LMAO!

This video is so fucking good and Broski literally says all my thoughts. The only thing we differed on was that I say AKI loses to all shotos but he says she goes even with Ryu/Ken/Luke. He’s just like me fr fr

After playing with AKI for over a month here’s my thoughts. I think AKI is a good character. I think her main issues are that she’s meter hungry and basically auto losses once she’s cornered. I think she losses to every projectile character with Ryu/Ken/Chun-Li probably being her worst match ups followed by Cammy. I think she’s goes even with characters like Lily (still annoying) and Marisa (relatively okay). I don’t think she has any 6-4 MU in her favor. She losses the fireball war and when you use her EX fireball she basically is throwing away meter for the chance of a potential mid screen shimmy or cross up and that cross up will only come after EX slide. She’s got a neat command grand that can open people up if they’re sleeping at the wheel but it’s effectiveness isn’t as fear inducing as say Marisa’s special that cancels into a command grad. Here’s what I think AKI needs to be slightly better. Forewarning I’m absolutely dog shit at fighting games and don’t understand theory crafting so everything I say will probably sound retarded. 1. Expand the hitbox on her level 1 both upward and covering her back side. When dealing with people doing throw bait jumps in or cross ups I’d like to have an answer to it. Right now her level 1 is probably the worst one in the game. I’d also increase its damage. I was teetering on making it fireball invincible but if we need balance then I can take getting hit out of it. If all level 1’s don’t have projectile invincibility then disregard. 2. Extend her hitbox on cr.mp. This is a fairly simple ask. We need a longer poke that can combo into something reliably. Her only longer non command normal poke is her stand fierce and it only links into itself. 3. Make poison status affect force burn out if opponent has no health left. This is a devilish buff and I highly doubt Capcom would do it (pussies) but holy fuck would it be funny as shit lol 4. Increase recovery on her poison tendrils. 5. Increase recovery on her fireball either regular EX or both. 6. Fix medium poison tendril. I don’t know how but it’s a shitty anti air. >i-i-it’s not supposed to be a good anti air Fuck you! Outside of that I really can’t think of anything substantial that she needs since she still has to have some weaknesses.

Finally landed AKI’s corner loop coward crouch DR into sweep into level 3 in a match. Been grinding that stupid combo out for days to try and get the muscle memory down and now I can do it. 1 small step for me 🥰

Welcome my snake fren

I guess we haven't talked about this but I always find these really interesting and really weird. I wonder why AKI ranks higher than Rashid. I'm pretty sure on paper Rashid is a better character and he also has pull from being in the last game. AKI being as high as she is super interesting. I've noticed a pretty decent uptick in AKI mirror matches. You'd think after her release in September hype would have died down. Maybe Capcom landed on a good newcomer design? DJ jumping in rankings makes sense to me. My guess is that people who play DJ were probably already good at the game so their placement matches probably landed them in Diamond 3-5. So not much work to get to Master. Lily being so low is sad but it makes sense. Game plan is the most plain white bread of the cast and she's just okay. JP dropping in Master makes me wonder if people just labbed the MU or got used to the pace. I used to hate JP during the launch month and now it's like whatever to me. Guile being as low as he is when he usually ranked higher up in SFV is also interesting. For some reason people haven't gravitated over to him in this iteration as much.

Moving to AKI was probably the best decision I've made in 6. Watching high level AKI play I know I haven't even scratched the fucking surface with this character. I always feel like there's so much goofy shit you can do. Doesn't even matter if it's optimal or not. I'm finally able to hit her DR cr.HK into super now which was so fucking hard for me because of the crouching part fucking up my super inputs. My AKI is so dry but when I hit those corner loops I feel like I'm big smart. Snake lady gonna carry me to Master.

This shit crazy. Between T8/MK1/SF6 and GBFV:R fighting games are so jam packed with content it’s unreal.

>just chatting shoot this stoner

I was too weak for Lily Chan and ran to another woman. Props to Hibiki for sticking with her though.

SF6 is a good game ☺️

No because honestly I didn’t really care. It’s probably gonna take allot of salt for me to flame someone in 6. I feel like V beat allot of the gamer rage out of me. Probably for the better because when I get mad in fighting games I turn into a racist 4chan user. hahah SFV in my top games. Glad to see Lies of P made it on there. Fantastic game. Don’t make fun of me because I watch Max Dood. He’s my Chinder Dagger and I won’t hear no slander.

>corner gief >he does level 2 >I block it because it’s not fast enough to catch jabs >I’m about to punish the end of the level 2 >your opponent disconnected LMAO!!!!!

Kolins season 3 buffs was legendary. I’ll never not give Capcom props for giving her a gun. But I hate how they realized what they created and knee capped her every year after. Fucking sucks. If anyone wants to body me I’m online. Don’t think I’ve played anyone here except Hawk. I’m starting to think no one actually plays this shit…

Lily isn't hard to figure out and I still run into more Lily's in Plat/Diamond than AKI. And no one used AKI in gold or below. It's not that people know the AKI MU. My fraud wins are proof of this. The issue is that you gotta play this fucking character with surgical precision or you are taking a dirt nap. I could face roll with Lily because even for a low tier she's fucking braindead. AKI requires too much IQ to play well with and I'm fucking retarded. She's fun though. I scrubbed my way up to Diamond 2 so I might be able to scrub my way up higher. I'd really love to play Elphelt in Strive because she's looks so cute and I mained her (albeit like shit) in Xrd. But I didn't dedicate any time to getting good at the fundies for Strive so going back would require me to put on the training wheels. And with GBFV Rising dropping in a few days I wanna get gud at that game. Fucking sucks I didn't put any time into Strive when it dropped. I blame Capcom for this!!!!!

?????

SFV bros we’re so fucking back!!!!!!

Jesus if the Elphelt leaks are real I might actually install Strive just to play the bitch. I finally got to Diamond with AKI and I feel like I know less than when I started sometimes. She's so hard to play consistently. With Lily I could just boot up rank and dick around. But with AKI I gotta grind combos to to get my fingers to be ready to DR extenions after everything. Legit making my bones hurty 😞

I might still cuck out for the Lily fit. God damn I’m in tears knowing how weak I am. Fuuuuuuuck

I think we’re in the ultimate moneys paw reality with this game. We wanted a feature rich fighting game that had the power to steer the ship and correct SFV’s wrongs. We got that. And in turn our curse is that the suites at Capcom will wallet rape us on literally everything that wasn’t base game. It’s actually wild how the pricing on this game works. I whaled out so hard for SFV. The only thing I never bought were the Breast Cancer skins and that was because during that time I wasn’t playing V. I’ve only opened up my wallet once since the game dropped. Feels fucking bad man. Can’t even shill anymore. 😞

Not gonna post it here but there might be a potential ED leak. Saw an image. Don't know if it's real.

Yep AKI is fun. Tier lists have her as the worst character in the game but god damn she’s fun. Almost Diamond and she’s finally starting to feel one with me. Like I don’t have to think when doing her flowchart. I like that muscle memory is kicking in. The hardest shit to do with her is capitalizing off stray poison hits into DR. Watching dudes like Broski just precog all their setups is fucking crazy. The amount of awareness you need to hit that shit is wild. Also her gothic outfit is quite nice.

Happy thanksgiving my people. My food is finally cooked. You know us late niggas gotta be eating at 11:00pm hahahaa Been playing Bloodborne all day. Such a great fall game. Fuck the Watch Dog in the chalice dungeons that mother fucker is goofy.

The age of white women is dead. I’m sorry brotha.
