“Don’t verify that” i feel ya lmao

From "fuck ED" to a whole character tip guide, Brian F has truly grown

[@ShineChromatica]

Ed has truly grown too

[@krasmazov009]

People should really share their training mode drills instead of "just go to training mode". Thanks Brian.

[@ShineChromatica]

yeah the more you see people share their methods and drills, the easier it is to build your own

Who whould've thought Brian would enjoy Ed this much. I'm here for it, though!

[@kerbonaut2059]

I saw the 2000 MR Ed Brian, no need to worry.

[@VerbalLearning]

Even though this doesn't have to do with Ed, this video made me realize that having a system similar to Strive's in game share-able user created comboes but with training mode settings would help a lot of players get to practice various useful set-ups and scenarios that they don't necessarily know how to setup in training mode themselves. Capcom did already pre-package SF6 with a few and that's really nice but there's no way the developers can cover for all scenarios in advance, so allowing for the players to make these and share them with each other would be really helpful.

[@gigadon120]

That feature should be in 100% of fighters

[@erno6155]

Yeah sf6 already is amazing with its features, but I wouldn’t know what else to even add if they add strives combo search/create system

[@Raxyz_0]

I reached Master with him 90% thanks to safe jumps. People reversal a LOT in regular ranked matches, lol.

[@dragonofthewestt4077]

I’m currently in a custom room, when I put on this video; and he said “I hit 2000 MR on Ed, don’t verify that.” I checked since he’s on my followed list. His ass is not at 2K MR 😭.

This channel has really become my go to for all things sf6. Love the big tournament coverage, the guides and just general gameplay. Keep up the good work.

[@EDarien]

Thanks, Brian. I was a SF5 Ed main and I still like him now but obviously it feels like learning a whole new character compared to what he was. These tips are super helpful.

[@IVISMiLESIVI]

What a fantastic guide. Doing meaty fireball in the corner has helped my corner pressure with Ed alot. Now I just have to practice the meaty charge flicker. Also the training drill in the corner you showed as an example is GREAT and I will be adding this to my various training mode drills. Thanks!

[@rodanjo4613]

Legit just got Master with Ed after switching to leverless because of your last shortcuts video. My ability to anti air also skyrocketed when I made the switch. Good videos Brian keep them coming!

[@BryanakaDwish]

seeing how to set the training dummy to do what you want to practice is so helpful. Appreciate that.

[@kbnguyen6470]

This is amazing! Currently hardstuck D3 with Ed. Wasn’t using half these tips so definitely labbing it asap. Earned a sub from me. Would love to see a breakdown of your approach to neutral and block string pressure. Find myself losing a bunch of sets to straight up better buttons sometimes!

[@magusomnius3201]

Thanks for the tech Brian!

[@Jandro1083]

Thanks for the corner meaty Flicker setup, definitely going to incorporate this. It should work even better against parry now after the last patch.

[@EdokLock]

It's soo nice seeing you enjoy ED

[@nandoren]

Thank you so much for this! Definitely adding it to my gameplan

[@JonnyHale]

Thank you!

[@codemonkey377]

Thanks Brian! These tips have really helped me up my game! I still can't land those dps, but its getting better.

[@JrSpore]

ty Brian

[@johncarnabucci4460]

Thanks for these tips! Personally I found your jumping medium kick tech to be the most helpful! I don’t see many people talking about that and I’ve been struggling to use Ed’s air moves besides j. MP and j. HP. Good stuff here!

[@miscobuddy7817]

Thank you brian, I didn't know about the light flicker meaty setup in the corner.

[@FaeRegalia]

didnt expect brian to be an ed player but im so here for it

[@A2ZOMG]

8:31 the actual damage optimal safejump DR route is 2MKx2 5MP TC. You can get this off almost every cancelable normal including PC 2LK. Ed breaks 2K damage off 2MP/2LK DRC with said route. Also canceling 5MP TC into H Blitz is a consistent midscreen safejump.

[@rodrigosantana9199]

Important tip: Most of the times you want to spend your lvl 2 out of an ex blitz for big damage, drive recovery (you get the 2 drive bars spent in ex blitz back) and corner carry.

[@BiggBossChanel]

Another layer to meaty flicker in the corner is that if they are parrying on wake up you can just like hold flicker, let them hold parry and have them waste meter

[@vincentFGC]

you have no idea how much I needed this video, just hit master and tanked from 1500 mr to 1180mr 😅

[@sladedonedidit]

Maaan I’ve been struggling with ed. Love the character a ton but I can barely stay above 1200mr . Hopefully these new Brian tips will keep my nose above water

[@VanguardPolicy]

Totally legit Ed main who purchased him and can lab him watching this video so I can learn how to play aga-better with him in my ranked games thanks bro

You’re the best 😭

[@EasterDude]

I don’t play Ed, but videos like this are essential to learning the matchup from the other side. A lot of stuff I wasn’t respecting before that I’ll be much more aware of. Also, can we appreciate how well made this character is? He’s not particularly oppressive, but he’s decent at the very least. He’s unique as hell in this game and has had a ton of cool discoveries over the past few months. Capcom knocked it out of the park with this one.

