The real issue with it is that SF doesn't have much throw protection. If it worked like most other fighters where there's like 4-6f of throw protection instead of 2f, grapplers could be given more tools to compensate for strike vs command grab no longer being a true 50/50 due to fuzzy defense options.
@ShinUltima
@ShinUltima 2 месяца назад
@@chungusumungus4004 There's 2F of throw protection in SF6? I thought since SFIV there's been 0F throw protection (on wake up). It's why throw loops exist now. I absolutely think throw protection (which was in _every Capcom fighter before SFIV_ ) on wake should come back. Gets rid of throw loops, also makes wake up pressure less oppressive and less of a pure guessing game. Hell, I'd take throw protection after hit/block stun like in CvS2 as well, but that might be a bit much. But I _really_ want it back on wakeup.

I disagree that it is entirely Abigail's fault, though you are right that the rancor over the character was severe. People complained early and often about Zangief in SF4 too. Green hand was slain forever because of its power in SF4. The hatred was more palpable for Abi because he was a new SF character (even if an ancient Capcom character) and he is also a very over the top character aesthetically. The elephant in the room is that grapplers are never meant to be top tier characters in SF. If they happen to have some powerful tools it is in spite of the devs intentions and whenever it happens it is a virtual guarantee that the grappler will be nerfed soon thereafter. I'm not sure exactly of the reason why "grapplers must be terrible" is a sacred cow in SF, but the tradition continues to go strong with the Red Cyclone being at or towards the bottom of the heap in SF6.

I am hoping season 2 address this. While drive rush and throw loops have gotten the highlight, but there's also a very strong correlation between anti air capability and tiering/placements right now. If the AKI lunge being a proper frame 1 anti projectile is true, I can only hope that Capcom is buffing those "X invulnerable" type moves throughout the cast which X should include air.
@harryf9885
@harryf9885 2 месяца назад
True, if you are struggling with Marisa anti-airs I recommend charging light Gladius for same side and letting go as soon as you see that you armored something. It’s pretty rewarding and lets you react much later than with crouch heavy if you can do the move fast. Unfortunately it isn’t as rewarding is crouch H and empty jump throw can be a little challenging, though if you react at a specific range of timings the throw will get counterhit by the full charge version which will make them reconsider their life choices. Unfortunately, the big problem comes if you don’t react early enough to a potential crossup. Then you have to go for a perfect parry and pray. I really hope they give her and Gief something better to deal with crossups. Gief they just need to revert their dumb lariat change but they probably won’t.

I'm actually fine with Gief needing to Drive Rush after SPD for oki too. I'm less fine, however, with how he has to burn all his Drive just to get in and do a single combo that doesn't even do that much damage. He's way too dependent on meter to do anything in SF6 and half the time it still doesn't work (EX lariat getting stuffed by jump-ins, level 1 super whiffing, level 2 super getting blocked as a reversal and even as a fireball punish).

With the word that they are potentially nerfing Honda's tools, I'd be interested to see what you think of playing him (I think he might be the worst character in the game). Gief needs more things to do with his drive rush. I think he will be aided by some of the system changes and the few reported changes will help. But he is dominated by good rushdown and strong zoning, when piloted by people that know what they are doing.

@dodang_9147
@dodang_9147 2 месяца назад
@@lolozo214 why? he works just fine. i am pretty sure he was designed to be something like a meter burn grappler with normal combos. His headbutt is suppose to drain meters, you go into burn out and than he uses his normal to get ++ frames to use his command grab. that's basically the idea behind honda. What is the issue? He doesn't do that. First, everyone will attempt to perfect parry his headbutt so his "meter loss" strategy doesn't function to get people into burn out and the other aspect is that his neutral game is total trash. He's not playable when the opponent has meter gauge. Most if not all his regular moves are worse then counter-part of other characters. Another aspect is that i don't see many honda's use his command grab. Maybe it doesn't do enough damage but people wilfully ignore the move. He's a character that just simply needs buffs until people realize his strengths then he might turn broken so the point that SF6 might need nerf him. This happens with a lot of character like that.

