This is the kind of content the FGC needs more of. Kudos Mr. F. A lot of newer players focus too much on cool combos and don't realize they are making these mistakes in the meantime.
The tanaka setup is the reason why kage is top tier, actually, it's the reason why tier list are reversed, pros don't want you to know about kage and the tanaka setup because you could ruin their career if you master it
No joke this video made me wanna play sfv again so I hopped into ranked, super bronze bracket. Unga kage player that kept jumping in, DPing, sweeping. Once the second round started I anti aired him 5 times in a row, 4 of which flash kicks and he ragequit. Thanks, Brian_F!
I’d been hitting a slump in sfv recently so I decided to finally give this video a watch. After watching it I hopped back on the game, went on a 5 win streak following the advice this video gave then got eviscerated by the most unga bunga ryu imaginable then I cried myself to sleep. Thank you for the advice Brian
Yeah ltg got like 20+ tags stuck in Diamond. You'd think Diamond is the last Rank if you didn't know any better. 4years playing 4-5times a week and Diamond is his LIMIT
@@Pillmonger you are right. He 'RQ' his way to Diamond on all his tags. Because EVENTUALLY he will find lower people he can easily beat. But once you hit Diamond, then you have to prove your worth, majority will be same and/or higher ranked. Which proves, he out of his league. Which is fine we all have limits. But..... Far as he's concern he is a deity and talented
Just started playing SFV last week and had a hard time getting through Bronze, This video is gonna help me get rid of my bad habits and work harder on mastering Anti-Air, Special moves and working on techniques and Drills. I'm glad I found this video, Thank you :)
Keep at it! You improve after every game even if you don't notice. It's kind of like losing weight, you don't notice how much progress you've made until you look back at where you started.
Hey Brian! I waited until I made it out of Bronze before commenting. Thank you for the awesome video! I started Street Fighter last summer, saw your video around October and adapted my playstyle to what you said. It took me a while and I admit I did not train that much, but by doing less, punishing random sweeps and focusing on shutting down air approaches, today I finally made it to Silver. And I feel awesome! Thanks man!
@@Merknilash yeah I think a lot of the advice of how to rank up is too simplified and makes it seem like there's a magic bullet The only real solution is to keep learning new things and implementing them into your game. There is no checklist of things you need to rank up.
its so helpful that you mentioned doing drills, I remember being stuck then I took the time to do exactly what you said in the video and my execution became much better
Coming back one more time just to say I've made it out, I'm currently 55 hours into the game with Necalli and really like the ranked experience, thanks for the great content!
Bought a stick recently and got into fighting games , currently at 35ish hrs on SFV (still getting used to the stick as well kind of) but i can definitely see all the points in this video in players in bronze (myself included). Been stuck around 700-900 lps for the past 10-15 hours , but i can definitely see how improving on all these things will shoot me straight out of here. Will try to follow these steps for now , but i also hope you continue making videos like this. This was very informative to a person like me , who's new to FGs overall.
A bit late into this but it should be mentioned that these execution drills should be done ALONGSIDE playing matches online, and that people should NOT stop playing entirely just to do these. A lot of newcomers have the mind set that they shouldn't play online until they've spent weeks in training mode. I know this video is intended for people who have already played a lot online, but I just don't want people to have a bad takeaway from this.
Thank you for this video. I main as Karin and I’ve been in Bronze for a long time now. I do all the bad things you said but now I’m going to do better.
Play higher ranks more often. Take your time and learn to crush counter punish. Just let your opponent beat themselves. Gold players allways want to get in and do the new combo they been practicing. They beat themselves most of the time. Patience and basics will keep you out of silver.
Something that is worth mentioning about anti-air is that using your specials to do may be one of your best options, but even as you get out of bronze it will still take deliberation or mental preparation from you to do it. If you don't think you'll get your DP off, use one of your anti-air normals, saves you the mental space and lets you just react. I think this concept was from a recent Core-A Gaming video so I'm pretty confident that anyone could use this advice.
