>probably like 5 gokus

it was never going to make after the normalfags dropped it

>Tekken is now the number 1 fighting game in the world
Feels weird but also good man.

not with a furfag representing the game

>no melee

And thus I shall never watch thee again, evo.

>Worse sequels and games only the publisher wanted to be featured: The Tournament
lol

It is fucking boring to watch. The game has been figured out

Why do people pretend Smash is a fighting game? It’s a party game like Mario Party, that is all.

i'd rather watch high level mario party than most of the games on that list, including smash

It's kinda weird how Street Fighter V is not the highest 2 years in a row now. It must really be a terrible game because Street Fighter never lost to anything before.

>Mario Party has a tier list

The competitive Mario Party scene is heading to EVO bitches, Four-star hype!

they do? I thought all the characters were identical

SFV was actually the top game last year because DBFZ had a record number of people who just didn't show up for their match

Source: My Ass

In the new Mario Party, every character has a unique die with weighted rolls.

It actually happened. Tekken overtook us in entrants. How the fuck did Street Fighter fall this hard? I'm so disappointed in the handling of SFV.

What the other user said, and in mario party 3 if you do ''story mode'' runs each character starts with a different helper for duel maps, some are much better than others (luigi and Yoshi). Meanwhile DK is bottom tier because he's got a bigger hitbox for some minigames (in addition to have a trash helper)

hello falseflag king

The good news is they always give Street Fighter the last slot no matter how poorly it does, so we can all go to sleep earlier.

It's trash.

I think it's a combination of SFV being on it's last years and Tekken 7 being on the growth, despite being actually older than SFV. A huge portion of my country's Tekken scene discord are former Street Fighter players. Nobody likes to play that game anymore. It's not even fun on a casual level, ST, 3S and USF4 are much more fun game to just pick and play. Also all these 3 titles have working netplay. Sometimes SFV's netplay just shits the bed, even if you know you have good ping against the opponent. I recently tried to play some games against my friend in SFV and out of 5 matches we played, only one of them wasn't sperging out with rollbacking and having fuckhuge delay on everything. When we play against in USF4 or Tekken 7, it's always a perfect connection.

I still do think that SFV will surpass Tekken 7 in entry numbers but never has it been this close. I so hope they announce SF6 already, I personally like Street Fighter more as a series.

Because it's all about fundamentals at the end, and everyone can make out of pools, not the case with Tekken, DBFZ and Smash, since they're all solved games, and you know that koreans+JimmyJ will make top 8, saving a few exceptions

Because responding to complaints about the game with git gud or it's not even that bad you are just bad is a tale tell sign your community is going to fail.

Fighting games are niche at a competitive level, so of course a non-fighting game will do better.
Also when you have 8 fighting games and 1 party game, fighting game fans are split between 8 games.

Cry harder, fag.

Why could they not just do Goku like how they did Freeza? Normal can turn golden. Goku can turn kaoiken, then super, then ultra and at last mega.

Isn't it because the company that owns the dragon ball licenze doesn't allow the game to be shown at minor tournaments so the scene just gave up? Why play a game on a professional level if they won't allow you to make any money off of it?

Also doesnt help that most of the characters differences consist on what color are their beam attacks. Vegeta has like 3 famous attacks, they all do the same shit. galick ho, big bang, final flash, they are all the same attack with different colors.

>Oh but I can explode and kill myself too!
Of course you can Vegeta

The interesting characters like Tenshinhan and Piccolo were phased out long ago, and Hit didnt last a single saga before being left behind. Goku is probably the most interesting and most varied character right now with the unique skills. Teleport, planting mines, UI style of fighting, ki telekinesis like he did against Broly, etc.

Not bad for a 4 years old game. Sure any of these years one of those SFV killers will actually kill it lmao

SFV is a bad fg compared to the previous sf,compared to the rest of the genre? Still the best of the generation.

Everytime. I see this argument all the time. I have never seen a reasonable reason why it's not a fighting game.

Yeah ha ha. We were second last year, and third this year but it is all good. Views and entrants keep dropping but it is all good. Decapre is coming any day now.

I mean it isn't like SF4 grew each year, does anyone want a free t-shirt?

Why would they do that?

>I have never seen a reasonable reason
We dislike Melee players.