Luke, Ken, Juri, DJ, etc. (not in order) can consistently execute their game plan (sometimes on auto pilot) while others like Ryu, Gief etc. have to be so planful on spacing and quick in game decisions just to get simple stuff like proper advantage from whiff punishes (i.e, Ryus best whiff punish is his sweep (due to distance)..But he isn’t an oki character so….), BnB combs (Luke has 100 combo routes for all his supers, they all get oki, etc. Why?), and damage. Great breakdown vid Broski.

Rather than saying the tier list doesn't matter for 95% of players, I would argue that the tier list changes from skill level to skill level, or perhaps even from player to player. If you're a beginner player, and you don't know how to avoid getting command grabbed by Zangief, then Zangief becomes the best character in the game, because he only needs to command grab you three times to beat you.

This 100%. This is my first Street Fighter and I only buy fighting games if there are at least two characters that look cute or cool to me (Ragna & Litchi: BlazBlue, Mila & Diego: DOA, etc). For SF6 that was Kimberly and Cammy, so I choose to main both of them. I tried Kimberly first because red being my favorite color and man did it get much harder when I got to Gold ranks with her. I ended switching to Cammy and it was night and day. So when people say tier list don't matter, I'm just like really cause most people put Kimberly bottom 5 and I only got to Gold 3 with her until I switched to Cammy (who some people put in the mid 7s) and got to Platinum with ease.

You're not really talking about the same thing. You're actually kind of proving his point. If you're losing to Zangief because you don't understand the matchup, you are part of the 95% that tier lists don't matter for. It's true that some characters have a pretty high floor for basic operability, with simple game plans that are easy to implement. They can also have very low ceilings for optimal play, which becomes evident when both people are playing their characters optimally. If both players are not playing optimally, then tier lists have very little value.

@@DragonK-rt3uh It's easier to get away with little matchup knowledge, execution, etc at lower levels with stronger characters because your opponents don't know that much either. While it's true that some characters have more effective tools and plans than others, that does not imply that improvement is linear, and your rank will only get higher as you choose 'stronger' characters. Strong tools will give you a false sense of improvement, despite the pretty rank number going up. What good is your plat cammy when you face a gief or honda that legitimately knows and has practiced the matchup? How would a tier list then apply to YOU in particular?

Saying the tier list changes based on skill level is a little bit more enlightening and accurate to reality, I think. If low level players tend to struggle with Zangief, then that means Zangief is a high tier character at low level. Pretty simple concept, I think.

​​​@@guitaroachHow it implies to me, well it depends on the format of the tier list and who is making the tier list. Most video tier lists I watch gives a reason why a character was place in a certain tier and explains their strengths and weakness, also how that character plays. I also watch a ton of tier lists from respected players and CC in the FGC (Diaphone, Punk, Brian_F, Max, fighting select, etc); from all these tier lists you usually can see a pattern of which characters are the strongest and with this information I usually can guess which characters most people will flock to and who I should spend more time Labbing against. So what I'm trying to say is a tier list can be very informative to me and help me improve my game knowledge.

8:57 I think there’s a lot more complexity to this issue than just saying that tiers do or don’t matter for most levels of play. It’s not that tier lists don’t matter at levels beside the high level, it’s that the tier lists are different at different levels of play. Honda in this game is a tremendous example of my point. At the tournament level he isn’t strong at all. But at a low level he is the best character in the game. As an addendum to this, you then immediately go on to mention inconsistencies that will absolutely affect almost every level of play. Sure, it maybe isn’t the same thing as the pro level tier list mattering, but weaker players are weaker players precisely because they lack the ability to work around some of these inconsistencies.

He gets absolutely rolled by rushdown but also absolutely rolled by zoning. This leads him to be in a wierd place where he's supposed to get in but can easily loose that to a lot of characters even on the defensive. He has a lot of good tools but a lot of them also do not work (lariat in combos and anti fireball, m.p TC flat out missing on hit, etc).

