fighting games are dead
In memoriamhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DO38IFrs9wU
>>737883927Should have sent Tokido, he knows how to humiliate uppity zoomers.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HT51m19_ZrI
>>737883927Thank God. Revive the brawler genre
>>737883927This man is dead on the inside and half dead outside.
>>737883927you are the equivalent as fat balding men getting upset at their soccer team losing
>>737883927how did the game went?
>>737883927https://youtube.com/shorts/6FDG_v7-Zsc?si=oj7qSr5zDEpT8llO
Retirement day.
>>737883927Its time for him to go home and be a family man. He can still get a happy ending
>>737884125lel
Why are Japanese people so bad at videogames now.
>>737886375LMAOOOOOO
>>737884125Tokido has a negative wlr against Mena lol
>>737883927every time I see Mena he's fatter and fatter.
>just get into fighting games last week>everyone today saying fighting games just died
>>737886707It didn't die, some boomer just lost.
>>737883927Fighting games will never die as long as Plus R exists
>>737886707Good job. You killed fighting games.
>fighting game are dead because a 50 years old drunk uncle who drowns in pools can't beat the current best player in the worldI love Daigo but be fucking real.
>>737886865>Jap won against the whole army of the westI kneel.
>>737883927What happened?
>>737886943>best player in the world mains blanka:|Are people really addicted to this shit? Like I used to play fighting games 6 hours every single day, its all i thought about. Do you really like these new games like that
>>737887198I just play old games
>>737883927I haven't watched the whole set because I was at work, but was there a single time Menard blocked one of Daigo's DPs?
>>737887232You can't play old games forever, at some point you realize a new game in that genre is never gunna come out again that you'll enjoy and it's time to move on.
>>737883927uncbros...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXbzhs0GATM
>>737887256>3 million air options>footsies
>>737887309Well I’ll stick to them until I don’t enjoy them anymore, I don’t expect that to be any time soon though.
>>737887305he blocked it once I think but he ate quite a few umeshoryusby the end he stopped trying to force meaties because he got scared of it and just fell back to playing it slow building lvl2 supers
>>737887420I hope to god you're not playing testament fighter +R
>>737886530he consumes his opponents by deep frying them in beef tallow and wrapping them in a tortilla
In the fat vs. alcoholism battle, fat has won total victory
>>737887526I am. And I main Zappa and Testament! But I’ve been trying Sol and Justice lately and having fun with them too.
>>737887198>I used to play fighting games 6 hours every single day, its all i thought about.i keep trying to find a game that makes me feel like that again
>>737887629lmao you ain't playing real fighting games
>>737887684If saying that makes you feel better, sure.
>>737887526You say that like Testament is even common
>>737887826He's the 200ms online special, every +R fan is a laggy testament player, I already knew what he was gunna be
YOU ARE ALL FREE NOW
>>737883927So happy I’m not a FGCtranny. KWAFB
>>737887892You’ve never played it.
was it at least hype or did mena just let him win a few games after realizing it would be wash
>>737887940How did I know then
>>7378879525-5 was hype
>>737887952it was neck to neck until the 5-5, then mena started winning
>>737887969You didn’t because Testament is one of the rarest characters
>>737883975its so fucking over, fightans, society, its all over
>>737883927glad I went to sleep instead yesterday
>>737888014Anon what are the odds that I would call it, I knew exactly what it was.
I used to love fighting games, years ago. Then I realized I am too scrubby to actually get good, and I moved on and decided to obsess over TCG games instead. I tried to get into Street Fighter 6 and got filtered by the Drive Rush mechanic, like if that is a mechanic I have to contend with, I'd rather just not play (or even spectate).
once the old guard is gone then fighting games will truly diethe fat fuck won but nobody really cares
>>737887256Blanka level 2 is the Gene-jin of SF6.That being said, SF6 meta managed to become even worse than endseason of SFV, where they fixed most of it.
>>737888089You just said that because you heard he’s strong and thought it was like modern games where anyone can pick up a top tier and win for free
Daigo hasn't really won anything in a very long time anyway.
>>737885380i wish this was the whole movie
>>737888180lol holy cope I read that nigga like a book
>>737888347Just saying you’re exposing yourself as never having played a fighting game by saying Testament is even common at all. And even though he’s the best character the gap between him and the rest is much smaller than top tiers in most games. Hotta regularly shreds even the best players in Japan while playing Justice. If you called it Sol fighter Plus R you may have had a sliver of an idea about the actual usage rates.
>>737888492Beginners mashing in the game because they thought sol, slayer, and ky were super pog is not representative of what playing the game is actually like. I knew immediately it was a retard playing testament. The meta of +r is absolute ass, especially online. You're the one fixated on usage rates.
>>737888651You sound really mad for getting called out. Testament isn’t common in the highest level of play either. Keisuke and Jacobpat are the only two high level players on him. Sol and Order Sol are popular everywhere because they’re cool and the game is balanced enough to win with anyone, despite what redditors claim.
>>737888217This was more of a symbolic passing of the torch. Daigo has been washed for awhile now, but this show match was specifically set up as an old veteran vs new generation thing. Seeing daigo get trounced just confirms the old era of FGC is done and dusted.>Daigo washed>Tokido washed>Kazunoko washed>Bonchan washed>Momochi sort of washed>Gamerbee retired>Xian retired>Luffy retired>Fuudo became a family man>Justin Wong became a family man>Infiltration cancelled
>>737888787>+r is great because I can hammer down retarded sol players with testament all day with 20 frames of input delay from australiaSure thing anon, this is becoming circular
>>737888919Whatever helps you sleep at night. You seem oddly obsessed about the netcode when it’s better than even the newest games. I play Testament and Sol just fine.
>>737888792>MomochiWho?
i can't believe it's all over...
>>737883927WHAT A LIFE
Being good at bad games just kills the scene entirely. I'm sorry zoomers find out this way. FGC died with SF4.
>>737888792>all the old guard either washed, retired, or deceased>new guys who come in are more often than naught literal fags who impose draconian rules on all tournaments now>all the current fighting games have either shot themselves in the foot through atrocious patches, didn't have much a chance in the first place to impress people, or are Slime Fighter 6, which remains the most popular fighting game in recent memory, much to the chagrin of humanityHow did we get here
>>737888792Not all of them. Momochi and Fuudo still make regular top 8s. Go1 is still the god of poverty games and a top player in SF6 and CotW.
>>737888919>+r is great because I can hammer down retarded sol players with testament all dayI did that a bit and I got bored out of my mind because nobody's blocking 6P
Just watched the set. Daigo sat on so much fucking meter, he really wanted to land a demon or something when it could have won him a round to use it as a reversal/combo finisher
>>737889130>autism genre attracts autism people that autisticly fight over banal shitI wonder why
>competitive faitan gameskek fighting vidya is for those rare evenings when you meet up with your boys and play that shit locally. Being competitive about it is comparable to speedrunning undertale
>>737883927It's Daigover....
>>737889130>old guardThey simply dropped out of the scene. Love 3S and have no interest in the new game? Your game has been stuck on X360 until Capcom made a half assed port 10 years later with no crossplay. Scenes simply die and people move onto new games or life.>new peopleAnime fighters. They brought all the LGBT people with their sexual perversion, politics and power abuse to protect themselves from any criticism or judgement. >current fighting gamesCapcom saw the money RE and Monster Hunter were making and wanted that out of SF. How to do that? Create a SF which gets rid of any advantage that time playing the game could have given someone in playing. That will mean that new players that buy all the DLC crap can become masters.>>737889459The old style of SF was that you download your opponent, wait for them to make a mistake or for you to pick up a pattern in their play. Then you cash out all your meter. In SF6 that's impossible because the game rewards randomness rather than strategy.
