I remember you posting that clip of his VSkill effectively beating an EX DP from Ibuki.
My thought at the time is that you’re going to see Cody players mashing that shit like Ed’s EX DP online. Its definitely going to make pressuring him more of a pain in the ass than the rest of his kit implies.
His intro video was cool. I’m looking forward to seeing what people pull off with him.
PeepingBird is FilipinoMan’s alt account.
That’s what I figured. I know a Falke player that has 3 Steam CFN accounts also. Two Super Plat accounts and one Ultra Gold account and he apparently uses all 3 of them regularly.
The fact that he has a catch all neutral blow up/anti air along with a fireball that’s really difficult to neutral jump means he will be a real bully in the neutral. Im afraid people are going to call for nerfs when Cody players figure out fireball to v skill whiff patterns where he can effectively build his v gauge while zoning you. It’s definitely the best V Skill that can build on whiff in the game (and there aren’t a lot of v skills that build on whiff)
Very good points.
Thankfully the online community is all about figuring out problems and not calling for characters to get crucified if they are even a little hard to fight against.
A part of the online Diamond community likes to quit a FT3 after losing 2 games in a row. Then say in chat “You can’t beat me!”
Correction: Had to add Diamond, I’m sure Super Diamonds aren’t this childish.
I love that Cody get do HK ruffian into MK ruffian in the corner. This damage is gonna add up
That’s another reason why I hoped BL would get more features. You really get to know a person after some sets. How much of a bitch do you have to be to quit a set just to pick another character and expect someone to take you serious.
Bring back FREE CHATTING. I need to have real conversations with these players in-game.
Damn…those nerfs gona hit cody hard in 4.5
if I win a game against someone with more points than me and it is really laggy, I will still give them a runback, but I will not play a 3rd game.
Just few days and we’re going to know Cody ins & outs and not just theory. His V-Skill is good, but still leaves room for meaties and it’s CC-able if blocked. Builds a ton of meter, but grey damage too, Capcom balanced this move well. Cody’s zoning doesn’t seems OP, the fact that is improved in VT state makes him rightfully stronger. I don’t understand if the pipe in VT2 stays even when the VT is gone.
Free Chatting? Just bring back audio chat, or have better ending taunts/ quotes.
Cody will be on free trial for two days between the 25th and the 27th.
No idea why they didn’t make it a full week trial, but Capcom operates with a very particular mindset that doesn’t follow any logic.
So everyone will be turning back the beat for 2 days ?
Good, imo they should do about 5 days trial for every character when they launch and also leave them unlocked IN TRAINING mode , i dislike risking 100k FM just to see if i like the character or not.
Y’all ready to get this FM and LP from the unrefined Cody army?
Ya’ll ready to get this FM with our unrefined Cody army?
Yup, we’re going Diamond at the end of next week.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA!
I really want dat Diamond tho.
Sure thing Capcom sold Cody better than Sakura, Blanka and Falke combined. I think the bigger part of SFV playerbase needs something stupid to justify the usage of a character and Cody doesn’t look stupid to me. The only SF4 Cody main who tried his SFV version said he’s no near the top 10 actually. Outside OG’s Cody users I foresee an exodus after a week or two.
