Coming here to ask for tips as a beginner on how to Johnny and see this:

If only they removed Elph, Johnny, and Millia, the game would be free of frauds

Why are you advocating removing the reason I want to play this game more?

 

[Ron K]

They do require effort to handle some execution barrier, yes. In terms of critical thinking, there is no barrier. They are the Zero or Seth of the game.

That's just what those characters are. When they're good, that's how they work. If I-No, Leo or Chipp were on their level tier-wise you'd be saying the same of them. Millia in particular does not have a big execution barrier, she has a HUGE neutral barrier. Outside of hairpin everything she does at neutral needs to be very precise.

 

[ShinMaruku]

If people learned matchups the game would be free of frauds.

That's too much work for Yank players.

 

[Slaythe]

You say that but those characters take a good deal of effort to play optimally.

Entirely true for Milia and Johnny.

Elph? Get out son.

Have you actually played Millia? You can autopilot more with Faust than you could with Millia during neutral.

 

[QisTopTier]

Elph? Get out son.

100% still true for elph. Shotgun loops and setups don't do themselves

lol at thinking Seth requires no critical thinking. Seth is one of the hardest sf4 characters not only because of execution but because you have to get into people's heads because one bad play cost you a round more than any other character. Zero is pretty dumb but good zero players are absolutely doing plenty of critical thinking.


If you want derp gg characters Faust is the number one contender followed by sol. If jam was her old version she be right next to them. But it's OK Leo has her place now

Kum KY and raven are all pretty derpy as well.

 

[Master Milk]

[Type-Zero]

Haha, this is awesome I get to fight Kum and Jack-O. I have never fight against these two yet so this will be great for experience!

 

[SephirothRK]

You guys still playing?

 

[Type-Zero]

Good games Q and Milk, I gotta really step it up. I would play more but i gotta head out.

 

[Slaythe]

EU lobby (france) was full today for the longest time !

Glad to see 1.02's delay didn't affect the player base. And now all EU players can play together .

 

[Master Milk]

ggs everyone

[GinoFelino]

Got any more of them scrub quotes?

 

[SephirothRK]

[Hadoukie]

Lol, you forgot Sin, who should be in place of Millia

I have less of a problem with them, than I do with Pot, Slayer and Jam being garbage. Fucking buff them, godammit

 

[Zissou]

I was thinking arcade edition Seth (though I stand by Zero). I probably shouldn't have said they 'don't require critical thinking' (and they certainly require execution) but rather 'people that win with them often win because their character carries them to victory (w/o necessarily having to outplay their opponent).

This is a dumb mindset stop thinking this way if you want to get better

 

[NEO0MJ]

I was really hoping to play Kum but I'm not sure her style fits me. Kinda a shame, as I love the design of the old man. Gonna try messing around more with her later.

That's certainly a mindset

 

[miku]

Need source on that gif

 

[Karsticles]

I made a room: p7ad.

It is set to automatic rematches for easy 1v1. If you are an odd man out, you might have to wait for a match.

Yeah- I know. The original post was made after going out drinking, so it wasn't the most lucid.

still playing?

 

[Pompadour]

So I'm guessing that when that DNS Error pops up when I KO my opponent that's them ragequitting, right?

 

[QisTopTier]

Anyone down for some matches

 

[Pompadour]

Room name?

 

[oneida]

i finished ky's trials

 

[Karsticles]

Room sdme is up. Search and fight!

 

[Karsticles]

Guys...block.

 

[KRaZyAmmo]

Guys...block.

I was using the absolute defense. I need more training with Ky xP

 

[Karsticles]

Where did everyone go? :-/

I was using the absolute defense. I need more training with Ky xP

I mean on oki. You have a big red fireball on you, and you can't do anything but block in that situation.

 

[Rhapsody]

Room sdme is up. Search and fight!

Oops, I missed this. We should do some 1v1 sometime, Karst.

 

[VanillaCakeIsBurning]

Getting miffed on Overwatch, I feel like I should be playing this instead.

 

[Master Milk]

anyone wanna play?

 

[NEO0MJ]

Getting the hang of Kum's gatling seems super tough. I still can't get the rhythm.

 

[Grifter]

Does the game have the buffer system from BB/P4A where holding the button repeats inputs?

 

[Glitter and Gold]

Getting the hang of Kum's gatling seems super tough. I still can't get the rhythm.

Might be because she doesn't have any gatling strings. lol

She's link based like Slayer

Does the game have the buffer system from BB/P4A where holding the button repeats inputs?

Yes but it's only three frames, so you still have to be relatively precise with button presses

 

[oneida]

Does the game have the buffer system from BB/P4A where holding the button repeats inputs?

as far as i can tell, no, but execution is not too difficult.

 

[oneida]

also finished Leo's trials... only 2 left for Sol...

this is the best way to make fishing money if you're too scared to play online like me

 

[ShinMaruku]

I dunno where people think Elphelt does not need critical thinking, I still get dunked. :E

But soon I will get the unblockables and then lick shot.

People just don't like the character. and assume that having such favorable options in almost every situation = no skill.

That said launch pineberry was ridiculous and first impressions are hard to get passed lol

lol I'm sure there are much better ways to earn money than doing trials and playing online

 

[vg260]

lol I'm sure there are much better ways to earn money than doing trials and playing online

Not really after you cleared story and arcade with each character.

Lol I swear to god I thought I opened the SFV thread when I read these two.

 

[Gr1mLock]

Game get. Now to lab it up and figure out who I'm going to roll with.
