Experimenting with things outside of your comfort zone in fighting games can help you expand your skillset and imagination. I've been seeing a lot of hate against charge characters lately so I wanted to show them some love. I hope you enjoy!

It’s worth noting that charge attacks are often faster or more damaging than regular specials. So the reward is there, but it’s also just fun memorizing the rhythm 👍

@phil4863 Год назад

If chun lis kikoken was fast then she would be able go toe to toe with Ryu hadoken

@eben3357 Год назад

No, they are less damaging but have faster recovery since you've already sacrificed 'time' before the move. Most charge moves are actually weaker. Sonic Boom and Kikoken for example do less damage than Hadoken or Tiger. The reason? Charlie/Guile and Chin-Li get to walk/ move after they've thrown their fireballs while Ryu, Ken and Sagat stay in frame and can be more easily countered.

I recommend chargers, because basic chargers like Guile and Chun force you to have a defence. It won't magically make you GOOD at defence, but when two of your best tools are accessed via turtling you have to do it, a LOT, and you might get better at knowing when to press and when to block.

@gd3air2 Год назад

Sadly that didn't help me at all

@Primitive01 Год назад

Shouldn’t have to permanently block to be able to defend yourself, should be able to block on demand in a split second.. Overly defensive gameplay is alright when you make a living winning in a game where chip doesn’t kill, but for the average player? It’ll never catch on.. I’m just one average player and would never expect a game to be catered towards me, but the main reason I personally don’t play games like SF is because it’s still the same game as it was 30 years ago.. It’s still designed with Japanese arcade as the core focus whereas the actual market available to them has grown humongous and moved from the arcades and into peoples homes.. It’s why games like SF don’t sell anywhere near as much as they could and aren’t anywhere near as popular as they could be.. By not modernising they kind of keep a barrier up for everyone other than the most hardcore fans of the genre.. Play styles, control schemes and the way it’s all built around the arcade as if it’s the early 90s is just doing harm to the series long term.

@808HEAVEN Год назад

@@Primitive01 Except you're COMPLETELY wrong, You don't even realize sf6 made a whole NEW control schemed catered towards incompetent players such as yourself (sorry its true) called "Modern Controls" and it just so happens to be the start of a possible new meta in professional play. A control scheme that (some) high skill players use to react in a split second and a scheme for newer players to access combos they could never do because they don't want to put in the time. I'm talking about hard combos here that would take you a few hours to learn and possibly more if you're fresh in. So maybe check out the newest game it might spark some interest for you and possibly kick start you into classic controls as it did for me

@Primitive01 Год назад

@@808HEAVEN Except I do realise, I’ve played the game ffs.. “I don’t play SF because” and you go on about a game that isn’t even out yet? Big brain.. They’ve also implemented a system that discourages overly defensive gameplay, good for them.. Shame that same system also heavily punishes you for being too offensive as well, back to square one really.. All they really had to do with allow death on chip for all attacks, simple no? Turtling becomes obsolete.. You think I’m incompetent because Capcom spent 30 years making games for arcade while hundreds of millions of people play on console today? The video, the original comment and my comment are all about a system that won’t even exist if modern controls catches on.. You question me because I rightly question the devs when it comes to widening their audience and selling their game to more people without completely changing the game at its core? Good shit.. I probably still won’t play the game no matter the control schemes they implement because I just don’t enjoy SF for reasons beyond outdated controls so go be hurt over your little game somewhere else.. Be proud that it’s taken 3 decades for the devs to realise it’s not the 90s anymore.. I even stated early on in my comment that I don’t expect any dev to cater to what I prefer to try and avoid hurting the feelings of nuggets like you but no, you ignore that shit and act a fool.. There are games I do enjoy and will buy and I won’t be thinking about SF unless like yesterday some random video pops up on RU-vid and I happen to have a look.. Enjoy your game.

Playing a charge character helped me to get better at defense, clean execution and to be patient. I was a very sloppy shoto-player. Never looked back.

