So Ibuki can do some fancy poo poo with kunais and bombs.

That activation combo at 1:08 does pretty insane damage

Every other match will fail to record for me. Some do, and some don't.

Doesn't really matter since I'm forever waffling between bronze and super bronze anyway.

It would NOT surprise me at ALL if it's because they didn't expect you to be able to combo off of throws so they didn't include scaling for them.

But just a theory, but the scaling on the same moves seems to be much higher in other combos.

Could just be nash having lower than avg health.

they hosed up the challenges by making them all or nothing for fm. there's no incentive to try them and train on them unless you are already very good at execution. having them be each worth fm would be so much smarter but they are stingy fucks who couldn't even give away enough fm for a costume for their story mode.

I have to say though they are the easiest trials in games atm.

I can only finish bedmans in revalator after playing him like a year and it still had a few combos I'd never do.

I finished every characters in sf5. Most "difficult" featured sf5's small walk thing but it wasn't labeled in the trial because, capcom.

Would you say that Xrd is the hardest, then?

I guess I have pretty ok execution (I did all the SSF4 trials) but the SF5 ones are the easiest trials I've seen in a fighting game

The only difficult one I can think of was one of Karin's

KOFXIII has really difficult trials (I dunno how they compare to Revelator though)

Nah, i'd just say the playstyles were different enough that things were tougher to me. I found sf4's harder then sf5 because I have no patience for links though.

KOF13 did have some long as gently caress combos.

It's definitely a personal thing, but I feel sf5's had less varience among them then other games, where it was difficult to figure out etc, here it usually panned out to "oh lol, I guess i'm supposed to walk a lil bit here"

Crazy theory: Juri will actually have all three of her fireballs (low, mid, and angled) when she's released, based on the fact that Capcom went out of their way to give each fireball symbol a different look that even matches how a low/mid/angled fireball would look. Would make sense, considering she and Urien are still unfinished.

I also don't mind the explanation that her aura/fireballs are black and white now because of ying/yang design, but I'm hoping they'll be purple at release.

...but no, really, I just see a lot of hang-wringing over whether or not they've taken away Juri's other fireballs on Twitter and comparing her resource bar to someone like Ibuki's (who is the only other character with it right now, IIRC) and it seems obvious that this is why she's considered unfinished.

Speaking of Juri, here's an updated set of those notes with video links to specific combos.

FSE caused the purple, since Bison ripped her eye out no more purple. Easy peasy.

That seems like a silly reason to say she's unfinished when the other unfinished character has fully functioning moves and combos and poo poo across the board. I will be very surprised if either of them change much even as far as frame data on these attacks go when their release hits.

My execution sucks bad and I did all of them, just frame Tenko is annoying but doable.

Urien can't even juggle after tackle in the corner so if that isn't changed he's forever incomplete and gently caress this dumb game

It's also possible that the different fireballs will have different damage/stun properties or that the different designs are just anachronisms and she'll just have the low fireball at release, but I'm thinking she'll keep the different types of fireballs.

When did this happen, exactly? I know Juri kills Seth in her ending and she confronts Bison in his ending during SF4, but I haven't seen the actual eye removal yet.

VVV Ahhh, I'll have to look that up, then.

All I can think of is Raiden/Big Bear in the Fatal Fury/KOF games but he spits green mist usually. Did someone from Saturday Night Slam Masters spit mist?
