Dudley Changes in Arcade Release(updated1stpost)

Hopefully the current changes either get better or stay where they are. I don’t think Dudley seriously needs a nerf anywhere specific.

all I can think of is full screen EX duck to bait a fireball, and bam, Rolling Thunder!!!

Yea I won’t be suprised if he does get a nerf stick to his dmg. I wonder what is the stun on his rose atm? And wil the speed increase be enough for us to actually do somehing with it?

the rose gives a good enough about of stun its just that the current recovery is to long so he cant do anything up close as its hitting

yeah all Ive been wanting is a slightly better hitbox on his s.hk, better ssb

ex ducking sounds nice if its recovery is instant you could ex duck from really far away through a fireball and still have time to punish with a s.hk into combo.

Useful Victory Rose = [media=youtube]6PzUz_6WmXE[/media]

am I the only one that thinks that Thunderbolt might have gotten buffed?
XD

I hope ex-Ducking DOESN’T get armor cause i like to duck-ultra tatsu’s… so much fun
(i negative edge the Ultra to see how far they are traveling over me)

I want SSB to at least take a STEP back not just lean back, (at least a lil’ out boxer hop)

Maybe a little change to his Focus attack lvl 1… not enough hit-stun

I want to KEEP my overhead…

(maybe Rose can count as a solid hit instead of a projectile… so maybe on resets [if there’s time] we can create some evil resets) <- but that would break him…

wait wait wait…i’ve been absent all weekend…Tell me all that EXMGB stuff about going through fireballs was just someone trolling. I actually love the way it works now, and st.hk is all you ever need to ensure it connects. The last thing i wanna see are people throwing full screen MGB’s like it’s nobody’s business. It’ll be like watching that early Dudley footage from Germany again. -_-

Discussion wise, given what we heard about a few other buffs with other characters, how much do you think this would improve Dudley’s game? Anyone pose more of a threat to Dudley now? Would these few additions make him more tournament viable?

Near as I have seen, there is no proof of EXMGB going through fireballs. Just some claims from some anonymous player.

The rose could absolutely improve dudleys game if it works correctly, all dudleys shall be getting in and setting up for true 50/50s, and ex duck could help us get in easier as well, and faster roundhouse well… thats obvious.

Not to mention maybe it’ll give us better oki rather than eating a shoryuken when they wake up.

can we make c.hp a good anti-air? Just speed it up by like 2 or 3 frames?
Give f.HK 2 more active frames and 2 less recovery frames. Adjust Block and Hit advantage to be the same.
Give SSB some use. I don’t care how, just make it happen.
Rose trixzies plz

EX Duck:

Either give it armor

or

Keep it so that it has little to no recovery, but take out the follow-up options [upper & straight] so I can do a clean s.hk that combos. I want a loop god dammit.

exactly. ^.^

The recovery of Victory Rose is not the issue, because if it hits you are on +6 and if it is blocked you are on +9. The issue is the start up is RIDICULOUSLY slow. It is physically impossible to use it on anything other than a dizzied opponent. Can’t even throw it after a focus crumple cos they will drop to the floor by the time it comes out!

So i hope what they actually meant was, the move in general is faster and it can be used for what it was meant for. A safe way of meatying the opponent without putting your body on the line.

Rose won’t help much against Ryu will it? His mp. DP will knock that shit off like it’s nothing and he can still FADC to make it safe.

That’s why you bait with the rose. :slight_smile:

this was too funny which then means dudley is 9 - 1 against shotos. rofl…

Still no word on Dudley’s jet upper? :’(

After reading this, I just happy thought of envisioning Dudley destorying every shoto/fireball zoning cheap bastard with that techinque. I cannot wait to see EX duck in action.

You guys use RT vs shotos?

ive been debating on weather or not i should use rolling thunder against any fireball characters…

Only against Ryu & Sagat.
