[QUOTE="God's Beard!";182415329]I wish you could do fancy cancels with his stance switch but I guess that's not what SFV is going for.

Also, Vega's V-trigger has juggle limits just in case someone figures out an infinite v-trigger glitch lol[/QUOTE]

There are some links. From claw on hp, stance, you can get a C. Mp.

I found a couple that would link into light punch into roll, but I forget what they were. I streamed a bit here:

Messed around with vega in the latter half.

He can also link mp from his s. Hk in either stance.
 
Well Vega is terrible. Normals are the worst they have ever been. V-skill sucks. Claw stance has weak combos but all the decent normals and his only reliable antiair. Throw range sucks. Wall dive is useless outside of ex again. Oh and no reversal again.

Got all that from 10 seconds of play, did you?

Keep up your joke character status. Always good for a chuckle.

Like you would know better? You just said he was like ST which means you have no idea what you are talking about.

On ps4 are you guys getting not enough free space error or is it just me?


Edit: something to do with the Gta v update running. Reboot fixed it.

What are the differing uses for mika's two command grabs.

Giant Swing is more damage and puts your opponent away from you. Her kick one does less damage but leaves them next to you so that you can continue pressure. I don't know about throw ranges but uses depend on what you need and want to do in the match.

A Giant swing then using her V-Skill to up her next throw's damage would be a use for it in addition to the damage, etc.

Irish Whip is definitely a big tool. Let's you V-Trigger, lets you combo, etc. She also has a move that forces her to drop like a rock so you don't need to jump into AAs all the time and can avoid fireballs, lol.

Yo turns out you don't need PS+! I'm playing right now without it.

I thought you didn't care about SF5? What happened to that? lol
Im in the beta & Vega was my main in ST, Super, and CVS2 so I wanted to see how he played & he plays like crap. Nash was more fun.

He has a point though, Vega is kinda terrible and severely lacking tools compared to every single other character in the game.

Haha you got me there.

And by that I mean, what the fuck ?

I have been playing with other people all night so I don't know what you're smoking....

Oh, my bad.

I love how you can tell this after a few hours of play when YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TOOLS ALL OF THE CHARACTERS HAVE, OR EVEN WHO ALL OF THE CHARACTERS ARE.

My mistake. I'll be sure to call out your stupid comments correctly in the future.

I'm sure your experience with Mika v. Vega and Vega. vs. Vega and Vega v. Mika are invaluable in coming to your conclusion.

Er because I play other fighting games ? Because I played previous street fighter ?

Because I have played and seen dozens of hours of this game and I have a good idea what other characters can or can not do ?

The final game isn't released, so it's not like anything is set in stone.

But if you can't make an educated guess after playing it for hours, then the "stupid" person, is you.

Then I bow to your clairvoyance, because I don't think anybody knows how to play Street Fighter 5 yet.

I'm glad you can tell how your 1 hour Vega will fair against a Rashid we don't know how to play yet, or any of the other characters that have seen tweeks, or how he'll stack up against vskills and triggers nobody knows how to use yet.

You're right, man. Your 1 hour of play and watching people learn how to play the game is surely enough to dictate how shitty or good a character is.

The range on ex giant swing is absolutely hilarious. stand jab stand short ex swing on block has worked I think a 100 percent of the time for me. I think I'm sort of liking mika. Oh my god what is happening?
 
Nooo don't want to hear this lol
It's ok, I got back in and it started downloading an update file. For what, I have no idea. He really is weird though. Nothing is familiar. You even have to literally grab the opponent from Barcelona (as in, press LP + LK during the jump). You have to press FP twice to her both hits from his normally double hit FP in SFIV. Cosmic Heel isn't in here from what I can tell. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be doing with his Slice! move(qcb + P). Shit is another dimension.

Edit: Necalli showed up as someone I could train against, but with I selected him, he turned into Mika :/
 
"But if you can't make an educated guess after playing it for hours"


People played hours of MVC3 pre-release and thought Wolverine and Magneto looked like ass. Post release people spent months playing MVC3 and thought Sentinel was overpowered.

People still think Vanilla SF4 Sagat was overpowered, when he's not even top 3 in that game, but we all moved on to Super before people realized it.

No, I'm sorry, your couple of hours of playing Vega against less than half of the cast don't qualify as an educated guess. He could very well be ass, we'll see in 2017.

Do you know if it stacks? If I hold it to level 1 or whatever multiple times, will it eventually get to full power?

I tried that and it didn't work. Also, whiffing a grab counts for the promo boost so it'll reset after.

Irish whip is making me like Mika a lot, it's super fun to pull a bunch of bullshit off of it.
