I used to play Counterstrike before I got into fighting games and the former is definitely easier. Anyone saying that fighting games are easy is lying. They're hard and will always be niche because of this. People that are attracted to fighting games enjoy putting in the work to lab, work on execution, learn matchups, etc. There's no instant gratification - it's a tough climb but a fun one.

If it's at the end of a round/match 95% of the time it's a ragequit. I only have 7 on my blacklist since June and 4 of them are Ken players 😂

@elliephilwhat are the best options against wakeup Sim level 3? Every Sim I fight does SA3 the moment I corner them. I'm too lazy to lab this.

I'm always surprised by how much damage Marisa does off of just about anything.

Wish more players felt this way to be honest.

@Darc_RequiemI meant moveset! Mayor Cody is cool and we can always have the nostalgia costume anyway.

The players that offer a challenge are the one's you should be fighting in order to grow as a player. People that blacklist are just going to get worse at the game but I guess an online title means more than improving for some. It's like the Master players that go into Battle Hub to beat up on silver players to rack up a 95% win rate. Weird mentality.

I just assume they're saving him but I don't want to wait lol. I'd like to see a return to the Alpha 3 version of Cody. I hope they up it to five or six characters for S2. Waiting a whole year for four characters ain't doing it for me.

Speaking of Final Fight where's Cody? He better be in season 2 or I'm going to riot.

A Jamie got 33rd. I count that as a win lol.

It's on pretty late for me but I caught a bit of it. Great to see a stacked offline event again. Having Mike Ross on commentary was a blast from the past. Looking forward to top 64 tonight.

The only thing I agree with in that Sonic_sol video is the input issues and even then he showed a clip of Chris T complaining about not getting super with like the sloppiest input ever 🤣 Showing clips of streamers being salty, could literally do that for any fighting game.

I have a feeling Ken, Luke and Cammy are going to be good for the entirety of SF6 just based on how they fit what's good in the game. Anybody else still do forward forward for DR cancel? I tried to make a concerted effort to switch to medium punch medium kick input but I can't get my hands to do anything else after two months of grinding prior to the change. Funny enough when I do the character trials I do the new input but I still use the old method with Jamie.

Looks like Kichipa did as well. He's using modern Lily now.

Did he say what his favourite fighting game is? I have a feeling these people hating on SF6 started with V and don't know any better.

Unless something changes, I could see A.K.I., Jamie and Lily all getting overbuffed next patch. I say that because I think they're not far off from being strong characters and the narrative around all three of them is doom and gloom.

https://www.eventhubs.com/imagegallery/2023/oct/05/nemos-street-fighter-6-ki-match-chart/1/ Nemo's A.K.I. matchup chart. He has seven 3-7 matchups and six 2-8 matchups..... There's no way she can be that bad.

Yep, mostly on wakeup for some reason. It's to the point I barely even try wake up level 1 because there's such a high chance it won't even come out and I'll take damage.

The two characters I was most interested in prelaunch are both sitting in D tier lol. It was the opposite in V where every character I liked ended up being top tier. Jamie is a strange one. He's hard to put on a tier list because of his drink mechanic. He starts the match as the worst character in the game but at level 4 he's top tier. He's a momentum based character where some rounds really go his way and he looks OP and then others are a real struggle. I also noticed Jamie mains don't downplay at all, they actually believe he's pretty good. Naruo who's probably the best Jamie right now thinks he's in the upper half of the cast.

Easily the best A.K.I. I've seen so far. Whenever a new character comes out I'm always watching Kazunoko, Momochi and J. Wong. They have an amazing knack of being able to figure out characters week 1.

I'm wondering if they started deleting replays with the A.K.I. patch. I had a bunch of replays saved and they now have a red icon next to each match and I can't view them. And it's not like these are ancient replays - they're from four days ago.

BG3 is sooo good. Game wasn't even on my radar and now I can't stop playing lol.

Nemo got to test out A.K.I.

Tapping perfect parry on defence is pretty low risk. You can honestly tap it in a rhythm similar to throw tech in SF4 and sometimes get a 'random' perfect parry which lets some characters like Ken side switch into corner knockdown, or Jamie can get a palm into 2 full drinks. It isn't really about the damage.

I like large rosters. New characters add hype and keeps things spicy. 6 characters a year means it's more likely I get my favourites added, and even if they aren't - it's still going to create buzz for the game.
