Yeah if he isn't getting his ass beaten in a corner while/near dizzy.

But that'd take away one of his biggest weaknesses and his equalizer.
Stay out of the corner. You have vtrigger, if you have to use it for that, too bad.

Servers are much much better, I am able to find casual or ranked matched in less than a minute
I've only quit twice because of games I'm winning and then suddenly the game turns into an old school slide show and suddenly the other person starts winning.

Aw yis:
Had to go through an army of Kens, but the Birdie being solid made it more gratifying. Also reposting this like a dirty shill for those who were on a widely different time zone earlier:

Taking the plunge with Vega. Trying Casuals/Battle Lounge to get practice with him.
dont give up, i did it for each of her costumes too.....still trying on hard now.
two questions
1) can you be thrown while crouching? not sure if they're just mashing / i'm not picking the right moves that come out fast enough
2) mika's slide seems a bit slow to punish blocked sweeps. what's a good alternative? i think f.mp to rope throw might work, but the distance required throws me off sometimes. maybe c.fp? but that doesn't knock down, unless i can combo it in to qcf punch.

Those whiffed fireballs tho
ignore my terrible terrible skills. XD
i'm usually better, i promise. My left finger is hurting cos i played too much today. Apparently i hold the controller wrong cos my left index finger really is sore.. ><
Beat the crap out of everyone until I reach Stage 26 Ryu, then I try to avoid unsafe stuff and just confirm my hits. Random power ups fucked me over a couple of times with Low health regen.
Yeah, will probably try later, wasted a lot of time trying 4 times.
I meant the Ryu before he RQs. You could see he was trying to throw fireballs but he was just punching air

1. You sure can. You cannot be thrown out of block stun or hit stun, though.
2. I don't know the answer, sorry.
I feel like the game is good for grapplers, since its damage is so high. But whiffed grabs also get punished harder, so there's that.
thanks, guess i'll just have to play around in training mode a bit more

Here is my Facebook post from last weekend:
Trying to get a match on Street Fighter V with hotel WiFi is like panhandling on the street for spare change.
Sad and desperate.
I felt your pain.

Does anyone not play much ranked? I find it pretty aggravating even though I win a good number of the casual matches I play
Regarding matchmaking, worryingly it sounds like they don't really know why it doesn't work for some people/regions. Hopefully they figure this out...

I think I'm obsessed with playing as the red hooded character in Lair of the Four Kings.
Nice, that guide is very useful.

And what kind of quality do you think the match will be even if you get in? I feel sorry for your opponent.
I know what you mean. The trick is to trust the crouching jab. We gotta get that additive damage.
Figured out a trick to get lobbies working consistently.
When your opponent eventually leaves the room, you have to click on "dismantle lobby".
Then you can start a new one and you will get people to join more often. My guess is, all of those rooms you see up after searching for a lobby are " ghost rooms" because players just leave them and the server doesn't refresh (and clear them out) as often as it should. Thus, you get a "cannot join room error" on every game on the lobby list even if they aren't full... which is really annoying.
For some reason, when a player leaves your room, you won't get anymore opponents. It is like your room doesn't show up, but it is still there obviously because you are in it.

I keep telling myself it's not about winning or losing or rank. It's about playing people who are better than you so you can get better.

Did you know that Guile learned his Sonic Boom from Nash? Of course you did. But you didn't know that Guile had to use American scientists and the best technology to get it down, and it still takes most of his concentration to do it with both hands.
That's the best mindset to have, and also what I try to tell myself. Going against people better than you are are actually nice opportunities to learn and improve. But man, it can still be disheartening when you're looking at a real steep hill in front of you.
Also, did something happen to the rage quitters? Are there other people who haven't encountered many tonight? I'm beating a fair amount of people, and yet I haven't encountered a single rage quitter yet. That's unprecedented.

TBH it was rather serviceable. I only played casual, I wouldn't do that to a ranked player.
I only encountered 1 in over 20 matches (I'm only winning like 50% though). I had stopped recording because it had been so long without one then BOOM. Rashid player who's name I can't remember.
What?
He has slow sonic booms that can be used to mixup and trap, his Vtrigger is super good, his normals are ridiculous, he has an easy target combo that you can use V trigger to extend, he can teleport outta corners, his combos are easy and deal good damage
The only reason this guy isnt totally OP is because he has no reversal.
Good job! Sim power! <3
Ken feels like he has the highest skill ceiling in the game, tbh.

I think a lot of people want more tools for a character without realizing that instead of dealing with the weakness, adding another strength would just make them broken as fuck.
Nash can get jabbed out of his V-Trigger if the opponent is fast enough, I thinks it's a good balance.
Don't need Nash to be over powered.
