>Ken just won West Coast Warzone grand finals by spamming dp
Street Fighter V is a bad game. Do people not realize that yet?
I don't even mean it's not worth $60 because there isn't enough content and it's a broken mess or whatever, I mean the gameplay is fundamentally flawed.
Do people still not get this?
>>334675906
you mean the person playing him won by spamming dragon-punch
Is there a different way to play Ken?
There's a guy that wins all of our locals by knowing the frame data on all the moves in the game, thus knowing exactly when he can dp to punish everything he blocks. It's autistic as fuck but I gotta hand it to him, he knows what he's doing.
>>334676039
This
Vod?
>>334676214
Thats really not that autistic, thats like, first level knowledge.
>>334676214
But punishing unsafe shit with only a dp is actually terrible
>>334676039
What makes Street Fighter V's gameplay flawed? It's a lot better than the 50/50 hard knockdown garbage which was Street Fighter 4.
>>334676214
>Anyone who is better than me is autistic
>>334676567
SFV is literally 50/50's the game though
>>334676462
To /v/, anything resembling focus is autism.
>>334675906
Don't you mean he won by his opponent spamming DP?
>>334676567
hello LTG
>>334676667
They both spammed dp.
>>334676527
Eh, if its 3-4 frames its /fine/
Not optimal but fine.
Failing to bait will result you getting hit by DP.
>>334676639
you can call me low tier god all you want you still haven't explained yourself
>>334677124
You'll figure it out for yourself by the time you get out of bronze.
>>334677124
>near someone on offense
>throw them or hit a button
>near someone on defense
>mash jab, try to throw them, reversal (if you have one), or block (bad option)
>>334677390
i'm super gold
give me your fighter id and let's have a set
>>334676639
>50/50s the game
>infiltration always wins
wow he must have a double sided coin xD
>>334677517
blocking is most of the time the best option on wake up though
mashing jabs is asking to get crush countered
the only character who makes the game a 50/50 fuckfest is r mika
>>334677876
>blocking is most of the time the best option on wake up though
looking back at the top 8 at WCW just now all these top players disagree

>>334676567
Why is it that when someone dares to speak ill of V that the first response is always, "OH YEAH, BUT 4 WAS SO TRASH MAN! GOOTECKS SAYS SO!"
Also, the post-knockdown game is painfully overstated. It's honestly not all that different from V but with more characters who had unique ways of opening you up.
>>334675906
>tfw now that people know your mains gimmick he's low tier
Why must birdie suffer so
>>334676527
Ken's normals are rather bad for whiff punishing. If the Ken was DP whiff punishing then that is pretty gud.
>>334678903
Birdie isn't even bad. I'm still surprised there's so little interest in him from competitive players.
Momochi had that little demo and ended with saying that he highly recommends Birdie even if you're only a little interested in him. KBrad says Birdie is godlike but has to play perfect. Still zero players.
>>334676639
No, you're thinking of Pokken.
>>334676740
But Chris T did it mostly to Anti-Air and as combo finishers, he was pretty reserved to doing it on wake-up.
>>334679595
You said it yourself man, he has to play perfect.
Birdie plays by zoning people out and punishing their buttons and jump-ins, but if the other guy gets in, then Birdie is done. I mean he could do a wake-up bullcharge, but it only gains armor after 3 frames so it is pretty fraudulent.
And seriously >>334678469
and everybody else posting old as fuck interviews from the early beta stages, by players who changed their minds about it a long time ago. Kill yourselves, just do it.
>>334680524
Infil never really claimed to have changed his mind though, famalam. He won't dare comment on V. His little home stream with those dudes he mentions that Ultra and the 4 series are "immensely godlike" but when probed about V he just mentions that he's excited that Korea is interested in SF as an esport.
>>334675906
>Rock paper fireuppercut.
Fireuppercut always wins
>>334679748
Doesn't that mean matchups? How is that bad that anyone can defeat anyone?
>>334679748
Is that game even still a thing?
>>334680524
EX bullhorn gains armor on its very first frame
>>334681174
It's better than this mess, so yes.
>B-B-B-B-BUT FUNDAMENTALS, GUYS! CAN'T YOU SEE THE GAME HAS FUNDAMENTALS!?
>>334676039
>Do people not realize that yet?
>Do people still not get this?
"Plz don't like this game bwaaaah."
>>334681614
Pretty sure this is only when on v-trigger.

