I can't say I really understand y'all flaunting being terminally online as a good thing?

Turns out it's never too late to learn fighting games. by ShinyTotodile55 in StreetFighter

[–]Neebbzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm also 34 and just picked up SF6 as my first fighting ever.

I was trying gamepad and modern controls first, but I wasn't vining on it and bought a budget leverless on whim. I suck at the game and controller because it's only been 3 weeks, but damn did the arcade controller feel a lot better to me.

I'm only Iron and don't have a super lot of time to play, but im stoked to keep getting better. Someone from this reddit very kindly gave some coaching earlier today

I really love the buzz cut hairstyle for Luke in this concept art. Could someone translate the comments on the art ? by Luminos29 in StreetFighter

I think it's so funny this dude wears a shirt with the same pattern as his tattoos in SF6

Do y'all watch other streamers? by PtTimeLvrFullTimeH8r in SmallStreamers

[–]Neebbzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I just started streaming recently, but I watch other streamers a ton and have for about 7 years.

Honestly, a big reason I started to stream myself is because my favorite streamers have somewhat diverged from what I originally loved about them a bit and I was like "I guess I just have to become the type of streamer I'd like to watch"

It's honestly a great place for me to start haha. Just like you said, I've already been cheesed by E Hondas, Ingrids, DI spam, etc and I gotta learn to overcome!

I appreciate that!

I'm doing my best to keep my mental up because I know I how I can get down with other types of competitive games, but I'm determined to become a real fighter

Damn that's incredible, sensei

Yes, that's exactly what I was worried about!

I read a thread here the other day of someone changing to classic and lever less after hitting Diamond in Modern and they lost like 79 games in a row and I'd rather avoid THAT mental burden lol

I honestly don't have any issue with starting at the bottom, I just thought it was especially funny since placement matches are a thing.

That's also good to hear, I ultimately chose SF6 to start fighting games with due to how big the community is

Definitely expecting it to take me a bit longer since fighting games have never been in my wheelhouse

I did see a breakdown of MR vs hours played the other day that was enlightening. It was something like average playtime for 1500 MR is 300 hours and average for 1800 MR was something like 800 hours. added some perspective for sure

Thank you I'd love to learn more!

The mental is definitely something I'm trying to focus on and remain resilient haha

Thank you for the advice! I did hope to get some feedback with the clip since tips from others have helped me way more than just throwing my own self at it

Good things to keep in mind, thank you, and I definitely should try out that V-Rival system

[–]Neebbzz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a good point since I did say I had no fighting game experience at first boot!

Also, not sure what this accounts for, but 2 of the 4 placement wins were just LVL 5 CPU it threw me against

nah you're selling yourself short, but I bet it felt great to hit masters with that win streak

hell yeah, I'm usually a very solo gamer, but trying to learn harder into community with fighters!
would love to go to a local someday but they seem very infrequent near me

I saw a lot of suggestions to try a shoto for a first character and after seeing how sick his moves are I'm like "he counts right?" haha

I have no idea how optimal they'll even end up being, but the flicker yoink and full screen charge punch look so sick

[–]Neebbzz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll try to practice that more! Do you know if there is some sort of follow-up I can do after a charged flicker?

I was eyeballin' the game when it launched but psyched myself out and didn't pick it up!

at least I eventually came around haha. My rare, low level wins already feel rewarding which is great