[@mikey22355]

Who do you play? I keep meaning to learn Ed as a second character. You’re right, he’s so different and looks pretty fun to play.

[@ignacioalmonacid6153]

Let's go BRINE! 2k with ED!

[@El-Burrito]

Ed seems really cool

[@hippodippo9100]

goated video

[@PomadaGaming]

Sfv theme off the bat i dig it

[@PomadaGaming]

1:31 gotta 4:01 yep,not always try to parry

[@valsione38]

Jump medium kick is absurd it even negates zoning at some point because people freak out that you can reach from that far.

[@Vadered99]

As always, the safejump section DOES NOT NECESSARILY APPLY against a Lily with stocks. She has a frame 4 anti-air, which means safejumps are not safe against her no matter how plus you are. You can bait it with empty jumps, but that's a callout.

[@kevingriffith6011]

7:01 "You think the psycho power is your ally? You merely adopted the psycho power. I was born in it, molded by it! I hadn't experienced the most important day of my life until I was already a man, and by then it was Tuesday." - Ed to JP, probably.

[@halfling_barista]

How do you like those audio technicas, Brian?

[@jimmy97]

Wish the title mentioned that this vid was Ed specific.

[@enderwalker6528]

Using cross cuts as Ed isnt really a good idea, as proper cross ups almost always beat his DP. And if you are at an an angle where you can cross cut then the cross up will whiff, making trip guard a better option (punishing the landing frames). Eds light dp has a very good hitbox and can hit slightly behind him, which is worth remenbering. If someone is jumping out the corner then doing jump back HK is an amazing air to air, but the drill Brian F showed is also viable. However you lose the corner.

[@shwoistensleeves233]

10:50 Can someone explain what makes a corner safejump more effective against charge characters as opposed to any other character with an invincible reversal special move?

[@Brian_F]

Because the next interaction, they literally can't reversal because they lose charge. After blocking your safejump if you go for throw, a dp character can just mash dp. A charge character however literally loses access to their reversal because they give up charge to block the safe jump

[@enderwalker6528]

​@@Brian_F one thing worth remembering though is if they parry the safe jump (not even PP) then they can keep their down charge, however then they open themselves up to throw. Ofc.

[@Gleapgoogleplusisgone]

"it elements charge character reversal options" there's some piece of information I'm missing here, how is it different for charge characters?

[@CosmonautSpiral]

[@kenshin391]

Does anyone know of a converter for the PS5 so I could use a PS4 controller for SF6 because this PS5 controller ain’t it?

[@chachawho435]

Brooks wingman

[@adlerjeramie]

Modern Ed has access to DP motions... really hate that people still don't get that...

[@JustFrameParry]

5:03 this is not actually an input trick anymore in 6. capcom added a special exception where half circle forward has a higher priority than dp and gives you qcf moves instead

[@niblanopepper7]

maybe im misunderstanding, but the point was to get qcf moves (eds fireball) in this vidya

[@JustFrameParry]

@@niblanopepper7 yes. it's just that in previous games the hcf thing was not 100% consistent, if you did it really fast you could still get DP instead of fireball. in 6 they made it consistent by adding an exception where hcf override DP inputs if you have a QCF move

[@niblanopepper7]

@@JustFrameParry yeah, I was just confused because you said it was no longer an input trick, which makes it sound like they removed it, instead of making it consistent. Cheers

[@infinity-kg9xn]

BRIAN DONR SAY EDS THEME IS LAME AND THEN USE IT. also hi

[@deathmetalinyourface]

I'm confused. Why does it show that Brian is +5 after doing the first part of his meaty fireball, but when I go in the lab, it shows that I'm -5 on block?

[@Brian_F]

You must not be doing it correctly and leaving gaps/doing it late

[@deathmetalinyourface]

@Brian_F Thanks. I didn't even know you had to be precise with the timing. This is all new to me coming from MK.

[@bdc_ky]

You gotta hit the meaty psycho spark at the end of the move to get more + frames

[@deathmetalinyourface]

@@bdc_ky Thanks, bro. I've been practicing it in the lab. I'm on pad and can't get it after dashing forward because I get a dp, and it's very inconsistent when I try to do it after c.LP. I get it somewhat easier after s.LP so far. I still don't understand why we get plus frames with that in those situations, though.

[@zacharypilot8256]

I know the goal was diversifying your personal roster, but you seem to have taken to Ed far more than you did Aki. Do you see yourself using him in tournaments if only as an alt?
