Got this random vid in my feed from a Diamond Ed, decided to watch it and I really wasn't impressed with either player. Man, it's gonna be a fucking bloodbath when Akuma comes out lol

[opaque musk]

Anyone know of any cheap hitbox controllers?

Somewhat decent but affordable?

[visual kiln]

I think Sajam just did a video recently where he went over a bunch of those

[opaque musk]

Hmmm…

I was eyeing this one

[visual kiln]

I honestly don't know shit about hitboxes

[opaque musk]

I entered their website and how the fuck do I even order something?

I like this one

Looks slick

[hard gale]

Maybe one day. Our schedules never align. Same with mk

[opaque musk]

Classic controls

[lusty pelican]

You got this

[opaque musk]

I do not

Ugh

It's like

i actually have to use my brain now,.

I feel like

Tekken is no longer the hardest fighter game anymore.

[hard gale]

because offense in tekken is easy

sf classic controls is a bigger commitment

[lusty pelican]

What are you struggling with

Like, specifically

[opaque musk]

Just

Remembering shit

Like I can’t point out specifically what

[lusty pelican]

Like when to use which type of the move

?

It’s honestly less about execution at that point, it’s all the same input

Just different buttons

[opaque musk]

It really is not

[lusty pelican]

As someone who uses classic 100% of the time

It is

[opaque musk]

As someone who used Modern for 200 hours it's not lol

[lusty pelican]

That does not help your case at all

[opaque musk]

I'm aware

we still going hard tho

nowhere to go but up

[visual kiln]

[opaque musk]

I keep accidentally doing the cannon spike here?

it says that i am in neutral after the forward heavy kick? and you can see that i am not inputing a DP

[visual kiln]

you're missing the down input

[opaque musk]

ok

let me try again

[visual kiln]

same frame it

[opaque musk]

that could've been it

i see...

went a little overboard lol but let em try to do it as perfect as i can now

NOPE

i got it

i got it now

watch me

You have to input it as she's hitting ryu or after

i think if you do it earlier she's still moving forward or someshit idk

but i think i got it

damn this is hard

[opaque musk]

mananananqnfweno ewng

drive rushing to continue a combo from mid air kis so hard for me

[lusty pelican]

Use the parry macro

[opaque musk]

i cant

i have to enter parry stance

i need to drive rush cancel the parry

my fingers hurt

i'll just take a break

been trying this one for like an hour already

this is what im trying to hit

[lusty pelican]

You want to hit the od kick earlier

Before you drive rush into S.hp

[opaque musk]

Damn I swear I’m doing it fast as shit

Gotta work on that

I’ll try it out tomorrow

[opaque musk]

I got it friends. I bet ya'll wont figure out what I was doing wrong. It wasn't the timing.

It is the silliest thing.

[opaque musk]

Apparently, Cammy’s OD Hooligan Combination has different properties depending on which 2 buttons you press? I was pressing Light and Medium punch and she was jumping too high but when pressing medium and heavy she leaps a little more forward and lower.

It also seems that Light and Heavy Hooligan can jump over enemies when she's like a single pixel closer from neutral as seen in the end of this clip lol

[lusty pelican]

Anyone want to play

[past carbon]

work : (

tell you what

you go to work for me and i’ll play SF6

[lusty pelican]

I just got back from work

[opaque musk]

[opaque musk]

I'd play rn but I don't feel ready to play online yet.

Sorry.

[opaque musk]

Hit confirming is actually so hard

[opaque musk]

Hard as fuck to react/know exactly what to do off something like a counter hit.

I'm hoping for this week, personally.

[lusty pelican]

I would never

[lusty pelican]

nobody plays this game anymore

[opaque musk]

b ro

i pinged you

like an hour ago]

[lusty pelican]

I saw

I replied

[opaque musk]

oh

I need a lot of practice

wanna play a few?

[visual kiln]

My patience is indominatable.

[lusty pelican]

Yeah I can play for a bit

[lusty pelican]

I have my coach with me

[opaque musk]

That’s how you’ve been beating my ass huh…?

