As far as the just guar it is very specific… It is not easy. You have to just tap guard and release at the right time. If you get it it’s a free hit depending on frame of the move you use of course. Aa bb after the just guard worked with zwei. They can’t block.
Is there seriously 3 different characters that just use a random playstyle? What about Kilik?
Elysium chooses a random female’s style at the beginning of every round, Kilik chooses a random male’s style at the beginning of every round, Edgemaster is random all. Xiba is a clone of Kilik’s old style.
I want Omega Pyrrha’s mixup and zoning info mostly, her new moves separate from Sophie/Cass seem interesting.
But yeah, no one whined about Raphael/Amy, Rock/Astaroth, Ling/Maxi, Nightmare/Sigfried, Cass/Sophie/Generic Lizardman, ORLY, Night Terror being unplayable, I don’t see why its a problem now when there’s LESS clones.
Nice seeing you at Big 2.
First set of DLC
Sensei is talking about why are you going to make Alpha Patrol or whatever his name is, use Setsuka’s moveset when you can just add in Setsuka? He’s not questioning clones. Why not just give Alpha Patrol some altered move sets of his original? Why the hell would he even fight like Setsuka?
Also, why the fuck even bring Kilik back just to use him as a random char? For the fans? That’s like the biggest troll. 3 slots wasted for random select? Why not just make Elysium be a new char?
Ill have to see what these look like before I would buy them. I’ll be honest though I thought the link would be characters. Nice find though.
I’m with you on that Kilik and Elysium as mimics. Edge Master can do what they can do combined. This is the only time that I can honestly say that a character can be a waste of a slot.
Edit: Actually I did mean that, but I did mention that in a previous post (or at least I was thinking it) that it made less since for those two take the moves of previous characters rather than just putting those characters in.
It’s not a wasted slot because there would be no character there if they weren’t. As usual the developers are being rushed along and there is little they can do about it. If they are working on Talim/Bangoo/Zas/Yun they will probably be DLC anyway.

What are Viola’s low orb attacks?
Thanks.
I’ve heard that Xiba is more intriguing as far as rush down. He has new stances and some stuff that Kilik didn’t have. An interesting new take on an old character. Not a clone in the purest sense of the word at least.
Its obvious why Pat is using Setsuka. Because the Soul Calibur realized that its the best moveset it has encountered, or is the one to counter Soph-Edge.
There’s always an explanation.
People get the word “clone” twisted.
CLONES were what you had in Tekken 1 & 2, Soul Calibur 1 and Battle Arena Toshi where characters had nearly identical movesets.
REPLACEMENTS are what you had from Tekken 3 onwards, Street Fighter Alpha onwards and Soul Calibur 2 onwards.
- characters had different throws & “signature moves”
-characters retained some “signature moves” of the character they “replaced”
-new moves
-slightly different animations for similar moves ie: Guile’s flash kick vs Remy’s flash kick
SWAPS are just skins ie Xiaoyu and Miharu, Eddy Gordo and Tiger Jackson, Jun Kazama and Unknown…etc
MIMICS are random select skins as opposed to picking random select and getting a character ie: Combot, Mokujin, Edgemaster, Charade, Olcadan…etc
Fuck it, I’m getting this on jump (if I can spare money from my psv and general funds). I spent some time with sc4 on psp yesterday…and damn if I didn’t realize I love this series (psp version fixed a lot of what was wrong with 4, including lame guest characters and move properties). I only wish they found some way to bring back the previous game’s outfits, either through customization, or just giving us the old costumes from 2-3 as extra outfits instead of just 2 default costumes. Kilik’s long, torn red shirt from sc2 was the shit.
I am so getting Soul Blade music DLC.
Future Dancin’! Brave Folk Song! Gears of Madness! :rock:
Omega Pyrrha actually looks kinda cool.
After watching Omega Pyrrha’s CE, I’m sold on using her as a main.
But what I am most excited about is the old music being included, especially the tracks from Soul Blade. Tuesday needs to get here quick.
Ok sorry guys. I messed with the mechanics more then anything and I was keeping people updated through twitter mostly. I like the pace of the game overall. Smooth. The just defend where you press guard is strict. You have to press an release not press and hold. So if your time is off your going to get hit cause you have to release guards. You can just guard unblockables pretty sure. You’ll see a blue flash and be able to attack aa bb works depending on distance. Gi into super worked with almost everyone and side step dash move thingy super is glorious. The gi is half a bar and does high mid low attacks. No guess how they are going to swing just guessing when. I’m at work ill do ivy and viola write up when I’m home.
And yes I want to compete in this.
Pyrrah O is one of the characters I want to get a hands on with since she incorporates more of Soph/Cassandra I believe? Cass was my main in 3/4 so I’m looking at her, but ofc I’m always up for experimenting with the other characters. Especially the new ones.
