simple tip to at least get out of bronze, learn anti air and anti air optimal punishes, cause if i was playing against you, from the moment i realized you didnt anti air at least 3 of my jumps, im just going to keep doing it, and thats free pressure, or if i actually hit you, its a free optimal combo punish for at least 25% hp... again, practice anti airs bro, super important in those ranks
Also I notice you never use her thunder fireball. That move is good!!! Utilize her entire moveset. Watch top players and observe what they do with Laura like Idom!
Hey Guys....i need help making a series for this video. Basically it's suppose to be content where i watch player's replays and give them advice to help improve their gameplay. Basically around the title "DR SMUGGLES SERIES : FROM BRONZE TO WARLORD" or something close. or "DR SMUGGLES PHD helps the communty" give me ideas!
Watching others gameplay is actually a really great idea! And playing them too. Other than that, just explaining specifics is good enough. You're awesome Smug!
I swear to god, smug has got to be the funniest and most charismatic sfv streamer alive and it also doesnt hurt that the dude is a total badass at the game. Every time i watch the guy's stream clips i cant help but just smile and laugh. Its really nice to see one of the great warlords take the time out to help some lowbies every now and again I think thats really cool. More power to you smug and shoutouts to armandood. The road to being a good player is gonna be long but not impossible, keeping playing armandood keep playing. 👍👍👍
Bronze: Learn to anti-air. It gets harder later, but against bronze players you should be able to anti air 10 times out of 10 against these jump heavy nuts. If you can't, you already found your problem. Practice it in training and get used to setting the dummy to all its options. A big part of this is spacing make sure you set yourself for the spacing to anti air, but you can literally just do that all match and beat bronze players. Silver: Learn gameplans and risk reward, and execution. Does your opponent have a fireball? Learn to punish it wiith anti-fireball moves. Does your opponent like to dash? Practice stopping dashes by buffering lights and fast buttons in neutral. For risk reward it's very important that options like wake up super and DP be very very limited. IN FACT just don't use them. Not yet. Yes they're viable but you aren't learning to use your EX elsewhere where there is no risk (confirmed) and pure reward (guaranteed damage, real punishes). Now's also a good time to practice defense. take a few rounds when you're ahead and just see how long you can block, punish, and tech. I'm just assuming you know oki by now, too, and obviously stop throwing out unsafe special moves without a confirm. Gold: You have a gameplan now but work on your execution until these options are instant and intuitive. You will start running over gold players when you can formulate gameplans faster than them. You should know delay tech by now, which gives you a perfect defense in theory, but that stops as soon as shimmies come in, so make a note of players and characters who like to shimmy and just practice not teching them now. You should also start whiff punishing and stop whiffing yourself, and if you don't know what those *actually* are ask somebody because they aren't as reaction based as they seem. Edit 2/2/22: been a while. So for beating plats I found polishing both execution/optimization to make sure you get the damage you're owed, and decision making are important. Jab check dashes, and anti air their trickier jump-ins. Use training to figure out how, but jump back jab is a good starting point. In nooch it's all about spacing your chosen AA button. Also, When I say decision making, I think it's most important not to view things in context of right or wrong not because it worked, but only because it can work consistently. A great example is EX DPs. They work if you guess right, but if you do the math the 120 damage is almost never worth the risk. It's their turn. Blocking ALSO prevents them doing 300 damage to you and does not have the risk. This is why checking dashes is important. Now they have no way of getting combos off on you outside of neutral and you can start developing character specific gameplans to help you in diamond because each match up has its own decision making rules. Maybe you HAVE to ex dp sometimes to get out of that mika left/right, and sometimes you gotta realize you can't jump at people with polished AAs. Regardless, if you go against a platinum player, do your optimal combos for damage or oki, then don't drop your execution and stop their dashes/whacky platinum gimmicks when you will win. They get flustered when they lose life lead repeatedly and resort to very poor, unoptimized approaches just to be random to get back in. Also, for all these levels, watch players better than you and steal blockstrings or combo extensions you didn't know about.
Dude this is kinda really great insight. I am a Gold Sagat. After reading this i realize i tech way too much esp. in corners and got counter hitted way too much. Thank you. Learning to not tech is gonna be my training now.
Yo mike thanks for the advice I would like to speak to you more...im a gold Ryu/Alex and because of lag shit is type hard to execute difficult combos...
@@gallonthegreat7036 Sometimes SF5 just lags and you drop confirms. It happens and you have to move on. If it's happening so much you notice it's holding you back, or it seems to be happening to you more than your opponents, it's time to start checking your replays on CFN with inputs on and verify that your inputs were clean and that you weren't mashing any inputs (it's fundamentally inconsistent). It's completely normal to experience a loss of execution when transferring from the training room to a real match as more of our brain is dedicated elsewhere, so if you are noticing consistency problems with your combos but only in real matches, you can still practice those combos. Even though you're never failing them in training mode, you'll still improve consistency outside of it. Also this is more anecdotal, but breaks for me help my execution a load. If I practice for a few hours a day like normal (training with matchmaking on) some consistency issues don't get ironed out. The next day I'll do training mode only to see roughly how much I fail them, then wait and see if coming back helps. It helps me for muscle memory type problems not not reactions, so stopping dashes and anti airing with combos would get worse, for instance.
@@mikethegreat4296 yo I honestly wouldnt even believe the effort of you putting that as a reply...yo add me on PSN man its GallonDaGreat I def wanna have a long talk with u and pick your brain about SF
@@mikethegreat4296 not even trying to plug my vids on another guys channel but this youtube account also got some SFV vids I appreciate if u just give it a view and judge me from there
When you constantly see Pros like Smug and other CPT competitors play match ups, watching lower ranks play makes you APPRECIATE the level of skill Smug and other Grand Masters and above have! Keep training Armandood and thank you Smug for the commentary 👍 Always great seeing you help people!
