How plausible is a S4.5 balance patch ? Especially if they plan to drop all characters at once like it’s rumoured.
first beta Ken was the strongest version of him

beta ken had a faster run and his air tatsu crossed up and ryu had Legit guardbreak setups lol i wish they didnt nerf that on him
Looking forward to seeing all of the upcoming Ranked accomplishments from my SRK brethren.

I hope we get it. I want to see more of the mid-low tiers get actual buffs rather than a bunch of quality of life. They still feel very flat in competitive stature.
I’d say S4.5 is like, 60% assured. We’ve always gotten one to retune things, maybe they plan to do it actually in the midseason this year so they can collect competitive circuit data to fine tune. That would make SO much more sense.

I better see a friggin wall of text of buffs for those low-mid tier characters, i actually wanna see falke cody,ed and alex make it to a top8 one day
Lore wise?
All I have to say is that if I read “basically she can be played the same as before” again,i’m throwing hands.
When’s full screen light fuha plus on block ?

Yeah lemme see Cody get like 10 unneeded buffs and become a monster.
I think the most realistic timeline is that the next patch makes Kage top 3. I do still believe he’s a bit better than people make out, but if he got just a couple of good solid buffs to his normals and midscreen oki, he’d be a fucking monster.
Quote me on that, evil shotos aren’t allowed to stay bad for long.

I think we need to give Perto a round of applause. Has repeatedly gone to say how much he hates the game yet he’s done more in one month in ranked than others done in three years here.

Kage needs no major buffs, Akuma just shits on him so he seems useless.
Ryus medium tatsu hit crouches and his corner light tatsuxxdp combo still worked. Gief could combo ex spd. Beta sfv was best sfv.
Lol. I’ve been having a lot of fun the last couple of weeks. Once PSN is out though, I can concentrate on the SRK community stuff.
That and I keep figuring stuff out in training mode and not writing it down. Need to change that too.

He also had cr.lp > st.mp as a combo in beta. More people had jab > mid combos. Cammy did too.
If they are going to make Cody more Final Fight in this game, then it’s only fair he gets his Infinite.
Makoto Karakusa has a shit range since forever, that’s why the Kara exists. Her V-Skill would be probably a party, SFIV Omega hinted that, considering her non-existent defensive tools she need something to make her movements more scarier.
With that in mind there’s no reason for an EX Karakusa or IA Axe Kicks, she don’t need them in V.
- no +3 oB normals/specials
- no armor shit
- no inv moves outside CA
Makoto don’t need easy mode stuff, the fun of using her is working around on her weaknesses. If she keeps part of her command normals it’s done, but probably they would remove something from her arsenal like they did on Ibuki (hopefully NOT the Fukiage or Oroshi).
We’re talking about nothing anyway, I will seriously thinking about Makoto only if she gets revealed, until then I’m a Zeku main.

Make his backthrow not have the force push him 3 squares away from the corner.
^Fucking this
People already forgot what happened to Evil Ryu in SF4, no way in hell Capcom will miss the opportunity to give to Ryu players the buffs they wanted,buffing Kage to the stratosphere.

I could actually get with that. Makes no sense that Ken is still on top of you when he does his backthrow.
The age of Kage will soon be upon us.
