That's not how cammy works, she gets to walk forward and meet at midrange for free because her specials punish any attempt at zoning. Her normals are better, her pressure is better, her poke game is better - I don't see how a smart cammy player would ever lose the matchup.

Stupid thing that bothers me immensely, jiu-jitsu relies on wearing a Gi and Laura wears nothing up top.
I can't imagine her as doing that with the clothes shes wearing and the whole "I emanate lightning" thing makes me think she doesn't have a real base in anything.

At least this picture sorta looks like someone who grapples.

You can mash throw, as long as they do indeed go for one you will break.
Throw reject misses are to my knowledge blazblue specific.

That's kind of what I figured, but wanted to double check that.

Is the best way to practice defending yourself from throws just to set a training mode bot to throw you repeatedly?

Maybe just mash it faster?

You cant croutchtech in this game, you need to be standing up (blocking high) to tech throws.

Edge was the best for the entire duration of the games life cycle.
He wasn't broken to the point where it wasn't fun to play him though.

Sure he had a dashing high/low mixup that went into 25% or 45% with super and was safe on block, but other characters were allowed to be good too.
I feel like everyone but Chun and Necalli just don't have buttons in SFV.

Didn't SFxT have a lot of views its first year?
Having popular players and a franchise behind something doesn't have anything to do with the games livelihood.

How is an extra character going to improve my gameplay experience?

For most of my life, I would agree with this mentality.
Recently though, I learned I love Tager so much that I thought I loved blazblue. I can't stand blazblue, but I have a tons of fun playing my favorite fighting game character.

The surrounding gameplay experience is okay at best, nothing spectacular. But the character is so fun that I don't care.
I think the only reason I spent as much time in SFV as I did was because I really, really wanted to play F.A.N.G.

Although obviously Capcom couldn't resist loving something up so Urien isn't naked anymore.

Nakedness was supposed to be a representation of raw masculine power, a suit is basically the same thing nowadays.
All I see on wall-street are naked people. An ocean devoid of loincloths.

I'm fine with a sex appeal characters, skimpy clothing or suggestive moves meant to say something about the character itself. In most cases, this just isn't how it works.
They give a character a bikini for no god damned reason, and every other female character already has some ridiculous allergy to clothing for no other reason than "we need to make the characters sexy" - it just blows my mind.

Juri as an example is something I wouldn't mind in a little less clothing in a vacuum, seductiveness is part of her character and how she operates. With the plethora of characters wearing skimpy poo poo for ceremony alone, I'm actually for some reason happier than shes comparatively covered up. Skimpy clothes and butt-slapping could have been Mika's schick, but we also have to have Cammy, Laura and Chun just letting it all hang out while simultaneously trying to play the "respectable strong female" role.

the sfv story ruined my desire to play fighters for a while

I have half a mind to make a Mr. Plinkett style review for that thing.
It's amazingly horrible in every single way. F.A.N.G is the only enjoyable thing in the whole 1.4 hour sham.

One thing i was scratching my head over today was If its a prequel to a game with almost totally different characters why dont more of them die? Like necali is there to feed on warriors but never does. He just loses fights and melts away? Just a small part of the problem with the story but i can only nitpick because the bigger picture is so bad i cant look at it.

1. The shadaloo base has a known location and looks like a big skull topographically, why not just shoot a missile at at. Karin used a satellite laser to kill bison in Alpha, and we have multiple people in the military. Just nuke the place.
2. Why don't we destroy the Dragonball McGuffins? We need them to shut the program down? Why bother having these loving things at all? If regardless of who gets them all 6 are meeting at the same location who cares?
3. There is a program that needs to be enacted for these orbs to fall, rather than to keep them in orbit. This can be canceled. Does the earth just have 5 super weapons floating over it now?
4. Dhalsim is not a mugger, he just wants that thing that you have in your possession. Give it to him. I'm not a mugger.
5. Juri picks up Cammy in Brazil on an off-road bike, and rides it across the ocean to Brittian where she crashes through a subway entrance, only to be caught by Claw who followed them on foot.
6. The password to the computer has a period at the end of it. You need to type the password followed by a period or it doesn't work. Jesus Christ.

There is so much more, every single scene that doesn't have F.A.N.G takes itself too seriously and is total rear end.
I can't believe this story mode in my fighting game.

Win a match using only speical moves!
Win a match as Zangief without using Spinning Piledriver!
Win a match without using meter at all!
Win a match by time-out!
Win a match without pressing medium punch!

What do you mean these aren't acceptable daily challenges?

I've always wanted to play a character with a reload mechanic and resource management that you sacrifice Oki for. Sin from Xrd comes close but doesn't feel right.
Hakan Oil was the closest thing that SF has really had in my opinion, Ibuki kunai don't do enough damage for me to care.

At some point the sales group must have gotten mad at how few people are buying characters with real money, and thinks that dailies would only worsen the problem.
It's such an easy thing to implement that it's the only explanation I can fathom.
