Street Fighter V

STONE COLD STUNNER. GODDAMN.

I never played Alpha 3 all that much so I can't make any comparisons. THAT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER SINCE THIS GIRL LOOKS FUN AS HELL. Nadeshiko shenanigans are going to be great.

R. Mika being in the game gives me hope that Karin will be in even though Capcom is NOT gonna do it :'(

If you've read the article I've posted, Karin is definitely coming, alongside Alex and Urien, as R. Mika's reveal has only made the rumor more legit.
 
New character.
Spoiler:
 


Hello, Mr. Mix-Up City, who is also a Saiyan. Rashid mirrors and Vega matchups are going to be a blast to watch.
 
I fear this character reveal was released at the wrong time (an Arab fighter during one of the most heart-wrenching events in U.S. history).

I mean, if Rashid was doing more controversial actions, maybe.

But Rashid is your run of the mill street-fighting habibi from the block. Nothing to get worked over.
 
Not sure if intentional, but showing off his literal tornado kicks against Ryu was a clever joke.
I think I found a main to consider...
 
Rashid looks pretty cool not even going to lie. I'm not sure if the big tornadoes are a V-Skill or a command. If they are just a simple command then this guy is going to have a crazy mix-up game off hard knockdown. If they are V-Skill then we are looking at something akin to Nash and his teleport with the way it's used to extend combos. Either way I'm just dying to get my hands back on R. Mika. I mained her back in Alpha 3 and I'm super excited to play her in V now, especially with the changes she received.
 
Ghetto Aegis Reflector is a V-Trigger for Rashid. In addition to that, Nash's teleport is his V-Trigger not his V-Skill.
 
Well I'm still trying to get used to the terminology. I just see V-Skill as a blanket term right now since both V-Trigger and V-Skill use the same gauge. One is basically like an EX move to me right now. Either way, you know what I meant.
 


HELLO, NEW MAIN.

If the video goes down, it's Karin's trailer.

edit: holy shit that stage though. it looks GORGEOUS.

And yet again the Street Fighter fanbase continues to piss me off. In every character reveal on Youtube and Facebook, all I saw were comments like "BRING KARIN BACK!" and now that Karin is officially announced, I hardly see comments saying "Yes, she's finally back!" instead I see stuff like, "We better just call this Alpha 4 instead" or "okay now where's the Third Strike characters?"

Ughh, fuck them. This is why I prefer to distance myself from the FGC because this is too common to see people bitch after getting what they want.
 
With Karin revealed today, that only leaves Alex, Urien, and the last two newcomers. I wonder if one of those last two newcomers will be the final boss of SFV, since Bison wasn't the final boss in SFIV despite his inclusion.
 
I'm going to speculate DLC characters for SFV. I'm expecting at least 4 characters, because I heard 20 characters is the ideal number for game balance, so there wouldn't be any power creeps or low tiers in the roster. Those 4 characters I'm predicting are Sakura, Guile, Balrog, and either Akuma or a newcomer (wouldn't be surprised if it's yet another variation of him). Sakura because of her rivalry with Karin, Guile because of Nash's inclusion and hope that his story reaches a conclusion, Balrog because he and Vega are always together in the same roster (it wouldn't feel right to see one without the other), and Akuma because it can't be a Street Fighter game without a bonus final boss, unless Necalli took his place.
