I play a good Voldo, Aeon and Maxi and a competent ZWEI and Ezio. A little rusty but should be able to give you a good set after a game or two.

Hit me up for games. XBL + PSN : Temjiin

Thanks man, I'm on PSN as Lastenmurskaajah. What is definitely refreshing about this game is not having to grind some max dmg/max wall carry 10 hit swag combos just to be able to play the frigging game as the combos are pretty simple and it seems the emphasis of the game is heavily on footsies and learning how to play a character in the neutral game and in actual matches. Most damaging lows are seeable and the varying hit level "cheese" strings ie. mid-high-mid/mid-lows etc. seem easier to recognise than in TTT2. I don't really know yet how much time I want to invest, but Nightmare's character design and the general mechanics of this game make it hella fun even on a casual level for me. Taking a round off of someone by using NM's B+G crouch throw to throw them overhead off the ledge to a ring out after getting almost beat to death is just hilarious lmao.

This game is utterly terrible...Scv is a far cry from what made soul calibur great from the original series titles...it went from being a pure fighting game with cool fighting tech and a true fight system with no gay ass 2.3 patches and a community that grinded out the game rather than scream for patches mostly....the character list was so great like different fighting styles never even scene in weapon based fighting games....ugh enter soul calibur 5....which started off awesome....i called out everyone...and it was great until i noticed something in this game....patroklos and his sister took up the character list with thier emo versions....patroklos super was broke as fuck took way too much damage for the Poster boy n girl....after this i thought maybe the game isnt that bad....another month of march and leixia got patch raped twice down the point where famous sc player Kayane shouted to me on twitter....shes not even useable anymore....i saw other good lexis make top 3 in later tourneys but this small nimble girl then became slow as shit...and all her great normals became shit...her and mitsus super could be linked twice.....excuse me lexias was a bug...super rape continues......what a bad game....

As a Leixia player, I know your feels.

Made me quit the game too, but supposedly tech was found to make her more viable.

i wouldnt say so. there is still small tournament at every major and there is new tech actively being found. there are maybe 3 or 4 tournaments a year that get 60+ entrants. for a game thats 2 years old and people just want to talk shit on it all the time, we've done pretty good i think

SCV is still better and more balanced than any 2D fighter out there. People always bitch about balance issues and bad MU's in 2D fighters, but what do you expect when all your options are basically limited to: Footsies: Hadouken/Shoryuken/half-screen Sonya d4 or Kenshi bf2. Defensive poking: Armor/Mash d1-special attack every time you block something safe. Okizeme: Do a wake-up attack or block. Yomi/Mix-ups: Link a command low/overhead into a string with a low/overhead in it and score a launch with an unseaable/non-fuzzy guardable 50/50 and that's basically all there is to it in all 2D games. Even with invincible wake-ups and armor 2D games still manage to have corner loops and infinites. The risk/reward of all characters in 2D games is unevenly distributed, either something is launch punishable or it is safe and that's just plain stupid.
