Alex General Discussion: "At ease, loo-suh!" The Alex SFV Thread

Was his dive
…body? Ever decent?

It was decent for doing cool stun combos. Terrible move in a game with parries though

Not really. I mean, if you had a good read on the air-to-air situation you were currently in, you could set up some nasty combos with it, but if it’s telegraphed Alex is asking to eat a fatty combo, so it’s not entirely worth it.

if i remember right

isn’t their something special story wise about Alex…

like isn’t he considered the messiah of the street fighter universe or something

Pretty much, Gill turns him into an emissary at the end of his story mode.

Just got back from san fran for an alex play test.
His v skill is powerbomb. He does HUGE stun but less damage than you would expect.
Back fierce (aka headbutt) now pulls a blocked opponent closer to alex.
Ex shoulder has 1 hit of armor and stomp still exists.
He has an air dash and his super is stun gun headbutt because Capcom hates me.
He also shoots rockets out of his ass.

How many rockets are we talking here? Hopefully at least 4+

But what about his DDT?!?!

Sounds like someone trying to sound sarcastic to hide that they truly did play Alex. :smiley:

Sure bud

I need this character in my life soon fuck the starting 16, just going to troll with fang in the meantime

What is the recovery on the ass rockets? Sounds like it could be a useful zoning tool but might be counter intuitive to his intended playstyle?

I hope alex can still combo off his medium and hard flash chops.

His v skill being the universal overhead would be just fine. Quick and safe. Same input and everything.

Desperate for info on my main dude. Doesn’t feel right getting into SFV without Alex. :tdown:

Dude seriously, gief is fun but alex should have been in the game at launch. …lesigh

The Alex of America just posted. You guys need to believe him

Ass rockets confirmed.

I hope he can anti air and juggle of the boot
