my sfv beta showing has been poor

but I just beat a Bison with R. Mika

Psycho Power is no match for Butt Power

BUTT POWER
 
Seems like half the cast that's what their vtrigger does.

At least it's all different, for the most part.

Birdie gets increased damage and super armor on moves. Also, guard breaks on special moves.
Ryu gets increased stun.
Cammy is sped up.
Chun gets those extra hits.
Ken gets an increase on hits and different angles on moves giving him more combo options.
Nec becomes a new dude.

As in "Heathcliff"
I just wish that characters's ranking would be take into consideration when searching for players in matchmaking.

It's annoying that I had to face good players with new characters that I'm not good with yet.

That's it for me for today, gotta head out. It's been fun and I'll probably keep playing tomorrow. I've gotten a better understanding of the new characters and the game, but I still need a stick because I'm missing easy inputs. Will probably try some more Ryu and Nash tomorrow.
 
I'm terrible at getting into the flow of a match using Ken. All these years of neglecting to at least get good with one Shoto is backfiring nicely.

HALP.

Testing what's safe on block for mika:

Safe:

HK (charged and regular)
qcf+HP at max range
c.mk
f+hp
mic throw

Not safe:

MK/F+MK
Target combo LK > MP can be interrupted after the LK.

Other than combos I don't know what to use Ken's dash for...
I used it to get behind the opponent when we were close and they jumped. Also, if you notice they tend not to press many buttons, you can apply pressure by cancelling cr.MK or st.HP into the run and go for a grab or jab/short pressure.
 
I set CPU on record and I keep punishing Psycho Inferno.

What's it even good for now? Shame, it was my favourite move in the first beta. Pretty bummed.
 
Could someone give me some general Bison advice? I'm rather new to SF and completely new to charge characters, but I like bison. Should I just be poking and only use specials when on the defensive? I know if I hit someone jumping I can combo into super, but other than that I don't know any other useful combos with him.

No clue why the move is useful outside of EX version. At max range it can be safe, but I might as well use scissors now.

Also, c.MP was definitely nerfed. s.HP to c.MP almost always whiffs now.
