He’s coming for the Brasil Game Show at Rio in October. Hopefully SFxT will be part of the exhibition and playable.
This is a little off topic but if capcom would have as much time on AE like Namco does with Tekken 6, then AE would have been fine.
Anyways i really want to know if poison’s super is mashable because it cannot do that little damage.
Too bad I won’t be able to make it and meet Ono. But hey, all my money is going towards Evo 2k12, so I’ll meet Ono there and thank him in person for putting Poison in SFxTK. If any of you guys live in Rio be sure to welcome him, I honestly am a bit scared of the whole PV side of our community. Way too many regionalisms and regional rivalries (the bad kind) which in IMO are still thwarting our scene from growing. Hopefully it will change with the coming years.
But I heard stuff from the “brass cut” of the BR community like “we (like, some 4 dudes) ARE the BR community”. Just imagine if Inkblot or Mr. Wizard said they were the FGC and fuck the rest etc.
But international drama aside, back to the Poison thread.
so is she rushdown or zoning or some wierd hybrid of the two? another question is WHY IS SHE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOT?!?!!? Ono done trolled us again.
Poison is a Mix-up heavy character, but i feel long winded if i explain this again~ anyone else would like to take care of this for me?
Poison’s gameplay is mainly based around Mix-ups as stated above. She has many options at her disposal that will surely weed out the trolls who don’t have the skill or dedication to use her. In her move set so far ( it could all change) is a series of 3 rekka type whip slashes that I believe either start or end in an overhead if ya use the ex version. Poison’s EX rekkas’ have 4 hits and can be combo’d out of I believe it’s been awhile since pax.
She has some fireballs but they have crap for durabilty but hit multiple times. This means they will likely be used more as a makeshift Aesglis Reflector to apply more pressure than full on sagat style zoning. It’s still up in the air ( like alot of things) how best to use them as in the current build they disappear over time. The EX poison balls (lol) don’t disapate and hit more so she will have SOME zoning game, how much is to be determined. I predict poison will be the bane of grapplers in this game as she has meterless multihit fireballs and a multihit air normal I forget which one.
Did I miss something?..Oh right she has a flip hurricanrana type move that is an overhead and puts the enemy in untechable knockdown. I shouldn’t have to tell you for a character with her pressure tools and many overheads that is a shitty situation to be in. Ummmmm…is that it?..her super art can be combo’d into ( duh) so its not a grapple…and thats all I can remember from day 1 her announcement to testing her ( a little) to finding info across the web. Ahhhhhhhhhh she has pretty good range on her normals right now so thats good but could easily change.
Calling it now, Cross Assault after Love Me Tender for guaranteed unblockables.
Wow “she” seems strong of course this is an early build, As it stands now ill probably try her out. “She” looks like she has a cool playstyle and theres the DAT ASS factor.
The REAL question is… Why wasn’t she on SSF4: AE? Judging from what she can do on SFxT, she would kick ass and still look good doing it in her booty shorts and Candy Apple Louboutins. 
Good normals (even some multi-hitting)
Multi-hitting fireball that can either be slow or fast depending on what version you use.
Cute flip-kick that’s an overhead and can be used a throw (if used right) Probably can dodge projectiles.
Rekkas. 1st hit is overhead but can use for pressure. EX version that knocks the opponent for a juggles.
Dragon-kick.
A backflip that can be use to dodge projectiles.
Plus the important thing about her, ATTITUDE!
I would actually play AE if she was on there. (or Karin but definitely that outrageous biotch!) 
Not only that - most of brazilians do have pretty big egos - and that kind of attitude is what hold us back to grow as a fighting game community. Plus, the hate of anything non-Capcom related is still strong (even more blatant then some folks here).
You were listening too much of Misfits’s “Gimme Gimme Gimme”, right?
Poison in SSFIV would be nice and all, but she would be “too good”, if her moves and their respective proprieties were retained. At least, she’s in the better game - not the boring one.
lol Yes. I was born in the 80’s after all. 
