Air Fighter 3: Bird Strike

Yeah, I main swan too, but I don’t get to play it in Japanese gardens like you do.

Jerk ass.

This just in:

The Japs are at it again.

The newest character unlocked appears to be TOTALLY BROKEN.

Double-wattled Cassowary apparantly has one button infinites and unblockable set ups with his head uppercut.r

Penguin is bottom tier. No Air Fighter for him. He can’t take to the air. Plus he lacks speed and is only a nuisance when under water.

Low speed, can’t fly, weak mixup game, low damage. He’s the 3S Sean of birds.

His Peck>Belly slide tackle is a 1F link. On the plus side Peck can function as a shitty range AA. And Belly Slide puts him at a low profile allowing him to effectively evade Talon jump ins.

lol@ at the noobs still playing 1.0

dodo hasn’t been in the game since 1.1a was released, and even in 1.0b dodo got raped by hover and sky dive.

btw, for those that don’t know, dodo is “raphus cucullatus” in japan, but they changed the name in the US port

Double-wattled Cassowary one button infinite isn’t even practical, it only works against small birds that are grounded, and its like cr. peck peck sjc peck addf peck peck… but what kinda hummingbird is gonna be grounded and not block?

Woodpeckers are all about getting in and staying in. Once you get your opponent in the corner, they’re done. You usually come in with a j. peck cross up, cr. peck, overhead, and then mash peck until yor fingers hurt.

What a tasteless fucking topic. :confused:

Kotaku just reported that they’re bringing back dinosaurs for the next update.

Way to Capcom, anything for money right?

:\

I dunno dude, I’m a bit excited about Pterodactyl.

But Belly Slide has horrible recovery… Totally unsafe on low block or evade. :shake:
btw, speaking of penguin… Anyone else get this weird glitch?

The Cassowary? Really? He’s a final boss character and more overpowered than anything SNK has ever made. He can’t be legal in tournaments!

tizoc too

Sorry man, it’s 2009, not 10,000 BC.

I’ve left the past behind.

:stuck_out_tongue:

Also: Ken the Eagle and Jun the Swan.

Kotaku is just saying that because they read a badly translated letter from the mail section of Famitsu. It was really just some 40 year old japanese guy writing about how a crossover with primal rage would be ‘totally awesome’ . Typical Kotaku!

Don’t forget Hwoarang, The Blood Talon.
Master of the Hunting Hawk

Actually, Beak does it, too.

Y’know…Beak Doo San?

Nobody’s reppin’ dat E.Mu?

Bitches don’t know how fast he can get; charge partition neck drop all day.

Thank god.

Have some dignity Capcom (yeah right).

After experimenting with Penguin, I noticed some things that could possibly make him mid tier.

His slide actually hits OTG, and can be directly comboed into his super (Crosby Slap Shot). His other super (Lemuiex Slash), is stupidly fast, and hits low.

His ground game has serious potential… His air game is going to keep him from being tourney viable, though.

Apparantly they are going to be patching Double-wattled Cassowary’s unblockbale head upper but they are giving him a fireball type move. Kinda dumb.

Yeah his one button infinite is totally non practical but apparantly there is rumors of a totally bogus 50/50 rush down he can do.

Yeah he’s quick, not bad at all. I just wish they would update the [media=youtube]AZLx4Os8TBs"[/media].

Yeah. Because of his lack of an air game Peg’s ground game is strong. He has the fastest peck in the game. 3F startup. Cancels into itself. Frame advantage on block.