>>737883927Qrd?
so now that modern fightan is dead, can we just go back to 3.3 ?
the problem isn't that the old generation is being destroyed by the new one, that happens in every sport - even Michael Jordan had to retire at some point.The problem is, the current generation of fighting games is fucking GARBAGE
>>737890736when will you retards learn that people would rather quit fighting games altogether than play your uncslop?
>>737890139>Love 3S and have no interest in the new game? Your game has been stuck on X360 until Capcom made a half assed port 10 years later with no crossplayYou’re making up excuses if you say this. Immense weakness.
>>737889246I still see sparks of brilliance in Momochi. Fuudo is pretty washed he will never be a potential winner again, but that is fine since he has a kid now.
>>737890910it's funny you mention basketball because the current gen is also considered to be meme chucking/traveling/no defense garbage
>>737890910considering its infested with faggots and trannies so might as well let it die
>>737890964i did stop playing fighting games altogether, doesn't change the fact i would love that the "fgc" would stop playing trash games and go back to good ones, hell, even SF4 would be better than this fucking shit
>>737887643I never stopped doing it, I just moved on to other genres. I think it's easy to get addicted to fighting games because the rounds are so fast and it's a lot of dopamine, but there are plenty of games I find fascinating regardless and put work into.
>>737891097i dont keep up with sports ball at all, any of them. but i have seen some semi-recent traveling compilations, what the actual fuck?>>737891114don't forget the corporations. they literally chopped down the number of fights in the final round of SF6 evo last year so they'd have time for more CHIPOTLE ADS
>>737890139>The old style of SF was that you download your opponent, wait for them to make a mistake or for you to pick up a pattern in their play. Then you cash out all your meter.On the contrary that is what happened to Daigo. He held onto meter like it was his mother and refused to use it. He also never let wake up super rip so after awhile Mena realized Daigo is teethless and just started going HAM. It was a download, but not from the beast, who is now old and has alcohol flowing through its veins.
>>737883927didn't train hard enough (didn't drink enough biru and sake)
>>737891127yeah better leave permanently and forget that the genre even exist because no one is ever going back lmao
>>737891289soon, hopefully
>>737891289I truly do not expect capcom to be capable of making a port as accurate as it is on fightcade. I would like to see it happen though because it'd be good to be able to select stages and music.
>>737891401source has been leaked, a pc port is currently under work
>>737891674It's based off the ps2 version ain't it? It doesn't have unblockables and Akuma's overhead.
>fighting games are dead because Daigo lost a setMy god, you niggers are obnoxious. Hurry up and die, you skill-less fucks.
>>737891195>wakeup supers are high level play nowNothing to add here.>going hamThrowing random shit at someone that is all safe, then throw loops on top of it isn't downloading, it's rewarding random bullshit. >daigo is an old alcoholicWhat does Daigo's age have to do with anything? He's not holding back SF. If zoomies like yourself want the game, have it, your guy is now the best ever. I doubt anyone from the older eras even enjoys SF in it's current state or where it's going. They are just shocked that this is what the game is and would like it if there were alternatives that they can play.
>>737891674Where did you hear that?
>>7378916743rd Strike Online Edition was a rom that had near perfect accuracy, but it was removed from stores.
>>737891912https://www.generationamiga.com/2026/02/22/3sx-native-pc-port-bringing-street-fighter-iii-3rd-strike-to-modern-systems/it's still very early but they are working hard, i'd say we can hope for a rlz around Q4 2026 or 2027 for sure
>>737891195Makes sense if you put it that way, since SF6 rewards recklessness and then knowledge. Daigo played like he was playing SF4 here. Being methodical and cautious wont cut it in this stupid ass game. The funny thing about it, is that Daigo was being more aggressive today than he was in the past with akuma. Even that didnt helped him. The only he could have won was to go ape with ryu against that fat beaner
>>737883927is he okay
>>737893809Mena didn't play reckless at all though. Never jumped in, barely ever slime rushed in, barely ever reversal'd upball, almost never got caught delay teching, used blanka balls very sparingly despite Daigo never parrying them, only went into level 2 from safe cancels.The most reckless thing you can accuse him of doing was not respecting Daigo's wakeup and eating a lot of dps.
>>737888792Fuudo is living inside a fucking ecchi-manga
>>737888014I wouldn't say Testament is the most common, but he's certainly not one of the rarest. He doesn't even have difficulty keeping people away from him because he's an easier top tier than Baiken and Zappa. I don't know if he's in the top 5 character I came across playing the game, but he was definitely at least top 10, and I do mean at least.
I like how he basically just threw fireballs at a character that can easily punish them. Daigo was not playing SF6.
>>737884125Tokido died when he switched out of Gouki. Should've stop playing until he got released.
>>737888792>Infiltration cancelledIf they only they cancelled that little weasel UltraDavi insteadWouldn't be shocked if he was an industry man who has been masquerading as an FGC OG all along
>>737883927tokon, invincible, avatar, rottk, virtual fighter
>>737891909Wakeup supers are part of high level play, just like wakeup ex dragon punch. If you never exercise that option, your opponent will just run you over into more 50-50 throw loops like what mena did to daigo.And if you think mena's flowchart blanka setups are "random" bullshit you know nothing about sf6 and there's no reason to hand you anymore (You)s.
>>737891909>alternatives that they can playIm just sitting here wondering where all the uncs who swore by VF5 are after claiming that it was the best game everWell now its on every platform and has crossplay and excellent netcode so whats the excuse theyre using to not switch from SF6 now huh?FGC uncles are genuinely so hypocritical and lazyIf its not Tekken or SF they dont care
>>737887198>best player in the world mains blanka:|>best player in the world mains shotos #653:O

>older people worse at reaction time gamesyes..? what do you expect
>>737883927>>737886707>>737889130>>737890910VF will save us.
no, Street Fighter* is dead and has been for a while. this is the price of trying to make this genre accessible for retards
>>737883927he looked upset unc thought he could win
>>737887035I axed you a guevestion
>>737898056Sega is retarded
>>737891097and then you have wembanyama who's the most entertaining basketball player since prime lebron. sit the fuck down.
>>737898056>Continuously updates the PC version to be worse in your pathNothing personal, Sega.
>>737890910>The problem is, the current generation of fighting games is fucking GARBAGEIt's not just fighting games, it's everything.
>>737891909>there were alternatives that they can play.There is. It's not Zoomers fault Boomers are Capkeks and chained to Capcom.Take the Arc System Pill and play Guilty: XX: Accent Core+R, Boomer. You'll free yourself from Capcom.
