That 1 hp thing in SFV is fucking HYPE.

It is. Also encourages people to keep fighting, instead of just giving up rounds to build meter.

Also doesn't let the player in the lead get too comfy.

tokido vs snake eyez now

 

[Ferrio]

Everyone deers in the headlights with that running throw.

 

[Askherserenity]

Snake Eyez has been pretty fun to watch so far.

Omg godlike. The ending.

 

[Ragnorok64]

These team compositions...

I think I have a crush on Snake Eyez

Get in line.

 

[TheSpoiler]

I think people will like it in the beginning because it's the opposite of SF4. But then it will tire on people in matches if they play a zoner or weaker rush down character and have to end the game.

You can

Throw
Use a critical art
Basically open them up with footies

Looks like people can't rely on dumb chip damage to get them through rounds. People will stay dangerous the whole time.

It is. Capcom really wants people to level up that yomi.

[hey_it's_that_dog]

Yes.

Tokido playing the game like he's had it for years.

He had to be just fucking around for those first Snake Eyez rounds.

 

[Qvoth]

I still don't see how people are relying for chip damage to get them through rounds when it's being used to end the round they basically all but won.

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

I need to go to bed but this is legit exciting shit.

 

[Mechanized]

Mike Ross put Tokido to bed son!

 

[Dark Ninja]

I like watching these guys play n all but can they get the Beta up

 

[Ferrio]

Mike Ross was just playing the wrong game.

 

[Anbec7]

Is there going to be a stress test today?

 

[TheSpoiler]

I still don't see how people are relying for chip damage to get them through rounds when it's being used to end the round they basically all but won.

Because, as Combofiend says, it defines the round at a certain point. Once you land an Ultra, you know for a fact that it's over. In SFV, they have to have enough meter to do a CA and land that shit for it to work or open you up. So therefore, there's a lot more leeway and allows people to actually take that win back and keep the opponent on their toes.

SFV is far more about footies and reading your opponent's mind. Killing with chip flies in the face of that.

Edit: See it like this. I'm losing a match against a guy and I'm on one pixel of health. All he needs to do is jab me or throw a fireball and I'm out. I could block, but that shit won't matter.

That was 4. In V, that person has to put in work the whole time, else I can come back with some big damage (since the damage is already really high), some setups, whatever. It encourages the player to not give up and that he can still win if he chooses to play defensively. He's not punished for blocking unless he guesses wrong and gets thrown or a CA hits him.

 

[TheOGB]

The China stage kinda sucks and it's a shame it's the only one with the cool new stuff.

 

[cackhyena]

Mike Ross popping off.

 

[galvatron]

[Coda]

LOL poor Mike.

 

[GorillaJu]

Mike "just doing what he wants" Ross finally gets put to bed.

 

[hypernima]

I'm guessing the beta is over shame didnt get to play much.

 

[pizzacat]

Didn't gootecks and Ross say they would do good in v because it's pure fundamentals? Remember hearing that in one of their videos

 

[Renekton]

They say a lot of things.

 

[Qvoth]

fundamentals like footsies are obviously very important in this game, just look at birdie, jab to headbutt to super deals like 40-50% of your health

 

[GodParticle]

That no-chip death thing is probably the most interesting mechanic in the game. Will definitely make matches very interesting when it comes down to a single pixel

 

[GorillaJu]

Wasn't it called "cheap finish" when it was introduced in Alpha or am I remembering that wrong?

 

[Dark Ninja]

It'll be hype when everyone forgets that chip deaths can still happen using the Critical Art.