Because the only thing I give for free is ATTITUDE! lol
But you’re right. She would be too good for Apology Edition but then again, who is good? Plus, SSF4 is a bit boring for me. I like to keep up with a faster paced game like this and UMVC3.
i love how my quotes are being used~ shout outs to D3V
anyways hope to get my hands on the game again, there are some Cross Assault mix-ups i wanted to test out and see how well i can use her stationary fireball. also im going to see of more ways to use live me tender(such as a makeshift anti-air)
but yeah im pretty excited for TGS~that Lili teaser got me hyped alittle.
If you do get your hands into the game again, please test Rolento with her too. Methinks that both can work decently as a team.
sure, i’ll give rolento a few tries if i get to play it again, i wanted to test him and lili out anyways so i’ll look into it.
Been to Brazil…they will never have a powerhouse fighting game Nation or country because those guys are too wild. They have hella tempers ( I got in unessesary fights) and get super emotional salty imo. I dunno why but they have alot of passion about fighters they like but I didn’t find many that were MK fans like I hoped. Almost no tekken love last time I was there.
On topic: Poison having a backflip that avoids projectiles is right up my alley as a Vega player. I am getting so worried Cody is not in this game Rolento being shown before him just annoys me to no end. Nothing agianst Ro yo boat fans but I’ve been calm and patient but if he’s not in I may lose my interest and I don’t want to.
Without Cody I wouldn’t have Cody,Vega,Alex,Lee,Elena,Leo,Adon, or Karin; I would only have Ken and poison thats not enough. I would only be playing for Poison and thats dumb. I can play Hwoarang in Tekken so give me Cody already!!!
well to tell ya the truth, i didnt really use that command flip all that much, it looks decent enough but, it isnt really for me, i guess i’ll throw it in there when i think i could use it, but it looks so punishable… especially if your in the corner.
Well duh but its very useful on enemy wake up to avoid getting random shoryu’d. If used right it can be additional mindgames.
Also you should know it makes it MUCH easier to avoid getting zoned out,that chip damage adds up and being able to avoid that is a huge plus for poison. Vega doesn’t get zoned and now nethier will poison which is one less thing to worry about.
I’m more worry about how good she seems on paper which makes me believe that she may get nerfed to shit before the game comes out and wind up crap tier. I’ll still play her but it’ll suck making Cody do the heavy lifting,but I’ll likely be able to beat people with just my Cody anyway.
I’ve seen a video where Ken had Poison backed completely in the corner and did a Shoryuken at point-blank range and she was able to backflip through the whole thing and punish him.
I was really surprised.
Took the words off my mouth.
While the people here are quite “lively”, they’re also a bit brash and foul-mouthed. We have a lot of potential to grow into one of the biggest scenes in the world regarding FGs, but people would rather bicker between themselves (they’re full of ego) and downplay other games for superficial reasons (if you think that US is harsh with AH3, try talking about the game around here).
Plus, like I said earlier, globalization plays a major role on what brazilians do and behave regarding fighting games - most of them only know and play Capcom fighters just because that’s what US play - instead of thinking outside the box and building an unique scene (and not copy-pasting an existing one).
And sadly, there’s no scene at all with Tekken. Once TTT2 releases, I’ll do everything to change that, regardless of the odds. You know, someone have to do something, if there’s no one up to the task.

On Topic:
IMO, Poison will be a “sleepy hit” in the early metagame (if they don’t nerf her to crap before release, that is).
She does have the tools to keep up. Thing is, scrubs only flock to fancy combos (long and damaging ones), plus any abusable move who can be use in a good number of situtations. Poison lacks all of that “flash” - chances are that the casuals will dismiss her, in favor of characters with better short-term “risk/reward”.
Poison, IMO, will be a character that you’ll have to be knowleadgeble on fundamentals about the game to succeed, since one of her major selling points are her good normals and their proprieties.
Let’s hope that she does NOT get nerfed. I mean… why fix something that’s not broken? Her health isn’t all that great but that compensates what she has to offer. :o
