I approve of Hulk Rape.
Have you ever stopped to consider how difficult it is going to be to balance Hsien-Ko? It’s not that her charecter herself couldn’t be great in MvC, she really could. Teleport, mixups, ability to reflect projectiles, able to get infinitie hyper armor and in Vampior Savior form great if unconventional mobility.
The trouble for Capcom is, as I see it, making a charecter that would be strong on point as well as having an assist as strong as hers. If Hsien-Ko was viable on point, the ability to setup that assist and keep it would be far easier, and if she can provide strong mixups and ability to shutdown keepaway what reason do you have to not put her on your team? With Sent there was his natural weakness to mixups, but Hsien-Ko doesn’t have a large outstanding weakness (assuming she would be buffed up to her Vampire Savior glory) that is so easily exploited by the entire cast. Even Phoenix has to worry about mixups coming in and chip damage leading to her death by any team to varying degrees.
It’s an odd thing. Either they remove her ability to assist with hyper armor, or they simply make her a better but still not outstanding point character. I’m really not sure which I would prefer.
Yes, I have, and I would take better point play over her Golden assist any day. In the long run, better point play will get a character farther, I think. And having assist characters is, generally, more boring. I believe Seth even said at some point in the past that they were trying to avoid Assist Character Syndrome, but don’t quote me on that. Just have it so that it runs out while she’s out or something.
Hahaha he didn’t actually say Phoenix and Hsien-Ko, he just said something like how he’s either going to be really good or really bad. So yeah, probably gimmick character.
Power-up every time he points his finger and shouts “Objection”? That’s the only gimmicky thing I can think of for a guy like him…
Damn I never thought id see myself approving of rape.
Lei-Lei’s hardly a gimmick character yet she’s still shit tier. I can’t believe the developers actually thought she was going to be a viable character by giving her all those shitty tools (assists included). And i doubt she was created to be played by casuals considering how unpopular and shitty looking she is. God bless. Gimme Bulleta next time please.
Hsien-ko’s gold armor assist is not that good. She generally takes more red life damage than say, Haggar because of the amount of damage she takes from opponents before she reaches a hitting state. Watch P Gorath just absolutely annihilate Hsien-Ko armor assist with Viewtiful Joe’s Six Cannon.
Also any combos off her Senpu Bu assist are INCREDIBLY scaled. Like really badly in the direction of both damage and hitstun. The assist has already been balanced, now bring the character up to speed.
I played her as many times as I could in UMvC3 and I really couldn’t see much of a difference at all in her playstyle. At least increase her damage output is what I say if you’re going to keep her that slow.
Hsien-Ko doesn’t even belong in this game. In my mind, she took Jedah’s spot. Dark Stalkers has a great cast probably the best out of any fighting game series. ANY other character from that series would have been better. /Salty I didn’t get Jedah.
The thing I don’t get about Hsien-Ko is that she should be a good character, but for some reason they decided to not give her moves the properties they need to make her a decent character. You’d think that wouldn’t be that hard to fix.
I would have no problems with Hsien-ko being removed and Jedah taking her spot.
Except I will miss her intro pose where she falls on her ass and objects fall all over the place.
But that’d be all I miss about her.
Not to mention that it costs one bar to set up. And a DHC into it followed by a safe-tag out unless you’re willing to spend three meter for it.
As for her being too powerful if she were brought up to VSav levels, she would still have a weak defensive game. Low health (not as important in the Marvel series, but still a factor) and no reliable anti-airs.
And man, I forgot about all of the Hsien-Ko hate. It’s like pre-release all over again. I’d sling insults about characters I didn’t like ahemViper around, but that would be getting us nowhere.
Ugh, it’s stuff like that that gives the impression she was just included for fanservice. Shows how seriously the team probably takes her.
I’d miss her theme, but that was about the only positive thing she brings to the table imo.
They should have saved her for Ultimate. That way people wouldn’t be able to say that there were no girls. And she’s kinda weird colored, she’s probably some kind of minority right?
She’s… a blue chinese stiff corpse/zombie/ghost/vampire girl thing.
she is the chaosu of mahvel :bluu:
But is she bisexual??? this is very important guys
But then people would whine about her getting in over x character and–
Well, you know the drill. MIght as well slip her in alongside Sentinel so that the salt over the big robot overshadows the dead girl that nobody likes and will cause a thousand “Where is Talbain?” complaints.
agreed 100% Bulleta is the superior character by far.
And I agree with this even more. Jedah was my main.
Totally untrue. [details=Spoiler]Of course I know you are exaggerating[/details]
BTW, she is a jiang shi right? So (chinese) vampire ghost…
