hes kinda boring as a character but his powerset is interesting

if you dont know hxh he can make explosions in his palms and shoot them out but his trump card is he can plant time bombs inside people, someone touching him deactivates them. if you flex that a little you could easily make a fun setplay/trap type character yeah. since he has to touch the target to plant the bomb you could even make him sort of a grappler too

Ehhhhhhhhhhhh. She's in her 20s in the original Tsukhime and so she's probably that for every Melty Blood except Type Lumina where she still looks like a college student. (e: And that's assuming remake Tsukihime doesn't also move up her original birthday)

Anyways just because some women in real life don't "look" like they're in their 50s or 70s or whatever doesn't mean that it doesn't suck that dudes in video games get to look really old as gently caress but nearly every older woman doesn't.

like other than genkai in the old YYH fighting I'm drawing a blank. Matrimelee has a fight grandma I think?

Ask yourself, do you really want to play Russian Babushka?

I think I may make an actual effort to try to get into SF6 ahead of Akuma and the big balance patch, though I am still wondering what character to play. Ryu or Luke is a fallback, and I really liked Honda in SF4 but apparently they got problems and I don’t want to count on buffs.

honda's perfectly fine. he's not used competitively due to him having a very basic gameplan without much variation and a crippling weakness to perfect parry, but he has one of the highest average WRs across every single skill bracket and is still at something like 50% in masters+

It might be a problem at the highest levels of competition, but for just playing the game he's 100% fine

it’s not really about character strength; as mentioned honda does fine in sf6. but as an sf4 honda player he just didn’t feel right to me. and I say that as someone who enjoyed playing a scuffed rear end may like honda in strive

Honda in SF4 was so much fun.

Also, I watched JMCrofts's reaction video to Akuma (one of many I watched today lol), and he commented that Akuma's lvl 3 Super looks like Reina's Rage Art in T8 and now I can't unsee it

So is the 8bitdo Arcade Stick decent? I got it on whim and while I am not expecting it to magically make me a better player, I think it would slightly feel more comfortable pounding on big buttons again.

I played Honda in SFV and also something about SF6 Honda just doesn't click with me. I think I just really miss L Hands being plus on block.

Honda's probably the worst designed character in 6. He kind of needs a major rework to move around what his strengths are because he's just incredibly obnoxious at low and mid level play then rear end at the top level in a way that feels really bad.

Zangief might not be good but he feels much better designed outside of his useless moves like Tundra Storm and crHP

He needs a redesign, but the actual redesign is fairly straightforward - make non-EX headbutt/buttslam punishable, make hands plus, and make his baseline combo routes longer than "one medium linked to one light cancelled into one special."

Give him some cool combos that let him actually store sumo buff and use it in the same combo, IMO.

I fell asleep watching a stream and woke up to them having raided this channel, and in my half-awake stupor I couldn't figure out why a lovely Eddy had so many viewers. This explains it lol
