Maybe Eisbahn was actually a tease for Helen/Kolin!? It's just German for "ice track" and that ad said something like "coming winter 2016", which it pretty much is if we're using Capcom time.
 
So I was debating about making a video for this or not, because I don't really need Laura's having even more of an advantage in the match-up against Mika, but nah, it's too ridiculous not to highlight.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZyB5kr9W5s

Laura beats Mika in literally every single area. In mix-ups. In damage output. In health. In mobility. In pressure. In footsie tools. In zoning. Her j.LK even stuffs out Mika's cr.MP (her go-to AA) a significant amount of the time, so she can't even AA properly, even if she SEES Laura coming in. And now, when Mika actually manages to get in and it's clearly her turn to be doing something—NOPE, it's Laura's turn.

Good times.

this is the exact same video I made earlier lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3XaUSmvZso

nvm you posted it above

but yea, I showed the options against it in my video as well, so if someone is using st.LK against you, you can switch it up. You can do cr.MK -> CH -> ex peach.

just like that you have an answer for it

Looks like her model got cleaned up quite nicely for actual play , also looks super fun to use.

Also that new Lupe song was pretty catchy.

Yeah, that's basically a confirmation of an emergency balance patch incoming, to be announced early March.

Some people better pray.

Gonna have a hard time deciding which costume to use, to be honest. The Nostalgia Costume looks great but the short hair on the story alt beckons...
 
lol if they miss the SF3 20th anniversary nostalgia costume opportunity

I'm betting it's coming next month if they are going to drop content on us in those types of intervals.

Character looks extremely fun, has a pretty different gameplan, and looks like they put in some real work on her. Additionally, the production values on the trailer got better, and it looks like whatever they are doing for character stories is going to be less about shitty artwork and more in-game cutscenes (or another story mode?). And we know when characters and content are coming next. That's a pretty decent start, Capcom.

My only fear is the patch. I hope they don't buckle to those screaming nerfs and instead make other characters stronger.

Theres hope for chun

Chun is still good get outta here.
 
Kolin rocks Cammy's look better than she does. I think it's the bubble vest. Looks pretty dope. Too bad her nostalgia alt isn't her default look too. Capcom misses pretty hard on the major redesigns compared to ASW imo.

Bonchan better hope Capcom didn't see his FT10 against Nemo.

Seems like we gotta wait to 2 more weeks. Its releasing on the 28th of this month.

I hope the new balance patch gives back Ibuki her old moves back but it is unlikely. The current Ibuki movesets should of been a new character instead. I still hate the way she plays.

Her eyes look a little weird (at least in the default costume), but her moves look dope. Looks like her V-Skill is an Akuma style parry/punish thing.

It'd be funny if some of the characters that became top tier with the last patch like Laura or Balrog got super nerfed. They will basically have enjoyed a record short amount of time as top tier.
 
Rog, Urien, Guile, and Laura players like

If Donpachi, Gunfight and Kubo really cared they'd just stop playing SFV until the patch is released. Best not give Capcom any excuse to nerf Alex further. I'd say the same about Fang, but there might be like... one dude who plays him well at this point? lol

I dunno have you played a NRS game? You get like a week of being top tier before the nerfcops come iirc.

Honestly I guess let them nerf if they have to to make things normalized. That's not what people want until they start losing, but if Rog gets his damage reduced it'd be nice to not have to hear people whine when I get the comeback.

lol, I do think the nerfs aren't going to be heavy and instead mostly focusing on the low tier characters. Man imagine seeing the whole cast at tournaments. All they need to do is buff three more people.

Do it right Capcom.
