22:24 The reason Blanka doesn't use the super gauge is because it's a kara cancel. The original reason why kara cancels even exist are to allow you to mess up an input and still get what you want. Since simple motions are harder to mess up you can only kara cancel into more complicated attacks. Normal into special, special into super and etc. So, since the purpose was to fix a mistake, if you kara cancel a metered move the meter would not be used after you cancel it. That's why Blanka doesn't use meter, he's kara cancelling the super into the hop because the priority system was broken.
S2 Akuma: Red Fireball, wait to see if opponent CORRECTLY jumps over it, THEN V trigger cancel the whiffed fireball and do an enhanced DP that does 180 damage + hard knockdown.
Someone on reddit was trying to argue that s3 abigail was broken because "no one knew the matchup". Had to go back and watch the old s3 videos and my god he was a menace. Oh yeah the Blanka glitch was so annoying. Thank God there were barely any Blankas.
For me I would say that S1 Mika, S3 Abigail, S5 Seth, S5 Cammy, and S6 Luke were the strongest. With the most consistent characters throughout the game’s lifespan being Akuma, Rashid, Cammy, Karin, Bison, Guile, Urien, Poison, Kolin, and Ibuki. All ten of those characters were strong for a lengthy period of time and were very prominent in tournaments.
SOme hounorable mentions: S1 Ryu s2 Urien s2 Ibuki (could say due to vt2 season 3 as well). S2 Ken S2 Balrog s3 Kolin (the one where her Vt2 was 2 bars) S5 Cody & Laura
Dude, recently discovered you but holy shit, it is CRIMINAL how few subs you have! This is top tier content and the passion you have for the subject material is tangible! You -def- earned my sub!!
S3 Abigail was so overpowered that he... never won a major, and only won a single CapCup circuit event - a lightly attended event in LatAm won by Itazan. It was held the same weekend as a much bigger event in NYC that drew all the major international talent. That got "ItaGail" into Capcup finals for the year, where he managed to make it all the way to Grand Finals, where he promptly lost to the actual problem child of the first several seasons of SFV: Rashid
I was pretty consistent at anti airing air legs in S1, but it was a problem with mix up options. I would anti air onuki pretty consistently when we played.
I think Luke is a relatively healthy top tier. I'd much rather have a character who has no losing matchups than a character who has a ton of absurdly winning matchups.
Season 3 was super broken. I’m honestly not sure that Abigail would have been the best character in the game long term had that been the final version because of how strong characters like Akuma and Rashid were in that version.
Akuma, Rashid, Cammy all posted better results. The unblockables scaled to the point where if you just took the damage it was very minor factor, and you could always just EX DP / Super / Armor it if available. The fifty frames of charged HP startup gave you all the time in the world to gather your thoughts and reversal. If you were clueless and tried to press buttons, jump, or backdash you got blown up.
Number 1 is definitely lack luster. As you have mentioned the glitch is patched soon after it is discovered and it would be banned from any tournament. On the other hand it is surprising that Akuma or Cammy aren't in the list as they were consistently good for so long. Aside from one health buff in Season 2 Akuma only got nerfs for a long time before people stopped considering him top tier.
Akuma got more buffs to his unused V Trigger along the way. Rather than toning down the strong V Trigger capcom "balanced" him by making the other one stronger. Meanwhile, FANG nerfs are inbound for Season 7...
