So everyone, the last two months have been a hell of a ride. Life threw my family a curve ball. While my soon-to-be son is good, my wife was diagnosed with cancer. I checked out of almost everything in the latter half of May. I haven't said anything in this space because while it's hard to say it, it's much tougher to read it.
 
One of those facts that you never thought you'd learn is that you can have chemo while pregnant with very little risk to the child in the 2nd/3rd trimester (around 2%). Everything is on the up and up. The baby is healthy and tracking normally. My wife (all things considered) is doing remarkably well with the treatment.  The medical team has been nothing but stellar, and the support we've gotten has been awesome.
 
We're having our baby shower this coming weekend, and we've switched it to virtual (since my wife is immuno-compromised). Again, we've got nothing but love from family and friends. Coming to this space has been good as it's a refuge from the grind since we found out. I've also been super reflective. The old adage goes, "Be kind because you don't know what others are going through." I was already pretty empathetic, but this has kicked it up a notch.
 
Still have a few things to prep for (e.g., reviewing what's left on the registry and the daddy-do list) since he'll be here in a month. It's all coming together beautifully. 
 
Thank you all for being great play cousins!

You mean Sonerodamus right?

Hey all , new here. Got tipped off to this forum from a dude on Icon Era. 
 
I'm a terrible fighting game player but I love the genre, Street Fighter always been my favourite. Just like hearing fighting game talk so I'll probably lurk more than I post but glad to be here all the same!
 
As I said I'm pretty bad and have mostly just been enjoying playing random select and trying to find someone who clicks. I always used Vega in 5, pissed he's not here but I'm holding out hope because IIRC in the early trailers there was a spray tag for Vega's name on one of the walls.
 
Been eyeing Jamie but still feels like I'm waiting for my character. 
 
Game is a ton of fun in general but I get blown up by DI a lot. I am working on getting better reaction times with it, but a part of me can't help but feel DI doesn't belong in the form it exists. At a high level maybe it's more fun to have to worry about/punish with, but at a lower skill level it just feels like you gave both sides a "now I get a free combo" button that is hard to react to.

You guys don't want it with Bigtochiro. Dude maybe one of the biggest assholes I've played. Actually he may be second place to MisterBee.
 
Need to replay both of htem to see who plays like the biggest asshole ATM.
 
Honorary mention to Sha because this game has turn him into rabid Bostonian at times. Might as well change his name to CelticFans83.

I think off his sweep target combo into drink and ex rekka into drink hes + on the knockdown. Ex palm also seems to let him get two drinks on a lot of the cast without a punish. That said base Jamie definitely is not very strong, and people always gravitate to whats stable. He looks really fun though, and the drinks do pay off...if he gets them
I heard someone translate the discussion on that tier list and it came down to "down down motion for a dp is actually bad because it means she has to stop moving to use it. Good input defensively, but not good for advancing and keeping ground" and "not having a throw loop in the corner in this game really sucks". They all seemed to agree she has a lot of potential though.

Ok @Sonerothe gods of Japan have spoken. You have 5 choices for your main. We're holding you to it like the homies we are.   
 

This game shits furiously on SFV in almost every possible way

Random trivia.
 
4 prejump frames.
3 postjump frames, empty jump = block/tech.
Strikes beat throws on same frame!
23f average back dash, 15f throw invincible, totally grounded.

 2f unthrowable after exiting hitstun / blockstun.
Counterhit grants +2
Punish counter (whiff punish) grants +4
4f input buffer = reliable links.
 
If a combo starts with a special-cancelable low MK there's extra damage scaling.
 
Perfect parry scales harshly. Drive Rush scales but only once if used many times in the same combo. No scaling when starting with Rush. You haven't hit them yet.

made a neat cheatsheet table for various pros and how to find them online
 
I'll try and keep track of stuff to update it from time to time to check back once in a while
