I get they gonna keep focusing on the avatar aspect of this game and I’ve finally come to except that but bruh, can’t we get what we’ve been getting along side actually content for the main cast?? Is that so much to ask for?? They can’t drop main cast content along side avatar content? 😂 ig capcom don’t want money in big 2025

Nahh that dj player being diamond 1 is insane 😂 the way he’s playing how tf he get that high up??

i dont think this is a fair way to judge rank inflation. a new player placing diamond 2 after winning 10 games would be absurd, but you aren't a new player, it's only a new account. while it could've put you higher at diamond 4 or 5, i still think it putting you into diamond range is good. it clearly knows you have enough experience for you to handle that rank or even get out of it. i will add that i do think the placements can overshoot at times but in my experience, as well as from watching others, it doesn't tend to overshoot you very far. as someone who started bronze and worked up to diamond, i feel like those players you fought are more or less where they are. i admit those matches were complete dominations but i wouldn't expect otherwise when they're fightint an 1800 master player. i think a part of what influenced how they play is that they almost definitely knew they were fighting a smurf (besides deejay, honestly he probably couldve pinned you as an insanely good diamond player). if i fight you when i was gold, i think i'd be losing my mind too. you don't play or think anything like a gold player and kept up constant pressure they've likely never seen in their matches. i imagine most people in that rank would want to give up or start playing in weird ways because they've never really had to face anything like it. but yeah at least speaking from my own experience climbing ranks, i don't think they play like this on average. i think the most 'normal' match was the honda one, i have absolutely seen rookie players spam DI like that because to my knowledge they don't really understand how DI works. i will say this, if there is anything that could inflate ranks, it's probably the insane winstreak bonuses. if you win enough, you can gain an entire star from just a single win. i think this is two birds with one stone, it gets smurfs/higher skilled players out of ranks they shouldn't be in and it makes new players feel much more rewarded. i don't think it's the biggest issue because i think if you do get inflated to a higher rank, you'll naturally deflate because you're fighting above your level. but i do think it should be toned down a bit, it is surprising how much you can gain from a single win in gold below. oh and as for queue times, i can't entirely say i'm surprised you weren't getting matches fast. i don't imagine many players, especially lower elo, are online around that time (at least in your region, i know you had world wide enabled). i sometimes play around 7am and i get queue times up to 4 or 5 minutes, but in the middle of the day it'd be a minute and a half at worst. i hope this doesn't come across at aggressive, it's just that i think it's hard to actually assess the players you fight when you're considerably above them. oh and to answer one question (at least i think it was a question), i think the average rank is around gold 3 to plat 1? i read this a while ago, it mightve changed since.

can anyone tell me what anouncer mod he's using ? that sounded good

The ED players played like a Gold and the Zangief players played like an Iron.

I already know I'ma have a "fun time" playing the game every time I'm matched with somebody that got "Let's Do This!" as their flair.

It's weird. I feel like both is happening. That there rank inflation and rank DEflation. I am in Plat 3, and that was HARD FOUGHT bc, getting out of Plat 1 was hell specifically. My experience with SF6 (especially as a newcomer to the series) has been this, Plat 1 seems like the perfect place for people in Diamond or Masters to take characters that they don't really know, and grind them out TO master. But, because of a few losses, they ended up in like Plat 1-2. And you *feel* the difference in skill. I remember getting my ass decidedly handed to me by a Manon and looked up their profile and see that they are a Diamond 4 Deejay with like 1000+ hours in the game. Check previous phases, and they be having like 5 characters maxing out in between Diamond or high Plat. It's insane.

I find the best time of day is between 4-7pm for me to find matches. I’m east coast Us

they do need to fix their ranking system, bring back sf5 ranked system lmao, this is hilarious.

Is there a way to turn off drive rush? I also dislike the cut-scene supers.

I agree that rank is totally inflated, but in regards to trying to guess the rank of these players: it may be hard to really judge them based on these matches because you are so far out of their league. As a result, you do not play at all as they expect and it could have completely thrown them off of their game. I think it would be better to go to the Battle Hub and try to guess rank. Players there are more used to fighting a variety of skill levels.

Another excuse to beat up on players that are not as good as you

Bro i thought that gief was bronze lol

Its wild that the lower rank is a desert cause the average player is either in gold or platinum. Which means if anybody were to buy the game and play it today, they'll be forced to pick either gold or platinum even tho it's not their lvl

I like this stuff. Looking in depth of the players of all ranks to truly see where the games completion really starts.

Im not a SF player, so i can't really say anything apart from this was highly entertaining lol But, As a lifelong Tekken fan, 14:20 is exactly how i feel about Tekken 8 Well, honestly, just about every competitive game Scrub central

Oh shit i was dumping on your Akuma the other day.

