I'm really excited for ultra.

I like how instead of giving dudley an option other than stand fierce or focus, they just let stand fierce combo into ultra. LOL

then use the other two bars to ex red focus the rose on wakeup
 
Ryu has a ton of ways to confirm into UC1, EX Red Focus will at least benefit some characters who don't. I do think its use will limited though, definitely not worthwhile for longer combos.

Yeah but it will cost all your super and ultra meter. If the damage is already less or equivalent than a super what's the point? What character outside of geif really benefits from this?

Assuming red focus is treated the same as focus attacks for damage scaling...won't that mean the damage is worse than just going into a super anyway? Ryu hit confirming into it for instance...

c.lp 30
c.lp 30
c.mk 48
super 210
total 318

c.lp 30
c.lp 30
c.mk 48
red focus level 1 - 36
ultra 1 maxed - 148
total 292

345 with maxed ultra 2

Or did I fuck up the scaling? ultras and FA count for two moves.

Rumor is that red focus adds no scaling.

Kawaii as fuck
 
is the ceo thing just AE?

Nah, the official lineup includes a ton of games, but that doesn't mean they'll all make it on stream obviously. Pretty much all the titles you can think of (AE 2012, UMvC3, KOFXIII, TTT2, etc.) as well as stuff like BlazBlue: Chronophantasma, Persona 4 Arena, Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R, and Capcom vs. SNK 2.
 
I can't remember the last time I've seen a tournament get a banner ad, of all things. Play-Asia's sure taking their Apex sponsorship seriously.

How come no one is there? Did they not publicize this event?

Spooky did publicize it at Battle Circuit but no one really came but now everyone is planning to reach Next Level.

KI doesn't look good at all and hearing "combo breaker" all the time is annoying.

I know its an early stage fighting game and nobody knows how to play but goddam KI looks like a bad game.

I like the style though.

Combo breakers prevent me from having any interest in the neutral game of KI.

The music in KI is fucking INCREDIBLE though. God. Damn. Still fucking amazing.

Sadira looks like a character I would play. Very nimble and tricky.

With the exception of NRS, all the fighting game companies are on the west coast. Double Helix is in Orange County, California.
Not good enough of a reason when they still do tests abroad and all over the country. PA has one for USF4.

The music is cool, but man, those combos are boring to watch after a while. I streamed it today to see how things were progressing, and it didn't take long for me to get bored. Part of it might be that everyone was picking the same few characters, though...not that they can do anything else. ;-)
 
If you beat the opponent, why drag out the combo to 50+ hits when they die in the low 10s :s?

Also, Sadira gives me an IBUKI Vibe, and Sabrewulf a Blanka vibe.

That Sabrewulf hockey helmet thing is so cool.

The model overlap hurts so much. I can't even see what the character is doing on my stream quality.
