You know, I haven't come across any in about a week, since Capcom started cracking down. Maybe it's working? I dunno, since it still seems to be a problem for you. Either way, it at least feels as though the amount of people doing it has reduced dramatically.
Hell, I imagine a lot of the most prolific rage quitters have quit the game entirely, given what their apparent motives for even playing were in the first place.
I've seen those and more, i main her lol.
Just saying her vskill doesnt allow 'free ambigious crossups'. Its still just a jump, that can be AA'd if someone is just throwing them out raw in the neutral.

I am in trash tier of the ranking system and pretty much only play casual, I lose 90% of my games and even I am now getting rage quitters in casual!
That to me is totally mad, what does it achieve to pull the plug in casual?

As a chun player, her vskill is only good against people that don't know how to handle cross-ups or even use a simple anti-air attack. Meaning, newbs. Anyone around bronze, they get messed up with it. For people above that rank, not really useful.
People really overrating Chun around these parts. You need a lot of execution skill to play her properly too.

st.MP is minus on block, so if Mika spams it you should be able to get free counter hits.

Chun Li isn't broken.
Said every Chun player on the planet.
You guys need to realize that not every character in the roster has godlike AA options. I am well above bronze, yet have problems to AA her consistently, what you say now?

Great games dude. Don't get to play Ken much. We gotta do more another time lol
Did you not see the videos? It's completely ambiguous, which makes it useful against any skill level. Of course raw V-Skill is not good, that's not its purpose.

I've seen such impressive Ryu play lately. Makes me want to pick up Hot Ryu until Alex drops.
Ryu will end up top 5 just because he is so freaking solid. Such a great Ryu iteration in this game, can't help but love him.
That's scary

Rage quitting is rampant. It's getting to be very very annoying.

What rank are you at, those of you who are getting a lot of RQs? Is it silver or above? Because I've still only had a of handful RQs out of several hundreds of matches, but I am also just super/ultra bronze.

The guy before was saying that her vskill was a free-crossup, and the guy you quoted was right to say that without setting it up with a hard knock down, you can just anti-air it. The setups in your videos are from hard knock downs, which I wouldn't say are a huge component of this game. Chun can only get them from cr.hk.
A good portion of the cast actually have 50/50 crossups that you can get from hard knock downs. For instance if spaced correctly Rashid can press either HP or delayed MK and it will determine which side he falls, Vega can do the same thing with HP or delayed LK.
I guess the point is, that the hard knock down puts you in a real bad state against a lot of the cast. Chun is no different. Being at frame disadvantage in this game, while right next to your opponent (as you are after wakeup) is essentially a true 50/50 even if you don't cross up. In fact Chun is probably better off using the opportunity to shimmie for counter hit / throw than she is going for those crossup setups. That way she doesn't risk landing herself in the corner 50% of the time.

Agreed. Plus---People aren't even tapping into that parry well of his. His ceiling cap is MUCH higher than say Ken. Ken I feel like will be 100% completed and figured out soon, but Ryu's V Skill poses so many great options yet touched by top level players.
Daigo included.
I don't think Daigo parried once in that set that was posted with him and Nuki. Hype as fuuuuck match between the two of them.

I'm hardly knowledgable, but that looked like she had blockstrings for downed opponents that also escapes dps. If she's got that, she's hella op, jesus.

Bit random, but in the main menu, it says my LP is 2868 in the top right hand corner of the screen, even though I've been well into the 3000 LP range for over a week and just hit 3,500.
It doesn't bother me, but I do find it odd and was wondering if anyone else is having the same glitch?

The same exact thing happened to me. I'm hoping it's something that'll fix itself.
Right, thats a safe jump setup. Everyone in the cast can do it off a hard knockdown (well except maybe sim haha)

ken can run cancel off of just about every normal. It was toned down from beta 2 along with his 3 frame jab and MK Tatsu because he was too good and I think someone discovered an infinite. Parry is great but requires very high matchup knowledge. Like Ken, most people won't reach the ceiling, just get really good. Ken needs to be able to hit confirm off of one button, I actually feel like he's harder to master than Ryu. Parry is still high risk/high reward, will always depend on the player and only people like Diago will be able to master him. It's really not about Ryu, but how well you can read an opponent.

