@@duxnihilo that's what every content creator said about modern Chun li. All it takes is a person in a tournament to do good with them for opinions to change lol
I'm struggling in high plat/low dia...I'm doing nothing of what your guide says to do! Excited to implement these strats into my gameplay and start enjoying him more
I'll be playing Akuma because I spent the money. I'll be playing on Modern because Classic hurts my hands on faster characters. Yes I'm part of the problem you cannot stop me. In all seriousness if I can wrap my head around Akuma's game plan in Modern to the point where it's second nature, I might be able to make the switch over to Classic.
Modern got me into street fighter for real,it made it so much easier to learn the fundementals, to the point where now i'm at the point where i have an actual gameplan and i'm executing it, or registering and reacting to my opponents gameplan. Reached master with ryu, chun, ken, luke, cammy,, so akuma is next for sure
Highly appreciate the honesty and gameplan of modern akuma..I was discouraged to play akuma..because i realised how many moves he's missing on modern. But with a correct gameplan..I can do this. I believe. Thank you man
Great Guide!. For me is very dificult to do drive rush Auto+M->cr.H . I get like 1 in 10. I found that a fine replacement could be drive rush M->Auto+M->Auto+M. It makes a little less damage, but it also make crouching oponents to get up so the Tastu can connect. I don't have any problems with drive rush foward+H->cr. H, but the other one I just can get it.
I swear I watched an overview video about modern akuma. You can do all his demon flips by pressing 1 of the attack buttons while in the air. Also, teleport by pressing all 3 attack at the same time.
he can at least do the classic demon shortcut of combining the last 2 inputs so its L>L>LMH still 3 inputs, but at least its slightly easier than having to press 2 buttons and a direction. He also easy anti-air confirms off jMP cause your supers are one button. (but losing jMK is definitely not worth) Missing the overhead alone is enough for him to be worse than classic, and raging demon is like a treat you really don't use it cause he has such high dmg combos worth dumping meter for. (he also technically has an overhead off his M>H target combo that you can mixup between stHK as a psuedo mixup but it is not worth it just very meme-worthy)
I like the old title better haha, I've still yet to use a modern character but I think I'd be interested after remapping the controls on pad, I don't like the default so much.
@@ANIMEILLUMINATI unfortunately, and that alone makes a huge difference in viability, especially at high levels where players realize they can only defend crouching and just tech throws
Hey man great video! Recently I changed my name in granblue rising to I Am Jiyuna, then all of a sudden last night I had a dream where seofon got revealed for rising then i woke up with a mysterious pair of shorts. What does this mean??
I still can't believe we did not get an instant raging demon in modern.... (even though the demon input is somewhat simplified in modern). Also, if you do the shin akuma in modern, you still cannot do the double air fireball nor one of the added supers (quarter circle back twice + kick)
Modern raging demon is slightly altered from classic. They removed the forward input, so u just have to press the buttons. So it's about 1 button faster.
It was only a matter of time before modern controls hit a wall. The team may have to get more creative to make modern players happy, I honestly thought this would be more of an issue with AKI but here we are. I’m kind of excited to see how they improve on the “simple” gaming option, they go hard on players who use modern but I couldn’t imagine not having access to all my normals 😭😩😩
Only character I can really play right now is Classic Cammy -- if I wanted to learn another character but for Modern controls what would be the best choices?
That is the core of SF - you cannot tech throws on reaction so they are guessing everytime. To beat throw tech, you need to do a delayed attack or shimmy to punish their throw tech attempt.
If you're only playing modern because you want an advantage, you're going to left wanting every time because you will always be trading in a portion of the classic arsenal. Modern is simply a different way to play the game and clicks better with some people.
@@ANIMEILLUMINATI Definitely! I'm diamond 5 with my modern Rashid and on my way to Master. I play mostly casual matches and I've just been playing a few ranked matches every week. My biggest problem with Modern is that the devs decide how good each character is purely by what they lose. It feel arbitrary at times because some characters lose overheads and some keep them. I think there should be like Modern A, B, C, versions of each character that have different tradeoffs. Or let the player decided which level (light, medium, heavy) of the direction specials they get.
Thanks for the Modern video. Most people have completely forgot about Modern, which is a shame because I really like modern in this game. Not much content about it in the last months.
@@ANIMEILLUMINATI Hey ty. If you could give me one tip for learning combos, getting better or have an easier start as a beginner what would it be? What im doing right now is going into training and well train the combos there :D It just feels overwhelming because I really never played fighting games before. I feel kinda stupid asking this question but as a beginner it is not so easy for me to get into SF6 not gonna lie.
Hey everyone I know this has nothing to do with the video but im actually asking for help lately I usually do well in tournaments with modern characters like cammy, akuma and guile but now lately I’ve been doing so bad that I don’t even win my first winners and losers matches anymore. I was wondering if anyone can help and if so please. I would like to spar and perhaps if any of you have time to coach me as I’m worried for evo because I’m actually going to compete at evo for the first time in this game. Thank you for understanding. I’m in a dark place especially cause I lost again right now in a tournament. And I feel so defeated
Just have FUN. If FG’s are making you depressed you should put them down. I just went 0-2 in tournament on Tuesday and I don’t care at all, just excited for the next one.
You still make Modern Akuma look like an menace, but he seems to be the kind of character who really benefits from playing Classic even before we get into the damage difference. They made the right call by tuning him for Classic, though he's aight in Modern.
Hard disagree, he's so easy to play on modern. Modern raging demon is also way easier. Medium assist combo comes out fast and is an auto hit confirm and does big damage. Don't forget assisted combos do not have a damage penalty
@@hifen9406 What does using modern for real mean? I put three people in masters using only assisted combos. If by "for real" you mean pro level play then that is irrelevant to the vast majority of people.
@@ANIMEILLUMINATI basic is a vague term. I'd argue a majority of players would do more damage over time using auto combos than manual or hybrid modern combos just due to reliability. It's like every kid thinks he should shoot threes because it's the most efficient choice for NBA players when these kids would score more going for lay ups. Most people are basic and will forever be basic
If modern akuma sucks, then Good! you have to earn to play as akuma with skill. It's always been that way since he showed up. Even to get to fight against him you had to prove yourself worthy.
I’d say more like top 5. Sure he loses some normals but honestly I don’t notice it much.. I did change my binds which allows for me to only press two buttons tho. Mf is a menace 😭
