SFV Lounge: Menat BUFFED, F2P SFV coming, CCCC COMBO BREAKERS coming

A bit unbalanced there. St mk being 8 frames would make it the same as sakura’s and one less than kage’s. Make’s no sense considering it significantly outranges these character’s st mk. Cr mk being 8 frame is also too much considering it’s range and ability to also cancel.
Lastly lowering st hk hitbox so that it hits crouchers would kill it as an anti air.

That was the point

I want everyone to have nice things

With all of those changes he’d still lose to Rashid anyway

Doods you’re forgetting the most important change: guard crush moves lose all scaling so full VT2 into super is a thing. Also benefits Ryu.

ChrisT won’t longer be safe against Bonchan.

He’d lose to rashid and dumpster 70% of the cast lmao.

Mine is command grabbing the opponent and combo the fuck out of his soul right after :rofl:

aiight i gotta go to training mode with birdie VT2

That would just leave everyone at the same place. Or if you give everyone less stubby normals and faster startup you’d be able to crush counter sagat sooner or whiff punish would be easier.

…he tried to CA Rashid’s VT1 activate…if this was sF4 it would have worked :^)
and he still won BIRDIE SENPAAAAAAAAAAAAAI

Played some Sakura again and managed to rack up quite a few wins. Looked at the change list afterwards and noticed that I didn’t really abuse any new stuff with the exception of subconsciously benefitting from the Hadouken buffs.

One thing I did change though was picking Trigger 1 over Trigger 2. I don’t think it’s necessarily better but that way I didn’t risk going for YOLO Trigger 2 Tatsus too often and that alone made a huge difference. Her Trigger 1 palm strike is a bit weird but a strong pressure tool at least, particularly in the corner. I think I got it up to +8 on block or something crazy as a meaty.

Magnegro’s Birdie is too good.

Fuck Rashid also

Ah, had no idea Blazer was in the tourney. Ran some long-sets with him back in Nov. Great Bison.

Nigel’s also really good.

Did Rog get buffed or nerfed more this last update?

The problem with the tiger knees isn’t the active so much as the giant hurt box in front. I’d rather they started up faster.

I think st.mk to 8 would be great to have, but a total nightmare to play against.

I was just thinking in terms of making it easier to get them to be + on block, particularly the light version

But a smaller hurtbox sounds nice too

That Vega article is right on the money, going over some of the exact shit i been complaining about. Kinda hilarious that its 17 pages, but that’s kind of necessary since most non-Vega players have no idea what they are talking about when they discuss him.

Gonna be great watching it get no attention and seeing Vega new EX Roll getting clapped in 4.5

All of them changes and plus on block knees. He’s prob broken.

I think he’s just a few tweaks away from being picked up by a pro. He’s very close now.

I still want Menat’s VTI to be 2 bars again so I like broken things :3

Broken things are fun

Japan doesn’t give a shit about pro Smash. Smash is an American game like Mahvel.
