I know what you mean. Not sure though, now that I think about it. Manny wasn't exactly trying to hit me with powerblow spam.

Yeah that maybe it. I didn't know he started his PB with a punch similar to that. I will look at more closely tomorrow after class.

Awesomic, here's the Christie Exhibition. It shows the new guard break and her Power Blow so you can see both. It also shows her 9K launch on normal hit.
Well it's extremely evasive, but it's not really a stance in the same sense that it was in DOA4. I'd say it's an overall improvement, but right now Christie is still lacking.

Thanks for answering my questions. Let me clarify,
is Akira's two armed attack that leaves the opponent side turned on hit. As far as I know, Doa isn't big on side turned stuff, so I wondered if they would change that.That's exactly what I meant.
Forget what I said about launchers, I can probably figure that out, but I am curious as to how Akira's attacks have adapted to Doa's stun system and that's why I asked.
I don't know how much time you spent with Tina, but you wouldn't happen to remember any of the setups you tried would you? Just trying to get an idea of how much her 3.1 game would apply to 5 (at least as it is right now).

For the character attribute stats of Strike, Hold, Throw, Power, Speed and Moves, can you tell that they actually relate to how a character plays?
They really set characters apart when you just compare the stats themselves, but how does that match up in game? Can you tell there's a huge difference between a hit from Leifang (only a 1 in Power) and a hit from Tina or Bayman (both have a 4 in Power), etc.?

That's really difficult for me to test since there's no training mode in the build. Also, Akira is constantly changing and Rikuto and I even requested further changes based on the E3 build. Stuns and things of that nature will likely change between now and Sept.
I hardly spent any time looking for guaranteed ground options. I only tried a few off the wall setups and that was before I found Bayman's stuff. Essentially, any attack that slams the opponent to the ground should grant a free ground throw.
But I have to restate again... things will almost certainly change between now and Sept. I wouldn't recommend over analyzing the E3 build looking for setups. There were rather significant changes from the build I played just before E3 to the E3 build (from a competitive standpoint), and they were maybe a week apart.
Yes. Bayman and Tina can take 50% with relative ease. Christie has to hit you about 40 times to take 50% (that's an exaggeration). Some of the ratings seem a bit off, but they're a decent representation of the characters.
Keep in mind, most of the top players are better than anyone playing the game at Team Ninja. We think differently than they do, and we're also more focused on individual characters instead of the broad spectrum of the game. How we play a character may be very different compared to how Team Ninja expects the character to be played.
Gotcha. Thanks!

okay some notable stuff for busa in the E3 build ^.^
is guard crush now and leaves you at +5
recovers much faster ^.^
can do izuna throw from ninpo stance now!!!!!!!!!!!
from ninpo stance hits at the mid level instead of high
launches on normal hit now
recovers a bit slower then the alpha version
his moves out of ninpo stance will be different speeds depending on witch move you use to get into ninpo stance.
last but not least i spoke to manny about busa being able to go into ninpo stance before the round starts and he confirmed he has spoken to TN about it so keep your fingers crossed mwahahahhahahah ty

Good thing Team Ninja is making a character like Hayabusa that's been top tier in every game to date even stronger. It's not like there are plenty of other characters that need the attention. =P

i know right? how awesome!
Hayabusa's considered a grappler now so any universal buffs that would apply to grapplers he benefits from as well. No one other character has as many options as he does. I'm kind of sick of Hayabusa and the ninjas getting all the love. TN has 20 other characters that need the love.
