All general discussion and questions. I’m going to be updating the OP a lot with a lot of common questions and/or information that’s worth knowing for a beginner to Poison (as the usual General Discussion threads go).

Normals

[details=Spoiler]What are Poison’s best anti-airs?
crouching HP, st. HK, HK Kissed By a Goddess (DP), EX Kissed By a Goddess (DP), st. MP

May hop on the Poison train. Gonna try out Decapre first, and mess around with Yun/Juri/Sagat.

Them Bison secondary choices.

4

Poison for sure is gonna be my main, but I’m gonna at least try the other new characters too to see if I could use them as alts.

5

Does anyone know a comparable range to Poison’s U2?

Yo.

Yo, we in here.

Yooooooooo!!!

I’d assume you’d compare with Guy’s U2.

Can’t know for sure 'til we see those hitboxes though… (or some lab work on Monday night!)

8

Please change the Thread sub title, something normal is preferable.

Will update my Frame Data thread as soon as the App Launches.

9

I figured as much. U1 seems like the most viable ultra. Looks cooler too, so :stuck_out_tongue:

10

Don’t be “that” asshat.

I will sub her along with Hugo and maybe Elena. Poison should prove to be the most pick up and play friendly of the bunch. Can’t wait to see what taunts she has.

11

Because you didn’t agree with what I said you resorted to calling me an asshat…Classy. You just gave me a reason to block you…good day.

12

Cool. I really don’t care, you reacted and that’s what I wanted.

Gee is flagging someone because your ass is hurt exclusive? I’m about to find out…

13

What’s wrong with the thread title? I think it’s funny.

14

Idk, Im not a fan of it but w/e forget I said anything.

15

Unless the range secretly changed from the Final Round build, it’s pretty small. (And there are times I felt like it moved the hitbox or range back due to Poison moving backwards)

U2 does A LOT of damage though.

16

Has it been confirmed that her health is at 1000 now?

17

knowing Capcom, she’ll be 950 or 900 cause females don’t go over that lol. (Somehow Makoto and/or Chun seems to always be the exception.)

18

I believe Makoto’s health is only at 950. As for Chun Li’s health, it was 900 but raised to 950.

Poison’s health was 950 in SFxT, but I’ve read several times that it’s been increased to 1000 in USF4. If it is 1000 now, do you think Capcom did this on purpose to make it obvious that she is not female?

19

we’ll know for sure when the game is released.

Does anyone know how safe Cr.MK into LMT is
