The Street Calibur 5 Lounge: The Soul Burns But not as Hard as the FGC is Burning

I literally bought VF5:FS on XBL a week in half ago after I found it was backward compatible with XB1.

Speaking of Gouken i remember specifically that in SF 4 Vanilla when he did tatsu he actually said ā€œtatsumaki blahesdhkjhfrjksdhfjksā€ but in AE and USF4 he didn’t say it anymore,they changed the sound file, i wonder why they changed it.

Sounded cooler in vanilla.

He 100% says Tatsumaki Gourasen in later SF4 games.

I know I ain’t crazy.

This game needs more actual counters, for sure. Landing Kolin’s ā€œON YOUR KNEESā€ is one of the best feelings in the game. I just wish I could play neutral with her.

He may say it but it sounds different, i am 100% sure he has another sound file in vanilla SF4

You know what? That’s fair. Abare would ridiculous with what I said.

Had to look up what she got in Omega mode. Apparently she had an armor breaking headbutt that could be reused.

And yeah. Makoto would be sweet but after the tarot card thing, I’m not going to hope for her.

Spam her hp, that button is just dumb and when in doubt random vskill 1.

Neutral with Kolin achieved.

It was Tatsumaki Gou Rasen (Whirldwind Strong Spiral)…I think. I also picked up Kolin because of the counter BTW.

Didn’t find out about that until after I started bopping people with Frost Touch.

I actually consider Kolin the coolest ( no pun intended ) new female character added in SFV in terms of gameplay. I would not mind if she returns in SF6. Not to keen on her control scheme but a nice character overall.

Not as ugly as most say but definitely not a looker.She ok.

Can’t get disappointed if its 100% gonna happen :smiley:

I was a Kolin main for years. Never managed to get to her face. Hell, getting above her waist line was damn near impossible :wink:

SF6 needs a stance swap for sure.It’s one feature from MK that i really want in SF. Like Gill has depending on what side he uses.

I remember really liking Kolin when she first came out, because of the counters and the freezing effect of her VT1 made her feel like a heavy control and punish character. But when season 3 hit, it seemed like they nerfed some of her pokes but buffed her unga-bunga, especially with the addition of her VT2. Felt like they designed the character away from my tastes, even if they did end up making her better.

Maybe I’ll try her again a bit. I recall they buffed VT1 a bit in the last patch.

I don’t know a single Kolin that picks VT 1 over 2 anymore.

VT 1 could be an option if they nerf VT 2 to be 3 bars, but even then i think VT 2 would be the way to go.It just completely changes the character into SFV bullshit mode.

I like VT1 versus Gief.

Juri’s V-SKILL 2 really helped me vs Gief.

That thing is annoying for him because it lingers on screen just enough for Juri to get her spacing and gain stores.If only it were + on block.

Yeah and I think that’s exactly why I dropped her. I couldn’t justify not using VT1 and playing like a maniac for any reason other that wasn’t how I wanted to play.

Stomping the ground and creating a shockwave of icicles looks so much more badass too :frowning:

I respect that.

At it’s core a game should be all about fun. And if we are not tournament players then the most important thing is to have fun when we play a video game.

With all her flaws, i still have most fun with Juri even if underpowered,so that’s why i play her.
