In this segment of the video, the content creator discusses modern controls in Street Fighter 6, focusing on character strengths and weaknesses in a competitive setting. The video provides a tier list categorizing characters into four tiers: Modern works (characters benefiting significantly from modern controls), Strengths in modern (characters with advantages in modern controls), Nothing special (characters that do not gain much from modern controls), and Don’t bother (charged characters). Specific emphasis is placed on Dhalsim, who falls under the “Nothing special” tier as he does not gain significant benefits from modern controls compared to others. The video explains that although Dhalsim has some advantages with one-button inputs, he does not lose much compared to other characters and does not derive distinct benefits from modern controls.

In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses the drawbacks of using one-button special moves in fighting games, particularly for charge characters like Honda and Guile. They explain that using one-button special moves can lead to damage penalties, lack of benefits, and difficulty in executing precise moves, ultimately making it more challenging to play effectively. The speaker highlights that charge characters still require the player to hold specific directions to charge their moves, making the one-button feature less advantageous and sometimes even detrimental.

In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses the pros and cons of using a modern control scheme in fighting games. They highlight that charge characters may not benefit from modern controls as much due to added difficulty and obfuscation. However, characters with frame one anti-air attacks can greatly benefit from modern controls as they can perform these moves with a single button press, emphasizing its value. The speaker specifically mentions the importance of having a one-button anti-air uppercut and praises characters like Luke for their medium uppercut being a defining feature in modern controls. Despite losing the ability to perform a stand medium kick, Luke retains many other strong normals and benefits from modern conveniences like good hit confirms. The trade-off for the modern control scheme is deemed worthwhile for Luke, making him a more valuable character in the modern control setting.

In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses the modern controls for Luke in the game. Luke’s versions allow for combos without relying on Easy Auto buttons, maintaining the skill element with perfect timing mechanics for moves like Flash Knuckle. One-button supers make reacting easier, especially for Luke’s Level 1 and Level 3 supers. Despite losing a helpful poke and anti-air button, modern Luke retains his core gameplay intact. The speaker also highlights the strength of modern Cami, who benefits from one-button anti-air and retains most of her strong moves like jabs and kick options. The emphasis is on the simplicity and effectiveness of these modern control changes in enhancing gameplay.

In this segment of the video, the narrator discusses the ease and power of Cami’s one-button special moves, specifically the medium kick version that leads to easy combos. The convenience of instant dive kicks by simply pressing up and the special move button is highlighted, offering solid pressure and combo potential. Additionally, Cami possesses strong reaction check supers that can be executed swiftly with heavy and auto buttons. Lily is also mentioned for having a one-button anti-air instant Dragon punch, which is highly valued in modern gameplay. Lily’s benefits, including the frame one instant anti-air capability, are emphasized, making her a strong contender alongside Cami.
00:15:00
In this segment of the video, the focus is on praising Lily for keeping all her essential normals, ensuring she loses nothing important in gameplay. The discussion also highlights the benefits of using the one-button EX grab in modern controls, emphasizing its potential as a whiff punish button. The instant EX pile driver is noted for its extra range, making it effective for catching opponents. Additionally, the benefits of Lily’s one-button Dragon punch and instant EX pile driver are underscored, highlighting how these abilities contribute to her high ranking in the modern tier list alongside characters like Cami and Luke. The tier below is briefly mentioned, with characters like Ryu discussed for their easy uppercuts but noted as not benefiting as much due to some lost moves in their moveset.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses the strengths and weaknesses of certain characters in a fighting game. One character mentioned is described as good, but lacks important moves like stand Roundhouse and back heavy punch, affecting their combo potential. Another character is highlighted for their one-button uppercut, which is praised, but they lose the ability to perform certain moves manually. Additionally, two other characters are mentioned to have easy uppercuts that are invincible against air attacks from frame one, making them valuable. These characters are considered strong primarily due to this one-button anti-air capability. Other characters are briefly mentioned to lack notable strengths or weaknesses.

In this segment of the video, the speaker shares their opinion that charge characters in the game may not be worth it compared to other characters.

The speaker ultimately recommends against playing charge characters in modern settings due to the manual input demands. They conclude by thanking viewers for watching and encouraging them to play Street Fighter.
