To add to that, his damage potential is relatively small compared to the cast even worth claw off.
His crush counter hits only standing opponents so you will miss punishing flash kicks if timed wrong or things that end in a crouch state like rashid's dp.
Bnbs dont work at medium to far range. And he doesn't have a way to cause knock down that isnt a fierce attack to heavy roll or sweep (there is cr lp to ASE but you need to be in the guy's dick for it)
And his command grab switches sides and has some of the worst range for being one.
He does have the best v trigger + critical art. A fully stocked Vega is huge comeback potential and very easy to punish jumpers when he is
The hurtbox with his claw on really pisses me off tho.

You asked how much FM he had generated though.

That's some pretty useful info.

You're essentially relearning the game here. All that muscle memory that you had is gone and you're gonna have to adjust.
It's gonna take time to learn but it'll be worth it.
I can already tell it'll be worth it I love the feel of the buttons so much holy shit. This ball joystick is incredibly small in my hand though. Wondering about those bat sticks but I am just going to stick with stock for now and adjust in time.

Facebook. See if your area has a Facebook group for meet ups.
I'm part of the jersey FGC group and plan to finally go to some casuals/weeklies when I finish finals.
Keep at it! I find myself still improving my joystick execution after years of owning a stick. Honestly I think my execution would be best if I had 6 sanwa buttons and a dpad haha

It looks so silly when someone hits the claw and it doesn't even trade but outright beats it smh.
I had the most satisfying ranking match last night! It was a Ryu mirror against a barely platinum player and I was just on the threshold of becoming Super Silver. Took the match and ranked him down! He didn't want a runback though 
I can see why though since I won with a dash up shoryu on his wake up. In my defense, I was in vtrigger and I was going to cancel into super on block anyway. Victory was a confidence booster though after dropping down to bronze when I switched from Ken to Ryu

Don't worry, I read it. And it helped me do Guile trial #9 last night.
Now I have only 5 trials left...
Chun Li #10
Nash #10
Vega #7
Alex #7
Guile #10
That's basically all characters that aren't:
1. Ryu
2. Nash
3. Chun-Li
4. Necalli
5. Ken
Oh, and possibly Fang.
Not suprising that top 32 of tournaments are basically filled with these five

Rog's totally going to lose his Smash since focus attacks are not a thing and no longer need to be broken.

Where's the best place to look up a character's blockstrings?

Nice. You still have those matches? I'd like to watch them. Really interested in seeing how he approaches the matchup. He is still playing claw I assume?
Still could be useful for corner carry in this game.
Not sure, but you can practice blockstrings in training by setting Guard to 'block first hit only'. If a string of attacks are a true blockstring the dummy will keep blocking.
what if it's his V-skill?
They should be one of the most recent matches if you search for my CFN, which is FluxWaveZ. It was still Vega, yeah.

Hopefully theyre still there by the time I can get on.

my favorite people are the people that you can tell are just passive aggressively making you wait the 10 seconds on the rematch screen without simply choosing to quit

How is one supposed to deal with Vega's Wall dives. Ex and normal.
If he goes to the wall opposite of you, jump towards him. If he goes to the wall towards you, jump back with him. If he does it and you're in the corner, get fucked.
Make it guard break?
Well any character and just avoid them by dashing forward or dashing back. If he just randomly did it, you can jump up for the air to air and you can hit him before he can hit you. There's usually an air normal that hits "up" which should work well. And of course, there's always Birdie's d.mp.
What's your character?
My way of thinking is I forced them to bury their head into their hands in shame and they can't even look at the screen.

If it's any consolation, I had to do that yesterday when I was playing. I was doing the peepee dance during the fight, and had to go to the bathroom as soon as it was over. Couldn't sit through the win animation and points tally screen.
You guys need to see SMUG playing against Tool Assisted, the infamous bot on SFV.

Hey guys I forgot about this game does anyone in this thread remember it
Remember what?
I remember when I beat this thing. Good times.

I beat him early on but I think he improved his bot a ton since then. Seems nearly impossible to beat him now if he isn't just fucking around.
Played some sets with a friend of mine. Looking for feedback.

I lose for free to Karin, Rashid, and Gief. Friend told me a few things about the Karin matchup after this set (so that he could get those Ws, which made me laugh out loud). I'm looking for general stuff about my play, though. I'm having trouble breaking Gold, and I don't think it's because I'm not a "gold level player," but just because there are some hurdles in my gameplay that I'm not seeing. I was at 3904 points last night and then lost two games to a silver Ryu (2-1, lost 200 points!) that I should have beat, and I just got frustrated and stopped playing.
#sigh
Also, if you play any of those characters, I want to get some sets in with you. My win rate against Rashid is just ridiculously low. A bit better on Karin and Gief, but I recognize my weakness fighting those characters.
My semester is almost over and I'm going to start grinding matches out.
