Just confirmed it, the EX elbow beats the second MP.
I set the dummy to record two MPs which combo. He armored right through the second one after blocking the first.
He can also parry the second MP if he is in V-trigger.

The EX elbow has armor on the 3rd frame till the 22nd so it'll get beat by a properly timed meaty but in most other situations, it'll still work.

I guess some of the special CPU fights, whenever they are patched in, will be against some of those Shadaloo soldiers among other things. It could be fun, depending on how it's implemented.

Found some setups of CC Sweeps for you Chun-Li folks:
CC Sweep, St.MP x2 St.LP, F.HK (Is +5 on hit if done correctly, and +7 on counterhit. Links to St.MP, EX Legs, and Super on regular hit. Links to B.HP and sweep on counterhit.)
CC Sweep, St,LP, dash, F.HK, St.MP (Crossover meaty that beats 3F jabs.)

Wow lol
Can you make a video to demonstrate ?
I'm not picturing the setup. You get a CC Sweep and use st.MP x 2 and st.LP while the opponent is down to get a meaty F.HK ?
Great vid. Didn't even know the throw follow-up only catches standing opponents, haha. People really have to learn how to punish this girl's stuff.

Well true, but they're more like Bison's "elite unit" in a way. The actual soldiers are just kinda generic judging by these posts on Capcom's site.
Dolls are pretty cool though and kinda creepy.
EDIT: I recently saw that intro video (which they didn't put in the full game for some reason) and I gotta say, I got hyped for the story mode. Really hope it's something fun.

The intro is there but I think it only plays the first time you ever boot up the game.
After a few weeks off, got my new home set up and spent a little over an hour playing sf5 ranked this morning. Gained a little over 800lp, matchmaking was quick and had zero rage quitted to finally make gold rank. My own personal goal. Feels good after not being able to Crack even 2k bp/pp in SF4.
Think that's high enough for me. Time to grind battle lounges and get ready for EVO.

I think one of the biggest strengths to have in this game is the ability to hit confirm your hits. It really helps you out so much in everything.

You going to get ready with Ibuki when she's out?

Did he RQ? I'm guessing he RQ. I wouldn't have blamed him.
Why would the low ranked player RQ? He literally has nothing to lose.
He doesn't want to get completely bodied?

The intro video that's in the game is just a condensed "teaser" version of the full intro. It's the exact same thing that was shown at Capcom Cup, I believe.
That is what happens at low ranks, you get bodied. If your pride is that sensitive that you don't want to get destroyed by the guy who has played these games far more than you then why are you even trying to learn?
Yep. Planning on Cammy and Guile for EVO, but if ibuki is legal, then she'd replace Cammy.
I am a super gold and, as a personal rule, I always give the opponent the chance for a second match. At least, when playing bronze/silver opponents, they are always eager for the rematch.
I want to believe they are learning something from the matches

Just ended WannaSeeMyKungFu 117 Win Streak. Apparently that player is a rage quitter after seeing the 90%+ win rate and a video of the player rage quitting.
Playing against Alex as Nash is frustrating. It doesn't help that his Flash Chop and Slash Elbow is safe when properly spaced and can press any button afterwards. Plus that fucking stupid Anti Air Jab. What's the point of using a Dragon Punch or a EX SBK if Jab/Short is a much safer to do and allow for mix ups?

Judging by that poll on Mr. Wizard's Twitter I think she will most likely make it in.

DP will always win out while some jump ins can definitely beat every character's jab. e.g Bison's j.hp

5 points for winning? do you play another?

Not against Chun-Li,Alex, Ryu, Zangief,Necalli and Dhalsim. Unless they press it late their Jab/short will always beat jump ins and ambigous cross ups

The counter-argument is that the low ranked player is, in fact, learning nothing from a complete and total dismantling. I don't necessarily buy this argument but I can see the experience disheartening new players to the point of giving up.
Then stop jumping.
If the player doesn't understand why they're getting completely dismantled then they're only going to repeat those mistakes, I've played plenty a Ryu who likes jumping in and DP'ing all the time and I will squash them with the same punishes until they stop doing it.

It's a great feeling. It's not even about points in causal, it's emotional. You just possibly made someone on the other side of the world throw himself off a building.

Probably the dumbest advice to give when in a corner and fighting grapplers.
Not any dumber than jumping against characters with an anti air jab that leads into a mixup. You play Nash, right? Your job as a Nash player is to stay out of that corner. Once in the corner, just blocking and holding your ground is often good enough since you have both v-reversal and v trigger to escape the corner, coupled with several good normals that allow you to keep your opponent away from cmd grab range. You only need to jump when you're forced into situations where you have to guess between blocking or jumping.

Like I said, I don't really buy the argument. I have gotten whipped by GAF heads plenty of times and always feel I've improved in some way as a result.
Sure, I'll invite if it's not too late.
EDIT: looks like you sent one. Joining now.
EDIT2: Sorry man, gonna have to quit. That connection was really bad on my end.
Was the connection shitty for you? Was fine on my end : (
Edit: aww, alright. You have SFV on PS4 no? We could try that...
