Daigo did tear up Topanga:



but I think I'd like to see Snake Eyez take it.

ph blake

I want to be super boring and say Fuudo, but draw in the bracket is actually super fucking hard.

Bonchan, then probably Infiltration, then most likely Daigo is rough.

Diago plays E. Ryu so now he is never boring.

The match where he gets eliminated by JohnChoi(I think?) is probably one of my favorite matches of all time, just for how Choi explains how he beats Diago.

ph blake

Nuckledu or Chu Chu winning would be hilarious just for the inevitable butthurt.

Brolo

chu chu is an unknown for me, which is probably a pretty big advantage going into a tourney like this

I was talking more about how its a boring prediction because Daigo just won Topanga and he's Daigo.

although i don't find daigo's e.ryu at all exciting. i haven't seen him go for a lot of the gutsy and abusive stuff e.ryu can do, instead it seems he plays him as just ryu fundamentals + cr.mk fadc combos . maybe that's changed

Kilroy

e.ryu is one of the most boring characters in the game

cr.mk fadc combo, one mixup, stun, round over, repeat

Kilroy

watching e.ryu in ultra is like watching cammy in ae2012 to me

Radius

We've seen 2 Dudley/El Fuerte grand finals now, right?

It's only downhill from here anyways.

Knob

PR Rog wins the entire thing with a pocket Dee Jay

BREAK THE INTERNET

P10

momochi's doing a tutorial series
this one's pretty basic but his other one on option selects in more advanced so i think it'll be a mix

THESPOOKY

EXTREME RUMOR WARNING from the guy who apparently called Decapre as the 5th Ultra char? Some of it seems plausible, some seems goofy

Time / Weather effects in stages (i can see it already)

Release date : 2016, before the end of the fiscal year.

Unreal Engine 4

The new mechanic is named V-Trigger : You can change your stance.

16 characters (with future updates, see below)

No Super Street Fighter 2X + EX (Updates kinda like League of Legends / Killer Instinct)

The story mode will be way much better, they know they fucked up with sf4.

The PC version is here mostly because they want to bring the game to Latin America, South Asia, Africa...

Radius

16 characters?

I have to revise my list.

(Honda is the first cut)

THESPOOKY

take it with a whole salt shaker

The whole video "leaking" these "details" was in French, one commenter said 16 characters is never even brought up in it

Radius

nope, too late, you posted it so it must be true

Transporter

Yeah, I'd call bullshit on that, specifically the stance thing.

It looks like a mechanic that you activate and it turns on EX moves while burning meter, most likley.

THESPOOKY

I want V-Trigger to be real so we can get commentary variations on "PULL THE V-TRIGGER"

Radius

blow it too early and you were V-Trigger Happy

Big Red Tie

pull... the calamity trigger

vagrant_winds

Messing around in DBFC.

It's kinda funny that half the cast is using legit shonen/superpower moves while the other half of the cast are lethal joke characters movelist wise throwing out the most random shit imaginable.

I don't because you know there will be a variation of

"He has a license to pull the V-Trigger.

It's printed on his V-Card."

But he's a world warrior :sad:

TY for the new wallpaper, Excellent Adventures Holiday Edition.

Brolo

Kwality.

hrm

Wimble

that poster looks like it was made in the 90s

Wimble

oh also I think if Momochi picks Juri and beats Snake he can win the whole thing

but the safe bet is Daigo I suppose

I also think Nishikin has a good chance

Kilroy

I saw a video of poison optimization tips, and 90% of it was stuff that I was already doing

feels good

TheStig

Man I was hoping they would go with a different art direction in sf5. I'm over the arkham asylum swole beast look

WearingGlasses

SFV Ryu looks just as swole as SF3 Ryu to me, though. We may need more pictures.

Mr. G

Harada says he's now removing Lucky Chloe from the US release of Tekken 7 because you complained too much

The character will now be East Asia and Europe exclusive

Knob

Harada loves throwing hissy fits on twitter

This isn't going to happen, and if it does then that's a ridiculously stupid precedent he just set for himself.

I actually wouldn't mind if she didn't make it into the us version. Not because she ruined tekken or any ridiculous shit like that, but because I guarantee low level online will be 90% Chloe players just like Jun and Asuka in ttt2, and she looks to be capo-esque, and ain't no one want to deal with that mess.

Knob

Its supremely awful for international competition though, really a bad idea. And if he actually sticks to the decision out of some kind of 'well maybe you shouldn't bitch about my stuff on the internet', that isn't going to make the people who are bitching feel bad. They're going to feel like they won and can get what they want by being loudmouths online. Regardless of how I feel about the character, or early footage, or the amount of hitsparks, or super moves or armor moves or any of this stuff, I'm still gonna buy it, because I love tekken. And so are the guys bitching, because obviously they care. When t5 was gearing up to release, everyone freaked the fuck out about the crush system, because holy shit they turned our game into street fighter oh man tekken sucks now and look at these new characters yuck game is doomed. And we all still played tekken. Its fine. I might find jpop idol horseshit extremely uncomfortable and weird, but it ain't like I can't still play King or Kazuya or possibly Bruce or Paul or whatever.

Not only is it awful for competition, it was hinted that Lucky Chloe was a trans* character. These SJWs/skeletons harassed Harada and essentially petitioned to remove trans* representation from games.

I wanted her in, even if her design seemed oddly bland for a Tekken character. She seemed more like a Virtua Fighter style character, as if Virtua Fighter tried to create an idol character.

My only issue's on Lucky Chloe is that her moveset looked like the most infuriating thing. Lot's of auto-hopping/Auto-ducking with hardknockdowns tied to them sounds like a pain in the ass.

I mean the idol thing is....annoying, but that dosen't even register on the bad character design scale, even for Tekken(QUE FAN-VOTED IN VAMPIRE WITH GROWING TITS, on TOP of being robbed of the majesty that is Just a Salmon and Suddenly Female Paul).

I didn't hear about the Trans thing, that's a goddamn shame that shitheels are going to be shitheels.

But yeah, echoing, removing a character for a region is never good.

STILL mad about no Suddenly Female Paul.

Knob

I will say this: at least Chloe is interesting. I think Claudio and Katarina/Catalina/whichever are both pretty bland. Chloe at least stands out.