@@shaunmcisaac782 that VT was irrelevant up until recently and afaik even now VT1 is the better choice. Let me give you a list of some of the important nerfs Akuma got - increased cost for air fireballs (you could do 4-5 of them before now only 3) - you cannot cancel into VT on whiffed fireballs (remember H. red fireball into VT activation?) - f.HP was plus on block (+2 iirc) - MK was safe on block (it is still hard to punish but it was -2 before) And finally his side switch got nerfed which seems to be the final nail in the coffin for players like Tokido.
i honestly expected you to say season 1 Balrog or Karin Kanzuki. those characters are the reason this game was called fishing for a while on steam. super forgot about blankas time stop, lol
This was an enjoyable video and one I learned a lot watching. I do wish you'd picked someone else for the top spot since Blanka's inclusion is more about glitches than meta.
18:40 couldn't xian have quickrised to get out of this? I can understand not reacting in time but he might have been able to neutral jump it if he did.
Hey bro, I am writing to inform you that a very high quality RUclips channel named Great Big Story just made a 3 minute video on Capybaras that is excellent and I thought you should know.
My favorite part about lists like this in hindsight is thinking about all of the downplayers at those times. I can't tell you how many people in discord tried saying all of these characters weren't that good and "just learn the matchup bro" at these times. Discussing this stuff with people online is such a waste of time because of the absolute mental hurdles people will go through.
I remember when I first tried to learn sfv Abigail was meta, facing him every game made me uninstall the game and I didnt try to pick it back up until 2022
You have a great voice for content, clear and concise, love the vid. It's very interesting to see what was considered broken in sfv over the years from your perspective as a pro player. As a casual I didn't care what was broken and what wasn't I just wanted to play the game learn and have fun. The reason I find this vid so fascinating is the fact that none of the characters everyone shat on until they got nerfed by capcom is in your list. Season 2 balrog is a good example. He popped trigger then u died. Everyone complained about akuma despite the fact that only tokido was winning anything the character. Everyone complained about m bison, Everyone complained about guile being too strong. Urien and Seth were complained abt as well
The crHP nerf wasn't needed along side Mika losing... everything else. I don't believe her command grabs lost damage, the big loss was that her V-Skill used to charge to level 2 instantly.
I'd argue Dhalsim is the best in Street Fighter V final update, it's just the execution is so high that he's not someone you can pick up and play like Luke.
Nash was the character that benefitted from the season 1 input delay and they reduced the lag input after evo in season 1. Mika's crouch heavy was additionally nerfed, so it wasn't just the frame delay reduction that made Mika's tools not as viable later on. And of course after season 1, Mika was never relevant again because the nerfs she suffered buried her in obscurity. Thanks to Capcom for ruining the most fun character made in decades.
0:46 ah yeah 1:40 good balance imo 1:59 right 2:30 uh huh. Yeah i heard season 1 sfv pretty bad 2:58 i know a famous content creator who does 3:43 dang 4:06 air legs i see 4:24 yeah dhalsim being good for that 6:27 oooh yeah that famous mika player luffy i remember. Tho this is nuckle du. Hm 7:17 dang 11:35 ricki ortiz not familiar with this player 12:34 that on abigail sounds odd 13:33 hhhuh 19:14 seth? Akuma? 19:32 OH??? Blanka of all characters that’s crazy 22:47 jeez
Gief is irrelevant against most of the cast lol. The only people he really has a chance against are pressure characters, which he still struggles against in neutral anyway. He's basically only good when someone mistimes their pressure or whiffs near him lol
Thank god this game is dead, game was absolute dog ++++ on release. I played it for the first month and the last month and made me leave the FGC for seven years. Back for SF6.

