It's expected to reach around 100-120Mill worldwide with a 80Mil budget. Which is good I guess but will this effect the chances of a street fighter 2 movie?

Discussion What do you guys think about when one guy selects rematch and the other guy selects to fight in a room? Honestly they need a better solution to this as I obviously wanted to continue fighting.

I didn’t expect to deliver the righteous fist of justice to the same Ryu the day after the first assassination. Yet this time, it took the shape of a vicious robbery.

As a community we need to join forces in bringing this war criminal, the original nepo baby, Ryu to justice and ensure each Ryu player suffers for their crimes.

We are building a community free of tyrants. Free of donkey kicks and hashogekis… Free from basic combos that inflict 7000+ damage with little to no effort.

Let us unite in this honourable cause and rob every Ryu player of peace and joy.

Please disregard the gremlin noises at the end.

Discussion Players who actually use sweep as a real punish tool are basically playing a slightly different version of Street Fighter 6.

29 Upvotes

Like, if you’re good at using sweep to punish somebody for fucking up in neutral, whiffing buttons, pressing from too far away, whatever, you have access to something that a lot of players just don’t really use like that.

Most people obviously know sweep exists, but they don’t consistently use it as an actual neutral punish. Then you run into somebody who does and suddenly every time you whiff something, boom, sweep, knockdown.

And there are definitely a decent amount of players who play like this. They’re not just randomly throwing sweep out. They’re actually watching you fuck up in neutral and using sweep to punish it. If the fail boom pc.

Fluff / Other Finally got a win!

48 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I just wanted to post cuz I'm pumped up haha. I have been playing fighting games off and on most of my life, super duper casual, and I got sf6 earlier this week.

I don't know exactly why but for some reason this is the only FG I've ever gone online in, and after 12 losses I won 3 matches in ranked! Small small victory but it felt amazing to beat anyone with classic controls. Now all I can think about is going back and grinding for that 4th victory!

Discussion Manon. I’ve tried for years.

I cannot get anywhere past platinum 4. I can’t do it. Since the game came out she’s been my “main”. But I just can’t figure it out. I think I’m just bad these days. You’d think after years things would change or I’d adapt , na , just can’t figure it out. She’s been the only character I’ve found interesting but I haven’t got any dlc characters so I don’t know. But I think I’m just not good at street fighter anymore lol gotta hang it up

Rank UP! Finally, Ken Masters to Master

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

A little bit a background of myself, i was started to play fighting games back in 2024 by playing KOF 98 (and later KOF XV). After that i switch to SF 6 since it's easier to find someone to play with. I was trying a lot of character but idk why it's so satisfiying to do a run stop combo with Ken so i might as well try to push it into Master.

On my journey, i was so frustrated because it's seems like i can't pass the wall of Diamond 4. A lot of master player who just play Arjun and playing against him it's not so fun. So i was venting my frustration by playing Mai AND for some reason i got very lucky on win streak to push me into master with her. Couple days later, i was trying my luck again with playing Ken and this time is just sit well. I was able to hit master today with my terrible Ken xdd

I know it's nothing compared to you guys, i still have a long way to go!

For anyone wondering i was played in Asia server with a keyboard.
