If I can make whatever conference they're holding, I'll try. It'll get uploaded way later than everything else though, I'm sure.
Periscope if you can please. Capcom can been late sometimes in uploading direct footage online of their reveals in these panels

Me too.
Just give her a unique intro/ending and some win quotes, and have the announcer say her name. Other than that they can have her exactly like Mika. That would be a cool unlockable.

I'd rather they put Yun and Yang in instead.
I really hope not.
EH did a post on this- Birdie's background is actually the London stage, its the far right hand portion of it, its just rarely visible on screen.
Ok, noted. I must have missed that post due to this thread moving so fast. Could you perhaps quote it for me or give the post no.?
On topic: Birdie's art might make the shared stage theory stronger in a way, with 3 characters sharing the stage and all of them having art that shows a section or part of that stage.
At the same time it might also mean that we won't even get 8 stages for 16 characters. That, or that some of the 8 stages might only house one character for now (like the hopefully still to be unveiled other 3 stages for the 4 newcomers).
Oh snap, Mexico, get hype!

so if Laura is Brazil, and Alex is NYCC, that means either Zen or Urien will be announced next
I was really hoping Karin and Rashid would be in. It's going to be very dull playing the Beta without them.
2 newbies in a row would be really odd- this is likely one of the last two vets coming up.
Yea I wanted to try more Rashid too, but here is to hoping!

yeah I was thinking the same, so Urien is looking like the next reveal

hell yeah. expanded roster for beta 2

If this is true , it seems an SF2 vet is more likely.
There is no way they will reveal Alex or urien on a random Tuesday.
A reveal like that will definitely be at an event like Nycc.
I'm more interested in Karin as I'm maining her for sure. Rashid looks like he'll end up a sub for me though. Regardless the more we get to try out the better.
For SF3: 3rd strike vets, the day Capcom graces your game with Alex and Urien will be the most important day of the game's prerelease build up. But for Capcom, it's Tuesday.
Because Raul Julia's M. Bison.
Also they sometimes reveal the character prior to the event. I think Bison and Vega both got non-event announcements too.

My mistake. I actually didn't realize the event was then. Was it revealed prior to or during the event?

first day iirc
Why in the world would it be banned here?
No. Only games that ever got banned here are GTA and God of War.
Pretty sure it's more than just GTA and GoW, though usually no one bother to enforce the ban which is why a lot of games get by unnoticed even when banned. According to wikipedia, the most recent one was The Order 1886 which was banned in UAE, Kuwait and KSA due to nudity(!!), but there's no mention of The Witcher 3 getting banned due to nudity!
Also, here's a funny one from UAE's list:
Note that none of its sequels got banned!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_banned_video_games#United_Arab_Emirates
SFV wont get banned though because it has a local distributor who's adding Arabic language, if it didn't get past who ever handle the banning, it will get censored in order to do so.
If they ever censor our local version I'll just import a NA copy. In fact I might do that anyway. Our store is way over priced and I expect I'll buy a lot of DLC. Or maybe I'll just get it on PC if there's no cross save between the two versions as it will stay with me longer that way.
And I'm surprised by that list. Some of the banned games were just displayed in the open so I didn't think they were supposed to be banned. Dark Souls was the biggest surprise for me.

So either we are getting 3 reveals back to back or no character at NYCC? I wonder what else they have to show there if that's the case.

