I'll be honest, I hate her as a character and don't like her playstyle but, I don't understand why the Japanese players think she's weak. She's got some high-risk stuff but, she's overall very hard to deal with plus her vortex game is super cheap. If you have a half-way decent footsie game, you can definitely do very well with Laura so long as you don't completely turn your brain off.
@@Intrenxic_Dark They tend to rank Ibuki much lower than over here too. It might just be a case where they value neutral/footsie's over mix-ups/vortex play

I am trying to pick up Laura the last few months. This video is very helpful, especially as a cross check against some outdated guides I got use out of.
@@DML897 true for the most part and after some experience with shift I'm realizing you've gotta have intent if you land it, not as braindead or free as I thought. Laura doesn't have much to convert into from shift and I'm still having trouble punishing anything with consistency. I will keep practicing and hopefully I can get better, season 5 is super fun though. Feels fresh.
I really enjoy Laura. She's a pain to deal with, but I like a Mix Up heavy semi-grappler. Nothing but solid buffs means I think she is more viable. But V Shift really has shaken things up for the best. Though I read the patch notes and well...RIP Seth and Akuma. So time to drop the glass cannons and main Laura for a bit. Actually nah, Im manning Dan. Because man he was fun in Omega.
Neither Seth or Akuma got significant nerfs? Their health got dropped a bit but that's on par with their damage output and offensive options. Seth got away with murder in these patch notes in going mostly unchanged.
I saw you were using the K follow-up out of the lairat moves. Is there a difference between using the P follow-up and the K follow-up beyond what side you're on?
Not sure if I actually asked this on a different video or if I just thought about it, but I don't see any reply in my notifications, so: What happened to your master rank?
The V-Shifts changes everything so much that makes reversal a joke by comparison, but is nice to see how they buffed the grapplers in the game according to this universal change.
Both to make it look like season 4 had the same number of characters as the previous seasons, and because having the fifth game have five seasons looks better for marketing, I think.
They've said Season 4 would have come out a lot faster if not for covid. It was still only 6 characters (Kage, Honda, Poison, Lucia, Gill, Seth), the same as other seasons.
I think zangife had a huge play rise at some point in Japan last season it might have been because of a top player but if I remember correctly a lot of J top players ranked him as A tier in there tier list
Zangief was THE best throw character in the game outside maybe Mika. His damage alone is brutal. He didn't need major buffs to compensate for v-shift like others did.
I'm with you. Playing against Laura feels like you're just guessing constantly and, even if you happen to guess right, there's still a possibility that she can screw you over. The only way to really beat her is to hope that she makes a mistake or to never let her get started with her shenanigans. Plus, her voice lines and bimbo personality are annoying as hell while having to deal with her. I wish they'd just added a young Sean to V instead of his dinghy older sister.
It's crazy how much v-shift has shaken things up. Laura's tier went from "?" to "?????"
Capcom: We're going to make Japanese players say Laura is good if it's the last thing we do, dang it!
She's been good
@@taylorbee4010 Yeah, but Japanese players have always kind-of looked down on Laura for some reason

They have to be trolling to look down on a char with this toolset.

