As Tokido once said....." Fighting Game is Something so great".....committing to getting your ass kicked to learn believe it or not is what makes learning this awesome.
Loved this! Also, random thing I noticed: I feel like you’d really like playing Guile. Your approach to Luke, playing him more patient and pestering your opponent into making errors is what Guile excels at. If your comfortable with charge characters you should give him a try!
I never comment on videos. This one deserves one. 1) Great transitions. Fun to watch. 2) Amazing work documenting your experience. I’m super proud of you for creating a goal, practicing towards it, explaining the game mechanics and meta for the audience to follow, and trying to execute on it. 3) I already knew you wouldn’t get too far in a tourney but I wasn’t aware how much you’d actually learn. You’re a genius in the making! Good stuff, man.
As a new FGC Competitor, one mistake I made as well is not going to weekly locals before going to big tournaments. The pros say it all the time: go to your locals. What better way to get better than to go to the hub for people like us that meet up every week? I wish I knew that before I got curb stomped at Max Mode earlier this year. Lmao. You're not alone, man. Keep practicing!
As a Luke player myself I understand the struggle of how to play this game. Most of time for new beginners they started off playing Modern controls that way you are more familiarize with the games mechanics. Also yes there is an absurd amount of Akuma players online.
I play modern on a character to understand their spacing options before switching to classic (mostly because if I get ranked in like iron with that character I learn nothing from them and go on crazy win streaks because most people I play are minimum high plat)
I absolutely love street fighter! i used to play it as a pure casual player (since I wasn't really that good back then). once SF6 released I decided that I would actually try and take it a bit more seriously and try out ranked. I was an akuma player in other games but since akuma wasn't out yet I had to choose someone else, and BOY did I choose the most unexpected choice for a character. I decided to give Zangief a spin (heh heh *spin*... get it?) and of course I ranked at the lowest of the low, iron. but over time I've climbed the ranks and now I'm in Diamond 1! watching this video made me remember the journey of climbing the ranks! i hope you continue to improve even more!
Glad to see you went to the first tournament! As you can see, there's a lot more to fighting games than just "mastering" the very basics. Even hitting Master rank is just the VERY beginning of competitive play. You're definitely still in your novice phase, true mastery takes a few years at least before you start being competitive in local brackets.
this video is very underrated and i hope to see it gain popularity with time. All the sound effects, the animation transitions and the wavy bubble font give me heavy Asumsaus vibes amd I love it. Keep up the good work!
I am on Day 5 of my "new to SF 6 experience". Not a SF newbie by a long shot, have played for a few years in SF4 AE and got some SF5 experience but not much. Mostly quit after 4AE I am in platinum now. One thing I can say is anyone who has had any experience from the past games but hasn't gotten SF6 yet, don't worry. The entire ranked system is really forgiving, I would say it starts getting competitive around Gold 3 upwards. Everyone's fundamentals are GONE with these new mechanics because it has definitely made everyone impatient. Genuinely it amazes me some of these players got so far playing the way they do. I have been playing off of my own experience and memory with minimal labbing, consistently beating out plats/masters. It's crazy how far my past memory has taken me, defense especially has been frustrating almost every opponent I come across. Almost everyone I met was not used to me actively waiting on hard guaranteed punishments and not fishing, so they'd just walk backwards and zone. My combos are ass but one thing I always did learning a fighting game is "KEEP IT SIMPLE". Simple, guaranteed punishes and building up from there. Having the new Over Drive gauge full on start is interesting, because you can really apply crazy pressure immediately with EX Moves that in the old games you had to work at least a round for. Overall I love the game, I couldn't get into 5 but 6 fills like a great mix of 4,5, and the new mechanics 6 introduces.
Amazing video, as someone who tries to get people into fighting games on the regular, the first steps are always brutal and turn off a lot of people. I hope this video helps some of my friends to get over the initial learning curve.
Trust me playing in tournament is a another level! The nerves are working against you. I went to Evo last year and only won one match and then got bodied. I have been going to locals and the highest I ever got was 3rd place. I put work in too. Please don't get frustrated. Your journey was refreshing to watch. There are a lot of cheaters online that can frustrate new players.
What a great video. Really inspiring man. I am in the same boat as you. I always found fighting games to be super interesting (though for me it's more Mortal Kombat and Tekken than Street Fighter) but they always intimidated me. The learning curve is just insane and I never had the conviction to actually sit down and get good. Great video and great progress, honestly. Well done!
