this game is NOT PURE SKILL it's poker/gambling fighter

50/50 throw loops, drive rush that discourages neutral play, moves that have + frames for days for certain characters and frame traps that skips opponents turns. all encourages unga bunga gameplay. the only reason people lose at lower ranks is mainly knowlege not skill that's it really. if they learned more they'd rank up. if you play enough games you'll rank up because it's a casino by design by this game

people need to quit acting like your a warrior with honor in this game when this game is simply not as skilled based like previous titles. WHY DO YOU THINK THERE ISN'T AN OFFICIAL DOMINANT PLAYER IN SF6? Because the game is now luckbased reads not reaction and mechanical skill

not the game's fault you're bad at it. There are solutions to everything you complain about.

Yeah, hopefully Capcom finally makes some actual changes to the game. Another season of throw loop sim sounds awful.

"If they learned more, they´d rank up" Actually you are right. It is actually truth in everything in life. But I dont know what your issue is. Should it be like if you learn less and forget what you´ve learned, then you should actually rank up or what?

Find me a fighting game that doesn't have you making guesses at regular intervals.

Compared to the other two 2D fighters I play when time allows (GG Strive & GBFV:R), SF6 is relatively honest.

And fighting games have always been this, as far as I can tell, unless you're going as far back as the early-mid 90s when none of these concepts were yet codified.

Nah bro older fighting games were way more honest, just trust. Getting put into a 50/50 every time Yun neutral jumped in SSF4 is ye olde honest neutral SF6 lacks.

Dont even get me ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ started on third strike yun

Which ones? What was the last "honest" fighting game, or what's a modern "honest" fighting game?

Only modern one that springs to my mind is Samurai Shodown. If we have to go back to the early/mid 90s to find examples, then it's reasonable to say that SF6 is not uniquely responsible for being a game with guessing in it, as all modern fighting games do that.

Wow. Less knowledgeable players will lose to more knowledgeable players?

You're right, that's just like a casino.

Honestly watching many pro matches end in a throw loop is literally indication of abusing the system and not actual skill, im sorry i can't agree with you. Frame trapping idk how to feel about it because on one end if you burn out, thats on you.... on the other end should somone simply lose because of burn out? Im not the one to decide that, ill let a pro decide that one.

There is alot of unga bunga play in this game and im actually pretty certain if i played an older variant of sf...... my skills would mean nothing in those games. I wish there were more combos outside drive rush that did make neutral more important overall. Yes there are answers to most of what hes complaining about, but the throw loops i can't agree with you because the pros struggle with it too with money on the line.

To be honest everyone has a ceiling that they will hit otherwise we would all be pros.

Mai i'm going to tell you as a playable character obviously from a business choice was a good choice. Her design and how easy they made her play = bad choice, has to be maybe the easiest character in the game by far.

People who simply say having knowledge will rank you up is just blatantly lying to you. You need both and knowledege pretty much implies skill because you still have to be able to use said knowledge to your advantage. Some people think an average person going through the ranks will hit masters by just sweeping/jabbing/ .... its just not gonna happen.

Throw loops need to go.
