SF5 Lounge: Idom Wins. Only Poison is Woman enough for Capcom Cup

:rofl: It’s funny because it’s (probably) true

Might be? MIGHT BE??
Spam f.hp, doesn’t need to cc because it now combos into hp flash chop on hit, 400 damage either way. Oh you lost Oki? Oki is meaningless when you can vs2 stomp xx lk elbow from anywhere to get in again safely, meterless.

Bison got nerfed but we just got ourselves another Bison.

I was wondering about that. In the doc they mention that Laura can confirm her c.mk into a special

Exact quote: The cancel window for a Crouching MK has been increased, to allow cancelling into Special Moves to be executed upon hit confirming.

It sounded like they were trying to give a bigger cancel window to her cr.mk into light bolt. They kept mentioning making it easier.

Anyone messing around offline to see what they can find?

Yeah going back and reading it specifically says they increased the cancel window for cr.mk.

Isn’t “Sunset Wheel” Laura’s command grab? The notes have this weird line about the medium version having longer range to allow existing combos

I can’t see this too well, but it looks like Ryu’s VS2 is -4 OB. VT1 buff looks nice though

I’ve heard people saying Seth will bring Poongko back to SFV but I don’t think so… outside of the nostalgia costume it’s pretty much a brand new character. No spinning pile driver, no sonic boom, no river dancing ambiguous crossups… he’s pretty much Seth in name only.
If anything Kolin will bring him back since she’s got a literal command grab now plus buffs, she’s gonna be Poongko levels of bullshit. Well hopefully

You can combo into Kolin’s second v skill. So on top of building stun, you can just lock it in just like that. What?

Smh

I already have a decent chunk of Alex players in my area in matchmaking…

By far my least favorite character to fight given the state of the net code

I’m trying to read the English patch notes, why is it all written in barely intelligible chicken English?

Nevermind, I know the answer to that.

Yeah, they made the light command grab slower on startup but increased its range it already had the most range of the three (except ex). And they gave the medium one the old light version range so it wouldn’t fuck up people’s setups.

Currently Laura discord is taking all this as a buff. Mainly cr.mk and now having three different versions of ex clap.

That Ed Vskill2 is a shitty Bison hand me down.

Yeah slow ex clap is going to lead to some hilarity im sure

Trying not to fall into the Laura trap again

Me too, I’m stoked to give her a whirl. She actually looks mad fun. I really wish she was at the afterparty event, just to see some of those normals
