low tier bois here we come

 

[lucebuce12]

Not really interested in her as a character but I'm eager to see how she stacks up against the existing cast in terms of animation and effects. My semi-irrational fear is that Capcom is going to cheap out and somehow ruin the quality of the only truly polished aspect of the game's presentation.

The character might be horribly unbalanced, might not be fun to play, might be totally broken or have shit costumes and physics.

But the ONE thing that I will give Capcom credit for is that every character animates BEAUTIFULLY. So I don't expect that to change here.

 

[HardRojo]

Isn't Kolin the Japanese word for "freeze"? (kourin).

Freeze! Ice Storm me if wrong.

Japanese word for ice is "Kouri" so yeah, you might be onto something here.

(not new) screencap of rumored drop

How will the fans react to another blondie?

 

[Platy]

Leak ? The Facebook page posted an obvious Hellen silhouette covered in ice

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

Leak ? The Facebook page posted an obvious Hellen silhouette covered in ice

The leak happened and mentioned ice before they updated the picture

 

[lucebuce12]

Leak ? The Facebook page posted an obvious Hellen silhouette covered in ice

The leak revealed how she played, a zoning character with rekkas which we had no idea of. The silhouette on the fb page only gave away that she had ice powers.

Capcom are the best when it comes to characters animation.

The leak happened before Capcom posted the image.

 

[Megawarrior]

I'm ready to purchase that season pass!

 

[Storm Chamber]

I'm just here for the Lupe track

 

[oti]

It's that Frozen girl!

 

[Wallach]

This might be the least exciting character reveal ever. Everyone knew this one the second they put up the silhouettes, and nobody seems to really care or want Helen playable.

 

[J_Macgrady]

Imma die laughing if NGL is the track they drop lol. Probably City of the Year if I had to put money on it.

 

[TraBuch]

I thought Lupe retired for like the tenth time.

 

[Kashiwaba]

This might be the least exciting character reveal ever. Everyone knew this one the second they put up the silhouettes, and nobody seems to really care or want Helen playable.

You never know. Rashid was a new character and he turned out to be my favorite character in SFV, so new characters might actually be interesting, I'm glad capcom is not cashing on nostalgia and they are actually taking risk with new characters.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Looking forward to the Sub Zero crossover.

 

[Seijuro]

Hoping it's not Helen but that Eisbahn character that's mentioned in on or another SFV stage.

Eisbahn is german and means "Ice-train".

 

[Stone Ocean]

It certainly won't be as bad as the Gief reveal

 

[lucebuce12]

Hoping it's not Helen but that Eisbahn character that's mentioned in on or another SFV stage.

Eisbahn is german and means "Ice-train".

Yeah but it's Helen. And that Eisbahn character is actually from an existing IP(mobile game, I believe)

 

[kunonabi]

I want her playable and if she fits the rose archetype even better. That said I won't really be happy till we get sodom.

 

[Nakazato]

Killer frost Sub zero

 

[sixteen-bit]

Eisbahn is german and means "Ice-train".

Eisbahn is a character from a Capcom mobile game apparently.

 

[Ryce]

Hoping it's not Helen but that Eisbahn character that's mentioned in on or another SFV stage.

Eisbahn is german and means "Ice-train".

Eisbahn is an existing character from an obscure Capcom mobile game. The poster is a meaningless cameo, just like the Rival Schools girls in the beach stage.

 

[MattXIII]

Oh right, I forgot I bought the season 2 season pass.

Hope she drops at the end of Feb.

 

[Triscuitable]

Phantom Blood Dio

Can a monkey fight a man?

 

[Lulubop]

Oh right, I forgot I bought the season 2 season pass.

She does

 

[PfantzyPantz]

I'm pretty interested, hopefully she's cool

Spoiler

not pun

 

[Kade]

 

[rec0ded1]

Can tell already will be trash tier. Come at me

Hope it's Eisbahn and not Helen.

 

[aaaaaa]

People figured out Helen from the Season 2 silhouettes. No surprise this time.

 

[J-Tier]

Either Helen or Kolin huh? The latter would be cool because she's Urien's secretary so her lines would be fun.

However, they both should be cool. Ice powers and all.

 

[7Th]

Bad Kula. Meh,

 

[Neoxon]

Either Helen or Kolin huh? The latter would be cool because she's Urien's secretary so her lines would be fun.

However, they both should be cool. Ice powers and all.

They're the same person.

Also, Kolin/Helen is Gill's secretary, not Urien's.

 

[JayEH]

Same person and she's gil's secretary.

Beaten.

 

[Dead End Irony]

Wasn't Arturo the one that leaked the play style? Character isn't a surprise in the slightest though. Smart of them to get the obvious one out of the way early.

 

[Swarna]

No Saggot no care.

Thanks, didn't know that. Well, Helen it is then.

 

[Murdamonk]

Eisbahn!

Spoiler

Not really

I was about to say that too..

 

[BlizzKrut]

Seems like the leak was true, can't wait to see it.

 

[Nemesis121]

FM ready for Sub-Helen...

 

[galvenize]

Yes suis. My main from third strike is back.

 

[Hellshingu]

"Stubby slow normals"

Mid low tier confirmed.

 

[lucebuce12]

Yes suis. My main from third strike is back.

3rd Strike was SOOO GOOD. Still get the urge to play it.

 

[KingBroly]

.

She is going to be annoying as hell to fight against if that's true

 

[DR2K]

"Stubby normals"

Mid low tier confirmed.

Her Vtrigger sounds like bull shit and it's 2 bars so maybe she'll be decent

 

[Ferrio]

I'm going to be so disappointed if it's Helen and not Kolin. What a snub.

 

[Smo21]

Leak was real? I hope part where they say she plays like Rose is true. That's my SF4 main

 

[jbug617]

Here is the reddit leak

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

Ice Powers in fighting games are so cool. Street Fighter needed it for a while now.