I agree his SPD oki is fine but what I don't like and its something I'm really sad you didn't talk about is how many of his moves just don't have a use. Suplex for example should be the command grab that gets decent oki, right now you get a dash up standing light kick but you still have to burn a drive rush to get anything after that. Which sounds better because with SPD you have to burn a bar to get in and a bar after drive rush but SPD doesn't side swap you and put you in the corner, it also doesn't have 10 FUCKING FRAMES of start up and its range isn't literally point blank. If the move is going to be that fucking slow and that close range (so much so that you often push people outside the range with even a fucking jab on block) then it should have some tangible use over SPD. His other moves are like this 2, running bear grab isn't that great you can sometimes use it to catch people sleeping after a standing light kick but not often. At least let his EX bear grab have armor close range after like frame 3 - 5 so he can armor through some move, make it only upper body armor on strikes so lows and projectiles blow through it if you want it to have some downsides. Just anything to make that move have some utility. The less said about Tundra Storm the fucking better.... But its also a lot of his normals as well.... Like you touched on how utterly useless his C.HP is but he has other normals like this. For example his command normal 3 HK the grounded drop kick, I think this move is suppose to be used to try and crush lows when they are in the corner but there are better options and it being so unsafe means its never going to be used. I have landed this maybe once in over a thousand games. Then you have his stomps which is by far the coolest fucking command normal he has. I love this move so much, which makes it all the more shitty that its so fucking useless. The only thing you see this used for 999 out of a 1000 is to frame kill your 3 throw. His flying headbutt is also kind of shit, in SFV this was an okay move because it did way more stun than any other air normal but with stun gone its not doing anything meaningful. It does have a neat effect where its special cancelable so you can OD air SPD after landing it. But because it has 8 frames of startup and air SPD only has 4 you are better off just doing air SPD because those 4 frames of start only really ever gets you hit when trying it. I also think Charging your Jump HK should make it safe on block, give it massive push back or something. Its so easy to anti air if its not it should at least be safe, also make it wall bounce on normal hit as well rather than just counter hits. So many of giefs stools just flat out dont work or do nothing and it sucks.

Everybody seems to think that saying a tier list doesn't affect them is some kind of personal attack, when I'd argue the existence of no definitive tier list shows that the highest level players are aiming it towards themselves; we have no single tier list because we are not (and cannot be) at the theoretical limit, therefore we make tierlists based on the [biased] opinions of the people who are as close to where we are currently. This is why it doesn't matter to anyone in e.g. gold - it technically isn't accurate for anyone at any rank, however it's the closest thing we can get to accurate, and those players are the closest things we have to perfect play. It also explains why tier lists are different between players, they are always slightly biased.

the idea is tier lists only matter when skill level is equal, not just at top level (you think that cuz you are at the top) but tier lists also change from skill level to another. Cuz there is potential and ease of execution to count for

Being “Finicky” is definitely not something that Gief should be lol. Like really not in character for him. He is supposed to be a sledgehammer of a character. like he should have l at least one decent short combo into a knockdown that works in absolutely every situation where he can land the starter. You don’t play Gief to worry about the microspacing of your buttons and which of 5 different followups to try to go for from the same starter depending on where you hit it.

9:13 I disagree. Tier lists not only matter at the top lv. They matter when players are of, or close to, equal skill level.That's when character tools have more of an impact on the outcome. A high lv. player will trounce a new/low lv player, regardless of the matchup. However, if two players in Gold (for ex) are of equal skill, the player using Ken, or DeeJay, or whatever will have an easier time winning than the Gief or Lily player will.

I made it to platinum as gief. When I was gold the cracks started showing, and by platinum one everyone knows what giefs weaknesses are. Trying to get out a corner is a frustration, the anti air issue becomes unavoidable, being forced to spend meter constantly to get in etc.

@WutTheDeuceGaming 2 месяца назад
a lot of Gief's combo issues have to do with his piss poor DR not covering distance well at the start. I get where you're coming from with his oki off of SPD being structured, but what does that matter when "you have to be prepared for things to wrong all the time"? The way his oki is structured in this game off SPD makes no sense due to his inconsistencies. It actually works AGAINST him due to all the things you talked about.

