I like games with strong Sagats even though I don’t play Sagats. I’m digging the strength of charge characters in this era though, it’s very reminiscent of some of the good ol’ days of SF2. Though, I’m not used to SF games with strong Bisons so this has all been quite a lovely experience on the competitive side of things to say the least. Hope it stays this way more or less.
SF5 is definitely short on Rose. I find it surprising that she is still not in. Chun-Li, Cammy, and Rose are like the holy trinity of female fighters. They should always have a home in SF.
Guys, guys, I got it… Gouken’s v-skill should be his “Here comes the hurt” back throw.
It was always annoying as f* when you “option selected” block and throw or throw tech but ate the opponent’s throw tech to low shorts because the back throw starts up 2 frames slower than everything else.
If he does make it in , i expect Capcom to try and implement his power of nothingness into his kit.
It’s going to be some sort of defensive skill i think,since he uses it to block Akuma’s demon.
Maybe some sort of super armor self buff he puts on himself or something that negates certain types of attacks, who knows really. The potential is huge.
I can see his backthrow returning,that thing was so hilarious to pull on people and tbh i just loved how backthrow into j mp cancel into tatsu looked.
The old man’s sweep was godlike,i really doubt they would keep it as good as it was.
And you do have a fair point about his parry v-skill, it could be like Akuma’s but with different followups.All are shotos but with their own different touch.
Even though i really did not consider Gouken to be a true shoto, he was his own thing.
It’s not like having his old sweep would matter in V, if you don’t have a fast dash to secure oki they’re just going to backrise and reset. In IV he got safe jumps, in V he’d just get a neutral scramble.
I have a gaming laptop. It’s a lot easier to take with me when I travel than my PS4. Plus it doesn’t require a TV. Also I think I have ADHD. So I’ll play on my laptop while watching TV when I’m not traveling. Comes in handy on Sundays during football season.
The costumes are only available in the Fighting Chance mode. It’s a lootbox scam to get you to drain your FM (which could’ve been substituted for guaranteed items they actually charge real money for), so you’ll eventually only have the option to pay real money to get certain things you want.
At the time being, you can’t purchase any of the outfits that were exclusive to that mode. So no OG Bison for sale, which is why it’s wack as fuck imo.
