Anyone else notice that http://sfv.fightinggame.community/ seemed to have stopped updating? It still says I was "last seen" 10 days ago.
I looked at it to discuss the topic of character variety. I think I am in a good position to talk about this, as I played Rashid from Rookie -> Silver, and have been playing Birdie in the Silver -> Super Silver range.
For Rookie -> Silver (100 games), as you'd expect I saw Ryu, Ken and Nash the most.
For Silver -> Super Silver (~43 games), it goes Karin, Nash and Rashid of all people. Ken is 5th, and Ryu is really low. I think Ryu low and Rashid high is just a fluke though, I know I've seen many more Ryu's since last week, and Rashid's are definitely not that common.

I've been refreshing it occasionally to see if they've updated it, no dice.
I'd love to peek at my raw CFN data just to figure out how I've been doing lately.

Actually I think everyone wants LESS background characters and have the ones that are there be 60fps.
The Lair of the four Kings stage is amazing but the Robot in the background with the ninja running behind him are just flat out unnecessary.
Holy balls that's amazing - I'll be scouring through that for sure; thanks ever so much
It's a shame, I too would love to see how my Birdie stats have been progressing. I know my Dhalsim win rate is still at 0% though, heh.
You think that's strange? I ran into a ultra-silver Cammy with a 6 win streak that was not good, lots of jumping without any cannon strikes, unsafe moves, etc. And then strangest of all, the Cammy DIDN'T drop! I can only think that the player gave the controller to his little brother or something.
Kudos to your wonderful guide here.
See, this is why we need individual LP for every character
Yesterday I went to casual with my scrubby ass secondary bison and I was getting whooped by everyone, they were probably thinking I was a ragequitter or something because I sucked ass lol
I dunno man. Daigo with a 600LP Dhalsim will make lots of bronze players quit the game.
That Chun probably got the LP through ragequitting. No help for that.

If they did add something like that, it'd have to be separate from LP. Maybe something like Battle Points or BP for short.
Hire me Capcpom
That would be better. More in that stage. It would be cool just the stage, the rival and you.
BTW, I don't know why, but I hate the claps after finishing a round in New York stage.

Because it makes no sense. That Russian man just suplexed that Chinese woman so hard, she's actually stuck in the ground. Why are they just standing there applauding?
Though I can understand the applause when R.Mika ends with her CA.
Daigo trying out Guile when he comes out will be a treat for them bronze leaguers
Interesting because last week I mentioned in his Stream I have a terrible matchup v.s. Mika as Bison, and he claimed it was 6-4 in Bison's favor... but this graphic shows the reverse? Unless I'm reading it wrong?

According to this there is a problem getting the data. He knows what the problem is but doesn't know how to fix but it sounds like he's working on it.

I've seen this reasoning several times and it doesn't make sense. Bronze players (and all players) are going to be matched with better players and lose, a lot. Daigo starting a new character with no LP and going on a streak through the lower leagues isn't any different from any other more experienced player climbing to whatever league they should be in on the corpses of total beginners.
It would be a problem if Daigo just stayed in the bronze league somehow, murdering everyone, but the whole point of the league system is that winners move up. You can't smurf indefinitely in this game, is what I'm saying. As if someone at Daigo's level would even want to. It would be boring and a waste of time.
When I started I got to 1000 LP pretty fast. I beat a lot of people who clearly didn't know much about the game yet. Should I be worried that they all quit? Because they probably didn't, at least not because of me.
Thank you Capcom for delivering the worst online experience I have ever had with a fighting game...
Everytime I boot up the game I end up frustrated as hell.. more than 45 min to get a ranked match & blattle lounges are still useless without an option to filter the search by connection quality.
I guess the online population is really low in europe, but at this pace it will be dead when capcom decides to drop the f patch.

That's definitely not normal. I rarely wait longer than 2 minutes. I'm in Europe, too.
Who said Ryu was bad? I'm pretty sure most people consider him pretty high tier.

According to some he's bad cause you can block his dragon punch...

Do people think he's bad? Most people would think he's 'common', which some can find annoying.
Because there are an OVERWHELMING amount of mediocre Ryus. Then you think Ryu is bad, because that is what you've seen. I've never played a "bad" Dhalsim for what it's worth, and think he's pretty high tier.
Ya it's reverse: 6-4 in Mika's favor according to Marn
I'm in this camp because it's my first Street Fighter that I'm trying to take seriously. I'm thinking about maybe switching to Cammy, though.

One guy thinks this and it's because he believes many incorrect things about the character.
Also this. People express a lot of annoyance about fighting Ryus and Kens but that's different from thinking they're bad characters.
I feel like if you know enough to recognize that a Ryu player is bad, you should also know enough not to judge the character based on how a bad player plays them. But I'm sure there are exceptions.
I thought Ryu was horrible at launch and now I'm a Ryu main and wouldn't go anywhere without him
I was down about his flaws but I didn't understand how he works and is able to bypass them until I got some time with him. I also thought he was boring but he's really fun to play imo, way more than previous iterations. You always have to judge the situation and you always have an option to consider
"Fuck Nash this character is broken"
"Mika is OP can we just nerf her"
Infiltration or Fuudo got this basically

This needs to be said over and over. Ryu, this version of him, is FUN as hell. I quit him cold turkey years ago--he was my main up until Alpha 2. But I finally went back and it's been great.

So far this month dealing with Capcom's shit.
If Ryu had his Donkey Kick I'll be cool with him.

I have to stop playing ranked. I keep messaging rage quitters and their responses subsequently infuriate me. I can't help myself though.
The standard is the match was lagging(but you played the whole match anyway). But then you get the
"all you did was grab you dont deserve points"
"Bison's slide is cheap"
"You suck anyway"
"Lol"
This is a me problem. What do I expect from these people.
