Silver!

15 hours in, steadily crawling up the ranks. I’ve never been this into a fighting game since at least Tekken 4. Love it!

Got to Bronze!

Some background…I’m 40 years old, haven’t played a Street Fighter game proper since the SNES days, and haven’t played many fighting games in general over the past 15-20 years. I tried online with Mortal Kombat 11 and noped out of there with quickness. I started playing Street Fighter 6 on my Switch 2 a little over a week ago and needless to say I’m hooked on it. The gameplay is so satisfying…every match online feels like a chess match in the best way possible. I’m a Cammy main and after about 9 hours (mostly online) I finally reached Bronze yesterday! Almost gave it away there because my heart was pumping so hard. Minor achievement in the grand scheme of things, but for someone that never really got into a fighting game like this I was pretty damn happy! It’s been super satisfying learning the game and steadily climbing the ranks. There was definitely quite a bit of up and down there hopping between Iron 3 and 4 before I finally made the push.

I know I’ll get flamed for this lol but for full disclosure I’m using modern controls on a pad and plan to continue doing so until I get into the higher ranks and am comfortable with all the ins and outs of how to really fight considering there’s a lot of depth here.