[lusty pelican]

She gives me all the plays

[visual kiln]

Fenrir likes laying inbetween my arms when I'm gaming lol

[opaque musk]

Gotta fix my controller and button settings

[lusty pelican]

My legs are falling asleep

Oops

I was so scared of level 3

[opaque musk]

Not on modern

Nah

Bah*

[lusty pelican]

You can still buffer it pretty easily

[opaque musk]

More practice

So close

[lusty pelican]

Actually tho

[opaque musk]

Mash mash mash

[lusty pelican]

I thought I was dead to chip

[opaque musk]

fail

[lusty pelican]

If I’m in burnout, heavy punch into drive impact is checkmate

[opaque musk]

Buffering does shit for me omfg

What the FUCK dude

[lusty pelican]

Just has to be cleaner inputs

[opaque musk]

I’m doing the lvl 3

[lusty pelican]

Wait what

[opaque musk]

?

What was that damage

[lusty pelican]

That was a different combo

I dropped it

[opaque musk]

ggs

[lusty pelican]

You actually would have won a few of those games if you drive impacted me while I was in burnout

Like I was guaranteed dead a few times there

[opaque musk]

Yeah okay but I’m still getting used to the control scheme. Don’t know if you can tell.

[lusty pelican]

Also Ggs

[opaque musk]

Winning is not what I’m going for here.

[lusty pelican]

I figured

I would be doing the same thing

[opaque musk]

Not that if I actually tried I’d beat you, that sounded a little egotistical.

Yee

[lusty pelican]

Nah ur good

You were reacting to fireballs pretty well

[opaque musk]

I just need better…

Fundamentals?

I don’t know.

[lusty pelican]

No not really, you aren’t lacking in the fundamentals department

[opaque musk]

Just need to grind

[lusty pelican]

Just learning better combos and being able to buffer supers is pretty much all you need

Also use your dp as a anti air

Its air invuln

[opaque musk]

Yeah okay buddy let’s slow it down there xD

[lusty pelican]

You can do it as late as you want

In the simple training settings of the lab there’s anti air practice

[opaque musk]

DP input still getting used to. Trying to resort more to her b. mp or b. hk

[lusty pelican]

That’s what I used

[opaque musk]

Yeah I didn’t really have a problem reacting to airs in modern.

Just the inputs.

Inputs are killing me!

[lusty pelican]

Did you end up getting a hitbox?

[opaque musk]

I did not

I ended up copping this lil beaut tho

[lusty pelican]

Oh sick I’ve seen those before

One of the strive YouTubers I watch did a review on it

[opaque musk]

The fight pad buttons are a little too small for me personally.

The Dpad feels nice tho

[opaque musk]

Maybe I just need to get used to them.

[lusty pelican]

I should start using mine more

[opaque musk]

You play using joystick?

[lusty pelican]

I’ve always used the analog stick for inputs

Use the d-pad for everything else

Like dashing on a stick is no bueno

[opaque musk]

I see…

Input don’t seem to bad tho…

On stick.

[lusty pelican]

I don’t know anyone else who uses stick

[opaque musk]

Do you use stick on MK?

[lusty pelican]

Yeh

[opaque musk]

It’s a little less motion input

Ooh interesting

[lusty pelican]

I wave dash on D-pad

So it’s both

[opaque musk]

I see…

Interesting.

[lusty pelican]

Same with drive rush

Dpad

[opaque musk]

I use a button for drive rushing.

Also you were hitting me while I was doing some oki, I think it’s called? Was getting confused.

[lusty pelican]

Yeah that’s ryu’s newest buff

[opaque musk]

No no

[lusty pelican]

After tatsu right

[opaque musk]

After medium spiral arrow I can either throw or do crouching heavy punch as a meaty

[lusty pelican]

I would hit it on your wakeup

Oh wait I misread

[opaque musk]

After throw, I’m negative so I drive rush into Heavy punch but you were hitting me off it

🤔

[lusty pelican]

Yeah you don’t get a meaty

[opaque musk]

I thought that worked

[lusty pelican]

Off of throw

[opaque musk]

I have to watch the guide again smh

[lusty pelican]

Also you can back tech a throw, I just forgot to do it

[opaque musk]

https://tenor.com/view/you-have-no-idea-gif-27149353

[lusty pelican]

Usually throws don’t give you oki

Unless it’s in the corner

[opaque musk]

Yeah after M. spiral arrow I’m positive 30 something. After the forward dash I’m +4

But after a throw im -14?

