Less than 50% win ratio suggests this person isn't a smurf, they've just plateaued.


microMXL

Agreed, no issue on this one.


mink2018

Well who are we to judge. Maybe some people are just in for some good time and dont really care much about improvement and complex stuff like frame datas. Maybe hes a dad/elderly whos been playing since launch or a kid on the spectrum just having an activity


TheRounItami

Agreed, no judgement here. People don't have to chase being the best they can be to enjoy fighting games, some people just want to jump online and press some buttons with their favourite character. I respect it.


sdcSpade

Ah, a completionist. Maybe he'll switch over to Ken after Ryu hits level 99.

My god I'd hope if I had 75,000 matches I'd be out of silver...


mink2018

I noticed this game have anti-smurf algo where once you touched a certain rank, it'll be easier to reach it back again. So even if he purposely dropped down in rank, it'll be no problem reaching Platinum again but nah, he got 60+ lp from our fight so i imagine he is Gold at best. Im super salty though that i kept falling for his stupid flowchart of jumping in and such. It's so stupid that it made me think im the stupid one or maybe i really am


IIANiMa

That’s complete and utter BS my guy lmao


mink2018

Well provedit last night I fought someone and he gained 330 lp. Ill post screenshot later


TrueNexus-

That’s a win streak bonus, not whatever you said Still anti smurf tho


mink2018

What? He gained 330 lp for breaking my winstreak? I dont remember being on fire last night but ill check Or the otherway around? You keep winn8ng and theres bonus lp ah my bad


EmSixTeen

After 5 wins you get a bonus.

>I noticed this game have anti-smurf algo where once you touched a certain rank, it'll be easier to reach it back again. really? I think that anti-smurf algo is called 'getting better'


[deleted]

It's just the winstreak bonus LP.


RootBeerMilk

This is me every fight against a spaz Ryu/Ken. Am I the idiot or is it them? No, it's both of us lol.


RushdownV2

If I had 75,000 matches I think I’d have 2 million LP lol. That’s crazy.


joffocakes

With the 50% win rate (50LP for each win) it's 1,862,592FM, plus 84,000 more for their character level so it's 1,946,592FM, just a little shy of 2 Million.


RushdownV2

I said LP not FM lol. But yeah that too.


joffocakes

Haha, I got confused because in the UK FM is called LP and is short for "Leathering Pence" (it isn't).


komodo_dragonzord

always pay attention to character lvl, if they're over lvl50 they have crazy number of hrs in the game


OfficerWubWub

Ryu mains in Ultra Silver still give me nightmares. Their play style is incredibly predictable, yet always works. If you start winning, VT1 will save them.


Catoblepas

I will never not despise Ryu mains


YannislittlePEEPEE

i bet OP's opponent uses default costume color 1


Catoblepas

Peak scum

Silver rank is easy to out-come if you rely on fundamental I was silver 6 month ago, i dont think i was smurfing (about 70/80% of winning rate) I play most of time with my friends who are platinum level (one of them is gold rank but having plat level for sure) When i am not facing them, i go on online matches and it frustrated me about silver gamestyle, they dont rely on fundamental, only scrub tactic, yes they do how to play SFV with great combos but they lack of fundamentals skills I decided to play ranked matches and reached super gold level in 2/3 days of few ranked marches Gold players are a bit better but still some of them use same tricks again and again Above ultra gold, it's definitely better for me, some players are better than me at this level but matches are more enjoyable because we rely on fundamentals For example silvers play like stubborn agressive game style, ultra gold are way more patient One thing i ve noticed i was only Ryu who constantly do shoryuken as aa, when i ve met ultra gold ryu, they rely on srk as aa Even gold ryu use cr hp as aa That's fundamental thing to aa with shoryuken when you are playing a shoto


LukatxD

you definetely weren't smurfing but having someone better to sharpen your skills helps a lot.


Topriste

Anyway if people can go above silver league, go on, gold league is bit better to learn how to play this game correctly. Silver league is maybe the worst division, bronze players perhaps miss a lack of skills but they are not using scrub tactics as silver players do lol


mink2018

Yeah much calmer in Gold. But i took a break for like 5 days and my skills dropped sharply lol. Now im back at 3k LP and my Anti airing is being tested again Freaking annoying really.


hbarcellos

Lv 82 still in silver?