>>737896429>If its not Tekken or SF they dont careThese people have invested 20 years of their lives in some cases to these franchises. This is what they play with their friends, these are the games that they have invested thousands of hours of muscle memory or matchup knowledge learning the game, they have spent money on games over the years and so on.These people kept these franchises alive and supported tournaments, streamers and other creators when the game was ignored by the mainstream of gaming. They created the thing that the low skill normie gamers wanted to be a part of.Now after building this instead of having this for themselves finally with the place it deserves in gaming, they are basically booted out because Capcom sees money inviting these assholes in and pimping out what these people made for short term profit. These entitled fucks will simply demand more and more until the game sucks and no one sees anything in it like they did to every other franchise that caters to people like this.>why not go to vf5If people went to VF5 and created something there, then the cycle would repeat again. It's simply where talent and hard work goes money and attention follow which brings the losers and the hangers on. VF5 needs to be built from scratch. Virtual Fighter outside of Japan has been a dead game for 30 years. It'd take years of building a community, doing tournaments, attracting people with personality and talent to be in the scene and so on. Why would anyone want to do that when your 'compensation' is going to be kicked out of your own game so the publisher can invite everyone to enrich themselves? They wouldn't. That's why no one tries anymore.
>>737887256SF6 is the first game where Blanka isn't just a grab bag of knowledge checks.
>>737898056only a few Tekken player will probably play it for a while and drop it.
>>737898056RGG Studio haven't been too inspiring lately.
>>737887198Blanka being good is better than Guile being good
>>737895861What UD did ever do?>>737897558Neither of the players were best in anything.
>>737898056idk, after Yakuza kiwami 3 I am not so sure.
>>737886359It's too late to try and change at 40.Fighting games is all he has.
>>737900753Guy I work with had kids at 57
>>737900753Its actually an albatross around his neck. He has a family and works as a nurse. He went back to this shame because capcom likes to parade his previous accomplishments around and he gets a cut of it.
It's tine for uncs to realize modern fighters are just dumbed down rushfests for the zoomers and Gen a kids
>>737898682>boy do I miss these old games that play this specific way with less retarded anime shit like drive or whatever the fuck>YOU SHOULD PLAY THIS OLD GAME WITH SO MUCH RETARDED ANIME SHIT IT WAS CONSIDERED TURBO NICHE EVEN BACK IN THE TURBO NICHE DAYS DUE TO HOW LITTLE PEOPLE LIKED IT BOTH THEN OR NOW! I remember awhile back seeing someone say that there is something fundamentally wrong with guilty gear players and fans regardless of the game. They were right.
>>737896429VF5 is bland asf, not interesting at all.
>>737886375KWAB
>>737884125Daigo literally humiliated him harder than Punk 1 or 2 years after this
daigo has been bad since sf5, actually even by the end of sf4 he was already struggling hard.
>>737900908i bet his 10 year old kids are thrilled their 70 year old dad cant wipe his own ass anymore
>>737900581Guile should be good in a game like street fighter. When blanka is doing well something has gone really wrong. That is not an archetype that should define what SF is.
>>737886375shamefur dispray
>>737899328>These people kept these franchises alive and supported tournaments, streamers and other creators when the game was ignored by the mainstream of gaming.No they didn't you moron, most fighting games flopped, including SF3. Nobody playing the games is what caused them to change.
>>737901434GG story was full anime shit since the beginning, but compared with other anime fighting stories this one was kinda cool (crusaders fighting a futuristic mecha that wants to rule the world).But beign honest I started to ignore the whole story since Xrd Sign.
>>737904818Dude I'm talking about the gameplay. Point is that the majority of the people complaining about modern games and the retarded anime shit in them like heat and drive are not going to want to play one of the retarded anime shit filled oldies like +R.
>>737901434>>737905167I think the most telling is when you hear retards say Strive is too aggressive or has too many 50/50s while praising +R
>>737886707Don't worry, they died like 10 years ago when devs & publishers took over the competitive scenes to turn them into arms of marketing and everyone said thank you while they got fucked up the ass
>>737905314>+Reven xrd is the same thingalmost every character in guilty gear is a gorilla
>>737887309>You can't play old games foreverYes I canAre you retarded?
>>737887952It was really hype, but Mena just won more often and Daigo kept getting hit by Blanka's weirder bullshit.
>>737897910Man, this wasn't a thing even just 10 years ago. Sucks how much it's a thing now.
>>737903863You are fucking braindead, Daigo was an absolute beast as Evil Ryu in the USFIV. Only Kazunoko could stop him, he wiped the floor eith everyone at the top tournaments and Topanga League and World League (where you have the fight each opponent individually). I'd say that Daigo was as close to prime Daigo (circa 2009-2010 to me) as possible.
>>737905432I kinda feel like +R took over Xrd as the poseur GG game
>>737886707If fighting games are ever dead it won't be because an old player lost an exhibition match.
>>737905487The better you get the smaller the pool of players gets and in old games the pool is already pretty small to begin with.
>>737905998Yeah, Daigo is a beast(heh) at split-second stuff like SF4 combos.He seems to struggle with SF6 at times for some reason tho.
>>737906304>He seems to struggle with SF6 at times for some reason tho.The amount of people playing sf6 for real in japan is far less than /v/ imagines it. How the fuck would daigo learn to fight blanka? Where is the good Japanese blanka?
I thought fighting games were dead until I bit the bullet and tried 2XKO. Actually godlike game - it's designed by real MvC and Xrd heads and it shows. A fighting game by the players and for the players in the 2020s was not on my bingo sheet, but damn am I glad it's here.
>>737906631>MvC and Xrd headsSkullgrils already tried to fuse those two things together and it sucked.
>>737886707Welcome to the club.
>>737883927It was a very good fight, I think Daigo performed as well as any other top player would have and probably even better than someAll things considered this a symbolic victory for Daigo
Funny, for me this set actually proved that daigo is the greatest of all time, i was hesitant before and thought this was gonna be a wash
>>737906091It didn't it's just that this place does have some +R players but the +R players here also happen to be the most vocal and schizo ones.
>>737907010>All things considered this a symbolic victory for Daigolmao no it aint, this dudes career is over
>>737906631You forgot bbtag and dnf duel niggers but yeah it definitely shows with how much of a piece of shit it is. Guilty gear fans shouldn't be allowed to touch game development.
>>737907183how so?
>>737883927why wasnt daigo playing ryu? he's a ryu main
>>737907010>>737907024It's actually wild how good he did.People kept calling him washed and unable to compete but he still won 6 matches against the current best in the world, that's crazy.Old man Daigo can drink as much as he wants, he's earned it.
>>737907340Akuma had better overall options against Blanka.Also, Beast symbolism.
>>737886707It didn't just die...IT WAS KILLED!!!
>>737907249Dude didn't even enter evo, he's a nobody now. This was his last chance to be relevant.
>Calling Mena the strongest player in history today>Uses Blanka in a fighting game with no neutrallmfao
>>737883927>Daigo Mishima....is dead
>In the end by dying Daigo set us all free https://youtu.be/_yYS0ZZdsnA?si=0quBhlZZg59S36w9
>>737907602he's always gong to be everybody, no matter win or lose, everybody making bread in fighting games is thanks to that man
>>737907183>>All things consideredIncluding>He was fighting the best in the world>Against a bullshit dishonest anime character>He's almost twice the age of his opponent>He hates this game and his opponent loves it>He streams, coaches, drinks, plays phone games, goes out on walks, while he's opponent trains the whole day>He performed similarly to the likes of Endingwalker, Punk or Xiaohai, other top players, all of whom have also lost against his opponent Hi victory is symbolic, all things considered
>>737908051There is no "all things considered". If the game was shit he should have said its shit and not played it. People like daigo are why things keep getting worse and worse because getting paid > playing a good game.
