Man, you had me excited to read about Mike Z not writing from a designers perspective, until I got to that last sentence and realized oh he ended up sounding like what I didn't want anyways.

I enjoyed this article, too; enjoyed it more than Sirlin's, for what it's worth, but both are good reads.
I still enjoy Xrd even if it does take steps back from Accent Core. I don't mind the Yellow Roman Cancel stuff, and I'm indifferent to Danger Time and the Hell Fire mechanic. One thing that I particularly enjoyed from the article was Mike Z discussing the easier inputs not being across the board.
I still echo your sentiment. When I played I-No, and found out that her Chem Love special was changed to a quarter circle back motion, I found myself enjoying the character much more, but not every character has these input changes. Heck, even May's command throw got changed from a half circle back to a half circle back+forward motion, which baffles me. Some got easier, some got more difficult.
I'd settle for Potemkin Buster being turned into quarter circle back+dust, same with May's Overhead Kiss. These changes may yet happen, but I won't hold my breath. Until then, just gotta work on that muscle memory?

After reading Sirlin's and this blog I'm interested in the YRC burst bait. It's unfortunate it makes Burst baits less special when done with YRC. As for Hellfire I don't know why its in the game. Maybe they wanted to offset being vulnerable to IKs but IKs are hard to land.
Ahhh, you think the darkness is your ally. You merely adopted the darkness... I was born in it... molded by it.
That actually sounds accurate. However, its not worth the money since the quality is always piss poor. Lapchi running this tournament?

I like this. All of his points are supported pretty well.
Daigo needs to recover his powers when he gets drunk and calls out everybody, it uses up a lot of meter.
