How To Shimmy? What's A Tick Throw!? Street Fighter 5 Q&A Tips Episode 2

[@VesperArcade]

Thanks for stopping by guys! Feel free to ask me more questions.

[@stephen827]

teach me how to play urien, not just a combo guide.

[@omnichron3374]

I wanna see a Dark Souls, or Nioh video. Alot of techniques you use transfer over.

[@ngubod16]

@@stephen827 Have you tried the Urien Discordd? There's tons of resources on there on how to play the character and Master Level+ Urien users who always give tips on how to use him/fight certain characters.

[@ngubod16]

Great video Vesper! Whats the best way to pressure a character that has an EX invincible wake up reversal. You wanna keep the pressure on them but you dont want to eat a DP in the face. Also, what is the best way to bait out a DP in a similar situation (when you have them cornered).

[@obitouchiha583]

Idk what to do when versing Akuma with Guile Can you give me some tips

[@IITheGoodLifeII]

As someone now just getting into SFV with the CE release, I really appreciate these types of videos.

[@Ziki-P]

Robert Gonzalez always glad to see new players, don’t get discouraged, lot of smurfs in the lower ranks

[@2Sor2Fig]

4:49 That explains a lot. I always thought those buttons in neutral were mostly just for stopping dashes, never knew it was also to whiff punish as well. I'm not much of a player, but SFV is my favorite spectator sport.

[@seandavis865]

Lold so hard at “older players can’t react to shit. “ completes the hilarity with a nod to tokido and measuring tape. Vesper on fire

[@JMRyback]

These Q&A's are great, Vesper! Keep 'em coming!

[@AgentBurgers]

Man I'm glad you're doing videos like this. This really helps new players and learn the terminology.

[@Egzvorg]

I like this episode even better. Demoing the questions and figuring out the answers on the fly helps demystifying good players' mentality. Keep it up!

[@InspectorGeek]

These videos are awesome Vesper!

[@LunkLanguage]

What you said about not adapting until your opponent does really resonated with me. I was stuck in gold for the longest time because I kept getting ahead of my opponent. I thought the way to improve my game was what I saw at the pro level. Whiff punishes, shimmies etc. Once I simplified my offense and stuck with basic frametraps and tic throws. It was an easy climb to plat.

[@cardsharpHS]

You mentioned with the "high-level shimmy" explanation, that it has little use at lower ranks. I know this. You can't force the game to play the way you want at certain ranks. For example, Daigo reckons one of Kage's genuine strengths is Shakunetsu. But just try pressuring people with them at a rank where people are like frigging *jumping beans* ...

[@johnodaz1273]

Awesome video VA. Some really cool advice and tips aswell man.

[@KN-592]

Love this video man keep it up

[@doumanseiman2645]

The Laura "vortex" : although most of her setups are fake and veeeeery punishable...online its borderline impossible. You can spam jab to interrupt her and it will still wont work. The best way is to literally do your best to avoid that situation and keep her away.

[@VesperArcade]

Yeah, sadly this is the case for a lot of characters. I literally call out loud 3-4 seconds ahead of time that Urien is going to dash on me on stream... then he does and I get counter-hit by S.MP and lose. Some characters are just meant for offline only.

[@Asdfgfdmn]

Thanks for answering my question!

[@safwataldajani7115]

Hey vesper, you know how there was a cinematic story in 2016 ( the general story where ryu defeated bison). Is there going to be another story

[@VesperArcade]

I highly doubt it at this point. I'm pretty sure there was a plan for it at some point but then SFV leaned more towards the e-sports side of things.

[@safwataldajani7115]

Wow can’t believe you answered, thanks for clarifying

[@ClemPrime13]

Gotta say, knowing your match ups is so important, as an Ed player, chun li’s standing heavy punch pressure is a pain... until you realize that it’s -4 on block.

[@ZeroGaiaForce]

Damn, bro. Really nice tutorial right here

[@TheRealEgga]

So I’ve had sfV for a while but am just barely really getting into it and learning the game any tips for a beginner? Also I’m choosing to main ibuki so any ibuki tips?

[@TheOxiongarden]

A jump-in, throw is not a tick throw. We say tick throw because of the fast recovery attack that keeps you close and then throw. It's fast and has little block stun and is a light attack. Jumping heavy throw, ex plus move throw, v trigger activation throw ARE NOT tick throws. You can do a tick throw after an jump in. But a jump in then throw is not a tick throw. A tick throw is not just throwing an opponent when you're plus. Ex dash straight then throw is NOT a tick throw neither

[@VesperArcade]

I would still consider all the situations you listed as "tick throws". A quick attack with small push back that leaves you slightly plus would be the ideal tick throw as I mentioned in the video, it's just a situation where your opponent is trapped and forced to tech or escape. Even an attack that's minus could still be considered a tick throw. I found a good explanation of it here wiki.shoryuken.com/The_King_of_Fighters_XIII/Systems/Attacking:_Throws_Throwteching#Tick_Throws .

