Lothire posted:Yay SFV. Normals are definitely his weak point. Often I get zoned out with jabs or quick mediums that are difficult to whiff punish. Standing HK is his best normal imo but won't ever hold up against the real footsie players, or even a mediocre chun or nash. It's a tough spot to be in. Groundpound works sometimes (especially in trollmode), if your opponent is being mindless about it, but this is risky. I haven't really found a good answer for this yet.

cloofish posted:Yeah I was wondering about Ken actually. In Daigo's stream he and the usual suspects among Japanese high level play said that Ken and Ryu are equal. I was just wondering what people are discovering about the character especially since first impressions weren't exactly great. People who were saying Ken was lovely were reeeeally overreacting to his V-Skill nerfs. He doesn't need normal->run->normal that's safe on block to be good. He has good hit confirms, good damage, pretty decent midrange normals, one of the few true fireballs in the game, and he can punish -3 and -4 moves in situations where a lot of characters can't.

I think Sim gets wrecked by Rashid and Bison which is probably enough to keep him out of true top tier. Against everyone else though, especially shotos and grapplers, he's insanely good.

I think Sim would beat him easy on the neutral game, I still stand for my "Rashid is gimmicky as gently caress" prediction.

Don't know who set up the beginner's list, but you really should put Laura into "You will lose a lot but learn things." I swear to god there's no character that teaches you more even if she's bottom of the barrel terrible.

cams posted:curious what you specifically think of this, you're the only other guy on here i know who has been playing laura a ton Caveated with: I'm a lot worse than you at this game probably and as such have seen a fucktonne of Ryus with very little variation. I broadly agree. I'm least scared of the characters you mention as good matchups, although I find Karin a bit more difficult than you do since she can jab out of Mixups and her best poke is Cr. HK which is a direct counter to Laura's best poke of Cr. MK. So non-gimmick Karins will often just outdamage me in the footsy game unless I can get my second level mixup strat working. I feel like Necali is an easier match than Karin. He wants to get in and I just think that Laura's up close game is just so much better than his, since at least some of his moves are shackled to charging. Ken I find a little easier, mainly because I find it easier to punish his mistakes than I do most other characters. R. Mika is interesting, I don't know the exact meaning of defensive "struggle," but she's my most variable match. If I keep her close to centre, which is easily doable because your normals wreck hers, then you destroy her. If she gets to the corner then you're pretty hosed. I think Ryu is a worse match for Laura than Claw. You have no easy way to get in on fireball spam whereas you at least have /some/ options against Claw, specifically playing a weird shoto style fireball/DP game against him. The worst of the bad matchups, (apart from Chun where I agree entirely) I don't see enough to comment on well.

He has good hit confirms, good damage, pretty decent midrange normals, one of the few true fireballs in the game, and he can punish -3 and -4 moves in situations where a lot of characters can't. I think his only two -3 punishes are LK tatsu and LP shoryu but you can link LK tatsu into HP shoryu if you're close enough to get the two hits from the tatsu. His c.MP > b.MP is also iffy if you're not right next to them. I think you have to be very aware of range with him because a lot of his combos require you to be very close. PSA: Don't make the same mistake I did, reading about how his 1 and 2 meter combos are not worth it and how you should always go either meterless or combo into his super. This is technically true damage-wise, but sometimes the only way you can get decent damage out of a punish is by EX combos. Also I blame Guilty Gear for this but I assumed you have some throw invulnerability frames on wakeup in this game. That is apparently not the case(I never played SF4 so I don't know how it was in that game). I think I did notice some throw invuln while in block stun/hit stun, anyone know the details of how it works exactly?

gotcha, i mostly agree. i think that karin has a really hard time actually getting in on laura. once she gets in she's a problem. mika is similar but i think she has better tools for getting in and is scarier when she does. she's way over in defensive struggles cause i have no problem getting in on a mika, but keeping her out is rough. i think i find ryu an easier matchup cause he's pretty much the same character i've been playing for a while. vega is a new man and holy god do am i terrified of his normals. can't get passed them. cams posted:fchamp just handed me my first sf5 double perfect. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_bStwTyHhk

odd finding with necalli. If you do his sweep, and follow it up with any button press as it recovers it moves you forward quite a bit. In the training room if you just mash sweep you can move from one corner to the other in mabye 12sweeps. Not sure if anyone can find a use for this.... but if you do a sweep, and follow it up with a standing MP it extends the range of that MP by alot. the best use I could find was wiff a sweep before their wakeup, and do command throw. it gives you Ken's throw range from 4 almost.

Is there a decent FAQ out yet on the system mechanics and stuff? I've paid basically no attention to any SFV news since largely falling out of fighting games as a hobby and don't intend to buy the game, but if I go over to a friend's to play it I'd like to at least have a general idea of system mechanics to start.

Itazan vs. most people is 10-0, though. I guess your counterpick is to become kazunoku?
