I said top mid, I kinda meant it like being a good character and not shitty...

everyone's damage got hella toned down, we were discussing the game alot today in casuals and some guy was talking alot about how the game seems like not a lot of characters have good reversal options because mashing out reversal moves get stuffed by meatys and shit like that... more like setting them up in offense... he said something about how the makers of ssf4 wanted to make a diff game that wasnt so dp dependant and that usually top tier characters are the ones with good reversals that do alot of damage so they are trying to change that...

that's all personal opinion by the way

dude juri is nasty tho like seriously she looks "too" good, her rushdown is crazy and she can still zone too

ibukiiiiii reset madness!
been playing with her a lot, and will keep doing it at least until my execution becomes good enough to connect TC to U2 24/7

Juri seems to be mid high but thats only until you get the right distance for a safe crossup since her qcb.k doesnt hit in the back, and if he does an ex version is unsafe as hell.. Dudley is a bad ass mother fucker, and i really think he will be top tier.

i also like the way makoto performs in this game too, her dashes are too good

its a shame that they kinda nerfed akuma, he doesnt do the same damage now, and the loop is waaay too hard (i havent been able to do it once, while in SFIV i was able to connect it like 9 out of 10). i wonder if it is still in the game

on a side note... I wanna see how poongko will play with ryu since this shit is all rushdown... he'll be hella entertaining to watch...

Who do you think Daigo will play?

nah sagat and ryu etc reversals are still very good

you can throw juri out of ex pinwheel. zangief final atomic buster'd me out of a reversal ex pinwheel. dudley normal threw me out. hakan u1'd me out. you can also just straight beat it with certain meaty attacks.

I think guile has less charging time for sonic booms kinda like in sf2 and his fierce is godlike ... even better than before i think

I might main guile again

I havent been keeping up too much with SFIV, so excuse the noobie question - is Deejay really the only new Charger?? I like to play Chargers and the original SFIV cast already had much more shotos than chargers, but if there really is only one new charger in SSFIV there really is no incentive to get it for me.

I'm still deciding on who to main, but right now it's Adon, Ibuki, Makoto, or Ryu (my main in SF4) since I tried SSF4 at WonderCon about 2 weeks ago. Can't wait for the release, but it sucks to have 2 mid terms that week, blah.

Totally gonna play Cody first. He throws rocks and knives instead of sissy fireballs man!

Probably getting it by the end of April. Hopefully, there aren't any shortages since I didn't preorder it..

I really like the updates to a lot of the cast. Sagat even looks kinda fun from the streams. Safe sim drills make me =)))) as well.

Waiting for it to legitimately come out kills me a little more with each passing day lol, hopefully a local store will break street date or something soon xD
