Told everyone that walk speed doesn’t mean much of anything with the retarded dashes those characters have, but noooooooo, it’s different so it’s bad.

DAMN. Another Pro cracking to Bison’s pressure

I hope we get a Nash vs Bison GF

Julio channeling Lupe right now

[TINYANGRYCRAB]

Damn Julio’s Ken looking very strong

Imagine a Ken winning this tournament.

The “considered” bottom 3 characters (Gief, Ken, Laura) would be the most successful characters so far. lol.

I’ve been saying Rashid is the worst, NO ONE LISTENS TO ME.

YOU TAKE THAT BACK

It’s interesting to me that there have been no Karin’s in either Cannes or Winter Brawl. She feels like a really strong character

But she requires patience, virtue and experience. And it’s one thing we don’t have right now and that’s (a lot) experience.

Karin vs Chun might be my favorite MU just because it’s a chess game. While the rest of the games I play are I-Declare-War.

I go back and forth between Karin and R. Mika and it’s CLEAR mental difference.

Point being Karin and Chun will be those characters that show longevity once we get this game in our muscle memory.

That’s a good point. Another factor could be that (at least imo) those are the two most execution heavy characters. I know that isn’t saying much in a game pretty light on execution, but it could be a factor still

Oh it is for me at least. Clutching out her Just Frame links is still a problem. And I still get launchers by accident which is negative

Sometimes I ask myself why didn’t I pick a main that has 85% safe shit

Thats why you need to pick up Bison like I did, that way you can have the best of both worlds

This Nash vs Ken is hype af

[TINYANGRYCRAB]

Also I’m loving Julio’s super aggressive v-reversals - almost immediately converting that grey health into pure damage. Very cool!

[Trife88]

LI JOE is out

[Dime]

That Julio niggas a beast!

[DevilJin_01]

I’m mad as fuck CD Jr is using that Tastu tech… Thought I was the only one :sad:

CDjr is a lab rat and likes technical characters. He was gonna find out.

[Plaid_Unicorn]

LI JOE is out

Joe is in losers, he is still in it

[Shahenzan]

Tartarian at WNF
Julio here at Winter Brawl
I see these Kens getting a lot mileage out of v-reversal, building up hella white life and cashing out big

Ken looking good and v-reversal looking good out there.

[Surremies]

LI JOE is out

Not out. Just in loser’s.

[FengShuiEnergy]

I kinda wish white life cashs out properly in the life bar. Like they made combined the white life into the attack dmg. So like so you build up 100 white life. Now you land a jab that jab suddenly deals (visually) 130 dmg. So like when white life is taken it shows say…that red bar or an orange.

[DevilJin_01]

For his first venture in the SF world i think sonicfox did alright. I can see him with multiple characters like he did in mkx. And it’s funny this tournament has mostly the slow walk speed characters filling out the top 8,where u at chun players?

The slow walk speed characters tend to have good button conversion into damage when at closer ranges that Chun doesn’t necessarily have outside of V Trigger. Plus I think Lud was the only person there strong enough with Chun to get close to a top 8 any way.

[Zeniside]

Yep, nothing makes me go ‘oh shit’ like when a bison CCs me with st.rh and has CA stocked. I do not care as much when someone like Rashid does it.

Yeah i agree, its kinda hard to notice unless you’re actively paying attention to it

Chun didn’t even crack top 16. I’m glad to see my nigga Birdie make to top at least.

[javert]

I would have seen Moons win rather than LI Joe if only because I don’t want to see Nash getting bodied in 6 straight rounds. Let’s see if LI Joe can adjust because at the end of WF Julio had completely downloaded him.

[Hawkingbird]

Ken in grand finals. He’s definitely in a wheel chair alright.
