She’s not ugly but Megan Fox looks like every other insta-thot. Hyper mid as far as famous women go.
 
Also I cringed listening to her talk about Nitara is MK1.
 
”She’s a vampire and that resonates….for some reason” 🤣

One thing I will forever hate about fighting games is how 75% of the playerbase will gravitate to a small handful of characters who you will get a shitton or experience against. But then that one time you run into someone more obscure you just constantly get your shit rocked bc you never see them and the couple ppl you do run into are usually terrible. I was fighting a Jamie earlier and he was doing shit I’ve literally never even seen before I never run into him and just fold due to unfamiliarity.
 
Gonna cherish these early days of SF6 where the roster isn’t 40 deep yet so I feel like I can actually learn every matchup.

I can't believe she said that. I heard about her drinking MGK's blood, but I had forgotten all about it....until she said that shit 😂

Pretty good? Yes.
 
Best I've ever seen....I don't know.

My guy, is you serious with this? Menat?

Fuck you bitch 😭 

Everything about his design feels like it’s sponsored by your local school shooter. 

Coming in with some good news. 
 
I was able to preserve most of my fighting game footage from my old account. 
Google Takeout. 
Some may already be aware of this. 
 
But, I was able to save nearly 13 years worth of fighting game stuff up til 2021 when I got caught up some... FFVII RE soundtrack-related issues (I was trying to upload the Hello House Boss Fight on the highest difficulty but... that's not how it worked. The warnings went to my spam email apparently). 
 
Only bad thing now is that the stuff from SFIV and SFV is practically obsolete now. But, just in case need to know: 
Google Takeout. DM me or look for the instructions on how to retrieve your files. 
 
On a more related note, one of my coworkers who plays SF6 actively has taken a liking to Juri and Guile, so I can see if I can help a brother out on that end for casuals when given the chance. 

Game is great, I like  almost everything about the game, the mechanics are great and have no issue with drive rush, drive impact etc. Character balance is the real issue here, like you have characters like jp that have everything (dude -6 sweep? Wtf?) and other characters like gief can't even aa with lariat. 

Yeah I think a lot of this is missed when I complain about 6. I have my grievances with the game but it is 1000% better than SFV in probably every way, especially if we are comparing season to season/launch to launch. No VT nonsense, no trying to check 15-16 frame dashes is 8 frames of lag, functional online, etc. 
 
When I actually get time to play I enjoy SF6 a lot. A lot of the characters feel really good to play and I like how I don’t feel too pressured to use my meter one way or another. I feel basically no stress playing this game in person or in ranked. It’s not as stress free as some single player RPG, but I can actually sit down in ranked after work for an hour and have fun, compared to 5 where I would pretty much never touch outside of lounges it if I actually wanted to relax. 
 
My biggest complaints are drive rush being too good to the point of overshadowing everything else, some of the higher tier characters feeling like they have every tool in the game/no weaknesses, and I don’t care for throw loops either. But even that stuff I could live with if I really needed to. 

Hello my dudes, how are you enjoying SF6 so far. Why is blocking bad, why is Ken, why does Honda have better corner carry than Fei Long!!!
 
This game 🫠😘

What the heck? @misterBee, I went into my iPhones safari settings and under "advanced" I found a tab called "experimental features", there all the options were toggled off, so I decided to toggle them on just to see if it would change the way my safari would interact with megashock and yup after I restarted safari this site works 100% now, so by process of elimination I found out that the option that hindered this site for me is called "intersection observer", don't have a clue what that means but having that toggled on got me the site working again. I guess I must have toggled that off by accident. I know nobody cares but just in case others ever have this issue. 

So since I only have access to training mode right now here is some quick anti-Manon tech for y’all. 
 
The following characters have lights that can safely meaty Manon on wake-up and recover in time to block SA1.
 
Blanka
Cammy
Chun
DeeJay
Dhalsim
Guile
Jamie
Juri
Ken
Kim
Rashid
Ryu
Zangief
 
13/19 characters, which was more than I was expecting tbh. I’ll add this to the Manon thread when I get a few minutes. Also take note that Manon SA1 is 10f startup, so if your main is rocking a super slower than that (Marisa, Gief, etc), this list is even longer.

Notes about the characters in bold that I think everyone should know. 
 
DeeJay: His st.lp is the fastest overall light in the game at 12 frames total. 4f startup and 6 recovery. Don’t quote me on this but if my math is correct he is the only character that can safely meaty reversals/Supers that are 8f or slower. 
 
Juri: Her st.lp is 4f start and has 4(!) active frames. Probably a top 3 meaty button in the game.
 
Kimberly: Very fast lights in general, to the point where she can meaty light Manon with 3 different buttons including cr.lk. Might not mean anything against your main but she was the only character with 3 options. Not surprisingly, she can easily set this situation up in the corner ending combos with Tatsu.

Yeah this is missing all the multi-hitters (Jamie, Guile, Lily?) and slides (Sim, DJ).

I gotta say after watching World Warrior Japan top 8 I don't like how people stopped talking about Dee jay. Ken and JP are public enemy #1 and 2, sure, but Dee jay is just creeping around the corner, biding his time and that concerns me.
 
Rashid too. All the Rashid mains stopped posting tech on twitter about a week into his launch.  Now I know why, they were cooking cuz we got guys like Gachikun putting round start tornados on screen and putting people into Killer Instinct combos until they die.

Beside Menat, Laura and Kolin were great additions
 
I believe C.Viper can be made to be popular
 
Poison as SF char seems popular too, if we count him/her as female (pretty sure average player consider Poison female) 
 
The good/forgettable ratio is'nt bad, not much different from male ones in terms of actual quality, and probably better if we speak about simple popularity
 
 

I'm in Reno celebrating that one year anniversary with my wife. Y'all play some great matches while I don't have access to the game and today's Manon's birthday, so I know the commentators will have something for the Manon mains! 

@TWINBLADES
JUSTICE FOR @Vhozite!!!
