i wonder urien's reception will make season 2 characters more free-form in combos or urien will be "adjusted" to the whole sf5 motiff

I hope they continue in the same direction for future characters that they took with Urien. Really open and deep compared to how limited they made Ibuki/Balrog/Guile/Alex feel.
I feel like Urien was Capcom's way of saying "Yes, we can still make fun characters"

Now that SF has got a viable character I wanna see him go all the way.
Wat!?
Ibuki probably comes second to Urien in terms of "making shit up as I go along."
what about juri
CountBlack
Member
Urien at least got to retain all of his special moves. Ibuki lost too many things and now has a limit on how many kunai's she can throw. Her V-trigger is good tho
I never touched Juri lol, she seems less scary than her 4 version though because her overhead doesn't combo tbh
She never had ground Kunai though, and they're pretty fast and reloading one at a time isn't too bad if you're a decent distance. But otherwise, yeah.

Yea the ground Kunai's and the ex. Kunai's are both strong. Maybe she should start with more in stock idk, she's mad stale though.
Oh yeah, her V-Skill really looks like they ran out of ideas. "Yeah we have this V-System to give every character unique style and mechanics. Also we gave Ibuki this other one, but worse".

Yea it really varies but most of them just seem like a special move they decided to make a two button input instead of a QCF or whatever lol
Balrog is super fun, the most fun he's ever been. He has so many resets and mix ups. Too many people sleeping on him. Well I think too many people are sleeping on the dlc characters in general. Only one that seems like complete trash is Ibuki but that could be fixed by giving her a two bar v trigger I think.
If Chun is allowed to have a 2 bar v-trigger, everyone should be allowed to have a 2 bar v-trigger.

My stats do not pop up. What's the secret?
She needs a 4 bar v trigger tbh.

Have the V-Trigger be 6 bars and carry over between rounds.

She had them in Omega mode
That said, they'd be the best projectile in the game without being stocked.
What she needs is either a 2-bar v trigger or a better v skill alongside some minor buffs to her neutral game.
And for the love of god Capcom let characters do air specials during neutral jumps.

Don't good players whiff a lot of normals as a matter of course? Seems like an integral part of footsies, to protect your space against sudden ingress and to maybe punish poorly spaced whiffs by your opponent. Also fishing for a confirm. Isn't that the whole reason people buffer specials without executing them?
Percentage hit rate doesn't seem like it would mean much in a fighting game compared to a shooter.
At the main menu on the bottom right there should hit square for fighter profile. Then use the r1 and l1 to go through the tabs
That's kind of a pointless statistic. You're supposed to whiff normals in footsies battles. You're supposed to put your opponent into positions where they have to block. Hit rate doesn't seem all that important compared to win rate.
Chun's vtrig should deplete with button presses if it's going to be 2 bars.
Ibuki needs a lot. Quicker reload animation on Kunai. She should have at least one button that she can cancel into tele that is + on block. Give her actual mixups from her mk target combo. Tele should crossup midscreen.
I'd like to get back cancellable s.mk. Give her back her b+mk.
Changing her trigger to 2 bars would get rid of a lot of its utility since it's 3 bar triggers get to cancel from specials, 2 bar would not. Not sure that's worth the sacrifice.
I hate her dash. Feels useless right now.

If you swapped Ibuki's V-skill with a quick kunai reload that gave her a little v meter that'd help a lot of her issues.

Yea but that'd give her the incentive to run away and chuck kunai's all day then get V-Trigger GG

Even a blind man can see how much better Urien's reception has been compared to the other DLC characters. If there is a God Capcom rebalance S1 DLC characters to be more like Urien and avoid making boring DLC characters for season 2.
At least Rog's combos and resets look cool AF. Guile is kinda boring outside of his MvC boom corner combos and Alex would be less entertaining than watching paint dry if he didn't have his jab AA mixups.
We need second V-skills. Some characters just have super boring V-skills that won't become good or fun no matter how much you buff them (Karin, Alex and Ibuki come to mind). I don't think I've ever seen a Guile use his crouch walk V-skill... not that I've seen more than a couple dozen Guiles since he came out LOL.
I can see that with Balrog. The dude's combos, damage, forward pressure and resets look the sickest out of the entire DLC cast, but his lunging punches seem to be easy to blow up with sweeps, projectiles and the right standing normals.

crouch walk isn't guile's v-skill
ya I wish juri had her v-trigger last like that

They still are in the game, the jab just has to be a counter-hit in most cases. Granted, Cammy and Chun can still do it w/o counter hit.

God, that is how little I see this character. I actually like his stationary projectile V-Skill over what Karin, Alex and Ibuki have. It kinda serves as a small wall at close range and gives you free 2 hit projectiles that would normally require meter. It really compliments his playstyle in ways that other V-triggers don't for their respective characters.

But you don't have to charge it all in one go. I use the charged version plenty. Just charge a little bit at a time.
That...doesn't work?
I'm pretty sure it was like Mika's v-skill in that your charges don't accumulate.
I mean, if it does then I've been doing it wrong the whole time
It stays, but the next charge doesn't add to it I thought.
Gonna try this later then, cool.

Activating down-up charges from standing is hard for me. My Alex game would improve vastly if I could do headbutt from stMP, but it ain't gonna happen.
Doing Vega trials in SFxT had tons of those. Fuck those things.
