I just got beat up by a super silver, fuck em.
Seriously though, Laura is such a bastard.
Never in the history of SF did I think this would be happen , yet SFV manages to do it.
You probably did some airborne move like an overhead , backdash or something.
Okay I'll upload it tomorrow as I don't have time right now, get ready to laugh though. I watched the replay a few times.
Actually just search for my user: HowCanSheSlap
and watch that last ranked match with Zangief (I'll play casual now), go to the last round at around 56 seconds. Like I said get ready to laugh because it's by far the most silliest thing I've seen in this game so far.

All that time grinding out the Dash Demon wasn't wasted thank god. Finally nailed it in a match.

Look at my inputs on the right:
It was a backdash. That's so dumb lol.
Been a thing for a while. Usually don't see it bc people don't backdash defensively like that usually
I don't like it
Yeah I've never seen anything like that before that's why I'm so surprised. I don't understand how a backdash can make me magically teleport into the air, but whatever I guess.
I am so lost against this character under pressure.
I think the idea is that if someone hits you out of a backdash, he will only get one hit for an air-reset and not a full combo.

As it was mentioned before, it was a thing in SF4 because backdashes were so good. They had i-frames, and if you got tagged you could just keep doing it since getting hit meant you were moving backwards anyways. The airborne change was so that if they're hit, they do an air reset, land, then they can move again.
This led to some cool strategies with certain characters since they could predict the backdash and use one of their anti-air Ultras.
what are you losing to?
Jump ins mostly, he can mix it up enough for me to always guess wrong.
the range on light and Ex air SPD is GIGANTIC. it's a big box in front of zangief, so as long as you were at the height of his feet, you were in range
it's also 3f of active grab, unlike the rest of the grabs which generally is 2
I've seen Zangief whiff that so many times with me whizzing all around him so I was surprised that teleport shit was even a thing.
it has its uses; sometimes I misjump a fireball and it can stop you in midair saving you, tho the recovery is so bad you can still be punished, sometimes worse than eating the fireball
also, it is unreliable as fuck, but you can jump in and if you get anti aired from the side, there is a chance to grab them instead

Didn't you pick up juri? Or did you go back to karin/cammy?

Personally, I think Guile is one of Alex's worst matchups.
When she first came out, yeah. Dropped her and tried again a few months ago and still couldn't make it work. Still using Karin/Cammy and recently started messing with Ibuki.

It's definitely not good for him at all. There are just a couple things he can exploit pretty easily. It's still in Guile's favor, though.
One thing that I'm noticing is that Guile has a pretty hard time dealing with headbutt if you catch him starting to walk back. Works well against back sobats, too. Stomps are only really useful up close, because otherwise he can react with a flash kick or walk back. There's a lot of times too I'm neutral jumping when I read a command grab. If you didn't do the command grab, you can catch me with a knee drop.

Reacting to seeing Alex leave the ground. The EX flash makes it a little easier.
Doesn't feel like Alex can do much against people who have really good reactions to his approaches (at least, I'm not used to it since people around my level can't react to the stomps/grabs/dashes like you do). I feel like he can't really play footsies against Guile either due to his slow buttons, which hurts. The only reason you lost the second set is because you were being really stubborn about not jumping to avoid my wakeup grabs, but I almost lost it once you slowed down and started flashkicking everything.
GJ by him. Still looks like a hard match up for him, though.
GGs man, close sets. The only reason I won any of those is because you play way too passively on wakeup, so I snuck in way too many grabs. You started jumping more in the last few rounds though, so that was good.

GGs. The mind games were getting pretty crazy that last set. One thing I need to get in habit of remembering is that Guile's HK Flash Kick is the throw invincible one, now. A couple times I had the read on the dash up grab and ate it because I used the LK version.
I didn't even know he had a throw invincible non ex fk.