CFN is janky as hell, overall. Hopefully the update this month includes an update to the infrastructure as well.
Been like that for several people for weeks. It's a bug that'll hopefully be fixed with the March update.

Except after a knockdown from a crush counter it can be troublesome for characters who don't have a good reversal. I just tested this on Nash who has no wake up options and if timed perfectly, she can get a counter hit if a Nash player tries to hit her out of it.

This can't be said enough. This is a great Ryu, just fun and simple and strong.
It looks troublesome for people with a good reversal too. You saw how she can make Ryu's DP whiff or be blocked.
Romars202129

Okay, sure. But it also appears she can place herself in front or behind an opponent with next to no indication. How is that not op?

I don't think there are enough rage quitters to prevent you from being matched with players at your skill level, which is the real purpose for playing SFV at the moment. The epeen points are just a nice (but unnecessary) psychological bonus. Or anti-bonus, in the case of a RQ or losing streak.
Well yeah, characters with no reversals are just gonna have to hold that and block. It is what it is. Thats not a chun exclusive benefit.
Mika gets you in the corner and you have to guess fierce punch into wingless airplane or command throw.
Guess I dunno what to tell you.
I saw the vids, I've also spent 60 hours playing with her. I wish Chun was broken, I'd win much more often then.
I don't see the big deal about her vskill. Against high-skill opponents every time I do it after hard knockdowns I get consistently blocked. When I watch pro players use Chun they barely use it...Chronospherics

Every character has their share of safejumps.
Again, if you get a crush counter knockdown, your opponent deserves to be in a bad position, a position that they need to make the correct guess to get out of, that's the idea! Not just against Chun, against the entire cast.
It's much worse if you're placed into this position against Gief, Birdy, Mika, or Laura, for example.
Romars202129
Member
But thats in the corner... Chun's doing this in the open. And I'm not what your choice is against her other than v reversal.
Which is my point. It's bad for everyone.
V-reversal won't mean anything if you get hit.
I think Mika will get you to the corner more often than you should be eating crush counter sweeps.
Just read an interesting theory about Alex on SRK. Sorry if it's already been mentioned:
Contains SF Unlimited Spoilers and Potential Future Spoilers
Contains SF Unlimited Spoilers and Potential Future Spoilers
So in the latest issue of SF Unlimited Alex is able to destroy Twelve clones, apprarently something only candidates of the Illuminati are able to do (basically Urien and Gill). People were asking how he could do that and this guy posted this:
If this is true then this makes Alex even cooler to me. It'd be mindbowling to discover that Alex is actually an Illuminati candidate like Gill and Urien. Makes their prophecies about Alex even more interesting
i'd rather be in the corner vs a chun-li instead of mika, zangief, laura...

What you said was 'it looks troublesome for people with a good reversal too' suggesting it's bad for everyone on the floor, you post didn't suggest that you meant that it was independent of the aggressor being Chun Li.
I'm just trying to tone down some of this 'Chun Li is overpowered stuff'
I think she's one of if not the best character in the game, but reading people's posts on here make it sound like you might as well just unplug the controller and walk away. It's not like that at all. She's not that good. Heck even these insane combo vids were seeing, yeah they look insane, but it's only 300 damage. Most of the cast can get that off of vtrigger bnbs.
Holy moly, that's pretty nice

Ah man please label the spoilers with what they're from. I still need to read that issue but I'm not up on past SF lore so I untagged the spoilers thinking it would be something I'd never experience first hand anyway, or directly from SFV.
Sorry about that, I forgot. I'll mark them.

Makes sense.
On another note; a month in and still addicted to this game like it's some kind of drug. Playing Cammy almost exclusively, but I just can't help it. Not only has she been my main since II but she's really fun to play as in this. Also loving how she's far less reliant on meter compared to her SFIV iteration, but that's partly down to the core mechanics of the game changing I guess.
Waiting patiently for Ibuki *sigh*.

She would only be able to do that on a cc knockdown? I guess thats fine then.
Totally not getting the impression they want to push Alex that much in the game, to be honest. I don't hate the redesign, but that face obviously didn't have a lot of tlc put into it. Not a great sign they have him pegged for main character status anymore.
