I would really enjoy playing a fully functional xrd character against an SFV character. Even Potemkin would poo poo all over everybody.

just play xrd training mode cause a sfv character is about as useful as a dummy vs something like bedman or venom in the corner

Kolin looks cool but i dont want to play the game enough to unlock her and I am sure as hell not buying any season pass. I wish Xrd PC releases were in time with the PS4 ones, I'm itching for some fightgames right now but this game really is disappointing.

Why does the PC xrd release schedule matter? There are lots of people playing pc revelator right now, which should be all that matters if you're itching to play "right now". Rev2 is coming, yes, but everything is indicating that rev2 will be way discounted if you already have revelator. No excuses, Just Play dude!

xrd ranked is a joke you actually have to make friends and play them regularly to enjoy the game which is admittedly not easy when sfv is there to serve up scrub kens all night but way more satisfying

Most of the play you'll get from practically any anime game (or any non SFV game, really) is going to be from matchmaking outside of said game, and not from within it. Its possible to play revelator daily with other people if you make any effort at all.

Yes, I know. I still play SF4 regularly that way.
My point was that there aren't "lots" of Rev players on PC just like there aren't a lot of SF4 players.

After working in the shadows for Gill and the secret Illuminati organization, Kolin makes her Street Fighter V debut. First appearing in Street Fighter III, Kolin works behind the scenes in order to fulfill the Prophecy of Miraha and stop any who dare stand in Gill’s way. She is typically calm and collected, but can suddenly fly into a rage when anybody threatens Gill and his plans. Spoiler-alert, she resurrects Nash and uses him as a pawn too, showing she will do anything to achieve her goals.

Kolin and Gill in Street Fighter III

Kolin excels in the Russian martial art of Systema, utilizing the opponent’s momentum against them and executing various slash-like attacks and knife hand strikes. Gill has bestowed upon her the power of ice, allowing her to augment her fight style with frigid blasts and deadly icicles. She is often heard speaking condescendingly towards her opponents, knowing they don’t stand a chance before her, let alone Gill.

Where did her hatred of Shadaloo come from and how did she originally become involved with Gill? Be sure to check out her character story to find out!


V-Skill: Inside Slash

http://i.imgur.com/to1Wxa2.mp4

Kolin’s unique counter allows her to deflect and automatically punish incoming moves with ease.

V-Trigger: Diamond Dust

http://i.imgur.com/pCkfJbG.mp4

With a full V-meter, Kolin can slam the ground twice with her foot, each time shooting out a path of sharp icicles across the floor. In addition to damage and stun, this move freezes the opponent’s stun gauge. While in this special state, the stun gauge will not deplete and if Kolin is successful in stunning the opponent, they will be frozen in place.

Critical Art: Frost Tower

http://i.imgur.com/Irqbmrv.mp4

Kolin dashes forward with a slice of her hand. If the attack connects, she’ll continue summoning large icicles from the ground, throwing the opponent into the air and shattering the ice to drop them to the ground.

Also coming alongside Kolin on February 28th are her Story, Premium Battle and Nostalgia costumes.

I don't as long as I can find a reliable match whenever I want.
I'm just being a pedantic rear end in a top hat over the word "lots". Cause that's not really "lots of players" by any stretch.

By "lots" I meant "any time I get online there are enough people there to consistently get matches against a spread of characters and skill levels". And this is without even getting on discord/friend lists. Why would any other definition matter?

'Lots' is a very relative descriptor. Revelator has 'lots' of players compared to every fighting game not named Street Fighter 5. There's just a sharp decline in players from "fighting games named Street Fighter" to "fighting games not named Street Fighter".

Any ways fwiw you can log on and get player matches at pretty much any time of the day. I'm an unemployed lazy jackass who's been hitting it lately even in off peak hours and I haven't had any issues finding games. There's a pretty dedicated online community, it's just small enough that you get to make friends and know your boys and the local hot shots rather than queue up against a lineup of faceless randoms in ranked.

Is it a double jump or weird air fireball?

Like 70% of the cast have some air mobility already so not seeing the problem.

People are supposed to get hurt by things. It's fucked up to not. It's not good for you.
I'm not sure I understand half the point of Kolin's V-trigger. It prevents the stun gauge from decreasing sure, but if she stuns the enemy, they freeze? In what way is that distinct from just being stunned, because without further context it reads like "if she stuns the enemy, she stuns the enemy" and it's like yeah but why is that different