Stopping myself from jumping, and learning ranges of my normals are what got me out of bronze….now that I’m out, I realize this game more is about timing and reactions
I'm 2 years late but I have to say SFV grew on me since I got it back in 2016. I was a literal baby in fighting games and all I wanted was do damaging combos and cool stuff without literally considering neutral and all the things around a fighting game. I was stuck in Ultra Bronze because the mindset was me bruteforcing the stuff I know into working out instead of learning how the opponent plays; it was something I brought then to FighterZ and I didn't get my ass kicked the same because back then the game was populated by a lot, and I mean A LOT, of casual players. Since last year I picked up Strive because it looked really good, found out all my bad habits and step by step reducing them with me improving at the genre as a result. Recently I picked up SFV again, this time for PC, with a new account; I didn't touch the game since Season 1 so I really wasn't in touch with all the changes and everything that came in. Man: I got Silver in ONE SITTING. Now, you know Silver ain't much if you play this game a lot, most of people who're competitive are at least Diamond; the thing that got me was at the times I struggled a ton to get to this rank and gave up on Ultra Bronze, now I got it almost effortlessly with an embarassing win streak. My entire point is that realizing how much someone can improve at fighting games is really something else, no wonder the FGC is so dedicated to their games and community, also big W for Brian_F, I didn't use this video but it points out a ton of bad habits people have on higher ranks as well
Subbed Mr.F. Things that spoke to me in this vid were definitely the do less and anti air options depending on the angle. Im stuck between bronze and super bronze but I'll be able to make it out thanks to you💪🙂👌
Planet wisp is an amazing theme and this is an amazing video. I already got out of bronze years ago (lmao), but this is an amazing easy to explain it. Please keep the content going! This is what the community needs!
Thanks BrianF. Unlike too many Bronze tutorials which assume waaayyyy better situational awareness than people have, this is simple and practical advice. Kudos.
Going to try these when I stream SFV. I've been so tired of dropping from Silver to Ultra Bronze back and forth but I think I have more confidence now with this video.
I know this is an old video, but I just came back to say that I decided to finally apply myself a lil bit and try to get out of bronze levels before sf6 came out. Took about a week and a half, but I finally got to silver tonight. Everytime I got salty, I'd just play this video in between games to refresh my mind with the game plan as I noticed I started to just hit buttons after I started getting annoyed. It calmed me down and got my head focused on what I needed to do like having a corner man during a fight. Thanks for the videos and content you put out for the fgc. I met you once at Absolute Battle 8 and you encouraged me to play then. Hopefully I'll run into you at another tournament and thank you in person then. You got this Texas boy to find his love for the game again. All the best homie.
I took the anti-air training too serious. While i was in bronze, i got damage for free from jump ins. Now that i'm silver, there are some situations that i should block/dash under instead of anti-air (like akuma air fireball), but my body moves without my will to anti-air if it thinks that you are airborne. I play mostly Laura
For real man, I just had a Cammy doing the same thing on me jumping in and low kick nonsense and keeps me stun smh player was trash . But makes me look bad in my defense was learning Laura and o my player a few matches
I made it to silver after watching this videos. Relatively new to fighting games as a whole but this showed me where my flaws were and what I was doing wrong. Thank you so much!
I'm ordering my hitbox tomorrow (my left wrist doesn't work) and stepping into the world of fighting games. Having a clear starting point is awesome thanks. Been playing smash for 6 years Hopefully some of that carries over in a good way. I'm just sick of people airdodging everything I try to create.
Congrats friend and best of luck, welcome to the family. 🙏 Remember that whether you win or lose a game, the knowledge you gain is always more valuable.
Amazing video! I would love to see a series like this, with why you're stuck in Silver, Gold, etc, cause a lot of people focus on the basics, while there's few guides for what to do when people stop just jumping, and start mixing up their offense
Nice video. I'm subscribing in the hopes that you will be uploading this same type of tips for the other levels as well. This is very useful. I will say it's not new information, but being reminded of it makes one appreciate the basics. And as a stuck in bronze / silver player myself, the do less strategy sometimes feel a lil less valuable when there are players who know how to successfully apply pressure and then bait and block and invincible wake up at the right moment.
Some of this I knew already (which is why I chose my main based on the motion inputs that came easiest to me), but I actually think this applies to many fighting games. Everyone jumps too much or drops inputs no matter the game. I would love to see more simple tips like this, but I also think it applies to a ton of other games and not just SFV.
Great video. I've made it to Super Silver in the past in the first 2 years; it was out. I was sure I would hit super gold. I didn't play enough, and the competition got thick, I've been playing sf for over 30 years now. 😳 even though i practiced a lot of what you preach in this video, i wasn't executing my response and resistance enough. Today, I'm 200 league points from hitting silver yet again. I watched this video before moving forward. I'm going to go to training mod and work on my right side special and combos more double down on combo connection and back off from my opponent apone wake up. Stuff i knew better but never heard it said and conditioned myself to do Andamantly. Thanks for the tip. Hope the vext time i post is about being silver and in my way to gold wish me luck.
