Worst Matchups

[Mrgrump]

which character do you guys have the most hardest time with? (besides mika) For example ken and laura are my worst. Everything about these characters just bugs me...especially ken with the random dp's.

Ken is the easiest character to fight against. The more you fight against ken the easiest it gets, you just have to learn to block. He has very few tools to work, you can down block most of his attacks and most will start jumping a lot if you block. his overheads are too slow so just spect down attacks, jumping and trows.
I play ken and i can easily win most first matches after the 3rd+ they start figuring how to stop ken.

-The ones that give me the hardest time are dhalsim and fang. Not many people play them so, i don't know what to do against their attacks.

Cammy and Birdie,I main Nash

[eyeamtom]

Rashid main here. Bison and necalli are an absolute nightmare for rashid, once a decent player has control with them its disgustingly hard to fight back

[Gaxkang]

Chun Li, Ryu, Karin. When they know what they're doing.

Zangiefs sometimes too.

In terms of what I feel are kosher fights. I mean, I think.

I been playing as Ryu and Mika lately.

That is a real key thing with Ken yeah...either blocking or the blocks going thru. Otherwise you get these pretty easy explosions of damage...combinations with the constant shoryuken.

And a laggy Ken, well, ow. ;)

But I find Ryu harder to deal with.

Had a funny fight with a Ken as Mika...in beginning he got me with like 3 kick combo and a CA (maybe there was a special cancel, I forget), took half my life...still was able to win though.

I play Laura and the worst MUs for me are Chun and Gief followed by Karin and Cammy. Chun can simply stop everything I do and Gief can grab me on reaction both on whiff and on startup during many of my moves because my pokes are not fast and make me move forward. In general, any character with good neutral and AA on point can give me issues.

@OP: maybe it would've been better if you told which character do you main.

Cammy

Honestly for me it's more of mental thing. It's not only SFV. In every street fighter that I've played I always dread playing against others Ken's.

Playing Bison - worst matchups: Laura, R.Mika, Rashid, Ken, Cammy...defensive chars like Bison have a big disadvantage in this game since you win this game by going in and Bison has a billion lacks of basics in this game. Also his defensive sucks.

[LucasNava]

zangief, birdie, necalli and dhalsim, as cammy player, is almost impossible for me deal with this characters.

Let me tell you a secret. They're no problem.
Against Zangief is the most fun MU of the game, trust me it's awesome.

Bad MU's. Well if I get beaten by something I tend to go into the lab and figure out how to beat it or try to learn it by fieldexperience.
I have a hard time against stuff I don't know or haven't figured out jet, this isn't characterspecific.
Well maybe Ken wins the cup,but there's actualy no character who would come to my mind.

Nash player here
i hate karin. I have so much trouble punishing her.
I also really dont do well against guile or ibuki but thats more me not fighting them enough to know how to beat them.

[MonkeyBizNiz]

Nash and Laura...

Truth for me also...

Punish any and all blocked specials with meter drain (Back Knee into Light Tragedy Assault for example). If they like to do medium or hard versions of Mujinkyaku, you can jab before the append. attack I believe, otherwise there's no reason to stop blocking high and punish the attack afterwards. For a blocked Ressenha, either jab and follow through or block low if they fudge up and went for the low kick anyway, then punish, if they opt for the throw, she'll just vault over you while blocking low, punish with what you like when she lands.

"defensive char"
>no 3f jab
>no reversal
>basically has to rely on VRev to get out of every situation
