Rolento is bottom 5 free. Anyone who has played him knows the struggle. He's like a worst parts of Vega & Yang combined & I didn't think that was possible. He's like opposite of Blade, all of their weaknesses, none of their strengths.

Nah he ain't that bad.

What's so wrong with him?

 

[Passive Assassin]

anyone on the west coast want to play on psn?

 

[Deckard Cain]

[xCobalt]

Yeah it's bummer, but I notice most Rolento's aren't taking advantage of his backflip on wakeup. It is invincible and doesn't require meter, so at least it's something

His backflip is a pretty bad escape option. All the invincibility occurs when he is hopping upwards. If the opponent is just throwing moves out, he'll either a) get hit because the move is still active and he is still right beside them or b) get hit as he's doing the backflip because there's so little horizontal movement.

And it's only SLIGHT lower body invincibility & very option selectable.

Ehh... He seems alright. But it's week 1, so who the hell knows.

It's definitely not anything good, but it's helpful if you don't get predictable and you aren't in the corner. You will probably get hit during it, but at least you're in the air instead of on the ground.

Rolento is so dead in the corner.

 

[Marz]

Elena and Dudley's theme are by far my 2 favourite in the game. Mak comes in third.



lol at this

Zangief theme is sooooo good.

Went from 200 BP to 1015. Feels good man.

 

[Marz]

Who's this Chun Li? Your strategy of going to the other corner and focusing fireballs til u get ultra and not doing anything else is some 2008 XBL stuff

 

[xCobalt]

It's full invincibility from what I tested. Why do you say its only slight lower body?

It's tough but I find him fun to play still. A bit early to make balance suggestions but some stuff I would like to see in the future are: far fierce to become a command normal and EX Roll to be strike invincible. Close fierce is such an amazing anti air and it feels terrible when you misjudge the spacing and far fierce comes out instead.

Revert him back to arcade minus EX Roll being safe and giving Ultra. It's simple. He was never even THAT good in arcade.

 

[Tizoc]

Did they change Gouken and Gouki's theme in Ultra?

Lol just went on a 4 game win streak in the lobby, let's see how you do.

ft10 utah wakeup vs toronto lameness

 

[Rice-Eater]

Just got home, sounds like I missed all the fun. Hopefully I can join in next time and be apart of the red bar madness

Yah true, if there was a Hawk or Gief I could have been bodied.. I wonder if we'll see a Yun army at evo or not. I still think his lack of vanilla AE dive kick in USF4 will prevent a repeat of the vanilla AE train but we'll see...

He's missing a lot of stuff that made him so good in AE. He's still very good, definitely top 5. But no way is he the same kind of threat he was in AE. He's good but very beatable with some bad match ups and plenty of even ones. I think the Yun army will make a small comeback, but it won't be free wins

Lol GAF needs fire under its belly to spur grinding out.

The only thing from the Arcade version I want would be -2 on light patriot circle and the old EX Air Raid back. A change I did like in the Console version is the better start up on cr.mk. That 5 frame startup really improves his combo potential.

Wakeup tigereverything.

Edit: Onemic said fuck this I need a divekick lol

 

[Onemic]

Wakeup tigereverything.

Edit: Onemic said fuck this I need a divekick lol

Why the fuck did I pick the honest divekicker

Its clear this is the context for most cheap. Its time to Yun.

EDIT: ah yes the classic yun v Sagat. So free.

 

[The Mango Sentinel]

I'm getting destroyed by a Deejay player. Clearly he needs to be nerfed.

This character is so annoying, and I hate his big fucking stupid smile.

WHY ARE YOU SO HAPPY?! YOU SUCK BRO!

And when he back dashes "heeeeeey." He's enjoying himself too much in a fight.

I did enjoy watching AE Yun get bodied by Vanilla Sagat in that iplaywinner edition select tourney lol..

As did I. No matter how hard Yun fought Sagat always found his uppercut into Ultra.

 

[SlimXx]

Probably also a few 3S players who can finally rejoice now that that they're not limited to using him in SFxT.

Precisely. I can finally rejoice . . . in two months when it comes out on PC. ;_; But I'm already in the mental lab.

 

[Marz]

Back when the King was DA KING.

None of this nerfed damage nonsense

 

[Professor Beef]

Unless I was playing

Unless we both somehow got recruited on the same team. :O

 

[The Mango Sentinel]

I like how delayed wakeup does nothing to Vega's flying Barcelona. In fact if you DWU, you're more likely to get grabbed.

[El Sloth]

You'd think I'd stop throwing fireballs after the first four games I lost largely due to U1, but nope.

RIP my brain.

Iplaywinner twitch archives, think it was saturday night.

The edition select portion is towards the end, they only streamed like 5 matches I think..

 

[vulva]

lol playing ironfist over here. uppercutting absolutely nothing and everything

 

[Rocky_Balboa]

Damn, the beast is back in the game?

If you beast as a troll, then maybe . I will get the PC version when it is out.

Thanks, watching it now.

God this character is annoying

 

[mbpm1]

Vanilla Sagoddamn. He made AE Yun look like 2012 Yang.

 

[Passive Assassin]

i cried whenever i saw vanilla sagod come back :[

 

[vulva]

God this character is annoying

2008 XBL Chun too strong?

 

[Professor Beef]

Sounds like a Sagat is getting exposed. Those are always the most fun Sagats to fight.

 

[Marz]

2008 XBL Chun too strong?

Yea I guess so
