SFV Lounge: Makoto is coming for sure. F2P definitely. RIP Pertho's doggy

Wasn’t ryu considered very high in s1? Didn’t play this yet back then but I’ve read he was almost top tier, then as the seasons came he was considered low tier, so, why doesn’t capcom just revert him to s1? I don’t get it. Unless he’d be op of course.

He abused mechanics and meta that basically don’t exist in the game anymore.

They removed invincible dp and throw loops.

I’m already watching some matches on AliciaXLife’s stream and she’s already seeing freezes in what was listed as a “5 bar” match. Like the freezes were so bad I thought it was frame skips of the stream from my browser.

It’ll probably be playable vs the right people, but already evidence that it’s nothing amazing either.

Some developer studios still manage to mess it up, even with Valve doing most of the work for them. Koei Tecmo used Steam’s controller emulation for all gamepads (both Direct and XInput) with Dynasty Warriors 9, and somehow managed to break the right analog stick (camera control and aiming a bow). KT never bothered to fix it either, even though they’ve put out around 20 patches to that game.

So it is at least possible that Capcom will mess something up with this transition. Though I expect Capcom to actually fix any problems that occur here.

I’m yet to see a game that makes the phrase ‘good japanese netcode’ not an oxymoron.

I change my Avatar to Marie Rose if DoA6 is the first.

Speaking of Marie Rose she reminds me of how far into the deep end the anime has gotten in DOA LOL. Now Ayane is like srs bzns compared to some of the kawaii animu in this shit.

Zeku is fucking stupid as shit online literally one of the most annoying characters because of that slide BS. When your only option is to just let it happen that’s when shit gets annoying.

That kind of thing is usually related to the connections though.

5 bar really only means 5 bar at that moment.

This coming from a Kolin player is funny.

The only thing BS bout Zeku is his retarded stun and damage. Holy Jesus when he gets a real confirm with meter/trigger at the ready. Makes me want to puke.

Twinblades is just trying to stay out of Super Diamond hell and Y.Zeku’s nutty slide is getting in the way.

Although if I was a Kolin player at least I know I can fish V Skill (or if feeling really good low counter) to keep it a bit more honest. Can neutral jump it also, but Y.Zeku’s walk speed is too strong to test with neutral jumps all day.

That’s pretty stupid imo, especially considering how much slow his HK dp is. With that in mind I can keep using LK dp just as a combo ender.

Neutral jumps are one of the jumps that Y Zeku can blow up easily with shoulder.

If he’s looking out of course (I forget this a lot).

All the advancing lows in this game are pretty silly thanks to VTC.

Seems legit to me :smirk:

Amazing.

Yeah you’ll want to neutral jump on the idea/read that they are abusing the slide. Neutral jump is obviously not a good idea vs an aware Y.Zeku. Especially if he has super because shoulder, hozanto, super is one of the most damaging AA’s in the game.

Slides and dash/move forward low moves are silly before VTC, but more silly with VTC. Rog’s low double hitting TC got nerfed to minus 6 on block and lost turn on VTC because that shit was hella dumb on VTC before.

It’s just like against Kolin. Your only going to get away with neutral jumps a few times, so keep it until you need it.

I’m actually amazed people aren’t leaping all over my crappy Y Zeku. They are all afraid of AAs I don’t know how to use. :slight_smile:

Does Y. Zeku have an AA?
