First off hellooooo everyone, thanks for taking the time to read this, greatly appreciate it. Anyways, title says it all. I normally play fighting games casually, mainly with friends in lobbies and such just for a good time and shenanigans. A buddy of mine I have known for years has been trying to convince me to take the time to practice and play rank in whatever fighting game is out at the moment, keeps saying I could do it if I try and that he wouldn't lie to me about it. Problem is, one the way I hold the controller for fighting games(Claw method if anyone knows) and two when I watch videos of matches or watch my buddy play rank I kinda get discouraged because in my mind, I don't think I can do it. Coming full circle, I lost a bet to him, so now because I'm a man of my word I gotta give my shot at rank matches. I've been thinking maining Bryan, but open to suggestions what others have to say, along with any tips on how to get better with the claw method or should I think about investing into a fight stick? Any tips would truly help before I go down this long, up hill road ahead of me lol
