Cross Posting from old OT:
How much better are Guile's booms than Nash's? And in what ways?

We're gonna need frame data on Guile's booms to really know.
Well just from the looks of it they definitely come out faster. Like a normal fireball as opposed to Nash's noticeable startup

Guile's booms always where the fastest projectile when it came to startup and recovery, he just lost to ryu because of charging.

At least we got trailers and streams beforehand this time. Last time it was just data mined info, modded game files, and fan made trailers. Good to see capcom make the necessary changes to reveal their DLC.
Well... until Poison happened in USF4.

They weren't faster, guile's booms still had the startup advantage, and only one of poison's projectiles had better recovery.

Amazing OT Garrett!
Or higher ranked players winning 2-1 and coming out having lost points.
Zenny shop is coming in May if I have to bet
It's one of those things they can't really afford to fuck up because if there's an exploit then they lose money so I kinda get why they're taking their time with it.
The longer it takes, the more having free access to Alex/Guile will make it seem like Capcom is 'taking away' something when they put them behind the paywall (despite them being cool about letting us access them for free for a while)
Nah, I'm fine with that. That's pretty much every single match for me now, and I think higher ranked players need to deal with that risk if they want to maintain their rank. It's when it's literally a situation where a player will win 1 LP or risk losing something like 300-350 LP in a single match where things get pretty stupid.
Poison's EX fireball is the exact same speed as Guile's EX boom, has better start-up and pretty much the same recovery. It's the best fireball in the game. That's what I was talking about.
Great work as usual Garrett. Kick ass and chose the best title.
Safer, faster, more control.
Guile has always based his entire gameplay around his booms, where as with Nash it's just another nice tool to have. Almost like Ken's Hadouken's compared to Ryu but even more so.
Which is a bit ironic because Nash is supposed to be the master of them, hence the one hand.

I don't know, the swings seem to violent considering there aren't that many people at the higher LPs to constantly have matches like that. Its not as if people in Gold are terrible and won't be able to take a match off of someone in Platinum, that means they'll gain ~150 and lose maybe 20 total.
Considering how many matches 130 LP could be for someone in Plat that seems crazy.

Nobody is throwing out a constant stream of ex fireballs, guile however can throw out booms relatively safely because they startup/recover so fast. Even with her ex fireball, poison would lose if guile didn't have to charge.
That's what's been happening to me consistently, and it is pretty disheartening, but I guess I see it like this: someone who reaches that league should be able to win that many matches to offset the few losses that'll set them back if they want to remain in it. I don't think people's LPs should be ever-growing; I appreciate the risk of losing a great deal. It puts more importance in matches, and more importance in performing well, as well as actually giving some importance to the skill levels reflected proportional to a player's league.
That said, though, I agree that it doesn't seem right that the higher leagues always have to be matches against fairly lower ones because there aren't enough players in the higher one to be matched against.

Looks like Nash stopped levelling his human skill (sonic boom), and levelled up his undead skill instead (teleport).
