Yea, the grab range is still the same, it still catches me from a distance if I throw out a standing kick with Bison. I don't see anything different with Zangief. His damage on the SPD is very minor that it's pretty close to being unnoticeable. I'm glad CAPCOM is being active with Volt by keeping the hackers/cheaters out of the leaderboards.
I guess Makoto got some nice buffs. She's a lot faster. Ran into one that stood toe to with my gief. Had to eventually switch to Abel to gain the upperhand.
I dunno, doing a lot of jumpiness against Gief and I land almost next to him and he does a throw that whiffs and we are quite literally shoulder to shoulder. As for the tier list, we might as well start over given the extreme changes made. I think the nerfs to Sagat actually make it WAYYY better match for Blanka than before (even with Blanka's nerfs), while the nerf to Honda's headbutt really changes the Blanka v Honda chemistry a lot. ...and these are just from the perspective of one character! I'm sure the cast changed a lot.
Ok ill change viper and bison, but I thought honda was a terrible match for blanka. Obviously its a bit better now with the headbutt nerf, but still.
Yeah this list is completely new. So sagat-Blanka 5-5? How about sagats other matchups? I always thought viper beat him but squall said that sagat wins purely because of damage. Edit: @Everyone feel free to drop a comment about the tier list anytime, Im trying to make this as accurate as possible and I'll update it every week.
Anyone feel like a few matches? I doubt I'm on a level with a lot of players here, (I tend to hover at 400-600bp) but I'm fed up with ranked right now.
Hi all finally managed to update. Can someone advise what's with the team battle thingy? I clicked it and it opens to a website but what's next?
GG spooner, surprising we met on ranked. I hope you recognised my terrible input lag judging from me not doing ANYTHING after your miss-canon spikes. I couldn't. It was horrible man, but your Cammy is offencive as always, good performance !
Haha same, the lag was so bad, i didnt even mean to do some of them. I think vegas a character who really suffers from lag though.
what happened to C. Viper, yyhakusho? EDIT: GGs... your C. Viper is beast! Sorry, have to go. Working on something..
Well.. Sagat is still ridicolous, Cody seems to be the new Blanka, Ryus shoryuken can still rofl at every single attack e honda does, my Fei Long seems to be very strong and Yun is still useless. Why cant i grab+combo spam under my super anymore? What did get buffed on Yun? Over all, im so SICK of Sagats.
Yuns actually good now, I think he was always good but nobody was playing him right. But he just does more damage now, especially his throw. What do you mean you cant grab + combo spam. If you mean his command grab, you have a few options after it. Easiest one is low punch-upkicks. For more damage you can back + kick-shoulder-lunge punch, but you have to link the back + kick. This actually does 256 damage, 4 less than zangiefs spd! Then you can do low punch-shoulder- super if you have it. And lastly you can do back + kick-ultra. Funnily enough that works on anybody except another yun. But yun is definitley a decent character, the key is knowing his meaty palm setups, lots of tick throws, lots of safe divekicks on wakeup, abusing his standing kick and knowing when to keep the pressure on, and when to back off and play a bit more cautious.
