So Ryu, Chun, and Juri are getting new school outfits skins. I like it. Still waiting on Nostalgia Alex and Ibuki skins still. I would think it would come along with M.Bison SF2 stage.

It's all so very confusing.

That seems to be the consensus. She has some cool shit, but it just seems like she cant implement her game plan.. and it also seems like she may not actually have a game plan. She has a lot of tools and a lot of shit going on, but it just doesn't click together. All her tools seem to be weak-ish versions compared to the same tool on a different character. I mean, people have been saying this since s1, but she STILL feels incomplete to me. Its like she's lacking some - probably small - thing to pull it all together. I wouldnt have the slightest idea how to make her good though, I dont know if changes to her fireball charge system thing would matter, or if she just needs a better normal(s) to make her neutral strong enough to build off of.

I like her, I think she's a super interesting character and Id buy her legacy skin just to have it, but, and this is an oft-lamented thing, she's a hollow shell of her SFIV counterpart which is a SUPER interesting, dynamic, complex and really fun character.

Does anybody actually know why akuma can os his parry? I mean mechanically why it works not how to do it, it's easy enough, but I'm curious what's actually going on.

Yeah I'm more curious why the button doesn't come out if they v reversal. I'm assuming it's the freeze frame eating the input but I'm not sure. I wanna test other stuff with it but I wanna know why it works so I don't waste time trying stuff that doesn't.

I think the freeze frame might be expanding the cancel window of the previous normal. Then there might be some input priority going on as well.

Nah I'm talking about when you do the jump in one. You can os a button to come out if they block or get hit, or a parry to come out if they vreversal. You don't cancel any normals or anything like that.

What I'm talking about isn't really used on wakeup. But the os will beat an invincible reversal used after they block the jump in. Unless it has multiple hits.

Side note it's gotta be used as a reversal for the os to beat it. If they delay it it won't work.

Side side note. Doesn't really matter because you don't have to leave a gap between your jump in and your next button so they shouldn't have an opportunity to ex dp.

Side side side note. It's good to leave a small gap if you're doing it with cr hp so you can crush counter so maybe it IS relevant.

I am. It's not foolproof because they can delay the v reversal to beat it but they've gotta hold it long enough that it's a risk so you can just use it as a mind game. that being said that only works on heavy jump ins lighter ones wont let them v reversal late enough but they also wont provide enough blockstun for the cr hp to be a true blockstring so you can mix it up if they don't know whats going on.