Remind me, when is Beta 2? Mid October?
Capcom representative at Call of Ragnarok this weekend. I have to point out that ofc he isreall vague answering, but he does use "I am pretty sure" about this info. And he said he knew everything about characters coming etc.
I think it was 3 october.
The representative wasn't very clear on this, but he believed it was within a month. I would assume right after the sign up period in Japan which ends on October 14th.
That'd be extremely disappointing because I want to play Karin.
I PRE-ORDERED YOUR DAMNED GAME, CAPCOM. I DEMAND KARIN!
No, I think Laura will be announced maybe a day or two prior to BGS. Which probably confirms that we are getting a NYCC character and they want a couple of days between both announcements.
Good thing they don't owe you anything.
Well if beta is reduced, there's going to be a lot of R Mikas.
Rashid stuff:
He definitley seems like he is built to frame trap, and land crush counters.
His crush counters are his st.hp, which is a quick cancelable chop that causes massive hit stun, and his st.hk which is a backflip hop that goes over lows and causes the opponent to fly up in to the air, where you can follow up with uppercut or a sweep etc.
He does seem to struggle against characters with good normals, as he doesn't have an easy way to start momentum. His forward +mp is a forward moving 2 hitting slash, but it leaves him at slightly negative. On block you will get stuffed if you try to challenge the opponent's jab with our own. First of the 2 hits are cancelable. On hit, you can not combo or link out of the second hit, but now they have to respect your follow up.
His standing mk is a great spacing tool, but not cancelable.
his lp slash (qcf + lp) is a good poke that leaves you at slight disadvantage on block (If you mash it it will be very punishable) and positive on hit. If you mash throw after hitting with this, they will be thrown if they try to push a button. This means it is not more than +3 on hit.
st.mp is a great normal to cancel out of, but I think it is also a move that you can frame trap with on block. It moves him slightly forward, but most good buttons from other players will beat it, so it's hard to get in to range to use this.
His fireballs are terrible as a zoning tool sadly. The opponent can see the start up, dash forward, then jump over and still Rashid has not recovered. I think it is meant to be used in strings so that the opponent has to block it and you will have frame advantage, or get hit if they try to jump away. Hk tornado can be comboed out of with jabs, but this doesn't work mid screen. Ex tornado can be comboed out of with st.mp. Thus st.hp/c.hp xx ex tornado, st.mp works.
His vtrigger has a lot of potential, and even if you can combo in to it from st.mp (Or maybe you have to use a heavy move don't remember) I think it is meant to be done from far, to limit your opponent and to find a way to get in.
The vtrigger alters the momentum of every forward moving move that rashid has, and makes them safer in a lot of the cases. Examples:
If Rashid jumps through it, he will reach the opponent on the other sideof the screen in a flash, and the same goes for his vskill flip
If rashid does a slash through it, the movements gets bigger and he is safer, and it moves full screen fast.
If rashid vtrigger rolls through: full screen in a flash, but can be hit out of this easily.
if he does standing hk same thing: full screen crush counter baby!
forward+hp: full screen fast overhead, but punishable on blovk still I think?!
The best one though: his tatsu: flies full screen in a flash, beats lows, and because of the vtrigger Rashid gets sucked back to the other side of the screen again behind the tornado, so safe on block and in the position to do another one! He can do 3 or 4 of these before the tornado runs out.
forward + mp moves him forward further, but not full screen and not so fast.
I might be underestimating the frame advantage Rashid might get form the moves done thorugh vtrigger as it was hard to test.
All in all Rashid seems like an aggressive oriented character (Not zoning as I originally hoped for a little), but he does seem to lack the tools to get in safely. I might be bad though, but his moves seems to get him close but at disadvantage, and his vskills are mostly anti projectile (his flip is great against fireballers, where you flip and react with hk/2x kick) if they throw a fireball, or lk to cancel it if they don't throw anything).
Edit: Just saw some footage from Karin build, and his c.mk seems to have much more range, so that will help him a lot!!
-Other thing I just noticed: His roll goes through attacks now too, and in the build I had he barely made it through projectiles!

There's a chance they do what they did with Birdie and Cammy for beta 1 and add more later.

Why you against giving people options?
Though I didn't care to play with Miharu in Tekken 4 I didn't wish that the option shouldn't have existed. I just didn't play her often.

You underestimate Kens popularity and how disliked Mika is. For a lot of people its either Ryu or Ken they play.
