I recommend this regardless becsuse it sounds relaxing Shimmy on out to your local parks and enjoy some nature

but then again I don't think I ever saw anything worthwhile come out of r/SF, at least this thread makes me laugh sometimes and r/Kappa has the occasional gossip buried underneath piles of casual transphobic and overall idiotic nonsense

Being basic or not has nothing to do with 'defining the meta game', it's about whether it defines the meta game, which at the moment it does.

It really doesn't, games don't revolve around doing and countering the shimmy, at least not more than doing basic frametraps and canceling risky, long-ranged moves into V-Trigger. It would be more correct to say we're on the Meaty Meta (and it alliterates to boot), what with jump tech and all, but even that is dumb, it's not what dictates play like SF4's unblockables and vortexes.

What do you keep calling it shimmy? Isn't it called the fade-away?

In basketball, it might be called a stutter step, jab step. Or an up and under if you are in the post. So we could call it one of those things. I pick jab step because it's the most confusing option

Just a reminder that another reason why The Shimmy wasn't as prevalent in SF4 was because offense was a lot more safe and emergent in that you could do more poo poo more safely to maintain pressure instead of hitting medium punch twice and then backing off because you have Literally No Options At All anyway that's my post about dumb jargon bye! Also it's hilarious that an entirely ironic and pejorative term has somehow become a core part of the metagame. Like that actually makes me chuckle a lil bit.

We could call it an anchor punch too, or my personal recommendation,, the Elástico: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_4lVuIBvkA

As long as we're getting hung up on people using dumb words, baiting a throw attempt is not "meta-game," it's part of the game.

Apparently the Capcom rep at WSO said yesterday that the March update will still be out in March, so there's that I guess.
