Rashid General Thread: Desert Storm - second new character

Prince of Persia.

2:56

Now, that is one odd fucking trajectory for a projectile.

This guy looks sick as fuck, haha. He’s gonna be a serious problem.

His stance resembles Ken’s though, lol

Without Aegis, Urien isn’t Urien.

His theme got leaked too!

I can’t see this guy as a villain. Under affiliation it just says Eldest son of a Middle Eastern family. His likes are new things, movies, and friends.

Not very sinister.

I think his family is rich and prestigious if they took the time to explain he’s the eldest son. Maybe royalty so that’s why he has a bunch of gadgets to mess around with? Or just a really rich family

Rashid vs Bison: “I win, now return my friend, thats all I ask”

His likes are apparently: “new things, movies and friends”

I’m really digging it since he seems more rushdown than anything. Definitely going to have to give him a try. Could see him and Ken being rivals.

My initial reaction was pretty lukewarm. I didn’t like the Yun/Fuerte vibe he was giving off, even if that’s still kind of there for me. His fucking genie super is badass though. Having said that, I do like his design. Scouter and jetpack are a little dumb but so what? This isn’t SNK, SF designs are allowed to be goofy. If he turns out to be an inventor or something and those are his own gadgets that would be even better.

I like his normals. I don’t even understand whats going on. That one bit where he just kind of moves around in the air and then does a dropkick crush counter? wtf is that about. I really want to just see a video of his normals.

Do we know what his v skill is?

Dude looks awesome. Awesome design, awesome movelist, awesome voice, awesome CA.

Hard to tell…I couldn’t notice anything generating bar in that gameplay video, but he had full stocks for the majority of the rounds.

My money so far is on the roll he does to punish the fireball. Traditionally v-skills are shown at the beggining of the video and that one sort of makes sense. He’s running before rolling somaybe that’s part of his v-skill.

Also after that they show a backflip move and he comes back with a kick that lands a crush counter. Maybe the flip/roll thing is the vskill and you get followups depending on when you use it. Kinda like a very remotely Rolento roll, but it could be just a normal.

yeah he equips an AK47

I have to say, he is really well animated.

He seems to be annoying to fight against.

Similar. But his idle animation also looks Bruce Leeish imo.

Guy players are going to love Rashid.

I don’t even think we’ve seen his v-skill? The roll and forward diving kick seem like options your can take after his run (which I assume is a command run).

And it’d be a bit redundant to give him a run v-skill after giving Ken one.
