    I was thinking Elizabeth Holmes personally but that was in the same vein. 
     
    Side Note: Everyone check out @EvilCanadian's youtube channel. I only got to see one of his videos early this morning. I haven't had a chance to see the rest since I'm at work but he got some in depth coverage on the single player modes of MK1. I'm sure the rest of the video's he mentioned the story preview video have dropped by now.

    I think they tried to buff command grabs in this game by buffing the damage a lot, it's the highest damage from command grabs in a while, but they also make you lose all oki on top of being just inherently risky to attempt compared to how effective regular Drive Rush pressure is, so it still doesn't work out apparently.

    After watching Luffy getting manhandled at this event, and being pretty unimpressed with Idom too, and seeing the absolute state of Lily and the fact that Zangief might as well not be in the game with how many times he's been sighted, I've come to conclusion that there isn't anything wrong with any of these characters in particular but I think it's the whole archetype that's crippled in VI.
     
    The only effective use of command grabs I'm seeing is from characters like Marisa, Blanka, JP, Honda, maybe even Jamie even if he got other issues, because those characters have gameplans that don't rely on command grabs and thus can use the ones they have as surprise move to get people scared. Gimmicks, basically. Marisa forcing you to twitch and eat more of her knuckle sandwiches, Blanka closing out matches with that dumb hop of his you'll mistake for another of his hundreds of dumb moves, JP jump-scaring you because he can, that sort of stuff.
    Characters who have to constantly threaten and use their command grabs to win tho, I haven't seen much success from them. I straight up don't remember Lily landing a grab in this event at all, although I'm probably wrong. I definitely remember seeing Luffy getting punished for trying to landing grabs way more than ever landing them.
     
    Command grabs still have the huge recovery they were given mid-way through SFV, because SFV was all about being in your face and grapplers could get really snow-bally with V-Trigger, but in VI it's Drive Rush to be king, and Drive Rush makes a lot of characters able to go for heavily damaging mixups and be plus if they're wrong. Grapplers' Drive Rushes universally suck and they still die if they guess wrong. There's no reason to pick a grappler if you only care about competition because everyone else has safer, better roads to damage.
     
    Not that I really care personally because Manon is fun to use and everyone can win with anything online. I'm the guy who switched from Cammy to Falke when she was released, because she was fun and she somehow carried me to Diamond while she was labelled the worst character in the game and Cammy was Rashid tier. There's no low tierdom that scares or concerns me.
     
    It's just that I also like watching the characters I play in tournaments, and Luffy is dropping Manon after this and I expect Idom to follow very soon.