Great vid! the editing and narrative are top notch and it brought back memories of when I was first learning the game One tip I have for your default combo is to do an uncharged heavy knuckle after the charged light knuckle and then buffer a tackle. It puts you at +3 on block and in range for a strike/throw/shimmy mixup (use the frame meter to check your timing). The tackle is auto-timed meaning you can buffer everything. You can hit confirm with 2MP LP for strike On hit you’re +32 or smth and usually in the corner so you can do whatever you want lol altho I’d suggest a 5MP frame kill into throw or 2MP LP hit confirm. You could also just not frame kill and instead shimmy A tip to practice this btw is to set a save state right after the perfect light knuckle so that you’re not tearing your hair out every time you miss it like I did for months lmao I do this by pausing the screen right after it starts, changing the game speed to pause, and then setting the save state. Also saves a lot of time The problem with the medium knuckle finisher is that it loses to back roll. So even though it puts you in an advantageous position, they’re too far away to allow you to capitalize on your opening. The only downside of the heavy knuckle finisher is that it requires a perfect light knuckle, but if you miss the perfect timing you can just do the medium knuckle finisher as a backup. the basics such as anti-airing and spacing are generally more important than combos, but when you’re learning the fastest way to get better is to work on your offense. Good luck on your SF journey! Game’s hella fun altho there is some annoying BS (Bison 👀) but that’s every game lol
Credit for ranking up altogether and getting offline experience with other players at a live tournament. SF6 is an incredible fighting game which is hard AF; although rank doesn’t always indicate skill, it is a testament to hard work and consistency the higher you level up. Great clip & keep it up 👍🏾
Great video and editing my man! Love the layman's style of breaking down fundamentals in the game. MUCH more enjoyable than watching these experts talk, where you feel like you need a SF dictionary to interpolate everything. 😊
As mentally stacked that this game is, I do think is the best fighting game for begginers, I say that because it's the only one I was able to understand as a complete beginner too
It took a lot of guts starting from the ground zero to a Toronto major in one month a lot of people been playing fighting games over 10+ years. Keep at it again and watching videos of pros online for your char helps alot
As someone who never touched a street fighter game until yesterday, this video is a treasure, i love the game so far and this vid just made me love it even more, incredible edits and content if i could sub twice i would.
Really like the flow and pacing of the video. The edits keep the flow while not being distracting. Ps for new players, the reason why the pros look like they tech every throw, it's probably due to them using a option select called delay tech throw. Think of a MCQ question of A,B,C. Option select covers "A,B" but not "C". By probablity, 33.3% per answer now becomes 50% chance of getting it right by using option select. Delay throw tech covers throw and blocking hits. But loses to shimmy
i cant believe i started this video thinking this was a very well established channel, only to see the count, mad props, this is pretty good all around, i hope to see even more in future
This reminded me so much of when I first started learning SF6 (also my first fighting game) at release. Great video, and I hope you continue to enjoy the game!
Ayer le decía a alguien que se quejaba de la dificultad de Black myth Wu Kong que probará llegar a MASTER en street fighter 6, soy máster con 5 personajes en el juego 😂 creo que por eso YT me recomendó tu vídeo, siempre me alegra ver llegar nuevos jugadores a SF6 .. felicitaciones!
Just attended and participated in my first EVO for sf6 this year. Went 1-2. VERY first ever tournament setting I was ever in...lost 16 straight games. Stay on the path, you got this.
Very good video man. I hope you keep playing. Even though you had some prior fighting game experience, getting to Platinum in a month despite never really playing any Street Fighter is impressive no matter what anyone tells you. It took me a few months get there and after a year I still haven’t hit Diamond (granted I swap characters more often than people swap underwear but still) Expecting to do well in a real tournament is basically like expecting to beat Master ranked players (because the majority who search out tournaments are going to at least be that good)
this was an awesome video! even though ive been playing since sfv i loved the break down of the mechanics and your pokes. that throw tech part is so real. you've just earnt a new sub!
This was so well done and inspirational as who is just starting to jump into content creation. You've absolutely earned this sub! Thank you for the amazing video and good luck on your journey!!
