Fighting Games Weekly | January 21-27 | Apologies and Crucifixion

Problem is, Dorm is his best character. He's better off using a team built around Dorm than a Firebrand team that looks suboptimal.

Dorm was not his best character (that belongs to ammy) and Firebrand/Dorm/Ammy is not as optimal or is as good as Firebrand/Doom/Ammy. The Doom Ammy shell is what it is and Firebrand actually has a neutral assist this time. He uses plasma beam in conjunction with Demon Missile M for that approach.
 
Yoruichi had Ginei-jin. Top tier for sure.
Tatsuki best troll character.

First fighting games I seriously learned. Even wrote FAQs for them (that are probably laden with horribly inaccurate FG terminology, heh).

I remember a Super Turbo FAQ that referred to juggles as "the volleyball effect." It's not really inaccurate since it was written before people had started calling them juggles, but it's funny reading it years later.
 
In the JP version of the first game, Kenpachi had an invincible tracking teleport with no start-up or recovery that could be used in rapid succession by mashing on the touchscreen. He also had a super that allowed any of his normals to temporarily chain in any order and a chargeable special that could extend the reach of all of his sword attacks to near fullscreen, which was hilarious in conjunction with power-up cards that allowed infinite super meter for a very short duration of time (and that couldn't be disabled in ranked matches).

To this day, barring Mugen, I have yet to find anything more broken in a fighting game than that.

Honorable mentions go to Ishida (stackable hyper armor special with no meter cost), Yachiru (couldn't hit her), Soifon (ninjas EVERYWHERE), Aizen (kido normals lol), and infinites all over the place.

jesus christ Adam Sandler might voice Rocket Raccoon in some movie:

But here is the kicker. Marvel is going after some big comedic actors perhaps for some comedic relief in the movie. Exactly how big?
Marvel is asking for the availability of both Jim Carrey AND Adam Sandler!
For what roles, I’m not sure. Maybe Rocket or Groot? Jim Carrey I can see since he is already playing Colonel Stars & Stripes in Kick Ass 2, but Happy Gilmore (Adam Sandler) in a Marvel movie?!
 
Wow, they finally fixed Dudley's SSB and it's for SFxT -_-

That's ok God's it's a good game.

Glad Bryan is better now, but they nerfred Dudley's damage, that was ok before, but not overpowered ¬¬

And MAN, Sakura canceling her fierce is insane!

I think they just wanted to kill the damage on his loop. Which was stupidly high.


The dumbest change though is the julia stuff by far. Specially cause of some of the buffs other characters are getting

Capcom doesn't know the difference between adjusting and making it useless...

But yes, it's a great game. I really hope community gives it another chance. Next Level will have a SfxT tournament on the next Wednesday, so let's see.
 
$20, but, since the game is pretty cheap now, you'll not spend that much buying both

I spent full retail on the special edition and now I gotta spend another $20? Fucking Capcom..... And the sad part is if you want to play SFxT you need the DLC character so you can learn the match ups.

Unlike UMVC3 where only like 5 people actually use Jill, and Shuma so I still haven't bought that shit because quite frankly I don't need it.

It is like $30 in Australia...
