My main JP tech guy has switched to Ken now too lol. I guess that's the new meta. "When you fail at your character, simply switch to Ken". <45>

I'm surprised he got as far as he did with Ryu lmao no other fucker is using him.

The only thing saving some of these characters is Capcom decision to wait until "after Capcom Cup" to balance anything. Doesn't take a scientist to see the gap between Ken, Juri, Luke, JP, Guile, Deejay, vs Lily, Ryu, and Zangief. This might hurt the game more than help it imo.

GL. Capcom essentially left Rashid top tier for almost the entirety of SFV. The same with Guile iirc.

Quick question, why the fuck did SF6 need to hire 'racial consultants' for character designs?

insurance. If anything is deemed to be racially offensive then they can blame the race consultant. It's genius

Seems a bit weird as Rashid is still such a generic character, Lily and Kimberly could have been introduced in SF2 as well in terms of how they follow generic ethnic cliches, the best design work in SF6 is that which ignores that kind of thing IMHO, Marisa, Mannon, JP.

Looks like ProblemX is finally dropping Lily. Being an M. Bison main in SFV, I was surprised that he mained Lily in the first place.

He switched to Blanka during gamer8 and it seemed to be an improvement

i'm confused was the gief showing off or did he need to do the jump back to actually land this lol

After seeing ProblemX drop Lily for Blanka/Marisa, I had to laugh at iDom's tweet a bit:

"My last couple of tournament losses have been to Ken, JP, JP, Guile, Dee Jay, Dee Jay, JP, and Ken."

Lolz. Been saying it for a while, but yea the "game is balanced" narrative is definitely a bill.

Been watching VSFighting today and it's definitely been a lot of that. One guy lost his first match with JP and immediately switched to Ken haha

 

[what-wut]

@MMAisGod you gonna try your hand at cpt qualifiers?

I start watching VSFighting and the first thing I see is JP vs Ken, lol.

I thought about it but nah. I've played like two hours total in the last week lol. Needed a break from how stressful the game is at times. In a couple days I'll get back on the grind though since I'm feeling more refreshed now and start prioritizing matchups.

Then if you kept watching you would have seen 100 more

Anyone see this? What do yall think about the constant coaching and the Super Akouma popoff?
