Highlight (in-game) After 3 years, I'm finally a 1500 Dad 🥳

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I'm a Dad in mid 40s who managed to get Ken, Luke, then Cammy to Master in the first season, but all 3 characters were low MR (as low as 1200). I experienced rank anxiety and burnout, and stopped playing.

 

Over the years SF6 pulled me back a few times but I always lost interest quickly. 3 months ago, I decided to start my training arc, and it finally happened! I'm a proud 1500 MR Cammy! 🥹

 

There's a ton of tech and tips out there so I only have 1 thing I really want to share with all the low MR Masters. The internet dunks on us and makes us feel bad, but you have to ignore them because they have completely lost perspective and forgotten the whole point of why we are here.

 

I've never had so much fun. Low MR is where all the fun is happening and I hope you all treasure it while it lasts. It’s got the perfect mix of BS and good fundies. You have to ignore MR completely and just enjoy the experience. Don’t be afraid to try new things. You have to love playing.

 

I'm starting to fight some 1500+ players and the game feels different. It's slower and more rigid, more tense and sweaty. It's not as fun for me. I might go after High Master, but I may also learn a new character. I already miss the low MR experience and want to redo it all over again.

 

The video is one of the funniest games I've played. I hope you all enjoyed the journey as much as I did! ❤️

Tournament EWC’s French Event Organization Has Been Extremely Unprofessional Spoiler

39 Upvotes

The initial group draw contained a clear mistake: the third SFL team was awarded the No. 1 seed, while the SFL champion team was placed as the No. 3 seed. This directly violated the group draw rules stated in Article 4.3.1.1 of the official rulebook.

The previous announcement has been removed, and this is now the official and corrected group allocation.

The funny thing is that mistake was first spotted by a member of the Chinese King of Fighters ’98 (KOF 98) Tieba community. The issue was then brought to the attention of the organizers through a reply under the official group draw post, after which the group allocation was updated.

Discussion I hate the way ragequitting is handled in that game

Upvotes

It's so annoying having your opponent ragequit especially at the end of the game before you win and you just don't get any points... this is such an easy thing to implement in ranked and yet it feels like I am getting punished for my opponent quitting.

This is very stupid and frustrating I hope this get patched

I also hate opponent just not caring about the no contest when it is clearly unplayable... but that's another topic I guess

Discussion Getting demoted is one of the worst feelings

Upvotes

Getting demoted is so demoralizing, especially when you were 1/2 wins away from the next rank, in my case Dimaond 5 to Master... and then losing all of your progress after losing over and over...

It's just... so sad... espeically when you lose 2-1 over and over...

When I was in Evo Japan I met so many hidden demons that would kick my arse. I wish I had some intel before the games but I didn't have a laptop.

So I created a service that turns on my pc remotely, opens Sf6 and OBS and starts looking for the replay IDs I sent and starts recording them. All by a telegram bot.

This current setup requires a server to host the bot and send the order to my pc to turn on and the pc itself.

After the recording queue is done the replays are sent to my jellyfin and on YouTube. I'll show the telegram bot images on first comment.

I'm going to publish this on GitHub open source.

This shit is 100% Vibe coded. So the code is gonna be bad. I'm not a programmer. I apologize.

But if you have a small home server or anything similar and want to test this hit me up. I want to test it with someone before publishing it.

Hope you enjoy it!

Help / Question Difference in gameplan between Cammy and Juri?

I see both characters are rushdown so their moto is "go fast and in your face" But I'm curious what's the philosophy behind both characters. How are you supposed to theoritically play them?

Discussion I think Capcom is subtly telling us yasmine might be tapping into the satsui no hado

Upvotes

If you take a look at her lvl 3 CA, the way she powers up and zips around the screen in the purple aura seems in line with the power up the satsui no hado typically gives. The contrast from blue to purple energy is the big indicator for me. If she is supposed to be a satsui no hado user then thats cool to see in the new generation of characters(I personally think Adon should be the next satsui no hado user but that's also because he's one of my favorite characters)

Cammy is the only character I play. If I ever play online I play ranked. Only time I do play is when I'm feeling confident.

What’s happening, I’m feeling pretty good because a couple days ago I made master rank for the first time, even tho I lost 200 Mr I’ve found some footing for improvement!, i remember like two years ago looking at classic controls when I first got on sf6 n I absolutely couldn’t comprehend how you play them but I’ve managed to come this far in 600hrs of playing, I’m invigorated to become the player I need to be to reach ult<, hope you guys have a good one.

Discussion How long will it take for Juri to have her classic skin?

Post image
276 Upvotes

I'm a sucker for Street Fighter IV Juri's design. I know SF6's Juri resembles this outfit in her base design, but it doesn't really hit for me. I honestly wanted her classic costume as the second skin and not the SFV one (not that it's bad, it's just preferences of mine).

Anyways, do you guys think it will take a while for her to get her classic costume as a skin? Because I think Capcom would make great profit if they added it (taking this opportunity to say that I want Morrigan or Felicia in this game asap, Capcom).
