Glad to see my predictions from day 2 Sephiroth were correct about Sephiroth: he got worse offline and has settled in just behind his protagonist viability-wise, despite this thread disagreeing with me. Joker is still a great character. No opinion on blockhead or Dabuzs opinion on its...

Got it from a discord but now I can't find it. Ok well disregard then, sorry for the noise. ☹️

Namco bandai just announced a remake of Tales of Symphonia. I get the idea that if that whole Disney character thing hadn't worked out, Lloyd was the plan B. I think he was also the #1 most requested character in Japan, with Sora second. Huh. Timelines...

Yes! I don't know of anyone CV fan who didn't at least try Bloodstained

Bayo was #1 in Europe and top 5 in another regions. Of the realizable characters. Soras got so much Smash4 in his trailer I'm wondering things.

Rage increases knockback ("KB"). Hitstun is a pure function of KB. (A flat 40% of KB units = the #/frames, at least until dust trails are left by the victim when the hitstun and flyaway are played in fast-forward for Ultimate's signature "balloon" effect.) Autocombos, on all except their final...

That's a good point. His counter effectively has two ripostes, one of which is frame 1. Yeah, and I feel its weird that Sora is a bit lighter than expected for a human character, and also, that they'd specifically call that out in the initial showcase. Is Sora an offensive powerhouse? Maybe...

Capcom is in there with 3 characters across 2 franchises. Cap ain't saying a GODdamn thing. 🤐

Congrats y'all on defeating the final boss lawyers and proving to the rest of us that anything's possible. All my picks have been in for awhile now, but I'm really enjoying all the sincere YouTube reaction vids. You're adorable! 🥰

Idk, do spells cut short his upward momentum? If so I agree Blizzaga might be the best choice. But man, that dj really sends him to the moon. I literally Laughed Out Loud when I saw it. Sakurai showed us this strike/throw mixup vs Jiggs, but, spotdodge beats both. Again, with enough...

Good post. For a character who spends a lot of time airborne he doesn't seem to have much to strike beneath him. Stall n fall dairs tend to have heavy landing lag, and his side-b does too. Thunder doesn't seem to reach downward either. So Sora will be going to the ledge a lot. But how does...

I'm too old to have any attachment to this Mickey Mouse franchise, but Sora seems like he'd be... really natural to play as? You know, like the opposite of a Kazuya. I may main this character just on the gameplay alone. Marthcina-style edgeguarding: just jump offstage and press f-air, a lot...

It's a lazy rainy Sunday (and I'm de-stressing from GG:Strive) so I'm replying to a 10-day-old post. I disagree. We should absolutely take roster size into account when deciding how balanced or not a game is. I'd say the entire point of balancing is seeing the whole roster, in tourney...

I've always been impressed by how this doesn't happen more often. Just thinking about weighing how much money I as a TO would have to put out on choosing a venue that's not too big to break the bank & make the event feel empty but not too small to prevent this kind of disaster stresses me out to...

of course Sol is a pad player. 😒
