In the E3 build she had the exact same Faint stun as leifang and sarah from her 66P+K.

can you check if that's still in ?

My apologies, I stand corrected. It is a faint stun. She can't combo off of it, so I didn't bother to check if you can counter out of it. So she has the stun, it just doesn't matter. ;)

Yeah, and will they feature characters who have not been seen playable yet?

The videos will likely feature Christie, Hayate, Jann Lee, La Mariposa, Ayane, Rig, Leifang, Tina and Bass.

Oh, bummer. Well it's always nice to see some more gameplay either way. I'm looking forward to the videos. I'd like to see more of Bass and Tina.

I'd play every character, but I'm just not good with every character. It's one thing to break a character down to find out what's good. It's quite another to actually be able to play well with that character.

The point of the match videos is to show higher level play than what we've seen up until now.

Yeah, I understand. It's cool. We'll all get to see all of them in action next month anyway.

I guess that Eliot picture means that Eliot will be one of the two new playable characters in the Gamescom build. Keeping my fingers crossed for Helena, but the other one will probably be Brad then. Eliot's new face kind of looks like a young Sissy Spacek's, but it fits. Didn't expect him to look much manlier anway. What's important is that they improve everything else,too.

Do you think IGN would invest in time/resources to breakdown the matches to explain the options a character has in a situation, or leaving that up to the community for that one?

Acctually you kinda can.
you can go ... 66P+K, P+K (stance), P+K (mid knockback) u need to be fast though..
Also, you can create a mean MEAN fucking reset off of it.
66P+K, 6P (you need to be really fast, almost mash in the P while holding 6) this causes a reset that puts the opponent back on their feet. from there you can chain it to pretty much whatever the hell you want, high, mid, low, a threshold launch, and most importantly .. BURST.

so basicly she can burst from 3 hits like Leifang with only 1 chance of punish because of that "Faint" stun.

I'm telling you guys, Kokoro is fucking good in this.

From that balance test video 1. Kasumi did a critical Burst in three hits. She did a punch then her running two jump kicks into a sitdown then critical burst. I remember in the E3 build all she needed was that running sitdown jump kicks to pull off a critical burst.

That'll be up to the community.

First off, it's character dependent for the 6P and the stance P. You can get the stance P+K any time but it just knocks down so you don't get a combo. The low connects and stuns, but then the opponent can SE and/or counter out of every option, so at best you have a mix-up, you can't get a Burst unless the opponent just doesn't know how to SE.

So you were right in that you can combo, but you can't CB and from my limited testing, you can only combo with one option.

Also, 6P+K is unsafe so... yeah.

That's a 4-hit CB in the video, not a 3-hit.

So Hayate is low tier... ah... maybe God does exist.

He's mid. He's way better than La Mariposa at the moment.
