Seems more like a parry to me. It recovers way faster than a focus, and it doesn't involve canceling or anything, just the two buttons

parries don't soak up recoverable damage

 

[Holy Order Sol]

I am not sure.
People love churning butter so i doubt they would remove it due to difficulty.
If anyone has the chance to keep the 360s it's him. Alot of the charge characters became motion but Bison still fully charged even though charges are harder to people for some reason cos they want to be advancing.

Isn't Psycho Inferno qcb now?

It's a mix between both mechanics

 

[CountBlack]

Can't wait until the last character is announced and the V in the SFV logo turns upside down and it's actually alpha 4 :WOW:

 

[Azure J]

It's like Smash roster thread all over again.

Zangief = Lucina/Robin reveal?

Can't wait until the last character is announced and the V in the SFV logo turns upside town and it's actually alpha 4 :WOW:

And then everyone gets custom combos

 

[Warxard]

I'm gonna settle in here because the SFV roster thread kind of frightens me.

Hi! I like Power Instinct and SF.

 

[Horseress]

You've been so right about SFV so far that I won't even doubt everyone does get custom combos

"Ya'll wanted longer combos? YOU GOT LONGER COMBOS!"

 

[notworksafe]

haha nah i wouldn't want that again. alpha 3 and cvs2 are fun but i'd rather keep v-ism there

i am curious about people's reactions when alex/urien aren't the first dlc characters though

 

[Busaiku]

The latest Death Battle made it seem a lot closer than it actually would be.
Mr. Satan would wreck almost anyone from Street Fighter.

Not as many as you would think, but he would wreck a good chunk of the cast since Hercule is considerably stronger than the average person.

The bigger surprise would be in Gouki isn't the first DLC character.

Says charged when i looked at the movelist. Don't know if it got updated.
Supers still motion.

I think there are better choices but it's too early to tell for sure

Fair enough. It does seem pretty active. I guess I just don't know where to start. I've been a fan of fighting games for a very long time, but I want to delve into the discussions and tournament videos.

 

[SamVimes]

In a way i love the cognitive dissonance of 3rd strike fanboys that keep saying how dumping the old roster for a whole new cast was genius but cry because their favs aren't in in the new game.

What's your stance on anime tho?

 

[Coda]

I've been calling SF V, Street Fighter Cinco after watching the Excellent Adventures episode with LI Joe. It just sounds so exotic that way.

Just out of curiosity, how's the FGC in Houston? I've been needing to train more, but I can't find many people in my community who play USF4, Mahvel, Melee & Smash 4.

Liking that Gief footage. LOVING the Gief salt in the roster thread.

I'm honestly more disappointed than salty. Though I am happy for those who wanted Zangief in the game.

Crossing fingers for Gief to be the toppest tier and the online salt flows.

 

[mbpm1]

I'm eh about this reveal. Gief doesn't look too interesting.

As long as Blanka isn't in the game I'm happy.

 

[Mizerman]

I won't lie...Blanka would be the closest point for my sodium level to rise (though it would return to mild disappointment).

must be hard to find people who play street fighter, marvel versus capcom and smash bros, my heart goes out to you

is Houston near Arcade UFO?

 

[CommandThrower]

I'm kind of indifferent to Gief being in the game right now. I'd rather have Alex, but I'm not going to pitch a fit over Gief being in.

I just need to see actual matches. I've seen enough of Birdie and Mika to know that I want to play them in SFV. Gief, I need more details.

 

[mbpm1]

Yeah I can't muster much interest yet when I don't know the properties of his SPD just yet.

Curious what his V-stuff will do.
He seemed all over the place and i think i saw an air command throw too. That's real exciting!

 

[Horseress]

He headbutts a projectile!

 

[mbpm1]

It looks like he has running bear grab back too.


Hopefully it's worth something this time lol

if arcade ufo's is fubar's then it should be in Austin which is like a hella long ass drive. Like 4+ hours

Quick observation regarding the Gief trailer:

I'm probably not the only one to notice this, but it looks like Gief's anti air elbow(at 0:16) seems to cause a crush counter.

Does anybody else's anti air normals cause a crush counter? Was that a thing in the SFV beta, or is this a recent addition? The thought of Birdie's crouching fierce causing a crush counter is makes me excited. Crouching fierce crush counter into either bull horn or anti air hanging chain. Yeeess...