@chungusumungus4004
@chungusumungus4004 2 месяца назад
You get pretty solid Oki with Drive Rush > 6MK. After the regular version, you're plus enough to enforce another mixup on block or combo into 3MP on hit. OD version is weird and has slightly different timing, but it builds a ton of meter and is good for closing out rounds after a DI crumple since it, like OD SPD, only counts as 1 hit in a combo unlike the regular versions. But it really sucks if you're putting yourself in the corner and the actual range/speed of the grab is abysmal (tiny range + 10f startup on top of needing a proximity trigger). Buff one aspect of it (speed, range, or Oki/positioning), possibly two, and it gets a lot better. My preference is buffing the range and letting him side swap back over if he puts himself in the corner.
@PsylentMourning
@PsylentMourning 2 месяца назад
I am one of those players where Tier Lists don't matter, and I agree with a lot of your takes here. Namely, Meter gain ( I don't think his kit allows for it) and consistency. I think the biggest thing you missed, and I think it took me a lot of time to see this, is that there are a few ranges in neutral where he has too many redundant tools. For example, what is the point in neutral of MK? It has a little bit more range S-Mp and basically the same range as C-MK but is 1 frame slower. I don''t think that problem is exclusive to gief, but I think for an archetype (slow grappler) his pokes are crucial to his gameplan and should have better variety to his tools if not just better pokes.

@ProjectH1980 2 месяца назад
Headbutt is DI Cancellable you just have to do it slightly early because sometimes it doesn't come out in time as a DI Reversal. Standing Heavy Armor Break? It already beats DI if timed correctly and if you react fast enough. It should be more like both versions of Lariat should Armor Break. Especially when regular Lariat is a Multi hit move but loses to DI? Yet Marisa's Gladius breaks armor no matter the button used.

@kevingriffith6011 2 месяца назад
I understand *why* capcom is hesitant to give a grappler an invincible reversal. When a grappler has an invincible reversal it makes running offense on them feel *terrible*. What's the standard play against invincible reversals? Bait and punish, right? If you guess wrong no harm no foul, you take no damage because the worst that can happen is you block or shimmy their throw. With a grappler if you opt to bait their invincible reversal and they wake up with command grab... well that sucks for you doesn't it. There is no oki setup that covers both a long range command grab and invincible reversal, meaning that you have to guess *on your offense*, which just sucks. There's probably a way around this to make it more fair for the attacker, but that doesn't exist in SF6 yet.

His meter build is lesser for the same reason Manon's is. You're doing less in neutral as a grappler than you would on other characters and a successful grapple gives you noticeably less meter than a normal combo. Also, it may not seem much but not only do fireballs improve your control over drive meter but it also gives you more super meter over the entire game.

Down Fierce could be completely removed ok, let's play zangief how I play it, that means removing unreliable stuff so I don't do any of the following. Level 1 Level 2 regular borscht dynamite target combo down fierce offensive Drive Impact tundra storm regular Lariat OD Lariat standing medium kick (that's asking for a drive impact) crouching light kick (that's asking for a drive impact) Russian Suplex anywhere near a corner. So all I have is those ~3 combos that end on lariat and gimmicks, because I'm not good enough to fight Zangief's inconsistent stuff and fight Ken. that's it, we can remove all of that from the character, I wouldn't even consider that a nerf.

These, and StMP always connecting on counterhit and punish counter, are the only buffs I really want for Gief.

Those three aspects of him feel more like bugs and/or oversights than actual intended weaknesses.

@@gameclips5734 he’s has lariat hit behind in previous games and that’s been fine, so I think it would be ok here. It’s also slow as hell at frame 15, so I don’t think it would be a problem if it hit crossups. That being said, if you don’t buy the “legacy” or “power” arguments, that’s fine, but if that’s the case then they should give him something to compensate for losing such a core part of his gameplay. Additionally, if it doesn’t hit crossups, they should have changed the animation so that it doesn’t look like it should hit crossups. Unfortunately, they did neither of these things.

@Resener1
@Resener1 2 месяца назад
@@gameclips5734 the fact that it’s so slow means that autocorrect doesn’t work, since by the time the opponent jumps over you and gief turns around lariat will hit them on the ground, meaning they just block it. You may be able to do EX lariat because it’s 12 frames, but now you more spending 2 bars for an anti air that may not even hit. The only way he can beat crossups is jump back jLP or jLK, which you never see anyone do because those are not practical to do as a reaction. It’s more or less perfect parry or bust. As a concept, lariat is a fine anti air. Like you said, it’s a “one” button anti air, which, in a vacuum, is pretty good. The problem is that it fails on legacy, power, and aesthetic levels, which means that it feels really bad to use in practice. If they addressed any one of those, I would at least know that Capcom cares about the move, but the fact that they haven’t touched the move at all is really disappointing.