>Nooo don't leave us uncs! we have more games coming out Go on lil zoomie go play with the brown kids, we uncs gotta install age of empires and finally start paying the child support. Good luck kids.
>>737886375Tokido couldn't fathom how Daigo could take the pro scene so unseriously but take beating him personally. If you think about it, Tokido's thing has always been doing what the fuck ever to win at all times even if people hate him for it so it makes sense he couldn't square this particular circle. If you read the account of what happened that's what was up. Still funny as fuck though seeing old murderface crying bitch tears. Pure kino.
It was so ass to watch, Daigo got most of his damage through smart calls, being off sync with his fireballs while Mena just put him through the blender with S2
>>737889130The FGC unironically didn't say keep saying nigga or post porn enough.That's how you make the corpos stay away.
>>737907340>he's a ryu mainDaigo is a "whichever shoto/all-rounder is the highest tier" main. Dude was a Guile main for most of SFV.
>>737884646Soccer does not change rules, play style or format every gen though, the game itself literally has not gotten better or worse. Don't get me wrong, Street Fighter has been fucked for 3 years now and that was not going to change no matter what happened in this FT10 but I understand, it's still depressing to get yet another confirmation that the game favors zoomie, gorilla-tier gameplay.
>>737883927Damn, after that speech he gave and everything. Still the whole challenge was bullshit. >Let me fight a legendary fighting game player who's basically retired in a game he has no results in so I can feel good and humiliate himFat fucking cunt.
>>737908449Wait is that what the context was? Daigo beating him so badly he cried? Lmao
I root against Menard because he plays ugly or fat characters and he's also fat himself
>>737909531He did play Luke at the end of SFV when the character was retarded strong, which is just a different kind of faggotry.
When you think about it this is extremely unfair for Daigo, framing this as Mena somehow being a better player than him. Daigo was top dog when fighting games were just being born, and he held that spot for decades. Sure now he's weaker in modern games than he used to be, but lets see Mena face him in SF3, SF4, SF5, Vsav, or any of the other games Daigo played. Mena's skill is just in one game.
>>737907183It's been over for 10 years, you retard. Everyone keeps watching Daigo because they like him and his playstyle, not because they are expecting him to win another Evo or a Capcom Cup. He knows too, he only plays because its his passion, not because he still believes he is the best presently. He still stood the test of time far better than his western counterparts, I guarantee you Valle or Justin can't place as well as he does in SF tournaments he still does to this day.
>>737909695Justin is crazy good at Fatal Fury, if he really wanted he could compete at a very high level
>>737908449The funny thing is that Tokido is now at Daigo's age phase with SFV. He has barely won any relevant tournaments and he isn't getting any sharper by the day. Street Fighter 7 will be the end of him but hopefully he will have learnt something from Daigo and gracefully accept it and still play not just to be the best but because he enjoys it. My hats still off to him though - his determination to be the best culminated with his dominant perfomance in Topanga Championship 2023 and it was a beautiful thing to see.
>>737891067Not playing on faggotcade
>>737909825He placed top 32 in a event that had about 430 participants and is nowhere as competitive as Street Fighter. I love Justin's contributions to the FCG community and how he still does his best to keep it alive but let's be honest anon, Justin is way past his monstrous MvC prime too.
Silver lining is that japs are gonna cry bloody murder over that green BR now and he's gonna get his knees capped, god I hate fighting that ugly monkeyman piece of shit
>>737883927VF5 Revo. Turns out you only had to rerelease games made before the genre went to shit.
>>737883927Needs a turn the lights off edit
>>737910259>replies to a post about people making excuses>with an excuseZero self awareness.
Why are uncs so mad their era is over?
>>737909682It is, but don't expect that faggot fat zoomie or any of his fans to understand it. Peak Daigo was immensely better at fighting games than this cunt and he was never obnoxious about it.
>>737910627Idc, still not playing on fagcade
>>737910673No one cares what you do or don't do.
Daigo lost to a guy who started fighting games with injustice 2 and people are in here damage controlling like this shit ain't a disaster LMAOOO
>>737910831In what way and for who or what is this a disaster?This question is an IQ test.
>>737910831Isnt mena the 2 time evo champion of sf6?
>>737899643He's all knowledge checks, but that knowledge likely won't save you.
>>737910882I don't know if I have an IQ high enough to answer that anon, my IQ isn't high enough to for NRS shit LOL
>>737883927did anyone really expect Diego to win?
dont forget menard was using a controller too keep buying those 300$ arcade sticks though they will definitely get you to diamond faster
>>737911091People expected a 10-0 embarrassing beat-down in Mena's favor. The fact that Daigo did so well is the surprise.
>>737911258Modern fighting games are so easy even pad zoomers get to win. Some footage of someone winning a 3S, KOF 98 or GGXXAC+ tournament with a console controller
IT'S NOT TOO LATE /v/ GET ON FIGHTCADE
Do people really look back at SF5 fondly? I remember it constantly being bashed here. Watching this Daigo match made me realize that SF6 is whacky bullshit so I guess SF5 looks good in comparison. Idk maybe I’m just a bitter “boomer”
>>737883927Nigga I get a match on tekken in less than a minute on ranked
>>737910831>injustice 2so he's more of an OG than you rambaretard
>could have retired as a god>burns the prestige of his title and career for a few bucksIs Daigo a retard?
>>737911493I always enjoyed SFV, literally from day 1, but I know that was not the general opinion.I understand and agree with -some- of the complaints about it, but some others are absolutely retarded, doubly so when they are said by people who think SF6 is not only a good game but better than SFV
This is who fighting games are made for nowhttps://youtu.be/NT54Vgw6pOc&t=917
>>737911601Saying no to a challenge would have gone against everything Daigo stands for
>>737907183People that deal in extremes like you are faggots, anybody can bounce back Iam not even a huge Daigo fan but everyone talking like you are like gossiping women, pipe the fuck down retard.
>>737909979Tokido just has to avoid becoming an alcoholic and he's guaranteed to perform better than Diego.
>>737883927And comeback mechanics killed them
>>737911771>le ebin fighting spirit speech>still jobs to a fat retardDaigo is a fraud
>>737911706Que clasicada
>>737911706tranny
Daigo losing wouldn't suck so much if Mena's playstyle wasn't so goddamn fraudulent. Daigo is just playing solid as fuck SF with amazing anti-air reads while Mena got carried by that Blanka lv 2. It was so annoying seeing Daigo taking the first round but then Mena basically locks him down once he has meter
>smells the bullshit in the air when comp fighting game events go online, nopes out to become a content creator instead>has a way more stable livelihood and gets to play games funsies with his reputation as a killer intact Justin won
I might be misremembering but didn't menaRD himself say, multiple times, that SF6 is low-skill and random as fuck and basically that the game just fucking sucks? and he's right btw. I wouldn't take this ft10 set seriously at all by nature of the game being top tier actual fucking garbage slop. It's like people waging it all away in a one-touch combo game like marvel 3 or some shit. SF6 is just fucking bad and will remain bad forever.
>>737912245Justin wong*
>>737912061I will never understand the hate for mena. He's the only Blanka player in top 128, probably 256 too but I don't watch pools that shallow, and has beaten plenty of other pros including Kakeru. In fact I'd say Kakeru has an infinitely more fraudulent playstyle with his JP. And you can't even use the excuse that Mena is abusing some hidden sleeper OP character when he's been playing Blanka for 2+ years now.