Sure feels great when one of the characters I struggle with most gets buffed.
And characters like Juri get left in the low tier dust bin
@@XytaVuramee juri's foot dominatrix think makes me uncomfortable
@@DatBoi-mo9vc I hate fighting her too but that sounds like a plus to me
I hope you have a good day, reader! 😉
You too have a great day
Thank you man. I´ll be in every video. Great job.
I am trying to pick up Laura the last few months. This video is very helpful, especially as a cross check against some outdated guides I got use out of.
At least we got vshift, right guys?
Hahaha........
cry harder
I guess capcom buffed the thunderclap because of V-shift
As a brazilian, Laura makes me glad Blanka is in the game
Prepare for Oro then. Have fun with him lol
@@genericalias6307 oro is brazillian?
@Little Gamer wait am i going crazy or is that espaniol? if so i thought they spoke portugesse
@@deathbringer9893 Spanish(Español) doesn't use tilde on anything besides Ñ and portuguese also uses Ç called "Ce Cedilla".
That is portuguese.
@@deathbringer9893 yep i think
Damn, they buffed Idom again?
Bonita Boyz!
Well, It's over boys... Idom is probably gonna win Capcom Cup once again
jfc Laura got *more* plus frames?
They really need to stop trying making the concept of vt2 work it needs like buff her vs2 or something if its gonna be even worth considering
vskill dash is too valuable that vs2 was never going to work . VT2 is for having fun, while VT1 is if you want to be competitive.
Both her second V-Moves go directly against her strengths as a character and it’s kinda sad
Man Laura ain't OP but she is number one on my list of "I don't wanna play that character" these plus frames give me P A I N
I main her.. I'm not super good or anything but I know enough that she really does not need more plus frames lmao I'll take it
I mean outside of V-Shift her defensive options are still shit. So get in on her first i guess?

why would they do this
I like Laura.
Sakura
Juri
Laura
I think we should be friends
Ngl, I was expecting more nerfs than buffs for Laura lmao

Why the hell Capcom buffed this character?!
To compensate for v-shift.
I'm not a laura main but thank god we have V shift now
I honestly don’t think she needed a buff 😂😂 and Juri still don’t get no love 😂😂😂
Yeah but why?
I saw you were using the K follow-up out of the lairat moves. Is there a difference between using the P follow-up and the K follow-up beyond what side you're on?
There was once, but not anymore, I think they have identical okizeme timing now.
Oppai.
Prepare those F's in next video.
Bruh why?
Not sure if I actually asked this on a different video or if I just thought about it, but I don't see any reply in my notifications, so: What happened to your master rank?
You did ask, and I was never master.
@@Bafael sorry lol. RUclips notifications are so wack they're nonexistent. Could've sworn you were master rank
The V-Shifts changes everything so much that makes reversal a joke by comparison, but is nice to see how they buffed the grapplers in the game according to this universal change.
Thank you for making this.
This is going to suck... Now you have to worry about Laura mix-ups and pressure even outside of v trigger smfh
cry harder
As if Laura wasn’t already annoying enough online
Ayyyyyyeeee
Why is it called Season 5 despite being the sixth year of this game?
Both to make it look like season 4 had the same number of characters as the previous seasons, and because having the fifth game have five seasons looks better for marketing, I think.

@@Bafael Didn’t Seth come out before covid? I think they were talking about season 5. Not that it’s a huge deal.
I think it’s because you’re counting the release date as a year it really did come out 5 years ago
Wasn't her follow-up from command grab nerfed? I think she's -4 now or something.
Nah
Dude Laura is kinda cute bro
That is until u see her massive teerh back in season 1 when she won a round
NGL the fact that all the grapplers BUT Zangief got big buffs is fucking hilarious to me. Why do Capcom hate him so much?
I think zangife had a huge play rise at some point in Japan last season it might have been because of a top player but if I remember correctly a lot of J top players ranked him as A tier in there tier list
because zangief can become the best char easily
@@Lazycandle Whiiiich makes no sense because he's pretty goddamn bad and this update only made him worse lmao
@@deathbringer9893 Sure if you actually make him a character. Ooh a viable character, how TERRIFYING
Zangief was THE best throw character in the game outside maybe Mika. His damage alone is brutal.
He didn't need major buffs to compensate for v-shift like others did.
Yeah, this is what we need, more Laura horseshit lol.
I don't know why CAPCOM decided to buff an already annoyingly good character, but okay I guess.
She still needs more.
I never asked for Laura buffs. I hate this character
Lol
cry harder
fucking cry harder

@@Intrenxic_Dark you know theres a language option right she has 2 voices lol
unnecessary buffs
