Eh, I guess it’s like you said. He’s much more comfortable with Sim, so he’d rather have a bad matchup with a character he fully understands than one he hesitates with. Im surprised Will2Pac didnt get in. But still, shout out to mrcrimson for getting that far with both Laura and Sim.
No more invulnerable SRK’s unless you use the ex version, anti-air jabs nerfed, Chun Li’s IAL minus on block. This changes everything. The everlasting light of Capcom has broken the curse.
However a new threat is looming on the horizon. Gief has a buffed lariat and better punishes, the darkness has receded but Russian winter cometh!
My feelings right now :
YES GOD!!!
OUR TIME HAS COME
PLEASE LET LAURA GET SOME SERIOUS BUFFS!!! PLEASE!!!
you got them already and for that they did not even needed to touch her at all.
Well tbh if it’s true that throws put the opponent further away it might be a big nerf to her. She already couldn’t get any real pressure off anything but back throws… I hope we won’t say goodbye to command grab loops.
P.S. the salt from Cammy players is so delicious right now tho. lol
I really hope Laura didn’t get nerfed. The Mika news has me worried.
I dont see how Laura will be nerfed. Mika is the one with all the better tools and gameplan. Laura has the worst of both worlds on some of her things.
I seriously doubt she won’t get hit by something, at the very least they have to be making some kind of changes across the board that will affect her. There has to be more to it than just weakening DPs.
As I said previously, what I’m really worried about are the throw nerfs. If all throws put the opponent further away then all her (fake) vortexes will be gone. No more mind games or conditioning will be possible after a knockdown. Hell, the only safe thing she could do after a command grab was st. HK, what if it’s gone?
I really hope they would add something to compensate the destruction of her oki.
I hope it’s only for regular throws, not command grabs as well.
If people tech less it will be harder to open them up though
The only thing I could think of is giving her less health in exchange for a decent EX Bolt to use as a reversal. That would put her in a similar situation than everyone else in the cast who has to spend meter to get the opponent off of them if they keep the changes to non-EX DPs.
Don’t really see what else they could nerf about her without ruining her. As mentioned by OceanMachine, if the throw distance change stays in that’s a massive nerf already.

This gives me hope. They are not nerfing throws for all characters but removing some oki from specific ones. They were probably saying all throws were worse because everyone at PSX was playing Ryu or Cammy.
Any details yet?
Yeah, what is he talking about? Or is he simply talking about the implications of non-invincible meterless DPs because that’s a massive buff to Laura in general.
Guys I’m gonna cry
