And then GB would master the character and destroy Justin when he settles for the inevitable divekick char.



Alex, total grappler

V-Skill: Some kind of move with huge stun (Headbutt?)

V-Trigger: An improved version of Spiral D.D.T. (very fast jump+grab in the ground, should work on crouching opponents)

C-A: Hyper Bomb

Urien

V-Skill: I really don't know, but something to charge his V meter fast to gain access to

V-Trigger: Aegis Reflector

C-A: Tyrant Punish

I think Tyrant Punish will end up being the EX version of Chariot Tackle.

Alex:

V-Skill: Air Stampede (gotta give him some way to deal with projectiles; you could control the range by holding back or forward)

V-Trigger: Stungun Headbutt ("move" V-Trigger similar to Vega's. A grab that causes a massive amount of stun)

Critical Art: Hyper Bomb (We've yet to have a true grab CA yet and Hyper Bomb's hella iconic)
Click to expand...

His flashchop could already negate projectiles, so they could just re-use that rather than nerfing one of his most important mix-up tools (they would have to since there'd be no charge time).

I'm actually hoping he isn't going to be in the starting roster. I feel like they might try and replace his hybrid grappler/charge moveset for a traditional grappler to make him stand out from Birdie and R. Mika. I'd rather wait if it means he'll keep his most defining characteristic and a unique moveset doesn't just get thrown out.
 
lets talk DLC, first do you think there will be any dlc characters at or near launch?

I'm guessing yes, so they can test out the fight money in real world situation from the get go. I'm guessing that there will be 2 characters on or near launch.

pure hunch but i'm guessing the 2 characters will be any 2 of these 4

Juri
Akuma
Sagat
Oro (maybe unsealed)

Yeah, they've said that ideally the only time they'll nerf a character is if something about them is broken. Otherwise they'll focus more on making other characters better rather than pulling one specific character backwards.

It's not even that, they were talking about not dumpstering characters if they need to hit them with nerfs, so that they're not pulling a 2I->3S Sean and making characters unplayable in the process.

That was a fast and decisive talk. I really can't see anyone except these three being first. A more interesting talk would be who we expect for the game's first year or so. I can see Juri, Akuma, Sagat, Ibuki, Q and Guile being first year characters. Capcom loves it some Alpha, but I don't know if Cody could be made fast enough for the first year. Sakura is a strong possibility, but I'd like to see Q in a numbered SF again and he did well in the polls.

I think Guile has a really good chance of being early. Unrepresented play style (If they don;t change him) and he's connected to the current cast pretty well.

Or maybe they'll just write him out and he can go home and become a family man.

I just figured they were referring to the NRS situation with MKX where they seem to panic and nerf or overpower a character if fans are saying that characters are too strong or weak.
 
Tried Ken, Vega and Necalli in the build at VGX in the UK. This ain't the newest build with R. Mika. Ken is really funny with the dashes and feels way different to Ryu than ever. Vega not being a chat he character is also more fun. I like that you can you can detach the Claw and gain access to a command grab. Although his V Trigger doesn't look like anything special it's quite fast and can be use in combos. I also like his flying Barcelona where you can now throw willingly by pressing light punch and kick together. As for Necalli he is really fun to play and looks great. However I don't want to comment on him too much as this is an old build and I have heard he is a charge character now.
 
what if Capcom's 16 characters colored chart is just a red herring to fool people to believe that we are getting 16 characters! WHAT IF we are going to get more than 16 characters, like 18 or 20 characters! :V

Assuming that Alex & Urien are in, what do you guys think would be their V-Triggers & their Supers? Also, would Alex be more about grappling & would Urien retain his charge moves?
Click to expand...

Alex:
V-Skill: His B+HP from SFIII. Puts opponent in a hold, can do multiple things outta it.
V-Trigger: Causes some of alex's moves to leave opponent in a back turned position
Super: Hyper Bomb, no way it won't be.
 
Alex I don't see them making him a grappler but a char with grabs.

V-Skill: The stomp for unique combos.
V-Trigger: Thinking Super Armor on specials.

Urien

V-Skill: Shoulder tackle
V-Trigger: Aegis Reflector
 
would it be horrible if someone had a v-skill that allowed them to sacrifice some HP for some v-gauge? maybe on top of another effect? I'd be happy to do that for a powerful v-trigger like aegis lol

So Urien would gain V-meter from bouncing his opponent from shoulder tackle to Aegis so he can he fire off another Aegis so he can bounce his opponent from shoulder tackle to Aegis?

I'll be really surprised if they let you do anything remotely like you can do with Aegis in SFIII. Doubt we'll see crazy juggles and especially the unblockable mixup shit.
 
To quote a Fiend: "Mika is a character that has all the tools to beat any other character in the game"

I don't think she's intended to be a joke character in SF5.
 
I'm definitely looking forward to trying her in beta. Her reveal trailer won me over with the awesome voice acting and butt-smash moves, but we'll have to see how popular she is. Every new fighting game I say "okay this time I'm gonna learn a top tier character right off the bat so I don't have to get frustrated losing to people who pick the best characters" and end up gravitating toward shitty, unpopular picks because I don't like playing the ones everyone else plays.

This time though, I'm tier-whoring and picking the best char for sure. Unless Rufus is in... Fuck that guy.

Well she is a fav of Ono and being a grappler Fiend likes her as well.

I don't think there will be joke characters in SFV. Or if there are. They will be more like Yuri or Mr. Karate from KOF. Obviously silly, but will fuck your shit up.
 
SimSimIV, is the additional reveal before the Brazil Game Show supposed to be for the show or will it be before the reveal at the Brazil Game Show?
 
T.Hawk would turn me into the very salty susan I have railed against.

I am pretty free in fighting games but against T.Hawk...bodied for days.

You already get V-gauge from loosing HP, so that's be pretty worthless.
