What is the huge problem with making women hot? I know why this stigma exists. However, if it's safe and profitable, what's the big deal? See? Now even Japanese devs are covering their female characters up more and/or making them look more manly. What was wrong with SFV's creative freedom?
@@arrhythmiticd8089 So, just because a female character is covered up means no sex appeal or hotness? Sure, whether or not a character is hot or not is certainly subjective, but I still think it's quite reductive to think whether or not a character is considered as such solely being dependent on how much clothing they are wearing. This goes for the real world as well.
31:08 Vesper, look closely at the air recovery on Marisa's 6HK target combo. It's not a super cancel, it's a link because the second kick now launches them higher.
Damn that makes more sense then just simply making Gief better overall. At least the stomp target combo buff looks somewhat significant in his ability to mentally pressure the opponent
We can see ken had a counter hit on his crouch light punch to go into medium punch, which is a much needed nerf. Might not be a thing and they just used counter hit for fun but i think they did it on purpose. And thats one of many nerfs for sure
@@ΚρανίΩ dude you raise a really good point. I was wondering why the CH was needed. Imo ken is like, maybe his huge combos are avg damage, but his light combos and medium combos are ridiculous. Making crlp not link to stmp is a good step towards making him not so fucking aids to fight
Hi, Sim main here. It looks like the standing medium kick into medium flame into lvl 3 is a buff, because at that range, I'd be hesitant to spend my lvl 3. It has a tendency to whiff if you cancel it and the opponent is not like right next to you. At the tip of the medium kick, i feel like that's normally too far to connect
Im late to the video: Zangiefs cr fierce pre-patch, best damage/combo you could originally get off of it was an extremely early hit in their jump hitting PC on anti-air with the late active frames. It would pop the opponent up high enough for Gief to come into OD borsche dynamite. Otherwise, it would only create a hard knockdown setup. But with its 12 frame startup and awkward hitbox and mental stack of looking out for neutral drive rush, it was hard to land consistently or at all. I hope they extended the hitbox backwards to better fend off crossups. Note, Zangiefs lariat also on PC in neutral is only combo-able similarly when it lands extremely early in their jump but late on your active frames. Tldr; both cr fierce and lariat kinda really ass. I hope they fixed the moves issues opposed to only adding properties to an already slow and risky and very baitable move.
I wonder. Does anyone think its wise to have dynamic stock gain mechanics built in. That is do what they're doing with Ryu which should have always been there. Any character that obtains an install stock should be able to do unleash it when they want. I KNOW they didn't give it to Lilly or Juri. Which bugs me. I think if you give up time in a match to get the buff you should be able to do it whenever you want. I also like the idea that when the buff is active the threat isn't ALWAYS there and it's there when you need it not because you got the hit and used the move so now its gone and that's if you even get the hit to begin with
AKI getting a costume that's basically "I just got off work and we dress business formal" is absolutely hilarious EDIT - I made this comment quite prematurely, I hadn't seen the front up close
I feel like this season may be a breaking point for a lot of people who wanted drive rush toned down/gone - it seems like there are reductions in drive gauge loss, allowing people to use drive rush more
If the only interesting thing they could showed for Ed is his crouch LP isn't -5 on block anymore then i fear my boy don't get any good stuff. But again, i will wait for the complete note.
Kimberly can combo into OD air grab at mid screen off mp,hp target combo>dr cr.hp. It just costs 5 bars of meter and heavily scales and is basically only good for styling or ending a round by going into lv3. Letting her do that cheaper and with more combo routes is a good buff that hopefully ups her damage.
I'm glad that Akuma's legs aren't weirdly normally muscular (like Ken's legs looking small compared to his upper body) and made it ultra beefy like his arms so it doesn't look disproportionate.
the only reason kim players would use her super bar other then for her lvl3 is if they're getting the killing with it, otherwise using the super bar other then for her lvl3 first is never a good idea, that being said rushing to get her lvl3 passive buff and then having her super 2 more easily accessible will make a difference for sure. It is nice wont have to TK her ex tatsu to get super 2 now
@@brandaggedon9719 but u can do the same thing with level 1 why use 2? if they only have 1 bar of drive gage lvl 1 should do the job as well. I still think I rather rush lvl3 buff then putting them on burnout. Securing a round I could somewhat justify it, but just to put them on burnout not really. That's just me tho u do u obviously.
I honestly think that denjin change is going to make Ryu top 10. Hes going to 2 touch akuma.... so i don't think all us Ryu players will drop him for Akuma.
good ryu main?? none of them are cancellable. why WOULD you use them? you literally gain nothing from using them. the new change means the tcs have a purpose now
don't really care about outfits in this game. I ain't paying the bullshit prices for them, and this is coming from someone who bought nearly every bundle that SFV offered because they were ON SALE ALL THE TIME.
Lukes nerfs are almost def because people are getting tired of seeing menaRD win everything. Game devs gotta be responsible for declines and increases in games marketability nowadays too, unfortunately.
@bigjc5546 agree to disagree. No Luke's are placing like Mena is, and it's arguably his main (yeah we all know him for Blanka blah blah blah). I'm not glazing shit, I'm neutral on Mena as a player. I'm not a superfan but he's arguably the best right now. Sure other pros use Luke but who's got comparable notoriety right now as a Luke MAIN. Not pocket Luke. A MAIN. That are producing the same or comparable results? I'll wait.
@moanasandford4029 respect, but that's one. And he doesn't place as high as Mena overall. Nor in as Many tournaments. Most casuals and intermediates don't know about him either. So, my point more or less remains.
@@accordingtoabe2211 he made second at many majors until he got his first place and ticket to Capcom Cup where he arrived in winner's final and finished 2nd to Uma. Only very casual players don't know him. Those same players also have not the slightiest of balance.
Honestly these “changes” don’t address or change the problems with this game. Ya some characters need nerfs but the mechanics are what make dumb characters dumb. There need to be adjustments with drive gauge, drive impact knock back, burnout, drive rush. The drive reversal on wake up is barely helpful when it’s slow to come out and still unsafe and easy to punish. These aren’t a true season 2 changes
Most meter build from SA2s that allow follow ups like Chuns SA2 are nerfed. Wake up reversal is faster and safer. Also, some of these changes are going to let the lower tier characters build up resources quicker which is a problem for them.
@@MrMooMoo088 suspected faster, but going from 20 to 18 frames doesn’t make them not slow. And -6 is still an easy punish. It they were -4 at the very least, I wouldn’t complain. Even losing your turn, you should be returned to a more neutral point even if they block. It’s not like throwing out an ex dp. For some characters, drive reversal is their only way to escape pressure without blowing meter on supers. Doesn’t seem fair to still be punishable for wanting to break out of the situation
Of course her outfit is a bit F.A.N.G like, It's her master afterall and 1 she simps-idolized for. At the very best they didn't give her puffy sleeves like F.A.N.G's SFV outfit, wouldn't work with her snake asthetic with the claws on her hands.
Nakayama listed AoF2 as one of the games he played in his youth during the Eurogamer interview, so I wouldn't be surprised if it is indeed a Mr.Karate reference.

The Marisa buff is kinda nice, because if that heavy kick hit confirms into the tc on a meaty set up go head and lv2

My prediction is behind the top tiers recieve buffs they gonna lost something in exchange.
Oh yeah. I’m sensing they’re not telling kens and lukes bc we know how they love to downplay

The stage music change is what I’ve been wishing for.
Something that I noticed is that Ed has studs on the wrists like Steve Fox, idk if thats a boxing thing or just a neat design for the coat
I also saw the footage that zangief headbutt is +7 on hit🎉
