R.Mika General Thread: She's Stone Cold

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLCnmXCx-rs
More of her gameplay (starting at 7:07 mark).

Lol. Evo moment #37 at the end.

Is there a backstory on R Mika’s heritage. Is she completely Japanese or is there Scandinavian in her?

Alpha 3 and SF2 actually occupy the same time period in the SF timeline, according to SF4’s continuity. SFA1/A2 are around 5 years before them.

It’s been at most 5-6 years since SF2/SFA3 if this game takes place right before NG and at least 7-8 if it takes place after 3S.

R. Mika would be in her mid 20s I presume and she looks her age.

… Damage output, though…
Plus, that potential V-Skill power up.

Doubt it. Think shes just a thick bodied asian with blonde/dyed hair. Its rather common in anime for asian characters to have pretty much any color of hair.

A crouch throw? That’s pretty neat. You just know she’ll be scary in the right hands. Also; half-circles, yay!

Vega’s face looks so strange, it’s like a grown baby.

Of course Combofiend favors R-Mika , he likes them thick like Jenny Walters.

People can’t say she sucks anymore , they completely overhauled her moveset and playstyle. They will have to respect the butt now.

That V-Trigger is scary. It’s just like a Marvel Assist. (Although it’s ovious you can’t spam it as much)

From the Mike Ross vs Comobfiend video , it looks like there’s no start up or recovery animation for Mika during the summon. She can do whatever she wants while summoning it, just like a Marvel Assist. It can be used as a combo extender or to advance safely ( and maybe even cover unsafe moves too )

OMFG her win pose! She just runs around the defeated character cheering. Im in love with this character.

I’m glad she still has her basic gameplay from Alpha. I’m more afraid however that Zangief is going to make fighting him up closer harder since he has better grappling options. That’s why Fuerte was a better matchup for him because of his mobility. R. Mika is a more grounded wrestler, so she is going to be playing more to his game. The assist might make the match better, I suppose. Having El Fuerte’s Splash attack without the consequences of being punished for it feels good.

I’m disappointed that they didn’t bring back her run super from Alpha. It looked like it could have led to more mix up options, but having El Fuerte’s Run command be limited to a critical art doesn’t sound fun to me. Still hoping he gets in, though.

If you had hidden the game, the character and the moves and shown me that chart, I’d thought this would be a KOF grappling character

Needs more follow up chain inputs.

Why anti-air grab is not a DP motion? :open_mouth:

Dem peaches

Damn after seeing her in game she looks so much better than the old ass grapplers like gief/hawk sf4 iteration.

Shhhhhh shh shh shh shh

Don’t bring attention to it, just roll with it.

You can direct her wall throw… That is sick. Reminds me of the kinds of moves you’d see from grapplers in Tekken.

Can not wait to try this chick out.

What’s weird to me is the fact that Mika only has one V-Reversal. Was the info from Gamescom false or did they just not add the second one yet?

Its false. Vega has 2 backflip V reversals so they assumed everyone had 2.
