Why are people acting like the other street fighter games were good? Street fighter was always baby's first fighting game you played when you started out and moved to something higher iq.


-ST was a broken busted kusoge with footsies that almost relied solely on jumping at the right time, brainless tickthrows and throwloops, and whiffing normals in anticipation

-the alpha games were completely busted alpha counter and custom combo exhibitions with gamebreaking glitches like the valle CC and crouch cancel infinites that let you juggle someone wit-h jump roundhouse 50 times until they lost

-3s was a mess of balance and option select parry setups. Parry OS so you can confirm that crouching forward into SA2

-4 was glitchy trash with 50% ultra combos that reward you for getting hit and insanely moronic things like invincible backdashes and focus

SFV isn't necessarily this terrible game that besmirched the street fighter name. I'm sorry to say it, but if you didn't "graduate" from street fighter, to something like anime fighters, marvel, tekken, etc YEARS ago- you probably have a low iq. This franchise was always bad and there has never been a good street fighter game, with something on the level of guilty gear XX reload, mvc2, or tekken dark resurrection. I'm sorry but your baby game has always been the fighting game for unskilled losers (other than sponsored pros that just follow the $$$). It's why someone like kazunoko can dominate. It's why dogura, an anime game player, is slaying SF veterans left and right after playing it for merely a couple months. If you think any street fighter game was this great paragon of the fighting genre, your opinions just aren't credible.

who cares, tekken 7

People have short memories.

*insert tekken copypasta here*

>with something on the level of guilty gear XX reload, mvc2, or tekken dark resurrection

This. I never understood why everyone acted like SF was the main fighting game of them all.

Post your steam, PSN, gamertag, or fightcade name right now and get exposed in the game of your choice, faggot. You're a poser.

time to go back to your home:

It was originally Bloody Roar 3 pasta

>ST isn't good
>but these autism combo airdashers are

my bad man

Well, when an entry pretty much defines the entire genre fucking permanently - before SF2 there was no "fighting game genre" as we know it - it's pretty much the king and standard by which it's judged, forever.

If that's difficult to understand, I can only imagine how hard actually playing them must be for you.

Is IQ the new "divine right of kings" or something?

>SF4 is too passive, backdashes are too strong, reversals and fireballs are too good
>SF5 is too braindead, setplay everywhere, backdashes might as well not exist, reversals are too weak
So where's the balance?

The reason SFV gets shit isn't because it's a bad fighter, It because it lacks freedom. They designed the game so that there's very little freedom in how people can approach most the characters. Everyone plays the characters like everyone elses. You fight one Guile you have fought them all. That is something that haven't been a thing for a long time.

Tourneyfags are retarded, more news at 9

Because SFII was the template for pretty much most fighters.

>the alpha games were completely busted alpha counter and custom combo exhibitions with gamebreaking glitches like the valle CC and crouch cancel infinites that let you juggle someone wit-h jump roundhouse 50 times until they lost
What's busted about Alpha Counters? Also you seem to be talking solely about A3 which most people agree is pretty janky.

I understand its historical meaning, which I fail to get is why in modern times where we are presented such a rich a diverse amount of fighters something as basic as SF is still considered the most important one.

post them

In other games

Killer Instinct manages to do both offense and defense well.

>but if you didn't "graduate" from street fighter marvel
You realize that the MvC series is a dumb down version of Street Fighter, right? Single joystick motion with 3P or 3K is just a simpler version of doing supers than double joystick motions. By the time the series got to MvC2, they even got rid of MP and MK to further simplify the controls from 6 attack buttons to a mere 4. Don't pretend like it's some higher plane of fighting vidya. You're not "graduating" by moving onto MvC, and I say this as someone that loves both SF and MvC.

Sfv waifus is one reason to play the game. Much better than SFIV's.

What kind of boring fuck do you have to be to main Ryu/Ken/Akuma? I hope none of you do this.

fuck off 3rd Strike was amazing

what if you like that playstyle
shotos from other games don't seem to trigger you guys irrespective of what they're like, I don't get it

sfv is great game

Not going to deny that SF has always been wildly overrated and unjustly overshadowed a lot of other good fightans, but Dogura busting shit up is nothing new since he plays basically anything, most SF players don't branch out so they're not used to people like Dogura who have a lot more knowledge of fundamentals and most importantly, elasticity.
The main reason why SF players and especially veterans are getting their ass handed to them is that they're pretty much dinosaurs and much like SF they never adapted to the shifting trends of FGs, now that top players from other games have been getting into SF since IV they have to deal with people behaving in a completely different way, and that is a good thing since the meta will get a big shake that way and people are beginning to look at things a bit differently.

Also, as much as I admire Dogura he's kind of a tier whore.

People that are too scared to learn a new character.

hook me up with those nude mods famlioni

the only reason i have the game

Fuck that shotoshit, grapplers for days

She is super cute without the mask.

Ono likes them thicc. I bet fags will flip for thicc sakura.

A flawed as it is in some areas, I think Night Warriors remains one of Capcom's best titles in terms of balance of offense and defense.

who the fuck cares

Soul Calibur 2 and Garou mark of the wolves forever.

SFV broke what makes relatively simple games like Street Fighter worth playing in the first place.

>By the time the series got to MvC2, they even got rid of MP and MK to further simplify the controls from 6 attack buttons to a mere 4
they did that to put in the assist buttons lmao

>Single joystick motion with 3P or 3K is just a simpler version of doing supers than double joystick motions.
Literally nobody who isn't a mouthbreather struggles with double joystick motions. The execution in mvc2 is harder than any SF game. Can you even try jump? What about doing any infinite, or playing spiral or magneto? You fucking moron.

stop with the stupid pasta

tri jump not try jump, typo

point still stands though - execution in marvel is harder than in any sf game

>All that cherry picking
I know it's shit but come on.

>picking a goddamn shoto

Go fuck yourself. We should be able to blacklist these scrub characters in ranked.

are you that BR who's always online in fightcade?

>he can't block
All I need to know about you.

...

>He can't deal with shotos
Laughing my ass off.

>these scrub characters

you mean scrub killers? then again even that only really applies to ken and maybe akuma who will more than likely not be played to the max in your clown circles anyways

ryu in jive is probably the most honest (and currently one of the worst in the game) character ever created

What do people even have to complain about shotos these days? Fireball "spam" and bitching about wakeup DP was all I heard back in the day, but now fireballs are totally useless if you're not Guile and DPs aren't even fully invincible on startup.

I love playing against Akuma, Ken and Ryu. It's guaranteed points.

Because they repeat stupid shit they hear in an attempt to appear like they know what they're talking about. If shotos give them trouble in SFV they should just kill themselves.