And it will decrease until SFVI is released. Most games dont pass the 2 years mark. SFV is already 4 years its no surprise the numbers are falling

The first two years of SFV dont count. The game was basically in beta.

Good games keep growing

>Most games dont pass the 2 years mark
SFV only survived on brand, it would have been dead week 1 otherwise. And even with fans that brain dead it still keeps falling. After all that the best shills can muster is well it have improved, cause they know it isn't actually good.

That isn't smash melee, also again that isn't a reason why smash is at a fighting game tournament intended for only fighting games being the number 1 pick at this fighting game tournament.

Popular party game still brings money and viewers. EVO has Catherine too and thats a puzzle game.

It's not a Street Fighter clone

>That isn't smash melee
That is the reason it gets brought up. No one cares that ultimate is doing well, or what genre it is. We just dislike melee players and their constantly need for validation as the greatest thing ever.

I don't get it, why do you like Dragonball if you hate Goku?

Because he likes Dragon Ball, not Dragon Ball Z or Super?

Because the other characters are far more interesting than "I GOTTA GET STRONGER RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH *30 episodes later* AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! OK! Now I'm ready to fight!"

what happened after 2016 that made sfv drop to half as many entrants?

What time does the stream starts? eu time if you may it isn't written on their page at all regards to the broadcasting

2/3 AM depending where you are, UNI pools don't start until 8/9 AM, UNI finals are after that

see

Launch SFV was both marketed towards casuals and was incredibly lackluster.
So all the casuals dropped out after the first year, and pro's called out how simple the game was.

one million gokus killed the game

Is Catherine a fighting game too you stupid faggot?

>NONONONONO YOU'RE WRONG YOU'RE WRONG YOU'RE WRONG
Yeah, smash players are the ones crying.

>and pro's called out how simple the game was
nah, only washed-up faggots did that honestly

Not an argument

Competitive Catherine is legit fun to watch.

Fucking Mario Kart was at Evo, you moron.

>Why do people pretend Smash is a fighting game? It’s a party game like Mario Party, that is all
Why do people pretend Smash isn't a fighting game?
Name one fucking thing Smash and Mario Party have in common aside from being able to play as Mario characters.

Core gameplay was shit from the start, except that one(second or third) beta when you could do fun combos and juggles, no wonder this piece of trash nobody wants to watch or play it anymore

Evo never claimed to be a "fighting game tournament". Shit like Catherine and Mario Kart was in the lineup at one point.

I really wonder how that will go. Doubt SF6 is on the way any time soon, type arcade only just released. But there is also a general sentiment even among fans that this is the twilight years of SFV. Maybe EVO will be one huge update, but last year they already did two characters and that hype barely lasted a few weeks.

Does "being highest" mean anything anymore? I mean DBFZ was on top last year and look what happened to it. Consistency seems to be more important, which SF and Tekken have.

>which SF
SFV doesn't, they had to bring pout free tshirts which I haven't seen done since KoF13. Plus lets not forget the game went from 5,000 to 2,600 entrants.

Attached: DhrRLuWVAAEhC9O.jpg (1200x675, 133K)

It's not really convincing to be honest. Shirts may have been free, but sign-up wasn't. Not sure how many people here know how FGC tourneys work, but you have to pay to enter for each game. I don't see that many people paying extra to enter a game and not show up (i.e. waste money) just for some shirts, unless they're some god-tier designed shirts that everyone was dying to get their hands on them.

>consistency seems more important now that my game isnt on top anymore
how convenient

>lets not forget the game went from 5,000 to 2,600 entrants
imagine trying to spin this as a negative

>not Puyo Tetris
>not even anything to replace Tetris

Losing half your entrants is a positive? Certainly not consistent. I guess it has consistently lost players so we can depend on that.

5000 entrants was unsustainable and unprecedented, it shattered the record for highest entrants for an evo game ever and then some

Also hours watch matters more than peak views, only stick players count as real entrants and 3D games aren't in the running.

>SEED representing Gundam Versus
Based.

>5000 entrants was unsustainable and unprecedented
And the loss of 2,400 is unmatchable and very much a negative. It means half the people who played decided they dislike the game. if it had gone to 4,000 maybe that'd be okay, 5,000 is hard to maintain. But it got split down the middle and hasn't stopped going down since. It also is not a sign of a consistent playerbase

SFV is objectively the worst fighting game of all time, and I look down upon those who still play it.