[@TheOxiongarden]

@@VesperArcade Well, I wouldn't www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=Tick_Throw Ever seen a tournament commentator saying "Oh, what a nice tick throw ! " after a dash straight ex or ex Zonk ? Tick throws are not only effective because they put you in throw guessing situations but also because they're extremely fast. It forces you to react by instinct. For instance, dping after a jab is difficult. That's the power of the tick throw, not just the plus thing

[@Demon_Curse]

@@VesperArcade no. A minus attack can't be a tick throw. You constantly spread misinformation and lower level players eat it up. A true tick throw is +2 and has minimal pushback where you don't have to walk forward such as Karin's st.lk.

[@DomoArigatoMrRobaito]

Lot of old players playing that can't react to crap? Personal attacks Vesper?

[@ThouzandWattz]

Yo Vesper my hand healed so I'm back to grinding. I might make diamond before the end of the month...

[@VesperArcade]

Good stuff man! Keep me posted.

[@Kirre9991]

How do i shimmy with a character that has a slower walk speed like kolin? Also is there any benefit to learning more than one character or is it better to pick only one?

[@m3m3god]

U cant be baiting me with juri in the thumbnail bro

[@lafave2555]

Vesper what are some strategies for fighting cammy, I play as Gill and I get bodied by cammy all the time lol

[@水晶のピラミッド]

Good video♪👍

[@ramanmono]

Is there something we can do about this horrible matchmaking. I had SFV running for like 3 hours and got 2 online matches. Before the patch I would get matches back to back with good connection quality. Has Capcom even addressed this issue.

[@Egzvorg]

You can try finding people in discord, I'm sure there is a server for SFV

[@DJ-1Q84]

Hi Vesper, I know you play Ed sometimes and I was wondering does he have a tick throw and a frame trap?

[@ClemPrime13]

From what I understand, his standing light punch is a tick throw button. Really helps with mixing up psycho flicker pressure.

[@zomgitsgabe1687]

Isn't another solution against tick throw to dp or ex dp?

[@VesperArcade]

Yeah definitely. Obviously it's more risky and you have to be fast depending on the attack your blocking.

[@Whateverx9993]

What happened with granblue

[@ThouzandWattz]

Nice video by the way.

[@dominateturtles7985]

Um hey vesper can you please help me with something I've been stuck in a rank for so damn long and I feel like I need someone's guidance I play gill btw

[@lafave2555]

I'm playing as gill also, he's a bit slower than a lot of other characters, you need to learn all the long combos and learn to parry to be really successful. Also another random tip is that VT1 removes the limit of the number of projectiles that Gill can have on screen at once so you can have a cryokinesis and a meteor strike at the same time

[@eainsworthfit]

Hahaha ~vesper arcade~ “there’s a lot of old players playing and they can’t react to shit” so dead

[@masterasia9514]

Anyone who doesn't know this at this point(the END of SFV)- probably doesn't have the game installed anymore 💀 💀

[@subigirlawd_7307]

Throws 😌 I got a message saying I'm the worst sfv player because I threw too much 😞 feelsbadman

[@keystonelyte]

Who is worse? Someone relying on throws, or someone who can't tech throws? 😂

[@ThouzandWattz]

They just can't react to it. Keep going!

[@nixuniverse5240]

Vincent Cavanagh The person who can’t tech the throw. If you don’t know by the 945th time that a throw is coming you can’t pin that on me.

[@cravinlucy3]

Welcome to the club I've been doing that it for 30yrs and love the salt it generates!

[@keystonelyte]

@@nixuniverse5240 that was more of a rhetorical question, but yeah, thanks

[@mroblige1018]

Just practice against the computer on diff setting 4-6. It's better that you learn these basics when the computer is doing dumb shit and still learning your inputs. Also, that pressure from losing a match needs to be on you constantly. Train yourself to want to win even when you know it's an easy match. Trust me im a juri main 😂😂😂

[@jokatech]

SFV is interesting. A trash player can win EVO due to the mechanics. 😆 jk

[@amirjubran1845]

One thing is certain. It has created a big focus on fundamentals, more so than any SF game has in the past.

[@masterasia9514]

@@amirjubran1845 fundamentals of the Tier list. Fuck outta here

[@nickadt]

Whiff punishing in this game is more like wish punishing. Two years ago pro Ibuki players were dashing up whiffing HK in their opponents face and catching them with a counter hit for trying to punish a point blank whiff. Lol.

[@VesperArcade]

I used to rant about this all the time lol.

[@CashKetchum718]

this game been out how many years and people still don't know tick throws or shimmy? Yikes!

[@ngubod16]

I mean, Punk only recently learned that a counter hit adds +2 to your button and he's one of the best players in the world so that's not too surprising.

[@CashKetchum718]

King _Ragnar not surprised at all that punk of all people didn’t know that

[@ThePlasticBowl]

the game just recently got a mass of new players due to CE so for many people who've never played it before or other fighting games this information would be new concepts.

[@CashKetchum718]

ThePlasticBowl obviously not talking about them

[@numnum3316]

chrisjericho541 yes because casuals dont exist...
