When I saw Laura V-Skill dash I’ve immediately thought of Abel step kick, but definitely they aren’t the same thing, that was expected. Again, even if Abel was included instead of Laura probably even some of his moves would have been changed to be adapted on SFV. I don’t remember how plus Laura is after a normal on hit + VS, sure thing I don’t press shit when that happens, I prefer to take the throw. On block it’s a different story.
The only thing Laura has in common with Makoto is the crazy stun/damage once they are in, but the first is a grappler the latter isn’t. They share the command grab treat, but Karakusa is simply the most dangerous command grab in SF history.
Absolutely, looking at his success ratio with that gdlk normal nobody is bold enough to contest that shit even being at -4 oB. Knowing how much damage Karin can deliver from that hitconfirm the better thing to do is stay away from her asap. Isn’t that hard to use for a Karin player, but nobody can confirm cr.mk like Punk, that kid is amazing.
Yeah no contest. The only new male from SFIV or V that has a shot of returning in 6 is maybe Zeku. As a character he’s done really well. Rashid I’m sure has people that like him, but even he’s iffy.
I’m down for giving newcomers a chance to return but tbh i don’t see ED or Falke returning unless Capcom really wants to integrate the Neo Shadaloo further in the story.
For similar reasons I don’t believe I will play Makoto in V, ain’t gonna happen without a SFV Sagat/Sakura kind of treatment. @BornWinner knows, as it is Makoto would be a shark inside a pool full of bleeding preys.
