How...?
I honestly don't even care about winning or losing but I don't like when my brain goes to pudding just because it's another human on the other side of the screen.

it's not enough to practice the combo itself
you need to also practice introducing the combo into your normal stuff
what a sperg
It's two hours spent looking at Ibuki's feet also, so it's not a total waste.
i only remember random yoshimitsu combo in tekken 3 that i learned as a kid.
Low iq.
Labbing is one thing.
Applying your skills in a fight is another.
Play against people more and you'll be better at applying your knowledge to the situation
Because practicing a combo doesn't mean you can actually play the game.
An expert player will smash your shit without fail even without using any combos if you don't know what you're doing.
Just ignore combos and practice getting through rounds while simply minimizing the damage you take and I guarantee you'll see more improvement than you'll ever see smashing out attacks in training mode.
Off of what move?
Are you being a newfag at SF?
Game sense comes first and combos come after

You also have to practice breaking it in.
learn your characters bread and butter combo. Easy to pull off in almost any situation and hard for the opponent to punish you
Probably because you're playing Shit Fighter V.
Honestly the guys who do endless jabs are the toughest ones to beat.
I love my wife Ibuki
Stop labbing for hours and play against more people.
Pick a character that you want to play. Learn their good pokes, anti airs and a few bread and butters. Then go play online. You're still gonna be a puddinghead and get stomped by most good players but you will actually get better if you play against real people more instead of practicing combos you can't do under pressure.
time would be better spent getting down a simple jab, jab, knockdown special move combo, anti-airs, and mastering meaty timing as thats what you are doing 90% of the time. if someone is whiffing DPs its enough to just do something simple with a CC and/or VT cancel like fierce, VT, fierce, heavy special move, super. you are going to stun and kill them eventually for doing that.
optimum combos come later when you are very used to fighting real people. the game goes very fast and most situations are going to feel like a scramble until you have tons of experience. training dummy will never teach you how to defend and move and hit a moving target, footsies etc. they can't teach you how deal with adrenaline and anxiety, or mentally training someone and then abusing that training with a mix-up. IE doing jab jab, walk up throw for every single blockstring, until they autopilot throw tech to stop you, then you jab, jab, shimmy, whiff punish their throw.
Don't practice combo's. Combo's are nice but they don't mean a thing if you can't hit them. Practice your neutral first. What to do when your opponent blocks, how to hit-confirm, how to open up your opponent, what to do on wake-up, how to get your opponent in the corner, what to do when your opponent is knocked down. You need the fundamentals first.
Many of these are better off learned in battle. It's easier to understand what works in neutral by watching your opponent. See what they do and see how it goes for them. If it works consistently try learning it yourself. If it doesn't, ask yourself why it isn't working for them.
Try to implement it in your gameplay.
Struggle.
Lose.
Get frustrated.
Keep Going.
Keep losing.
Scream and quit.
Go sleep.
Come back.
Smooth as butter.
Victory.

Such is the essence of growth.
What are Ibuki's best options for when the opponent is knocked down?
You can literally get to Gold rank in this game using one move: anti airs.
Back in the SF4 days I taught one of my friends to sweep, throw and anti air with Ryu and he would consistently beat another one of my friends that would constantly be labbing Chun Li.
Fundamentals and mentality are key.
I can't get out of bronze :(
>practices combos instead of neutral first
Classic mistake. Just get comfortable with the game and neutral before worry about big dick combos. Stick to smaller stuff.
During evo I reinstalled tekken and wasnt even able to complete Asuka's simplest 21 211+2 ff21
Until Diamond you're playing all shitters and even then you get lots of them still.
Every time I see anything about SFV I want to try picking it back up. Unfortunately the only characters I care about are Chun, Vega and Dhalsim, and none of them are satisfying to use in V. Neutral doesn't exist so Chun sucks to use, likewise with Dhalsim since you now need to play him as a teleporting rushdown char, and Vega's frame data and hitboxes are completely broken.
It's normal at first.
Just keep playing with people and that'll become normal, so the anxiety will go away
Short term vs long term memory
Also it's easier to hit a dummy than a dummy online.
Play Lili, she's cooler.