As a certified Scrublord, I know Jumping constantly is a bad habit of mine. I also realized that other people share my habit so my default strategy is "Try to counter what my dumbass would do" and it works 50% of the time
th-cam.com/video/JaT1e2TXj1g/w-d-xo.html check out this match Fuudo vs Daigo, Mika uses dashes, MP whiff punish combo or moves that move forward (6MK or charged HK etc) to get in Guile's face, once get close and never let him escape
I've been looking for a vid like this. Ever since I started getting into fighting games I always had trouble with 2d fighters. I always assumed that Im just bad at 2d, and distanced myself from it, but I knew I had to play them at some point. I had real trouble with the execution, and getting used to anti airing. The steps to improve are helping. Thanks a lot for making this video :^)
Very bad side effect, Having knowledge about safe moves, frame data etc will make your friends quit fighting game and send them to Pubg, mobile legends haha. But im causual SFV Online gives me PTSD. FGC is hard
the big factor for me getting from gold to plat was starting to shimmy. learning how to move in and out of your opponents buttons in neutral and then punishing them for it is super strong at that level.
@@JohanMGO you dont have to hit their body, you wanna anticipate their attack and hit their limb. Your attack range doesnt matter as much as long as you're spaced properly
I started playing 1 month ago, with balrog, got to gold. But then i see that my usual way of playing the game no longer work in this elo, this is why im starting to lose way more often. This is what i love about the game, to growth, i wanna be better than yesterday, so i kinda dont care if i lose matther of fact, i like losing because it means i did something wrong and i can be better after that experience. But if youre stuck somewhere and dont ask yourself why you losing i think you will stay where you are for a long period because you dont want to accept the fact that you are weaker than your oppenent and you need to study whys that.
Excellent Video. I found all of that to be true and I was relatively new to SFV back then. I was able to get out of bronze easily since I noticed the patterns immediately. I haven't played in a while, so I'll wait until the V-Shift mechanic comes out to get back into SFV again.
Got out of bronze after a little over a week since starting this game. Thanks Brian for all the good videos. I think it's largely thanks to your content :)
Depends on how you use it, if you use it as your only approach, then yes, if you use it to change the direction of your jump, then depends, if you try to bait a dp then punish then no, if you use it to approach after a back/neutral jump then yes
Peasant super bronze player : *imma keep on jumping* Me an intellectual ultra rookie player: *bruh i don't even know how to jump and if i lose its because of a smurf but if i win Its because i outsmarted him and he's trash*
I used to dread the idea of practicing execution of commands. Little did I know that just 10 minutes or less of doing shoryukens would garantee me to never fail at it again.
Ah man I remember buying SFV on release with the Chun Li stick. I might have to knock the dust off of it. I might not. I might just watch Smug with the greatest of of ease. That sounds better.
Please do one for Silver rank! I almost reached Gold one time but lost to lagging yolo Laura and then got sent back to super silver and i haven't played ranked since.
No not true. Gold was better a few years ago because it was mostly fighting game fans who bought SFV so that excuse aint gonna work. Golds now are more like silvers or utra bronzes used to be when this game released.
Crazy how I started playing online last month and the FGC community helped me so much teaching me about so much about sfv. I finally got through to silver about a week ago! Seriously thanks a lot, I really have a lot of fun even when losing it’s all about learning.
I do most of this and it's still hard af to improve. Trying to get better when every game you play you have to fight a completely different character knowledge checking tf out of you, or just playing in a very weird/random way, it makes my brain want to explode. And a lot of the time it's the act of simply walking forward to get in a range where you can apply pressure or try getting something going, it becomes insanely awkward.
Thank you for this video. I've been in bronze for 4 years but I think I can make it to silver now

I always assumed that Im just bad at 2d, and distanced myself from it, but I knew I had to play them at some point. I had real trouble with the execution, and getting used to anti airing. The steps to improve are helping. Thanks a lot for making this video :^)
You have no idea how much I needed this. Street Fighter needs content like this, thank you Brian.
Very bad side effect, Having knowledge about safe moves, frame data etc will make your friends quit fighting game and send them to Pubg, mobile legends haha. But im causual SFV Online gives me PTSD. FGC is hard
Dude, awesome vid. I'm not bronze rank but some of those hints are really helpful. Great content, keep it up
When's why you're stuck in gold 😣
Working our way up... slowly
the big factor for me getting from gold to plat was starting to shimmy. learning how to move in and out of your opponents buttons in neutral and then punishing them for it is super strong at that level.
@@facadeESEA I use Kage so reach it's a problem
@@JohanMGO you dont have to hit their body, you wanna anticipate their attack and hit their limb. Your attack range doesnt matter as much as long as you're spaced properly
@@facadeESEA I tried to find videos about spacing but no luck yet
Press Button Win has a very good "Think, Don't Mash!" precisely about doing less in fighting games.