Maybe not overpowered, but Nash was also benefiting from S1 input lag.
So much that he kept paying for it for years after first balance patch.
If there’s a list of SFV characters that got kneecapped the hardest, Charlie definitely makes top three.
Blame infiltration
@@ivaerz4977 man was too cracked 😭
Nash players deserve it 100% they all complain and suck at the character

Dio Blanka: S+++ tier
Everyone: F tier
Some may not know the lore, but Broski lost a 90 win streak just before recording this video.
Blanka glitch is basically a Kara cancel with wrong priority. Very funny.
So hyped for the future of Broski content. Keep it up!
One of the big highlights of SF5 for me is the vid you made about release (?) Luke and all his normals ranging from pretty decent to absurd
I love these informative long form videos, keep up the good work broski
SOme hounorable mentions:
S1 Ryu
s2 Urien
s2 Ibuki (could say due to vt2 season 3 as well).
S2 Ken

Whats the music in the Luke section of the video? It sounds pretty good
This is the closest Broski will ever come to a SFV tier list.
Love the throwback vids

I was pretty consistent at anti airing air legs in S1, but it was a problem with mix up options. I would anti air onuki pretty consistently when we played.
I remember getting hit by the number 1 spot and didn't play again for a month, I already hated Blanka and that broke my brain.
I would include Balrog when his turn punch was plus on block.
10/10 video, extremely entertaining!
the thing about ricki keeping her cool against S1 Mika is kinda funny, since she mained S1 Chun
Great vid!
Season 3 abigail carried me to top 8s in locals when i just started playing the game lol
First video of you I see, and it's really good.
I'm not much into street fighter, but anyone interested should watch.
For Mika clap was also 6f start up LOL. It was a better whiff punish button than st.hp FREE her Nomal Crouching throw was also +2 after dash
I’d forgotten about season 1 R. Mika that’s the only character on the list I didn’t see coming
I think Luke is a relatively healthy top tier. I'd much rather have a character who has no losing matchups than a character who has a ton of absurdly winning matchups.
Oh my God, never new about the Blanka glitch. That's terrifying. 😅
I always love vids like this.
Honorable mention for season 2 Balrog
ONO put that BLANKA glitch in there before he got FIRED !
You thought it would be Luke, but it was me... Blanka!

@@-8h- It was discovered like a year after Blanka's release iirc. And then got patched as soon as possible.
@@-8h- It existed for a year but no one knew it because no one plays blanka
I always felt Season 1 KOFXV Terry was like Luke. An above average allrounder with no real flaws and crazy damage.
i honestly expected you to say season 1 Balrog or Karin Kanzuki. those characters are the reason this game was called fishing for a while on steam. super forgot about blankas time stop, lol
i was tryna figure out who in the hell is in the top right of the thumbnail and i cant picture blanka there at all
This was an enjoyable video and one I learned a lot watching. I do wish you'd picked someone else for the top spot since Blanka's inclusion is more about glitches than meta.
Gives me PTSD having lived through this shit especially season 1. Stopped playing when Abigail came out in season 3.
18:40 couldn't xian have quickrised to get out of this? I can understand not reacting in time but he might have been able to neutral jump it if he did.

Abigail terrifying
They were cooking with a witch pot when they made this character
Fast fall Oro
Nice video! You can make the title a little more clickbaity by adding a number, like "Top 5 most broken characters in SFV history".
surprised there wasn't release seth in this video. Is luke really better than him?
I remember when I first tried to learn sfv Abigail was meta, facing him every game made me uninstall the game and I didnt try to pick it back up until 2022
I miss when G could spam v trigger 1 lol.
Good ol Luke
I seriously forgot about Star Platinum Blanka
surprised no G i remember the sweet salt

So s1 chun li had bad moon?
Blanka has a jojo super
You should have had an honorable mention
exactly my thought
@@JardsonJean he could've added someone else like Akuma or Urien
You could do part 2

I don't believe her command grabs lost damage, the big loss was that her V-Skill used to charge to level 2 instantly.
Oro is gonna be tier 0 in season 6 of sfv trust me
Abigail. R.Mika, Luke, Blanka and..
*Who else?*
My brother played R. Mika in S1 ..... makes me sad 😢
Song? @Broski
It sounds a lot like Snail's House, but I checked mad tracks and couldn't find it ;(.
playing on a PS4 against a Luke on PC = strongest character in SF5
i want mika in sf6!
Abigail s3
I always hear people complaining about Laura and yet she also never seems to be viewed as OP
Mika was a fair character for season 3 but not season 1.
Good stuff
The worst part was the character down players and apologists
Luke is the T7 Jin of SFV, very easy gameplan and too good all round
Jin needs much more execution, wasnt dlc and us far from being the best in t7
I wouldn't even put Jin in top 5 right now but before the f4 nerf yea he was a menace.
Jin is hard to use though
he never used to be
I’m not gonna lie I thought you were just a fgc twitter person and not a RUclipsr
broski you're beautiful did you know that?
I'd argue Dhalsim is the best in Street Fighter V final update, it's just the execution is so high that he's not someone you can pick up and play like Luke.
