What is Frame Data? Street Fighter 6 Frame Meter Guide

[@SuperSolCoOwner]

This video should be put in every fighting game for players. Literally so good. Mandatory watch material for college courses, I mean it. Too good, sending this to all my fam that play.

@@KrestenGieseits very informative for those who don’t grasp it. Your criticism is obnoxious. For some this will be deep. It’s definitely very well presented in my opinion.

[@UNQANI]

I really love this video. No matter how many times SF6 describes it I can never retain any information. Thanks for making this 👌

[@BigNastyKail]

Thanks for watching! I hope I explained it well!

[@Tassadar4Ever]

Yeah, this is such a good instruction it's unreal. You did it 100% better than anyone else.

[@kilgornsiegebreak8527]

Exactly what I needed explained! You did a great job man! Thank you! Keep up the excellent work!

[@BigNastyKail]

Awesome, thank you! Glad this made sense to you!

[@zer0veledits]

This video along with Justin Wong's video "how to learn a new character in street fighter 6" really helped me understanding Frame Data and how you can use Frame Data to theorycraft and learn new characters without ever looking at a guide or anything, so thank you! Very very new to fighting games so it's very nice to see these games having that much depth behind it all.

[@GIANT-JAWS]

this video is litterly educational, and so helpful to understand how to win, or how you lost!

[@captaincaption]

This video is AMAZING! I'll 100% recommend this to anyone if they're confused!

[@BigNastyKail]

I’m glad I was able to make a hard topic digestible.

[@ADreamingTraveler]

I was asking Microsoft's Copilot AI about how to read frame data and it linked me to your video here among 2 others. I would have never found this video otherwise just due to how atrocious youtube's search function is now. This video was really good at helping me understand compared to some of the others.

[@BigNastyKail]

AYE, That’s super cool! Glad you found it. That’s interesting tho, yt is owned by Google and it SHOULD be the superior to copilot. What did you search into both search engines?

[@bugginout8602]

This is the best explanation video I have seen of understanding frame data! Thank You!!

[@BigNastyKail]

Glad it was helpful! It’s something important but hard to understand. Hope my explanation was clear!

[@EbonyPope]

@@BigNastyKail Partially way too fast like a lot of KZbinrs. Sometimes you mention something but don't explain it until a little later that becomes confusing. At 11:17 The counter with the green frames are 5 frames but above it you can read 6 frames? Why the dispcrepancy? You also seem to read the text above and not the frame counter below. I'm new to this stuff. I was a 90s kid playing a lot of Streetfighter 2 but this is new to me.

[@Zel-Veraan]

​@@EbonyPope so he reads, "6 frames," because that move has five frames of startup but its first ACTIVE frame is frame number 6. That active frame is important because that's the frame that will cause damage and hitstun, or blockstun if it's blocked. Every move in the game can be "read" like this. (Dropping this for new players who are curious about this same discrepancy.)

[@jtbboy1353]

This video is actually the best one ive seen explaining frame data in an easy to understand way, compared to other videos that weren't as visual nor easy to follow thanks bro.

[@Berto206]

[@FranticFoxBass]

This was phenomenal.

[@BigNastyKail]

I hope I explained it well enough for you!

[@CarissaNomadic]

This is an amazingly well made video! The only thing I wasn't clear on, and maybe I missed a moment of you actually saying it outright, is the use of the word fireball to refer to Juri's shockwave. Still, that part's intuitive enough, a projectile of some kind, perhaps what's considered a character's basic projectile...? Either way, the way you gradually introduced these details really made it easy to comprehend.

[@justinlee5047]

THANK YOU! This is was incredibly helpful

[@fliiguy247]

Great content. You did explain it very well and will hopefully help the community develop better players too. I see alot of people starting street fighter from 5 without this knowledge.

Is there anywhere where I can just find the full legend for the frame meter?

