Ring of Pride/Power
Music alone on those stages makes me hype.

I really like the dojo and the beach, solely because of how the lighting looks on the characters, and Guile's stage in general just looks great.
The best looking stage is probably the newest one, the grass stage.

Field of Fate is super cool yeah; still so weird that it's listed as a variant on Temple of Ascension even though they share basically zero assets.
I want to like the beach, but the lighting is way too bright for me.
It doesn't help that I main two eye blindingly white characters, Kolin and Falke.

The game is spoiled with great stages. Honda Sento is incredible. The mural clips over the HUD at the end of each match tho. That's gonna bug me forever.
I wish this game had more new stages instead of milking SF2 stages (and the odd Alpha stage) but it does have some good ones regardless. I'm still beyond salty that Capcom never added the stages from story mode. Some of those were so sick.
The story stages are pretty sparse and uninspired tbh. The lighting on some of them is cool, but that's about it.
Also one of the best looking stages.
Agree to disagree on this tbh. I'd much rather have a couple of those stages than a bunch ripped from a previous game in all honesty.
Bustling Side Street, City in Chaos, and the regular night Kanzuki Estate stage are some of the ones I like that haven't been mentioned yet. Would like to get Honda's, but don't feel like spending the FM right now and am less than enthused about spending real money on stages (would also make less sense than using it to get Honda himself first for another character to farm EXP, considering how little FM I have left).
I love that little animation of Poison adjusting her heel after love me tender. I usually despise "zoners" and hated playing her in USF4 because she felt like a tank to control, but I love her so much now...as long as I'm not up against Rashid, Akuma, Laura, and strangely Nash.
No it's a good thing and we need to encourage nostalgia bait so the next game will have remade stages from every version of SF3.

I agree, they're mostly terrible looking. I'm not surprised Capcom ignores them.
Well you see, that would mean Capcom has to cater to SF3 for once
It would be nice if SF6 could remove all NPC from the stages to let them breathe.
I would rebuy all the stages of SF5 if there were variations without the characters. That's the real reason Kanzuki Estate is so good.
Weird that the variations without NPC of City in Chaos and Brasil are still locked to a Shadow Fall.

When you can't do something right for 10 years, maybe the answer is to stop trying.
Hey guys, got a few newbie questions. So, I've been playing this for two weeks now and it's my first time making a serious effort to get good at fighting games. I'm definitely getting better but I kept making it to bronze only to end up getting my ass handed to me a bunch and falling right back to rookie. Last night I had a win streak, though, that got me all the way to super bronze and now I'm kinda confused about where I'm at and where I'm supposed to be. It's not like I had any kind of major breakthrough in my play, so it feels like I just got lucky with matchmaking and will fall back down to rookie immediately. I guess what I'm wondering is how reliable is the matchmaking at pitting you against opponent of a similar skill level?
Sometimes I'll get absolutely trashed and it'll be pretty obvious that the player is a scrub because they're still in bronze and keep repeating the same mix-ups endlessly. They're usually Karin or Mika players and although I still often lose to them, at some point I started catching on to their bullshit and I'm actually getting better at dealing with them! But sometimes I'll get matched with a rookie or bronze player and will be completely and utterly outclassed. Like, I'll try my fucking best and they'll just effortlessly wipe the floor with me lol. Does this game have a big smurf problem?
Oh and I'm curious to hear how other gamepad players use the dpad. I would always slide the tip of the thumb over it but after a week of non-stop playing my thumb hurt so much that I had to spend some time in training mode to build new muscle memory to keep playing. Now I try to keep my thumb centered on the dpad and just kinda rotate it without moving too much. Is that the optimal way to go about it?

There are smurfs, especially with people trying out the new characters. You don't know who is behind those rank badges. They can be much better than what their rank says, but they can also be much worse. Which is why you shouldn't pay much attention to a rank badge and just play your game and focus on improving. If you take a lot of losses and drop back down to Rookie, that will be frustrating, but it doesn't mean you are not improving. Your own rank doesn't say much about how you're evolving as a player either.
It's hard to block that shit out, but try to and just focus on your game.
As a personal anecdote, I've spent the previous year and a half stuck in the same 1,000 LP range, going back and forth between the same two ranks. I was getting better, but it did NOT seem like it. It seemed like I was stagnant. In the past month and a half, I've gained like 5,000 LP, though. I'm not night and day better than what I was two months ago, but the small improvements I've been making have gotten me over the hump. The points come eventually.

