I want Lucky Chloe becomes the best character in Tekken Just for the salt.

and the Tier enthusiasts would get extra salty when Evo runs the USA version without her in it.

 

[mbpm1]

But you complain about Elena

Rolento is easy to beat though.

Somebody on /r/kappa broke down the CPT rankings by players and their main character.

GUILE: NUCKLEDU [230], DIEMINION [36]

Kev fell off

 

[Geminosity]

Is there a lot of variety in character/arcana combinations at high level play or does there end up being a "best" arcana for each character that everyone uses?

No idea i'm afraid. I only dabbled with it in training mode. Not been keeping up with the high level play stuffs. Looks like Shaowebb was watching some tournie stuff though, so they might know more :3

I'm very late to this discussion but Arcana is actually a game I looked at a lot when I was building some concepts for a fighting game for myself. I was big on its mobility and "assists" via Arcana but still found myself settling for a more grounded design (Vsav-like) since I just didn't think there was any cool spin I could put on homing dashes for my concept that would warrant further thinking out/spinning off into its own design. Those guys basically nailed it and anything else would just be an imitation.

Imitation is the cheapest form of flattery tho

Some chars have a best, others have about 4-5 choices. It does serve as a balancing tool

Not sure what you mean by balancing tool, but 4-5 sounds like pretty good variety.

Arcanas compensate for characters lacking tools or ways to deal with certain matchups, I imagine. I don't know since, when I tried the game, all I did was mash D with Love Heart lol.

He was also top 8 at Evo as well. Definitely was slept on.

Edit: which comes first for SFV.

Original 17 from ST, or the entire cast of 3rd strike?

 

[Kadey]

The three main Shotos and two Chinese guys have won EVO.

The Asians + European characters won EVO before an American character. That's how free the US is.

If Capcom were smart, they'd run a poll and charge folks $1 to vote a character to keep out of the series.

I know, don't give them any ideas...
