is anyone more boring to watch/play against than Akuma, in literally every game with Akuma

Akuma is very entertaining in UMvC3, but only Justin Wong's Akuma, and also only when he's making a comeback.

Akuma's pretty alright to watch in 3S, but that also depends on who else you'd find boring in 3S I guess

Yun, Makoto, Chun are the boringest of the boring in 3S

I can get behind Yun and Chun, but I love watching Makoto. I am biased though since I do try to play her myself

Nerfing Vega at this point would require them to remove him from the game completely.

I do in fact like that, which is why I mained him in SF4.
It's just a shame that good normals are non-existant in SFV and Vega lost all of his good and interesting stuff to become more like every other SFV character.

Vega being motion makes no sense. At least let him have charge moves still like bison/chun

dont completely gently caress him into the dirt by making him the most boring stance character ever on top of it too

In retrospect I’m almost thankful they destroyed my boy Vega so utterly. Sf5 came out right as I was getting back into fighters and them decharging my bestest and beautiful claw waifu was the deciding factor on me not buying this game. I’ll ride that schadenfreude to my grave.

I haven't played SFV since early in season 2. I'm hoping to keep that streak alive, but the possibility that G is actually Q has me worried.

I'm no expert but everyone is saying he a lot better than he was. his anti air options is his big buff and it feels like in general his hit boxes got better while in claw.

but some of his frame traps were changed or don't work anymore. his ex fba come down is slower and you cant do the light roll loop anymore. I personally think clawless is pretty underwhelming considereing the changes to command grabs.

put me in the camp of liking Vega not being a charge character. I've always liked Vega and never got to fully play him because I'm really bad with chargers so color me shocked when he was changed.

That's odd. Every discussion I've seen of Vega so far is that he's easily the worst character in the game right now.

There are no Vega discussions because no one even has a rough estimation of what the hell he does in this game

I would agree with you if they did all those changes and didn't change how every single of of his anti air options works. season 3 is like night and day to season 1 and 2.

No matter how one loves, there are always different aims. Love can take a great many forms, whatever the era.
I think Vega's problem might be how his entire moveset is designed with the assumption that his opponent has never played Street Fighter before

TBH, I wanna say that it will probably come back on sale at some point, but I believe there have been a few timed exclusive things that have not gone on sale in a bundle/at a later date. I believe some of the CPT, Halloween, and Christmas items were limited time only. I know some have come back up for sale again but I'm not sure about all of them.

I also thought Capcom would've released the EX colors for sale but that still hasn't happened either so who knows.

He's a character based around having good pokes...that doesn't actually have any good pokes(his claw normals are surrounded in hurtboxes because lol SFV).

They should've redesigned Vega into being an ugly old man and not having his claw or mask anymore.
It would've beep a perfect fit for SFV.
