I hope his moves, including his super, have a universal charge time, none of this Chun Li SBK different times.
This is the only thing that worries me a little. They gave Nash both sobat and something similar to the bazooka knee, so this might mean the crouch move (which iām assuming is 3xP) is the only way to maintain charge whist moving forward. In that case, bazooka knee and sobat are probably replaced by something similar to his neutral st.lk and st.mk in SF4. If he still does have those moves then I donāt really see the point in giving him the charge crouch, so thatās why I think his normals have definitely been altered.
Can someone explain the v-skill? It sounds to me it works like one of Lauraās fireballs?
Itās glorious! (what did you expect from one of the best songs that goes with everything?)
Very classic metal, with some 3rd strike feel beat to it.
His stance is perfect. Right outta SF2.
His super will most likely be motion based on the whole ācopy from 3rd Strikeā bit that the game has going for it.
Guile V-Reversal is backfist? Can anyone translate his profile page?

It seems like most people are assuming his crouch walk is a command input, but Iām kind of hoping itās just what happens when you press down-forward, like a forward-only darkstalkers crouch walk. I think thatād be really cool, I think a weird walk-forward stance thing would be kind of clumsy, especially for a character thatās usually pretty elegant and low-execution.
Yes, I assumed that his crouch walk happened when you simply held down forward, that way you still kept a charge for flash kicks while moving forward.
But the down forward motion doesnāt allow you to throw booms :-/
Thatās why Iām thinking the crouch walk may just be a special move command that automatically starts moving you forward and then you can just input a charge. Most likely doing any normal or special move will cancel it.
Itās going to be a coward crouch input. Youāll be able to press db+ppp or db+kkk to do it. This will let you keep both back and down charge.
Think Kyās seals in Xrd where his projectiles get buffed if they pass through them, but this time, the āsealā itself can hit.
I was just reading the translation of the capcom japan page and it sounds like you can fire a sonic boom into it to create an even more powerful fireball. Guile sounds like he might play a lot differently than we even realise right now.
Sad that backfist is his V-Reversal. Nash has that as a normal already so Iām not particularly surprised.
That V-skill sounds fucking baller.
I wonder if youāre able to finish a combo into it too? Will it absorb opponents fireballs so you donāt even need to have a charge for booms? Maybe you can fire a sonic boom into it so it crosses up if they fail to quick rise. His V-Trigger sounds really good too (even if it is 3 bars). The possibilities with V-Skill and V-Trigger (SF4 omega booms) combined is the first thing Iām going to test.
Iām not going to lie, he sounds pretty powerful right now. Even if heās shit tier Iām all aboard the hype train though.
I wonder if weāll get him before the end of the monthā¦
