The importance of frame traps can’t be denied, but figuring out how to perform them, or even what they are, can prove difficult to those new to the genre. In a recent video, jmcrofts offers a quick definition of the term, shows when frame traps can and should be applied in a match, and then goes on to demonstrate how to practice them in Street Fighter V’s training mode through the use of various options.

As with the other training mode videos we’ve featured since the release of Street Fighter V, this information might be old news to the majority of our readers; however, if you know someone taking their first steps into the realm of fighting, have them give it a watch. It may help them enjoy themselves more when throwing down for Fight Money.
