This game is shit. I have tried very hard to enjoy this buggy unbalanced piece of crap but im just about done. If this wasn't called street fighter 5 it would have been dropped by 95 percent of the players.

Imagine someone pulling it off in a tourney lol
Well I messed with it a lot and if you make a hard enough read you can actually get a meaty taunt but it's either a hard read on delay wakeup or sacrifice like 200+ dmg on a v trigger combo so it's pretty unlikely you'll ever wanna use it.

That being said if there was ever a way to guarantee it it's easily the best meaty attack in the game.

I did post something about Birdies booger, I cant remember if it was here or the gief thread.
EDIT: I posted it on my profile: +16 on hit, +15 on block.

@B. Shazzy any tips for Vega in the Guile match up? Vega community is pretty much in agreement that this is his hardest match up, I've read a few desperate tips from some Vega players, but would be interesting to hear about how it feels from the other side of the match up

Hey got a question if you don't mind answering, when vega goes up in the air (not his super) he can guide himself to land on whichever side of his opponent he wants right?

he can guide himself, but hitting someone is tricky enough. Often you are lucky to even connect with an aware opponent, so you are best just aiming to hit them, your opponent probably has more control over what side you land than you do

I'm not the best Vega tho so it's possible I'm not using it that great. I'm trying not to use it too much outside of combos tho, its pretty easy for opponents to stuff it.

The exception to all this is some set-ups in the corner, where you can easily decide which side you land on, so Vega can get a 50/50 with it. And dodge DP's too.

Ah ok thanks, just want to know what my options are against that.

It's all so very confusing.
So... More DLC. And it's Chun and Ryu costumes. No one feels like, maybe, other characters deserve a costume or two? Guile has shit costumes. Vega does too. Akuma's shit all looks the same outside of his vintage. Ken has kinda shitty costumes as well. I know I'm missing characters.. but more Chun huh.. sigh.

everybody should know at this point they're going to sell to the popular characters
 
It's really only useful for setups and combos. Using it in neutral is kinda crazy. But low level vegas will still do it a ton like karins rassenha.
Ah ok, I remember back in sf2. I was a kid, this vega player kicked my ass hard all the time by just going to the wall and suplexing me. Then I learned to just jump back and press jab. Was just curious if his move was counterable easy like before. But can't vega like cancel it or just choose to land away from his opponent?

Hey Rushdown - how does Akuma do against Guile, Fang, Dhalsim, and Rashid? I am considering picking Akuma up as a secondary - was getting hype watching Snakeyes and Tokido at E-League - but don't want to spend the time if he has the same bad matchups as Birdie, as it'll be redundant. Those 4 characters are the only ones I would personally consider switching against as Birdie.

Jump back plus a button(depends on character what the best button is) will beat it pretty much every time.
