Still better than using focus to do the same thing, which is a universal tool, is safer, and doesn’t require any timing. You’re not going to see any of Rose focus-backdashing both hits of an EX fireball - anything that could work like that keeps the opponent stationary for punishment.
Guest characters could happen from the Sony sponsorship but I’m not sure what character really fits in SF.
what if he decides to v-skill jab sonic and you jump over and combo him.
i haven’t had a chance to really use nash, maybe tonight but that seems like an obvious way to use his advantage to hurt him. As soon as he needs to consider you may do that you can approach differently.
I can’t speak for Nash but as Bison, unless you are directly on the ass of a HP Boom he can just absorb and then punish any jump in attempts with cr.hp or super
You can use psycho reflect vs longer pokes and far jump-ins. It can work.
If they press anything it gets beat out because of the startup on the counter part and they can do this on reaction.
You don’t necessarily have to reflect anything though. Having said I need time to actually understand how PR works properly.
You always reflect limbs. You can’t just absorb them in this build
Was it? Hmmmmmmmmm. Well here’s hoping this build is a different one.
I would only try Psycho Reflect on expensive normals, like Nash’s crush counter punch.
Touche`
Tom is such a meh name
Alex/Ken/Dan/Cody/Sean are just so amazing though, right? 
I’m going to break my vow of never taking Combofiend seriously and point out that his statement about Mika being a full grappler makes Alex more likely to appear in the initial roster since he’s more of an hybrid. If anything, full grapplers like Zangief or Hugo are the ones whose chances just took a nosedive.
They’re not, but Tom seems like an old man’s name.
Since Mika is now SFV’s staple grappler, all we need is a rekka and zoning character to complete the spectrum.
Or maybe a character that can both zone and use rekkas.
If the leaks are right, Karin is kind of a rekka character, but she’s really more like Abel if CoD was safe all the way through.
What we really need isn’t necessarily a rekka character but someone who makes Bruce Lee noises.
Setting aside the leaks, right now we have an offensive grappler, a defensive grappler, two footsie characters, a divekicker, a strike grappler, a pressure character, a run stop character, a rushdown character, and Ryu.
We’re missing a rekka character, a torpedo character (Blanka/Honda), a fireball zoner, a stretchy limb character, a slow grappler (as Mika seems like a faster one than your traditional Zangief grappler), a high low meaty character, and a boss type.
SFV is spreading out the anti-zoning tools so I don’t think we’ll see that role and they’re purposefully avoiding the vortex.
I’d love to see a Fei Long redesign where he uses more aspects of shadowboxing. Make him sort of like Scorpion/Fei.
…like Poison? 
Jokes aside, that won’t happen no matter how much I want it (besides DLC). But it’s funny how a character like that is kinda needed right now. I can only hope~
And if their characters were completely different in every other way.
remember that Siliconera report guys ? :3
