The Slick Tony

It was more limited than I thought it would be but, I dig what Ed's presence adds to the story. I certainly didn't have, "Balrog has the most character development in Street Fighter", on my bingo card.

The dialogue you get from leveling up mastery/bond is fantastic. So many little lore tidbits - like Edmond not being Honda's name, to Gief dragging a submarine 🤣. Oh, my favorite is the fact that Chun-Li and Ryu went with Guile once on one of his trips to Nash's grave. They're actually friends. Also, to add fuel to the CaC speculation from a few pages back, Manon actually goes on a long winded speech how we are a freak of nature. She is absolutely flabbergasted how we can train in different styles for a short amount of time and learn so much while it has taken extreme dedication for her to master Judo. Maybe there is something up with the CaC 🕵️‍♂️?

Ok *exhales violently* after sparing against all 18 masters after maxing out their styles, I compiled a list of the levels they are at when they are sparing 'seriously" instead of just training you. These might be where Capcom considers them to be: Blanka - Lvl 65 Cammy - Lvl 65 Chun-Li - Lvl 65 Dee Jay - Lvl 62 Dhalsim - Lvl 69 E.Honda - Lvl 65 Guile - Lvl 68 Jamie - Lvl 67 JP - Lvl 68 Juri - Lvl 66 Ken - Lvl 67 Kimberly - Lvl 64 Lily - Lvl 61 Luke - Lvl 60 Manon - Lvl 63 Marisa - Lvl 63 Ryu - Lvl 70 Zangief - Lvl 65

Tweets aren't embedding properly for some reason 😅. But, anyway, Gief pulling a submarine makes Street Fighter vs Marvel Superheroes make a lot more sense now. https://twitter.com/TheSlickTony/status/1665905666194587648?t=TGdSPcWlT6pBF8JCZ1mF3w&s=19

So, yeah, some weird dude *cough* compiled the Arcade story into two vids - one WWs & one Newcomers.

Guile is a monster... That is all.

Heads up, if you pre-ordered 6 on Xbox, you can pre-load it now.

I'm hoping S&L just goes to Max and leaves the CW behind, TBH.

God damn headlines. All I saw was that he had a second cancer diagnosis and that he had '2 or three years to live'. It didn't mention that the quote was in the past tense 🤬. Thanks for the proper article.

I don't know why, but I'm really digging the soundtrack. Even the rematch theme is a head bopper https://youtu.be/uEl4eV9A00M

After all the footage today, this is where I'm at right now Pffft, I'll just Boom him to death... DAMMIT CAPCOM!

She definitely looks unique

Ya know, say what you want about the character themes but the character select theme is a banger. https://youtu.be/Y31M_h_2Wxw

I think the demo build is definitely different from the beta. Played a bit of versus yesterday and I think Ryu's B&Bs do slightly less damage now. Also, I don't think you can combo off of his Denjin-enhanced QCB+P with a raw Drive Rush anymore. Or the timing is much stricter.

Awesome! Gonna call up my pop and see if he wants to throwdown.

It's nice to see someone who knows how pipelines work.

Quick question for those with the dummy quick internet that already DL'd the Demo: Is the Vs. Mode 1 player only or can 2 play?

Good thing I still have my PS4 hooked up 😅.

Like Fei Long, obviously.

I'I'm thinking that Mena's got this. He's playing too well for either Zhen or iDom to beat him 6 times.

Momochi 😢.

Ahhhhhh, so 69% of the internet. Thanks for the 411.

It all makes sense now... Side Note: I'm going to only ask this once - As an internet 'old man', the fuck is a coomer?

Merry Xmas ya pack of ne'er-do-wells. You better be using them Santa alts and Christmas stages in SFV 😉.
