I’m rather looking forward to her V-Skill. Depending on how fast it is, it could theoretically completely shut down the rather prevalent game style of ‘just pressing buttons’ when up close. Worst case scenario it will be something like DOA but if done well it might be a nice counter (pun intended) to what I personally consider the most dull aspect of SFV right now.

Quite a lot of contestants we have
This without a question. I don’t know if Mykka is German or if it’s just a happy coincidence but depending on what rink you’re referring to it’s called ‘Eisbahn’ in German. Which makes it even better.
…or maybe I’m just pointing out the obvious and everyone knew already.
You’d think Eisbahn meaning Ice Rink would common knowledge at this point. However, we still have people guessing returning characters for season 2. So I shouldn’t be surprised. Despite all the shit posting, SRK is quite informative. I think a lot people just don’t pay attention.
I’m shamelessly plugging myself…
However I would be fine if it’s just the character threads sub title… right now I’m trying to think of something for the video thread… spreaking of which…
Can we not let her character thread turn into the disaster that is most character threads on this site?
Video threads only for high level video and comments for said video, not the tell me what I’m doing wrong thread? I believe the Bison thread is the standard we should strive for going forward tbh.
Well I knew it since I speak German as well but I suppose the mystery has been solved a long time ago already. Sorry for being a couple of months late to the party.
I didn’t mean to come off as insulting. I think I have PTSD* thanks to @LordWilliam1234 repeatedly bringing up Eisbahn as new character when I’d been saying it means Ice Rink from day one. Although apparently Capcom does have a character named Eisbahn in a mobile game.

I’m not sure neutral defense should be consi
Kolin: Warm hands, cold heart Critical Art
CA full animation ( 
)
Listen I’m just glad it’s an actual cinematic instead of the weak shit we got with Juri/Urien/Akuma.
Yeah, but they should’ve been more creative. The ice stuff would allow them to make astonishing animations with particles, snow flakes and whatever.
I like the CA. Juri’s CA was the biggest disappointment I got in SFV.
Thread names? The general thread got the best, but I like Plaid’s suggestion.
“Ice what you did there” is good for the video thread though.
Ice is too cliche. Need other cold words from the thesaurus
I’ll throw a lame entry into our little thread title competition.
“It’s Hell in here, why don’t you Kolin the Illuminati”
Kolin thread: Calling her Helen will net you the cold shoulder.
I like her CA I just wish the KO sound came before, when the ice tower emerges. Then after the KO we would hear the ice shatter and Urien tumbling down
From what I noticed in the trailer, it works like this. Urien only dropped after the KO flash.
In fact, the KO screen made the CA freeze.
No the KO only appears after the ice is shattered, not before.
I want this stage Capcom, make it happen
I feel like all the newbies should get their own stage playable like Rashid. Gives them more identity
Cool new stages are nice until you hop online. I really wish I could set Temple of Ascension for my matches, but if I’m ice skating to Rollback City everytime, I’d rather stick to the grid.
Hopefully, this stage will be simple enough to replace it.
I’m curious about Kolin’s Iceball though.
Only one variation was shown in the trailer, right? Is it good for space control or not?
