They did on the first blog.
But Rose doesn’t get useless changes compared to Chun Li; it’d be rare to find useless changes for Rose.
Anything can help.
I predict something like:
Akuma (Rose)
No additional changes since the “SSFIV AE Ver.2012 Alpha” location test.
:sleep:
Okay, getting a little hopeful here, but I’m going to be even more disappointed if she doesn’t get a decent buff now.
She got a few decent buffs in the last one.
Are you hoping she becomes a top tier character?
LOL.
Right…
By the way, I find that comment somewhat insulting, I’ve been playing Rose since SF4, and all the way through the Alpha series because I love her. If I wanted her to be a top tier character I would have dropped her… no scratch that, I wouldn’t even have picked her up.
I just want some decent buffs, why the hell wouldn’t I?
Well im glad we all agree (except anton) that her buffs sucked.
Vanilla Soul piède is a great buff…but i agree she need more
I thought her buffs were decent, but definitely not enough to fix her major flaws. The only thing that fixed something broken was her U2 buff.
Let’s all say a pray
"Dear heavenly and most merciful father, we pray this pray today
That rose gets her just reward for what is needed, not wanted, but needed
We pray that you soften Capcoms’s heart and allow them to do what is right
We hope to see a few “useful” buffs coming our way"
In Jesus name we pray… Amen!
Nooooooo… Stop it!!! or what we gonna get for only buff is a new move : Soul Pray: taunt move, 25 frames, build 10 super meter… 
her buffs werent bad, but yeah she does need more. i dont think shes gonna get them though…
…does anyone else think that gouken/evil ryu are getting more buffs than they need? we need some of their stuff lol
I have a question about U2
Back in Super it had 5f startup and 5f recovery and no invincibility right ?
What’s so different about it in v2012 except that the hitbox on the orbs are smaller ?
LMAO.
I got wind that one of her changes *could *be letting her orbs stay when shes hit and that it was in at one point.
We shall see tonight 
You can’t block immediately afterwards. Basically invincibility.
Basically, it will be beaten by less things, more combo-viable (cr.hp, soul spark, fadc, U2, cr.hp, spiral punish combo), and we get our semi-unblockable after back throw back without the “broken-ness” that was the instant blocking.
but didn’t U2 back in super had no invincibility as well ? if the startup and recovery is the same doesnt it mean we are able to block right away after activation ?
This would be… the single… saddest… most depressing thing Capcom could do… That would essentially be Ono saying “Look, guys, I know you like this Rose or whatever… but I’m really not sure why the hell I ever included her in the first place and I’m for some Lord only knows why reason afraid to make her good…”
I’m not sure why, but I am strangely (and uncharacteristically) optimistic…
The mines of salt that this would make…
So you’re saying that +1/+4 on st. mk isn’t a good buff?
Or bringing back our soul piede back in a heavily rushdown game that can preemptively, but safely stop jump ins?
Or a 5 frame soul satellite?
All of this effectively makes her better than her Super version barring wake up invincible godly soul satellite.
Those aren’t decent buffs? You guys are tripping; be glad that we’re better than Yang now, we’re just missing the same thing that Rose has always been missing;
And I feel we’re going to get good news tonight.
I feel that they’re going to revert her sweep back and do something with the satellites. >.>
You know, I’m not actually sure about the specifics, but I’m quite sure that we don’t get the instant block-ability like we did before. Maybe we could block right after but not do anything else for the 5 frames. If the recovery was ACTUALLY 5 frames we would get hit by meaties. There’s some sort of quirk in there.
And we don’t know if cl.mk is +1 on block yet. :< But yeah, that would be good. Not really necessary, but still nice.
I really just want them to fix EX spiral and U1’s startup.