Give one of your win-streak matches a re-watch to see what you were doing right and also what you need to improve upon. Maybe your anti-air was on-point or you were punishing your opponents more often.
If you haven't read this already, this reddit thread has a nice list of suggestions on what players from Rookie -> Gold should focus on:
Yeah, I hear you. It's pretty hard not to get frustrated and disheartened when you get utterly destroyed non-stop, though. Hopefully I'll eventually start climbing more steadily like you did. If I can at least eventually get out of bronze altogether and stay there I'll be satisfied, I think.
I've been mostly saving replays for matches that were close calls I lost, hadn't thought about doing it for wins as well. I'll make sure to give it a shot. And thanks for that link, I did search around for some general tips but that one looks very in-depth. I'll give it a read later.
If you keep playing, you will. Guaranteed. The points and the wins will come. In the meantime, celebrate your minor adjustments and improvements. If you start anti-airing jump-ins that used to hit you, or you learn how to punish a certain attack that was giving you problems, that's real progress. So be proud of that and build on it.
Yeah, there's a few holes in my play that I'm already aware of and my current goal is fixing those. I'm decent at anti-air when I can anticipate the jump but otherwise my reaction time is still lacking. I'm also overzealous on the sweeps and often get punished for it. And although I'm getting better at not jumping needlessly, I still panic jump when I need to close in or deal some damage quickly. It's hard to tell how much of a difference fixing those will make but it'll definitely feel pretty good to no longer make those obvious mistakes.
I got my new modem to replace my Puma chipset modem.
Netcode is shit and laggy players are trying to run off with the points after winning a game. 20K really is a cesspool

just watch vesper play. he doesn't even mention laggy games because ass is the normal state. he only starts talking about it when the game is being played right inside the toilet. i would've fizzled out long ago if i was him.
Yeah, I hate how she can just rush down after a throw or a DP or have to guess after her CA.
In online you can forget about out fundamental your opponent and hope you get a knock down.
When the game is laggy, your opponent is literally a halfway ahead of you. You won't see until you see Ken's fierce DP or Bison's feirce because the model and effects are disconnected
Throw loops are a real thing, dealing with dashes and delays are frustrating to deal with.
Some rejected Poison designs:

Happy with how she ended up looking, although I like the camouflage coat. Could work for a "Professional" costume for her.
And of course there had to be a costume with chaps.

I've casually played Street Fighter for most of my life and haven't picked Chun-Li once because I was always intimidated by charge characters but holy hell she's really fun and I'm actually doing pretty well with her.
Also drunk-ordered a hitbox last night after trying to play on my keyboard and loving it.

Heh, that's my experience with her as well. I always thought she was kind of boring and I didn't want to use a charge character, so I never tried using her, not even for trials. Then I bought a Chun-Li themed fight pad and felt obligated to try her out at least once. Now she is one of my favorite characters.
I demand stripper cowgirl to be an alt for her in the future.
I will fund SF6 on Poison costume purchases alone, I'll do it.
Haha, similarly, I bought her SF Alpha costume because I always loved that design and ended up picking her just to see the costume in action. Ended up loving her play style.
Indeed. Also, someone at Capcom was REALLY trying to make chaps in a default outfit a thing.
They should do that... for Ken in SF6. Its the fate the character deserves.
Ken had a Muppet face in SFIV and had alien eyes in his character select screen image in SFV. He has suffered enough.
I'm tired of this sentiment. Sprites are timeless and can be very pretty, but they aren't that interesting anymore. 3D fighting game art styles/animations still have so, so much untapped potential as proven by what Capcom and ASW have accomplished just this generation. Going back would be...regressive. More experimentation and boundary pushing is what this genre actually needs.i just want a new street fighter game with sprite art
But i know that this won't happen for SFVI. So i just hope that they will go with an arc system works 2,5D style like Dragon Ball FIghterZ or Guilty Gear. (but again, this will propably never happen)
I agree that there's very little point in going back to sprites now but I will always prefer the look of Alpha and 3 to 4 and 5. It's not even a contest between the two styles.
