I dunno, I went online and had four matches in a row no problems then I just went into training mode after that.
Is this another case of, "I don't like thing, therefore thing sucks"?

These two look like they're in different games lol
I'm pretty sure this is so Kolin's CA freeze frames on her butt when she KOs.

I feel the complete opposite.
I'm not a huge fan of her design as a fighter (at least in her regular costume), but I like the way she plays.
no, more like 5 mins in training room and testing her out
the main problem being that her fucking sweep can connect on the first hit and miss on the second... really capcom?

It's the internet silly, of course.
Yeah, that's dope.
built in taunt is fun
Yeah, the artist for alot of the models are different, and you can tell in the base roster. Geif's face looks way better than a lot of characters. And odds are they don't want another ken's face issue so there has been improvements to how they handle the proces
I don't know why they refuse to tweak his character select pose.
Are you seriously mad that her sweep is somewhat unique/different from other character's? It's also cancelable on hit, which gives you more options.
I like it when her hair covers her face in her winscreen

I don't understand what her gameplan is? The ice cubes only seem to be good for some incredibly low damage oki setups. Her double jump is weird, her counters seem weird and don't really flow into anything yet. But she does seem to be really fun to play so far.
Also you get 2 ice stomps off of v trigger. Idk if you guys know that but nobody seems to be using it that I've played.

Ice cubes seem to have major blockstun. I have time to walk up sweep from just inside half screen and its a true blockstring from ice cube.
Not sure what you would be able to make tight there besides that with some more walking but they seem good for something.
Her double jump is near useless but her counters are ALL hard knockdowns. there must be something that can be done from them.
Apparently 1k HP and stun.
GGs, Producer. Those were some really interesting matches. You didn't use counters very much, but I was using them frequently earlier in our games, when they were working. Then you started empty jumping and varying your offense, which made me start to hesitate a lot. In exchange, though, that also made you back off sometimes on wake-up, or go for throws more than you normally would. I didn't exploit those openings enough, but I think striking fear with those counters like that is how it's gonna work.
Landing a counter is so satisfying. And getting countered makes you feel like an idiot. It's a cool dynamic.
She's a fun character. That walk speed really throws me off in the area of throws, though. Can't shimmy like I normally do, and I feel weird walking up so slowly to a blocking opponent to go for a throw.
That double jump to get out of the corner is pretty silly. It seems like a good way to do it, or at least force the opponent to back off of you in anticipation of it.

Looks like Kolin has some unique lighting going on that applies only to her. It's pronounced in that screenshot and in gameplay in some stages. Probably something they did to give her a unique glow presumably pertaining to her ice powers.
Or it's something they forgot to turn off. Regardless she clashes with the other characters because of it.
Edit: And Ken's model is still ugly as sin of course.
Counters are definitely the most fun part.
Countering balrog's dash punch feels really good. I countered a kolin in neutral and then she reversal ex countered my meaty and that was hype.

cLK, cLP xx back spin, LP ice ball dash forward to get cLK to link into sFP is the gimmick. it's crazy unsafe.
What kolin does when waiting for a match
The poses plus her Japanese voice have me sweating.
She has a lot of standing animations, it feels like. Almost every time I won a round with her tonight some animation or other got interrupted so she could do her victory pose.What kolin does when waiting for a match
GGs flux. Hah yeah i dont think im gonna use the counters very much, too afraid of the empty jump and guessing wrong. I really need the frame data so i know when to press stuff and when to hang back. One thing though was i was having trouble doing jump back os. Think i just gotta get used to the wakeup timing but alot of times it wasnt coming out and i was getting hit free. Shes alot of fun though.

well I figured the first part was just added on to the combo beforehand, because I can only ever see a turtle that literally cannot figure out how a stick works ever getting hit by that

There seems to be a new Android app named FDV that has her frame data. Seems like it's using tool assisted's data.
you mean ibuki
Her counters and ex specials seem to do pretty good damage.

Even with my current junked stick I had to get some play time in tonight, but I guess the servers had other plans. I think Capcom should stick to leaving Steam to handle the data side of things instead of insisting on downloading updates in-game. Kolin's fun though, but quirky.
Yeah, I was actually impressed with the art in Kolin's story mode. Gill's face is striking.

It doesn't really sound like an ideal English sentence, though I guess it technically works.

She's Russian though.
Well I did 4 trials, played the 1 stage story mode , spent 15 minutes in training mode and had 8 matches with a friend. I like Kolins playstyle but I don't love it.
Her basic special (QCF+P) reminds me of Decapre's (<--,->+P), even has very similar sound effects. The counter move and resulting throw is totally dead or alive, right down to guessing the height , of course the timing is WAY tighter than DOA but there it is, similar sense of satisfaction using it.
Her rekka-ish attack is kind of odd , it's closer to Karins palms/shoulders than it is to something like the classic fei long 1-2-3. Some decent variety in how you use it. The other command normals and target combos are alright. ->+HK seems like a pretty strong poke, it even worked as an anti-air but , you know it's also a heavy so I imagine it's unsafe as hell. The double jump is pretty satisfying , allow her some fantastic mobility too, of course her walking speed and generally stubby normals (outside of the heavy attacks) force you to get in a bit more often.
Vskill seems kind of average, it was funny to see my friend and I launch it at each other at the same time, the animation plays for both and nothing happens in the end. Vtrigger and freeze mechanic is pretty great - should lead to some pretty hype setups by the pros.
I'm really curious how she'll sit after people spend a month with her, I imagine a good number of people will play her for a day or 2 and get bored and obviously it's day 1 but I don't think she's some godlike upper tier character, certainly the counter attack helps with some of the higher damage characters in the top 5 but that's the same level of guess work required by maximizing a crush counter. Seems to be firmly in the middle of the pack as far as I'm concerned which probably means people will be teiring her near the bottom
From an aesthetics point - her model and animations are actually pretty well done , it's still SFV play-dough hair that moves like an octopus but it works. The tactical gear looks better in game then I expected too.

I mean, it's not incorrect English or anything. Just seemed weird at first and had people thinking it was a mistake.

Admit it. You actually thought she said "It's so nice to meet you", and you thought Capcom made a typo.
I am curious too. I was tons of mileage out of cMP > sMK xx sHP xx V-Skill.