So one thing about getting good (or just decent) at a new fighting game is exposure to the game. The reason you thought you didn't get any better in the first week of playing against AI is that yes, you didn't train specifically to react to DI and jump-ins, but even if you started with that, you would not have known the range of your normals, how to use them, and how real opponents worked. Unless you are a natural at these types of games somehow, just putting in the hours and playing the game (and maybe watching pros play) is the only to get comfortable enough to performing those tasks in a match. Pros can anti air with a DP 99% of the time because they have done it for 5-10-20 years.
If it makes you feel any better, I got to Plat 4 with Cammy, and then I was like, “Ya know what? I’m gonna try entering a tournament, let’s see if I can do good in that.” To say I got destroyed is an understatement. My neutral was terrible, my anti airs were bad, I had no idea what the concept of whiff punishing was, and I lost horribly. I ended up taking a few months off of playing Street Fighter 6 after that cuz I just wasn’t having fun after realizing how bad I really was. But, I finally had the itch to play again, and I dedicated that time to getting better. I spent all of my time learning how to fix all of the holes in my game plan over the course of a couple of weeks, and wouldn’t ya know, I got to Diamond! I now sit at a solid Diamond 2 rank, making my way up to Master ever so slowly. Fighting games really are an eternal journey of improvement.
Nice run! SF6 was my first real foray into fighting games as well (played a little snk2 as a kid against my brother though). I played a week at launch, got placed gold with Marissa and worked up to plat. Then came back and played another week right after Ed was released, playing as Ken... placed plat and worked up to diamond. I'm proud of achieving both those goals so quickly... but I'm 99.9% sure you'd still whoop my ass. I don't think my rank really reflects the cheese I achieved it with :D
Man keep it up I like your video. This is why I love fighting games when your new week by week you can see how much you improve. It took me months and months to learn tekken7.. and a yr or 2 in I was winning tournaments. I also love how each rank you get in the players fight different and at high level it's basically a different game. And doesn't it feel good when you try so hard at something that's hard and you see yourself improving. Man I love that feeling
This video was amazing and your channel deserves to be bigger! Honestly, even if you got ROLLED at the tournament in the end, you learned vital info. That burnout is REALLY bad (literally avoid it at all costs, make that ur new priority to learn) and that you lack a lot of matchup knowledge. Keep playing sf6 dude, this content is awesome and i wanna see you get even better and would like to also learn from you
Great video…loved the montage! It’s pretty silly to think you’re going to win your first tournament after one month but I think you knew that. Anyway, love how you broke it down. For me I try to not think about my rank and focus more on my progress and recognizing how much better I’ve gotten. It’s less sweaty and more fun that way. 😅
Thats dope, sf is also my first fighting game placed in rookie and made my way up to diamond 4 in the last year. Edit: oh damn you knew more about the game in 1 week than I did in a couple of months 😅
I really enjoyed this video! Appreciate the level of quality you put in to it! Speaking as a master rank Kim player, I would advise you study top players and learn from their videos! It helps a lot
Here’s a tip, your crouching medium kick combo is a great confirm in neutral for catching your opponent walking as it is a low hit, although on the other hand, you should not use it for punishing as it isn’t that high on damage with its poor scaling. When punishing an opponent, I’d recommend a heavy attack as a starter. Another thing is mix-ups, you may think memorizing two combo strings or two different approaches is completely gonna overload your brain, but in reality, it’s all down to a few hours of practice and muscle memory and it makes a world of a difference.
Shoto players are like a hivemind and they will generally choose the strongest of their selection group. The rest will likely choose their favorite flavor of cool karate gi fireball guy, edgy has a higher pick rate in this type of category. Great video, loved the ending lol.
As Tokido once said....." Fighting Game is Something so great".....committing to getting your ass kicked to learn believe it or not is what makes learning this awesome.
A GAME THAT TAKES 5 YRS TO BECOME GOOD AT IS NOT A GAME FOR MANY.
@@freddurst4420 it only takes how long it takes for you to quickly learn and adapt
Bro the lil animation transitions into the real fight is so cool
dude frrrrrr
For real! Seems insane this dude has less than 1k subs
agreed
Yeah man I kept going "oh shit that was smooth" throughout lol
"I didn't know any matchups besides Akuma" LMAOOOOOO
"You have to get washed to be clean"
Some of the single best advice when coming into any fighter. By a rando at my locals.
This is the single best quote about fighting games I've ever heard.
Might be the same rando I saw on BattleHub a few months back. Said the same thing.
You broke down what takes people years to master kudos to you good sir.
💯🤭
It’s almost a rite of passage to be humbled by going 0-2 at your first local
Loved this! Also, random thing I noticed: I feel like you’d really like playing Guile. Your approach to Luke, playing him more patient and pestering your opponent into making errors is what Guile excels at. If your comfortable with charge characters you should give him a try!

