A-OK by me.
Cammy's b.MP(?) is fucking ridiculous. Forget trying to jump in on her. I swear I got hit by it after I already crossed her up at times.

I personally have been getting trashed by Alex players. All of his moves seem to have very fast recovery. And that vtrigger is tough.
Granted I have no 3rd Strike experience and outside of messing with him in challenges I don't really know what he's about. But the few I've played have been pretty good.

Her AA? Yeah, b.mp. Since I'm terrible I'll see someone jump, hit b.mp and realize they jumped from too far out so I just did a Rocky pose instead.

But this isn't proof that he is in fact a good character just that you do not know the match up and play style.
For everyone's entertainment:
Also this video is really good for Alex meaties. I've been messing around with some of this stuff in training and its good to see it be more explored by someone else. I need to try and get this going in my Alex play.

This is some good tech after flash chop trades as well. I always just did sweep like he does in the beginning but good to see that someone with more time found some pretty nice options that could be useful in certain situations against jab happy characters:

More people should! I really like the character personally.
That's just fucking stupid
I think that's the joke? But then I don't understand why Vega's there. Vega seems pretty honest to me.

Do people not realize Zangief has anti-air options? Been serving people that cr.HP for breakfast all morning.
All of your (frequent) complaints are hilarious considering you're a Mika player.

What I wouldn't give for a continue. It should do something like no fight money if you continue and it sets me back 5 matches..I just want these colors!!

I was going to buy the season pass for the premium costumes, but I realized that Dark Souls 3 comes out in a week.
"OK, they'll probably DP so I won't go for a meaty. Damn they whiffed a grab, that was my chance, OK, I'll go for the meaty next time. Fuck! They woke up with a DP! Alright, I'll try again, they probably think I'm afraid now. Fuck! Another DP! Damn, time to step back after a knockdown. Shit, they pressed nothing this time. Ok I'll just go for a grab this time. Wake up super? WTF!?"
Lol a match just went something like that. I also hate it when I think to myself while knocked down "OK, do not tech a grab, they'll meaty", but my fingers say fuck it and I grab, just to get hit by a meaty b.HK from Ryu

Most of my complaints are questions. But if use of swear words turn them into complaints then ok
after playing Alex for a day I kind of want to fight against someone using him with my Bison for a bit. Maybe something to do tonight after work or tomorrow.
I figure one of two things will happen:
- I stomp all over Alex and get some justification for my frustration yesterday, my god what does he even DO against Bison
- I lose and now I know the answer to that question
seems like a win win situation.
also yesterday I had a real mega derp moment where I kept falling for zangief's blocked knee into SPD. I feel like I don't run into that situation as Bison much so as Alex I wasn't sure how to handle it. My grabs after the knee weren't coming out in time but in training mode I could grab him before the SPD.

tks man...I got the plink but keep missing the juggle on the last hit. Will try it tonight, looks like I'm just not doing it fast enough.

Alex can drain your full health with one well placed crush counter and using only two bars.

It's just funny cause gief/other characters has that exact same issue against Mika.
This literally fucking happened to me yesterday and I got destroyed. Same stage and same amount of health. Fuck Survival I hate it so much.

What? How do I get Metal Necalli and Steve Harvey Birdie?
There's a reset in there.

Oh, Dark Souls it is, then. Maybe I'll get the pass depending on what Balrog and Juri are wearing.

I am a Zangief player and I love no projectile fights, I Knee Lift into SPD all day if you don't V-reversal, if you have a V-bar and you see the knee frame trap set up, use that fucking bar..

Here's a 10 minute video from DaFeetLee on Alex setplay options:

I need to learn my stomp distances. And remember at all about Stun Gun.
The correlation between connecting more than one crHP on a jump and winning must be super high.
One time one guy jumped in in the first round so much that when the second round came I just crouched and pressed HP over and over. He just walked back while I did that for a few seconds (8? 10?!?) and eventually got the message to not just jump over me. Still won but wasn't as blatant.
Gotta confess that bad shotos have also trained me to jump over their fireballs too, since so few of them actually punish a bad jump in with a good shoryuken or anything. But I stop doing it p soon.
Yea the first powerbomb didn't combo.

So what if I play Mika. I just got ran over by a Zangief and asked wtf to do since to me the matchup feels very hard. Zangief has great ways of dealing with Mika, Lariat/air grabs for anti air, things that counter c.hk. a command grab with longer range than Mika's jab and in general just better normals.
the headbutt is pretty much the only reason I win any matches as Alex. Which makes me think I should just play Birdie instead
For everyone's entertainment:
....I do try my absolute hardest to win
I play Nash and still lose too much
For everyone's entertainment:
Very off IMO, aside from Bison and the press buttons.

I wish Nash clicked with me, I like his playstyle but I find he feels so awkward.

Don't do it in the corner, I kept crossing under.

They're so similar, but I have way better execution with charge moves. Plus, Slash Elbow is way nicer than Bull Head.