Dude talking trash about Marisa as he gets absolutely washed 😂

holy fuck i'm crying lmao

how use the special nv 3?

What Cammy skin is that?

Rng trash fighter

You guys are way too soft. If you kys because some random guy online tells you to then that is simply natural selection

These are very good tips I appreciate ya content and it was good to meet ya at evo

While I agree telling people to off themselves is taking it too far , I hate that you can't get salty at a game without being called "hater" or scrub. It's why I keep fighting games off stream, even though I am a casual and should be losing. I still can get mad at the random drive impact and people walking back. Is like you are not allowed to get mad in this PC world, everyone wants you to be the Mr Rogers of fighting games, smh.

Song name at 6:40?

Snake Eyez having a meltdown in random ranked matches is very funny to me. Youre projecting a whole lot buddy.

For anyone who wants to try out the mod, search “sf6 oblivious mod” on google

3:43 The most intelligent dialogue of any Bison player 😂

This is the flow state I wanna be in when Elena drops❤️‍🩹

12:33 this how NoahtheProdigy be playing

Ppl so soft nowadays man. How did we get here? I wish someone would tell me to kill myself and i actually think about doing it lol. You clap at me i clap back simple as that, and we go about our day. This is turning into the Feelings Game Community...

it's the smoke alarm for me 😏

some say that Terry is still trying to get out of the corner... 😂

Remember in the 80s when people told other people to go fuck themselves at the arcade and they just took it like a man and developed thick skin? No? Nobody remembers?

That's another reason why FGC Esports isn't as strong as it could an should be. FGC want to be a giant pillar of Esports but it's stuff like this that prevents them getting there. The Toxicity and harassments in the online space have taken over the FGC a long time ago and it's rooted so deep in it that even the TO's who are supposed to be unbiased professionals are prone to it, and then when they try to act like professionals they are doing it in such a shitty and unfair fashion. What Brutus said isn't true for just 50% of the FGC, it's way more than that, and it's real.

It's the constant fighting game cycle. 1. New game comes out. 2. People like it although with nitpicks on the changes from the last game. 3. People f**king hate it now and view the older games and infinitely better because people have rose tinted glasses. It's the same shit different ass.

11:01 this dude mad funny

Elder low tier god

Bruh. This seems so SOFT tbh. I'm heard and said a lot worse. Its the internet ffs. It just seems like the FGC and the internet has gotten soft.

"You are not allowed to be aggresive, sling insults or be hurtful in the *FIGHTING-GAME* community. This community is a *SAFE-SPACE."* ~Anime Leftists in the FGC~

true ❤❤❤❤❤

Doesn't anyone in this community know how to be a heel? This dude seems more like a jackass than someone who can be funny. Eldergooe is like Skibander with lesser talent.

No type of loss would make me want to tell someone to off themselves…no sympathy for Goose. That goes for anybody saying stuff like that or racist bs…get that crap tf out of online competition.

Yall niggas be so soft. Who would ask kill themselves because somebody told em to. Like get over it

It was funny up until he unironically told someone to unalive themself. You're free to say and do what you please, but you're not exempt from the consequences of your words and actions.

(Full disclosure, I'm commenting before watching the video. Say what you want, but you can't call me dishonest lmao) Some might get upset or generally disagree with me heavily, but fuck it. If I was a TO, I wouldn't care. Unless a person is starting actual physical altercations with other competitors, or destroying property and/or pieces of the establishment; Then to me, it's fair game. If you have an issue, take it up with them outside the tournament. And no, I don't buy the "SpOrTsMaNsHiP" argument. Nothing about trash talking, or even nasty things like slurs and insults breaks the integrity of playing a video game. Block that shit out if you have to, you'll end up stronger for it. Sick of seeing people getting banned over things outside of the game, especially when those actions can justify other shitty policies that hurt more people than help.

I get that its salt but at some point its like "aight bro calm the fuck down". Btw Im not saying you agree with what he said. Going out ya way to tell someone to off themselves, kill themselves ect. Doesn't matter how shitty a fighter is, how bad a game is, you dont go dm the person all that shit. Whether its 50%, 70% or whatever of NA, calm that shit down. With what happen to you and the whole evo japan thing, I always tried to give the context of what happen whenever someone would bring it up, "yo, you gotta keep in mind folks do go out their way to fuck with him and get a reaction, doesnt make what he said right but just be aware." This is different than what happen with you, he was the aggressor, you werent. And again, not saying youre defending him cuz you literally said he deserves the ban. But yeah, hope you been well and taking care of ya self.

FGC is a buncha thin skinned pussies. Back in the day there'd be actual hands being thrown and guns pulled and then next week you'd all just play again. Genz and Alpha are wimps.
