Silver Mushroom 2

To play the optimist, Japan has a good arcade scene unlike America, and like you said, only Arc sys knows how many otakus just had to get their waifu fix on digitally. America and Europe do not have an arcade scene, so hopefully that will make English players pick up the financial slack. But yeah, releasing the game on the same week as friggin smash bros. was a horrible idea.

Just passing by this thread and this popped in my mind. So, Still Growing can be used as a metered 1 frame mist cancel that doubles as a frame trap, which said frame trap can possibly be used to condition the opponent into not attacking when you do a uncancelled eat charge in their face depending what the recovery is. Interesting.

Isn't the idea to activate the bliz shield when the zato is already doing the unblockable? Or heck, if you got a zato that is delaying a hit to bait out a bliz shield, effectively giving you frames to work with that you normally wouldn't have, isn't that kinda a win on it's own?

I'm also interested in subbing Venom when I get my hands on the game. Anyway, I was wondering, it seems like the way YRC works, Stinger Aim YRC is effectively a gunflame YRC if you time it right during a blockstring, but I haven't seen any players use the move like this. Why is this? Not enough access for testing? I only have videos to go on btw.

If this isn't off-topic, with sin/Elphelt/ram/bedman seeming to ape Johnny/robo-ky/Bridget(I swear I saw Ram use a similar looking escape move)/testament respectively, and the characters not in Xrd who don't have Xrd characters aping them are various flavors of rushdown which is already accounted for (ABA, Jam, Order Sol), have a new mechanic that does what they do (Baiken), have returning characters already in who are similar to them (Dizzy is to Ryu as I-no is to Ken), or is whatever Anji is (Anji's like slayer I guess? *shrug*), is anyone thinking there that are characters who are not coming back?

I don' know GGPO, but wouldn't XRD being 2D gameplay wise allow some wiggleroom for GGPO?

I'm sure that Arcsys is smart enough to know that releasing a game as lag intolerant and niche as GG without excellent online would be nigh indistinguishable from taking the money and man hours put into the game and chugging it into a dumpster (in America), so I think it's safe to assume the game will have amazing online.
