Vega Thread

So happy that Vega is in SFxT, i’m going to pair him with either Poison, King, Yoshimitsu, or (If he’s in) Lei Wulong. Does anyone have any videos of Claw in SFxT yet?

Only this:

I checked with some of the guys. Apparently Sky High Claw is the move which you Super Charge (I can’t confirm either way, I honestly don’t remember.) The motion is charge down, up three punches.

To help out Vegaman a little…

Notion for the moves, besides supers, are the same as SF4.

Stand heavy kick was the only real anti air I tried on the ground. Got beaten clean by Zangief and King on multiple occasions, even when they did bad jumps.

EX RCF gets a full combo afterwards. The “Sol Combo” = St.HP - Cr.MP - St.HP - EX Roll - Cr.MP - Ex Izuna drop/Super

Loses them and they can be picked up.

Do you think it’s possible to do another EX RCF after the first one, or are you just too far away?

I don’t think this combo would work, but I’m happy to be proven wrong.

Since ken doesn’t have his Kara throw I doubt vega does.

is BHC a QCF motion move now?

check the c.mp into BHC here

its probably still a charge move. in this game super arts are as simple as performing special moves. its probably charge down, Up PPP or KKK

ah ok that still makes sense :slight_smile:

The front page vids just posted are increasing my vega hype!!!

He’s going to be good.

IDK guys I can’t really make out whether his cr. lps are still links…that cosmic heel is looking a lot better than SF4 though.

Actualy just watched the footage of gameplay and i have mixed feelings about cosmic heel…yes it is faster than it was in SF4 and you can get a full combo out of it but looks like it has less active frames and aparently whiff on crouchers…it whiffed on Abel and that is kinda disturbing…i hope is safe on block

Wow, I’m really hyped after these new gameplay vids. Vega looks like a overpowered Version of his SF4 iteration, with still great pokes and footsie game, combo video stuff and a real reversal! Now I can’t wait for this game.

Only downside is the “Cosmic Heel whiffing on crouching Abel”. Since the range was pretty far, I hope they just nerfed the hitbox a bit. CH whiffing on crouchers would really suck.

Hm, does he still has his kara throw? Would be really awesome since the throw ranges in this game are pretty small.

Maybe a speed gem can remedy the slow wall dives.

Really glad that he supposedly turned out to be awesome again.

I don’t think I see ST being beat a single time…it really may have invul frames…also vega can finally combo into BHC in a seemingly practical way…Edit:kara throw may not be possible in this game…you see the vega player whiffing a couple of throw attemps probably while thying to kara throw…

looks like our boy will hopefully be in the top 5 in terms of tiers. he looks badass

I don’t really remember a situation in the videos where Scarlet Terror could have been beaten. No meaty reversals or anything.

In the combo video vega did c.mp into super. I don’t know the frame data on vega but I’m pretty sure c.mp is +5 on hit. If he cancel into a super and it connects…that means his super has a fast start up.