Great video! And perfect timing for me to stumble on. I just bought SF6 last week, and it is my very first FG. I can already relate to so much!
Take your time learning and have fun 🎉
Im about to pick up Street Fighter 6 myself

that ending was so funny and relatable, lmaoooo. in the end, you improved a lot, so keep grinding! great video😄
Nice to see new comers sticking to it. Keep it up
this video is very underrated and i hope to see it gain popularity with time. All the sound effects, the animation transitions and the wavy bubble font give me heavy Asumsaus vibes amd I love it. Keep up the good work!
I really like the ending, mainly because you identified what was wrong, shows you're paying attention. That's is how it is sometimes. Good video.
love the animations, music, and everything about this video, good shit dude thinkin on doing this myself
Big ups! Win or lose at Toryuken, you got to Platinum, and learned a ton! Good on ya man
hearing the line "im just gonna spend my time in burnout hopefully that goes well" im like bro...

Great video, I will show this to my friends who don't want to play fighting games because they're too hard :D
Great vid! the editing and narrative are top notch and it brought back memories of when I was first learning the game
One tip I have for your default combo is to do an uncharged heavy knuckle after the charged light knuckle and then buffer a tackle. It puts you at +3 on block and in range for a strike/throw/shimmy mixup (use the frame meter to check your timing). The tackle is auto-timed meaning you can buffer everything.

Lol. The end bro. Lol. So good. You earned a subscriber
Buying this game tomorrow and starting as Akuma 🗿
Those transitions in the video are sick!
As mentally stacked that this game is, I do think is the best fighting game for begginers, I say that because it's the only one I was able to understand as a complete beginner too
dude it feels illegal watch this quality content without paying, keep it up
It took a lot of guts starting from the ground zero to a Toronto major in one month a lot of people been playing fighting games over 10+ years. Keep at it again and watching videos of pros online for your char helps alot

Ps for new players, the reason why the pros look like they tech every throw, it's probably due to them using a option select called delay tech throw.

These kinda videos are always a hit. The improvement processes is on of the best things about fighting games.
Whoa sick editing for the music syncing in the third quarter of the video
Great content! Toronto represent!
Holy shit, this is so high quality!
This reminded me so much of when I first started learning SF6 (also my first fighting game) at release. Great video, and I hope you continue to enjoy the game!
Damn the montage got me pumped to play
loving the JSRF sound tracks!
this channel is underrated
I went through the same thing with Dragon Ball FighterZ, don't give up man, online and in person is totally different
Congrats on reaching Plat! If you're still interested in the game don't let the tournament discourage you!
Great video (bonus for the Paper Mario OST)
I really liked this video! I recently got SF6 and have been taking notes from this.

Stay on the path, you got this.
I’m guessing the level of competition was crazy high huh
😂😂😂😂
@@demonreturns4336 I was younger and less committed in those days. 😂
I heard "I achieved Master" Hell what! was what I thought, watched the entire video to only find out you didn't 😂 Hat's off for the commitment though!
Awesome video - thanks
Very good video man.
I hope you keep playing. Even though you had some prior fighting game experience, getting to Platinum in a month despite never really playing any Street Fighter is impressive no matter what anyone tells you.
It took me a few months get there and after a year I still haven’t hit Diamond (granted I swap characters more often than people swap underwear but still)
Expecting to do well in a real tournament is basically like expecting to beat Master ranked players (because the majority who search out tournaments are going to at least be that good)
Unironically you did a good job. Don't let your journey end so soon.

Don’t get discouraged bro! Keep practicing. You should be proud of ur progress from being a day 1 beginner, to an intermediate player 💪🏽

LOL that was not the outcome I expected :) good job none the less, and a good video!
The big mistake beginners always seem to make is focusing too much on memorizing combos and not enough on fighting game fundamentals.
So one thing about getting good (or just decent) at a new fighting game is exposure to the game. The reason you thought you didn't get any better in the first week of playing against AI is that yes, you didn't train specifically to react to DI and jump-ins, but even if you started with that, you would not have known the range of your normals, how to use them, and how real opponents worked.
Unless you are a natural at these types of games somehow, just putting in the hours and playing the game (and maybe watching pros play) is the only to get comfortable enough to performing those tasks in a match.

I've been playing for a month and made it to bronze yesterday :')
@@Vinoyl "Never back down. Never, what?"
congrats my dear friend for improving so much in short period of time :D
That ending was too real 😂
Loved the video, helpful for me as I’m trying to move up the ranks
I really enjoyed this video! Appreciate the level of quality you put in to it! Speaking as a master rank Kim player, I would advise you study top players and learn from their videos! It helps a lot
Great video! Very cool animations of the fighters!
i actually thought you were famous by the quality of this video, keep it up bro!
Que vídeo do caralho, estava prestes a desistir do sf6 por ser muito ruim, mas agora eu vou voltar com tudo
Here’s a tip, your crouching medium kick combo is a great confirm in neutral for catching your opponent walking as it is a low hit, although on the other hand, you should not use it for punishing as it isn’t that high on damage with its poor scaling. When punishing an opponent, I’d recommend a heavy attack as a starter. Another thing is mix-ups, you may think memorizing two combo strings or two different approaches is completely gonna overload your brain, but in reality, it’s all down to a few hours of practice and muscle memory and it makes a world of a difference.
Shoto players are like a hivemind and they will generally choose the strongest of their selection group. The rest will likely choose their favorite flavor of cool karate gi fireball guy, edgy has a higher pick rate in this type of category. Great video, loved the ending lol.
Tends to happen when you go to your first local/tourney lmao, you get humbled so quick but you learn fast