Yea in training room I think it’s called like “frame meter and you” or “understanding the frame meter”

Does the armor add to the start up frames

[@yohan4027]

I'm sitting here, sweating at the thought of this dude saying stuff i can't wrap my sCrUbby head around and he hit me with the color purple 1:03. Now im freaking out like i failed the first test: trying to figure out which part of the colored meter is purple and wondering if one of us is color blind. 🤣

[@BigNastyKail]

It’s like a reddish magenta. Definitely not purple like the parry frames. Rofl. I’m just stupid. I narrate as I play so sometimes I misspeak. Any questions?

[@Zel-Veraan]

​@@BigNastyKail I do have a question: What is your thought process/goals and gameplan when playing neutral with Juri? I know I need to play a little closer as I keep getting out-ranged by other character's buttons. I'd especially like to learn how better to use her fireball.

I really don't understand why two light punches connected in the 7 minutes... I opened the game and I'm trying to understand but I can't

I didn’t explain what a chain was. A chain is a mash input. Don’t delay your inputs. Just mash lp. I have a video on this I’ll link it Learn the Street Fighter 6 BASICS kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKKrdmCdaq9kbbs

[@fabulousloser1952]

Hi there, can you show the juri jump combos. The only fighting game i've played is GG strive, there you jump cancel, is it the same thing here? People do combos and all of a sudden she takes them in the air! Thank you in advance :))

[@AA-fp7md]

The air combo you have seen is either ex dive then ex dp or the fun ones is when juri activate her level 2 super and thats the fun part. Juri can cancel L, M, H into each other. To get a better understanding of this concept check juri's combo trial there is a level 2 combo setup that does the fancy air combos.

My fault for the late response. Make sure you’re using the dpad and not analog stick. Pad is fine, but the ds4 is a common controller everyone likes. Also the hori fighting commander is also well liked.

@italian316 weird.

[@Glitch4Twitch]

Kail or anyone; Please help me understand 3:00; 1. Why does the game show "Startup 6 frames", but the green bars (that indicate start up) show only 5F. I'm so confused by this. 2. Why does it say "Total 21 frames", but when you add it up, it's 22f? 3. Why does it say "Advantage 7 Frames", but 24 frames (of stun) minus 12 frames (of recovery) equals 12 frames of advantage? I'll def. sub if you can help me understand this.

[@BigNastyKail]

Yea sure i'll give it a crack. 1. Game will show start up 6 frames because that is the frame that the move hits on. Unfortunately Frame data lingo has been out for a LONG time and this is the closest i've seen to frame data being in a street fighter game. So the way we talk about Frame data and how capcom shows frame data may be different. But yea...5 frames where the attack CANNOT hit, only on frame 6 can it hit...hence "6 frame start up". 2. I actually dont know, but I remember having an issue with the "unreleased" video as well. I remember having to go back and change the voice over on the total frames. It may be how the game treats that overlapping frame of start up and active. It could be how they treat the overlapping frame of active and recovery? I don't have an answer but ill ask around. If I find it, i'll let you know. 3. So if you look at the meter. Ryu has to be in stun for 24 frame of stun. We have to recover from the 5 active frames, and 12 frames of recovery. 5+12=17 frames that we must go through before we can act again (not including cancels). Ryu is stuck in stun for 24 frames. 24 frames stun - 17 frames active/recovery = 7 frames advantage.

[@Glitch4Twitch]

@@BigNastyKail Man, thank you so much! Well answered---I do believe some of the mysteries lie in the fact that the game may combine an overlapping startup/active frame, or an active/recovery frame. Thanks so much for taking the time to explain this. SUBSCRIBED.

[@Superlinguini]

There should have been another option and keep reading the data simply in a box instead of what they did in SF6.

[@shmanty6307]

Frame data? Im pretty sure negative is a mindset.

You’re not paying attention to a frame, it’s just memory. Someone did a special move you recognize? You know it’s your turn. You remember a number. That’s it. This video is just the “how” and the “why”
