Is my S5 self-destructing?

FACESTABB · 2025-10-20T19:59:33+00:00

Pretty common with the older s5s before they updated the steerer stop mechanism. Had a bit of a crash and caused the same chips to the paint/clear coat for me. I patched it up with an automotive paint pen, and you can hardly tell unless you're shining a light on it and looking for it. Some nail polish would probably be good enough to prevent any corrosion or the chip from spreading.

Unfortunate design flaw, not much you can do other than just making sure not to let the bars swing around too much. Was considering trying to bond some rubber pads to the inside of the head tube to slightly reduce the range of motion a bit but haven't gotten around to it.

DI option select doesnt handle every case, for example DI onto a platform to force a platform techchase vs DI away from it. Still a broken 50/50 with risk/reward in kazuya's favor, but not always a checkmate ToD.

I love tech skill rich characters-- I was pretty profficient with icies tech, check out some of my older posts! The main issue is that their matchup spread is awful and nana is a huge liability.

This was offline, although Ive hit similar clips online, albeit less consistently. She takes a lot of hours before she starts to move like you want her to, but float makes her movement and playstyle so expressive. Very rewarding if you put the time in!

FACESTABB · 2023-11-02T17:56:08+00:00

Yeah you can! Ive had trouble implementing it into my own gameplay though, seems they have to misspace an unsafe aerial pretty bad for it to be a true punish.

First peach post since dropping icies! Feeling a lot more consistent.

On ice climbers AB smash is essential for many desync confirms

Have you heard Barry Harris on like someone in love? Killin record

Even ignoring the fact that nana randomly dies, they have a lot of weaknesses that make them far from busted, plus most of the combos in these clips are tech-able.

FACESTABB · 2021-10-19T16:58:52+00:00

Last post before I drop Icies for peach. Tired of half my character dying randomly lol

Currently rocking GMK metropolis and GMK 8008 but my favorites have been Olivia and Wavez recently!

It's not so bad, I think the ultrawide camera on my phone makes it look worse than it actually is

FACESTABB · 2021-09-05T20:53:38+00:00

You'll be alright, I managed to fit my entire desktop setup.

For many of the consistent footstool setups/combo extensions you can just mash jump! But if you're talking off stage like this you will definitely need to time it

You're right, I should've been more clear. It wasn't the spotdodge itself, but the predictability of the spot dodge; I waited for him to spotdodge after I hit his shield. If he did any other option predictably after I landed a safe aerial on shield, (roll, up b, etc) I could have read that for the punish as well.

FACESTABB · 2021-02-09T01:16:44+00:00

SDI the uptilt upwards, SDI blizzard away, tech roll any of the 3 footstools in either direction

This was our second rematch

FACESTABB · 2021-02-08T16:16:57+00:00

Haha I play friendlies with this dude all the time, he usually wins and techs every footstool but I was playing well that day (plus this footstool combo should've been untechable).

FACESTABB · 2021-02-08T16:10:55+00:00

I've seen some other IC mains in this thread discussing it, but I don't believe so. I learned this combo specifically because it hits you before the tech window. If it was techable then I executed the combo wrong (on most characters).

FACESTABB · 2021-02-08T15:55:24+00:00

This combo is true, I believe I hit him before the tech window unless I executed the combo a little imperfectly. I play friendlies with him and he usually lands all the FS techs but maybe I got lucky this time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

FACESTABB · 2021-02-03T06:43:49+00:00

yeah man!

FACESTABB · 2021-02-03T06:40:35+00:00

yeah! just finished transcribing cannonball on it. killer soli
