Merry Christmas to the best fighting game community ever. Thanks for being chill and fun over the years. Y'all are funny, intelligent, and resourceful and may each of you be abundantly blessed moving into 2024! 

[TWINBLADES]

Merry Christmas. I got fucking sick right as the holidays hit. Couldn’t really cook because my appetite was shot. At least my boss gave me 500 dollars for a bonus lol 

 

I’ll try to be on SF6 but my game is gonna be shit lol 

[Shakunetsu]

Thank you Megashock Fam

I don't know why Christ T is even trying, I can definitely see Ken getting both his legs broken in the balance patch, just like season 2 balance patch of SFV

I'm not as up on things because of my BG3 habit. but Cammy, Chun, Guile, Marisa, and Rashid stronger then Ken!? That shit's wild man. Chris T has made a last minute, successful bid, for down player of the year. JP, Luke, and Ken are Top 3. Nothing I've see indicates other wise. I think Dee Jay is number 4, but if people want to argue he's stronger any of those three it's not too wild of a take.

Everybody talking about more functional Denjin charge, my scrub ass just want fun stuff lol

 

Give me back Solar Plexus Strike that can combo as ever did 

 

Make Shoryuken get flashy electric shit while on Denjin 

 

Also miss how cool was SFV target combo 🥲

 

Never happening because would be extra work but would be hype if current desperate Lv3 (electric version) is just Lv3 boosted while on Denjin, then actual desperate Lv3 get different animation... think first left uppercut just the same, then pierce the fucker mid-air with the giant ass punch he did in SFV on Necalli  😆

 

Retarded shit would make me happy even sitting low/mid tier lol

I watched the video before it got posted to Eventhubs. They actually had some interesting ideas. I like the idea they came up with that never crossed my mind. Since Raiko Hadoken has one travel speed, they suggested having it mapped to Fierce Hadoken. I think that's a great idea. Ryu players wouldn't forced to spend their charge on their next Hadoken. They'd still be able to use their Jab and Strong Hadokens for zoning. I agree with you that Denjin Charge should enhance his Shoryuken and his Level 3. Adding that change and allowing Ryu to store multiple charges, I say 3 but even 2 would nice, would give Ryu some extra sauce. The speed of his Raiko Hadoken allows him to do combos he otherwise can't. I also agree on his Fireball total frames needing to be reduced. IIRC it's at 47F now, the same frames it was at in SFV before it got buffed. Put it at 44 or 45 (Like it was in SFV post buff). Ryu should have the best projectile, outside of Guile, in the game.

Ryu will not be good in 6 unless Capcom somehow makes denjin a more viable mechanic and/or nerfs parrying 

[JustBooming]

I think the denjin hadoken should be done by inputting the denjin charge motion again, let him keep all three normal fireballs.

 

Edit: to expand on this, give him three denjin fireballs linked to each punch, jab being super slow.

Yeah i'm not denying that, just saying hope beyond picking one of the 99 suggested routes to make DC useful balance patch will give him new fun stuff too... SFV long list of small buffs made Ryu progressively more fun to play, hope same happen here

Man, I am continually shocked at how bad strategy conversations are overall on twitter.  Legitimately don't know how people can claim this is better than SRK.

 

The neatest thing has been, surprisingly enough, how great twitter is for being nice to people. Also for dispersing tech on accident, twitter is pretty great. Overall though? The social media era has not done as much as it could to really help people get better.

[TWINBLADES]

Someone needs to check if these niggas are getting paid by the Masters Foundation because the downplay is real.

I feel this way about just about everything not just fgc, forums are superior. Or maybe I’m just old.

We're in a pretty exclusive club, @Illwill88, let's give ourselves a well-deserved pat on the back.

 

Blanka is a scrub killer so I didn't expect there to be many Blankas in Master Rank, but I didn't think he'd be third from the bottom either.

That's gotta be one of the sickest official Akuma pieces yet. It's terrifying and I love it. 

 

Kinda wild they're hyping him up for 2024 when Ed is supposed to be around the corner tho lol 

[Shakunetsu]

Happy New Year Guys

 

Hoping alpha and sf3  characters get a spot in the next batch

 

 

[HeavensCloud]

You know Ed is a dud character when even Capcom is skipping him and going right to promoting Akuma lol.

I'm convinced Phenom pulled an Enver Gortash and has relatives of top players hidden away. Their safety is only guaranteed by public Ken downplay.

Having a blast with this game,the drive system is exciting and fun, and the gameplay is super great! Amazing game overall, I'm still silver but having tons of fun even losing.

Yeah I dusted off the arcade stick played a bit today. I had a good time. I've been playing Cammy for some reason as of late. SF6 is a good time. Nice to have a mainline SF game with good netcode. Wish the costumes weren't overpriced as hell but I digress....

[TWINBLADES]

Happy New Year to my Megashock fam. I just got a rage quite and it made me realize that no matter than game Ryu players will always be crusty.
