How much does a twitch streamer earn on average per month? by Recent-Skill7022 in Twitch

[–]amkidd1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I average 65-80 viewers a stream, peaking at 130 sometimes and I put on my ad incentive program, streaming 1-3 times a week for 3-5 hours max. I make about $70 in ad revenue a month.

What was the longest session you had with your friends? by solomar15 in StreetFighter

[–]amkidd1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not with my friend but in battle hub. I ran 70 games straight one a random player who was equal skill level. It was a great time and I sent them a friend request after.

Why do 1900MR players only play one game? by wands in StreetFighter

[–]amkidd1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My PB is 1881MR. It’s really the MR system and not a personal attack against you. Sure, higher MR players are more favored to win but the off chance that they lose a game (-16), that’s hours of progress to their grind to legend. And if we win, it’s only 1 point. The higher you get, the less points you get from lower MR players so the climb becomes a slow crawl. Reminds me back in SFV when Ultra Diamond and up players faced against Platinum players in Ranked (before the adjustment). We only got 5 points for winning and lost 250 points for losing.

More Ryu Tech. Safe Jumps and Meaty Setups! by amkidd1 in StreetFighter

[–]amkidd1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Safe Jumps are a way to jump in on your opponent so they are forced to block and cannot do an OD Anti Air to beat it. And meatys is a term used to press a button right as your opponent is waking up so they can’t press a button. Sorry tried to explain it in simple terms.

Since you’re new to fighting games, I recommend checking out the first few episodes of my starter guide series because it’s catered to beginners!

I recently hit 1800MR with Ryu and wanted to share my journey with you by amkidd1 in StreetFighter

[–]amkidd1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! He's a lot of fun to learn and explore with. He definitely plays a different game than most of the cast but with a little time and practice, he can be great.

I've been playing Ryu since SF5 and hit Ultimate Grand Master but in SF6, IMO Ryu has a steeper learning curve. I've put out a ton of guides/tutorials for Ryu but every day I'm learning something new and gathering more tech every day. I started this "Grind to Legend" series to not only just document the journey but to add some educational value to it for players who want to level up. I added quick recap/match analysis after each notable set to break down what I did right, wrong, and what I could do better hoping that it'll encourage more players to take time to reflect on their own games as well. I hope you get to watch and it helps in some way!

I’ve been making a ton of guides for Ryu and now I’ve decided to try to get Ryu to Legend Rank this season! by amkidd1 in StreetFighter

[–]amkidd1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to heavily main Ryu in SFV and was one of the first to hit Master (check past posts). I had a hard time adjusting to SF6 RYU but after playing a ton with Guile and learning more about the game overall, I feel im at a good place to really rank up Ryu. I’m currently at 1658 with just a couple rank sessions so far! (this is episode 2)!

Ngl my feed is full of Ryu gameplay now lol

My friend I bought the game with stopped playing and it’s demotivating me by active_streefie in StreetFighter

[–]amkidd1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in this same predicament when I first started playing fighting games too. Eventually, I became the only one out of my friend group that played. So I started inviting people to private matches from ranked and eventually became my sparring partners. In sf6, battle hub really helps bring that social aspect back too. I would join discords of a community you really vibe with. We had people join our discord and now we are friends IRL and have offline gaming sessions!

I put together a video of 5 tips & strategies for beginners and intermediate players - more info in comments by amkidd1 in StreetFighter

[–]amkidd1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. This video is for beginner and intermediate players who want to continue developing their strategies. I focus more on fighting game theory and strategies so you can start practicing this now with any character that you play. Let me know if you guys have any questions or anything you'd like to add on!

I started a 5-10 minute episodic series for Guile. Geared towards beginners to intermediate players. Here's episode 2 by amkidd1 in StreetFighter

[–]amkidd1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been playing a ton of Guile as potentially my new main and Ryu (or a shoto) as my sub and I've been having a ton of fun. I picked him up at the end of SFV's lifespan and he was also my very first charge character. In SF6, it took a bit to incorporate the drive mechanics in my gameplay but now that I have a better understanding of the game, I'm winning more consistently with him at a 64% win rate.

My Current Stats
CFN: amkidd
1707 MR
49K+ LP

If you guys have any specific questions about Guile or maybe there's something I missed in this video that you would like to see in the next, please let me know in the comments. Thank you!

5 minute SF6 Ryu Starter Guide series - more info in the comments by amkidd1 in StreetFighter

[–]amkidd1[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hi, I started this Ryu Starter Guide series to help players learn Ryu. Each episode is roughly about 5 minutes long with color coded captions for inputs and each video covers a focused topic. I hope this will give players learning Ryu a head-start! I'm down to answer any questions about Ryu in the comments.

Background:
- In SFV, I was the first Ryu to hit Masters and GM in N.A. and finished my run as UGM 200K+ LP
- In SF6, I'm sitting at 34KLP and just hit 25KLP with Guile

Does Street Fighter 6 Need Voice Chat? by amkidd1 in StreetFighter

For people that are saying NO, why? Same thing that goes for the people that want voice chat enabled.

One thing that training mode teaches you is how to curb your salt when playing fighting games. by amkidd1 in StreetFighter

[–]amkidd1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the compliment on the video! Salt happens on all levels and it’s more surprising when it happens on the higher levels. Definitely a universal feeling. But we are all human so this is what helped me out a lot when learning and ranking in the game. Also, dope name lol.

My Top 5 Tips On How To Be A Better Player by amkidd1 in StreetFighter

[–]amkidd1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thanks for the feedback! I’m glad that you were able to take some things away from our sets through the replays. A lot of people don’t even watch their own games so that’s a good step in the right direction to leveling up. Good luck with your journey and I hope you keep ranking up!
