Oh yea I've been meaning to ask how do you level up your character. I've fought people who are over level 70 with some characters but I'm still level 23 with Necalli. Is there some secret or do these kids just play their character religiously?
Nope just playing the character in ranked, casual, survival and character story. I think you get more experience when you beat higher ranked players.

I'll be back 3ing
So are you really trying to argue that ibuki didn't get buffed? And you don't have to quote shazzy I already know he's got his hand up your ass anytime you say something that isn't just random crying.
Are you really trying to tell me the small tweaks she got, that you don't fully understand anyway have miraculously made her good now

They've made her better than she was. In a pretty significant way.

Which makes her more popular online and increases the size of the ibuki community.

Which makes the community find more tech.

Both of which make me need to know the matchup more.

Which leads to me wanting to play the character so I can in fact learn the matchups.

Myles please just shut the fuck up and keep your useless presence on these forums limited to the inane whining that you usually do since you literally never post anything productive.

Tldr go fuck yourself.

It's all so very confusing.
The st.mk buff, the kunai reload and ex kunai reload, the float buff..

These seem small but watch Ibuki matches at a high level. The kunai buff in particular is crazy good for her , she can. Be a lot looser with them now and that changes her considerably.

Her neutral got better and more threatening without getting riskier and people are just learning to play her better in the first place.

So regardless of how good she is or isn't in your eyes why on earth does it matter that rushdown wants to learn her some to aid in fighting her?
.
Even a bad character can require knowledge to fight against (not saying Ibuki is bad I don't think she is at all).. look at Alex, s1 and 2, he's never been a top tier character by any means, but he will wreck you for not understanding him. That's actually what makes a lot of characters bad in the first place, once you learn the ins and outs they go from god tier to horseshit. blanka in sfiv was like this in many respects and my main in IV Decapre.. she was never horseshit she was redonk but playing vs her when you didn't understand her was just beating your head against a wall.

Don't forget the extra hp. Seems insignificant but that 50 hp can be the difference between killing ibuki before she gets to activate and having to hold her mixups.

Forget she got a health buff. I wish I could play Ibuki. Sigh.


I need to get on and practice this Rashid but im in bed with all four of my cats asleep on me at different points and seems criminal to disrupt them. They are never this calm and reasonable. Fuckers.
