I think I've seen more Giefs than Chun, Cammy, or Necalli in S2.
Cammy is now the 4th most common character that I run on Ranked, just behind Gief. Chun and Necalli are 7th and 10th, respectively.

He's gotten some decent buffs this season but also a few nerfs which are pretty serious. Mainly the increase in startup of cr.mp and st.mk.
He just FEELS not fun to play, it's difficult to describe. In season 1, he felt fun but season 2 as a whole just doesn't feel that enjoyable and FANG suffers in that as well.
If I had to try and explain, it feels like FANG is the "fish for counter hits" character in terms of offense. Against a player with good defense, he just doesn't feel that strong and he still feels so weak compared to a large chunk of the cast now that it's not even funny.game.capcom.com/cfn/sfv/adjust2017/en/1.html
Don't worry what anyone says man, just pick the character you want and enjoy it.
I mained FANG, a low tier character, but I still never had trouble beating top tier characters and players once I got familiar with the matchups.
Thanks for the info man!
I stopped playin' back in Season 1 when the issues made almost impossible to play the game. (Long long load times, not getting XP after matches, disconnects,etc).
Where the load times improved on Season 2 ?
You're 100% right.As far as I'm concerned, super plat is really just a fancy name for super silver. Which means in the grand scheme of things, I'm still only around super silver rank. The point creep has probably made a lot of people, like me, think they're better than they are.
Must get better. I feel like sf is 95% ass players who play other ass players who hang themselves. And the top 5% are players who can actually beat someone instead of just waiting for their opponent to shit themselves.

I mean, it's not like that defensive style of waiting for the other player to make their own mistakes is a bad way to go. It's why everyone where I live keeps dying to Snafoo week after week.
If this is what players see, no wonder they lose to him.Incredible normals, high range normals, has some particularly good specials, V-Trigger can lead into some ridiculous shenanigans and resets, his EX tackle is a good YOLO move, actually has legitimately damaging anti airs, and has an EX invincible reversal.
In a matchup that's even remotely neutral heavy, he is VERY strong. Thing is that he doesn't have anydownsides to counter like low health/stun or slow normals or anything so that gives him a significant advantage.
So you completely agree, basically lol
S1 Chun was okay at best imo.
Idk why people had trouble with her st.HP, you can whiff punish it free on recovery.
Every character could AA air legs too, no issue here tbh
her buttons are decent, can all be whiff punished.
her fireball is kinda slow and jank, I wouldn't use it in neutral imo
her st.LK AA was fine, yea she got a 50/50 off of it in most situations but it lost to Ryu's j.LK sometimes so it was fine
B-HP being a force field is fine, you shouldn't be pressing buttons after she presses her buttons anyway
So uhhh.
Xian is dropping F.A.N.G

Literally no pro player playing F.A.N.G anymore.
I can't figure out who fits his playstyle. He likes a character with long pokes and setup potential that's what I've gathered. Is he joining the Urien army?...Oh No.
So basically, what he said then
No, I disagree with safe specials and no weakness. When all the strong cast are in your face or Guile, Urien isn't some beacon of free wins. Any 4f character with a +1 or 0 on block normal/special should know that's not strong in reality. FANG hated fighting Chun due to this and her 3f jab.So you completely agree, basically lol
I think he's been putting time into Ibuki but I suppose time will tell. Poor dude might genuinely be suffering from a character crisis.

Ibuki would be so sick, love that idea
+2 oB gives him 3f frame traps off it using stLP, crLp and crLK. This leads to a better throw game too. He had to use stLK before.The cr.MK buff was my "wait.. why???" change lol. It really doesn't make any sense and he doesn't need it but ayyyy
I'm so happy Urien bops Laura, don't have to put up with her bullshit.
8-2 MU, I have no idea what they were thinking with these urien buffs ;-;
mikathinking.jpgThinking? See, that's your first mistake.
Have you seen this? Long guide from Javits:I get bodied by every Laura I fight. Legit don't know how to deal with that type of play style. But to be fair, I was pretty bad against her in season 1, so its not a character MU problem.

She can't get in and her fb is useless here. There's no better feeling than backdashing out here cmd grab to dash back in and crHP her dumb face.8-2 MU, I have no idea what they were thinking with these urien buffs ;-;
Someone needs to update the mikathinking.jpg for season 2.

This is how I feel vs Ibuki or BirdieThanks, I'll read this later. I think I need more experience most importantly. I alwsys go long periods without ever fighting a Laura, and when I do, a couple rounds isn't long enough for me to adjust. I just get blown up in 2 mixups and the round is over. I need to play a long extended set with someone...
CountBlack pls

Well problem for me is I play a bunch of fraud Lauras in ranked and then I'll play Rocwell or Count Laura and get bopped. I feel I should pickup Laura just to learn the matchup...Thanks, I'll read this later. I think I need more experience most importantly.

I'm seeing Chris everywhere, but what happened to Julio, always thought he was the true leader of the trinity in my eyes.

Xian's Fang was sooo good but I gotta be honest, I am so pleased for him that he is dropping the character.
