Don't be afraid to HMMM on them once or twice every roundhouse and knockdown, he's the grappler archetype without the grabs, just intimidate them and hit them with them balrog drive
all in all, never forget to HMMM

It's hard to get 3 HMMMs in against anyone who knows what they're doing though.
When I first started playing third strike (I don't play fighting games at all pretty much), I tried playing him and managed to get to akuma on normal difficulty, but no further. However, I tried chun li afterwards, and was blown away at by how much easier she was. Her heavy kick literally comes out faster than Q's medium. What the fuck. How do you make a character so shitty?

To be fair, you'd think being able to literally turn invisible at any time and move while crouched, as well as having full air mobility and long ranged attacks would be a decent way of balancing the piss poor damage. Is twelve at least ok in a casual setting?

I'm not good with either of them, they're not my mains in MK and SF, but these two Kung Fu users are based as fuck. if the unlikely crossover happens I want them to team up in the story and spin and dive kick the shit out of Shadaloo goons and Tarkatan scum.

How is Sakura a meme? Sakura has a long standing competitive history where plenty of people played her, plus she's cute. Q was played by virtually nobody, he's a slow, clunky boxer clone, and people only like him because they watched lore videos on youtube.
If you like Q you should be embarrassed. If you like Sakura you should pat yourself on the back.

I'm an entry-level fighting game player. I play SFV and SC6. The main reason I don't play many fighting games is because the characters don't appeal to me, or they look too "floaty" or combo-centric. Samurai Shodown looks great - characters are cool, and it looks like it's more reliant on poking and countering rather than combos. Might be the 3rd fighting game I actually try and play (I bought KOF14, but sold it because the online didn't work all that well and only maybe five of the characters were cool to me).
Isaac Ross

Is this an actual winpose or is this edited?

Because he's cancer. He's probably the most cancerous character in SF history, with the exception of maybe El Fuerte.
Watch this match:

Zachary Turner
Pot is fun but hard, because you live and die by getting the most damage possible out of the one opening you force for yourself by autistically striving for just guard timings. Have fun doing 6K loops and micro walking back and forth to build any meter, but also killing more than half the cast if you land a dust in the corner
Joseph Ramirez
>player using their low tier character smartly with a good balance of offense and defense

Twelve is one of the SF characters I would love to see return since his playstyle is unlike anyone else in the series. He deserves another shot with how unique he is.

I feel horrible for the Dudley player watching that shit. It's a one sided patience test where Twelve gets to go crazy but he barely does damage, so having him jump around and whittle away at you is just maddening.
Jacob Martinez
It's from the end of a super, not a winpose. But yes, it's like that in-game.
Luke Jackson

James Jones
What the fuck is wrong with Yea Forums.
El Fuerte doesn't really have to play neutral, like, at all. At any point he can quesadilla bomb through whatever the fuck is going on or he can run up into a splash grab mix up.
He is virtually incapable of playing conventional footsies and just turns the match into a guessing game. Just thinking about all the good players who got memed out in tournaments against that abomination makes me want to cry.
Evan Perez
>Twelve gets to go crazy but he barely does damage
Yeah, really gets to go insane with all three of those combos he has.
He's playing the second worst character in the game, just because he isn't going "UNGA BUNGA ME NO LIKE NEUTRAL" doesn't mean he's cancer.
Ryder Nguyen
Are his combos still broken and unreliable?
I see so few Eds that i don't even know what is the current state of the character
Eli Roberts

Parker Hernandez
>just because he isn't going "UNGA BUNGA ME NO LIKE NEUTRAL" doesn't mean he's cancer.
That's exactly what he's doing. He threw out maybe three grounded normals in the first round (which is crazy because in 3S normally you whiff normals to build meter), mostly he was just jumping around playing his own game and virtually ignoring the other player. I found it painful to watch, you only respect it because you have no idea what makes Street Fighter good or unique.
Evan Green
> he couldn't punish q-bomb or splash on reaction
If you lost to the bottom 5 character that is el fuerte, you suck at fighters, end of story.
Brody Morgan
Okay.
He's among the most universally hated characters in the series along with Rufus and Ingrid, enjoy never having your shitty character return.

What do you mean punish? Like, punish after blocking? Because that's the trouble you fucking moron, you have to BLOCK, which means you have to GUESS.
If you can consistently react to random q-bomb in neutral then you're better than probably all top players. Pepeday did random q-bombs against the greatest and it worked.

Shut the fuck up. You've never played Third Strike. Stop greentexting me and stuttering with your dumb strawman. Dealing with an opponent that jumps over and over into random options is annoying, because all you can do is play patiently and hope for an AA into okizeme.
I'm not going to reply to you again because you're loudly opinionated and grossly uninformed. Stop complaining about tier lists for games you will never play.
Lincoln Richardson
TvC is the reason I started maining Alex in SFIII and V. I wish he had some of his moves from that game though such as machinegun chop and aerial power bombs, but that'd make him too good.
Easton Martin
FOOLISHNESS
Blake Gutierrez
Wyatt Morris
Here is a secret.
Ryu is in neutral. He can throw a fireball or wait to DP. His opponent can jump if he predicts a fireball, or he can wait if he doesn't.
This is a guessing game. Both players are trying to sniff out each other's rhythms, make each other nervous, make each other frustrated, but basically it's just guessing on an option. It is literally just a game of jump or not, sheer RPS.
Fighting games are full of this shit. Walk forwards or backwards, low throw overhead shimmy, throw the fireball or wait for the jump, go for a whiff punish or go for a counterpoke. If you disagree with this then it's because you really don't know shit, which is to be expected because I'm talking about fighting games on Yea Forums. I don't care if you're uninformed about fighting games, but don't get into arguments and mock people on subjects you know nothing about.

