So You Want to Learn Zangief... | Road to Master
Ойындар
Another first video in our road to master series, we have the classic grappler Zangief. After struggling with him in SFV, I think I've gotten much more skillful at landing command grabs. With this, we have successfully done our first video for every single character in SF6.
The first video of each series will include a short guide/tutorial at the beginning. It won't be complete with optimal combos, but should be enough to get you and me started in ranked matches. Then, we'll see how we do in our placement matches and try to place as high as we can in ranked!
Street Fighter 6, the next game in the iconic series, will release in 2023! Take part in the Fighting Ground, which focuses on the classic fighting game experience with modes from previous games in the series. Two new modes will be available alongside: World Tour, an immersive single-player story experience, and Battle Hub, which will further expand the scope of player communication and engagement. Your Moment. Your Fight.

To a point, it's cuz it's fun. But I also think there's less mental load. You're doing a bunch of pokes and playing a timing game on the rest. Although most of his combos on more complex characters are probably muscle memory now, who knows.

None of the other characters are as fun to play with as gief, they're not nearly as quotable as he is, they're generally pretty weird (Juri, Honda, Lili, Aki) or stale (basically the rest of the cast). I do well with anyone else, I'm straight faced, when I'm doing good for even a moment, my fucking spirit gets uplifted for a moment 😂.

Yes being able to slam someone for almost half they hp in 1 hit will def do that
I have never seen Nephew talks so much during the match. That is how you know geif is awesome
Two sets into the placement matches and Nephew is already talking about his godlike reads. He's a true grappler main.
Gief brings out the pro wrestling fan in all of us.
The satisfaction in playing Gief and why people like me main him is a combination of how fun it is to incite fear as you get close to somebody plus the struggle. Getting in can be so hard in some matchups, but once you are in their face and you get them in the mix, it feels so good.

Dude, nailing a SPD as a punish is SO damn satisfying!
landing SPD is a drug. it's so good
22:20 is the most intimidating thing I've ever seen.
The Tundra Storm move only catches grounded kicks, but it is confirmed to hit literally all of the grounded kicks, even Rolling Sobat. This move will destroy a lot of Juris, as they primarily poke with their kicks, so it's fun to throw out sometimes when they come in with grounded neutrals.

I just recently started implementing his air normals into my game plan and I started to do much better in ranked.
I wish you could do something like this: play one character with classic control until getting master, and play the same character from another account with modern control until getting to master. And compare the outcome. Maybe you can do it just for one character? Otherwise it could take forever
Im convinced geif isnt that good, but my goodness everyone seems to love using him haha. He gets you so hyped. Glad i chose him as my main. Dont worry Hugo will get announced as the next dlc and itll be grappler world for real.

@Manglet762

I'm convinced he is pretty good, just not as good as others. Some stuff blatantly bad like his lvl 1 hitbox being weird, Lariat not hitting behind, and Stomp not having any noticeable use, is evened out by his varying CMD Grab ranges, charged heavy punch having a hit of armor, surprisingly good combo game that boosts his damage output even without grabs, most/all of his normals are niche but good when used right, his lvl 1 being an anti air on a character nobody wants to be close to in fear of his grounded CMD Grab, and even his leg parry does decent damage, still not GOOD, but it is so close to being good with a few tweaks, and more! The low tiers have more noticeable downsides than the higher toer cast but can still hold their own surprisingly well in spite of that....as long as we ignore Aki and even then people are split on hiw good she is.
One tip about Gief's overhead: it is a good punish for people who constantly jump or backdash because of its range and hitbox.
Nephew here giving out freebie notes on each character on how they work. Much appreciated!
Use his down down parry thing to counter any drive impact that is a kick!

@MarigoldAW functionally, with the big thing being it needs to be a nice mechanical keyboard to avoid ghosting. Its also not as entirely comfortable to use a keyboard, speaking as someone who played 60-70 hours of Tekken on keyboard solely and then 100 hours of Street Fighter 5 on a hitbox. Better overall experience, and sanhwa buttons are a plus, as well as having the controller and being able to put it in my lap for example.

@@guyguy7002 I would agree but I feel like a lot of people just want to buy a hitbox because it's "The best" input device technically rather than playing what's comfortable. I usually recommend people to play on keyboard first to see if it is comfortable playing stickless. Nothing sucks more than buying something and regretting it. You're right though definitely a better overall experience
Let's goo broo!😁
is that one combo Super 2 - down forward medium punch - SPD? Or is it an air SPD? I can't tell if he grabs the opponent right as he hits the ground or you start to jump and catch them just before they hit the ground. Great combo either way

If you 6HK it'll catch a jump back. It works a lot more then you would think since a lot of people instinctively jump back against gief.

It's very possible. The input's a bit tricky to learn but you can sneak it in during any other animation to avoid jumping. The way i do it is i slide my finger on right, down and left, press up and slide again. The game does not need a full 720, a 540 motion is enough

@@wa2d10l9 Technically there is a bit of a cheat on pad too. You can get it with going from forward to up back (almost a half circle back motion), pressing the punch button right as you reach upback to prevent the jump. You just press forward and roll your fingers back to upback and press right on time, takes a few tries to get it down but then it's actually easy!
My moves don't do the same effect. Why.
