Hmm, I'll have to try out Nash in the beta since you can use his V-trigger while in the middle of the ex flash kick.

You can either teleport for some ambiguous setups or in the middle of a connecting special move for extra damage. That being said, I would love to use Ken in the beta along with another new character (to be revealed at EVO?). Watch Capcom troll us and release Ken on the last day of the beta. XD

I love it. The waterfall stage track is dope, Ryu's theme is pretty epic
 
I'm prob the only person not digging the new Ken look. Not sure why they felt he needed such a drastic redesign when Ryu, Chun, Cammy and Bison still kept their original iconic look. If they went with something more subtle like Bison, I probably would've preferred it more. Alpha Ken was a good example of them adding a little extra flavour on top of his original costume and still keeping the essence of the old stuff.
His stance and the way he bobs up and down like Kim Kaphwan make him look more like a TKD fighter than anything imo. Kinda goes against the brothers-in-arm with Ryu thing they had going on all this time, which is where I think my major gripe lies. His moveset seem to be small variations of the same old template except with even more emphasis on his kicks since his feet catches fire every chance it gets (a little too overboard for my liking tbh, but I'm sure YMMV from person to person). No crazy kicks or Shippu is definitely disappointing, not digging the new Super either. He kicks you away then backs off (why even do this bit? lol) and then lunges in again to faceplant you with his foot. Then again crazy kicks has been missing since forever and Shinryuken in SFIV was a pretty damn sweet ultra and set the bar rather high for anything to follow up on. Gonna be weird seeing runs in a SF game though, will be interesting to play with for sure. Yea I know past characters like Guy and Elf both had command runs, but this V-Skill run seems more in the style of KOF and ArcSys type runs.

EDIT:
The difference a slight hair colour change can make lol

Those themes are eh, they aren't much of anything. Not good or bad just kinda safe and ok, nash's is a bit more. The New stage theme is alright.

The character select theme is still the best new song
 
Guys, another evo question.

One of our friends (lets call him friend A) is no longer going to evo. Another friend has joined us(lets call him friend B) . Friend A was able to buy the full evo pass months ago. Friend B only has the friday/saturday spectator pass. What are the chances that friend B might be able to pick up friend A's pass and get the sunday pass? Given that friend A will email him scans of his passport and evo tickets.

Thanks in advance!

Evo passes are non-transferable.
 
Never heard of this sponsor

Never heard of them either. It looks like they only did Hearthstone until making the decision to add Kazunoko. I hope it wasn't a "just for EVO" kind of sponsorship and he can maintain a working relationship with them for a good while. But anyways, that's great news for him. Poor Bonchan, he's the only member of Team Topanga that isn't sponsored.

Yeah I was always surprised Kazunoko didn't have a sponsor. At least /r/kappa sent him to a couple of tournaments, Bonchan didn't even have that
 
Why couldn't they forget about sfxt last gen and give us EX4 instead? Hell, why can't they give us EX4 sometime this gen?
You've got to believe someone at Arika still wants to develop fighting games. There were those stereoscopic-3D screenshots with Blair, Doctrine Dark, Shadow Geist, Hokuto, and Kairi released around the time the 3DS came out. I doubt a game could perform well sales-wise on the legs of Skullomania alone, though. EX4 with the same three guys on the soundtrack is the dream, though.

Sounds good so far

@ZVFavion Without going into full detail, Kazu is signed on for a full year with monthly salary and travel support. We are in it for the long haul.

They also have a Heroes of the Storm team
 
What was the Bum/Spooky drama from a while back? I missed the whole thing somehow.

A restream of NLBC was getting more viewers than a live event of bum's one day which caused bum to accuse spooky of trying to hijack his audience. Also lead to bum accusing Spooky of sabotaging his laptop. The whole thing just reflected badly on bum.

Spooky said this in response to the crazy accusations
