Practiced Bison today and it's crazy how there are moves and strategies I have completely overlooked even after playing Bison almost exclusively +50h. These past few days I've tried a bunch of different characters and the most difficult thing for me is movement and buttons. I thought learning new characters would be much easier in SFV compared to SFIV since combos are so simple but now I see how little combos mean in the big picture. When you don't have the character movement down, you don't have setups. And when you don't have setups, you won't most likely end up in advantageous position. Then there are the buttons which are just as important. It takes raw hours to get accustomed to every individual button and be comfortable with. Even if you were in the right place in the right time, if you don't know which buttons to press subconsciously then you just give up whatever advantageous position you could have had. Then when you finally have movement, buttons and combos down, there is a very real chance you have developed a flowchart, pattern, autopilot which is very difficult to try and change on the fly or change at all. Now you need to go back and develop some variety, create more paths and options from different situations by taking risks and using different maybe not-so-optimal combos. I'd really like to be able to use multiple characters but it's just so much work. But I'll give Alex a legit shot.
I cannot imagine toilet-free life.
Kebabs have a unique attribute compared to other consumables. To unlock this effect you need to wolf down a big ass kebab really fast, like under 10 minutes or so and wait for the effect to kick in. If done correctly your movements should feel unbelievably heavy to the point where you literally cannot move at all.
