Man, i’m loving cody right now and the buffs he’s getting soon will be worth my time learning him now. I’m too curious about what else their doing with cody since they don’t mention the “small things”. We shall see.
little lost on how EX CU would help there. EX CU would still get beat out by burn kicks, seismos, most of viper’s already better options.
:shake: considering Cody isn’t changing that much overall, I don’t see what stopped you beforehand.
Regular Zonks would have beat the burn kicks. Where the EX CU would have helped was in the second round when latiff was just bullying the Cody on his wake up with the close standing short shenanigans (which would beat regular Zonk). It would force Viper to respect Cody’s wake up more.
Why not learn him now? It’s not as if he can’t be competitive in his current state.
Indeed. Momochi and Sasaki anyone?
If I can win with dudley then I can sure as hell win with cody. Mu’s like akuma/sagat or fire ball heavy characters i’d probably go dudley but everything else cody.
More info coming in tomorrow for Cody from the dev blog. This is going to be stuff from the current build.
Have a feeling he is going to either:
[LIST]
[]Get small nerfs like stun reduction or one of his buffs taken away
[]Get nothing
[*]Get a tiny buff like extra stun or damage on one of his under used normals
[/LIST]
I wouldn’t mind increased damage on the cr.LP. Lol.
no worries, we got the Akuma treatment. nothing changed.
I’ve got a feeling any changes at this point are gonna be nerfs, so hopefully nothing will change.
They haven’t added anything more which means Cody is probably well balanced.
Cody IMO was already pretty balanced in Super. He just needed those few tweaks. I think he could stand for a few knife tweaks (more on the hold/drop mechanic) but I’m overall satisfied with the guy.
At least more satisfied than what capcom’s trying to do with Rose…
There’s still one more round of this iirc, so he’s nit completely in the clear yet. Hopefully though he sticks with what he’s getting though.
Sigh…I hate viper :’( lol
lol I love the rose changes.
dudley:
no more safe jumping =/
blanka got knockdowns on ex vertical and up ball, will be significant harder to deal with now on wakeup.
Yeah not surprised they added nothing for Cody. I assume they will be done with him.
Also did anyone see those Dudleuy buffs?
You’ll still be able to safe jump Dudley without EX because his HP Jet Upper doesn’t have any invincibility, or enough to beat your safe jump.
The 4f safe jumps will still work on both characters, EX Upball knocking down is a huge buff for Blanka though.
Well, as opposed to some people here I’m not satisfied with what Cody got until now, I was hoping for more goodies in the Beta.
The nice long list from the Alpha version of AE only looked nice because it was made of buffs only and because it was a long list, but in reality most of these buffs are worthless, it isn’t game changing for Cody, while lots of other characters get way better buffs than him, he might even drop in the tier list way further because of that.
He more or less will still remain the same as he was in AE, he will still have huge problem dealing with heavy pressure, I’m not happy 
At least, no nerfs.
