Matchup Forums

I brought this up a few months ago, but the request was ignored, so I just wanted to bring it up again and see what comes of it. Is there any way we can have a character matchups section? Matchups are discussed in each character's subforums, but you don't get opinions from both sides of the matchup in that regard. For example, for the Jin versus Ragna matchup, is it possible to make the link in the Jin character matchups and the link in the Ragna character matchups go to the same thread so information from both sides can be discussed in the forum more than a one sided discussion. i feel like people will be able to grasp the matchups better since people can talk with a little more experience for their mains in the discussion. overall, i hope that this system will get more activity in the matchup threads and improve the level of the community in general. opinions?

I think instead of this that players of both sides should contribute to both forums, ie Jin players helping out Ragna players with stuff they're having trouble with and vice versa. That way there's two matchup discussions focused for each side.

Wouldn't make much sense to create ANOTHER place to discuss matchups when we have that option...

what i'm saying is just have those two forums link to the same thread so information isn't repeated unnecessarily and there is an equal representation of both sides compared to it being in two separate characters' threads

The flip side to that is if you are reading a matchup thread in order to learn how to handle the matchup as your character, you have to wade through people explaining things from the perspective of your opponent as well.

This isn't all bad, sometimes that sort of info can be beneficial.
