Everyone does. It's pretty cool. Wait, can you at least pass as a Caucasian male? If so it gets 100x better. If not, you'll like it just be careful of possible next president.
He wouldn't have to worry if he came hear legally like your supposed too.

I want Kronika to step on my face
I should try with other people in the East coast region, hopefully it should be alright.

EDIT: @FL Rushdown going by your name, should be east coast too. Connection is good with him too.
I usually get good connections with people from the east coast too. It's easy for us in the EU to connect to them.

Hold on though, should I still include you when I say "us in the EU"? :DOGE

Idk if you were just getting in on the joke. But just in case, I'm not going down that path on a video game forum.

This thread has everything. Shazzy, Miles Wright, ESPN2, and now politics. I love it.
Best thread on TYM is about SFV. :cool:

And am I the only person who's going to appreciate the fact that the "last 2 minutes" line used a people face with the right emotion. Like come on Michael!

in sf4 her kunai were unlimited and she was actually plus after using them on people's wakeups. Now when you cross people up with them you get jabbed out of your pressure unless you spend bar. Ibuki is fine, but her vortex and neutral are worse in this game than they were in 4. I never said she wasn't good in this game, just worse than she was in 4.
this is no sf4, there practically no kunai vortex in this game. give her time.

Sako's neutral with Ibuki is getting better with ibuki and he is getting more familiarized with her, but her neutral is worse than in sf4 based on a 6 days evaluation by fl rushdown


maybe this chun doesn't know the mu either, its online anyway, who cares right?

BTW anyone tryna get some games in?

Can we just agree she ain't bad but she ain't top tier? Then wait at least a month before we try to discuss every nuance of her tier placement. She's a low health, mixup reset character that uses 3 different resources for her dangerous stuff. The cards aren't in her favor just cause she can do a mixup but that also means it's going to take more time before we pull footage of an opponent getting hit by no setup fullscreen bomb. With all the talk of how simple SFV is. There has been some crazy flip flop about characters.

Ibuki is fun regardless of where she ends up on the tier list. Yeah, she doesn't have the best neutral, but she makes up for it in her set ups and ability to zone although limited in this game due to having to recharge them. I would recommend watching Sako's Ibuki for an idea on how to play her.

ALL I HAVE IS THE GREEN.
Ibuki goes through many tier placements throughout a round.

Start of round with 6 kunai she is mid tier.
Middle of round with 0 kunai she is low tier.
End of round with v-trigger full and 2 kunai she is top tier.

yeah you're right she was worse in neutral when she could cancel into safe specials that also had enough pushback for the opponent to not pressure her.

And you're right her mixups that require her to lose 75% of her hp and require her to still have kunai are better than her meterless vortex that could be used at any point in a round.

Ibuki has been getting worse and worse since super, she's still a cool character though and she's worth playing, but she's still worse than she was.

But please tell me why my calling her "probably mid tier" and "a good character" hurts your feelings so much you're giving me videos of Sakofuckingnoko beating on a 4K chun online.
I could post videos of jwong beating on pros with Dan in sf4 and it wouldn't matter in a discussion about the characters merits.

And if you're not aware you have none left you can "throw" nothing. Leaving you open
and quite a few characters can punish her from half-full screen for trying to replenish without getting a knockdown to set it up. Vegas trigger into super is a particularly nasty one I found myself getting hit by the other day.

Lol, people getting easily offended on internet these days LMAO.

I'm not implying anything at all, SFV is not SF4, everything is different, so i don't see this Ibuki as a SF4 and shouldn't even think about comparing one to another when both have different metas

All i'm saying, instead of making those comparisons this early, just wait and see, let them damn character breathe and stablish what her game is, no one knows shit about Ibuki yet, neither the people playing her, neither the people playing against her.

You friends with Kenny? Im not ducking you i'll play you and get bodied.
Nah I think I matches up with through luck of rank. And I'm too salty to play you. Gonna pack it up for tonight.

It always seems like I need to actually get punished to lnow what my opponent's options are. Even after the punish I'll be like "Duh he's used that move. Anyone would've!" Like I get so absorbed in my plan I'll forget to check theirs.
