You can do normal lightning legs into super. Shuto Chun does it @7:10

I'm having enough fun at the moment that I don't care too much about the animations. I'm guessing enough people will probably complain on twitter, and Capcom is usually pretty receptive to criticism so I could see an improvement for DLC characters down the road. And there will be a jukebox with all the classic music on release so no worries there.

I'm having a blast playing Jamie. I had the perfect first opponent. He was a Ken player that played like a bot alternating between DI, jump, full screen tatsu and wakeup DP. It was like SF6 online tactics 101. Anyone land a perfect parry yet?

I used to play the old MK games as a kid but somewhere along the line the series fizzled for me. If this one looks and plays anything like 10 or 11 I'm out. The trailer was well done but I need to see some gameplay. According to eventhubs there's assists in the game lol.

I didn't watch this and maybe he's right about SF6 animations going downhill from earlier games like 3rd Strike but IMO SF6 animations look fine. Comparing the game to others it animates much better than MK, KOF and Tekken. I also find it kind of funny that this guy has #PlayFEXL when that game is known for having some of the worst animations out there.

SF6 Redbull Kumite let's goooo.

The tennis masters events which are a level below the grand slams are best 2 out of 3 sets and even still a top 10 player wins 90% of the time. I think it's similar with SF, 2 out of 3 has never made bad players win, that idea is so stupid. The only time I want to sit through 3 of 5 is if we're talking top 8 of a high quality CPT event.

Manon has everything that is going to cause salt: command grabs, vacuum move into guessing games, unreactable midscreen slide.

He's playing on PS5 which doesn't have DP.

I'm still playing SFV ranked and since SF6 is coming out soon, people are playing like they don't give a fuck 😅 Also, I played USF4 for the first time since 2016, and the game is actually harder than I remember. How I was once able to hit these links in delay netcode is beyond me.

Zangief Ease of Use: Hard 🤔 This seem weird to anyone else? This character has never been hard to use and has always been about making good reads. I'm wondering what we're missing.

Open beta niiicce. And I'm finally available to play this one. Didn't get into the first one and the second one I got in but then had to travel and missed it (and I was pissed lol).

SF4 Stages I liked Overpass, Morning Mist Bay and Snowy Rail Yard. The SFV stages I like are mostly just from older games: the Honda bathhouse, Field of Fate and Castle stage all look really good. Third Strike Yang and Ibuki's stages are S tier. Now that I think about it, I just like stages with not a lot going on in the background. Something simple and scenic without distractions is the best imo.

Meanwhile Daigo is loving this version of Ryu. Said on stream he wants to main him over Guile.

I've been waiting for this 😎.

As much as I liked v-shift it made Sim kind of dumb while also basically deleting Gief from the game. Sim can wreck most characters without his vtrigger so you get Sims that just spam v-shift and vreversal on defense and it's really fucking annoying to deal with. I was kind of hoping for a bottom tier Sim in 6, since he's been top in ST, Alpha 3 and now SFV (I know I'm petty). He was perfect in SF4 in my books lol.

C'mon bro, you really using the cane excuse when this is who you mained in V.

I really don't think it'll happen with the 20% damage reduction and the loss of normals. If modern does become optimal, it's certainly not a good look for the game.

SFV doesn't seem to care about diagonals for some reason. D,F,D,F will give super. In SF4 that wouldn't work but D,DF,D,DF,F did work but not in SFV. I'm not sure how it works in SF6 yet.

I'm on the fence about battle damage. What do you guys think? It's been a long time since SFII lol.

This weekend there will be a bunch of input lag tests for PC and Xbox. PS5 already looking good at 2-3ms on performance mode. The OLED you're using might actually be faster than your monitor which might be why PS5 feels better.

They forgot the 5th category "Crack Addicts". For players who have been grinding training mode 6 months prior to game release.

They had to cut some corners to improve the performance on PS4. I heard the backgrounds don't look nearly as nice. I don't mind them giving PS4 players the option as long as it doesn't affect the PS5, Series X and PC versions. The PS4 still has a pretty large install base.

I would say Chun. She's always been tricky with the situational AA's and charge timings but now on top of that you have to juggle a second stance. After that probably Jamie/Kimberly.

Yeah, you wanted to make 100% sure what you were posting was accurate. I always made sure to fact check shit I wasn't completely sure about otherwise you had ShinAkuma_6900 coming after you in full force.
