It’s not a buff, its just a choice that has respective advantages and disadvantages. It’s not like they took the first ultra out, however the first month the game is released, I’m pretty sure that’s how everyone is gonna act.
Less damage than pretty much no damage is?
Right now, if the fireball is really significantly faster, that is far and away the most important change added. I see her as equal to current ken maybe with the changes so far.
Definitely a big deal, especially against non-projectile chars.
Does she actually have a second super? I don’t remember if that was a rumor that got squashed or what.
Squashed.
Rumor said that shinku would be a super, instead it’s an ultra.
I think the new cross-up is the biggest improvement.
Was screwing around with Bison and damn, that cross-up hits anywhere, half of the time I didn’t know where I would end up. Definitely want that goodiness on Saks.
What’s your rationale behind this fireball love? Are you talking about the fireball itself or sak’s startup and recovery? Perhaps I’m just used to forgetting she even has a fireball, but really better pokes would beat the pants off a better fireball for me.
yeah beter range/priority on pokes will help her loads. i also hope that her huricane kick doesnt whiff so much.
Both would be ideal, would be nice for Hadouken to be useful other than against a few characters at full screen and even then it’s not really a threat. I think I caught a glimpse of her s.HK in one of the videos and it seemed a lot faster :tup:
So Sakura isn’t getting two supers after all… I wonder what that rumor came from.
I’ve never been too excited about ultra fireballs, so I’ll stick with the Haru Ranman I guess.
new ultra seems cool look like it can be comboed with an Ex hurricane kick or a H Shoryuken FADC cancel.
Sakura top 5 in SSF4 u heard it here first. we shall return to glory.
This, basically. It means you can go for the full knockdown combos without forfeiting your mixup. Tell me that isn’t worth it alone.
j.mk crossup!
My prayers have been answered! :clapdos:
I’ve already mastered the j.lk crossup. I hope that you can still use both of them.
All we need now is some better pokes and at the very least, for EX Otoshi to be an overhead :3
Overhead otoshi wouldn’t do much. It goes over crouchers, so it would be spacing dependent… They should make it arch lower to the ground.
Think about an overhead otoshi that allowed you to go into your c.HP bnb’s. That would be tight.
Sounds awesome, but I really don’t see how that would work. Unless they changed the move not to launch but give lotsa hitstun instead…
just give her the dive kick and she’s good to go.
