Falke is getting buffs, but not before December. :frowning:

Plus the homie BigTochiro posted. Time to buy some Powerball tickets.

Theory. What if…

Ed has been planning to show off Spawn for Evo and that’s what caused this little mess?

How u know dis

Only thing now is

what do they have to show for Evo then?

Nightwolf today, KP1 trailer on the 21st?

evo announcements are drying up…

My uncle who works at Capcom has told me to look out for Ono at EVO…

maybe

Ono said he won’t be on stage for SFV

doesn’t mean he won’t be on stage for NRS!!!

Capcom won’t commit another PR suicide by dropping a balance patch that can upset the current top players middle season.
That would be a major disaster for them. It is way too late into the CPT season to do re-balancing.

I dont know if this has been posted before but this is a rundown on the new character’s v system.

Blanka

[V-Skill – Neko Damashi]

Honda’s V-Skill is a heavy-handed clap that negates single-hit projectiles. It can cancel into his special moves on block and hit. V-Skill into light Hundred Hand Slap, for instance, is a true block string and leaves Honda at frame advantage.

[V-Trigger 1 – Onigawara]

His V-Trigger unlocks a more potent version of the Sumo Headbutt, called Oni-Daikaku. It can combo from any normal attack, has one hit of armor on start-up and can cancel into a second headbutt called Oni-Muso. Oni-Daikaku can also be used to guard crush the opponent on a full charge.

[V-Trigger 2 – Tajikarao]

Honda’s V-Trigger 2 unlocks a running command grab with one hit of armor. The grab can hit raw or as part of a combo, with Honda slamming the opponent into the nearest corner, gaining frame advantage and removing the opponent’s ability to perform a back recovery. This makes it a particularly strong tool for oki.

Lucia

[V-Skill – Tap-Kick]

Lucia’s V-Skill is a multi-hitting kick that can be cancelled from most of her normal attacks and leaves her at advantage on hit. You just need to be mindful that it’s very unsafe on block.

[V-Trigger 1 – Burning Fight]

Her V-Trigger 1 enhances all her kick-based special moves, and when combined with her EX command run, can lead to some flashy and highly damaging combos. It also causes her V-Skill to score a knockdown on the final hit, leading to more oki opportunities.

[V-Trigger 2 – Weapon Fury]

Lucia’s V-Trigger 2 equips her trusty baton and unlocks Tactical Weapon. This move can be cancelled from all her normal attacks, is safe on block and can combo into all her special moves. Suffice to say, it’s tailor made for frame traps and extending combos.

Poison

V-Skill – Perfume Swing]

Poison’s V-Skill is a swinging strike that can travel one of two distances. It can be cancelled from some of her normal attacks and allows for a follow-up strike. It can also travel over most projectiles if spaced correctly.

[V-Trigger 1 – Poison Cocktail]

Her V-Trigger 1 gives her access to Molotov cocktails. These can be thrown either straight up or ahead and cause steady chip damage by setting the ground on fire. They’re useful for setups and combo extensions.

[V-Trigger 2 – Poison Glamor]

Poison’s V-Trigger 2 unlocks two commands grabs – Toxic Hold and Toxic Bind. The former does more stun and damage, but has limited range. The latter can hit from over half a screen away, but has more start-up and recovery frames. Both can be used mid-combo.

I am still playing Falke, slowly working my way out of super platinum.
Gief is only for fun these days. I was going to pick Sakura as my secondary, but now I will have to try Lucia and Poison to decide which one will be the sub for bad Falke MUs.

I am also migrating to hitbox because I grew tired of breaking sticks, but the company that is building it is taking it’s sweet, sweet time to deliver it to me.
I guess they couldn’t handle the cuteness overload of the front panel art.

Tekken S2 pass just went on 50% sale on steam so I bought it.
On that note can we all agree that if T7 gets Tifa it officially breaks the FGC?

I need one of the following from Evo:

  1. New Blazblue mainline game
  2. SNK Shows KoF XV footage
  3. Iroha for SamSho
  4. Tifa in T7
  5. Bullet in BBtag
  6. GBFV releasing on PC and crossplay
  7. UNIST in the ArcRevo tour
  8. Darkstalkers/pocket fighters

If any of these things happen I will jizz my pants

And if Capcom has much more to reveal I will also feel a modicum of happiness.

The sales numbers for Tifa if she joined Tekken…:cold_sweat:

Thirst would spread across the world.

I mean, how do you know that there will be any rebalancing at all?

They always rebalance at the start of a new season.