>SFV only survived on brand
Just like MvCI did right?

The biggest problem with KI is that it was Xbox One exclusive, when the PC version came out the game was already dead.

lethal hits can stay
they need to remove all the meter bullshit, increase damage per hit and lower combo length to bring back the incredible pacing of the first two games.

>fact checking
But, that is the same as the OP?

This is pretty misleading since it doesn't account for the fact that some games were broadcasted longer than others.

imagine a timeline where smash never penetrated into the fighting game community :/

If skullgirls won that stupid charity auction spot over melee, things would have been different.

To be fair sc6 has been doing better at other majors than at EVO. I don't think there's been a major this year where unist had more entrants.

Have a shower.

Smash unironically destroyed the culture of the fgc, I really wish they would've just stayed niche then tried to go for economic growth. The worst part is a large percent of smash players straight up refuse to play other games, and most of them only like smash because of Nintendo and nostalgia

Meleefags don't even watch any of the actual fighting games.

No. It's also not at EVO proper.

Sailor moon has a fighting game?

Imagine being a fgcuck and not playing the good entries in your favorite series because evo and daddy capcom says you can't

You can save one Character from SF and permanently replace it in to the Tekken series.
What character do you choose? For me it Juri-Han she would have great loyal fanbase behind her back also she would not be low tier on Tekken.

Attached: 769a16c21e7e56c6198d022a4cbebf5f.png (1500x1928, 2.12M)

Nah, the meter management elements are fine. I wouldn't say no to lowering combo length, but it's perfectly tolerable where it is now. It's a far cry from bullshit tekken or animu juggles.

Best thing they can do for the pacing is to shorten the animations for RE and CE

It's not dead. Toei is being cunts with locals and bandai doesnt understand communication. we should have had the GT goku trailer long ago

Apparently there's a projectile that literally does more damage if you block it instead of just eating it. Seems like most players do it for fun, which is nice

I love how this guy blew up cause no one else plays like him, and it only works against the stupidest players. Then capcuks hold it up as proving sfv is all about that. It is like how they go mad for Punk's basic ass whiff punishing. You guys just exposed that 99% of matches are ungafests

The hilarious part was that the furfag claimed that Ronda Rousey was a transphobic TERF for refusing to fit a transwoman in the MMA, so he did a fatality of the character she voiced (Sonya Blade). He also claimed that her refusal to fight is "violent transphobia". Think about it.

Netherealm is probably regretting their decisions now.

OFFICIAL EVO GAME

sometimes in tekken you just legitimately have to fake each other out for 10+ seconds, the game makes you scared to be the one that pulls the trigger early and gets counterhit

Honestly I'm just waiting for a new Guilty Gear title.

nobody would give a fuck about smash type games at evo if it was rivals of aether or slap city, what is it about smash and its community specifically that inspires a disconnect

Is it weird that I still want Marvel Infinite at EVO

The game is literally dead right now, but losing EVO really kneecapped it early in it's lifespan
I think it could've had a good run

There's two types of dumb: one where you press buttons like a moron and one where you are incapable of initiating any kind of offense. Sire, it's effective, and it dispels the "SFV is rushdown city" meme, but I furiously hate anyone who plays like this.

Did it deserve to though? Wouldn't that justify all the shit they pulled as we'd lap it up regardless. Someone post the leaked esports video

Though regardless the mood towards the game was set

Probably the fact that smash took up 2 slots at evo when smash has the smallest amount of cross over with any other fighting game. Smash players tend to only play smash where that isn't the case for every other fighting game. Also smash tends to take more time than the average fighter given their max ~8 minute matches.

They should just bring back mahvel, even right now there are more people playing umvc3 than mvci

does anyone have the sf5 gif of the ryu vs cammy match where the ryu used virtually every normal he had to keep the cammy out perfectly
I don't even enjoy SF5 but that sequence was amazing
I know it was on the training mode stage.

wirth Marvel being dead for the time being makes me wonder if it'll change him somehow. I hope he doesn't turn humble or some shit cause that would be boring for his kind of internet/pro-player persona

let me guess; you caught an EVO stream on twitch one day, got inspired to try out a fighting game because you remembered all the good times you had played SF2 on the SNES, went online and then got destroyed. maybe you learned a combo first because that is all you 'saw' in terms of gameplay and not all the intricacies that lead up to combos.

