The guy I was fighting seemed like a noob so I was spamming the jab and kick buttons and forgetting to block but managed to beat him still when I put my mind to it , it was close though don't know how I won the first round !

My mate is a super bronze atm and the games we have are really close so shouldn't be to long before I get up to 1000lp +

Back HP, back MP, crouch MP and light fireball are your anti airs. Your friend could have kept jumping in on you all day and destroyed you if he had realised you didn't know your anti air moves.

punish the sweep with back mk into flame and dont spam slides. if you just punish those sweeps, you would easily beaten him without having to do anything else.

Cheers, would down Hp into flame be as effective ? I seem to be a bit useless at doing back mk into flame , still getting used to the fightstick

vian_siu · 11 Mar 2016 at 14:34

back mk has more range so its more reliable punish for all ranges

Wilko_Dog · 11 Mar 2016 at 14:49

Ah right I see , will have to get some more practice in then

Jimbeam3678 · 11 Mar 2016 at 22:32

Forgive me if I have already asked but whats a decent nightstick to buy to start off with ?

Also how do you use it? As I sit on a bean bag to play so do you balance it ?

Wilko_Dog · 12 Mar 2016 at 01:02

I think it depends on your budget , I have the mad catz chun li fightstick , it's got a fair weight to it so it just rests on your lap and doesn't move when you ply , they do take some getting used to though the actual stick in mine is a square so at first your hitting the corners wondering why your jumping/crouching haha soon get used to it though, I just need to get good at the game now

For PS4 get the venom stick. pretty cheap and good for beginners.
When you get better swap out the joystick and buttons for better ones and you have yourself a good stick!

Excellent stick for the price.
The joystick is actually pretty good, and the buttons are tolerable, especially if you've never had a stick before (the buttons aren't as sensitive as sanwa buttons, meaning you can't trigger them just by barely touching them).
If you do swap out the parts, it's very easy.
Amazingly simple to swap out artwork too which is a nice bonus.

Oh man I played him a few times. I was about 1800LP at the time so was shocked as hell to see a 7500LP Rank 7 Dhalsim as my opponent. Seriously WTF matchmaking.

Needless to say I got rekt.

Thanks ordered one and should be here tomorrow.

Also does anyone want a few games later ?

Getting back into Street Fighter with V. Not played IV in quite a few years so it feels like I'm starting all over again. Not having Blanka doesn't help my case! Used to play against Artheas and e36Adz on IV so if anyone wants some games add me on Steam.
Steam id and in game is MexicanSeafood.

Jimbeam3678 · 12 Mar 2016 at 20:31

Added you

Kreeeee · 13 Mar 2016 at 08:13

You need to give your street fighter in game name rather than stream id.

e36Adz · 13 Mar 2016 at 08:54

My in-game name is AdnanAK, I'm on now for a bit if anyone fancies a few games