I forgot

But I thought (the guide said) that I could drive rush into heavy punch instead.

Maybe I don’t remember right which might be the case.

[lusty pelican]

In the corner you can

[opaque musk]

In the corner after M. Spiral arrow im supposed to throw a light kick, whiff it, and then do d. hp

or throw

Whatever tickles my pickle

[lusty pelican]

Yeah that’s her throw loop

Ryu’s is simaler

[opaque musk]

that gosh dawg hakoge- whatever it’s called is crazy!

[lusty pelican]

Whiff a light punch and then either throw or s.mp

[opaque musk]

How do I counter that

[lusty pelican]

A throw loop?

[opaque musk]

No the thing

The

The Ryu blue thing

Lmao

[lusty pelican]

Oh

[opaque musk]

That’s plus on block if it’s a heavy

[lusty pelican]

It’s plus if it’s light

Only in specific situations though

If you block it on wakeup it’s plus, but you can ex dp if you think I’m going to do it

If I do the heavy you can drive impact or mash

Oh wait cammy does get oki off her throw

[opaque musk]

[lusty pelican]

That’s annoying

[opaque musk]

It is

ong ong ong it is lol

but hey

[lusty pelican]

Only forward throw though

Not back

[opaque musk]

Yeah

Wait

Show me

Is it what I was telling you?

[lusty pelican]

You can drive rush into s.hp after forward throw

And it hits meaty

But not back throw

[opaque musk]

but that’s what I was doing!

gotta be faster?

[lusty pelican]

You were doing crouch heavy punch

Or yeah, probably just need to do it faster

You can press the button immediately after you drive rush btw

[lusty pelican]

Btw her crouch heavy punch is plus on block

[opaque musk]

yeh

[lusty pelican]

That’s really good

[opaque musk]

I do that into d. mp

I just gotta take it slow lol.

Learn one thing at the time.

[lusty pelican]

Yeah there’s no pressure

[lusty pelican]

Bruh

[opaque musk]

you know what?

how many people here that have faced you

have had the chance to perfect you

im proud

this means im improving

and im going to brag about it

the shakira music goes hard tho

[opaque musk]

Street Fighter servers are made of fucking legos. I have a good ping in every game. I have a good internet. I’m connected through Ethernet cable and I can’t a single 3 bar or above match.

[lusty pelican]

You can filter for 4-5 bar only

[opaque musk]

Yeah but then it’ll literally take AGES to find a game. It’s unbearable.

[lusty pelican]

I’m pretty sure you can get a CR.mp after instead of S.lp

Might be easier to hitconfirm

[opaque musk]

Oh yes! The crouching cr.mp

I forget to use it

It’s really good because after a counter hit it can combo into itself

[visual kiln]

doesn't DR sHP loop into itself?

[lusty pelican]

It should keep from dropping and doing spiral arrow on block

[opaque musk]

Yeah we have to work on that

Thinking about after doing cr. mp into DR instead of jabbing I can do a sHP and do the target combo.

And after down heavy I should do cr. Mp

Instead of jabbing

[lusty pelican]

Jabs scale a lot as well

Will lower the damage by a noticeable amount

[opaque musk]

I’m learning

This game is making me work on my anger management and ego.

So that’s also a plus

[lusty pelican]

Fighting games are great for that

No teammates to blame

[opaque musk]

At least when I play the game like I’m doing it right now.

[visual kiln]

@opaque musk https://fxtwitter.com/i/status/1775516319045267715

I hate that guy

[visual kiln]

[opaque musk]

bro im so glad ya'll share the same hate i have for that loser

[visual kiln]

Good one is super hard to deal with, and there's not a lot of them, so it's even harder to practicel ol

[lusty pelican]

They all play like maniacs as well

[opaque musk]

Not gonna lie

plat players have the craziest strats I swear

I also need to stop doing that bacm heavy punch shit

Need to figure out better ways to close the gap.