Not consistently in SFV. You are meant to go in and be offensive. That is why those videos are dumb, like he lets Akuma walk him into the corner. In a different style of game maybe that could be a strategy, but in SFV corner pressure is a huge deal. Against a semi-competent player he'd be dead

No, it's just that same rule applies for most of fighthing games: It stops being fun when one guy trains non-stop.

Check & check, m8.

>It stops being fun when one guy trains non-stop.

The game itself is miles better, roster is much more balanced and the movesets are more fleshed out. The population is the same since theres no incentive from namco.

Pretty good. We see great character variety in tournaments, the mechanics are arguably the most solid they've ever been, and it's one of the only fighters where every region of the world seems to be on roughly even footing.

It's a far cry better than SC4 was, that's for sure.

They need a non-fighting game in the roster so they can take a break from the fierce competition.

Game looks like it had a budget of $5,000.

The fact we are still at the desperately trying to prove people like SFV is different though. This many years in a game finds its usebase who don't have anything to prove. But the discussion of if SFV is even functional still goes on. Meanwhile any community for the game slowly falls apart. Instead places like /fgg/ shitpost themselves into the ground, which is why you are here instead.

Yeah I can tell by your post.

>SFV is a bad fg compared to the previous sf,compared to the rest of the genre? Still the best of the generation.
Acceptance of mediocrity. Even shitty graphics, poverty tournament KoF XIV is better. I'd even say it's the 1st time in fg history that a current King of Fighters game is better than the current Street Fighter.

SF has a legacy that is akmot impossible to kill in the esports era. Before all that, a bad mainline fighter is released, it kills the franchise. But now, when livelihoods are on the line, game quality is a secondary concern. You won't find Alex Valle, SnakeEyes, Punk simply playing a game they like. It's gone beyond that.

You said it yourself. the game is bad. What exactly are you praising it and its scene for then? - being beaten down bitches scared to leave their husband?

MK had the biggest marketing campaign, biggest budget, most elite graphics designers, Hollywood backing, biggest prequel hype. Most hyped trailers, coming off the biggest selling fighter of the generation, yet the newest game just released is lower than Samurai Shodown and UNIB.

It was just doing okay before the EVO news.

>GG is basically dead to them.
We've known for ages something new GG related is coming, keeping eyes on the series would be a smart move if they could afford it. Opposed to an older game they publish in Japan.

Rousey's a bitch, but you can fuck right off if you think a man pretending it's a woman fighting an actual biological woman is fair in the slightest. That's just fucking retarded from the get go, and just because Rousey wasn't dumb enough to accept the fight she was branded transphobic by mentally I'll people.

Am i the only one that thinks DBFZ was just supposed to be a quick cash grab? Why else would Arcys give the biggest anime franchise to their "B" team. I feel like Namco was like "Here, make something that looks cool". The World Tour felt like a last minute decision after they saw how much the game sold and how much tournament interest it got.

Yeah, but overall Noob's trailer got like 3 million views in a day while SamSho pushes 100k. MK still has much more reach than weebs yet they aren't signing up.

Normalfags don't go to tournaments and that's 95% of that trailers audience.

Turns out nobody wants to be associated with an obnoxious furry, not even toei or suiesha. And sure as shit not the players.

I'm not that guy nor do I have a stake in your argument but fighting games were effectively dead during SFIV's streak. Of course it lasted 8 years when there was fuck all to play. Nowadays it's almost like we're back in the 90s in that there's a new fighting game to play practically every few months. Capcom can't survive by virtue of having the only game you can play anymore.

>Normalfags
SF managed it, that 5k number wasn't all series tournament players. If you can reach that many people you have a way better chance at converting more into serious players. Yeah none of them are interested, even serious NRS players drop off after a year.

What the fuck is a terf.

>SF managed it, that 5k number wasn't all series tournament players

Wasn't that because of the shirt deal though?

That was only last year, and you still have to go to the event.

trans exclusive radical feminist basically feminist who believe that trans are not the same as natural born women and should not directly compete with them.

It went up 2 huge slots

>but fighting games were effectively dead during SFIV's streak
That's bull, there were a huge amount of new fighters coming out at the time. Pretty much all the big boys were there. We even had a Virtua Fighter (RIP). At worst we didn't have a GG, but that series has really always been niche.

