FUUUUU...

I'm too slow.
Can you tell me if smoke gets anything in exchange?
Because his damage got nerfed already.
Will the damage nerf be undone when he loses his OTG bomb?
 
He can still do 40% damage combos on midscreen. He has pretty good BnB.. even without OTG. What does AE stand for?

AE is short for Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition. But I agree Smokes fine without his OTG it's not like he's getting mutilated with a huge nerf or anything.

ya except for a safe exicution into his xray

Keep it in, it's not that bad and it's not like it makes Smoke broken....
 
Should def keep it in, when fighters like Lao have so much potential for kombos that are 40%+ standard why not smoke, i think he will be near naked without it IMO.

I don't see why the smoke bomb being removed is such a hot debate, all it was useful for was linking into his bnb, I don't know anyone who actually gets hit by the smoke bomb outside of the bnb.

Even then, the tracking on it was pretty bad tbh.

If it's not useful outside of his bnb, wouldn't removing it's bnb application make it useless ? I think you answered your own question lol

@ R2FI:
OTG bomb means you do Smoke's bomb after his air grab with the right timing.
The Bomb hits the opponent as he bounces Off The Ground after the air throw. It works as a combo.

Even though i suppose bomb working as combo after air throw was not intended, it's really a cool find.

And taking it out does not only weaken him too much (especially after they nerfed his damage already)
It also, and more important for me, significantly reduces the variety of combos you can do with him.
Which is awful because it makes him more boring.

It could give you like what, 30% for landing an air throw? That is pretty nuts, tbh. I do think he should've kept it, though.

I mean i voted to keep it , but its out. It's not a huge problem..never was, it's just NRS didn't mean for it to be in there so it's out. Either way it isn't a real big deal. Its not like smoke does any sort of rush down game anyway.

Pretty lame decision. The OTG bomb didn't make him broken or overpowered. Who the hell had that "brilliant" idea of taking it out?

Make it 20 but KEEP IT IN.
Sektor gets tons of damage from jump kick~teleupp although i have to admit that that is way riskier than jump kick air throw.

What bothers me the most is the "dumbing down gameplay" factor.

I can understand the logic of removing it from a straight jump kick, but yea, I think taking out of a combo string that was already started with a 3 1 2 is horse.... Smoke's normals are slow as hell to begin with, it's only fair to let him have the damage from it.
 
ok im still new to this. im not sure im understanding your guys language around here. otg i got that one ^^^. but what is bnb. and there not completley getting rid of the smoke ball all together are they??? im confused, too bad i havent been playing fighting games that long. someone quote me on this please and thankyou
