Is there something I'm missing about the Gief vs Rashid matchup, or is it just really hard? The constant fireballs make it tough to get it, it seems like all of his moves take him out of punish range or are safe, and his normals dominate Giefs. I have literally no idea what to do.

It's quite hard. You have to play patient, try to push him back with walking and blocking at half-screen and the occasional (limited) jump.

And punishing all of his kick dives when you can with Gief's farthest buttons or parry into things. AA when he's not using dive kicks. And don't let him get away with run into throw and use your buttons smartly when he tries to get in on the ground if he chooses to.

Once you get V-trigger it's your chance to punish fireballs and stuff more badly.
 
Bad night. Almost every match is a teleport, skip fest. All the other complaints I can deal with but online being so sketchy is frustrating.

What's the best punish for a move like a ryu sweep as Mika? And are some good options on oki for mika?

Also what do I do once I hit a crush counter f+HP?

Anyone down to play a few matches? I play Birdie and Mika. Been losing a lot online lately, looking to get a few consistent matches against the same opponent.

I'll hit you up tommorow night EST, as I need Birdie and Mika experience (Ryukens and up-and-coming Rashids/Dictators errwrrr)

Ugh, it dropped out again. Pretty sure it's my connection, too, and not the game. Should I host or should we end it there? GGs, if it's the latter. Best Birdie I've gone against thus far.

My game kept acting up and it crashed sorry! I think it's good time to hang it up for the night anyway.Good games FluxWave learned some good Mika tech. What was the set-up for the Cr. HP Reset? I know we just played but it all happened so quick I kinda got lost. Is it just hitting Cr. Hp after the wall bounce?

Thanks for the compliments, your Mika is def no slouch, learned a lot.
 
Battle Lounges are so much more fun than ranked or casual. It's hard to find rooms that suit the level of play I'm looking for but when I do it's so satisfying to play long sets. There should be an option in ranked for that.

Ah, I guess things were just acting wonky all around.

The cr.HP thing (if this is the one you mean) goes something like cr.HP xx left V-trigger > wingless airplane and then it's kind of like a cross-up with Nadeshiko.

Oh wait, no, you're talking about when I wall bounce you in the corner, right? Yeah, that's simply doing cr.HP after the wall bounce. It goes pretty fast, so a command grab can catch opponents off-guard after it.
 
Laura Birdie matchup is horrrrible oh god.

-His normals beat hers clean
-His throws after faster, longer range
-His v-skill nullifies her projectile approach
-Lot of stuff she can't punish due to stubby normals

Not only that, but I work better playing longer sets. I just wish battle lounges worked properly and you could search by connection.

I don't know, I really hate that matchup right now as Birdie, I find she can get in fairly easily, but then again I don't think I'm using my V. Skill right, I'm assuming banana is the one that nullifies the approach? His throws are the same 5 frame startup as every other grab in the game (except for grab supers, which are 3 I believe) and I think ranges are comparable, they really don't reach very far aside from EX. Can't argue about the normals, Birdie's normals are pretty baller. The problem I find is that once she gets in her mixup game is ridic. Her Lp. Elbow and target combo leave her in great range for her grab or punishing jumps with a Cr. Hp (or is it standing Hp?). His lack of reversal really hurts him against chars like Bison or Laura or Mika who thrive up close and have a good mixup game. But then again, I'm really struggling with Birdie atm and I might not have figured out matchup knowledge to overcome it.
 
After practicing Chun for a couple of hours and about an hour of online play, I have to say she's pretty damn fun. I don't seem to have a hard time being offensive with her as I do with Vega. I don't want to drop the spanish ninja though but I need to improve my game with him.
 
How do I become the dude jumping in and being annoying? I'm way waaaay too passive so I sit there anti airing and waiting for openings the size of buses. Also my oki sucks
 
Man I'm having so much trouble getting to silver as Mika, I keep getting into bronze ultra getting bopped by 2000+ players and dropping into bronze super where it's easy for me :S

Good, I hate Laura's normals. I hate fighting her to be honest and her annoying voice only makes things worse.
 
Lol, some scrub player with 2k and a 24 win streak, dc'd before first round was even over.

Can't imagine how much time that person spend just leaving matches to cultivate a low tier silver ranking and a pointless win streak, smh xD
 
I'm feeling really old. Can't seem to learn or do any of the combos properly, reflexes aren't fast enough I guess.
The one thing I hate is when the game itself doesn't have the tools to teach players to get better at their games.
I remember reading about the "Battle Tips" feature coming to the game. I hope that adds something ingame to teach players how to do combos.
If anyone has any recommendation to a resource to help learn the game better.
I've seen the Street fighter helpful videos thread.
