Learn How To Win In Street Fighter With Free E-Book
Street Fighter V is out today, giving players a slew of new characters to master as they battle their fellow fighting-game fans. It can be an intimidating genre to get into, which is why you might want to take a look at a fantastic (and free!) e-book that breaks down the fundamentals.
Patrick Miller's book, From Masher to Master: The Educated Video Game Enthusiast's Fighting Game Primer was released a few years ago – before Street Fighter V was available – but his excellent advice and guidance is as relevant as ever. It's an exhaustively detailed (and generously illustrated) guide on everything from positioning, mind games, and advanced combos. Tim Turi swears by it and, as someone who has faced off against him in several Street Fighter IV battles, he is an annoying opponent. He credits at least some of that to Miller's book.
Considering how Street Fighter V's online is currently not having the greatest time, you'll probably have some down time between matches, at least for a bit. You may as well make the most of it, and check out the book.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