I would really appreciate the series. But I love every single piece of content you drop you are by far my fav content creator and pro player! Keep it up smug I will always support you :)
This type of video is important for the community. I've been a big fan of Smug for a while, and this type of video increases my respect even further. Sometimes I feel like some players that are really good in the FGC feel like they are too good to help bad players out. We need more pros like Smug reaching out to the smaller guys out there to help the FGC grow. Awesome video Smug, seriously keep this going as a series or something because it's nothin but positivity.
Smug is a true treasure to the fgc, a lot of people may of been dicks to this dude. Not only was he cool but he took the time out to give him some pointers. Only way for this niche genre to grow is for vets to be more welcoming to newer players or those who just aren’t good yet
From my experience what stops people from getting out of Bronze up to Gold is that they do highly unsafe moves far too often, jump too much or in general know little to no frame data. Most times just knowing how to anti air consistently and block is enough to get someone out of Bronze. There's no shortcut to moving up in sfv so it's a lot of time learning frame data, learning character matchups, practicing combos, frame traps and punishes. The more you learn and the more experience you get will help you guys rank up. Also while most don't (myself included) like watching replays it's definitely vital to doing so as you can see if the setups your opponent is doing is real or fake which gets you ready to face that same opponent again or that character in general.
Big fan and a stuck in Silver scrub on a heavy losing streak, It would be an honor to have you tear up my replays with your PHD level analysis! CFN: OmegaSpark
That’s a really nice series! I like that you also picked a match where the guy won to start out - I think that (speaking as a pretty garbage player myself) it can be discouraging to have a match you get washed on reviewed on stream and showed to everyone, because it feels like you’re doing nothing right sometimes. I also like your approach of being really positive about the whole process - like I’ve seen a few match review series and some of them get a bit too condescending sometimes, your sense of humor worked great. Really good series dude! Can never catch streams but I love watching the youtube videos.
Appreciate you taking time to help a lower ranked player like that. A lot of streamers at your level wouldn't do that. You're such a classy dude Smug :D
Hey Smug, I just wanted to thank you for indirectly helping me win the UltraChenTV tournament this past week! I had to get through a couple of Mikas to make Top 8 and I remember how you just jabbed the dropkick on CPT NA East 2. I went to the lab before my matches and literally only practiced jabbing different timings of the dropkick and lo and behold, I manage to make it to Top 8 and then win it all!
You're the best Smug. I've been secretly waiting for a while for you to do a series or something on tips and tricks to improve! We played one time a while back when I was an Ultra-Bronze Laura, and slowly I made my way to a Gold Ed, but I plateaued there and then my computer's graphics card went kaput, so I haven't really been able to play for a while. Even so, the info in your videos is always golden. I especially like it when you take the time to go back and edit your videos with a slowdown so you can show/tell us your decision-making process and optimal moves in whatever scenario you find yourself in. Keep up the good work, man!
This video confirms that Smug needs to do live commentary of viewer matches. The citizens of Duff City need it! And of course we'll provide plenty of turkey neckbones and extra buttery biscuits (subs and donations) in exchange. Do your duty Mr Mayor!!
You know what's even more interesting is that the Akuma is literally playing like he's listening to Smug's advice. You can tell that for their rank/level of play that they at least are using fundamentals but not over extending themselves because they probably don't have the muscle memory for for complex combos and set ups yet. i say that because you and I know that an Akuma with a full stick of butter is trying to style on you every chance they can get.
@@planetjanet3845 The big issue I'm noticing with that Akuma is that he's not *doing* anything in neutral, always waiting for what the opponent does. This will serve him well probably all the way up to diamond, but eventually he's going to have to learn that he's got to stick things out in neutral or the opponent is never going to make any mistakes if they know what they're doing. That, oki, and optimizing his combos.
If he only knew how to optimize better his combos and use oki, I could see him in gold. He not only got fundies, he didn't crumble under pressure and threw random EX demon flips like some akumas do.
That was great, Smug helping the commoners (not excluding myself)! And funny as always. In all seriousness though, I think it's great that you're coaching a bronze player, as opposed to higher level player. Bronze players are (probably) closer to when they came in, so it's helping new(er) people not giving up. Also more advanced players are probably already better at finding their own tutorials, information, etc. And to be totally honest, I'm way closer to bronze than platinum myself, so I can relate:D.
永遠に頑張って, SMUG! You know what's weird? Playes SF2 as a kid, forgot about it for several years, started watching SFIV for Snake Eyez, and I finally started to learn how to play the game after watching Smug.
I wish other top level players were half as chill as Smug. Need a lot more of this and a lot less making fun of worse players in casual matches. I don't want to point any fingers but 👉Hookganggod.
Do more of this!! It's one thing when I watch the replays, it's an entirely different thing when a pro watches them and points the wrong stuff I can't see.
Great Video, Smug! I have to start watching your channel more. I had a friend who taught me how to play Virtua Fighter the same you taught SFV in this video! Love it, man! Keep it up!
I'm coming from mk and db fighters, street fighter 6 is coming out so I just started sfv to get ready 💪fighting games are lit bro I'm so glad I started
Thank you SMUG for give us some lessons about Street Fighter. I'm still in bronze league, but I take all the tips in this video to sharpen my skill. Much love from Brazil. And see some of my replays: AX-9999
Cheers for the heart sir. In all seriousness tho (my opinion incoming) alot of people out there wana improve at fighting games and you're well known and well respected by that community seems a no brainer. No offense intended :) but hey what do i know lol
This is awesome SMUG! A great way to help the community. I like the positivity, hopefully it encourages others to keep playing. I think you could speed up the commentary so you could get through more matches, but still, cool!