Damn, Daigo dropped some combos on matches 11 to 13, and kept holding onto the super after DP after that. It was shocking to see him mess that up. I guess the age caught up.
>>737912245He REALLY needs to lose weight, hes gonna fucking die.Same with mena, and daigo needs to quit drinking but hes a jap, they all drink and smoke cigs.All these fighting game fags have awful lifestyles and health.
>>737912956I believe he was kinda playing the part of a heel a few years ago when he got into the scene and even had some twitter beef with people or made some rude comments, so some people have been hating on him since. He definitely acts more humble and polite these days. And people just don't like lvl2 install because it's very strong even after the nerfs but no one else really plays Blanka much so its hard to point to it being busted.
>>737887952Mena sandbagged a little bit. People whining about blanka are correct in general but not during this set. Daigo was very successful in defending the blanka anime slop. What made him lose was just getting outplayed as a whole. His punishes were more consistent, his confirms were better, his neutral was betterZ
OW MENARDS
>>737912956He's also a super humble and nice guy. It's impossible to hate him, at least on stage.
>>737913187doesn't Daigo have a real-ass job in the healthcare industry? that alone is probably pretense enough for him to have to drink out of social obligation in that country
I hope this match has truly lit a fire in his heart like he says and he is inspired to take the game seriously. This Daigo was much better than how he has been performing since the game came out, if he irons out some of the mistakes he made in this fight we're definitely talking about Evo Japan top 8
>>737887952Daigo started off very strong in games 1-2. By the time it got to 5-5 he lost a lot of steam and it felt like Mena had him downloaded for the rest of the set. You could feel the crowd deflate in real time.
>>737912245Justin Wong quite literally made a career of beating niggers in a game the Nips didn't play. If MvC2 had one, just one real Japanese player, then Justin's career there would have looked like his CvS2 career or his Street Fighter career. I don't think Justin took a single set off of Bas even one time. And his Street Fighter record you probably already can conjour in your mind on your own.
>>737912245This is standard practice for all competitive players now.>Stream yourself joining online tournaments, tryhard, actually attempt to win consistently>MAYBE attend offline tournaments and try to win too>once you grow your audience, slowly but surely straight up fucking quit playing fighting games you fucking hate and do variety content and have fun instead>become a full time streamer and stop being a competitor or fgc guy I forget his name but there was some Strive player that did this and last time he got recommended to me on twitch he was playing some ps2 game or something with like 900+ viewers which is good. It says a lot about modern fighting games where the move is to use them as your starting point into content creation and then you immediately fuck off from it once you get some growth on your non-fighting game things, to then fully stop playing them altogether.
why are all of the newer players such unbearable fucking faggots? The contrast between Daigo being friendly and humble and the zoomers he's competing against now all being ADHD morons that scream and talk shit constantly is insane
>>737913529Yeah, he was missing a few punishes and dropping combos after the 5-5. I feel like he might have even gotten to at least 8 wins if he hadn't fumble those moments. His positioning was also too close when he used fireballs later on, and the air fireballs wasn't doing much for him anymore, he was getting countered or trading a lot for it. It seems like he ran out of the mental steam after dealing with some lvl2s
>>737913614https://youtu.be/6_LxBrB-GYE
>>737897910I don't understand how so many of these people go through life like this without an ounce of shame. It's like social media turned everyone into a malignant narcissist.
>one of the best players in the world for several decades performs 1% worse than usual now that he is pushing 50 and heavily out of practice compared to how zeroed in he was in the past>insufferable zoomer faggots going LMAO HES WASHED BOOMERS TAKE THE L FRFR NO CAP
>>737912245Justin had the best commentary during this set snipes had menards dick down his throat and the third guy had nothing interesting to contribute
>>737913876>gif with a generic filename The internet is so shit now
>>737914150calm down unc you still got it
>>737914150Daigo has been washed for awhile
>>737913614JWong has always been a top player in SF, but I don't think ever champion level. Even back in SF4 days I don't remember him ever winning a major despite always being in top 8. I do think that if MvC2 had the same scene as SF these days he definitely wouldn't be as revered.
>washed up fat miserable alcoholic blatantly doing shit purely for money while addicted to gacha on his phoneWhy has everything that used to be good become shit now?
>no posts saying how it wentC'mon friends throw me a bone here, I'm wageslaving. We're friends right?
>>737883927he's gonna drown his sorrows in SO many chuhais and haiboorus tonight
>>73791442310 - 6. Mena won daigo lost.
>>737914331Nah, he would be by casuals. Jwong is also the proto Sonic fox who tends to be great in the first 1-3 tournaments of new games. If the scene was different zoom zooms would fellate his early wins in games’ lifespans like they do sonic foxes
The cope in this thread is unfathomable. Seeing Japan and uncs get crushed and humiliated is amazing
>>737889083beast-sama...
>>737914475Thanks lad.
>>737905615Ten years ago you were like 6 so you didn't notice.
>>737914475wew, I thought Diego had just gotten 7-1'd but this ain't so bad considering the age difference
I'm looking to branch out from Ryu but who do I play with easy optimals and an unga playstyle but more on go up to people's faces and beat them the shit up rather than whiff punishing. Akuma? Ken? Cammy? Mai? Terry?
>>737914710The last half was really free though
Does age really matter in a game like sf6, like daigo missed punishes on raw supers. That's not because of age, the whole set just felt like an awkward scramble and menard catching him with the same shit over and over. Like do you really need superhuman reaction speed in a game like this
>>737884393That's what marriage does to a man.
>>737914563I'm almost 40. I remember Kayo Police, and I remember Arris commentating with her, and I remember the /b/ threads with Bailey Jay and that biological girl who looked like a bald lumberjack and had a vagina. And I'm telling you that even 10 years ago, this wasn't a thing. The further back you go, the less of a thing it becomes, but even a decade ago it was practically nonexistent and now they infest every autist community like a plague.
>>737913461That was like 20 years ago.
>>737914862>Does age really matterit always matters
>>737914814Old man is old.It was past his bedtime.
>Fat dude with a neckbeard playing a fraud character beats Honest UmeharaGrim
>>737914051it is quite literally their fetish, this gets them off anon
>>737914862Your reaction time and decision making ability decays with age. Daigo in his prime wouldn't miss those supers or whiff his punishes. In fact I don't think 2026 Daigo can do his infamous evo moment 37 organically anymore.
>>737897910
>>737889083Poor dude. He's gone to EVO in America too many times and become "Americanized" with their "food"...
>>737914806bump please someone
>>737914974For what, I don't play sf6 because holy shit fuck that but daigo looked genuinely frazzled. I only caught the second half of the set but it was mostly just Mena holding back and letting daigo hang himself, like he'd just wait for a fireball then perfect parry slime rush. Like I think he did this like 5 times. Why is this even a thing lol
>>737914563At least Kayo tried to look like a girl.
>>737914806NuSagat is perfect for ya
>>737897910LOL, that Asian dude's facial expression.>I can't wait for this to be over to that I can go back home to my sane country.
>>737915058How much recovery does a CA have? Like 30 frames? I mean come on dude.
>>737897910>Shemale is basically doing a poison cosplay>Omg these trannies are ruining my esports with their degeneracy where is this coming from
>>737915432Retard.
>>737915432How is that in any way a Poison cosplay?
>>737915308You said it yourself. Daigo kept holding his supers because he couldn't react in time and kept waiting for the "perfect" moment that never came.
