Honest question: Do people actually want Necro in SFV? He wasn’t good in 3rd Strike and unless Capcom gives Necro a complete overhaul, I think he’ll suffer the same fate that’s happening to Alex.
Edit: Kinda wish Alex’s st. HP was an overhead like it was in 3S. Also I wish his cr. LK > cr. MK TC was back and super cancel-able at the very least.
Same for Q. People who wants him, Necro and Oro gonna be the biggest group of complainers known in the SF history. Some characters are strong by design (Akuma? Yun?), others aren’t and Capcom doesn’t seems to be interested in make the latter top 5 or such. I recall just Kuroda being a beast with Q, then PinoAB7 and Sugiyama with Necro,but Kuroda was in a league on his own. We all know how it’s gonna end, characters like Q and Necro are dead from start.
The flaw in your argument is that you’re assuming “because this character sucked in the previous game, he’ll be weak here, too, and nobody will play him.”
Bull
fucking
shit
Mika was terrible in Alpha 3 and won Capcom Cup in SFV.
It can work backwards, too, as I’m sure Makoto mains realized when she was ported into SSF4.
