That floe video was eye opening
Every Vega I’ve seen on Max’s channel have been trash, yet he hypes them up endlessly. Floe’s Vega was very fun to watch, he actually goes into the crazy mixups from Switch Claw, really getting into his opponents heads.
This Vega is a beast but i dont see them nerfing him more than they have, I actually think he needs more buffs, particularly I think EXFBA needs more damage or something to make it slightly better than EXCT.
max wants vega to be nerfed into the ground, lol. he hates that character
I’d like them to give it a better hitbox when he leaves the ground, you have to be quite close for it to connect.
For example, in Claw mode, if you do the combo “st MP > st LP > EXFBA”, the EXFBA can sometimes whiff.
Added range is a great idea. That may actually already be the philosophy behind EXFBA vs EXCT. Seeing as both moves used as enders are pretty much interchangeable minus the godly CT wall carry, EXFBA has applications for VTrigger setup and combo potential from uncommon launchers like anti-air h.ASE and very few situations where CT/EXCT wont link.
He played some very boring Vega’s. My Vega was better than the Vega’s he played.
As someone who loves stance change characters ( I actually tried to make a team of lei/ Steve work in x tekken) this character is so fun!

the roll corpsehop is really good, i was messing around with it during the beta and it worked after a TON of stuff.
i’m not really a fan of anything that comes from a st. hk crush counter though. that feels so unreliable. i guess you could do dp punish stuff with it but why bother with a reset when you can get really good guaranteed damage anyway?
that matador turn evading the DP at 2:30 was damn good
I guess the beta is over (would be nice if they at least let us use training mode and turn the servers off)
learn your switch combos and learn which combos to use in each situation. thats all i can say for now
I’m an idiot. I never knew you could do V-Trigger and then combo into super…
I don’t think or expect Claw to be nerfed. Are many people really calling for it? I am not seeing it, I guess.
I don’t think they will. They might nerf Crimson Terror (the rolly move) like how they nerfed Bison’s LK Scissors. But yeah, he’s a really solid and fair character.
I might switch from Dictator to Claw. I never thought I’d think that.
It is a pretty good anti air for distant jump-ins, stuff hp.ASE would wiff on.
Personally what I want got every character is for them to get all their nerfs back and keep current buffs that way everyone is as strong as can beasily then at release you buff those that need more help. Vega should stay as is, he’s amazing bUT fair.
Anyone use Aurora Edge (QCB+HP) to Anti-Air? It seems so slow but I just can’t see it. Gonna’ test this out more tomorrow.
Any reason to use EX Aurora Edge? I guess you could use it as a medium range poke. I can’t imagine much else.
Out of all the characters Vega gave me the most trouble when facing him
ex aurora is actually a good antiair if they jump in front of you. it kinda sucks them in. but yeah when i started getting hp ASE down to muscle memory for antiairing i noticed my points going up a lot faster. it’s really important for him, especially since he can convert it into sooo much damage.
also i’ve seen a TON of people saying vega is the strongest character in the beta so i don’t think nerfs are really out of the question.
one last “also” - they already nerfed vega’s roll like they did scissor kicks. it definitely wasn’t -3 until this build.
