Juri fireball into Drive Rush might be one of the top 5 scrubbiest moves in this game.

 

Why is it like this? 😂

Bruh Juri moves at the speed of light - it's insane how fast she is.  Remember when she was a zoner in SF4 lol

Haitani's tier list.  Probably the most qualified of anyone on the current meta since he's ranked every character to Master.  

@Darc_Requiemwishing you a speedy recovery!

I think that's because he spilt beer on his hitbox.

Invitationals are not sporting events, they are promotional ones.

Why not invite the best players then?  They should be the one's promoting the game not players from other games.  

Hopefully Capcom releases an emergency patch before Red Bull Kumite this weekend.  If not, the tournament organizers will have to make sure players don't have an SIA button bound.

Also, why are Arslan Ash and Leffen invited for this?  That's like having a Tekken invitational and inviting Daigo and Justin Wong.  

Blanka hasn't been a contender since.....like CvS2.  Cool to see!

Why is this a problem? lol.  

@EvilCanadiancongrats.  I noticed your choose a main character vid had like 650K views.  That's crazy!

Any Jaime players here? I can't seem to connect the jmp part in his level 3 super followup. 

 

 

The follow up is down + 2 kicks, jhk, jmp ex dive kick then heavy dp. 

 

But I can't seem to connect the jmp no matter what. I press up forward + mp but my punch still whiffs. 

The timing is really strict mid screen.  I only think it's worth going for mid screen if you're trying for the kill, if not it's better to do st.HP into sweep target combo for a drink level.  Unfortunately, st.HP into sweep target combo is also kind of strict (not sure why so many of his juggles are this difficult, thanks Capcom). The j.MP ex dive follow-up is simpler to land in the corner than mid screen but then you could just do cr.HP, ex. palm, HK.DP which is easier and possibly does more damage?  I'll have to check that later.

What characters would you guys say are strong against Manon? JP and Guile seem like the most obvious answers but I need other opinions. The last section of my Manon guide is tips for fighting her. You guys have more experience than me.

iDom said Juri is a hard matchup because Manon struggles against her slow fireball into Drive Rush.

Anybody wanna put bets on whether Rashid gets install or tornado as a level 2?

I'm dreading Rashid release because the last of the Jamie players John Takeuchi and JB will probably switch back and then nobody will be carrying the Jamie torch 😭

He's saying HC is worse to face/harder to fight, so you agree with him then. But yeah I agree can't really compare Strive with SF6 the rules are just different even if JP kind of breaks the mold.

 Nemo thinks Happy Chaos is worse to face than JP and that ArcSys players are better at handling JP in general.

Not talking about but just you specifically, but it’s crazy to me that I see so many complaints about Drive Impact when Drive Rush is easily twice as dumb. 

Difference is that Drive Rush is actually fun, at least for me.  DI is just annoying to deal with because you have to completely structure your offense around it if someone is DI happy.   

Man Drive Impact is really annoying lol.

Lots of useful tips in this one.

 

 

So all I have to do is wait until the last second and then parry but if it's a command grab then neutral jump and if he does the fast overhead then do a preemptive drive rush.   And if he does Ultra 2 block mid, high, low, high.  Sounds easy.

I say cut his drink levels to 3 and have his current level 1 drink be his base. His dive kick is locked behind a drink. Cammy and Juri's aren't. That would also bump his base damage from 90% to 95%.

That would be a nice buff. Plus it would unlock his lp, lk, mp target combo from the get go - which is pretty essential for his BnB's to do any damage. Two jabs into rekka does nothing especially at 0 drink levels. It'd also mean he'd have to drink less and get to attack more.

Think Cammy might be underrated. She can dash up and be +2 after MK spiral arrow. Her st.mk is long enough to fight the people who have cancelable st.mks.

 

Also,

 

 

Can't really think of many Anime game ideas that I liked seeing in SF5. Almost all of them ended up being unenjoyable, shitty things to deal with. Now we got Kim with spray can set ups and blanka doll stuff. Wonder how long until people wise up to those things being garbage too?

This guy is taking things way too seriously.  Not sure why he's getting triggered so easily, those anime jokes have been around forever.  There's stupid shit said about every game he really didn't need to post an essay on the topic.  

That was a good tourney, Shine was the MVP with Kimberly.

@HeavensCloudFunny thing is, when it comes to the damage nerf issue, Kimberly has it as well. She doesn't get 100% damage until she pops a level 3.

Do you know what she starts off the match doing?  Is it scaled to 90% like Jamie?

Nemo's tier list.

I can kind of see why people are putting Jamie low tier.  He starts the round at a handicap and doesn't actually start doing the same damage as everybody else until he gets to drink level 2.  He has to sacrifice oki and pressure in order to drink to get there.  And some matchups like against JP and Guile (possibly Sim, Blanka and Dhalsim as well)  it's hard to get any drinks in at all.  Also I'm not sure why he can't end a combo in drink and then continue pressure in the corner, you aren't plus after that which I think you should be.  

Still think the character has potential and is fun to play so not giving up on him or anything but I can see why pro's kind of bounced off him and went to characters like Dee Jay or Cammy instead.  

I've fought every character except Honda, Blanka and Dhalsim.  Not looking forward to fighting them either lol.  

Blanka's corner pressure at @1:17. Wow.

Tier list from Mago, Gachikun, and Tokido.

 

Luke still #1 lol.....at least everyone isn't playing him at the moment, and he at least seems to be cooler than his SFV version.

Interesting they have Dhalsim and Lily as bottom tier and that also reflects the master ranks that @Illwill88posted.