Cheers for the heart sir. In all seriousness tho (my opinion incoming) alot of people out there wana improve at fighting games and you're well known and well respected by that community seems a no brainer. No offense intended :) but hey what do i know lol
Yes, i came here for the "KEEP IT CLASSY"
This is awesome SMUG! A great way to help the community. I like the positivity, hopefully it encourages others to keep playing. I think you could speed up the commentary so you could get through more matches, but still, cool!
Job well done with these "Help Me" videos. Always good to see decent content like this. 👍
What a nice dude SMUG is.
Oh Smug... You make my day so much better ahahahahha You are an amazing person. Truly. Thx for making such great content and treating us so well. You give everyone life!!
I appreciate this kind of video a lot, good shit smug
Capcom to Smug: Why you gotta do us like that, man? Now we got like 5000 new Warlords online! >: 0

Yo this video was actually amazing. This should definitely be done again. Just my opinion
bronze no more, it's time to learn

Learning frame data is why I can't invest in fighting games I wana fight not be doing math after every move lol
You learn as you go
Lmao you’re not doing math. All you’re doing is looking if it’s negative or positive
Please send this video to LTG, he needs it badly lmao.

Yet again affirming himself as my undisputed favorite player.
How to get better at any game: Just keep playing bruh

Kiwi Johnson same this is actually very helpful
If only we could all be so lucky and get personal 1 on 1 time with the doc
"He's the bas mama jama on the road" wise

CFN: caulkhead
Imagine Smug driving and command grabbing all the other bad mama jamas on the road.
'is she about to flash her mooga joogas at me?' XD
this was a really good break down
I also noticed Armandood never quick rises when it usually should always be done when you're down.
