LMAO I meant to execute V-trigger and accidentally pressed wrong button to trigger V-skill, and the mic killed him

Any videos/tips on Vega's V-skill/trigger. Read the OP, but still not sure what it's all about.
V-skill Dodges projectiles, dodges moves with hitboxes above his belt (sucks for this). Hold to do the attack.

V-skill: Rose Needle can be done crouch for anti air or jumping forward too. Opponent needs to stand for standing version. All normals cancel into it. Can follow up standing rose with ex claw swipe qcb+pp if you corner yourself and super if you qcfx2.

Skill hits for decent damage (hold MP+MK for the hit, tap for the feint) and builds Trigger (LOADS on a clean hit, a little for using it after target combos). Trigger is easy to combo into from loads of stuff and the neutral one gives you a free super afterwards. Down version is a fair anti-air, air-to-air version is okay for punishing jumpaways.

Edit: beaten, but some slightly different info there. Didn't know the feint actually dodged stuff because I didn't get it to work and then assumed it didn't.

Great, thanks.

I've had it whiff sometimes (hitbox not great?). I wonder how fwd.HP does...

Overall the anti airs seem to be lacking right now. I'm seeing tons of trades and dead zones where shit just whiffs.

Capcom, can we please have buttons that aim in the air? Not the kinda ok horizontal buttons with high hit boxes, but full on "this button hits above my fucking head" type shit. Like Sim pretty much.

Like, Necalli's AA dead zone is right at the range of his pokes. Makes no sense to me to rely so much on auto correct dp.
 
I'm really enjoying Ken. The only character besides Cammy to really click with me thus far in SFV

Low tatsu into super is pretty stylish

Are those the only ways you can follow up after V-trigger? In other words, if you're not in the corner and don't have full meter you can't follow it up?

I guess it's designed to be a finisher anyway, but I would've thought there would be more options.

The only and only thing I hope Vega gets is to be able to follow up his rose with ex Barcelona

I'm getting a match every 3 minutes now.

Enough of the matches, my wrist is tired. Ughhhhh!!! Why can't you do anything right, Crapcom?

Necalli is really cool. I love his obsession with sacrifice-ice and the way he pronounces it.

Vega is also much cooler. Players can style with him like crazy. plays very differently without his godly pokes.

R. Mika is fabulous, I love her so much. her Mike taunt gives me orgasms, her "push you against the ropes" move is SOOOOO gratifying to look at.

Ken...is a completely different creature and less noob-friendly. I've played against CPU in max difficulty, and his pressure is second to none.
 
Is there a list of combos floating around anywhere? It's fun to experiment but given the fact that matches happen fairly frequently, I'd love to know a few bnb's to go off of.

So Necalli's command grab doesn't seem that great in practice. I keep getting beaten out by mashing and regular throws. Gonna need to re-evaluate how to approach dealing pressure.