>>737915168It's crazy how you can punish a fireball so easily, back in my day you had to risk a jump-in or spend a super to do that, on a read
brackman-sama... I kneeru eternar....
>sliming games
>>737897910ok you gotta be gay to not get hard at that
>>737914959You’re stupid Ricky was a thing
>>737915569No I'm talking about daigo missing a punish on mena shitting out a raw super right in his face. Like okay, nobody is perfect but this is supposed to be a set between pros. It was surreal to watch this. It felt like some shit you'd see in online matchmaking.
>>737886865>trying to find which character I want to play in +R, requisites are being cool, being fast and mechanically orthodox enough to teach me the fanta mentos since this is my first air dasher>go through like, 8 different characters, find all of them cool but none of them makes me go "holy shit">while looking around bored at the character select screen I remember Justice is in this fucking game>holy shit she's so fucking cool what a crazy design I have to play her>try her out in the training mode thinking she's probably a rushdown or a big normals character that puts fear into the opponent>she's a heavy body zoner picrel>with some really cheap-looking animations at that, even robo ky has proper missiles >find out she was originally a rushdown character in her boss fight version from the previous games and to get that stuff back in plus R you have to do an install>the install is not good enough to warrant using it in a real matchpicrel again
the grossest thing about SF6 is the auto parry button, what made the mechanic so cool in 3s was the skill required and willingness to gamble. Hell, focus block in USF4 takes way more skill
>>737915802I have zero interest in ever playing 6, how does Parry/Perfect Parry or whatever work?
>>737911258I just bought a leverless controller and I really enjoy how precise and consistent it makes my inputs. being able to tap 3 buttons and get a perfect hadouken every single time is great. setting up macro's for more demanding inputs like 360's, dragon punches or Calamity Symphony nonsense is a monkey off my back. I always had this problem where I would struggle with motion inputs if the sides ever swapped. this fixes that. I have a job and I enjoy video games as my main hobby. I think it was worth it just for the new experience and nuance and if anything.this shit ALMOST feels like cheating desu but considering any fighter on PC can be played with a keyboard I get its technically not. I am excited to learn Invincible Vs from scratch day1 with this come tomorrow
>>737915726Well if you watch the entire set you see Daigo missing super punishes that he would've gotten in his youth, whiffing punishes in general, and just reacting plain wrong to Mena's aggression (his fireball spacings). All are symptoms of age.
>>737915897>this shit ALMOST feels like cheatingWhat you're doing is literally cheating
>>737915592Fireballs used to be really complex in SF. They're interesting because unlike pressure the way they behave in terms of advantage is based on the opponents distance from you, and the way you react to them changes based off that distance too. So there's a lot of space control where it's like "okay I need to neutral jump this fireball otherwise theyll recover before i get in, im in range for a poke, I can hit the cross up here, etc."
>>737888123>likes TCG>doesn't enjoy the most card game street fighter ever made (drive impact and dozens of pre-planned moves)
>>737911431SF4 is the hardest fightan to ever exist and Luffy won Evo with a PS1 pad
At the end of the day... it is what it is.
>>737915278Sagat seems absurdly slow though.
>>737915897>demanding inputs like DP
>>737885215It was actually really close despite being 10-6 Menard. The games always went to last round, and Daigo only really lost every time he guessed wrong to Blanka lvl2
>>737916048>Pad shill is an sf4 worshipper
>>737916171cute dog
>>737901434>>boy do I miss these old games that play this specific way with less retarded anime shit like drive or whatever the fuckThen play KoF98 and shut the fuck up.The point is: There is NUMEROUS games out there, but Street Fighter/Capkeks continue to eat Capcom's shit and then whine that "Street has gotten bullshit" without actually PLAYING other games in the genre and wonder why nobody takes Street players seriously.
>>737916241Yes and I'm based.
>>737915671Don't try to gaslight me, tranny. If you go back even 10 years, trannies are barely a thing. The further back you go, the less of a thing they are. Nowadays, in 2026, they are everywhere in autistic gaming spaces. It's an epidemic.
>>737916263Huh? KoF98 is just shredding people with iori and yashiro.
I think I'm going to try out either Bison or Akuma next. I like Ryu's HP and 6HP but I hate always getting randomly DI and losing because I used my primary poking tool and I hate waiting for my opponent to come to me. Who would be better for just getting in, bullying the shit out of my opponent in the corner without caring too much about DPs or random shit?
>>737916263I quit Street fighter and got into other series when SF6 came out, I just found it intolerably ugly. I'm not gonna lie, I don't like any of the things I play now as much as I liked the previous Street Fighter games, but I sure as fuck am not going to play 6 just because it has "Street Fighter" in the name.
>>737915671Even Ricky had the common sense to not dress like a tranny in public during the SF4 era.
I will not remember this match in 1 year.Will you?
>>737915890you literally just hold a button and the character auto parries, granted you burn “stamina” doing so you can just hold it for as long as you want.
Ricky doesnt dress like a prostitute. But many tranners do, its a problem
>>737916171its my fault probably because the way I got myself used to DP was just by doing TWO QFC motions. this makes hammering it mid-combo from like a 2-frame light punch really hard.I would have to sit in training mode for the longest time kind of taking deep breaths, clearing my mind and acclimating my hands to the motions. now I just press BIG BUTTON plus kick and I get my cannon spike everytime. know more hospitalizations from Sakura Twister inputs for me.
>>737916553What match?
>>737916654damn this image is old
>>737915897nigga Z inputs and Circle inputs are literally the first thing I learned when I was 14 looking up guides online, your telling me you can’t? Leverless is literally cheating, part of the skill in fighting games is being able to pull off inputs consistently.
I hate low functioning autists so, so much. High functioning autists become cool engineer type guys, but these become the worst dreggs imaginable.
>>737916727>Jamie Lee CurtisHoly cursed bloodline.
>>737915897Stop slandering leverless by making it seem like the heinous shit you're doing has anything to do with the controller you're using.
>>737916654>Tekken fans image used to refer to how combos being juggles was very silly>now it can refer to people waiting for Bamco to actually listen to their feedbackBeautiful.

>>737913187>hes gonna fucking die.So are you lol.
>>737916553I will remember.
>>737911493I really enjoyed season 1 solely because I've always wanted Mika to return in a game and be playable. When she got nerfed in season 2 it kinda took the rose tinted glasses off my face and then I jumped ship to Tekken with the rest of the migratory herd since there wasn't anything else holding me. Despite him being fucking broken I hate how 5 turned Dictator into something completely different compared to how he was beforehand and they completely raped Claw the way they've been doing it to SF6's formerly charge DLC characters.
>>737916682yeah, I have a old ass folder from like 2008ish~ or whatever. I never get to post much from it>>737916697I can do it, just not consistently. its the consistency factor that makes it appealing. I like that in my mind combos are just a sequence of buttons like a pattern memory puzzles they stick in games. FOR WHAT ITS WORTH. I've been mostly PC masterrace since middle school and haven't used gamepads to the point playing one these days is almost alien to me and awkward. using my thumb to wiggle around the analog compared to just tapping buttons is impossible to pass on for me.
>>737916654>VS fansGod I miss when thug niggas where more prevalent in the FGC, now we have dorks like Punk and Sonic Fox.

