Screw that, I’m keeping my Balrog headbutt damage and Adon stupidly good wake-up 
I’m sure the Guile and Sim players are crying tears of joy right now.
I surely hope I’ll be able to sort the matchmaking so I don’t have to fight chocolate players, because there’s no way in hell I’m going back to that game.
And if that isn’t the case, fuck this game.
So I can get the new upper mid, lower high tier DJ, but I fuck my Rose over forever and still get raped by the twins?
This game is looking more and more garbage by the minute and I’m really dissapointed by that.
I’m pretty sure you’ll be able to choose which version you’re fighting against. And I wouldn’t be surprised if all Ranked matches were AE rules.
yeah, it would suck if i wanted to take my newly buffed gen out for some ranked matches only to get dragged into playing console gen
speaking of gen, i dont think hes going to be ultra bottom gutter tier any more. hes getting some damage and meter gain help with the addition of his target combos.
unfortunately he will still have a glass jaw, and get destroyed by rushdown characters if he ends up on his back
he will still be low, just maybe not very bottom
Gen has one thing going for him (at least playing online) in that no one freaking knows the matchup.
For my C to Shining C fun, it only took me about 27 matches to get to 1000 BP with Gen. That was the shortest amount of time next to Dudley.
No one knows how to fight the guy, that Crane crossup j.MK is some tricky stuff.
People are too worried about yun when the real problem in AE is going to be Feilong. Who is supposed to beat fei in AE now that charge characters are weaker and mostly destroyed by twins/akuma? At least yun and yang will have hard matchups even if they steamroll low characters.
guile, rog, bison, and chun will still be tough as ever. the nerfs they got dont really effect the fei matchup enough for them to suddenly lose
gg for the ryu matchup tho. solid 7-3 without a corner escape. other than that, i cant think of anyone who gets crushed by him outside of the characters who lose all their matches anyway
as i said before, as long as yun has more dominating winning matchups, he will get more hate
Why sorry about a chara,ter thT relies more on solid tools and has to T leaxt work to get in as oppose to
fuck gou ill dive kick in or push this button here to get in.
I’ve read this a few times already and still don’t understand what it exactly means…
Does this mean I might encounter chocolate Hondas and Cammys even if I download the AE DLC?
What???
this
Somebody call Indiana Jones, we got some secret language that needs deciphering.
Why worry about a character that has to work to get in and just cant dive kick in with a button that screams fuck you trololololo. fu,kin touch keyboards so akward to use.
why asj indiana jones when you can just ask babel fish (>_<)
Hmmm, not sure why people think feilong has trouble getting in. Yeah he doesn´t have it free against some characters but rekkas are very very good and one combo into rekka it´s almost corner (aka good luck). There are characters who has to work harder for less reward than him.
Imo rekkas wallcarry should have been nerfed in AE, he will still be a beast but he has it too easy right now between just walking forward + rekkas.
PD: Fei-Bison is 5-5
Depends the Bison. If he’s a walking back turtle style type, the match leans in Bisons favour. There’s nothing Fei Long can do apart from run after him. Believe me, I play a Bison like this and it shits me to tears.
yeah, theres characters who work harder for less reward. my secondary gen for example. dosent make all fei’s matchups in his favor tho. he still has mostly 5-5s. “too easy” would imply that he dosent have a weakness or that he has mostly heavily favored matchups
his rekkas pushed people to the corner the same way in vanilla. didnt stop him from being low mid tier there. dont see what that matters. the main issue is damage. gets a lot of explosive damage for one or two good guesses
Fei’s design is great as a character IMO. Just the right amount of “guessing” and the right amount of “solidness” as people here would put it. I agree with Mike on the damage aspect being the biggest issue in terms of balancing the character with the rest of the roster. It’s a tad disproportionate at this point. If we balance his moves as such:
cl.MP= 60 [from 70]
HK CW= 100 [from 140]
cl.HP= 85 [from 100]
MK DP= 125 [from 140]
HP/MP/LP rekka= 150/140/130 (scaled) [from 168/158/148]
That takes his infamous “cl.MP xx HK CW death combo” on those select characters down to 376 with FADC> CW thrown in (+ MAX Ultra would hit 424). That also drops his DP> Ultra juggle down to 345 damage max, DP> FADC> CW becomes 225, regular meterless punish drops as well. Could anyone call him S material with that? A or B+ at best I’d figure.
a lot of vanilla ryu players thought his design was perfect too. he also went 5-5 with just about everyone.
i bitched about him equally. i think fei is in that same sweet spot. just that there is no vanilla sagat that stands out above him. maybe e.ryu, oni, and yun will move up
ive said before damage nerfs would be fair. i also think it would be fair if he couldnt combo from any of the regular CW’s. make him spend meter for his biggest damage.