This is especially true of the later years yet SF4 still grew. I don't think SFV is struggling cause SNK Heroines and Punch Planet came out.

Got it in one. I don't even have to respond to the other guy lol. NRS players all want the prestige and respect of being a 'serious fighting game', but want it while remaning scrubs. They're all bubblegum and bullshit, as usual.

This gen of fighting games has been pure poetry.

I don't really mind that much since all Gokus are mechanically different and since I actually play the game I value the actual gameplay instead of whether or not my favorite literally who is included.

Should've beaten him. The fact is the western anime community is hot garbage

About what? You're not winning EVO

Exactly. Guy's a liar or a noob. Not even gonna respond. SFIV was just a better, non-forced game. Period. Reality doesn't lie.

It's Melty Blood except you have to pay $59.99 plus tip for it and there's less characters

How does that make his post not wrong? It isn't unusual for there to be shuffle at the top spots. We've even seen it with the EVO numbers. The idea that MK players only sign up late is still wrong

Who said anything about "winning"? Tekken's great and being #2 for entrants after being out for a couple of years is amazing.

>players all want the prestige and respect of being a 'serious fighting game', but want it while remaning scrubs. They're all bubblegum and bullshit, as usual.
You seriously just described the anime community. They get beat by outsiders like SonicFox and immediately try to hide behind Japan. Then when Japan loses they rage and claim they never liked the game despite shilling it for months.

and a better

What's wrong with you? If it were a quick cash grab it'd be some shitty arena fighter with pretty graphics to distract the normies.

>Mfw I made the correct decision
Why the game being second place at EVO have anything to do with you playing, if you're not competing then?

The gap between Tekken and Xrd is huge. Tekken will probably get 500 while Xrd will get maybe 300. SF will get 600-700 entrants, so MK going from a possible 300 to 700 is a huge leap. I'm basing this on CB2018.

Punch Planet is fun as fuck and unironically deserves a spot at Evo over SFV

You're right, somebody should have beaten him but the police would have caused trouble.

So you are bullshitting

MK has sat in a top 3 spot since January, not even always at 3rd. So comparing it to Xrd numbers is pointless.

FG player types: Non FG player > Casual > Scrub/Online Warrior > Local attendee > Pro.

You're confusing SF scrubs (majority of SFV fanbase) with MK Casuals (majority of theirs). MK Casuals, Scrubs, and OWs hardly ever show up IRL, but talk big online. While, SF scrubs occasionally will.

it's on sale for $15 right now though that doesn't sound so bad?

If MK games were better those casuals and scrubs would think about turning up

I wonder who's behind this post.....

twitter.com/Zer0qIG/status/1121734324548591617

OH NO DBFZ BROS

Are you sure that's the latest version? I thought that one is only on sale for $30

There's a reason why Melty Blood players spend 24/7 on Discord doxxing people and asking for games, while their locals are in bathrooms and McDonalds. Just think about that user.

Notice how i wrote "supposed to". My theory is the suits didn't thought the game would have tournament life, that Arcys wouldn't bother trying to balance the game, etc.

Someone that actually plays fighting games instead of shitting on them 24/7 on a mongolian basket weaving forum?

>the guy who's more relevant in sf5 than he's ever been in any other sf prefers sf5
whoa........

The only game that Tokido legit hate is Persona 4 Arena

Why does he use the month as if we have been through it already

Say April you fat fuck

Found the Melee fag

Everybody call him stinky

Oh you meant the suits only wanted to make a quick buck with the IP and they pulled "fighting game" out of a hat so they decided to go with that? Maybe. I do wonder who the driving force was behind making it good. Toei certainly wouldn't have cared if it was garbage as long as they got that sweet launch money.

>If MK games were better those casuals and scrubs would think about turning up
This isn't true at all. A lot of the MK community dislikes people like the AFGC because of the drama they cause. Why go to a smelly tournament when they can play at home or at a MK BBQ? The MK fanbase grew online during the PS2 era, so probably half of the comp players would rather not travel and stay 100% local. MK also had shit like ESL, Pro League, MLG, WCG, etc. What's the point of showing up to a scene where you have to share a space with smelly weebs who will sperg every time your game is on stage?

naruto fighterz when

>He's saying EU DBFZ players like himself are better than Japanese DBFZ players at Japanese locals
How is an example of the scene being healthy supposed to insult DBFZ players? Did you just see "iq" and think it was an insult?

