Kinda pissed nobody is using Bob yet, especially given how god-tier he is in T6.

Right now, Juri / Poison. Both because I like the characters more than how good they are, as I said, I feel Poison is slightly lacking, she's like a Shoto -1. Juri I feel is upper mid tier, verging on top tier. Pondering putting Juri with Hwoarang tho, but I'd like to learn Xiaoyu or Julia ._.

Lol, I probably beat him 50-0 in SF4 vanilla - super days. He would always send hate mail afterwards. I wish I kept it all

Also, glad I am screwing with Kazuya for now!

more likely a Dan-1. Her SRK is horrible. I never ever got a clean anti air of it ever, with any version useing. Either it trades (most of the time) NOT in your favour (you only get the first hit that does tiny dmg while your oponent gets in a fierce lol) or it wiffs for whatever reason. Even Dans SRK was better than that shit lol. I think it has little to no invincibility because it also trades with oponents that hit you on the ground and you want to use it as a reversal (to tag someone in) but it failed for me in that case 75% of the time. Only the EX version is good (which imho is retarded because she allready needs all the meter she can get to even deal a decent amount of dmg by either tagging the partner in or for combos)

on the other hand Hugos anti air grab is retarded, got grabed full screan away while doing a neutral jump with Chun-li ¬.¬. Cant even do cannon strikes against him I get grabbed no matter what. Shits retarded -_-

**Weltall** · 2012-03-12 19:05

Yeah, she is the first character I chose when I got the game. Standing MK is really good, but certainly she isn't broken lol.

She has 1 AA option which would be considered below average for most characters, and she has literally no options on wakeup that I can find besides block.

**shukudai** · 2012-03-12 19:24

I'm probably being just salty, but the balance feels way off in this game. Being able to lose 50% life in one brain dead simple combo costing you a match is just retarded. It did take 3 meters, but still fucking retarded. Ryu cr.MP cr.MP cr.MK > ex Donkey > j.RH > SRK > Hwoarang cr.MP (or MK), ex Hunting Hawk > Uppercut = bye. The funny part is, I was hit with one relatively low end combo and 1 DP before -_- Health is huge in this game.

You can EX Geyser on wakeup as a reversal as long as they aren't jumping in for a crossup. I think her AA is solid, but I think she gets zoned really easily, unless there's some sort of way to get around fireballs on her that I don't know about. Her overhead options are mediocre. Her corner pressure is beastly with Flash Kicks.

This isn't you, this game is unbalanced as fuck.

I think my final disposition of the game is that it's really fun in small doses, with the dose size generally being however long it takes until you face a Hwoarang. From every actual video game design aspect I can think of, this has to be one of the worst-made FGs ever. Engine is deep and has a ton of potential, though. More fun to play with friends than to play competitively, and I think tournament-wise it will die quickly. Edit: That or it'll be MvC2 again, last a long time but with only 6 viable teams.

Much more balanced

**Chun Liroy** · 2012-03-12 19:40

You were talking about clear cut top tiers, who do you think, besides Ryu and Rolento are top tier (broken as fuck)? Who do you think needs the most balancing, as far as needing to be buffed? Just curious.

**Callisto** · 2012-03-12 19:43

I don't know enough about the Tekken side of the cast to say for sure, I can say that Hwoarange, Kazuya, and Rolento are busted as hell. Ryu isn't broken, just really strong, he can be counter-picked by a lot of Tekken characters. Hugo can be counter-picked as well, anyone with decent reaching multi-hit moves can do well. Nina and Juri seem really, really strong but I don't think they're well-rounded enough to be considered broken.

It's way too early to be making real tier lists but I think it's kind of obvious who the top handful is already.

**Weltall** · 2012-03-12 19:49

@ Calli - Nina can use command dash to avoid fireballs very easily.

Also EX Geyser is an awful wakeup move since they can poke or throw you right out of it haha.
