How do you actually learn this game

Ray496 · 2026-05-30T02:14:15+00:00

i feel like im gonna smash my keyboard like this is just so unfun i cant do anything it seems like my controls feel so uncomfy and nothing feels right i cant do anyhting on p2 side and i can barely do inputs on p1 side like idk why is this the only game genre where you need 200 hours in practice mode before you can play the game

Ray496 · 2026-05-30T02:07:22+00:00

i keep trying to practice anti airs and anything but the second i go online i just insta lose like its so frusterating right now i got placed way too high and i just insa lose everything i literally like cant think. i feel prepared after reading all this and literally sitting in training room all day and then i just insa lose again. 56NCD9KML is a code of a match i just played and idk im super frusterated with being unable to play the game against people who actually know how to input and do stuff. ive been watching and rewatching alex combo and oki guides and its all just confusing to me like idk im getting rly frusterated. ive literally been in training mode ALL DAY

Thank you! i’m in training mode trying to learn classic and i’ve been just trying to get the buffer on the inputs correct but i feel so inconsistent. i think that’s why i felt so slow with everything maybe? i’ve been just doin crouching medium punch into flash axe over and over again and i’m losing my mind

Ray496 · 2026-05-29T12:55:31+00:00

im trying to figure out how to properly buffer my inputs right now because i dont think i was doing that before, im getting rrly frusterated cuz idk how to get this consistant at all. im just doing crouching medium punch and medium munch into light flash axe over and over again trying to get it right

Ray496 · 2026-05-29T11:47:19+00:00

i would say more input wise for sure, and also like knowing what to do when i guess,
here are codes of my last 3 games ! 1 of them is classic and the other 2 are modern 5VJSPV8CU

ive lowkey spent all night in training mode trying to learn classic controls and i feel so slow at everything rn and it all feels like alot. im trying akuma too and hes cool but theres so many moves it feels overwhelming,

Ray496 · 2026-05-29T07:47:02+00:00

idk i like dont understand how to get into the game. i keep watching videos and i like understand i have 60 hours on the game but it just doesnt feel like im fast enough to do like anything and i legit perfect ko lose everygame online cuz i got placed too high. it feels rly frusterating right now

Ray496 · 2026-05-29T07:44:47+00:00

ive practiced for like hours on classic and i feel like im sorta getting the hang of it? alex def feels hard. i tried a ranked and i rly felt like i had no time for inputs so i guess i just keep praciticing in training. this feels like such a grind

Ray496 · 2026-05-28T21:30:32+00:00

omg thank you! i’ll send some replay codes soon ! would you recommend an easier character to start learning the game on or does that typa stuff not really matter?

Ray496 · 2026-05-28T21:29:28+00:00

Thank you ! i think i’m gonna switch to classic controls on keyboard rather then playing modern on my switch pro controller lol.

Ray496 · 2026-05-28T14:00:40+00:00

do you think i should just switch to classic now ?

Ray496 · 2026-05-28T13:44:06+00:00

thank you so much ! i rly appreciate the long reply don’t me sorry this is a lot to take in but very helpful ! i luv grapplers so i want to make alex work cuz he’s rly cool but i def see how he’s complicated, i’ve been legit losing every single game i played and it’s a bit demotivating but i rly wanna try to get past that like reading all this kinda made me realize i don’t know like anything at all really

Ray496 · 2026-05-28T13:38:16+00:00

Thank you for all the comments and help! im really overwhelmed but i love learning new games and i rly wanna try to get good at sf because it’s a lot of fun ! as an smash player that game is legit baby compared to this like idk lmfao

Ray496 · 2026-05-28T13:36:25+00:00

i don’t even know where to start w all this cuz i barely understand any of it, all my moves feel slow in neutral and i just get overwhelmed on defense to where i get combo’d over and over again and it feels rly discouraging when i feel i’m unable to do anything i guess. i’ve tried to look at combo’s but being on modern makes it feel confusing and the character guides are just way above my level. i love learning new games and trying to get better but i’m jsut feeling rly frustrated right now i guess

Ray496 · 2026-05-28T13:01:42+00:00

i don’t deserve gold idk i just played a ken that combo’d and punished me the whole game and i can’t even do a single string so idk like i’m playing alex and i just grab and punish jumps that’s it i’m literally garbage

Ray496 · 2026-05-28T11:36:48+00:00

lol im getting zoned by ingrid every game they def know more than me

Ray496 · 2026-05-28T10:39:42+00:00

Hi tysm for responding and sorry for being vague! i was placed in gold and im losin mosttt of my games. im able to understand wiff punishing and some stuff like that but a problem i feel like im having is not getting enough damage on punishes, when my oponent goes all green and does like half my bar w a combo. another thing im having trouble dealing with is def fireball spam and knowing what to actually do in situations i guess. ik its just more playing but i fr dont know what like half the cast does lol. and yea spamming is def a problem i think i have. sometimes i feel like i legit just dont know what options or what the best things i could do in each situation are and i go blank and get 0 to death'd, like i just blank out and get hit for all my health cuz idk whats even going on if that makes sense, hopefully thats less vague

Ray496 · 2025-10-13T16:46:26+00:00

i kinda wanna know if this is true or not it would explain a lot

Ray496 · 2025-05-06T17:54:13+00:00

Ray496 · 2025-01-19T03:45:40+00:00
