The SF6 Thread: Mena Won Evo Japan!
elliephil replied to misterBee's topic in Fighting Game Discussion
I mean you're not wrong... but I think you might also be missing the point of what I was trying to say. If I replace "mashing parry" with "mashing dp" in the middle of strings that would probably have a completely different meaning to most players. It's a part of the game and I respect that. It's also a common criticism of 3s which has pretty close to the exact same mechanic that people didn't like for the same reasons. Edit: Sonero summed it up perfectly. -

well yeah of course. It doesn't make it not scrubby to have an opponent mashing parry in the middle of strings LOL -

Perfect parry is mostly bullshit because it most often seems to happen when I'm hit confirming, in the middle of a combo, or punishing a whiffed move. It's hella scrubby. It's like Sonero has pointed out, it's a skill that doesn't exist outside of this game the same way parrying in 3s isn't in others. I'm convinced the last thing someone is going to do most of the time is block at this point. Still love SF6 and 3s tho lol -

I hope they revamp the whole input reader at some point. There are clips out there of people getting normals coming out on wakeup instead of throw techs, reversal moves, etc because they entered a single button ten frames before they wakeup. This is a good first step. I tried finding a specific example of Honda getting cr.lk instead of whatever special he inputted, but this is pretty painful to see too. -

Big rosters are cool as long as they don't have giant movelists to learn. Tekken 7 got pretty crazy towards the end. -

I can't really get a clear answer within 5 minutes of googling so I will ask here. Do the Master League points reset after a certain amount of time? -

Battlehub reminds me of sf4 ranked. Very inconsistent quality, but perfect for trolling. 😈 -

Master Rank after 40ish hours of ranked grinding. It stopped feeling tedious after reaching Diamond 5. Got it done in 1.5 sessions from that point going forward.... now what lol -

Parries and jumping mostly. I can usually call out the jumps based on the spacing during blockstrings but I'm not consistent enough with it. -

Routine complaint time. I can't condition anyone to block online and I'm starting to think it's kind of a bad option lol -

The ranked grind is starting to become less grindy. Diamond 4 this morning before I left the house. -

I do agree with your sentiment but the throw loops have a different timing than a delay tech most of the time which makes it more difficult to deal with. -

I have a few days off from work so I might just try to get it done. I usually have to stop playing ranked once I get frustrated so hopefully that doesn't happen to often. 😅 -

Wasn't it earlier this year that they said Terrorizer was done? It felt like it wasn't even that long ago that we were mourning the fact that Terrorizer was finished. I think the last time Terrorizer was near me was probably 5 years ago and they were opening for another band. Here's to hoping they come to either New England, upstate NY, or Toronto lol -

I remember saving up to buy a Saturn off someone who didn't want it anymore. It was really an amazing console with lots of great ports and hidden gems. The Saturn and Dreamcast that got me hooked on fighting games! There is a weird old Saturn game that I loved as a kid called Mr. Bones. The live action cutscenes are worth it alone. -

I play on stick but I play sf6 on Series X|S. I think it's kind of underrated to play on. -

This is why people buy $400+ Victrix sticks that are basically just shiny tin cans. Hard to mod. Overpriced. Don't seem very future proof.