[lusty pelican]

As Cammy?

[past carbon]

guys i’m thinking E Honda

[lusty pelican]

First step

Stop thinking

[past carbon]

i already don’t

[opaque musk]

Yeah

Maybe cannon strike?

You said it beat DP’s and I did one today against a modern Ken and the DP fucked me.

[lusty pelican]

Dive kick

And dive kick again

[opaque musk]

I try

[lusty pelican]

That’s the secret, no cammy plays neutral

They only dive kick and spin knuckle

[opaque musk]

:)

[opaque musk]

.

[lusty pelican]

It doesn’t beat dps

Its baits dps

[visual kiln]

https://youtu.be/AO0k71-CZHc

[opaque musk]

What’s the difference

In still gonna get hit bro

[lusty pelican]

Against modern sure

But if you do it right you won’t

If it hits you get a combo

If it’s blocked you’re plus

Just don’t be obvious with it

[lusty pelican]

true, i already got my character prepped anyway

[lusty pelican]

Yeah you have probably played WT more than anyone else

I’m only at 65 and alt outfits don’t take long

[visual kiln]

Lvl 100 Baby

Apparently he's gonna require a bit more work to "unlock" tho, but we'll see.

It'll be nice either way, because I have all the quests done so should be easy to find on the map

[lusty pelican]

I found the stupdiest gift item that gives you two levels for about 1000 coins

You can also buy as many as you want

[visual kiln]

You can also get special items which get you +40 from doing a quest too for the DLC characters

I'm already fucking stocked on Magazines and Gum and shit tho

[lusty pelican]

I’ve only done the 40+ for a couple characters

Some of them are kinda annoying

Like JPs, I gave up on that one

Still got the outfit tho

[visual kiln]

yeah it's not necessary, but it's ez for the DLCs

unique dialogue too

you can stil lgive them it at 100 btw

[lusty pelican]

If they make akuma annoying to play against imma start calling people who play him Akoomers

Usually Akuma's gameplan revolves around Demon Flipping when he gets in.

He won't really be able to do that as much since he won't have a Grab on Demon Raid now. So I'm interested to see what I can do with the new teleport grab

No vortex, but still deccent mix with Raid and Raid feints

His medium buttons are stubby, but his heavies are where he gets most of his work done

I won't be able to start offense with an anti-air bHP anymore, but the new command normal should allow the same thing

If I can special cancel into Teleport though, I'm gonna be just as annoying on Akuma as I can be on Ed when I'm actually trying

[past carbon]

their lying to you Dreegan

lab first

[lusty pelican]

Play the game pogy

[past carbon]

it’s been a while

[lusty pelican]

Best time to start is before all the cool stuff

[past carbon]

like 2 months

[lusty pelican]

Get warmed up

[lusty pelican]

Anyone tryn to play?

Or is everyone else just waiting for Akuma

[opaque musk]

I'm honestly playing other titles

[lusty pelican]

Like what

Unless you mean non fgc games

[opaque musk]

Ya

[lusty pelican]

That’s fair

We still gotta play helldivers

Akuma is going to come out with the big Street Fighter update.

[visual kiln]

Gonna be a huge day

[visual kiln]

🚨 Akuma Build + Balance changes possible playable tomorrow in JP. Will be keeping a eye out for any big changes. 🚨

[opaque musk]

I'm personally more excited about the big update than Akuma but Akuma looks so sick and evil

he looks so colorful too and flashy

they really outdid themselves with this Akuma design

[visual kiln]

I hope the updates really buff the characters that need it in interesting ways. Maybe a new move here and there for people like Lily

[past carbon]

put Gief top 1

[lusty pelican]

Hopefully they fix Ed’s Slp

[visual kiln]

Honestly his crappy jab is accetable if his flickers actually hit where they animate

Check out this thread if you're curious

[lusty pelican]

I need to find someone to play against who is better then me at the game

I know I have issues with my gameplay but I can’t figure them out yet

It’s definitely more on the defensive side though

I also think I need to reconsider when the best time to spend super gauge is, I tend to look at it through if it’ll burn them out or not

[opaque musk]

What

No

Don’t touch Cammy!