Akatsuki Blitzkampf. It's a fighting game where the main guy is a nazi Ryu who woke up captain america style and everyone's trying to get his shit. This character here it blitztank who's definitely the biggest but there's tons of cool characters like a gun nun and a iaido style dude who just does single hard hits. The game is a bitch to get running last time I played though but I'm sure you can find out more. The main dude is Akatsuki from UNIST if you've played that.
Ethan Williams
Erika's cute, but once you get past their character design and add their personality in Yoshiko is the clear best UN girl.

James Lopez
Once you get a taste of real power with him, playing any other shoto feels like you're gimping yourself
Juan Cruz
Sadly, yep.
Ed requires you to literally stuff opponents for your combos to land. A lot of things that SHOULD work also don't work, like things that should combo / juggle just not functioning.
If they really let Ed be free and allowed his snatcher to do some truly insane shit, he'd be godlike. As he is right now, though, he's pretty bad. Still my favorite character, but it's a struggle sometimes. He does have some pros, though. Good anti-airs, solid pokes, decent damage if your combos DO work, etc.
Vega is much worse off than Ed.
Grayson Rogers
aww yiss
Brody Russell
it's been 3 years and they still didn't fix vega?
Gabriel Turner
Nope. He's still probably the worst character in the game, arguably Ed.
Hurts to live as a Vega main but he's the only character I really enjoy in SFV. I want more characters in the hopes of someone fun enough for me to finally drop him.
Camden Allen
Not really following SFV, what did they do to Vega?

I don't want to know how's the rest of the cast then.

>Terrible V trigger, V Skill is only okay
>new claw mechanics fuck up his normals meaning his range really isn't that great most of the game
>damage output is terrible, needs to rely on meter to do do damage most characters can get with BnB combos
He just can't keep up with the bullshit of top tiers and requires resources more then any other character. Essentially he's considered too much work when you can just play Akuma and unga bunga opponents.
Ian Lee
More oily niggas joining the party aww yiss
Bentley Adams
Cameron Barnes
I don't play fighting games but who's that hard motherfucker from street fighter who fights using only one arm because using both would be unfair to his opponent? That guy

Why? What did the do to his claw?
>Essentially he's considered too much work when you can just play Akuma and unga bunga opponents.
So, he basically has no strong points at all?
Not even his normals are good in SFV?
Isaac Turner
Much better. Vega, Ed, and Kage seem to be among the worst characters, Alex is close behind but a little better.
Jaxson Clark
Oro! Not the guy you've been talking to but he's pretty cool
Isaiah Long
His claw works differently compared to past games. Once knocked off he can't pick up now. To make up for this he can now take his claw on and off, this effects only his punches and makes them have stubbier range but gives some more combo potential.
The problem is that not being able to get the claw back hurts him way too much making a already bad character become worse if he eats a punish while wearing the claw.
Xavier Sanders
Camden Foster
>Once knocked off he can't pick up now.
You can't be serious.
Who greenlit this bullshit?
Aiden Gonzalez
My FUCKING brother. Same character, sentiment, and even artwork I was going to post. I'll post a DBFZ big body that is actually solid Upper-Mid instead even though Maxima is my guy.
You're all pretty damn based.
Leo Long
Very underappreciated, including by Capcom.
Jaxson Sullivan
I imagine they wanted to eliminate the mechanic entirely, I believe Cody doesn't have his knife or anything either. Unlike Cody though Claw was built heavily around the idea that his claw can be knocked off and put back on so it fucks him up a lot.
Joshua Allen
dude, twelve is one of the lowest-tier characters in the entire game. his damage output is pitiful and he's frail as fuck. how much more would he have to be nerfed to not be "cancer" by your standards?
Jackson Walker
I chose her partly because of her music theme with its shoutout to Pachabel's canon in D and partly because her character was the right mix of being a klutz, being cheerful, and her valuing friendship.
Dominic Perry
>I believe Cody doesn't have his knife or anything either.
Really? Not even his stone toss?
What the fuck does he then? Criminal Upper all day long?
Noah Thompson
Bullet is a very, very close second place.
Easton Foster
To answer (not him), knife is locked behind v trigger 1 and he can toss it then. He has an entirely different stone toss in v trigger 2 that's used for oki setups
Julian Thompson
Jaxon Cruz
actually his criminal upper is super only iirc
Josiah Bailey
Criminal Upper is Cody's super in V, he's very different.
Jaxson Cook
I miss Twelve, he's such a cool design and concept. I wish they'd bring him back.
Ayden Lee
He got new stuff, like a projectile based on his Criminal Upper wind, and the invincible attack he had in Final Fight. Knife is V-Trigger 1, V-T2 is Haggar's Pipe, which he can use to hit a rock at people as if it was a bat.
Jacob Watson
What the fuck is that match supposed to imply? Twelve player starts out strong but the Dudley player adapts and pulls through, with a close game.
But I guess if you're posting SFV shit you'd be the expert on cancer so guess I'm out of my depth.
