Vega General Thread: The Masked Narcissist Enters The Tournament

Seems to be the case so far. Command grab when he has no claw, and new frame data ala Omega. Seems a bit like how Torrent of Power will give Necalli new combos because of new frame data. Almost like he has 2 v-triggers. The rose, and the rush down no claw style.

With target combos, V-Skill cancels/links (see the first combo in the trailer), and a new cr.LP that hits low, Vega finally has a meterless empty-jump combo.

You guys think with Claw not able to be picked up, V-reversal will be really important?

I wonder fast the command throw will be. Only EX Izuna Drop was shown.

IT’S HAPPENED!!! FINALLY!
My heart is rushing!

How does vega lose his claw in sf4 again? Is it random or after a certain amount of health is lost?

What about that second move in the trailer ? Crouching Medium or Heavy Punch ?

Edit : I think that’s Crouch Fierce because of Necalli’s animation but I’m not sure.

He can throw it and I guess he will lose it when he takes a certain amount of damage.

If you block too much with it, it’ll just fly off.

Did anyone notice how he loses his claw mid combo in his very first combo??? It just dissapears off of his hand when he does that…pirrouette move. The fuck? Either way, I’m riding the hype train. He looks godly.

That’s probably his ‘sheathing’ move that’s been mentioned. Interesting that it also works as a combo extension sort of move, but that’s stance characters for you.

Ah, so you can do that mid-combo. In that case, block 9 times, sheath mid combo, unsheath, unleash hell.

It might not be safe to use on block, which would be the disadvantage of it, but we’ll just have to wait and see.

he can sheathe it at will, looks like the pirouette is a way (or maybe, the way) and it should be the v-skill as well

Now waiting for someone to hack SFIV one last time so that Dudley actually throws Rose when he throws a rose.
Thx.

VEGA!! You are HERE!!!
Dreams do happen! Thank you Capcom!!

I’m still hoping for him to get some more character development in SFV. I don’t want him to just become more psycho and all that. Hell, they should reveal his backstory here.

It seems he can use his v trigger multiple times unless there is some strange editing going on, also he can do it in the air…first character that can v trigger in the air no?

Capcom did a great job with the graphics. He looks great.

ok i got it

flying barcelona attack WITH claw = knockdown on hit
flying barcelona attack WITHOUT claw = no knockdown, allowing for combos on hit

seems cool…

I don’t play him but I’m very glad he made it in, what an awesome character! Maybe I’ll give him a spin in SFV. I actually quite like the shirt, the outfit basically shouts regal and it’s a brilliant fit for Vega.
