Just prior to Pokkén Tournament’s console release, a Japanese player by the name of tonosama666 compiled a video filled with information on many of the unsafe or easily avoidable attacks in the game. Earlier this week, a translated version of the video made its way on to YouTube for English speaking audiences to enjoy.

The video does an excellent job pointing out where unsafe situations occur, and offers a nice selection of possible punishes. Though it is based on the Arcade version of the game, nearly all of these situations still exist as presented in the video.

If you’re looking only to pick up a few of these tips at a time, the video ranks each move by threat level, so you can choose which ones should be learned first.

Frame data is one of the more difficult concepts to grasp when first entering the world of fighting games. All of those numbers can be (understandably) daunting when early goals often surround chucking fireballs. Even so, learning the numbers behind everything can change the way you look at the game for the better. In an effort to help ease new players into the digits ticking behind the scenes, LaSwagga put together a tutorial discussing some of the most important situations where frame data comes into play.

A slew of moves in Street Fighter V place their users in either a +2 or -2 situation. These situations never last long, so being able to recognize when you control this slight advantage can allow you to continue pressing said advantage. This gets into the idea of taking turns, a topic Floe discussed at length not long ago.

Additionally, the video covers how V-Reversals play into these situations and also offers a brief look at some okizeme options.
