Already have some cool ideas for Lucia sequences. Her EX fireball is super similar to Dhalsim’s Yoga Flame, and Lucia has a crumple state from her EX running elbow. So looking at the arc here, she can probably dump bar from certain knockdowns(certainly CC sweep) to get the EX fireball behind the opponent, and then push them into it.

Me three.
I’m more and more appreciating what I’ve read about a lot of other players being frustrated with: the range that you play at in this game makes it easy to get overwhelmed or over focused on one thing. Its hard to keep everything ready to fire and still be able to do it in some of the time frames you need to (more for the fast dashes/shenanigan moves).
She recovers too slow from EX fireball and the crumple state from EX elbow is too fast
Something off of CC sweep at best like you mentioned
You use the crumple state as a pseudo CC sweep, akin to YZeku EX.Palm. It depends on if she hits the opponent performing EX fireball, if she needs to backdash to get the fireball behind them it’ll never have the data to work properly.
I think they kinda tried with BBTAG, but Tag isn’t doing so good, neither in Japan were BB is like super huge, bigger than GG currently.
I realy do think that Tag was a mistake and they should have done the next mainline game with a structure simliar to T7.
But also do their usual SP stuff, cause that can still hook people.
Like Release the game with all the Chars ready, some months later release the first 2 DLC chars, like every 3, 2 new chars.
Every 1-2 years full Upgrade with more SP Content on top of the existing one. New Story Chapter, new Arcade Paths, more Abyss stuff, Unlimited Mars, cause Unlimited Mode is dumb fun.
Balance tweaks every half year.
There could be a lot of nice ideas to come up with tbh.
her cr.mk looks like it’s going to have a funky hurtbox, she does a really weird pose when she does it. Hopefully it does funky low profile stuff and the raised arm doesn’t have a hurtbox.
Her st.hp looks pretty identical to Sak st.hp, her st.hk/b.hk looks like Kolin’s, cr.lk/cr.lp/st.lp are just the usual nothing special.
Has a df.mk slide akin to Cody prisoner slide. Pretty sure she has a b.hp command normal, or her cr.hp looks identical to Sak b.hp. Mid - heavy links are always good, but it looks super stubby similar to how Sakura’s st.mp > b.hp used to drop constantly.
Her st.lp target combos are basically Cody’s, and his TC options are great, so that’s good.
Didn’t see st.mk, sweep, or cr.mp during the trailers. I assume cr.mp will be the unoptimal link out of st.mp when you aren’t close enough for cr.hp/b.hp links.

You can quick rise after a crumple and that getup is faster than a regular knockdown. Plus the opponent crumples super fast (faster than Y.Zeku palm)
You’d still be in recovery frames if you tried to set anything up
Yeah, ArcSys’ games really feel like complete products with all the SP content and solid launch roster.
I’m really curious about whether or not they could keep up with a season model though.
I honestly see Tag as the spinoff it is. Just something to hold down the fort between main titles. I do think it was released too close to DBFZ to fulfill that role, but it could be worse.
With that said, I kinda want a new BB or GG already. Especially a BB sequel with the Xrd treatment, but GG has waited long enough.
Nah its defo Makoto and someone else, she got 2nd on the popularity poll, would be strange she is not in yet but the top 12 are.
That’ll be the thing I’m looking for after I get done compiling standard meaty set-ups, her run > elbow looks like it’s tailor made for that sort of pressure extension, outside of that in the trailer it looked hella weak at as a combo fodder tool.
Gonna throw this out there, but everyone complaining about the reveal, Capcom not saying anything about the characters so late, etc, but 4 characters by August is more or less in line with their development schedule. Yes, we were blessed with G and Sagat way early, but they weren’t supposed to release that early (Sagat anyways). The “We waited this long for this?” people need to realize this is about as much content as the other seasons got up until this point in the year. I would imagine Capcom scrapped the season passes cause they weren’t selling. Thus they went with doing things like this. Whether this current way of two big drops of characters for the year is right or not, I don’t have an answer. But I don’t think Capcom was wrong either. They were probably going to release these characters with a bang. Instead of saying “Here’s the characters for the year, p.s. you’re not getting half of them until August”, do a big drop at once. Then the leak happened pretty much ruining things. Ono is going back to Japan so I would imagine he’s getting reprimanded. They won’t announce anything else unless Ono gets the go ahead to show off the rest of the characters, even though they won’t release until December or whenever.
P.s. what I was trying to get at is they’re doing character packs ala costume packs instead of a seasons pass. So they did it this way.
Actually one less character by now than a normal season.

They were also late with other seasons. So “inline with their development schedule”
I honestly feel for you man. I know this has to feel like maximum fuckboi disease.
Ono is my guy and that will never change however can I just say… FUCK MATT THE STREETWRITER!
I’m sick of this fucking tea sipping crumpet eating mother fucker saying shit that never happens. Just stop nigga just stop. When people ask you about SF6 just say you’re under NDA and Yakuza will kill you if you even say Capcoms name. Don’t ever talk about this shit Matt. Don’t ever utter a word about Capcom games again. Just don’t fucking do it! The story MY ASS. You know what stories not finished? Me catching a flight to Frost Nation and throwing my broken PS4 control at Capcom HQ!!!

What.
Bruh, on normal seasons, capcom is releasing the fifth char by Evo.
Sagat was the hype surprise because everyone was expecting only G.
They were going to shadow drop the characters on Sunday. So they had sent the trailer over to Steam for the store page and somebody there leaked it. Then all hell broke loose.

My dude I thought you was cool with Lucia, what happened? Lmao
But that’s exactly the problem.
They went dark for 8+ months to deliver… slightly less than normal. Normally we would already have 3-4 characters and a balance patch by this point.
It would be like if you went to dinner, the chef told you to wait a bit longer for your food… and then when it came it’s a slightly under seasoned but otherwise fine steak. You’d be annoyed at minimum.
