My SFV mains tend to be mid tier (Mika and Chun).

There's something about low tiers like Q that make them fun to play just for how different they are.

Back in IV, which was the last fighting game I played, I always chose random and I had a lot of fun.

Every single character I play inexplicably gets buffed into the top 5 every single time so who fucking cares, I'm not dropping characters to keep from looking like a tier whore anymore

I only play Abigail

I play whoever feels right

i gravitate towards who i'd fap to the most
so it turned out to be karin in sfv
i also like some exotic characters in terms of gameplay
menat was the closest to that in sfv

tfw too afraid to play footsies because of this shit.

I play fun characters but they always end up bottom tier

It's a huge coincidence that I gravitate to mid-tier characters with hard execution.

is guile a fun character to fight in any game? im leaning towards no

There is nothing wrong with being a tier whore

i think they'll adjust abigail's hurtbox for the move you slowmo'd. that is pretty unacceptable.

or maybe vega just sucks?!?

I prefer the turtle/footsies characters like OP pic. I tried Pokken but the game lacks anti-airs that can be used on reaction. I tried IJ2, still trying to figure out how that game should be played. I haven't quit KI yet, but I sure wish Arbiter had a Guile/Shoto/Jago esque cr HP.

i try to play low tiers but its too much effort and not enough fun upfront so i just pick the easiest the toppest tier female character and call it good

the only time i put in work was practicing morrigan in umvc3 for the broken bullet hell spam

I dunno, man. People insist that Vega isn't that bad, and maybe I just don't understand footsies (I am only super gold), but at this point it just seems completely random whether my pokes will work or not because the hitboxes don't really match up with the animations

Kek why are waifu faggots so trash at their characters?

Nope, I'm playing Juri on SFV.

hey, if you don't know footsies at super gold, then you're scaring my silver self. how am i supposed to climb this impossible wall knowing that even people miles ahead of me don't know what they're doing!

in that webm you seem to be doing c.lp. use sfvsim.com/diff/BLR/020/scripts/619_2LP.html this page to figure out the hitbox for this move.

I want my waifu Juri to step on me

Who do you play?

bison. i want to learn zeku. i'm starting to realize that my fundamentals are so piss poor that i might as well just play ryu until i'm good in that area though.

do you happen to have a good resource for learning the game?

is Bison any good in SFV, I've been playing him since alpha 3

No I pick the characters who are usually the most interesting via appearance or backstory. I've always liked ryu and he's almost never op, cody was mid high in alpha and 4, sakura was high tier in alpha but mid in almost everything else. Akuma is probably the highest tier character I like but even then there's been some instances where he's not the best like the cvs or mvc games.

For other fighters i like ms fortune and she's mid low depending on who shes working with, I like kung lao who varies between trash to god tier depending on the mk game, and dante in the mvc games are impossible to not have as a high tier cause he just has too many options to ever be bad.

So no my luck and taste usually gravitated me towards mid to mig high characters. But that doesn't stop me from using all the roster if I can. Playing only one character in any game is stale and a great way to end up hating that particular fighter.

I play Xiaoyu in Tekken 7 :^)

when are they gonna let me use this as the normal character select music

Yes he's prettty good and has amazing pressure. Both of his vts are usable but his vt1 has way more pressure and mixups. But his vt2 is definitely fun even if it isn't as viable.

I pick the ones my peanus weanus likes

Bison doesn't have to play Neutral, all you do it just hit people until they fuck up and die. Everything is safe.

No, I am just being hyperbolic, I am sure that Bison requires some skill to play. You should play who you want to play and not give a shit about "fundamentals" or what the fuck ever. If you win and have fun, that's whats important and those fundamentals will come later. Bison is supposed to be an evil motherfucker so of course every special move he does is safe and he can throw you from half way across the stage and teleport through your moves and shit.

Aren't you Silver? I got to Super Gold basically just anti airing and 50/50ing people as Ibuki until I switched to Vega. I don't know any Bison specific resources because I don't play him but you should try to look up what your optimal pressure is as Bison when you knock people down and practice it.

This may not be the best advice but go into training mode and set the dumby to be Ryu, then set him to quickrise/backroll and also set him to do his st.LP on wake (his 3 frame normal) then when you knock him down with flames/ball move dash up and time a st.HK just right to crush counter him. You'll have to watch for a quick rise or back roll and change the timing depending on that. Do this in a real match to really fuck with people who try to mash when they wake up.

Once you've done that a bunch in a real match, people will start blocking on wakeup so they don't get crush countered, that's when you knock them down, dash up and then grab them instead. Then, they'll have no idea what the fuck to do. That's when you've got 'em. I hope that helps, you probably already knew that though, sorry if this was a bit rambly and took a while, I actually went into the training mode as Bison and tried it myself.

Speaking of Bison how the fuck do I interrupt him as Chun-Li? I feel like he could just sit back in midrange and maul me over and over with st.MP and df.FP

That's every single character in the game against Bison.

This, except I still play SFIV on occasion.
Fuck ever playing SFV outside of free single player content which could mean never again.

Zangief can outpoke Dhalsim, his LP is really strong.
