I think Bison is super legit right now been Playing him since beta he was my first main he feels so much better now. I'm abusing the new hitbox on his cr HP timed right it stuffs just about everything. All of the Characters I play feel a lot better in Season 2. Bison, Laura, Urien and I am loving Akuma his offense is just nasty. I'm on the fence about Necali he seems like hes in the same place but I keep getting killed trying to do my command throw with punch...... cant tell you how many matches I have lost due to that shit being burned into my muscle memory trying to unlearn it asap.

It might be another year until I take Akuma online tbh

could never
I find his combos super fun and rewarding to pull off but man can it be a bitch to win with him sometimes. His low HP and stun resist makes me feel stressed when I get hit. 2 combos and it's nitenite
But it's nothing new, I'm adjusting again to him now. Still my current fave on the roster.
The stun buff and dp nerfs help a lot. His neutral is good so even if you don't get to convert a whole lot the grey life and the general badgering he's capable of make up for it. And when you do get a hit the stun you can deal in one bar combo or a reset is very real.

Give me deets! I have to live vicariously through you guys.
So, seriously trying to learn Laura now with the buffs I think. I always liked her and wanted her to be my main, but unfortunately I fell in love with Mika first. So, I'm struggling with the knockdown situation with her. What's a good sequence to go into once I get the knockdown? Also, if I wanna mix them up and actually get to the other side with her v-skill, how do I actually do that? I can't seem to get it right in training mode. Does it require the forward dash first? And is the best fireball to use a fierce one?

Guile is one of those character who seems easy to play because he only has 2 special moves but once you get out of the beginner level he is anything but easy. Using advanced charging charging techniques, proper spacing, good use of his command normals (there are lots), and adjusting your gameplan based on the situation are required for high level play.
He really shines at lower level play where you can spam booms and flash kicks all day and be successful but once you get up higher level he requires much a lot more knowledge and skill compared to other characters IMO. Easy to learn, hard to master.
Shows as +0 on toolassisted frame data.
The toolassisted site I see has it as -2.
Which are we using
I mean, if it's 0 that'd be something to help a move that is pretty situational at least
Yeah, but I think I'm got used to it pretty fas bc of how fast the game was in S1.
If I was coming to him from SFIV I might cry a little though
My absolutely favorite gimmick in the game is, after ending a combo in mp inferno, doing empty lk scissors and then hold v skill to chuck a fireball point blank in their grill. Can follow it up with super in the corner. Mid screen pretty much anything. Works on both neutral and back tech and will beat 3f buttons. It's a bit of a risk but then a good gimmick is. When it works you can physically see their souls leave through their characters.
Edit. - If this doesn't put a smile on every Bipson player's face, I don't know what will.
Also in addition to this I'm wondering if I should just buy the game on PC. I haven't bought Season 2 DLC on PS4 yet, but it's only 18 more bucks to get the game on PC with all the DLC. Guys halp.
St.HK is -2 but the st.HK > st.HK target combo is 0. Unless I read the wrong column or row.
st.hk is -2, TC HK HK is 0. So it's 0.

Im using the same one. I believe we are talking about TC HK>HK being +0 on block.
Edit: Super late....
Hmmmm.... interesting. The timing seems tight though. Ill have to try it when I get home.
lol, no sorry 3rd strike joke
Yeah, that makes sense!
Oh, this is real? Nice. Of course avoiding super fast links like that are part of the reason I play Alex to start with so... guess it's time to git gud.

I thought I was gonna put in some time into the game with season 2.
Didn't expect the matcmaking to actually take 2 steps back into "cant find a match in 2 hours" territory.
Fuck this.

Are you trying Casual? I'm guessing most people are still there testing out their characters.
Or the game is dead. Who knows.

Strange, I'm getting loadsa matches right now.
After three losses, I held onto my Super Bronze status by facing a Sliver Guile who was afraid of my fake mixups.
Akuma can really fuck with your head

Game will remain dead until there's an arcade mode.
But the matchmaking was only fucked for this game near launch when most of the people in the Middle Eastern region had severe issues finding each other through matchmaking. We still have Battle Lounges but there's still a large amount of players that I don't know that I used to run into online.
Now that old problem is back and I literally can't find anyone. And I'm not the only one.
Ma boy Q!!!
matchmaking is wonky
last night I went through spells of it being super fast (considering the long load times of SFV) and spells where it would not give me a match for up of ten minutes (all while going back to the main menu every time)
personal theory on why Capcom doesn't even bother to fix the load times: faster load times would mean more requests to the matchmaking servers and those cannot handle that load

Got disconnected from the server 10 minutes ago and despite trying, I can't get logged in again. Is it just me.

Super Silver! and I get matches pretty quick.
Where do you live?
And oh god, I just trolled a troll so well, have to save this replay. He keeps trying to join my lobby, too.

I want to see urien's 3S stage come back in UE4
There was but one of the recent updates broke it. Don't know if the mod was updated.

That stage would be wonderful if it is devoid of silly NPCs, but very nice if the NPCs are monks or people that are onlookers instead of dancing fools.
The time issue is so true. When you don't have as much time to commit as others it does become an uphill battle and every loss or win's impact is magnified. I just want Platinum so that stronger randoms in battle lounges don't quit on me. UItra Gold might even be enough. You are also right about Capcom's ranking system not being very good. It seems to me that it would make sense to have a main profile and a sub one that people can use in ranked for other characters. Hopefully by SFVI ideas like these become a standard part of the launch package.
I hated Ryu, Necalli, Ken and Chun, but V-Trigger Bison has a special place in my heart. That just ain't right, man.
The neatest tech I've seen was Cool Kid's safe stun gun headbutts in the corner, but this is wild looking. I didn't know that the opponent is still in a backwards state even if he blocks the HP chop. Unfortunately it looks terribly unsafe to do when you consider the frame data.

Broke through 800 points last night! I know that's super low but after struggling to get into Bronze it feels like a real achievement. There are so many super aggressive players at this level and it can be really frustrating but I'm finding that patience and sticking to fundamentals in the face of some dude spamming combos at me is working. Hoping to rank up again this weekend.
I need it.
I completely forgot about this, what is taking Capcom so long to release this and other nostalgia outfits?
It probably wasn't nearly ready but they showed off the art for this and the nostalgia costumes because at big tournaments and conventions Capcom is expected to show off something for SFV and they probably didn't have anything ready.
Also, they are probably releasing things piecemeal so people have a reason to jump back into SFV every month.
I am feasting on the flood of Akuma, but still don't know how to fight the grapplers + Cammy with him.
I am starting to V-Skill Cammy's divekick, that seems to be huge.

Posts like these can get lost in the shuffle with the higher lv talk, so as always I look for 'em. GJ man! keep on that learning grind. Know I am.
And yes it is an achievement, no matter how small.
SF3 and Capcom anniversaries are this year.
