Street Fighter V: A Preliminary Thread

[Krandor]

Yeah I really need to learn more about that matchup, I was falling for alot of the same shit over and over again.

Thanks for sandbagging that last set so I could feel better about myself.

[Callisto]

trying to meaty in this game is ffffffffffff lol

[Krandor]

I blew mad chunks with my AAs, felt like I was dealing with Sakura's jump HP.

GGs though, nice to get an ass whupping like that to reinforce that I really need to learn more about that matchup.

[Callisto]

For the most part you were just too antsy to get out of throws, just gotta mix up block vs jumpout more

[Deejay]

Got bopped by one of my Vega friends... Now im thinking about making a switch to Nash

Just lol @ people thinking bipson is top tier.

Bipson is your typical kneejerk first month reaction top tier. Given the nature of this game, I can't possibly see how he is even mid tier a year from now given his baby steps walk speed. A game based on footsies, shimmies and baiting throws, making people flinch requires ground mobility.

Besides that, haven't you all learned anything? The real top tier is whoever mago plays.

And then the real SSS tier is whoever that tier whore sako plays.

Guess who? Both Karin. Pls belie' Karin will dominate this game a year down the road. It was pretty obvious to anyone who understood this game since video promotion, aka me.

[Krandor]

Oh good JCVD is back.

[Bweigelt]

Oh good JCVD is back.

I apologize for disagreeing with you about Bison. Now that JCVD has graced us with his opinion I clearly see that I was in error. My bad bro.

[Callisto]

if only Bison had some form of ground mobility to help in the footsies game

something like a dash

an invincible dash

that can be buffed to dash clear through people to make things come out the wrong direction


maybe he'd be good then

[Krandor]

Considering the abysmal throw range for most of the cast, his walk speed is more then adequate for the sake of throw bait shimmies. It's not much worse then Nash (2.3 pixels per frame vs 2.7 for Nash) but as we saw LIJoe demonstrate, it was more then enough for an effective shimmy.

Also, pointing out that a year from now the tiers would be different, no shit. This time next year we'll most likely be sitting on a new balance patch if Capcom holds to the promise of post CapCup rebalancing.

[Krandor]

Capcom's "answer" to rage quitting is such absolute bullshit. They literally have no idea what they're doing. According to Haunts you have to have an 80-90% disconnect rate to be considered a rage quitter and be punished.

oh and players with - or _ in their names can't be searched, so get fucked Leroy.

[Chun Liroy]

So after getting wrecked in my first real session... I like this game a lot but getting beat by someone significantly better than you is frustrating as hell compared to other games. I got to try out a bunch of characters, and I like bison... Gonna try out Nash and Karin next.

Maybe it's because its my sf5 partners best character... But Sim is absolutely suffocating. Idk how to play against him at all. His mixups are harder to block than I thought. My SF4 habits really are bad for this game..

[Weltall]

To beat a dead horse: a game designed to bring in the masses has done the exact opposite. This game has already sold worse given the same time frame as IV and will only get worse. New players cannot take any risks at all in this game and their interest will last a week, if that.

[Chun Liroy]

Also from a design choice why the fuck does p2 have no control over rematch/char select in local vs?!?!

[Weltall]

Chun want to play right now?
