You know what's ironic? Everything Ken does is meant to be balanced around him having no range yet Juri has even less range

This games balance is unlike anything I've seen before. Characters in this game are punishing you for putting them in blockstun by V-reversaling you into a mix-up

ryu kills in 2 combos if they're both crush counters and he uses both v trigger and super twice. Seems unlikely in a match.

Me telling you the only possible situation in which your idiotic statement is possible isn't downplaying. Also v reversals aren't punishes and they cost resources, are block able or throwable on a read(reaction in some cases).

[downplaying] Also v reversals aren't punishes and they cost resources, are block able or throwable on a read(reaction in some cases).
The List:
  • Upside down kick being +4 is game breaking
  • R.Mika is honest
  • Nash is honest
  • Ryu is Top 5 but honest and not cheap
  • V-reversal aren't good or even punishes. Just magically exit your slow recovering move and throw them, especially those pesky 10f ones

1. Is a misquote I said it'd be useless not game breaking.

2-3 yeah they're honest imo.

4. I actually said top 2 and honest.

5. I said they're not punishing you. They're spending resources to use something that is situational and when misused can lose them the game. They're incredibly powerful but limited and counterable, aka balanced.

I'm gona have to do a Scott and insist you don't continue this topic. If you can't see an issue with somone like F.A.N.G pressuring R.Mika with his multi-hitting moves and her punishing him for making her BLOCK by V-reversaling him into a vortex then I don't know

BTW, if your reading this I'm responding to ECT Q&A from Daigo.

He gave some legit advice when dealing with pressure. Try to look at the whole screen and your opponent, and not just your character. Most players look at their character when under pressure, which makes them anxious.

Yea me too, I honestly still think Nash is at worst number 2, I called him top tier number 1 just weeks after the game came out, before he won anything really.
hes definitely not top 2. Ryu and chun are pretty much undisputed top 2 at this point. I think the next 5 characters are all tied though.
