Yeah it's 8 players who have barely spent any time with the game so this isn't "high level play" or anything.

CharlieFoxtrot posted:

There aren't. It's 4 fighting game community members who have spent no time with the game and 4 people from the E3 floor who have spent no time with the game.

I believe so. Mostly around the arms rather than the characters though I think.

I'd bet all of the open qualifiers spent time with test punch.

There's still the problem animation wise where the characters are still once they attack which doesn't lead to too much dynamism, but that can maybe be taken care of with closer ranged fights or smaller stages

that might be why the min min was interesting since there was more throws which has a bit more going on

Games not out yet, but it seems like they care a bit more about competitive play than Sakurai normally does. That doesn't mean it will though.

And whether or not the game gets life support in balance patches will probably come down to if the game is popular/sells well.

Rush attack is when you glow yellow and spam a ton of punches. You build up punch meter by throwing out punches and grabs, whether they connect or not.

All arms gain special properties when they are charged. Stuff like freezing an opponent to slow them down or blowing them away with wind. There are various actions that will charge your arms but everyone can do it by guarding.

The thing that lets you know this isn't pro play is the fact that they're using motion controls but nobody's properly doing aftertouch on their punches.
