- Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2017Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseJoe Munday has connections to the FGC (Fighting Game Community). He delivers a great primer on both Street Fighter V, it's characters through May 1, 2017 (Kolin), and how to practice fighting games the best way in general. With the more recent growth of the FGC, I hope more will write clear fighting game books like these for other games series such as Tekken, Injustice, Mortal Kombat, King of Fighters, Marvel vs. Capcom, Dead or Alive, Guilty Gear, Blazbue and more. As there is a tremendous amount of information to take in and analyze to improve players' abilities and believe there's a market for them. Major publishers such as Bradygames (R.I.P.), Prima Games, Future Press, and Piggyback seemed to have stopped after Street Fighter V. More writers/players can do a service to the community by writing as Munday has done with Street Fighter V.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2017Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseIf you are looking for overall training tips, philosophies or gameplans for any fighting game, this guidebook fits for most of them.
The use of this book is not to show you every combo for each character. The goal of this book is to improve every aspect of your game from the ground up and it definitely delivers in spades!

- Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2017Format: KindleVerified PurchaseExcellent resource for beginners. Covers pretty much everything. Gives you an excellent resource to maximize your training time, while putting it in a logical order. Wish I'd known about it sooner.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2018Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThe workouts help for anyone from veteran to newbie, and even experienced fighting game vets who might need a bit of help adjusting to the meta of Street Fighter V can get some quick and easy tips on the best ways to train by reading. Much of the meta is explained in ways that go beyond the current update, and so can be applied to multiple versions of the game.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2017Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseThis book may apply to Street Fighter, but it really applies to all fighting games. The book covers everything you need to know in a very easy to understand format for casual players wanting to up there game, to players that want to start going pro. You'll never need to buy a fighting game guide again after reading this.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2017Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseA must have for both Street Fighter 5 players as well as fighting game players in general.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2019a book without any picture.
