SFxT General Discussion #3 - Still Alive

From the wording it just seems that alpha countered targets will no longer be hittable. Technically you may still tag cancel to be safe but there’s just no more follow up damage.

They may have done that to differentiate it from EX-move or DP switch cancel. It’s kind of a weird choice but 99% (I think) of AC’s punt the opponent far screen and it’s a hard knockdown timing.

I like how all the people speak about rerolling… how about “Stick to your character?” : X

I think the alpha counter change is good. No more losing a match because you were attacking.

I see it as a good opportunity to try something new.
I’m not dropping Alisa though, and people say you can’t ever leave Juri, so I guess I’m stuck…

Not dropping any characters, just adding more. The cast overall looks more fun to play.

ummmm Cammy isnt the best character in that game.

Tatsu and Alex may not agree… but Vega is gonna run a train all over the entire SF cast now. Gief and Abel will probably be the hardest matchups.

There are 3-4 contenders for that, and Cammy is one of them.
And Cammy was stupidly good since super, just not used back then and still top 10 character in AE.
All the other changes did help, but she did not need much in the first place

Sorry man, but I don’t agree with you. They really nailed him.

Feel free to share your discoveries when you get there…:rolleyes:

Been playing Lars since he was released and I spit up my coffee when I read this change:

This $hit right here, just got real. They addressed my one gripe with Lars - that you could db his normal avalanche kicks all day.

No more crawling into the corner bishes… Lars is coming to get you!

I was considering using Lars for a while now…I’m definitely going to be using him in 2013.

Now I just got to wait for Microsoft to approve the (bleep)-ing PC patch so I can start training with him…

All we need is for it to be safe at the right distance and Lars will sky rocket!

real men mained him in ST

I’m up for a couple games

well i am sticking to 2 of the 3… I’ll try Hugo but i dunno man. Matches are already a huge uphill battle with him

I still think she’s #5 but i get your point. I just think that those other 3-4 contenders have a better shot at the #1 spot than her

I think he’s going to have a bit of a hard time against the tekken cast. But he’s going to pretty much own the SF Cast.

see ya in 2014… if it even happens

Wait a second, rolls are gonna be vulnerable now a la KoF? Even after we found so much tech against them already? Might as well call this game hardkdxoki. It cannot be that bad, right? Or else anyone with a half decent backdash can react to a roll and get a free punish.

I don’t mean to rain on parades here, but Ava Spike is the followup to a Avalanche Kick feint. The normal one is still a normal hit…however, because of the nerf to rolls, Lars will have a pretty awesome OS with Avalanche Kick, since it travels far and allows for full combos on hit. I do agree though, you now cannot run from Lars.

Yeah because you wouldn’t make use of that 3f low I’m sure. That makes you a scrub if you go by the proper definition.

Man you guys always changing tiers :confused: play who u want. Just 2 days ago u said cammy wasnt top tier

but Hugo sucks now!

We should encourage Namco in making their own Tekken 2D game tho with Free DLC and all the good stuff they offer :slight_smile:
