If you watch his video where he talks about having fun x the expectations you have for the game, I just put my head down and focused on improving bit by bit. Suddenly I had much more success and started climbing real fast. I think in one day I went straight from Gold to Ultra Gold, almost plat.

I don't play Street fighter but I've been taking what you say in your videos and putting it into guilty gear. Only on floor 7 but that's two higher than I used to be!
I have my own story for new players. (Kinda long tough) So, back when i was on silver rank, i was getting jumped in a lot and i wasnt able to anti air some stuff properly. To be exact, i wasnt able to counter akuma jumps ins because i had this habit of using sagat heavy kick to anti air. So, while fighting akuma i noticed that doing tiger uppercut was the ideal way to anti air him and i had to switch between light tiger uppercut and heavy tiger uppercut depending on the distance akuma was jumping. That process was hard for me at first, since i never understood (to this day i would say) how training mode worked. So i made a bow to tiger uppercut back then, where the result of the match wasnt important until i mastered tiger uppercut, that meant, doing tiger uppercut no matter what, getting that was more important than winning for me. And at first, training like that i got me down many ranks until i finally got used to it. That was such a good thing, that from silver rank i jumped straight to gold very easly. Then at gold rank i practiced throw tech, the meaning of spacing, etc... with the same mentality. What i learned from this was that, people bealive winning is the priority no1. But thats not true. Your priority should be learning and practicing and then, on second place, you care about wins.
Seems like a very good mentality. I should probably try this once SF6 drops. One thing I need to do tons more is watch my own replays to actually remember my mistakes (poor short-term memory 😒) - and then fix them!
Good video. I'm not sure if you've read a book called The mental game of poker. They talk about Adult learning Model (ALM) and talk about how we learn as adults. There's 4 levels of performance. 1. Unconscious incompetence - You don't even know what you don't know 2. Conscious competence - being aware of what you don't know (in this case what you're showing us - the habit) 3. Conscious competence - you've worked on what you don't know and can somewhat implement in real time (the effort applied here is intentional, just like shown in this video) 4. Unconscious Competence - here's where you mastered the skill (you basically autopilot the anti air tech you showed) I highly recommend everyone tryin to elevate their game to read it. It has Soo much more to offer.
I learned about these four stages during my work within health care. It's remarkable how it can be applied to such a variety of fields, like fighting games or playing music.
Watch your replays or try to find some nice good/better players and maybe play some longer sets together. You'll see what you keep failing at, or your dropped combos/punishes. They may also have some constructive feedback. Even daigo practices new techniques often. Good luck friend and remember, if you can't beat em, aggressively turtle off nooch till they mentally crack! (I'm kidding, do you)
it's funny how i will happily do endless reps for, say, working out or boxing but when it comes to street fighter i have to force myself into training mode kicking and screaming
What I have to force myself doing is watching my own replays, idk why it's so hard for me. I always wanna get into the next match immediately - instead of 'wasting time' watching my replays. However, that's holding me back big time, because I cannot fix my problems and keep making the same mistakes -.-
Very insightful info. I'm gonna utilize that. Cause my bad habit is when I'm fighting my best friend when he's Lucia. I tend to panic when he goes in the air with j.hk and I respond wrong with a air to air j.mp. so I'm gonna lab a st.mp antiair strategy for my rog so I panick less.
My experience is actually I spend too much time in training mode, labbing and practicing combos and confirms over and over. But I lack the experience and confidence to actually execute in real matches.
Yea you have to have a balance of hours in training mode and fighting online. The more you play you will get comfortable. I find if the balance shifts too much in training mode It doesn't transfer into matches and my execution gets sloppy and i rush inputs. Training mode is important for building muscle memory and experimenting, but don't be afraid to get online. You will improve in time. Rank doesn't matter, its about getting better.
Interesting, I remember doing something very similar by setting the cpu to dash>throw and dash>jab to get the timing for delay techs but now that I think about it you can use these drills to condition yourself to instinctively play a certain way, and boy oh boy do we rely on our instincts when shit hits the fan
You talk about Mind - Hands connection But what about the heart, Brian. A lot of time when I know I'm fighting a flowchart player and I get hit with the simples approach over and over I feel like I'll never be good at this game, effectively limiting my capacity to learn from the match bc I'm too concentrated in being mad at the game
Great video, I'm going to start using Oro and put into practice all the moves you show. I have a bad habit of jumping forward often and I end up getting hit by shoryuken and flak. I have to practice that and what you show since he seems to me a complete player and with good damage. new subscriber although I have been following you on Twitch for a long time and in Street Fighter tournaments for years. great job friend. greetings from Spain warrior 💪
Just don’t input the charge move preemptively, do it manually after the move has finished, that saves you from whether the ending move has hit or not while canceling into charge
I may be wrong, but imho the biggest enemy of newer players is the ranked system of SFV (other games may have the same issue, I dunno) To learn something new is to practice it _and_ actually do it in a real environment, and I think a lot of people aren't willing to put their points on the line to try to learn something new, and they'd rather keep it like it is or quit the game altogether I funcion better in Casual Matches against all sorts of smurfs than I do in Ranked because there I'm not afraid to lose. I'm actually looking into finding a discord in my region so I can play Battle Lounge and get some matchup experience.
The smurf-haunted world of Casual matches is definitely a good environment for a person who is quick to pick up on the nuances and habits of higher level players, and who doesn't get salty at taking an L. For people who need to piece their game together slowly, or need to see a win now and then to stay motivated, Ranked is... okay, probably?
One of the things I really struggle with A LOT is watching my own replays. Very often, I will be annoyed by something that happened in a match, but then immediately forget what it was and NOT watch the replay after because I want to get into the next match -.- And because of that, I feel like I keep making the same mistakes over and over, i.e. droppin the same combo, using the same move in a situation where I should know it's not working, etc.
Sigh, simple advice that I need to follow. Built a habit of back HK as an anti air somehow on Juri back when the game first came out. Can't seem to get that out of my head trying to play again now.
How can you tell if someone is an 09er and beyond? They default to crouching HP anti-air for Oro. That standing MP caused so much pain in third strike. Easily one of his best buttons.

Some people can't be helped. Back in the day, a friend challenged me in KOF 2002 .. he jumps, I AA. He jumps again, I AA. He jumps again, I AA. I suggest that maybe he should stop jumping. He doesn't jump ... for 4 seconds. He jumps, I AA. He jumps again, I AA. He puts more money into the machine. 8 credits later, he's still jumping. I wasn't even attacking him, we were just in neutral. He was just playing PvP like he's playing the AI, probably indicative of playing MMORPGs 4+ hours every day and just doing a rotation over and over.

make sure you are using the dpad instead of the stick, it helps if you are overshooting quarter circles and shit and getting jumps randomly. It might take a bit to get used to but trust me its so much more exact
No, no, no. In that first clip, you neutral jumped on Alex and got anti aired. That anti air will never hit cross ups. If he neutral jumped you, he would have got hit by your anti air but he crossed you up. It wasn't at all the same thing. It was fair.