If Smash isn't a fighting game then neither is Tekken so you'd still be wrong

It works, but why play a fighting game if you have no interest in actually fighting your opponent? You might as well play rhythm shit at that point.

bleach fighterz when

Cope harder

His argument doesn't even hold up considering 3 of the 4 top games are the best in their respective series. Who knows what Samsho brings.

why can't they just name these games with the year they're released like sports games do? such dumb titles.

don't all fighting game players inhabit discord servers?

Yeah ArcSys has a history of making so real terrible fighters ArcSoys try to defend. Valle got top 4 at a major and silently dropped it and hard dodges any opinion on it.
ArcSys knows they are making shit, but also know ArcSoys will shill for free

Melty Blood is something else, because you literally can't get a match unless both give their IP's

No he's bitching about Kid Buu and Bardock like he always does

i would be ok with that if bleach actually had a decent story past aizen
soul society was kino

Having online and online tournaments isn't anything new or special to MK. If anything organising in such a way is a bigger deal for the anime community cause it is the only way they get games. And games like SFV not only have online tournaments as part of the CPT, but also shit like ESL.

But yeah you guys aren't turning up cause of that shitty event yesterday where pros had to win single player matches

>If anything organising in such a way is a bigger deal for the anime community cause it is the only way they get games.
Anime netcode is trash and has small tournaments. NRS games for 200+ entrants for online events.

Wiz is such a stubborn fuck.
If Melee was in, it would be 2nd and Tekken 3rd easily. It would also probably be most viewed stream too. Why the fuck remove a game with such a large active base

What are they going to do with an IP? It's not going to give them your home address.

>because you literally can't get a match unless both give their IP's
one person has to post an IP, which is listed among an exclusive channel of other active hosts. the whole process is faster and more convenient than many AAA fighting games.
you would know this if you actually ever played the game instead of shitposting.

If they made Jump Force 2D and stylized like Guilty Gear like they did DBFZ it would've blown up harder than DBFZ and would've probably been a success, what a fucking waste.

The game's fans are legitimately terrible people who bring down the quality of the event, and the competitors are sometimes even worse. If your game is so great, go enjoy your own fucking tournaments, no one wants you at EVO.

nice walking sim

No wonder why Smashfags have been seething over anything anime in their games as of late.

God I want to see this just to watch Yea Forums oldfags seethe

Rhythm games are better suited for those that love pressing sequences of buttons than fighting games.

SFV has large online events as well. You guys just don't stick around to play your game

>200+ entrants for online events
Source, remember you said events. NRS games struggle to get 200+ at an event after a year never mind an organised online event. I want some late ones as well, prove you guys stick around for these 200+ events years after.

It can get you damnd close.

Which of the 4 fighting games with a big enough playerbase on steam should i get?
MK 11, SF V, Tekken 7 or life support DBFZ

If all you care about is getting quickmatched online then go play some other type of game.

Yes but Toei hates you.

tekken 7

Tekken 7, great game with meh to bad online

SFV is ass, it has crossplay but the netcode is so bad
MK11 is boring, online is amazing though but playerbase is dropping off quicker than most games
DBFZ is hanging in there at best

Whichever one you like the most because liking it is going to carry you the furthest if you want to improve, not MK11 though because that game is on thin ice player base wise.

It's just state/city right? Cities are huge. I guess you can get fucked if your tranny stalker lives in that city but what are the chances? Even then it's not conclusive proof that you live there since you could be on a VPN

c'mon user, do you really think some NRS keyboard warrior shill has the knowledge to back up his claims? On Yea Forums of all places?

I care about a game i can get better at and that is good. Why should i play a dead game? I'm not some fg autist or weeb.

I think Tekken 7 it is. Always loved the series when i was younger,

I get plenty of matches during prime time in DBFZ but I'm Super Saiyan rank. I don't know if it's still possible to rank up for people starting at the bottom. I tried matchmaking at 12am and got nothing. East coast here.

SFV will always get you matches because of the crossplay and because it's a Street Fighter game regardless of rank.

I dunno about MK11

Feels real good
