Do you want SFIV Cody? or Omega Mode Cody?
That last match where he's just spamming crouching jab, how itazan must feel.

With Abigail and Menat, S2 is truly a dark time for Gief players

Good. First it was Mika for nerfs, now it's Gief for MUs. One day it'll be Laura's turn.
This is delicious to see, on the other hand, I want to see some Menat vs Koleen matches, in theory Menat shouldn't be able to even hit her.
I totally expect that at least one of those characters to make into the game eventually.
I'm thinking that maybe they'll stick to representing each SF game/series and FF in future seasons. So maybe we'll see one of those characters as soon as Season 3.
Side note: Mr. S has said there are 3 newcomers still in the works it seems possible.
Why?! Kolin suffer hard against projectile zooning and long reach, only thing in Kolin's favor is Menat's defense once she gets in!
Because Menat isn't "projectile" zoning. Kolin can counter Menat's orb normals like she can Dhalsim's limbs. And her V-Skill shuts them all down, as well. Same reason why Sim has trouble against Kolin.
Menat can't poke for shit against those counters, she can't do anything at all.

Isn't using counters a bit risky though? You can easily eat a CC if you time it wrong/use the wrong one.
Might not do so much damage but the amount of free V-meter you're giving her can definitely add up.

They should probably remove counterhit off counter/parry recoveries. They're already risky enough.
I'd also like them to take V-Meter gain off of CCs and maybe just make the player getting hit by CC lose V-Meter/gain none from the hit.
That's why I'd like to see how two pros would play that match up out, on paper Koleen definetely has better tools to deal with the usual Menat strategy but there is the meter building and counter baits to consider.

Then you have characters who, like Bison, can't use their vskill all the time and rely on the small cc boosts to get up there, so that doesn't work out imo.

I don't really believe in MVCI rumors at all. TWO BOF, REGINA, 13 CHARACTERS for next year, etc. Sound good to be true for me!
However, I do think it's plausible that we could get C. Viper, Q, Oro and Necro for free along with SSFV update. Mainly for two reasons which is 1) they have been rumored to be in the game ever since last year or so (along with Sakura and Sagat) and 2) they wouldn't sell very well if they are part of Season 3 (or any) so they are way better off being free characters to given to the fans.
Seriously, take everything with grain of salts tho but I see that people dont' believe in this rumor which is good thing in my book.
See you later when we finally get her in Street Fighter VI

Shelving Bison for a little bit. Too young. Can't even confirm my crmps into anything

He's my main. I need to stop playing carelessly​ with him though. crMP is pretty good on it's own. He's the only character I really want to play as. Well, Birdie too.
Might be similar to FANG's fireballs, she just deflects them in to the ground.
Zoning isn't the right word, but between Menat's orb pressure and VT, that's way more projectiles than Kolin would like to deal with. Unlike Sim, who has to use normals to keep characters away Menat can mix it with horizontal fireballs, that and Menat punishes for blocked/whiffed V-Skill are far better than Sim's. Even day 2 or 3 Menat with no VT tech outside basic combos gives Kolin a hard time with her fireball pressure:

Oh, and Menat is another character that can safely punish Kolin's ex-icicles...
If Oro and Q are announced simultaneously I would be ecstatic.
You're in this thread enough to know this is fake
One free character would be unlikely, four free characters is impossible.
I don't get all these hopeful, fan-pleasing fake leaks. The real leaks are always the ones that are underwhelming and a little weird.

I suppose. I guess we will see.
That's my thought process as well. Unfortunately....
Damn.
Nah, Kolin's vskill alone destroys Menat.

Not even exaggerating, that's the best Menat art I've seen. It doesn't sexualize her and I love just how colourful it all is and makes her look regal.

He's super fun, I just need to confirm stuff more often because I'm leaving damage on the table. He can be super wild and crazy, and his EX Ball is kinda nasty on some characters.
If it helps, I've gotten in the habit of mistiming my attacks to catch dudes trying to swing while being jusssst outside their range. Helps me catch them on an errant attack

Yeah I do that... not even really consciously, I just don't make an effort to go out of my way to include it (I did a NieR Automata piece too and again found no rhyme or reason to include 2B, admittedly excellent, ass
)Anyways, been lovely seeing vids of Menat in action, curious how pro players will handle her.
I'm apprehensive of the leak too but I don't think it's completely out of the realms of possibility of getting a couple characters since we can technically obtain them for free with FM anyway - which no other company does.

f.HP x st.MP x L. Flash chop
cr.LP(x2) or cr.LK x cr.LP x L. Flash Chop
j.HP x st.HP x M. Flash Chop or L. Slash Elbow
j.HK x st.HP (or use f.HP) x M. Flash Chop or L. Slash Elbow
Basically run through his trials and most of those are BnBs with some counter hit stuff.
St.MP x Flash chop or elbow and cr.lp(x2) x Flash chop are his best BnBs tho.

Trial 2s usually have some decent BnBs.
On another note, I did all of Bison's trials fairly easily. Kinda proud of myself even though they were easy for the average SF player.
