SSF4 AE Vega Changes

Jozhear: YAY for taking things out of context.

:slight_smile:

But no seriously you are smarter then that. I expect better from you in the future ok?

You’re not taking into account that Vega has faster jumping speed than Guile. Also, the range difference is only 0.05 (with Vega being 1.2, and Guile being 1.25).

cat-k placed 3rd in the godsgarden ssf4 tournament,nao placed 7th.cat-k beat tokido in the casuals before the tournament.are you even keeping up?

lol I do remember this.

Also, the back dash nerfs had me wincing when I read them.

At the end of the day I’ll gladly take damage nerf to FBA if Izuna drop is easier to land.

also…regarding ST…nice to think that we’ll have wake up options…even though adding i-frames seems like the easy way out. I’ve always been a fan of the idea of making his backflips really good, i.e., useful lol.

Vega coming 3rd once is great. 7th place and winning casual matches are good examples? Ok then.

Good news is if Vega is perfect for you then ex.st will make him overpowered. More power to you!

But I’m afraid to wield such power.

um… guy has the 2 best air grab in the game… lol

i’m mixed on the wakeup deal. if they keep the same damage and give him a few i frames on ex ST he’d be close to perfect IMO

U1 doesnt need to track… time it right.

personally i’d rather have more frame advantage than iframes. that would make him perfect

yes more frame advantage!
u1 tracking won’t hurt tho…

Well whether or not he does, my point was that he has just about every tool other than a fireball but who needs one when you’ve got such a sexy walkspeed :stuck_out_tongue:

And yes his airgrab is great. I’d almost argue it’s sorta broken the way i throw people with their ass ontop of my head xD

that is correct,he placed high in the first major tournament that took place in japan for ssf4.

also,as i said earlier i couldnt care less if ex st was thrown in as an extra option,but at the cost of a weakened back dash?that is a truly terrible trade-off,almost all of vega’s backdash cosmicheel/kara throw setups for whiff punishing your opponent’s normals are going to take a dip(which is incidentally 60% of what vega’s ground game is all about).so imo,removing his great backdash for his i frames exst is only going to make him more weaker on the whole.

BHC should track if you at least hit with the first part, because it is hard enough to hit with as it is and it is a much worse ultra than SC is right now. If they made BHC a QCF motion ultra, then BHC would be perfect and I would be perfectly fine with the nerfs.

If they changed the motion for Bison’s Ultra, they could surely do it for one of Vega’s…

I agree completely. Seriously, couldn’t have said it better myself.

what i want for vega is what he had in hd remix. i want to be able to cancel my barcelona in mid air with a kick buttom and come straight down being safe. i want st to be a great AA and ill be happy. i dont feel that putting inv frames on st will make him overpowered but will help with free jump ins and easy rush downs.

vega is already good the way it is now. If u can’t handle the stuff he already have it means it’s not the right character for you.

Hey you guys i just started playing fighters and i’m kinda curious as to how Vega played in the older fighters.(cvs, cvs2, sf2, a3) and anything else i may have left off

did i say he wasnt good? pay attention when you read bra. AND he really isnt that great. no goog AA besides the ultra that you might only get to use ONCE. and i said that these are the things that I would want. and him being and to cancel his barcelona right off the wall isnt anything special it was just used to bait people.

i dont have too many problems landin it. i actually have more problems with SC

Why does everybody always come off so salty in these threads? Dudes act like everybody on this board isnt a grown man or woman who can freely express their opinions.

wtf mangojoe! i’m allowed to be salty if i want!
