The Rolento General Discussion Thread

So according to that video Rolento’s MP is like an amazing anti-air, which is definitely exciting after hearing about how finnicky anti airing in this game can be because of shallow jump arcs.

Must be. I can imagine the wire cutting through the neck and people twiching while being hanged.

Being a little more graphic could be an awesome fatality if there ever is a SF x MK.

hasnt his medium punches always been the best???

Yeah, but I heard that some people were having trouble anti-airing with other characters, so I’m just glad that Rolento still has that.

yeah if you watch the archive of the Gamesradar (Part 1| Part 2) stream at the end of Part 2 someone was playing Rolento and very consistently anti-airing with st.MP.

I have not watched the full archive however so I am only familiar with the Rolento play at the end of part 2 so if there’s anything interesting in the archive post shit and stuff.

Does he have his d+medium pogo from the air? And if so, is it the straight down version or the one with the hop afterward?

Oops, saw it mentioned in another post. Weird that I’ve never seen anyone use that move in vids.

his MP moves have always been the best to combo into in the alpha games

Rolento is going to get some love from FC soon will post here as soon as its ready. Hit and run still applies =)

how soon? patriots and allies need to know

Thats true. his recruits must know. :slight_smile:

I don’t know if this was known, but watching the Armshouse stream it looks like normals can beat out Rolento’s knives like Ibuki. Fuudo was playing king and literally doing nothing but using his knee launch and it beat the knife a few times.

Just a heads up, incoming Rolento is to strong crying. They have back dashes for a reason :eek:

this always has been the case. non energy projectiles gets negated by physical attacks in pretty much every capcom fighting game except maybe (u)mvc3.

you can jab rolentos knives away since alpha 2 and you can even jab captain americas shield away in msh.

Interesting bit of info there, never knew that. Fair enough I suppose

Was just gonna post that heh.

invincible ex patriot circle, invincible ex back roll, invincible wall jump and safe patriot circle?

rolento is looking pretty top tier so far.

rolento looks like he could be one of the best characters in the game easy. definitely looks like a game changer and a character to put on your team to help fight bad matchups.
somewhere, bas is drooling from the mouth.

He looks like a QCF version of M. Bison, maybe I’ll pair the two together for the ultimate safe team? Looks like he can long-distance zone decently with the knife throw. If cr. mk xx baton spin is always safe, that’s gonna be NASTY. Argh, its gonna be hard to decide who to use!

I FUCKING HATE HIT AND RUN CHARCATERS>:( my worst match ups ever
