Do it! Speaking from experience, the best way to improve as a player is to attend locals and get advice from other players in-person. Oftentimes we develop bad habits imperceptible to us that hold us back, and having other people who can identify those habits for you is invaluable.
Yeah, he doesn't really need an invincible reversal. He's got EX Killing Head to discourage throw loops and a pretty decent "get off me" V-Reversal, so he doesn't crumble to pressure in the same way as most grapplers.
It's true! One of the dudes at my locals plays Birdie and he always cleans up because his spacing and neutral game are godlike. That character's incredibly strong in the right hands, and even moreso because so few have experience with the matchup.

Mid-tier to me. Good meaty options and solid oki, mediocre neutral. Also, all of his demon flip options can be easily reacted to. Pretty good counter-zoning with his red fireball, mediocre keep-away in general. This is probably the first Street Fighter game where his crappy health is not justified like it was before.
( mokoto should have gotten in before ibuki )Played some 3rd Strike recently and man... I miss Makoto
You are not wrong.

New characters always have terrible winrates. The only exceptions that stayed kinda bad to terrible are Juri and Alex.
Alex was like top 5 to them even after a couple of weeks of S2. It took a lot of hammering into them that the dude sucks ass. Slowly but surely all characters are falling into their proper places, but ehubs never leads the pack in terms of placement or prediction.
I agree, especially after messing around with him for the first time since Beta 3.
I've been seeing a flux in the number of Rashid players since s2 started.

SFV FB page, and I'm obviously joking.

Indicates the fact that the leak was right.
Oh shit.
Oh shit.
I hope so, she had a different background with an old stage before, but now it's updated, maybe the same will happen with future characters?

Kula Diamond in the building?
Oh yeah, that one.
That's descriptive enough that we'll know if it's true once the trailer lands but it was never a big leap that 1) that silhouette was Helen and 2) that the Russian woman in fur might have ice powers.
Now we need leaks on every other character.

I guess we'll know tomorrow, because that's when I figure they'll drop a trailer.

But for Bison it will be Tuesday
Yeah I'm betting on tomorrow too, everything is indicating to that, if not, then Thursday is the day.

It'd be cool if Kolin/Helen turns out to be a hybrid pressure/zoning character cuz if she clicks with me that kind of playstyle would cover a few gaps in my matchup chart.
I'm at least excited to see what alternate costumes she'll have; that's always one of my favourite parts about a new character reveal.

I'm expecting the classic Kolin look as her story costume and an ice-themed Russian ballet costume as her battle outfit.
Helen being a Capcom Jojo-style stand user would definitely elevate my hype for her (from a 1.4 out of 10 that its currently at).
Just give me another Capcom JoJo fighter.

Is this also one of those things where you bet to eat your own ass?
You're right! Damn, Capcom sure loves those golden locks.
Well I mean aren't all white people blond haired blue eyed supermen ? 💩

I don't see what's the problem, it's not like SFV is only played by Injustice 2 players.
So you need to eat ass? Lets go!
Ehh don't really think that matters too much.

They have to uphold their end of the deal with a roadmap! I think that was the other part of it.
Man I do too much for you guys.
She's definitely an ice character.
Nice. I've always wanted an ice based character to counter someone like Dhalsim who uses fire.
She has ice powers obvioualy the Kolin model is a distraction to petshop coming back to a capcom game
Reminder, Urien has a strait up Tony Montana color

Out of extreme random curiosity, does the place you are interviewing at start with a P?
