Season 4 Patch Triggers Mixed Reactions as Street Fighter 6 Keeps Core Systems Intact
Street Fighter 6's Season 4 update has sparked a split in the FGC: players celebrate nerfs to Mai and Ed and buffs to several characters, while many lament that Capcom didn't touch core systems like Drive Rush or throw loops. Reactions range from doomscrolling rage to cautious optimism as players note improvements for characters like Alex, Luke, Jamie, Ingrid, and Lily, speculate on Ryu/Ken/Blanka changes, and welcome a new control-scheme boost that could help Modern players. Early verdicts suggest the patch leaves the meta largely intact with a few notable shifts and mixed sentiment about its overall impact.
