Just wait until I decide on a main. Then I will crush you. 👊🏼

Like I've been having an easy time of things so far. 🙃

I figured you were sticking with Akatsuki since you kicked my ass with him the most. He seems really well rounded and a right fucker when he needs to be. I also appreciate him being a weirdo crossover character.

Yes, but his movement blows. He feels so stiff -- not sure if I like that.

I hear that. Laura's crappy walkspeed in SFV still hurts even though I've used her way more than anyone else at this point.

Pasting this here for reference:

Decent info for a lot of chars. Way more than the no info on them I had previously. 😁

Ahhh yes. Mizuumi is the best English-language resource for non-mainstream anime games. Sadly not all of it is as updated as it could be. =[

Sure the fuck ain't.

The Mika section is just a bunch of C&P Hyde stuff with lots of holes and no combo/tactical info. 😭

But in this modern age I'm always grateful to find anything that isn't just a bunch of pointers to discord. Nothing against discord but I can't browse that shit at work. 😛

Thread revive!

GGs @misterBee, that was a fun chunk of UNIEL! The more I play this game the more I like it.

For the characters I haven't played before:

- Merkava seems fun. He's pretty weird, but Dhalsim weird while still having some rushdown stuff. I mainly want to play him because his super is mega-Kermit-arms and it cracks me the fuck up every time I see it.

- Wagner is a fucking beast. I've seen what she can do in capable hands, and even picking her up totally fresh she feels really accessible and effective. I sort of hate her because playing against her feels so oppressive but I can't deny that she is also super fun.

- Vatista seems solid, at least compared to Hilda. Where I couldn't figure out shit with Hilda and just got murdered, Vatista was clearly also a zoner but was more accessible. Also for the life of me I couldn't figure out more than two moves with her.

- Linne seemed straightforward. Surprisingly good normals considering her little stabby dagger. Characters like her and Hyde usually don't appeal to me because they're often pretty straightforward (the Ryus and Kens of the world) but they are fun to use. Didn't to much more than mash with her but it was entertaining enough that I'd do it again.

I want to continue working on this game and trying out characters. I also want to continue to refine what I can with Nanase and Mika; my one combo I do with Nanase is okay but I can do better, and I really need to come up with something better with Mika when I get hits in.

Very much looking forward to playing more. Others should join us in the EXes. 😎
