Fighting games are full of unique characters that boast an arsenal of moves they can use at any given time, and Street Fighter 6 is no exception. All of these attacks have specific properties and duration, which can be described using Frame Data; but what is it? Many people shudder at the sole thought of involving any kind of math in a videogame, but trust me when I say that learning Frame Data is worth it! In this video we'll go over everything you need to know to understand how frames work in the context of SF6, including practical applications, as well as learning how to read frame data charts. The numbers are a small part of the whole, and I hope that, by the end of this guide, you'll be able to appreciate how useful frame data can be to improve your gameplay.
