Don't Fall For These SIMPLE Spacing Traps (SFV Season 5)

In this video, I go over spacing traps, which are kind of the opposite of frame traps. This concept is really simple and can be immediately applied to your gameplay to instantly improve it. Make sure your spacing is good, though! It is a SPACING trap after all.

[@Sumirei]

that was actually great, i didnt even think about this before

[@NotJohnnyKim]

I'm glad I could highlight this for you! Things like this trap shows that frame advantage isn't everything in this game

[@Burgaboi]

Thanks man, for reinforcing my mind so I dont take more b8

[@NotJohnnyKim]

I thought I replied to this before, but this is probably one of my favorite comments so far

[@markmontano2097]

I hope you become a big time youtuber, these videos help a lot.

[@benstubbins]

As always, great production and editing and a very tight video explaining fighting game nuance in a simple and quick manner. Keep it up man!

[@NotJohnnyKim]

Thanks homie :) I always appreciate your support

[@EDarien]

This is good, thanks. Something I can work on for my Bison and get out of Gold myself :D

[@boneworksmortal8709]

Walk and block after is one thing I haven't done, I need to lab that. The Crouch blocking hurtbox extension feature will finally be of use to me

[@ArthVader95]

Great video man! This was very informative.

[@NotJohnnyKim]

Thanks man! I appreciate the feedback :)

[@itsjustbradttv2382]

This is high level fighting tech, explained very well. Subbed. You deserve more.

[@NotJohnnyKim]

thanks for the kind words homie :)

[@baadshahmiya]

Man great video, I really enjoyed it throughout the end :D

[@NotJohnnyKim]

Awesome man, I'm really glad you enjoyed the video :)

[@Alderoth]

Had to use some of your street fighter videos to help some rumble fighters understand the concepts. Good stuff

[@NotJohnnyKim]

That’s awesome! I’m glad these videos are useful to you in your community :)

[@Alderoth]

@@NotJohnnyKim spacings an even bigger deal there (3d fighter), so thanks for the good content and thanks for being thorough!

[@TheAmazingBirdThing]

Digging the vibes man

[@NotJohnnyKim]

Im digging you man

You can even swap between frame traps and spacing traps for mind games! For example, Lucia st.mp combos into st.hp on CH however since st.hp is 8 frames and st.mp is +3 on block you will lose to a 3 frame normal if you just autopilot and go for the CH combo without confirming, however, if you space st.mp corrrectly it will makes sure most lighst will whiff and get whiff punish thanks to the range and hurtbox of st.hp. Not only that but if they attempt to interrup with a medium or heavy instead they'll get counter hit since those are 5 frames up. Granted some 4 frame normals will beat you (sakura's st.lk comes to mind) but there's where the actual frametrap comes to play as cr.mk will work as a legit frametrap at that range. Swapping between this two can really net you some mind game points!

[@NotJohnnyKim]

so me see lucia st.mp me mash exdp right?

[@ChaoticDrDoom7]

Great vid ! I would definitely like to see more vids like this bro.

[@NotJohnnyKim]

You're in luck, since I have some more ideas in the work at the moment, and many more ideas in the think tank

[@ChaoticDrDoom7]

Sounds good man.

[@ChaoticDrDoom7]

Hey, i was just wondering if you can make a it's a trap vid with ken ! My main is ken !

[@NotJohnnyKim]

@@ChaoticDrDoom7 While I would love to make videos like this, it doesn't make much sense for me to make character specific videos like that. But you should be able to find some yourself! I think outline how to find them yourself in this video

[@jimbo5266]

Really interesting video. I'm surprised I'm not seeing much more info on the topic, as it seems applicable to a lot of different games. Maybe it's just that people don't use the term "spacing trap" a lot, even though that's what it is.

[@d.howlett395]

Nice tips!

[@brandonkaws]

Love this channel

[@laz5474]

super well done video, thank you!!

[@NotJohnnyKim]

No problem, I'm glad you liked it

Wow that is a top tier comment my man. I appreciate that

[@demavendd]

Hi, im kinda new to watching your videos and i was wondering the reason for the censorship of the oponents name? I bet it is about privacy or something but i would like to know more anyway great video!

[@victorlongon]

Nice One! Akuma does not get away with this trap against Sakura and her lk heheh

[@NotJohnnyKim]

Haha yes this is true. I have been taught that one too many times

[@victorlongon]

@@NotJohnnyKim i wish I have a basic understand of every char in the game. I used to main Akuma. I never was really good, only in gold league but still it makes so much easier to play against him. You know the fake bs, when to press buttons or not and the general idea the other person playing is

[@NotJohnnyKim]

@@victorlongon yeah that's generally the best way to learn characters. I still need to do that for the rest of the cast

[@young_kdo9877]
