R.Mika General Thread: She's Stone Cold

Needs more ass jiggle physics to show off Unreal Engine 4 B)

After watching the trailer again it seems like a lot of her normals have a pretty decent range.
Her jump roundhouse seems to go very far as well. Anti air seems reliable.

What I like the most about her gameplay is the assist calls. It may sound stupid to compare it but I love pet classes in RPGs, so it’s amazing to see someone else coming in to help Mika. =)

Also lol, look at Vega. Dat SFIV “I got hit by Ryu U2” face :

Aww. Love the chin. Haha.

^ No wonder Vega wears a mask all the time /kappa

In regards to that article on R.Mika’s outfit everyone’s mentioning. I don’t even care about what they had to say. My thing is why was an article dedicated to a character’s outfit??? Like do they have nothing better to report on? I mean I’m not saying they can’t discuss it because that would be censoring them which is bad. But a whole article dedicated to a character’s outfit? Really? Couldn’t just post a comment on a R.Mika trailer or something saying you don’t like it, or a poll asking people’s opinions?

Dude, it’s Kotaku. They’re posting random shit all the time, I don’t even know why they consider themselves to be a gaming news outlet. I mean, fuck, even IGN looks more professional in comparison

Vesper has done a character breakdown for her

I’m not a Mika player but I’ve tried to make a breakdown of the trailer.

[list=1]
[] Jumping Heavy Punch ~ Standing Heavy Punch x Flying/Shooting Peach
[
] Hagotori Command Grab, no follow up, just a command grab (when the move was different in Alpha)
[] Throw Away (command grab) > Crouching Heavy Kick, her slide
[
] Rainbow Sobat, Forward Medium kick. Low Crush, certainly airborne.
[] Crouching Medium Punch (good AA. I don’t think it will be as good as Birdie’s)
[
] Regular throw, powerbomb.
[] V reversal, Stunner (knockdown)
[
] Back throw, Frankensteiner.
[] Jumping Heavy kick ~ Launcher (Special ? Command ?) x Ex Wingless Airplane (grab anti air, works certainly like King’s Dp in X Tekken)
[
] Ex Giant Swing (with a Nakedoshi’s cameo at the end). Switch the position of both character.
[] Daydream headlock > V trigger neutral (vody splash)
[
] Heavy Kick … V trigger front (dropkick) > Heavy kick x Ex Flying/Shooting Peach
[] V trigger (pretty fast)
[
] Light Punch (seems good) > V trigger back (dropkick) x Wingless airplane
[] Ex Hagotori Command grab (same than the giant swing, Nakedoshi helps her)
[
] Ass Sandwich Critical Art, looks like a grab.
[/list]

We can see her jump, her backdash (a part of it at least) and that’s all. I note that all of her command grab make a mini groundbounce (so her neutral trigger assist combo I guess). Oh, and as I said before, I can’t tell which Peach it is (she don’t turn around and don’t fall on her butt during the move)
I got some questions about some moves (why does she crouch before the Heavy Kick, what’s the launcher move) but I will wait until gameplay video for the answers. Feel free to correct this.

Edit : Oh, maybe Vesper has answers, thanks for the video.

I think the biggest issue is we have no idea of how her v skill works so far.

I wonder about the possibilities of her V-Trigger…

EDIT: Autocorrect

she looks great, good job Capcom! You are making me more interested on SF again.

Maybe we have an answer in the trailer. We know that the monologue enhances her throws and normals. Maybe that upgrade is the fact that her assist helps her during command grab (the regular ex giant swing would cause a wallbounce when the ex giant swing after the speech would be that tag team combo, swing then bulldog).

I only wish that her hair was more smooth like Cammy and Nash’s, and less “sculpted” like Ken and Vega’s. Other than that, she looks really good, and her tag team stuff is pretty unique.

hype for the game doubled.

I believe you’ve been tricked by some unsavory sorts in this thread into believing something happened that probably didn’t. Observe:

"R. Mika And Her Ridiculous Outfit Join Street Fighter V

Here’s a strange one: R. Mika, a wrestler who first appeared in Street Fighter Alpha 3, is joining the cast of the newest Street Fighter game, impractical costume and all.

She looks fun to play—check out those wrestling moves—but this is an odd choice given Mika’s lack of pedigree. Cool throwback, though!

Street Fighter V is out next spring for PS4 and PC."

With the exception of a block quote from Capcom describing R.Mika, that’s the extent of the article you’re referencing. It’s a headline and three sentences introducing the announcement trailer, and it has brief mentions of R.Mika’s costume, which is the most striking part of her character design, so of course it’s going to be mentioned. People in this very thread have said much worse about it, and I definitely wouldn’t say this article was “dedicated to” or “hating on” R.Mika’s outfit, as people seem to believe.

Welp, guess I’m coming back to Street Fighter. Again. So happy…

I think the only thing I’m going to miss about the new moveset is no more mashing for extra damage. I mean I know it’s not 100% confirmed to be out but given that SF4 and SFV seem to be trying to eliminate throw mashing it seems unlikely.

One thing I miss though? Her ring jumping.

Wait so the american voice actors have not been cast/recorded yet right?

How would one go about creating a poll someone would actually care about to get Sasha Banks or Madusa to voice R.Mika’s american voice?

Capcom doesn’t own the rights to Karin, and the artist who does isn’t playing ball.

how long until the SJW gamer chicks start whining about her outfit?
