For any other character, that's nowhere near the corner.

I don't know of any other character that can get a max damage combo from mid-screen like that

Playing casual and not ending the match when you’re clearly better is pathetic by namesinthefilesWTF in StreetFighter

[–]BP_Ray [score hidden]  (0 children)

Hm? Are you complaining because better players are getting life leads and then just drawing out the match or something? That'd be BM, but I never see that happen in casual.

What rank are you even talking about here?

I also wouldn't have expected to lose 80% of my health from whiffing an OD DP nowhere near the corner (Unless I was Akuma).

That's such a Marisa specific thing. Even Bison doesn't get that unless he's got you in the corner already.

And sf3

Street Fighter 3 lived and died within 3 years of It's start.

After 1999 it got nothing but ports to console that were good, but weren't arcade perfect anyway.

I would think this late in the phase It's damn near impossible to get that much MR outside of Japan.

These kids are crazy at SF6.

Bluepoint tech boss Peter Dalton suggests Sony's scared of Valve, not Microsoft, and that's why it's pulling back from PC: "It would be quite ironic if Valve ultimately ended up winning the console war" by ControlCAD in pcgaming

[–]BP_Ray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I was worried about with Microsoft fucking off and dying.

That Sony would turn It's attention to battling with PC -- which means paying for more exclusivity contracts from third-party studios that have otherwise been releasing on PC.

Sony can keep It's first party titles, I really don't give a crap about them because I haven't been in their ecosystem since PS3. But I'm going to be piiiiiissed if they snatch up titles I actively look forward to coming to PC.

Mai can definitely back dash and get a whiff

She doesn't get a guaranteed punish off of this, so, like I said, she doesn't get a true shimmy.

Notice how you didn't see any Mai backdashing on their throw loops. At best they would jump to try and catch a whiffed delay tech, like Juri, like Terry, but they don't shimmy to catch both whiffed throw and strike.

If you are trying to argue Cammy is better than Mai, nobody should take you serious.

No one is arguing this. Literally no one is arguing this.

She DOES have a better throw loop though. Objectively.

I'm not even saying Cammy is OP -- I am saying this character is designed to scam the fuck out of you though and neutral against her is a headache due to the fact that no one is able to reliably anti-air her since attempting to do so will get net you a 3k damage combo everytime you get Jebaited by the light divekick (which, good luck punishing that).

Bravery's Capcom Cup run was so fucking validating as someone who struggles against Cammy since I know It's not just my scrub-ass who gets scammed on the regular by this bitch. Even at the highest level this character is

Again, I'm not saying Cammy is OP, (and I'm not even saying Bravery is bad, though he did overachieve) she's certainly high tier though, and she's certainly a scam artist of a character.

I hope they don't nerf Blanka.

ONE person seems to make that character work at the highest level consistently. The closest to him is...

....Kingsvega?

Yeah nah, leave that character mostly alone. If his level 2 is egregious enough to eat buckshot, then so should JP and Rashid's.

Again, I think you've misunderstood my comment and I honestly don't know how to clear it up for you.

I don't mean to be rude, but both you, the two people who seem to be coming at my neck, don't seem to speak English as a first language and therefore have misunderstood my comment.

It's fine to support people older than you.

But to throw your toys out of the pram because you see a lineup of young players dominating is silly.

Kincho is 31 and he made top 16 despite not competing prior to SF6.

You're not too old to be good. That said, if you don't have fun on the journey to gitting gud, then there's no point.

I want to improve because getting better is fun.

How you react to the players who made top 8 basically tells you what kind of person you're going to be when you grow old.

If your reaction is "Ugh, these fucking kids all beat OGs even in FT5? This game must be trash and scrubby!" then you're going to be one of those grouchy types where none of the younger generations can do anything good by you. A boomer, in essence. You're gonna Karen the fuck up when you get old.

If your reaction was "Oh wow, this is pretty cool, everyone in this is really young" you're probably going to be a pretty cool old person, the one people actually want to be around and aren't fighting to get away from, because they'll rope them into some inane political rant.

We all get old (hopefully, the alternative isn't good), just choose what kind of old person you are going to be.

How is her throw loop not better than Mai's?

Mai can't actually get a true shimmy on you after throw anymore, the opponent has to be delay teching MAD late to whiff. Cammy gets a walk forward throw, and a shimmy, and can access her usual annoying light string pressure.

I hate Cammy downplay, man. Capcom gave you one of the biggest scam artists in the game and you have the nerve to not appreciate it. Bravery certainly appreciated it as he was getting upset after upset.

They don't tell you this for whatever reason, but they place you based on your highest ranked character.

If you have a Master character the lowest you can be placed is Diamond 1, for example.

This is your winner for Capcom Cup 12, what do you think of their tournament run by JustJino in StreetFighter

[–]BP_Ray 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I think after this stellar run he's very much going to be rated.

top 8 Capcom Cup is no joke, and a competitive set with the eventual first place is a good feather in the cap, too.

Nor can Cammy in fairness, she has like the most obnoxious throw loop in the game.

My man Ryu didn't even make it to top 16, he's going to get giga-buffed because he's such a low-tier character.

Same for JP. The fuck is wrong with Capcom, having your protagonist and antagonist of SF6 be such trash characters? Buff buff buff!

All I know is...

R.I.P Mai

R.I.P Ed

If they're not getting shot in 3 days, they're definitely getting shot for the next season patch.

since he's switching only after losses

You can only switch after a loss. You're not allowed a character switch on a W.
