This game is freaking sick.

True story from early on when I was still learning.

I was up against a Bryan player, my kryptonite. He was absolutely destroying me, he kept using this one string on me over and over and over again. I had no idea what to do against it so I kept trying different things. Tried backdashing, interrupting with jabs, ducking, sidestep left, nothing seemed to work. But then I found you could sidestep the third hit of the string to the right. So next time he uses the string on me I sidestep the third hit right and launch him. I was so hype that I dropped the combo after the first hit and jumped out of my chair and shouted "THAT'S RIGHT, DON'T YOU *EVER* USE THAT STRING AGAINST ME AGAIN!"

He still beat me four or five times more in a row. But he stopped using that string against me. That's when I realized I loved this game.

10/10, strong recommend, but definitely not for anyone who isn't willing to be patient and learn.