>>737911091Yeah I thought this was a league of legends situation where they let the most popular OG player win once every few years to get more easy money from the bug people market
>>737913614mvc3 destroyed this narrative 2 decades ago btw
>>737884393that's what Street Slimer 6 does to a man.
SHOBU JA!
must be a sheer coincidence that westerners start beating long time japanese players as soon as SF is dumbed down for western appeal starting at 5.
>>737917778this but japanese started losing without their year headstart in every game
>>737916446Sans those mail nipple poker shirts.
Fighting games will survive. It's not like the match was between Lily and Manon. Sixteen matches between two beasts was very entertaining. It was 5-5 at one point.
>>737914959>And I'm telling you that even 10 years ago, this wasn't a thing.Words mean things and you are not using them correctly.
>>737915058>Your reaction time and decision making ability decays with ageIt really doesn't however, that only happens if you let yourself go and stop working out/staying healthy, which is precisely what Daigo did.
to be fair jobbing on purpose to lupe fiasco was a bigger hit to Daigo's reputation than losing to MenuRD who's pretty good at Suto6
>>737917778>starting at 5.

>>737918528good b8
>>737919150>The characters in sf6 look goodThe only decent looking character so far was Cammy. Everyone else looked silly, goofy, ridiculous. The game is obviously tailored to Americans, that's why there are trannies and negros in it.

>>737919503Not with that neanderthal brow and retarded expressions, she isn't. The ass is nice. That's it.

>>737919503Did you just see those words and have your brain shut off and ignore the rest of the post to make your reply? To be more specific for your dumbass I am saying that most sf6 characters look ugly with a very few amount of exceptions and even then said characters look very bad a lot of the time still.
>>737911493I got Menat, Karin, and Ibuki back in V. I was only missing Dudley.
>>737919841>tfw Ibuki literally turned into a nigrette in sf6feels bad man
>>737912245What? His content is dogshit and not really that popular. Daigo is both (now just decent) competitive player and more successful streamer
>>737919723Wow this game actually looks WORSE than I remember. What is wrong with you?
>>737886707It was murdered a long time ago. It's a shame you won't understand the kino of gaming back then. I still watch old KoF13 tournaments just to feel something.
>>737919878Kimberly is supposed to be Guy's replacement, not Ibuki's. I also like Kimberly and her big forehead.
>>737919993It's a similar fighting style tho
>>737886707Fighting games died when tryhards made it all about them. Can you imagine competitive D&D? Wouldn’t work because the point of D&D is to fuck around and get serious every now and then but mostly hang with friends. Same with fighting games. The point should be to dominate and destroy. Nobody cares about your frame-perfect low kick into grab for 0.1 extra point of damage.
>>737920101You have no idea what you're talking about
>>737920101if you play low-mid ranked kino you will have a grand old time, or if you play with a friend. you know you can still play fightng games casually right?
>>737919878personally I dont like how Capcoms or the SF teams solution to weird characters was to waifu-fy them. rule63.>oh shit nobody cares about Abel>turn him into a Brazilian thot>oh shit, nobody cares about our kung-fu hustle ass poison weirdo>make her girl, give her bowl cut>NOBODY PLAYS T-HAWK>make her girl....I like that DeeJay shows some of these chars can be kept the same, they just need a visual rework or a gameplay adjustment to make them a bit more interesting.
>>737920101>Fighting games died when tryhards made it all about themThey died when they started catering to Americans. SF has always been doing that but it was still mainly for the Japanese market back then. Now it's not anymore.
>>737886707They're not this board is just packed to the brim with retards who say the dumbest shit about them like how they're dead every month or how they pander to tryhards/compfags when it is the complete opposite. >>737920049The most they have in common is tangentially being ninjas and that is literally it fool.
>>737920259>sf6 is literally 100x more popular in japan than americawell they did a bad job then
>>737913876Whats this guys name again? what is he known for?
>>737913502I don't care what these mouth breathing retards who can only talk shit say, Daigo risked it all and didn't pussy out. His entire speech in that video was inspirational and he is 100% right
>>737920258If anything SF doesn't have enough waifus. these games always had a lot of weird goofy characters, and only like 2-3 good waifus per game.
What does Daigo even do anymore? He seems completely disinterested in SF6 so what does he do while streaming?
>>737920414>guy is no longer human if he doesn't play his bing bing wahoo gamewow, he acts like he climbs mountains for a living
so, small indie fighters it is then?
>>737920691>he says, while his deal is being an antagonistic faggot in an anonymous Cantonese Watercolors boardLess than zero self awareness.
>>737920691Yes, even the bing bing wahoo game, which gave him more notoriety and success than you'll never have in your entire life.
>>737920807I'm not the one acting all important for being good at videogames.Aracde games are fun, but if you take them too seriously, you start being a weirdo.
>>737883927If he would just switch to SNK games he'd be happy again, but he's a Capcom fanbody to the day he dies.Find one video of him playing a purely SNK game (not CVS). You can't. Does not exist. Also he needs to give up the fucking leverless shit.
>>737920906Being dispassionate is not a personality.Do try to develop an actual personality some time.
>>737921000>thinks he has personality for playing videogamesget a life, kiddo
>Huge success, outselling other big Capcom IPs>Gets less content than every other SF since SF2
>>737920991>If he would just switch to [games he clearly doesn't like to the point that he avoids them] he'd be happyAnother riveting and braindead retarded fighting game post from /v/
>>737921094Or don't develop a personality and keep using being an obnoxious, disingenuous faggot on the Internet as a replacement for that. It's your life.
What fighting games are fun for a casual to play? I remember playing Tekken and Soulcalibur as a kid. Never really got into fightan' that much.
>>737921359What did you like about Tekken and Soul Calibur?There are a couple of currently active fighting games I would recommend to a casual player but the answer depends on what you did and didn't enjoy about the fighting games you've played.
>>737921359mortal kombat are THE casual series, they kinda feel like shit to play if you're experienced though.sf6 is great for casuals, dbfz if you like dbz, granblue is amazing for casuals
>>737921359Every fighting game can potentially be good for casual fun. Hop onto casual mode or the social hubs most games have these days and just play. But if you're looking for a great single player experience, then you won't find any. That's the one area where this genre almost always failed to meaningfully develop.
>>737920881yet he loses to some random fat mutt nobody ever heard aboutthat's pretty embarrassing
>>737908979Football rules change all the time; for example, this World Cup is completely different from the previous one.
>>737921359The most fun fighting game for casual play is Bushido Blade 2 (but only if you have a buddy to play with)
>>737921619>back to back EVO champ is some random dudeYou're speaking only for your retarded, ignorant self here
>>737921619>couldn't even be assed to do a quick wiki search before shitting up a general for a genre of games he obviously doesn't playEmbarrassing.
waitso latinos CLEAR the living shit of the japs?
>>737918128https://youtu.be/5PL5o0ntTTYProbably
>>737920407Philipino Chump.
>>737918535>doesnt even understand the argumentyup thats a nip worshiping brown alright
All you youngsters poking fun at Daigo are going to learn real fast when you hit your mid 30s
street fighter 6 if it was goon
>>737920795yep, see y'all in the pokemon close combat and e's laf 2
>>737922534My assumption was you made a salient point in the first place but I see I was wrong.
