Big big changes before the demo on Friday:
Game speed, throw button, online fixes, intro animations, balance, graphics updates.
"Walkspeed increased for all charactersâŚ"
WOOHOOO-
"Except Midori"
Oh
So yomi counters are gone? I donât understand the new throw system.
Itâs a button. Thatâs the only change.
Theyâre still there. All thatâs different is you throw with a button, and f/b throws beat neutral throws
Why? Whatâs the logic behind that?
Itâs only on same frame clash and itâs to incentivize leaving neutral so you canât yomi counter while preparing your throw. Itâs a very small thing.
Whats the Yomi counter? Just a regular.counter with a special name or?
You donât tech throws, you yomi counter them by doing nothing at all. Yomi counter is a counter attack.
Wait, you beat throws by doing nothing?
HuhâŚ
I wish you had throw shortcuts at this point.
Yup. The most accessible way this game came up with to counter throws.
What do you mean?
Itâs pretty neat.
- itâs very easy to do
- the consequences of doing it at the wrong time are high (33% of your health, generally)
Nothing includes not blocking.
Itâs honestly genius, probably the smartest thing to come out of the game
I would imagine it was done to prevent people from doing auto-pilot shit to counter throws. It wouldnât make sense to call it a yomi counter if you could do it with an option select.
Thereâs also the immense satisfaction of landing a yomi counter
I couldnât agree more, there is nothing quite like closing a game out with a yomi counter because your controller disconnected.
Throw button huh? so he finally caved on it. Im sure all the more footsie oriented people are happy about the change.
