Putting a few rounds in so as to not be a total pushover.
@âtomjonjonâ#p117188 oh, uh, I should have put this in the rules but practicing is banned.

I don't remember seeing her in the leaks haha
@âantilleseâ#p117337 I'd like to take my case to the IC Fighting Game Commissioner.
Patrick Miller is busy with Xrd, and Ken Masters isn't returning my calls. Sorry!!
The practice made no difference - I need some performance enhancing drugs.
@âtomjonjonâ#p117467 Whatever buddy! You beat me repeatedly!
For those of you who didn't attend, we had a fantastic time! Thanks to the nearly dozen of you that came by even for a bit! It was a chill bunch of people playing games, watching other people play games, learn new characters, remembering that Makoto's Karakusa is on K instead of P (that's when I got way better at my Makoto) and doing real-time drinks checks.
PSA that _Street Fighter 6_ comes out next week and has cross-play so don't worry about which platform you get it on, you can come join the _SF6_ Fight Nights for Credit Inserters.
Just paid my respects to @exodus by getting 7th in the Combo Breaker Asuka 120% Limit Over bracket. I'm in the audience watching finals right now.
@âCreekgrinâ#p117487 was it all the expected characters? I would've liked to go just to represent ryuko.
I also heard there was hyper gunsport play in the mystery 2 v 2, but nobody took a picture of it ;_;
@âexodusâ#p117542 Cathy was represented in top 3 by Skytanks! there was a decent variety actually.
Previous guest of the show Jeff Gerstmann thinks that SF6 is pretty good.
I've no idea how lobbies and cross platform in this work - all I can find is info on the superfluous stuff in the battle hub. Anyone have any idea?
I'm getting the Steam version and I'd be up for some games in the IC stream if I can make the timezone commitment.
@âLeFishâ#p117773 If itâs anything like the beta, youâre automatically in cross play, unless you specifically ask for only same-platform matches.
I played cross platform with people, we just said "meet you in NA lobby 0121" or whatever. They'll probably have private lobbies in the full release, but I'd assume cross platform stuff is always integrated.
The private lobbies most likely have a search and password function, that's the standard.
Like we'd name a lobby "ICgoonies" and the password would be "ALEXANDER" or whatever. But if all else fails, just find a lounge that's relatively empty and populate it with peeps!
I absolutely cannot wait for SF6 on Friday. Who is everyone gravitating towards maining? I didnât get the chance to play the beta, but I plan on maining Kimberly and Iâm sure she'll click with me because I tend to gravitate towards rushdown characters in general and I have mained Guy in the Alpha series, Yang in Third Strike, and Zeku in V and she seems to have a similar playstyle.
@âHeavenlyHalberdâ#p117938
I didn't get to play the demo so I haven't had any time with any character that isn't Luke. I am an old-school Dee-Jay enjoyer and am planning to enjoy Dee-Jay. Also, Kimberly is dope as hell and anyone who says otherwise is probably a cop.
@âantilleseâ#p117941 Dee Jay is the one character I can actually play competently in Super Turbo. I canât play Fei Long despite being a rushdown guy because all versions of SFII, even Super Turbo, have this very âheavyâ feel to me compared to Alpha and beyond, mainly because of shorter combos and higher general damage. Iâm interested in playing him in a modern context. I never really tried him out in IV but it's been an eternity since I played IV. And heck yes, Kimberly rocks!
@âHeavenlyHalberdâ#p117943 I used to play Dee Jay in Super and Alpha 3. I was just so so confused when I bought 30th Anniversary Collection and Dee Jay wasn't in it. Was I hallucinating? No, he was just a console exclusive character.
Iâve only had time to play Street Fighter 6 for a handful of hours so far, but Iâve been blown away. This feels like the first real evolution and boldest take of Street Fighter since III and itâs completely lived up to my hype. Kimberly clicked perfectly with me and I like her moveset and feel even more so than her Bushinryu predessecors in Guy and Zeku. Itâs gonna take me a while to get used to the Drive Impact. I love it, but because Iâm so used to playing SF a certain way I keep getting punished horribly just trying to poke and hit confirm. Itâs such an excited new mechanic.
