I know I play Balrog but I goddamn hate Laura. It's not even that's she good, my brain can't handle her gameplan no matter what. I lose just as often to her now as I did in S2.0 and S1.

Yup. Laura's whole style just breaks my brain. Hate her so much.

 

[lucebuce12]

Wow

I played Urien bc his reflectors were fun, honest lol

Urien's fine cause of his thong. Also his general playstyle isn't annoying to play against unlike Laura.

Yup. Laura's whole style just breaks my brain. Hate her so much.

BOOM. That's how you start the fight and finish it quickly.

 

[Ucchedavāda]

Wow

It's one of those things where we have to spot the fake.

The trick is

to shoot them both.

 

[ScraftyDevil]

Y'know what's bizarre? I struggle so much vs. Laura when I play as Mika, but my fledging Ed (Fl-Ed-gling?) can steamroll those same Lauras without too much difficulty. Could just be new character syndrome or the addition of an invincible reversal preventing them from going completely ham, but in my anecdotal experience Ed's one of the few character I play who's not free to Laura.

I like to play Alex cause eh can powah bomb and isnt afraid of anything.

 

[lucebuce12]

I used to like playing Honda because he was like Alex, only better in every possible way.

I think it's the invincible reversal. Although they aren't identical, I never had trouble with Abel in SF4 but I played Dudley who had EX DP to gain some breathing room.

Anything can be a jojo reference,

It must be the work of an enemy stand!

Never seen JoJo, it gets brought up a lot tho lol

Maybe I shpuld seek it out? if I wanna be one the kool kidz xD

As someone who is really not a big fan of anime, I really enjoyed JoJo's. It was recommended to me by people in this very thread actually.

I used to like evil/boss characters but nowadays I just like fireballs for some reason. I even like just laying down Birdie's ground stuff because it's mad fun. It's not necessarily zoning in general but just like the application of a fireball.

I'll probably just stick with a shitty Urien lel

Birdie's can is actually better than a fireball

Ed ain't free to Laura, but I don't think he wins the match at all. She can blow up his fireball and v-trigger easy if she got a bar, and if you fuck up and get your ex psycho upper blocked you might as well put your fightstick down.

 

[MCD250]

I play Cammy because I thought her bomb ass normals would help me improve my fundamentals. I really grew to like her as a character as time went on though. It's funny because I was never that big on her in the old games.

Hahaha!

Right. Your fundamentals.

 

[ElFly]

Birdie's projectiles not counting as fireballs is such such bullshit

also Rashid's VTrigger

bull

shit

 

[bob_arctor]

Worst part is that I stopped maining Mika cuz my best friend and SF sparring partner bitched and moaned about her all the time whenever we played. Meanwhile, he's still using Laura to this day.

I think she has some trouble dealing with his hit-and-run style though; especially in neutral where she can't safely charge a Thunderclap or try to start V-Skill shenanigans for fear of getting nailed by a Psycho Knuckle or V-Skill from across the screen. EX Upper isn't a be-all, end-all ofc but the threat of its presence forces her to add more layers to her oki game and increases the chances of her guessing wrong and losing her pressure, which makes it a better disruptive tool for the matchup than anything Mika has in her arsenal.

 

[mbpm1]

I played kolin bc kounters are kool
So are footsies

Butt is a bonus

 

[Zombegoast]

Rashid needs the free corner carry. Why should Nash and Cammy have the option to punish a raw V-trigger?

 

[CountBlack]

yea I agree that Laura needs buffs

 

[MCD250]

It is extremely annoying that you can't get through Rashid's V-Trigger with projectile invincibility anymore tbh.

Right. Your fundamentals.

She's buff in a lot of ways.

[lucebuce12]

Capcpom knows what the public wants.

Going for a white gakuran uniform that's reminiscent of Kyosuke Kagami (shout-outs to Rival Schools!), Nash looks just as ready to hit the books as he does a crush counter. He also sports a hall-monitor sash that shouts, ”skip class at your peril, punk."

Butt is a bonus

I do miss that nice butt.

Guess that character is delayed. I ain't never gonna win EVO.

Did they even release the last 3?

 

[MrCarter]

Not gonna lie. Mika looks very good in those glasses.

 

[HardRojo]

Did they add some nerfs to Urien's EX tackle? No one can really complain about it now, it's average.

 

[TheSpoiler]

No. Still haven't released Ed yet either.

 

[Edzi]

Still better than average, but at least he's -2 now on block.

 

[BlitzKeeg]

I'm a fan as well. All of those look pretty good.

Letting her hair hang low with thick specs, friendship bracelets and sensible shoes, R. Mika takes a leaf out of the traditional sailor-style school uniform that can be seen in Japan. Here’s hoping that Nadeshiko still recognizes her during recess.

That's not the only thick thing going on.

It seems like the costume team (concept artists and 3D artists) are running efficiently since we're seeing costumes on a bimonthly basis. If only the character team was running that well. Considering we've heard nothing about Abigail I think its safe to assume that he'll be coming in July and that every other character is delayed as well.

 

[LakeEarth]

Can Urien still reflect it? That's all I care about.

 

[HardRojo]

Its armor feels really weird now, I used to just throw it out to get closer, but it keeps getting stuffed now. Might be just a matter of perception, but still, it doesn't feel as useful as before (not taking into account the -2 on block, which is a nerf I totally agree with).

 

[Blueblur1]

School girl clothes aside, this alt makes Mika look like Fuudo. There's gotta be a dark hair color to complete the look. lol

Edit: Its mostly the glasses.

It never had armor. You have to use vskill for that.

[MCD250]

The infinite wisdom of giving a character whose default costume is a school uniform an alternate costume that is also a school uniform.

Can Urien still reflect it? That's all I care about.

Of course, for maximum trolling purposes.

 

[MCD250]

Oh, couple more things:

1) How gay do you think Mika was in high school? Pretty gay, right?

2) Odds are, Charlie probably went to school in the US, right? Would have been neat if they'd given him an American private school type uniform.

 

[TheSpoiler]

Recent hentai has shown me that Mika loves everyone.
