Hey everyone! I’ve been playing mostly Blanka with some Kimberly and just broke into Silver 2 with my Blanka! I’ve really been loving this game more than any other street fighter or fighting game before. How have you all been enjoying SF6 so far?

Game is phenomenal. SFV was my first serious fighting game, and while it was great to learn on, sometimes it felt like the game was "too structured" in a way? Maybe I wasn't creative enough (only ever reached Ultra Gold after years of playing), but some moments just felt very formulaic.

SF6 feels very fluid, with normals and the Drive system working very smoothly and clearly. I still don't have Drive Rushes down yet, but my janky Blanka somehow reached Platinum with 1 light combo, 1 heavy Drive Impact combo, a simple hit/grab mixup, and a frame trap on EX electrics. I'm honestly looking forward to getting to do all those cool swaggy Drive Rush combos, and maybe actually learn some doll setplay setups.
