gotta stay sharp!
Hein is not bad, dude is fuckin bonkers in the corner. Has safe specials, and can frametrap for days with his fireball.
Maxima is way worse compared to him lol.
Lol i dont think so lol. Easier than maxima for sure. But maxima can hang. Hes a little cheekier and can really get going If you know what your doing

I'd play you to see what Maxima not eating shit looks like but I'm in Dubai so online ain't gonna happen. I've only played one Maxima since the game was released.
I do believe Hein is solid as fuck though. What do you see lacking with him? One of my training partners plays him and he's super solid, his only problem is not having a meterless reversal and that divekick is his only crossup.

Meterless reversal and dive kick cross up for sure. His neutral buttons are kinda weird. Far c and far d have decent range but kinda hit weird angles for like nuetral buttons. Cr c is shorter than it looks. When f.A wiffs cause you aren't close after a block string is annoying. I def think hes solid just mostly his buttons are iffy sometimes. When you want a close D but get far D and his kick wiffs over the opponets head its annoying lol.

Hein does suffer from weak AA's without super, and he's kind of meh midscreen, but he has like the best mixes in the game when he has you in the corner, and raw MAX mode gives him access to some really good EX specials no one talks about.

Get your guns on. Sheriff is back.
Holy crap...Antonov may actually be playable now with all that projectile invulnerability and the crH confirm to super on deck.

I can't view this on my phone, but I'm pretty sure it's going to make me feel bad about my Vanessa skills.
I am sold on her though and I've been playing a little more. JuiceBox said her pants were ridiculous, but I'm saying they're awesome.
Who doesn't wear bell bottoms and sandals to a fight? I'm not really sure why I'm good at Vanessa execution since its well beyond anything I've ever even tried before but brain decided to be good at it without all that much effort. Breaking each segment of longer combos down into separate pieces and not playing for too long at any given time (to allow it to nestle in your brain) seems to help. Of course since its XIV you could just play the relatively easy top tiers instead, but not if you want to do swag stuff like Reynald.

Speaking of Juicebox:

 
Are you guys down for a room tonight I may be pretty free since I just got back into the game and I stopped playing it before getting good but it will still be fun