She’s perfect!

[opaque musk]

Akuma has 9,000 health

[visual kiln]

Yup yup.

[visual kiln]

Gonna be walking that high risk-high reward rope

[visual kiln]

https://youtu.be/H4fBYsl6pf0

I didn't see anyone comment on if Akuma still had fHP

[opaque musk]

Akuma is a glass cannon

[opaque musk]

Wait wait wait they’re removing throw loops

What?

Why?!

70% of cammy’s damage is throw loops

This can’t be real

I’m going back to modern fuck this

[lusty pelican]

Says who?

90% of zangifs damage is throws

[opaque musk]

throw loops

[lusty pelican]

Throw loops are annoying

[past carbon]

true

[opaque musk]

Ehhhhh

I’m gonna cry

[visual kiln]

From the man himself @neat siren

[neat siren]

so they DID 9k health him

glass cannon moment

[visual kiln]

That's probably gonna wash quite a few people off of him tbh. Wasn't that big of a deal in SFV because damage was locked behind V-Trigger shit for the most part. This game's pretty volatile, and missing 10% from the start might be too rough for peeps

[neat siren]

they can always just patch it forward if it becomes an issue but ur right its gonna be a lil tough to get used to

esp without demon flip throw

[visual kiln]

if Ashura Senku is like Ed's Kill Rush in buttons, that's gonna be sweet tho. 2 button TP

Kill Rush has no motion inputs

@visual kiln I've been going on a tear recently

keep in mind I only had JP in master before the akuma trailer

[visual kiln]

very nice man. you figuring out who fits you better?

[lusty pelican]

Marisa and JP have always been the most fun to me

even since day 1

I just never played marisa in ranked after I got her placed in diamond bc I was worried I would lose it

[visual kiln]

No need to worry about stuff like that anymore

[lusty pelican]

No def not

[opaque musk]

Bro I swear you got some nerve so ask me to play with you

[lusty pelican]

@forest fiber congrats on hitting master

[forest fiber]

thanks maaaan

[lusty pelican]

Lmk if you ever want to play sometime

[forest fiber]

i forgot how close i was when i stopped playing. I got it in like 45 min lol

[lusty pelican]

Nice

Did you get placed in diamond during placements?

[forest fiber]

i think it gave me plat 5? my last placement was against diaphone and he bopped me lol

[lusty pelican]

Oh damn

[forest fiber]

i have been super out of fighting games for a while

[lusty pelican]

Getting back into it?

[forest fiber]

honestly would love to just zero time

[lusty pelican]

Ah that’s fair

[forest fiber]

tekken was awesome but i only got to play for about a week

i'll try a little of akuma casually since he looks incredible

[lusty pelican]

They did make him look super cool

Glass cannon type character

[forest fiber]

i love his design in this, raging demon animation goes so hard

i might try to get out to East Coast Throwdown again this year just to chill

[lusty pelican]

I dont think I can get any higher than this

[visual kiln]

Man I am not looking forward to specifically that

Shit's gonna be a problem

[lusty pelican]

I feel like it’ll still take the same amount of hits, it just won’t need the same amount of the resources

[lusty pelican]

I think JP and Marisa are the only characters with consistent ways out of checkmate situations when in burnout

[visual kiln]

As of right now yeah, I think that's right.

Manon getting 5 medals is very scary

[visual kiln]

Hey remember I'm a long-time Akuma main lol. Gief always gives me some sweats lol

[lusty pelican]

You’ll have a worse time with Marisa

She at least gets good oki off of command grab

[visual kiln]

Hopefully I have a worse time with everyone after this patch

[lusty pelican]

Fighting bad characters who have a hard time isn't fun for me.

I mean bad characters can still steamroll

It’s hard to find a character that doesn’t struggle

Makes it more fun to watch too.

I think that if this might be possible, if you're in burnout and you teleport as the opp does a raw Drive Rush. But if they link it with sHP or something you're probably boned