I started playing 1 month ago, with balrog, got to gold. But then i see that my usual way of playing the game no longer work in this elo, this is why im starting to lose way more often. This is what i love about the game, to growth, i wanna be better than yesterday, so i kinda dont care if i lose matther of fact, i like losing because it means i did something wrong and i can be better after that experience. But if youre stuck somewhere and dont ask yourself why you losing i think you will stay where you are for a long period because you dont want to accept the fact that you are weaker than your oppenent and you need to study whys that.
Can u help me getting in gold league?
Excellent Video. I found all of that to be true and I was relatively new to SFV back then. I was able to get out of bronze easily since I noticed the patterns immediately.
I haven't played in a while, so I'll wait until the V-Shift mechanic comes out to get back into SFV again.
This is so good. Soooooo good.
That intro almost made me piss myself. Lmaoooo!!! That was well edited with music selection and all.
I should start working on these. Input practice often(Actually still rookie). I want to try these methods and get back online.
this is facts. I've been winning a lot and plan to make it out of bronze any day now
I know why in stuck in bronze. I'm too scared to play fighters online and start getting panic attacks when I do try
You're not alone. This is me with most online games. Not just fighters.
I had that at first big time but a friend just made me do it. It really does go away after while.
Got out of bronze after a little over a week since starting this game. Thanks Brian for all the good videos. I think it's largely thanks to your content :)
Question does yoga float count as the jumping thing
Depends on how you use it, if you use it as your only approach, then yes, if you use it to change the direction of your jump, then depends, if you try to bait a dp then punish then no, if you use it to approach after a back/neutral jump then yes
this video basically beams down to “prioritize learning your fundamentals first”
BRIAN F AND THE F STANDS FOR FUNDAMENTALS
It stands for fenomenal
Thanks Brian watching this video helped me fix my mentality and I'm enjoying the game for the first time in four years
Peasant super bronze player : *imma keep on jumping*
Me an intellectual ultra rookie player: *bruh i don't even know how to jump and if i lose its because of a smurf but if i win Its because i outsmarted him and he's trash*
I used to dread the idea of practicing execution of commands. Little did I know that just 10 minutes or less of doing shoryukens would garantee me to never fail at it again.
It's not guaranteed that you will never fail again, the execution drill are made to familiarize with the inputs so it's easier to do them

Thanks Brian, this is a very clear guide, i hope you make more.
Ah man I remember buying SFV on release with the Chun Li stick. I might have to knock the dust off of it. I might not. I might just watch Smug with the greatest of of ease. That sounds better.
I feel this is good for not only SFV, but several other fighting games! Thanks for posting!
How to get out of bronze - definitive guide:
1. pick Abimagail
2. ...
3. PROFIT!
Seriously can’t wait for the rest of these thank you
Please do one for Silver rank! I almost reached Gold one time but lost to lagging yolo Laura and then got sent back to super silver and i haven't played ranked since.
Me: It'd be cool if someone made a video about me
Also Me: oh no
What was the first guy thinking jumping in all the time?
This time is going to work! oh no let me try it again! oops again!
Man this has helped quite a lot. I've been taught by my dad to play fighting games and I feel like only now I'm getting even better and more patient
2:36 I‘m in diamond and still struggle with that sometimes lol
I definitely need to practice this. I'm so quick to jump into learning optimal high damage combos that I forget to learn how to anti-air lol.
Need a study to getting out of the house when stuck in the middle of bat soup flu.
LMAO😂😂😂
what I most love about your videos is the soundtrack
next: how to get out of Gold please.. im in a constant vortex of super silver and gold... :(
+1 for showing crouch HP for anti-air before moving to DP. Good tutorial!
SIlver people already stop jumping ( exept ken player ofc ) ... Silver today is gold 2-3 years ago. It's not easy to win as a beginner.
No not true. Gold was better a few years ago because it was mostly fighting game fans who bought SFV so that excuse aint gonna work. Golds now are more like silvers or utra bronzes used to be when this game released.
Crazy how I started playing online last month and the FGC community helped me so much teaching me about so much about sfv. I finally got through to silver about a week ago!
Seriously thanks a lot, I really have a lot of fun even when losing it’s all about learning.
@@Doktor_Jones That's such a random answer
there are also a lot of smurfs in the lower ranks too....
If they're in ranked and they're a smurf they'll be out of those ranks in a day or 2.
Imagine smurfing in a fighting game and then wondering why fighting games have trouble getting new players.
Until they intentionally lose to rank down and play the ranks again.
If you are playing ranked, you shouldn't have that problem
Also if you find a smurf you can always add him to the blacklist
I do most of this and it's still hard af to improve. Trying to get better when every game you play you have to fight a completely different character knowledge checking tf out of you, or just playing in a very weird/random way, it makes my brain want to explode. And a lot of the time it's the act of simply walking forward to get in a range where you can apply pressure or try getting something going, it becomes insanely awkward.
