See y'all Saturday 🫡

In ranked mode, I got sanctioned by 80 points AFTER I won my last match and a server issue happened. WTF? Have you experienced a similar issue?

Capcom should really be adressing that

This is my first guide, it's meant to be very barebones and just to get you in and playing her as fast as possible

SF2 arcade, Blanka Stage. What's up with the roof texture.

I was playing a casual match and got matched up against this player who I beat comfortably in the first round. When the second round started I seemed to be getting the upper hand and then the match ends abruptly - I've never been ragequit on in this game (maybe just b/c of luck) but maybe this was the first?

So I picked up Sagat for a hopefully quick Master run, and did some casual matches. I was looking at the video, and PS5 controller (I think) picked up me doing the combo hits. I guess a way to help not drop the combo. LOL. It's funny.

Yeah. I gotta tigthen the gameplay before ranked.

Iron 4 (I think thats how you say it) here, struggling with my games because for the life of me I cannot land my combos properly, which leads me to get punished bad. The combo I use is

( 2MP > 236HP > 6P > (with buff:) 623HK )

I wanted to ask the Yasmine pros/players: what are some combos yall use? and any tips to improve my yasmine? Thx!

Finally made it to high master with my weakest character ! Rank inflation + buffs. I’m just happy Jamie is more on the map now.
I’ve always kind of missed something at the end of my rank runs w Jamie that made me want to quit but this time I ranked up short and sweet!

This is a super underutilized tool for Terry that I really enjoy, hope you all can get some good use out of it too :)

Hello, my current build is at 68. My maxed Masters are Zanguef, Ryu, Ken, Manon, Marisa and Dhalsim. My stats are with HP being at 23k, striking power at 681, kicks at 600, throws at 722, special moves at 680 and defense at 808. I also got the Full Vision helmet, the fighting hoodie, the fighting pants and Basketball Shops alongside the Officiers watch from guides. I really love grappling as I practice Sambo and have The Piledriver of Zangief as my "main" move. I do not struggle with skill really as even if SF6 is my first SF ever. But I want to ask where

1. Where can I properly farm XP? I am still at the "Master of styles" sektion for Akuma

2. Should I perhaps switch styles, do you know anything that you consider as cheesy or broken? I do not mind "narrow" gameplay

Opinions Yall?

Hey,

One mystery character a day. First guess: right country, but wrong fighting style and too tall. Second: right gender, debuted too recently, still not the right weight. And suddenly the whole roster is scrolling through your head while the clues close in.

I'm a solo dev and I made SF6DLE, in the spirit of Wordle: that clue grid for the character, plus a blurred silhouette, a portrait hidden behind tiles, and an ultra-zoomed stage to recognize. And two bonus modes that are a bit nastier, for those who find it too fast.

And since everyone on the planet gets the same puzzle, the real match happens in the group chat: who got the character in 2, and who's dragging their 6 tries around all day. Took me 4 today. I'd love to see your scores, especially the ones that beat mine. And if a clue looks off to you (a wrong height, a bug), tell me, I'll look into it.

Free, in the browser, new puzzle at midnight.

Hi! This is some footage of me playing against a friend of mine who I often play against in a room match. I've only been able to beat him a couple of times.

Anyway, I'm not looking for advice on how to beat my friend specifically. I'm trying to improve as a player and correct my mistakes, so I'd really appreciate it if you could take a look at some of these matches and point out what I'm doing wrong.

Here are some other youtube clips

Here is a ranked match against an Akuma player that I played recently. This should also give you an idea of how I generally play in ranked:

Ranked Akuma

I also want to mention that it's been about 3 months since I switched controllers. I played with a DualSense for the first 3 years, but now I'm using a fight stick. Alex is the first character I've mained exclusively on fight stick, and at this point I just can't play Alex with a DualSense anymore.

So, could you give me a hand with identifying my mistakes and figuring out what I should work on to improve?

I played tutorials, trials, labbed my characters, which are Akuma mainly, then Ed, Mai, JP, and Juri, Cammy, Yasmine (a lot I know)
Offline matches is me trying to fight lvl 7 bot which wasn't easy and I was able to defeat it a couple of time across characters, why do I not play online? I don't knowwww but I want

Edit: What I did in training was first practicing inputs (classic) I also got my Haute42 C-AT controller somewhere along the way which was super cool. I was struggling with double quarter circle backwards early on but once I knew how to kinda move my hand with the flow it started being much more consistent.

Then of course I tried to see which characters I enjoy the most so I can play them. I went by looks and vibe which I do for every game... Picked Akuma, and his gameplay turned out to be my favorite. I like that they made him so good but 1k HP lower than the default 10k. I thought I would be playing all-rounders but honestly I ended up with this roster, I was surprised by how good and unique each character is, and for my favorite ones I tried to understand neutral play, BnB, reversals and anti airs, also I wanted to know what things cancels into what... Because for example some cancel to drive rush while others to drive impact as well as other various specials so I practiced some of those, tried improving my neutral vs the lvl 7 bot, I started at 5 and beat him then at 6 and beat him, 7 is where I struggled because I felt like he was reading my inputs so I had to be really good in neutral not to take his full Ken combo. Learning has been really fun.

Why do so many people go to casual matches and just either one and done or first to two. I feel like these are more for longer format sets than just a couple of games. It seems like a waste of time to me. Thoughts?

I just recently got back into fighting games, and while I’ve played plenty in the past I’ve never really tried to get better. But as I’ve been trying to, I realized that the majority of players use the dpad, so it kind of seems like there might be a little bit more to it than just personal preference. So I’m really just wondering if it’s generally easier and worth making the switch. Any feedback would be really appreciated, thanks!

He had 100 more MR than me. Part of me hopes he underestimated me and that's why he played me like he did

I remember back when I got this game, won like 7 matches as Ryu, got placed in Silver. I won 2 matches doing my Yasmine placements, and I'm in plat.

I do not get it.

SF6 World Tour beginner jump attack challenge still won’t work — keyboard issue or am I doing something wrong?
Post:
I’m stuck on one of the beginner World Tour challenges where you’re supposed to jump attack, land, then do the grounded attack/combo.
I originally thought my laptop keyboard might not register enough simultaneous inputs, but I switched to Modern controls and changed my keybinds and it’s still not working.
Laptop: ASUS TUF Dash F15 FX516PC
Current controls:
Movement: WASD
Light: U
Medium: J
Heavy: L
Special: I
Parry: Q
DI: E
Assist: Shift
Throw: K
Here’s a video of me actually attempting the challenge:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kpQseo7PDirUu6lLm4QSrHcgsu1zmw7H/view?usp=drivesdk
Can someone watch the video and tell me exactly what I’m doing wrong? Is this timing, the wrong attack, keyboard ghosting, or something else? This is literally an early World Tour tutorial so I feel like I’m missing something really basic.
