It’s all posted above.

mowr · 2011-08-25T08:48:14.000Z

SSB still doesn’t break armour. SMH.

Oh yay, we can waste 2 bars on rose.

Crossup is nice though, will have to see how that plays out. Overall, slightly disappointed with changes.

air jab cross up! WTF!
improved swing blow?
Old RH CH combos!
lol at rose bing focus and super cancellable… Sounds like fun, hope these are translated properly.

Shonuff438 · 2011-08-25T08:56:50.000Z

I just hope that air jab cross up is going to give enough frame advantage to continue into another combo… most jab and short attacks leave very little frames to work with…

Renegade_TX2000 · 2011-08-25T09:01:15.000Z

st.roundhouse is +7 on counterhit? what was it in super?

the buffs that i’m happy about…

Rolling thunder will catch back dashes alotttt better now.

st.roundhouse is back…

and then the air to air jab mix up game will make ppl think twice before jumping.

marn gonna make a return to dudley already.

Mr.X · 2011-08-25T09:03:52.000Z

Mr.X:

crHK is actually a frame faster than in 3S lol

Capcom first set of notes seem to be right on the money. Whatever they give him, even if it doesn’t seem like much, I’m sure it’s going to be an improvement even if it’s not immediately obvious (like the new cr MK).

More worried about the old and current bad matchups and their changes.

Mr.X:

Make your peace with it now instead of getting sadface when the news comes that it’s only buffed hitboxes and frame data on shit no one uses.

Hate when I’m right.

Well at least trolling with Thunderbolt will be more consistent.

Also, fuck Thirtyfour saying stop asking for stuff. We should’ve asked more for more crazy absurd shit looks at Cody

I wonder what unmentioned changes Dudley got.

CDB2 · 2011-08-25T09:04:27.000Z

MeLLoW:

right now it’s hard for me to get used to 3rd strike. the feel of the game… ugh…

You and me too bro. You know what do with Duds’ but it is hard as hell to get used to the timming.

…crossups…useful SSB buffs

…u1’s an aerial counter now

cliffeside · 2011-08-25T09:06:51.000Z

that U1 connecting fully on aerial makes me wonder.would it be possible to juggle with it now? i swear, the day that ultra gets reliable ways to combo into it, i’mnever using U2 again.

but jesus christ, these buffs are amazing.

mowr · 2011-08-25T09:08:45.000Z

They’re not THAT amazing. The best buff is on SSB and it STILL doesn’t break armour.

wait i think i read the jab cross up wrong. Cross up when they are on the ground?

holy ****, misread. Meaty cross up!?

mowr · 2011-08-25T09:12:08.000Z

Brb switching to Cody.

brainpipe · 2011-08-25T09:12:45.000Z

I think being able to focus cancel the rose means there is a good chance that it will help put thepressure on like in 3S. SSB, the potential crossup and the rose seem like big buffs should they function the way we all hope. I think they mean jump short crosses up and not jab though since that already crosses up inconsistently on a few characters.

MeLLoW · 2011-08-25T09:14:35.000Z

Dudley’s standing Hard Kick is now +7 on counter-hit. The blog notes that if you land a counter-hit standing Hard Kick and cancel into Light Ducking, you’ll still be at +4.

• Dudley’s neutral jump Light Punch got a hitbox size buff.

• Neutral Jump Hard Punch startup changed to 6 frames, and the hitbox was extended in size.

• Angled jumping Light and Medium Punch have had their active times lengthened.

Dudley’s Level 1 Focus Attack has an extra frame of blockstun, when it’s guarded. This means that if you dash forward after a Level 1 Focus Attack is guarded, Dudley is now at -3.

• Short Swing Blow has had its hurtbox on Dudley’s lower body reduced.

• EX Thunderbolt does not flash yellow until it comes down from the sky.

**• You can now Super Cancel Dudley’s rose toss taunt. **This also means that you can FADC it.

** • Dudley’s Ultra 1 will now strike more hits against an airborne opponent. [Translator’s note: The blog might be talking about making Dudley’s Ultra 1 and Ibuki’s Ultra 2 so that they juggle non-cinematic like Yun and Yang’s do.]**

DUDLEY GOT HIS ST.HK ON COUNTER HIT BACK. LET’S GO.
