you have changed the trajectory of my fighting game experience, thanks bro

It is so awesome seeing new generations discover the footsie game. It completely changes and enhances your understanding of fighting games!

I've now reached Platinum 2 and feel like I'm just beginning to umderstand fighting games.

Haha it's a great feeling! Good job on the climb

Street Fighter 6 is my first traditional fighter game ive ever actually wanted to play and i want to get good enough to enter tournements. i will be watching these to learn

Awesome Luke Cosplay! xD

Sometimes understanding this concept can be hard. Thanks for explaining visually.

Good to see another upload from you and I’m excited to see more!!

Charismatic and straight to the point with no padding, great stuff man.

Thank you so much! Great explanation, very helpful for all the beginners (myself included) that are new to street fighter who are picking up SF6. Can’t wait for part 2!

Its simply amazing how well those old sonic hurricane writings have held up after all these years. Thats the beauty of fighting games how after all these years the core fundamentals of street fighter have changed so little over time

This is really well explained! I've been playing these games since we stumbled across the newly released SF2 at a service station, and I have learned SO much in the last 12 minutes! Please keep making them! Also, really loving the throwback references to where these strategies evolved from.... Who knew!?

I’ve played fighting games for a long time, but you break things down so directly and simply. I always get humbled and realize I have more to learn😅 🙏

You sir have got yourself a new subscriber. I haven't read this thing in years. Nice to have you go through it again

Fantastic explanation and examples of good footsies! It's very cool that you're doing a guided video breakdown of such oldschool essential material to learning neutral in Street Fighter. Neutral is all mind games, it's not the same game as escaping pressure, or hitting your fat combos off hit confirms. It's all about conditioning your opponent, and it's a very complex concept, that's much harder to just practice in the lab. You gotta get a sparring partner, go online or go to locals.

hey I just started watching your content. SF6 is my first Street Fighter and basically my first ever "real" fighting game (I played lots of Smash but yk) and I just wanna say thank you so much for making these and translating the footsies handbook directly into SF6. your explanations are very clear and concise! I play (modern) Cammy and I'm trying to integrate this into my gameplay :D

No problem! Glad the vids are helping. Also, Smash fundies are super hard to get good at as well, don't let them try to convince you it's not a "real" fighting game 😏

As a total noob to SF6, this was great info. I will incorporate this into my practice sessions. Thx. Looking forward to the next installment!!

Broooooo your fighting game tips are always so good! Much appreciated! I suck at street fighter and this makes me want to play it more and get better!

Appreciate the kinds words! Really recommend sticking at it! SF's a super fun game to slowly learn

Thank your bringing more awareness on such an overlooked part of street fighter. People tend to focus so much on flashy combos and gimmicks but the heart and soul of street fighter has always and will always be about learning solid fundamentals and a deep understanding of the neutral

Great video and breakdown. Looking forward to the rest of the series

Great video, looking forward to part two. I've known about footsies since I really started to pay attention to the FGC back in the early SF4 days. But actually understanding it and implementing it into my game never really happened, mostly because I haven't played enough. I'm playing a ton of Street Fighter 6 and specifically with Cammy so this is perfect for me. Keep up the good work.

I can relate, I myself have picked up Cammy in 6 and have been working really hard to become the best Cammy player that I can possibly be

Thank you so much Mikey. I just stumbled on this video on my feed and watched, it changed everything. I hit Master the first day after implementing. A better neutral was holding me back the whole time. I thought i wasn't using the drive system properly was holding me back. All i needed was a solid understanding of chapter1-4 to complete my style. Thanks again

Playing a wide variety of 2d fighters will make you such a better player overall. You will definitely learn concepts in this game that you can bring back to your anime games also. Get striving to reach your full potential brother

You explain all of this so well! This really illustrates how much of a rift there is between players like myself and higher level players simply based on the amount of critical analysis they can do about their opponent and what they are thinking. Thanks for helping us take these steps to become stronger fighting game players!

This guide is awesome. Thanks Mike!

I have absolutely no idea what's going on right now but the ST6 theme song told me not to give up

I started to learn the techs in FGs in 2017 on SF5. Luckly, a friend of mine really early on teached me these concepts and the game evolved right before my eyes. You start to appreciate the neutral game so much. It's a fence match, so cool

Wow. I didn't even know that there was a Handbook on Footsie. I just pressed the Sun button and Like button! Great Video

This is the video I needed, great explanation

i just started playing this game online and there's a lot to get used to, from character specific things to general mechanics, but this seems to be a good way to keep things simple and effective to focus on, and then develop from that. keep these coming please!!

Nice! To be honest I'd focus on the little things first like just learning your character and what other characters are doing, the game mechanics etc. But once you're comfortable with the game, these are definitely the things you will want to focus on. Hope you enjoy your time with SF. Super fun game and it's very satisfying to improve in

Yo I really need the continuation of this series man... literally feel in love with the game now

Great video looking forward to more, appreciate it man

So I know you are technically following a script/guide here, but i gotta say your videos are such a delightful style of free flow, yet informative and engaging that it really makes you stand out to me. Great job on these last few vids, hope they keep coming for a while!

HE'S BACK

Good tutorial I always recommend the footsies handbook to improve your neutral game

I am glad I found this video. I never knew what neutral or footsies really was or looked like until I faced a masters player in battlehub while being a low rank player. He basically destroyed me just by being patient and punishing my normals that I was randomly throwing out. He didn't rely on specials, DIs or DR cancels. This really opened up my eyes on what I need to work on once I get past the gimmicks and learning some frame data.

You’re back!

Man I’d really love all the chapters! Very helpful

This is my first street fighter and I’m not a familiar with fighting games and the strategies. I’m really fascinated with how much depth there is to playing these games and I’m excited to learn more. Thanks for the video!

Great guide thanks a lot, I think it's worth to mention to people to be careful if they drive parry because the opponent is pushed back less by the hit

Dude insanely good video thank you

Thanks, Luke!

Thank you !

explained very well thank you

This was so good pls make more

something im trying to do is ask myself why i am doing something. i would always just press buttons in neutral because thats all it looks like ppl do on the surface. but in reality it's for what you've explained here. i'll be trying to incorporate these things into my gameplay.

nice infooo

I can't wait to copy paste this stuff to blow up Kboomafoo!

Thanks so much!!! 🎉

The footsies handbook is such a good resource after all this time

Next video could be how to practice these! Nice vid

The example two that you gave, that you said never happened to you, literally happened to me today 😂

as a guile player that hyper fighting video was beautiful

this helped allot the 2 thing helped allot tbh i play manon and use standing heavy kick spacing it out then they do a fierce or try to punish then it whiffs so i can combo then i use standing heavy kick and dash in to grab to a 50/50

yea.. he gets it!

been using these, shit actually works.

PRICELESS KNOWLEDGE

Need to learn it, because I learn I need to be patient in a fighting game

This is probably why my characters are stuck in silver, i didn't know any of this coming in as a new player. Thank you.

Spacing traps are something i need to learn along with option selects and reacting to counters/punish counters to maximise my damage, i don’t understand if im supposed to react to the message popping up on screen or just know that my move’s gonna counter for the most part?

Interesting.
