    I feel like Japan doesn't know the Rose matchup.

    Naw I think its more because this character received a large amount of buffs with literally no nerfs. She benefits a ton from delayed wake up. Look how far Filipinoman got. He's good but not top 16 at Evo good.

    Is she overpowered? Not even close. Other characters just suck so much because the balancing process was clearly rushed for the game to come out on time for Evo. Combofiend pretty much admitted they raised E.Ryu's health so newer players can pick him up i.e scrubby buffs.

    Rose still has bad match ups she easily loses to Yun and Rufus which Luffy did not encounter at all.

    IMO The only bullshit Rose honestly has is her backdash combined with her backwards walkspeed. In a game where backdashes have invincibility having great distance changes a lot. Delayed wake up is also responsible for the large amount of Time Overs we saw

    Rose backdash is nothing new though. The fact it can't be OSed by a lot of characters makes me definitely agree with you. Her damage is incredible off easy bnb hit confirms and c. mp as well.

    But Fuudo honestly looked lost in the match and missed a good amount of punishes. Bonchan changed his fireball strategy after giving her full super at the start of the round 2 games straight. They "know" the match but there seemed to be some knowledge gaps.

    Both of you are correct. What's worse is the JPs wanted to buff her even further. It really shows that there's a bit of a knowledge gap when you want to make an already solid character practically top tier.

    It's all about the pink and the blue.

    M: You are largely seen as the best Rose player in the world. For how long have you been playing her, and why have you chosen her, specifically?

    L: I've been playing Rose since I started playing the game. I chose Rose right away because of the size of her breasts and her costume colors, pink and blue are my favorite.

    Filipinoman eliminated Haitani's Rufus, and didn't Luffy beat Justin's Rufus in a prior tournament before? It's probably true for Yun though, but that's because Yun is so good.

    Won because of lack of matchup knowledge, same shit we saw last year in GF between Tokido and Xian. Fuudo and Bonchan obviously lacked the full story on the Rose matchup.

    At the same time, pretending her backdash isn't absolutely ridiculous is just being dumb. But people already touched on this so no point in continuing down that road.

    Yup, and meanwhile Luffy got to play against Ryan Hart and Europe has very good Fei Longs with Evans and Starnab.

    I'm not saying he didn't earn it, but his opponents definitely helped him out.

    this... i wish snake had lariat'd more on those forward dashs. "i dont have to guess but you will have to block". Just 1 or 2 of these would been nice to persuade him from doing it.

    Sitting next to Combofiend on my flight, laughing about Hawk's gun and his fascination with Azrael, he apparently missed the memo on him being top tier because he didn't get why people could cheer for a Litchi in GF.