Fucking idiots, the lot of you
>>334675906
who was using ken? this shit happened the weekend the playoffs started so i said fuck that
>>334683364
that ken player at WNF
>>334683420
who? chris t, julio, brentiscool?
>>334683267
Are you retarded?
>>334683518
Are you? Go look up the fucking match, you gullible fuck.
>>334683491
Chris T. Calling him "That/some Ken" is joke that's been getting some steam on twitter/in chat.
>4chan is stupid enough to call a combo "Winning with DP"
>Necalli lost to a blocked DP
>Winning with a punish
>Equates to winning with DP
Jesus fucking Christ. Stop pretending you played IV. Stop pretending you played Third Strike. Stop pretending you play fighting games.
>>334683598
oh. i avoid those twitch chats like the plague
>>334676574
Baddies always have excuses prepared to rationalize their losses.
>>334675906
>Ken just won West Coast Warzone grand finals by spamming dp
Why is /v/ so retarded? Why are you all so fucking bad you can't actually analyze what's going on in high-level matches? Terrible.
>>334676639
>SFV is literally 50/50's the game though
t. bronze league
>>334683684
come here and make me yourself
>/v/ is completely clueless about SF during the SFIV era but acknowledges their incompetence with occasional embarassment
>SFV comes out
>e-everybody starts even r-right, we finally have a chance to be gud a fighting games haha
>continues to embarass themselves in every consecutive thread
Just stop, there's one genre that should be banned for discussion here and that's fightan.and you know it
>>334684476
This was good bait originally, but as more people actually learned how to play SFV like SFV and not like SF4 it's become stale.
Nice try though.
>4chan thinks Ken comboing into a shoryuken is somehow the same thing as pressing a DP
Jesus fucking Christ.
>>334684476
Accurate
>>334678819
The post knockdown mix up really weren't overstated you cretin
>>334684476
It's nice they removed LP link to big combos but the fact that people still use it to link small combos just made the game slower and drag longer
>>334684476
Surprisingly accurate
>>334680993
No. 50/50 refers to a situation where the defending player must make what consists of a guess as to what the aggressor is going to do. Basically a 50/50 chance of defending successfully.
>>334686002
Yes, they are. Especially considering Ultra. Unblockables were rough but they weren't discovered until AE and they don't happen off just anything. They were aspects of certain characters, namely Cammy. Hitbox tweaks in 2012 toned them down, as was then done in Ultra.
Vortexes could be blocked as well. Akuma's was entirely based on left/right and were just to quick to see. Delayed wakeup axed that in Ultra.
In V, you get knocked down and you hold your opponent's shit because V doesn't have an iota of IV's defensive options. There's also still goofy setplay like Laura's post EX fireball reset, but most of them are tied to a resource.
Overstated. In fact, they aren't so different. 4 was just more diverse and had shit like overheads you could combo off of and Decapre. The most used tool by Daigo's ERyu and Momo's Ken on oki was a delayed cr strong. Delayed so a reversal wouldn't hit them, but the timing would counterhit tech/cr tech.
>>334676039
why the first posts is always so right?

>>334687873
Why didnt you mention Mika's setplay, it's beyond ridiculous what she gets for such little effort on an easy to confirm and safe normal.
>>334688690
Fags better stream it.
>>334688993
>He doesnt know the Robert_mate meme
>>334675906
WHAT YOU GONNA DO WHEN A ROUND BEGINS?
this was actually the grand finals
You can escape the bronze mines if you can DP on command easily.
You can literally just punish everything with a DP, jump over fireballs and you'll leave bronze in no time.
>>334689170
>stepping into an EX DP
what the fuck balrog
>>334676462
If he actually knows hard frame data for every move in the game, then that's really not "first level knowledge."
SFV is shit for way too many fucking reasons. WCW was boring as fuck and had the most sloppy play I have ever seen.
>WNF weekend edition
Mike ross needs to stay the fuck off the mic, same with kbrad, shit was just fucking lame
>>334689090
It's not a meme if only 1 guy knows what the fuck it is
>>334689090
Enlighten me, please. I don't like being outside the meme circle.
>>334682647
it's not so much that, it's just perplexing how people can still eat up this garbage.
SFV is the worst mainstream Street Fighter. SFA1 and SF3: NG are better fighting games.

Holy contrarian. I thought the GF were great even though they both just kept pressing buttons and going in. Mike and Kbrad on the mic is great.
>>334690151
SFV gameplay is godlike. The trappings around the game are mediocre though.
>>334689817
I doubt its hard data.
I mean all you need to know is if something is ~-3-5 and most of the time you can feel that out.

>>334681915
Tbh its a pretty fraudulent game, the character with the best normals in the game aka birdie, which should reward fundamental play the most, never was in a single top 8 yet and is considered lowtier.
The game is about pressure and rushdown memers and 50/50 and not about fundamentals at all.
>>334684432
>everybode on /v/ is shit at fighting games EXCEPT ME OF COURSE!
I love that meme
>>334677703
The reason Infiltration wins consistently is because his playstyle specifically plays around avoiding the 50/50 scenarios.
>>334690979
Also Nash can just move around and avoid doing anything ever because of his retarded dashes.
>>334690547
There's a lot you can learn from frame data. Sure, you could feel all of it out but knowing your data eliminates that process and gives him a leg up. With that knowledge there isn't guessing, so that means you can just focus on recognizing the patterns your opponents do.
>>334689101
SHORYUKEN! SHORYUKEN!
>>334691157
Yes but the kind of person who punishes with raw DPs isnt the kind of person who has intense knowledge of framedata.
>>334691221
Yeah, sorry. It's late and I totally missed the context of your post in the thread.
>>334676214
>Download mobile frame data app
>Don't even own the game
>Flub target combo into Heavy Tatsu constantly with Ken
>Still beat my friends because they think they can press buttons and I'll stay blocking forever
Just check it before a match.
>>334687649
What fighting game does not have this 50/50 thing?
>>334692431
Not many but the complaint is usually about the prevalence of 50/50s and the ease of setting them up.
SFIV was annoying because some characters could setup completely ambiguous setups off one sweep or throw which would then loop back into itself.
This was *somewhat* mitigated with the inclusion of delayed wakeup and invincible backdashes but it's still a thing.
>>334692431
A game where you're not playing against another person.
>>334691208
AND WHAT YOU GONNA DO WHEN THEY BLOCK THAT HIT?

Pros don't play online often enough. Everybody knows that shotos love to mash dp on wakeup.
