Ibuki's freeze frame on her match winpose is on some Hey Arnold! minor character shit. That's the closest thing the smile reminds me of.

That might be one of the Japan exclusive colors. But no, they give you 1-10 for Default and Battle but Default has 11-15, EX1, and EX2. EX1 being Japan Only and EX being CPT 2016 bundle exclusive.

Which outfit is it? Each character's standard have another 5 colors that become available to purchase off CFN as you raise their experience level (color 15 being the final unlock @ level 50)
The face of a youthful Ibuki filled with hope and optimism.
the hair is so garbage in this game
That costume is ok
I think that costume gets too bad of a rap. Got the Nsync color.
Now alex's story outfit, you what even is that? I think it was attempt to be sexy, i think it failed. But i'm not the demo for that.
A squirrel costume would fit her.
EDIT: Maybe even a flying squirrel costume. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Well yeah but... He now has no meter left, and over half his V-Trigger is gone. Just sayin.
Move certainly should be either more punishable oB or have frame 3 armor instead.

When they say dumbed down they mean "Hey this overly complicated part of the meta that I like was toned down."
Kinda sad to see SFV to be in the position its in, but again it still reminds me of how people treated SFIV during its tenure.

I feel like Birdie's wakeup was fine before. EX Bullhead having frame 1 armor was good because it gave him wakeup options outside of V-Trigger, and it was still a commitment so you couldn't just do it at the drop of a hat.
Regular bullhorn has frame 1 armor in V-Trig, but EX doesnt even though both are punishable?? Makes no sense to me honestly. Then you have EX bullhead that's no longer punishable with frame 1 armor.

It's silly, but the downsides are a waste of resources which they could use on other things. It's a clown shoes moment, and it's one that people can still fight against.
Weird that Tampa would even complain since he can do a bunch of things right after lol
SF4 was "babbys first fighting game". Now that shit is a work of art. Same with SF3, where the game got shit for the parry system and ridiculous balance until 3rd Strike.

Well, it was his second fighting game right after he started with HD Remix (and won EVO...)

Good post. I agree with all of this. In a way the current meta feels like a bit of throwback to vanilla when there were no rise options and vortex ruled.
15 is the one I meant but 13 is my jam too. Guess I'll have to cave at some point. I mean I have to, right. I have to.
Haunts if you're reading this. We want a cut.

Dang, VesperArcade thinks the V-trigger for Kolin freezes the stun bar on hit until the Kolin player gets hit.
That definitely ups the potential for it if you're skilled at keeping away or applying smart pressure. And she has counters to fuck up your attempts to stick her back. And she has two uses of it based on timer.
It's probably not as strong as it seems, but this combined with her potential snowball setups means she's the next V-trigger 50/50 character.

I think you mean Chun,Ken,Necalli,Mika. Nash was seen a lot mainly due to Infil and Yukadon. In fact outside of those two and Joe,NuckleDu I dont recall a lot of placements.
Heck towards the end of the season you only saw Bonchan being consistent and the rest just dropped.
It also depends on how impactful Season 2.1 patch will be. If some Zoners like Ryu,Nash get buffed back to high tier then gief might move down a few slots.

Does FANG have safe specials? Does he have a dependable AA game? I'm trying to see if he can fit my play style. He's dumb as hell and his design is awful, but nobody plays him so I'm intrigued. It must be extremely satisfying to win with him, too, knowing that your opponent is probably ripping his hair out in real-life.
Re: safe specials - generally no, not on block.
His EX specials are all safe. LK ryobenda (b,f+lk) is relatively safe via distance as long as you aren't using it when cornered. And his fireballs, while unsafe, can set up some favorable trade situations if the opponent doesn't react properly.
For antiairs, I feel like he generally has a pretty good selection between cr.hp, cr.mk, st.mk, st.lp, st.mp, and fireballs.

I struggle against Bison and played one who I was 100% was about to beat me easily until something happened. Only I have no idea what I or he did differently for me to turn it around.
Anybody see anything I don't or have any tips or suggestions for me (Nash)?

Three server errors in a row. Guess that's my cue to stop playing for a bit. Matches have been pretty solid the past week though, so if they can fix these errors and load times or time between matches I'll be happy.
Edit: Now it's fine. Got a perfect on a Ryu and he wouldn't gimme dat run back lulllllll.

But that cornor carry and chip damage.
From what I can tell, there isn't much of anything that really changed between the matches where you lost and the ones where you won. It seemed to be the same game plan; it's just that both of your skill levels are the same, so it turned out that you won some of those matches because that's what happens.
There's a ton for you to improve:
1. Way too much jumping. Anytime you jump, you are at your most vulnerable in this game. You can't just jump aimlessly without a reason to do so. Typically, jumps are done because you've conditioned your opponent to expect pressure/footsies on the ground, and they feel comfortable enough to throw out a strong move with powerful recovery. This is when jumps are their most effective. Cross-up range is good too. But not all the time like you were doing here. The same goes for those moonsaults. If you went against an opponent who could AA consistently, those would basically be the same as jumps.
2. Bad pressure when you get a knock down. You have to learn meaties and plus buttons to pressure them when you knock your opponent down. This is the most important part when it comes to offense, and you're not really doing anything with it a lot except for sometimes neutral jumping to bait a throw, or something.
3. Your ground game mainly consists of backdashing > throwing a fire ball and then dashing/jumping in or doing a moonsault. You'll need to learn proper pokes and simply walking (despite Nash's slow walk speed). When you're playing at this pace, it's also much easier to anti-air, which you were missing a lot of. Also, consider your opponent's longest range pokes. There are "danger ranges" for Bison where you should be keeping in mind at all times if you're going to be at the defensive. The kind of stuff that results in Crush Counter after Crush Counter.
4. Don't always feel like you need to be doing something on wake-up. Blocking is, most often than not, your best option. Opponents who would meaty you consistently wouldn't let you get away with a lot of what you were doing.

Zero Suit Cammus
Finally made it to 5k LP earlier today, the road to Platinum is a tough one but I'm slowly getting there. Practicing setups in the lab and figuring out when I can press buttons has helped greatly.
I'm in love only because it's Samus, otherwise fuck Cammy.

ST caused a mass exodus in the competitive scene back in the 90s because the Hyper Fighting players hated supers.
It's not like people were winning any money, so if the game sucked they just went to play Doom or lazer tag or loiter at malls or whatever.
You play Urien though.

This is exactly what I needed. Thanks Flux.
There are some characters I can stay grounded with but Bison scares me. I feel like I need to stay on top of him and away from his CC fishing. I feel like in front of or under bison are the most dangerous places to be and the fact that this guy wasn't really AAing made my jumping worse. Bison's jump is also awkward. I need to get over all of this.
The hit and run tactics I noticed and has been something I've been doing since the beginning. I also believe it's a big part of when I lose. I become predictable and 80% of the time at least just Moonsault to get in because it's plus and easier than footsies.
Alright so don't jump so much.
Put on good pressure on knockdown, more consistently.
Slow down the dashing and rely more on walking to get a better control over the air.
Footsies. It's scary but I'll lose without it anyway. My footsies right now consist of step kick and lock MK. Those are my longest pokes and what I feel I can do with minimal risk of being countered.
For Bison specifically I need to learn his danger zones/range for those CC.
Block more on wakeup.
Thanks again, man. I'm about to practice this right now.
Technically Cammy does this too.

I just fought a Bison who I did good at first but once he realized I couldn't do anything against his scissors and CC fishing from out of punish range he just abused it.

Neutral jump.
Urien is a cool guy in a suit who will fuck your shit up.
