Sounds about right. Maybe an Unlimited Relius combo/discussion thread for lulz but everything seems to be in order.

I admit it: I just want somebody with a Reppuken. Adel will suffice.

Hopefully either he returns by February or someone takes up the job.

Rekka Kyo I can deal with, but Mr. Karate? A character who is already a color scheme for Takuma? And a version based on the boss version from SVC Chaos? Fuck that. I seriously hope SNK reconsiders and adds in my main man Geese.

...Well fuck, the rumors are true. And here I was hoping we would actually get some good DLC. Fucking SNK still doesn't know how to do online-related shit right, even DLC.

You know how you can tell which is which? Kill one of them. The one who dies faster is not Dante.

What a coincidence. My main team is Wesker/Ammy/Dormammu. Use Cold Star for Amaterasu and the stuff you're currently using for Wesker and Dorm. The team works incredibly well. You can stop your Phantom Dance around midway through, DHC into Okami Shuffle, and then before the lightning or snow starts, DHC into Stalking Flare or Chaotic Flame (preferably Chaotic Flame unless you have a good position, then use Stalking Flare).

God I fucking hate Nemesis. He is so retardedly easy to use, like the bastard lovechild of Hulk + Sentinel.

Vergil's color 5 is, to quote Capcom, "similar to Kyosuke". We all know that's wrong.

Since when has Kagetsu used Solna?

I hope he means Super SF4 and not Vanilla, because if it's Vanilla then online is going to suck. Not as badly as they've done before, but it will still suck.

LOL @ Phoenix Wright references. As shown in the preview, Kana Ueda (Rachel) is this episode's guest, filling in for Imai.

At least they're spread close together, unlike AE. But anyway, CAPCOM TAKE ALL MY MONEY FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

More color shout outs. K: C.C. (Code Geass) Andy: 2001 version Raiden: Yamazaki Ash: Motoko Kusanagi (Ghost in the Shell) Mai: Mina Majikina (Samurai Shodown 5)

Whoa, Yoshimitsu looks fucking hype. Lizardman looks a lot better than his old version. And I don't care how many people hate on Cervantes' new look, I like it. This Shiba kid sounds like a bad shota replacement for Seong Mi-Na and/or Yun-Seong.

The Duo Bios in the video is a separate Distortion. You can see Relius using up meter for the 2nd part.

Some impressions of the characters Capcom Vergil: Not as simple as I thought he would be, but easier execution-wise than Dante. He's like Dante + Wesker in a way. Pretty fun. Phoenix Wright: Loads of fun to be had here, but landing that Objection takes a while after getting your evidence. Once you do though, DARK PHOENIX WRIGHT RISES. Strider Hiryu: Extremely versatile. I like him a lot better than his MVC2 incarnation. Might main him. Personal fav from Capcom side. Firebrand: Flying Wolverine. Very, VERY trolly in the right hands. His resets are extremely easy to pull off and he can cross you up with them. Frank West: Starts out simple but gets complex really quick with the level system. Kinda like him. Nemesis: Like a combination of Hulk and Sentinel. Biohazard Rush destroys turtlers. Marvel Nova: Looks generic but is actually kinda hard to use. Still doesn't change the fact that I fucking hate him because A.) His name is Dick Rider and B.) He still looks generic. Ghost Rider: Really fun to use. All the shit he can do with his chains is just awesome. Iron Fist: For a Rekka character, he's executed really well in Marvel. It's a shame that in Marvel, comboing into Rekkas feels weird and out of place. Still pretty fun and simplistic. Dr. Strange: God I wish this guy had an airdash. My personal favorite of the new Marvel characters. I love his style, his moves, his everything. Hawkeye: I don't like him that much. His moveset seems too bland and he doesn't have a lot going for him. His Level 3 is hilarious though. Rocket Raccoon: Hardest of the new characters to learn. Also probably trollier than Firebrand. Gonna be real fun watching him in tournaments.

but raiden was nerfed

Yes. To hell with Vanilla.

I'll post up my thoughts on the new characters after I actually get some practice in with all of them. I will say this though - Wesker is still a fucking god. Seriously, you do the same shit from Vanilla and you win. Doesn't matter who your teammates are.

Just got the game and holy shit it is such a big improvement over Vanilla. Controls actually feel smooth now like going to SF4 to SSF4. Online is much better as well.

Maybe the Unlimited characters now use CS2/CSE balancing now. It explains how Unlimited Rachel looks like such a nightmare now.

Or so it seems. Remember that the console version of CS1 has enhanced Unlimited characters than what was in CS1 Arcade. CS1 Arcade, for example, only made Hazama have the ring around him without anything else, and Ragna was still CT Super Ultra "I DON'T GIVE A FUCK DEVOURED BY DARKNESS BIATCH" Unlimited Ragna. Long story short, wait for consoles or a better look at Unlimited Relius before judging.

"Puny man not Phoenix! Phoenix a bird lady! Hulk confused!" Fucking died laughing.

KOF in general has become pretty meh. Storyline hit its peak at 97, music sucked after 2000 when they fired the music team, and the gameplay sucked after 99, no thanks to the striker/tag team system. Now that they're going back to their 3v3 roots I've become more interested, though.