>>737898056>VF will save usSega just remembered picrel after spending the last five years milking the worst port of a 20 year old game. And even then, there's no news beyond "look forward to the next update oohwoo!". Expect another Akira vs Stella match, if we get anything at all at Summer Game Fest, because lord knows we ain't getting it at EVOJ.Besides, no one plays VF and they sure as shit won't start with this one.
>>737887256>people are trying to downplay der koomer as honesthas it really gotten that bad?
>>737921359If you want a fighting game that has good onboarding for a casual.-DBZF-UMvC3/MvCIboth these games have universal mechanics that make comboing easier once you understand the fundamental ideas behind them and the extension tools the games gives you. Like you only really need to learn ONE combo and it works on just about everyone and then you are ready to go. the Hard part of these games is going to be finding noobs at your level you can have a non-stomp match against. Highly recc you buy yourself and a friend a copySlime Fighter 6 is actually genuinely okay. Use the "Modern" setting and dgaf what anyone tells you.
>>737896429>>737899328No one plays VF. Everyone knows this. They say they do for that heckin' gamer cred>>737903385This.>>737910621And how's that working out for them?
>>737921545SF6 world tour is good tho.
>>737896134>anime fighters based on fotm ips>shit 3dfg no one actually plays, zero news on the new title beyond "look forward to the newest update"
>>737922643
>>737923014Marvel characters have been popular and relevant for about 5 times the amount of years you have been alive and Avatar has also been well liked for decades, since its inception.How many months need to pass for something not to be """"""fotm""""""" anymore?
>>737911493SF5 is ass, just less green
>>737921545There are people that do nothing in SF6 but training mode in world tour. You need something for retards to latch onto. Literally anything. It's how NRS was so fucking dominate for years because their games WERE single player experiences for everybody that interacted with them.And then the story and extra modes went to shit with MK1. Oops
>>737921545>That's the one area where this genre almost always failed to meaningfully develop.idk if you would call this a fighting game but Did you ever play Star Wars Revenge of the Sith Episode 3? .its fully functional single player experience that would suddenly turn into a fun 1v1 experience every other section. It managed to find a healthy balance between PvE despite being designed mostly as a PvP experience (like Smash Bro's Subspace Emmissary I guess)
>>737923079absolute cuties
>>737887896Such a good movie
>>737920407Fchimp, getting btfod by KBR
>>737921545That's weird most of my hours in BBCF are spent on grim of abyss and replaying the 50 hour story mode. What the, I spent so many times on MOM in +R?
>>737923167>League of Legends is popular and much beloved, guys! Surely there's no harm in making a tranime tag fighter with LoL characters!
reminder that the literal only reason people don't like mena is because he's a fat ugly nigger that's literally the ONLY reasonif he was a Chad you would all be sucking his nuts and making fun of daigo insteadwhy is the fgc like this
>>737923679Ironically Mena also said the only reason people don't play Blanka is because he's an ugly manbeast.
>>737923679Mena is a fat ugly bastard and that's ok because so am I
Why do I have to wait a fucking MONTH to play Ingrid??
>>737923679I don't like him because he's an insufferable faggot with a giant ego but you're not wrong, his appearance doesn't help either.
>>737886707Lovenigga!
>>737923679reminder that the only reason why Daigo is so well liked is because he is handsome like some geek version of jackie chan
>>737923679newsflash: your appearance reflects your personalityugly people mostly also have ugly characters, because they have pudding genes
>>737909290imagine dedicating you heart and soul 100% to a single objective, then getting destroyed.
Why is it that I've spent my entire life dedicating myself to fighting games and they are the only thing I ever cared about and wanted to be good at but I'm a worthless neet still living with my dying parents soon to become homeless instead of a celebrity who can pay to be alive by doing the only thing I am good atwhy
>>737886943I hate the fact that I know exactly which made-up fantasy story LTG is narrating in your GIF.
>>737924330You didn't compete when you could and you don't practice enough now to make up for your decaying reaction speed.You're not even at the PONR. You could dedicate your fucking existence right now and, if you're as good as you should be for dedicating your life to the genre, earn enough money to supplement a 9/5 at some shit shack.
>>737924519I only play 3rd strikeand I stopped entering tournaments after losing to someone I shouldn't have, ruining my whole weekend, and realizing tournaments are unfun dogshit and a waste of money and time
>>737883927How had Daigo held on while so many of the 09ers have faded into obscurity?
>>737924330Because you've spent several years blogposting on this website instead of making any sort of effort towards anything. Don't bother replying with your shitty excuses, nigger.
>>737913187Considering how chronically fat the fgc is I'm shocked Floe is the only well known name dead.
>>737924805meds
>>737917256do thug niggas even exist still?all the new rappers seem a lil zesty
>>737883927uncbros...
>>737923679I literally, literally, don't hate the player. I hate the game. Everything Mena does feels hollow.
>>737917778Street Fighter was always aimed at westerners.
Reminder that SF6 is still better than Turd Strike
only one man can stop Mena now...
>>737923679>if he was a Chad you would all be sucking his nuts most heterosexual fgc unc
>>737886707welcome, more than any other genre people will say fgs or your favourite game are dead because online fgc is a bunch of pussies - never listen to them; if you enjoy it, play it
>>737924686they all got jobs, daigo is financially tied to this
>>737925190do you think iperu knows this incredibly gay pic of him and strider floats around 4chan
>>737883927Meanwhile, Faker (millennial unc) has still been dominating in LoL since 2013, winning 3-4 worlds and dozens of international tournaments.
>>737926592MOBAs require a different set of skills that do not deteriorate as bad as the ones needed for split second decisions.
>>737909290Tokido at that point was the best player in SF5, with an EVO win as well. Well deserved too, because he put in a shit ton of effort. Then he challenged Daigo, his longtime rival and who at that point wasn't really a top player at SF. Everyone thought it would be free for Tokido, but Daigo completely obliterated him in the ft10. Like, it wasn't even close. He was about to close the book on their rivalry but instead he was destroyed by a guy who wasn't even taking SF5 seriously. To Daigo's credit though, he's very good at studying for a ft10 and adapting.
>>737923079If luke was a girl she would be the most popular character in the game by a mile
>>737888792so who are the new gods of sf?
>>737911817>Japanese>avoid alcoholismgood luck with that
>>737920613Drink
>>737926730>>737924328I just watched the set and yet 10-5 it wasn't even that close. I'd be assblasted if I was tokido too. Eerily reminds me of how badly he got manhandled by mena earlier today.
>>737886375
>>737910661because the new era SUCKS
Anyone wanna play 3rd Strike?
>>737886375sudoku.....
>>737927264what's your fightcade
>>737927606I was just joking. I don't play that crap.
>>737908979eh i'd say its more blankas lvl 2 being completely and totally busted. daigo won almost every single first round in the entire set, but once level 2 loop comes online is when he started losing.
>>737927163DRINK
>>737927760Fuck off retard, you are not the one who made that original post.
>Umehara, leave Mena to me
>>737927878Cope. Why would I want to play that rushdown slop?
>>737883927>DaiGOAT loses to some washed up fat niggawho cares, Daigo will be relevant until his deathbed, fatRD already washed at like what? 25?
I am glad that shoto abusing cheeser is out of the scene
Old heads washed the fuck up. Their crackhead heros like Arturo going mentally ill and threatening to murder people on the streets over these results.
>>737928574>ArturoThat shit's heartbreaking to watch
>>737914959All this faggotry really took off in mid-to late 2015Same year when gay marriage got legal and the White House became the Ram Ranch
