The v-trigger walk animation is so fucking rad
The Ken vs Necali vid shows DP doing 2 hits raw, Necali vs Vega (from IGN) shows it doing 3 hits. This, along with the existence of an EX version of the DP, seems to indicate it being a separate move. Stomps are usable outside of VT too. One of the more interesting things is that seismo is usable during VT, too. I recall them stating one of the downsides to Necalli’s VT is the removal of seismo, but I guess they backtracked on that for now.
So specials-wise he has:
Horizontal berserker
DP berserker
Stomps
Command grab
Seismo VS
3 bars, infinite V Trigger. It’s interesting that it still shows the bar sitting at full meter and I guess it just stays that way until someone is dead.
Time to see if V Reversals are worth using.
There was a Ryu player during a British stream of SF5 that disliked the VT and used his VR quite frequently. It seems incredibly potent at robbing momentum by interrupting otherwise safe blockstrings.
You know what else indicates it being a Separate Move? Someone putting up a move list where it’s listed under a separate move…
V-Trigger: Torrent of Power
Necalli releases his true power. All of his attacks become more powerful, with no time limit, but it’s a double-edged sword that makes him unable to use his V-Reversal. Suppress your opponents with ancient power!
On the other hand, doing it after knocking a bowl of noodles on their head is going to be epic
That’s because Necalli picks the opponent back out of the bus and throws them on the ground. Then the win animation plays
More Necalli footage.
Noticed that Vega has the same stupid neutral stance as Dean from Final Fight 3, where the opposite side hand is forward. Looks hella dumb
It seems Necalli might have similar stomp combos to evil ryu.
In the IGN video I saw that he can link stomp into super and also that he got in a crouching normal after one of the stomps (probably heavy version)
Unless stomp has some non-obvious properties it looks like it is only useful as a combo extender.
That’s fine, but that sort of thing always strikes me as a little unimaginative from a design standpoint.
I clearly remember someone saying during one of these recent interviews that the stomp goes through fireballs. However, immediately after, whoever was playing as necalli started using the v-skill to nullify projectiles so either both moves are capable of so or the interviewee just fucked up with his words.
for me it looks like the stomp is pretty similar to Hugos Clap
Ha, I like that they’re using the SF4 style of input display
his target combo looks sick and maybe its save on block if the pushback is big enugh?
Man I fucking love Necalli , Jesus someone hold me already
Capcom plz dont disappoint with other new challengers
The stomp is probably a frametrap/combo extender tool. It’s also pretty cool that he has a target combo into V Skill. My only worry is that his command grab seems kind of bad damage wise, but maybe it’s either super fast or has some special properties on it. I wonder how much you can get out of the EX version as well
