Alpha counter into Dark Harmonizer seems risky, since you'd probably die unless you canceled into Shadow Servant, which is also risky. Shadow Blade is fully invincible though, and an amazing alpha counter since it leads into full combos. None of my characters have good alpha counter options...
I still that SoCal has stronger players overall. And they're faster at adapting to things, and less homogenous in the characters they choose. That equals strength to me.
I'm so mad they nerfed Felicia's counter. It's still invincible but they flip out way too fast to be able to do a follow up combo now. Doesn't make that big a difference for me since I usually play her on point now but it's still stupid.
It's not that SoCal doesn't have talent; that's certainly not the case. The phrasing I used was "falling behind" and "not taking the game seriously," which I certainly think is the case when compared to other regions. These days I'm much less impressed by TRB than the other big weekly streams, and I used to consider it to be the best.
All bases covered, he EVEN included Storm and Joe teams for the counter pick.
Oh shit. Welcome Clockw0rk!
From previous research on Mr. Maniago's work, it appears he doesn't care much for it, and it is a serious flaw in his gameplay that needs to be corrected.
Enzo's post totally reminded me that one of the major reasons why I love my team is because of how they mesh color wise:

So simple yet so nice. In other news, I realize now that I really don't do enough with Amaterasu's slow hyper. I think it's because usually, Dark Vergil is in play by that point and his DT + XF3 speed boosts put him waaay over the top, but I really should have gotten into messing with it sooner.
It's also pretty much a means to a GG if I get it started and DHC or tag in Dante. The things he can do with a universal slow off a hard knockdown are fucking insane.
