GGs. Your Necalli is a savage.
Did you happen to just be playing a Bison?
Any tips for dealing with Shotos with Laura? I just can't seem to win vs Ryu/Ken..I've only won 2 matches against Ryu, both same dude..I get in and try to pressure them and get my arse kicked, decide to play defensively and they just spam fireballs. Try mid-range and I either jump into an SRK or land just out of reach and get hit by sweeps..

He was playing my FANG and Mika.
Oh, I just got finish playing a Necalli and I had trouble with the character until I just started throwing out M. Bison's df. HP. Everything went bad for him after that. I didn't realize how good that is until I saw it getting used on LIJoe's stream.
You can counter a grab with your own if you do it at the same time (teching). You have to avoid a command grab.
Grabs is what everyone does with both light attacks. Command grabs are special moves like Zangief spinning piledriver
Teching is when you press the same buttons at the same time as the oponnent to escape the grab (you "tech" it)

My execution is questionable, but I'd like think my change up is above par.
1, if you're on the ground near him when it's activated you're caught.
Though many grabs can be beat by normal grabs if you get yours in first (but some are grab invincible)
These made me understand it fully. Thanks for the explanation. Just to be sure, to avoid a normal grab, I can either do a tech, neutral jump or backdash right?

The way you play him is very intimidating, but you're almost too eager to throw out an attack. I was making you pay for those wake up DPs.
Yeah. You can also just stuff the attempt with a move faster than the throw (5f) like a jab, light or special attack. Throws do have priority over normals though so if the normal doesn't become active until the same frame (so it is also 5f and they both started at the same time) the throw will win out.
To avoid it, yes. To escape it, only a tech. What I mean is, you can tech a grab, but you cant dash out of a grab, you need to anticipate it and dash/jump. Does that make sense?
Edit: or just attack like others said
For my shoto matches, I always try to start mid range so I can either jump above a fireball and combo into the mixups, or use the command dash to gain ground. The idea is to be patient, and wait for the fireball. If the guy is patient, poke him with the standing HK to put some kind of pressure. If he jumps, MP is a great anti-air!
Once you get close range, mix the command grabs/throws/overheads up after using the Laura fireball. This is Laura, pressure is your main weapon
Okay that makes sense. A lot of the time when I go for the LP, LK, super it doesn't combo but I still get the opponent with the super.

I hate it when I lose to Necalli and he grabs my face when I'm on the ground

I was landing more than a couple, mostly I was hoping for dropped combos. Too be honest I'm weening myself off the Potemkin ingrained in me from too much Xrd, that move is not hammerfall for sure.

I was eating them all in the first few matches, but I figured you use it when you think I'm jabbing, or to break out of normal pressure. I did drop my FANG HK combo a lot, though.
Nice work on those command grabs.
Yes, this makes a lot of sense. I feel like I know all about it now. I can't make the CPU just do grabs in Training can I? Would a record suffice?

By the way, I'm laughing out loud now, because I just found out, that L1 is equal to a LP, MP and HP, which instantly made v-reversals much easier! I had always done it by doing back+square+triangle+R1.

You can put your PS4/PC in the DMZ on your router to test it out just to see if connections happen. Otherwise it's not recommended to open all ports etc.

Cheers, still new to this and figuring out how to play as I get used to my stick, got up to 394LP then had Ryu,Ken,Ryu and dropped back down to 316. I always seem to get 2-3 wins, then a Shoto or a character I've never played against before, got 3 earlier, followed by a 700LP Rashid, never fought him outside story/survival.

I fell asleep on Daigo's stream sadly. Did he ever play ranked or was that stream a whole party to play SFV with top players and to show off tech? It was a great stream but eventually I just fell asleep because I was tired..

Just reached 240,000 Fight Money. That March update needs to hurry up and get here!
Remember Ono being like: "people won't be disappointed in the story mode"?

How'd you get that much so quickly?

? No, hammerfall is a body splash-ish just like Necalli's. But unlike his, Potemkin's is somewhat safe, and leads into his best stuff. I gotta train myself off it. I figure that's the weakest part of my game.
Whats your capcom id name?

You can also just run into me in endless. I have a lobby

Try these
I don't believe the game uses normal Steam ports for matchmaking
Noted! I'll send you an invite here in a sec.
Maybe in an update?
...
Actually, allow me:
- Character themes actually being in the game and being selectable during matches?
Maybe in an update?
- Other characters than Ryu having blocked hit animations?
Maybe in an update?
- Stage transitions for other stages than Bustling Side Street?
Maybe in an update?
- Having an intro cinematic that was made for the game but not viewable in the game itself?
Maybe in an update?
- An actual title screen / attract mode?
Maybe in an update?
- Better UI / menus that show stuff like character levels or that gives stronger cues for full meters?
Maybe in an update?
- A way to unlock day/night versions of stages already in the game?
Maybe in an update?
- Servers that work consistently and at the very least don't disconnect you while doing single player modes (robbing you of FM in the process)?
Maybe in an update?
- An arcade mode / fully functional Versus mode (that allows for CPU opponents on both sides)?
Maybe in an update?
- Fixed hair etc. clipping and boob jiggling on both sides of the Character select screen, not just the P1 side?
Maybe in an update?
- A fix for the shadow dithering on PS4 that in many ways ruins the look of the characters?
Maybe in an update?
...
- A roadmap / list of fixes that actually mentions all of these things, not just the server issues?
Maybe in an update?

Edit:
This is the one visual/polish thing I do see people here complain about quite a bit, but oddly enough I've never been overly bothered by the drawings myself. Yes, some of them do look rushed and a bit weird (especially if you compare them to Benhus' old work), but overall I can't help but like their energy, coloring and "cleanliness", even when characters have doritos for mouths. For me, they suit the story mode better than the anime clips used in IV if I'm honest.
doesn't give me much hope for the full cinematic mode
edit: Also it's weird that Bison is only 5'11. That is much shorter than I would have expected.
Basically everyone is under 6 feet except for the tall characters who are all over 7

Congrats on the first win. I'd say the biggest thing you need to work on is combos and better spacing. You had plenty of chances for good damage when hitting with st.lp you can target combos into st.mp and go into medium or heavy scythe and even EX if you have the meter to spend. Be careful of using his moonsault raw as most players would punish you for doing it that far out. Try using his medium scythe from max range to get some chip. He also has some other gooday normal attacks that can be safe when used properly in right situations. I like how you were consciously using your v skill on him but try and incorporate his v trigger into your attack as it is very useful. His heavy punch is very useful too for crush counters which can lead to big damage. Forward + HP has a lot of range and if successfully used you can do heavy assault after crush counter for good damage and meter steal.
Also be careful on using raw heavy attacks that close to your opponent they are very negative on block and usually easy to see coming. If you are that close try mixing in throws to keep your opponent guessing if you are going to throw or hit then. Other than that you will get the hang of things with more experience and practice. Just try and be more calm when playing as I am sure you are pressing buttons a lot which is what I gather from the amount of jabs I see being thrown out.
