Birdie because of chain and rush. Everyone else is pretty much OK.

whats the deal with the big crossover between nrs and tekken players?

The way normal attacks work is similar. Moves are slower and it has the my turn, your turn flow.

What's the trick to hit confirming, say Cammy's low forward into spiral arrow on sight?

 

[FSLink]

did no one realise there's a tournament mode feature in sfv until now?

Yeah kinda wish it would affect share/home as well.

But yeah, seriously guys, you don't go looking at all the options as soon as you turn a new game on?

 

[xCobalt]

At midrange, buffer spiral arrow every time you press low forward.

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

Rashid and Nash feel like the new Ken.

Players doing a bunch of random unsafe shit because it's flashy and cool and are annoying as all fuck to fight.

70% of my ranked matches this weekend were against Kens.

They were all pretty bad tbh. So many Yolo DPs!

The ken army is alive and well in SFV.

buffer the motion and practice against random block dummy. i think its easier to confirm off 1 button in this game compared to 3s.

 

[Sinatar]

Julio's ken is so spicy, I love it.

 

[Juicebox_FGC]

What's the trick to hit confirming, say Cammy's low forward into spiral arrow on sight?

Be slightly out of range. Buffer the Spiral Arrow assuming it will hit. Since you're out of range, it will only hit if they walk into it or press a button.

Doing a legit 1-hit confirm is, frankly, unreasonable without link timing or a normal with a large cancel window (like Laura's crHP). I won't say it's impossible, but it's on a 16-year-old-Korean-Starcraft-prodigy sort of level.

 

[mbpm1]

Truly a special moment

Or Kbrad because he claims he can do that on reaction.

 

[Professor Beef]

Yeah i saw it when playing around with the options the other day. Really glad that's there, though Capcom really should have made that obvious for people since day one.

This is making me wonder how many people don't check the options menu when first starting up a game.

 

[pizzacat]

It's there and I had selected that as a default because I like it skullgirls but it takes way too much time compared to skullgirls and you still have to do that in training mode, nty

 

[xCobalt]

This dude sounds exactly like Ultradavid

 

[That Dude John]

Anybody wanna play SFV real quick? Do invites and whatnot work now?

 

[skLaFarebear]

This is making me wonder how many people don't check the options menu when first starting up a game.

Well there wasn't much to do day one besides train, so I figured more people would mess with the options.

Guess not.

 

[Cindi Mayweather]

Y'all are fighting a bunch of Ken's? I'm fighting a billion Nash's. I fucking hate this character at this point. Nash is trash.

So many matches ended with a boom ;_;

I thought it was him for a bit when I first turned it on, lol.

Taken out a lot of Rashid's, Ryu's, and Nash's. It's fucking boring.

Hey Ricky makes the exact same mistakes with Chun Li as I do lol. I guess the SBD being a bit hard to pull off is just not me.

Yeah they mentioned yesterday on Daigo's stream that Haitani had Ryu experience since he played a lot against Bonchan's Ryu.

Ryu is who I expected him to choose tbh.

Bring on the Bonchan v. Daigo mirror matches during tournaments.

Bonchan picked Ryu for SFV

Not surprising, he stuck with Sagat all this time through SF4 despite the lows the character went through. He wants to stick with that fireball zoning and DP style and Ryu is the best representation of that.

Yogaflame24 actually uploaded 3 of his matches against Onigiri and he lost 2-1 because he still doesn't know what's going on and got gimmicked a lot lol. I expect him and Daigo to be a beast with Ryu in due time though.
