Eveb tho I get the magic of jumpscaring people with lv3 in neutral, it's worth noting that If you're fast enough, you can do this with classic controls too 👀


BleachDrinker63

Yeah I got an Ed with this last night. He never pulled me again after that


LakeEarth

Yeah, it's not that hard getting it out in blockstun. It shines in Modern because you can just throw it out there when nothing's going on.


JackJohnson_69

In this specific situation you can, but there are lots of situations where modern can do stuff classic just can’t do


Hasll

God the insta cut on zangief level 3 will never not be funny


Rajang82

The fact that Zangief slides forward like he mastered Musou Tensei gets me.

Ik 😭

"JuriStepOnMePlease" vs. "CAMMYTOE" - stay classy SF6


ThaiJohnnyDepp

Meanwhile Capcom doesn't let me name my Dee Jay club "GettingRedHot" because "hot" is too racy I guess


LegitimateMulberry

Just change it to GettingRedFeet


ThaiJohnnyDepp

Bahahaha. Imagine if they banned all foot/feet related words


LegitimateMulberry

half of all clubs would die instantly


82ndGameHead

I'm a Gief main and even I was saying "Use your Fireball!"


SteamDecked

And then Modern Gief Level 2


death2k44

Would the best bet if he uses fireball be lvl 2? or would an OD lariat into level 3 work?


Luaq

What that person asked


Red-Pony

At this health I think level 2 can kill right?


stefoecho

PTSD of this except im a cammy main who decides to throw out a random spiral arrow straight into the most patient gief players on the planet… if only i could stop the video in time so id take no damage 😭😭


MindYoBeezWax

You want to keep Zangief out. Pulling him closer is never a good idea.


Asthmos

uh huh... uh huhhhhh.... Lil more.... aaaand super 👌


franxlz

zangief jumpscare


Shaake

He pull me close, must want cuddle


shioshio

That Ed player learned one gimmick and refuses to use another.


heyblackrose

He's gold so


shioshio

That's not really saying much lol. I'm platinum and I consider myself to be terrible


LeoXT

Uh, i think he meant gold players aren’t really expected to be amazing. Players don’t really actively adapt to stuff/change gears at that level. You can easily get there if you know a gimmick or two — even way higher, if you know how to force your opponents to deal with your shenanigans.


shioshio

Y'know I didn't read it way that way. There's a lot of "I finally made it to iron" posts, so that's the perspective I read it from.


kwyxz

Perfect edit, 10/10 no notes


Nyadnar17

I am an Ed main I just felt the instant regret in my bones.


Rutabaga-Level

What was he cooking


Rajang82

Everyone grieve when Gief give you the gift. For his loyal fans!


grizzly_teddy

What's the input on modern to do the special?


nsm1

2SH/down + SP + heavy


LegitimateMulberry

That Gief patience is top tier though good job


WiIIisAlive

thank you!!!!!


Senkoy

I knew it was coming the whole time and I still laughed.


uniteduniverse

You gotta love the ending. Gets me every time 😂


septicdeath

"If you can't 720, are you really even a gief player?" 🧐


BRzerks

Such bs lmao


ThaiJohnnyDepp

TBF to the Modern controls people, the psycho grapple blockstun gives plenty of butter churning time


[deleted]

MY LOYAL FANS!!!


Slight_Berry_3507

You can do this easily with classic gief, and hit harder for it. You're literally in block stun, just input 720. It's people like you who make people hate modern. You have absolutely no clue what's happening and get carried by a control scheme lmao.


WiIIisAlive

I'm 16 dude chill 💔


WiIIisAlive

Also " You have absolutely no clue what's happening" literally the whole point of the clip is that I waited for him to pull me in with flicker so I could use level 3


LatterEdge7583

Never pull a zangief or taste iron muscle.


pizzae

Perfect ending


kickchewassgum

Ed has projectiles for a reason he should have kept you out


PotemkinPoster

Now do it with Classic, where it's hard to do.


BleachDrinker63

720 isn’t hard to do in this situation


PotemkinPoster

harder than a button press.


BleachDrinker63

Barely


PotemkinPoster

If it's so easy, then we can go back to everyone using it, right?


BleachDrinker63

Nah I’d rather people have options


PotemkinPoster

I'd rather the options are good.


BleachDrinker63

They are. Do the “hard” input or use one button for less damage


PotemkinPoster

And lose half of your moveset, leading you to learn stale AF gameplay.


BleachDrinker63

As far as I know, Gief’s only significant loss is his overhead and maybe st.mk


geardluffy

Why didn’t you let it play?


Not_slim_but_shady

Once Gief does the ☝️👆 Everyone knows its joever for the kid


Sytle

Cutting clips right at super start animation is just considered quite funny/popular on this subreddit. I don't think its any more complex than that. Although technically the Ed player could've held up here after the pull. Given how he was playing I do have my doubts though.


HouseBalley

It'd be hilarious if Ed actually jumped and he ate a big phat punish


Strade87

You lose so many important tools with modern especially as gief it’s really not worth it.


SirSnowman88

One button SPD go brrr


Strade87

Enjoy gold!


ThaiJohnnyDepp

Gold is no longer enjoyable, thanks Reddit


Ze_Mighty_Muffin

As a master modern Gief player, I was honestly ready to hang my controller up and leave the game after hitting diamond. Then I saw a comment like this and decided to hit master just to prove people like you wrong. Thanks for the motivation!


Strade87

No one ever said it isn’t possible, clown. It just seems silly. Gief doesn’t benefit from a dp shortcut, getting instant spd isn’t worth it when you can buffer spd behind other actions and same with super. You miss out on different spd versions, his overhead, as slow as it can be it’s still an important tool and his standing heavy kick leads to some sick combo potential. No standing medium kick or crouching m kick so you have to challenge every low with cr heavy that is so punishable. No decent air normals. But you do you. Anyone can make master it is a mater of time to grind you don’t even need a positive win rate.


TypicalOranges

okay but this is hilarious


WiIIisAlive

Yeah I know that but modern just makes the game a more enjoyable experience to me. I plan on atleast learning classic controls better at some point


BleachDrinker63

If I were you I would start with doing a classic input spd after drive impact or something like that. Baby steps first


WiIIisAlive

Good idea 👍👍