@blacklite911 Год назад

My favorite charge character was M Bison. Psycho crusher and scissor kick are great examples. He was great in SF5. How his walk speed is slow but his dash is the fastest and a teleport. They really made it like he’s conserving all of his psycho power for specific explosive moments. It makes you play very precise. He’s just always plagued by less than ideal antiairs

@richarddavis8863 Год назад

I used to main him in CvSNK2 and MY GOD I’ll never forget the first time I pulled off a Mega Psycho Crusher. I’d been trying for ages, finally did a deep exhale, nailed the input, the screen goes dark and he blasts across the stage taking up most of the screen. Was at my buddy’s apt and we had a bunch of friends over and they were all losing their shit, hype af, patting me on the back. It was such a beautiful moment and that’s when I truly understood what the line “This is the True Love we’re making” meant

@videofudge 11 месяцев назад

@peteking01 11 месяцев назад

For me, it was Balrog. Something about the Dash Straight or Dash Low being threatened by the same charge, and the way you need to pre-plan your combo routes so that you will have charge, while at the same time just being a big dude throwing punches was really really satisfying.

@speedypichu6833 11 месяцев назад

Honestly, I think the thing that originally made me turn off from charge characters, was the fact I did not know they were charge characters, as for a long while my only fighting games were Smash (in general 3 of them) MK11 and SFII. The thing is that I didn’t know what the charge display meant, so I thought it was just broken since it was similar to a scorpion spear and wouldn’t come out. I eventually learned watching the core a gaming video about Ryu v. Guile, and that leads to here after like 1-3 years.

@Wiziliz Год назад

I never liked the idea of playing charge characters until I picked up Granblue and was determined to learn Charlotta, and I learned pretty much the basics to how to use a charge character properly through her trials and using her online! This was an awesome video and a great explanation of charge characters and why they're so cool! Another more obscure charge character that I think is super cool is Saki from Arcana Heart, as rather than having a defensive playstyle like most charge characters, she's actually meant to have a much more aggressive and rushdown playstyle, and also has a charge dive kick in the air like Vatista if I remember correctly!

As someone that is trying to love Charge characters, it feels like something is missing for me to have that click of "Wow, that's cool to do!" because i like to watch another one doing consistently At the moment i am playing Third Strike and i'd love to have a 2nd character with another new archetype to train, but it's so inconsistent and strict, that everytime i try to do what's in my mind, i just die because my character just fumbled the bag jumping instead of doing the charge. i am trying new things like Grappler playing with Hugo and right now i'm trying to learn Q, but the lack of feedback of charge moves in fighting games i tried (Skullgirls, KoF, SF3) just don't ring the bell

@qmanchu Год назад

At the end of the day, play what you like! But it's great that you at least tried and you've got an understanding of how they work. Charge Characters aren't for everyone. But if you can say with confidence that you feel you gave it your best shot, maybe some other charge character down the line will make you feel right at home

@fgchopper4733 Год назад

What helped me get into charge characters was using characters who have charge moves which are primarily neutral tools like Leo from Guilty Gear and Chun Li. Having access to motion moves when I have to execute a combo but still getting the chance to practice charging in match scenarios when I'm in neutral or running oki and have more time to think made me a lot more comfortable with charging in general.

@TheEpicPancake 6 месяцев назад

I've always been a big fan of charge characters. I feel it's common to see more creativity involved with creating movesets cognizant of the downsides of charges. It's good that it's given the respect it deserves given how drastically they can alter the character's match flow. It also just feels very satisfying to always be building an invisible and metaphorical gun in your pocket. Especially Vatista's ability to constantly be prepping anywhere between one to three things with any given action, which really shines brightly in her combo game.

@TheWordPlay Год назад

Really great video! I don't main any charge characters, but I find that executing charge inputs forces me to slow down and put more thought into my neutral and combos. Played Guile for the first time in the SF6 beta and was surprised at how fun he was!

@caiooa Год назад

This is a really cool and interesting video, hope i can see more of those love letters to fgs in the future. One thing i would like to add in the topic is "turn around punch" style of moves like Balrog's. It is such a interesting concept to "pay the price" playing with less normals and then surprise your opponent with a invul/high damage move that can totally turn the tides. Meitenkun on this video have something intermediary between a TAP and a normal charge .... his rush move and his antiair powers up depending on how long he is holding the direction. It is kinda of a reference to his/terry's master (Tung) that have a move buffed by how many taunts he used in sequence (clean his bald head > scratch his ass > sleep ).

I learned to love charge characters thanks to the specific mechanics of the game they were in: Killer instinct (both classic and 2013) Picking up Sabrewulf and Riptor it is very cool how those charge moves work with the combo system, being able to get your opening, do your linkers while holding back, then doing the move you need felt honestly pretty damn cool.

