this was helpful, thank you!

another stupid question: is there any trick to make instant ex air tatsu (ken) easier on dpad? i'm having a lot of trouble staying low with them

unlike chun instant air legs there really isnt an instant air version of this you just need to input qcb as you go up from the ground so uf then roll your thumb hcb... if people do this trying to input qcb to uf+kk i think thats way harder than just learning the height timing and jumping then doing qcb+kkk. same for cammy

yeah cammy's is proving to be prohibitively hard. i can get the ex instant 20% of the time but i have for some reason never successfuly done a non-ex one.

i was watching fchamp talk about instant air yoga flame being an absolute necessity for him to master and taking 12 hours of continuous attempts to do. he was trying to say that you can accomplish anything you put your mind to but it made me just train to do the normal dive kick lower because that is actually achievable for a casual player

Capcom has stated that the game's poor performance may be in part due to "cannibalism" of the fighting game genre, meaning too many fighting games were released in too short a time.

haha okay

I think it played a part. All of my friends were excited for street fighter 4s release, none of them cared too much about SF5. The lack of casual content just sealed the deal.

I honestly think even if Capcom hadn't rushed the launch it still would have missed their predictions, just maybe by not as much.

See, I would agree if it weren't for the fact that before Alex my SF friends were constantly saying Boxer would be first, then After Alex he'd totally be next. I wouldn't be surprised to see them hold on to Boxer to build up for all those weirdos who think any character from SF2 is cool.

I'm kind of hoping for Ibuki, but she'll probably play more like 4 Ibuki and not 3 Ibuki so that's kind of a bummer.

So far the release order has been exactly the order of the promo art showing who the DLC characters were, so everything indicates that the next one is Boxer.

that confusion was the result of several pro players reporting that they had hands on with boxer at a games conference prior to alex's announcement for march.

if you lose to a move spammer or an obvious flowchart guy you need to look inside and realize that you are losing because you aren't listening to your opponent. you are trying to play your game when you need to adapt to counter his.

Also sometimes is that you expect too much from them and should just see whats coming for what it is.

If they shoryuken in all block strings, don't think that one even more clever set up will work.

While it's really easy to ridicule this post and I'd love to do it, I'm going to help you out.

You cannot be grabbed during a "combo." A combo is a series of hits that are inescapable, the opponent can do nothing about them. Zangiefs grabs are 5 frames (5/60 second) startup, which means you left a gap of 5 frames or more in something you were doing while you were in range. if you hit him first, it means whatever you did afterward was very far from being a combo. If he was blocking, it'd be called a "block string" and you left a very large gap where he was able to beat your next move with his grab. He would've also been able to beat or trade with it with one of his normal attacks as well.

If you are very new, I will give you some advice against (bad) Zangief players who like to do random grabs when you are attacking them. Attack them once (do a crouching light punch or something) then hold straight up. If they tried to grab you will have neutral jumped it and can come down with a jumping attack and get a big combo. Practice an easy and damaging combo from this. You will run into problems against less bad or decent Zangiefs, who will know how to counter this. This is how you learn!

Also they're not called heroes.

i don't want to take anything away from pokken but given the following, its physical sales being higher is no surprise
1. pc gamers don't buy physical
2. many ps4 gamers don't buy physical
3. the wii u has practically no hdd space so physical games are more attractive
4. pokemon sells
5. sfv is bad
