Soul Calibur 6: THE SOUL STILL BURNS!

TheGabStandard

The anticipation is killing me
Any Taki mains in this thread? How is she in this version? I honestly haven't spent much time with SC6 yet as I've had little free time to game and I've been spending that with Assassin's Creed Odyssey and now Red Dead Redemption 2?
I'm mainly play Taki and so far she seems good but requires a lot of thinking. She doesn't have a move your can carelessly throw out on a whim but can thrive on conditioning your opponent in her pressure game. Winning won't be easy but she has the tools to compete imo

I mainly play Azwel. He has various moves you can carelessly throw out on a whim but can also thrive on conditioning your opponent with his disgusting plus frames. Winning will be easy unless your opponent plays one of a few very specific characters that are even dumber than he is, and he has the tools to trash a tournament.

Not sure how im feeling about Geralt. He has ok tools, but his damage output is whack and is kinda hard to get in. Not really feeling him like i thought i would.

His while rising B and GI combo starter thing are bunkers though.
Yeah...its cute. But i like 8 way running to get in on opponents and his side stepping A is trash with stupid amount of startup, i just get his out of it. His Soul Charge is kinda cheap becuz you can spam 8A+B and it will always win up close. Buuuut eh.....i just feel hes missing something.

I'm unfamiliar with her, but I keep reading stuff that insinuates she is one of the better characters, possibly top 5 or 6.

Have you found any great reasons for Shield Stance, other than projectiles? I use 1A for the occasional low hit, and 4B for the guard break, but it seems like anytime I try to deviate from Ax Stance, the opponent starts beating me out of everything. It seems like 99% of my gameplan is 6B, 6BB, 6AA, and Ax Stance B+K.

Can someone tell me the idea of Yoshis A+K(flash) its i8(?), +10(?) on hit, and works as GI to horizontals. Range is ass,does 0dmg, pushes opponent pretty far if it hits. In scv, if u GI:ed horizontals u unlocked new move but I rly have not found purpose for this move. Also can someone test those frames on pc? Ty in advance

Azwel's 2A+B is very similar! It's a long-range 360-degree low, but it does no damage, no guard crush, and the stun on hit isn't long enough to capitalize on (8 frames). It has no special properties or lethal hit abilities. I have no idea what is the purpose of these moves.

So far, its trash. I have yet to see anybody use that move.

I know this game has been out for what....2 weeks? But the amount of FILTHY scrubs is ridiculous. I mean, we do need casuals to keep the game going, but this casual base is something else....not in a good way.

The problem with the game i have for now - it is incredibly divided.

You have a lot of people who just mash and you learn nothing (beside bad habits) and then you have people who are playing the same character (and the whole series) for 20 years now and completely destroys you, coz they even know your character (not to mention everything else) way better then you.

Made Tira SC4 inspired, Raphael SC3 alt inspired and an alt coloured Grøh to make him look a bit less anime-fied.

Online is fucking trash right now. So many people STILL can't even access it, which is sad. A lot of things needs tweeked as far as matchmaking system, having quick match options in Casual instead of that whack ass lobby system where you get kicked out, having CaS in Ranked need to change or have an option to not play CaS in Ranked....Voldo's broken ass, Talim has a broken combo that needs fixed...

SO MANY THINGS and im sure there's more we haven't even discovered yet thats fucked. Ain't gonna lie tho, its still fun but i see it dying fast.

His Spear stance is quite weak honestly, but he does have a very good GI on A+B. I mainly use it in Allmighty though since I get 3 times the range, twice the damage and keep the GI. If you find yourself close to your opponent in Spear his FC1B is pretty good though.

His 1B isn't too bad either after a 6BA on hit, but even then i prefer throws. Besides that yeah, I mostly only use Spear for projectiles and B+K, which is way worse than it looks but the damage is bunkers.

I also like to use the mixup in 7A / 7B from time to time, but that's because I'm an idiot. They do make for great auto ring out tools though!

Apparently the Bamco Japan Stream is out so we know a few things about 2B

-She has 2 CE (2nd one is super dope)
-Her moveset can be used in CaS
-The new CaS parts are available for original CaS

And that beautiful new stage does not seem to have any ring outs, but not too certain. She looks fucking awesome tho!
