Well, despite the thread title, I do think Aki is fixed.  Her jab....  😄 

I know it's not going to happen but I wish Ryu and Luke could swap spots in the tier list.  Ryu is the true poster boy and deserves to be S tier for a change.  

Problem is that Luke is literally just better Ryu in virtually every way. They made not understand this when they created Luke, but his moveset was made to basically make Ryu irrelevant. So you'd either have to rework what Luke is supposed to be doing or juice the hell out of Ryu.
 
Not really sure what you do TBH.

Hey man, how about we check in on DNF Duel, that game got an unfair shake at life:
 
Oh, looks like Camelot is still a silly place. 😂
 

You don't want to run sets against Boosie Fade Jin?
 
 

The games that established it, i'm fine with. Not sure that its something I'd like to see in an SF game though. Feels like in 2D games where there's projectiles and making things look off is already a strategy it'd be like putting a hat on a hat. Big reason why I never liked the Blanka-Chan costume; makes Blanka weird to fight.
 
 

I am  most likely in the minority, but I dislike the customization options in Tekken 8.  
 
I want my characters and the ones I'm facing to LOOK like the character that has been selected.  
 
I'm glad Capcom allowed us to block outfits online.  I wish they gave us more flexibility in that we could turn off outfits instead of having to always select a default one, but for now it works.  
 
I have Ken and Blanka set to their default costume because their 3rd outfits are just so dumb and don't look like the character they are.

Rewatching some of Uma's matches, since I've been missing them due to the late hour and I must say the spaced out Drive Reversal bait is such an awesome technique. Literally no one had any response to it and is probably the one plus that gave him an edge against his opponents. Just amazing.
 
I have no doubt it's going to become a staple of SF6 moving forward, cause I can't imagine anyone watching his matches not wanting it in their arsenal. At least if other characters can pull it off as consistently well as Juri, cause that's probably going to be a big limiting factor.

Seems a small update coming with Ed, larger rebalance still planned:
 
 

Juri winning Capcom Cup. Props to Uma, he played really well. And, most importantly, Luke did not win

Can't believe I watched SF6 for 7 hours straight yesterday.
 
Good stuff though.

UMA played awesome.  Surprised a Juri won with all those Luke's to go through.  Was hilarious when Rob tried to take the trophy and he wouldn't let go 😂

But at the cost of feet sniffers being happy.
 
Pyrrhic Victory at best.

UMA in Grand Finals with Juri.  Hoping he takes it!

I only have one wish for this Capcom Cup, fam. Just ONE wish.
 
 
 
Please don't let it be a Luke v Luke grand finals.
