If they make it an EX move maybe you can pop them as often as in 3S

If they make his V bar 2 stocks that builds as fast as nash or rashid it will be good.

He's popped up in SFIV, in Balrog's ending.
They could have just not used him, but he's popped up again in SFV. He clearly has a purpose now since he's still around. And just like with Decapre showing up in the actual story mode, I know they'll show him off more there.
I dunno, that's just my reasoning. We'll see in the future.
As long as he has Aegis Reflector and Chariot juggles.
I'm honestly excited for him, it just sucks that the wait will be long.
They could make it like cammy's where you get two of them per V trigger.
Messing around with Nash doing survival and there's just something about slow characters (slow movement, I mean) that I can't deal with. I need to dash more but I end up moving a bit before remembering that Nash is super slow.
Man that drives me nuts. I'm not good enough at the game to know whether or not its good but I'm not a fan of Cammy's VTrigger (it looks awesome though) and I super overuse her VSkill while knowing I shouldn't.

Haha, Alex's win quote to Birdie:
"You're not a heel. Just a glorified jobber"

Here's an online Alex compilation from a pretty good player. Shows some use in real matches instead of training mode dummy play. Should help give some people some ideas if they are struggling.

This would make me happy. Only one character I would give absolutely no shits about. RE: Necro, I've said it since we first saw demo footage of SFV, this game feels like a good fit for him. I think Sean is safer for S2 and maybe Necro or Viper for S3? Though the truth is I'd prefer they slide Akuma to S3 as the headliner.
I really hope Capcom gives the game the help it needs in the form of actually providing a full/functional/sensible product with some decent PR. The last thing I want to see them do is try to boost sales by switching the DLC character plans to fit their already shoddy market data. If this game turns into another SSF2 circle jerk I'm out.

Okay, good to hear I'm not the only one. Getting used to the rythm of his movement speed has put me off from using him at all outside of finishing his Trials. Just totally messes up my sense of timing. On the flip side, characters like Cammy seem too airy and light. They lack weight in my hands so its an opposite adjustment. Well, it's probably all in my head anyway since I do use Vega.

Beat Survival with Nash's story costume, then this happened. I almost lost my mind when I thought they wouldn't give my colors. Quit toying with mah emotions, Capcom!

Died on Survival 37 vs Cammy who was neutral jumping every time I tried to headbutt. AI cheats.

Your mistake was not doing nothing but jump in combos. Don't play a ground game against the CPU.
It has pretty good utility. It may not be the flashiest but it definitely has its uses.

Wouldn't have mattered most likely. If Cammy had her berserk mode input reading instant reaction switch flipped, she'd just start instant reaction cannon spikes.
Yeah, playing Nash just feels super weird to me. His slow movement just doesn't work with how I play. Cammy is someone who I've played a ton and her movement feels perfect, its part of the reason I like Mika because she feels similar. Slow characters just feel really strange to me.
Yeah, I absolutely agree on that. It just feels like a bummer that you lose half of it if you try to dive kick with Cannon Strike. Idk, like I said I'm in no position to argue balance but it just feels like a weak VTrigger to me. I wish it was better because that VTrigger Spiral Arrow in to Cannon Spike looks so good but because of how much meter that causes a lot of people will opt out of the CSpike in hopes of getting more use out of it.
I made a Laura vid about pressuring the opponent's backroll. I'm really pleased with how it turned out.

Up til now, the AI had just been getting hit by chain headbutts. Cammers all of sudden started knocking me out of the air.

Heres my video versus half the cast of characters, part 2 coming. Gonna use this as a basis to learn each match-up and what I should potentially be doing against each opponent as a Ken player. Feel free to critique, shout-out to Flux for always giving me the toughest matches!

What do you do vs Vega's jump then grab? The one where he flings himself at you from above? Just dash under?

Retsu looks awesome with just that added beard. I'm still wanting him to appear one day.
I also love that Goutetsu design.
Lee portrayed as a drunken character is cool as well.

It doesn't work. I've done it a million times. I'm gonna buy the Season Pass... AGAIN.
Dash or whatever anti-air you have. You play Mika, right? Her c.MP might be rough to time, if it is just dash. You basically need to treat it like a jump in.
Don't give them another $30 while its broken. Contact Sony, even if it takes a few days. See if they can sort it out first.
That sounds like a terrible idea.

DONT do that lol, just call Skny or use their web chat
Yeah. I'll give that a try, thanks
I was just jump in hK crouch hP dash back repeat but it doesn't seem to work so good anymore :/

Great vid!
If Vega barcelonas over you without it being an ex you can just jump into him and jab him out of it with your character's specific anti.air air button. In the case of Ryu, its MP.
If you did a slow wake up and he's barceloning then try an invincible uppercut, otherwise he will grab you most of the times.
Characters with screen wide dashes like rashid, Laura and ken can dash out of it since he has to commit to an arc. Bison and Vegas own Sweep also take them far enough for this.
If its a naked ex Barcelona, its way harder cause even with anti airs, the grab range is big enough that he can usually grab you. Backwards jump into buttons may work if he didnt commit the full arc, but again, it's harder.
If you fast wake up though, he can always counter a non-ex Barcelona, and even get a good punish depending on characters.

Cammy's 10th trial is giving me fits.
I have no idea how I cracked Karin's 6th so easily, and yet Cammy and Alex are proving impossible for me.

Cammy's is rough but the hardest part is obviously the Cannon Strike after the VTrigger, best advice I can give is as you're using VTrigger, just hold Up+Forward and hit kick asap.
I really can't wait until Akuma gets added to the game.
Because, if there's one gigantic flaw the game currently has, it's those weirdos I fight against now and then who don't play Ken or Ryu. Once he's added, my online competitor will finally be nothing but shotos!
Jump back and hit him out of the air.
I think you just need to accept that you're not very good with these characters.

oh-hohoho. It's too late. I'm making declarative, hyperbolic statements & I think I like it!
Here's the thing - I don't think neither Necalli or Alex are too far off from some of the other cast members. In fact, my opinion of Necalli has gotten much better in the last 2 weeks. Partially cause i've gotten better, also cause his jab is so ludicrous. And i've gotten more mileage out of his dive kick (although not as much as i'd hope).
Alex is different though. So much of his kit can be found in Birdie, without any of the drawbacks Alex has.I did read the post I was guided to, and some of those tools do sound promising. I'll keep working on it.

I've actually gotten quite good with Necalli. Like I said, he's pretty decent now. I've grown to understand certain things in his kit that really helped me up my game.

I know this was posted before but it is so funny and true based on some post in this thread.

I'm no high level player but Alex seems pretty good to me.
So don't you think you should stop dismissing characters so quickly and writing big walls of text about how they're the worst?

Having one of those days...
You'd think since the rematch feature got implemented, stuff like this would stop.
