r/StreetFighter

So I've been playing a ton of ranked in Japan / Seoul the past 2 weeks, and I have to say the difference in NA vs Japan is probably a tier difference. A Diamond 4/5 in NA = Diamond 3 mid in Japan. I was Diamond 5 in NA, but got demoted to Diamond 3, and have been struggling to get back to up 4 here. There a lot of smurfs / masters players you are up against that are just pulling every champ to master, and then the Alex's. But generally speaking, their neutrals / footsies and mechanical skill seems higher. Also it feels like they play much smarter and adapt quicker. However, also they generally do one and done and move on so as to not give you the second game to adapt. They aren't big risk takers and are very conservative. I'm sure if you one and done everytime, it's easier to climb.

I got this game in late February and finally hit my goal of gold. Now obviously I’m gonna try to keep elevating however I was trying to decide if I want to give Cammy a break for a bit and try some other characters in ranked. So how often do you guys charge it up?

Just to get this out of the way, I have Never been influenced by who's Top Tier ok.

in SF6, I was a Zangief main until yesterday (Sagat Secondary)

in SFV I mained Chun Li throughout.

Anyway, my new Main..Oh my..It's M BISON!

I feel like I've outgrown regular Street Fighter. Not that my skill level has left humanity behind, no. Just that, Honest Street Fighter I am done with.

I learned footsies when I used to main Chun. I learned defence and grappling when maining Gief, including hard reads etc. Zoning when playing as Sagat.

But now I like characters that break the rules. And M Bison is so Naughty. I feel excited and smug when playing as him. I love his guessing game when he flies up (Headstomp/Demon Reverse), I love that his Psycho Crusher can go through fireballs (or at least the EX version. I love the "plant-the-bomb" aspect. The menacing oppression just gives me braingasms.

I know he's high tier atm, but this has NOTHING to do with my decision. It's purely the mobility and overall playstyle I love. The long sliding sweep. I just wish they gave him access to his Horizontal teleport (which cannot be used in multiplayer sadly).

But yea, Bison main here. share your thoughts. Advice, Humour/Banter, Warnings..I'm here for it all x

Title, basically. Took SF6 back up two month ago because of a video on the FGC on French Youtube, and finally worked my way up to Master (or the true ladder if i understand right)

But I would clearly still be Diamond if not for the many pieces of advice I got from y'all on here, so thanks, great community :)

Now to win EVO at the end of the year /s

I've been waiting for them to be added but am getting paranoid that I'm going to miss them so does anyone know when they're going to be added? Thanks guys!

Just for clarification, I’m defining “win poses” as the animation your character makes after winning a round, not winning the whole match.

For me, it’s gotta be Alex. The way he just stares down at his opponent’s broken body after winning with a CA is too cold.