@thegouge4284 Год назад

My favorite implementation of charge specials has to be Cerebella's tumble run in skullgirls.

For people new to fighting games like me, it's helpful to know a lot of combo moves and specials actually give you charge automatically while you're doing them. I was put off because timing combos while juggling charge seemed almost impossible to me but it's much easier than it sounds unless you're doing those insane optimal combos in which case it's pretty much as hard as any characters really hard combos

I'm not going to automatically pick a character based on whether they're a motion input character or a charge one, but now I don't have the restriction of "not being able to" play charge characters and that opens up a lot of cool ones that I've always wanted to use.

I think a unique case of using charge moves is Deejay. The way he plays in sf2 and alpha (not sf4, they done him dirty there) is to play on the offensive and utilize the rhythm of his combo structure, playing into his DJ persona. And this is only going to be furthered in sf6, with moves requiring rhythmic inputs and precise timing.

I main Chun since SF2. There has been time when I wished her moves aren’t charged like kikoken and tensho kicks but I do enjoy that challenge and high technicality in charge characters and as you called out - it’s almost always intentional to throw out that move and not a by-accident hadoken.

Dunno why this got dumped into my recommended suddenly, but I love this off-the-cuff talk about charge characters. I'm never gonna be into charge characters; I am a fan of the simple to execute, complicated to master characters that the archetype almost never can really apply to. However, I have a ton of respect for the archetype because in a number of ways, it's a homage to the chess element of competitive fighters. You need to be thinking ahead on how you can best maintain charge and be ready to use them when the opportunity presents itself--no sooner or later will suffice. There is a lot to love in seeing it unfold.

Great content. You put some deep cuts in there as far as fighting games go. I love it. If you like far out fighting games, give Rumble Fighter a shot. Ignoring all of the nonsense in the game, the 1v1 scene is actually pretty good.

Word! I just looked it up and it looks crazy

@@qmanchu again, I love this game, but I'm specifically talking about the 1v1 scene. There is poor balance elsewhere throughout the game, but the 1v1 scene is the equalizer

@@qmanchu oh, and you can play it on stick too

I've always had a respect for charge characters after learning how they work. It takes a level of concentration that I wasn't used to and forces you to think ahead so that you know what options are available at any given point. I've only ever really given Boxer an honest try since I like boxing and like Mike Tyson lol

Lifetime charge enjoyer here from SF2 in the arcades to me anxiously awaiting Honda in SF6. Charge always appealed to me because it sometimes requires a bit of extra planning and forethought.

I always loved the challenge of trying to 'keep up' in a fireball war against a motion character whilst having the handicap of needing to charge :p

Great video! I started with Vega in SF. Learned everything about charge with Vega and never touched other characters for years. Eventually I picked up grapplers and other charge characters, including Honda. In fact I generally enjoy playing all charge characters, including Hodan. Ryu and Ken were too bland looking for me and the idea playing with their basic specials also didn't interest me. For a while, Cammy was really the only character with normal motions that I enjoyed playing.

I remembered playing Street Fighter II on SNES at my friend house back in the days. He has a Japanese instruction booklet that came with the game. We got the hadoken and shoryuken down with the instruction, however, for Guile, back then Japanese letters and then forward and punch. We can't figure out what that letter meant and we only do it sometimes after taking a deep breath.

I've been enlighten by this video that shows why charge character is so awesome and complex, i love how the video formatted and edited, really great job of convincing me to not play charge characters ever. The biggest gripe for me personally about charge characters is that i don't want to count every nanosecond of my charge time to get those frame perfect charge move for specific situation (this sentence is a hyperbolic of course i don't have to count every nanosecond), the second factor is that most of charge characters is a turtle and i don't like those playstyle, i love moving around looking for opportunities and being active in the combat, that's why i mostly play Shotos or Rushdown characters like Ryu, Ken, Juri, Makoto(arguably), and Marisa, charge characters is just not for me personally because i tried to get into the bandwagon countless time with many characters and i can't do it, I can't play charage characters because they're just not for me. Really Great Video tho 👌

Yeah it's not for everyone. All I ask is that everyone try it. You never know what you might find. I'm really glad you liked the video

I've been going through SFV trials lately, challenging myself to clear all of them, I might Say that the charge characters ones are sole of the most challenging I've been through but tbh, it felt really good and rzlly satisfying to complete them (I MEAN, those Flash kick cancel Into Sonic hurricane are making me Dick but when it lands, it feels so good)
