Street Fighter V Roster Discussion: P-P-P-P-PATTERN BREAKER

You can't have the rosters main grappler be someone with strong normals and slow throws. There's gotta be a more pure grappler in the initial group.

If Alex is in, they could make him Gief-like, with fast, longer range throws so he doesn't end up filling the same role as Mika.

Yea the commentator seemed to imply there was a true heavy grappler with true gief spds. That's why I think Gief is in.

From what I heard, it sounded like they were just speculating like the rest of us. Hell, they were speculating about TGS's potential reveal at one point.
 
why not? if people like bifu know the roster than what makes you think people who get the latest builds to stream, some of which are capcom employees don't? come on.
It could just be Capcom UK letting a local FGC meet-up demonstrate the game. My point is that, why hint at certain characters but not know about others (specifically characters who are about to be revealed)?
 
Some are local guys and some are definitively capcom employees, and a lot of stuff was to promote discussion in the stream chat. People there definitely know the roster, perhaps not everyone but come on.
 
Since I saw someone listing the 3 returnees they want in Id like Dudley, Hugo and Urien.

Best boxer, best grappler and The Aegis Mixup King

because downplaying their knowledge is an extremely obvious thing to do?

they're obviously tight. if they don't out right know they're at least privy to cheekier hints than we could ever hope to be.

I was probably watching the guys who didn't know shit.

My point was that why not downplay all the way rather than half-assing it?

That reminds me, why haven't we gotten a hint of Karin, yet?

I mean, f'n Bifuteki knew about Rashid's playstyle two months ago, lol.

BIFUTEKI.
 
It might be because the hint might be too obvious for us to know that it's Karin. That's probably why Cammy, Ken and Vega didn't get any hint/teases.
Ono most likely didn't hint at those 3 because they were recurring characters from SFIV. Karin would fit with all of the other characters who got hints (all of which weren't in SFIV).
 

if you're not aware, scene figureheads (lel) have always been close to internal sources, and these days that's more true than ever. it's a given that plenty of people know what's what. this isn't even some whitelist joke, it's just the reality of friendships (and even development, arguably).
 
Rashid literally has a command run and guy's tatsu, lol.

Via Ono'sTwitter, our first in-game teases:

JbdYu
H36ej


Looks like a CA animation.
 
That looks a lot like corkscrew blow. I doubt it's Dudley since Ono's been trying to be misleading, like when he tweeted the pic of the banana and everyone thought he was teasing Blanka.

I don't know how Karin played too well, but I don't think she had any moves that'd have an animation like this, right?

I REALLY want it to be Karin but thats kind of a stretch.
Not exactly. Karin's hella popular over in Japan, this could be a beefed-up version of her Alpha 3 super, & Ono doesn't tease characters who were already in SFIV. Plus it's too soon for either Zen or Laura after Rashid's reveal (more so if Laura is indeed Brazilian). If Karin isn't announced at TGS, her chances won't be looking so hot for the base roster.
 
Are people automatically assuming it will be one of the returning characters? I wouldn't expect them to reveal 2 of the 4 new ones back to back, but it's not impossible.

I wouldn't mind seeing Dudley in this game though lol
