Soul Calibur 5 Official Discussion

Ohhhhhhh

not only slow…BUT WITH SHIT DAMAGE TOOOOO

Did she get the biggest butchering of that nerf hammer or what?

Characters that I hate so far

Hilde- Still obnoxious
Mitsu- Yet again someone who still plagues my Raphael
Natsu- relly strong really painful
Nightmare: Really REALLY Strong like it’s jaw dropping

Eh Ivy just got fat…lol

Alot got hit with the nerf hammer. I was kinda surprised. The game itself though is pretty balanced.

I think some characters needs some loving like Mitsu and Ezio

I find a lot of this post slightly confusing. To me it seems SC is one of the LAST games you would want to be mashing in. Everything is so horrible on block and can be sidestepped/ducked for even more pain. If you are having trouble with mashing it’s really not the games fault. A lot of players will frame trap you often which may be what you mean.

Don’t know too much about Hilde yet, but she does strike me as highly effective in the hands of someone with good defense.

Yoshi really got hit with the nerf hammer bad
hope they give him something in the future as this game will inevitably be patched
people seem to like playing against alpha pat online IDK why maybe its seems honorable
i have never got so much…likemail
I light them up with yoshi and nothing or its hate mail

and hildes good just the problem is that she should have charge partitioning because when you are charging you lose horizontal close range strikes or long range vertical
playing her in between those points at your own optimal range makes trouble for her and you might have to waste a charge to put yourself on all cylinders again defensively and/or offensively its a chore to make people wary of charges to impede their movement

I don’t mean literally mashing I guess i should clear that up

But simple AA/BB/Low/throw its very much effective on hilde as compared to the rest of the cast.

Against if you got good D she is amazing, but as of now she is more work that it’s worth imo. If you look back a page or so you’ll see that I posted that I think she’ll be top. But not currently…

There will always be exploits. Doesn’t change what I said though; and if you so happen to decide to beat the cpu with sliding around, which you won’t do vs real opponents, then you’ll actually learn and improve when against the Legendary Souls AI.

Global Coliseum son!

Heh, if you think Ivy got hit hard, try using Aeon. I seriously think he may be the worst character in this game, and maybe of any fighting game I’ve ever played. To give you an idea, I played Captain America and Chris in Vanilla MVC3, and I still think Aeon is the biggest pile of shit ever.
He was already ‘meh’ in SCIV, did he really need to get nerfed again that much?

On a side note, Algol is ridiculous. I’m surprised I don’t see more people playing him.

People are probably still busy trying to unlock him. :rofl:

they should just play online
i only did the story and just from playing online matches i got everything else

Algol’s CE makes everyone so salty.

I havn’t played SC since SC2. So I decide to main Hilde because I think she is interesting but I just can’t win. 90% of people I fight are GreatSwords (Seig and Night). Once they get close to me I just get raped. I know she can be good but her moves seem slow and easy to evade. Plus I have not seen a single Hilde player online lol.

I play Hilde. If any of you are on PSN and want a few matches then hit me up FlyMike45. The netcode is actually decent in this game so I dont mind getting on.

I will be adding you. Soon as I but the game.

100% agreeing with this, fuck SCV Ivy.

Its why im maining Tira, my old secondary…
I wanna pick up Viola down the road and maybe Zwei or asta but school has been kicking my ass so i barely have the time to do anything =\

Thankfully Tira isnt too different so i can go on what i know from old games…

i still suck fiercely at this game, but some aspects of it are starting to click for me. this game is sick.

So, playing as Nightmare, how the hell do I deal with fast teeny girls like Leixia & Natsu? & if the answer is keeping them away, what are my get the fuck off me moves?

pyrrah is broken.

Someone got beat by Pyrrha. Salty.
