So Appo made a post with his alt and then had his OG account like it?

Wack as hell.

This thread got people losing their minds. Zio made a triple post to defend KoF 2k2 and now this.

Peeps need to stop parrying mental health help.

I always wonder how people like their own posts on Facebook. Creating another account to like your own posts is just next level insanity.

We need the Insightful button back so KingCrimson can call me a genius.

If they put Google’s money towards KOFXV then I fully support SNK’s decision.

But Smash has footsie characters like Terry and Ken. And you can throw fireballs and AA DP.

WHY OH WHY CAN’T IT BE REAL?

Pull yourself together and come catch this poison.

Oh great, another character that just shits on Ryu. Thanks, Capcom, really doing justice for the poster boy and beginner’s first of the series

This shit looks like Automobili Lamborghini on the N64. I can’t wait to see these all over Cali.

Gill has to input down + vskill to parry low attacks. Ryu doesn’t need to. And that’s why it’s justified to make Gill’s parry better.
I know it’s cool to hate on sfv but come on. Surely you know better.

The problem is that it’s a false equivalency. Yes, in a vacuum Ryu gets worse recovery in exchange for not having to guess high/low but if you have a read on the opponent enough to feel the ability to go for the Parry to begin with, then chances are you know what button they’re gonna press.

High/Low isn’t even that much of an actual guess in most matchups if you know the characters. So Gill gets a far better Parry for making a modicum of a stronger read. Ryu’s Parry having the recovery it does makes the move nigh useless. Parries generally have to carry minimum recovery to even be viable.

Yes and no. While I agree that Gills parry is probably generally better than ryu’s, the fact that it requires your read to be “harder” in many situations is not as insignificant as you are suggesting.

Do we know for sure what frame the parry begins on? If it’s actually frame 1 that could be very stupid. My guess is it’s frame 2 or 3 like the other parries.

Ryus parry SUCKS! Case closed!

I think its gonna depend on how fast it starts up and how long the recovery is but even then I’d say it’s better than ryus even with having to pick high/low since most time you use a parry you’re not just throwing it out there you have an idea of what you’re trying to parry, ideally ypure not just throwing it out there. And Gill gets hella reward off it.

With all of this Gill down parry talk, I wonder if 3s style parry OS will be possible with sfv Gill. Maybe something similar to an SGGK?

Or if they will even be useful IF you can do them.

Has a whiff animation so no OS.
