E.Mann might have more experience than Rikuto does. It's hard to tell with online players seeing as they get disregarded as trash pretty fast by offline players.

No one is disregarded as "trash" for playing online. It's more of you're not going to get recognition by the hardcore community just by winning online. Why should you?
What the fuck. Is that even possible with how long the game's been out?
Many online DOA4 players had 40,000+ by 2007.
You're asking the wrong guy. xD

Rewatched the finals just now.
Can we make a recommendation not to have this Rikuto guy not to commentate anymore?
Not only was his crying annoying as hell, it was pointless. Considering the fact that everyone in the room (who were kind of quiet through a majority of the tournament) were getting actually getting hype he missed a really great opportunity to promote DOA5 as a respectable fighting game. And then the other guy was just sitting there cosigning EVERYTHING Rikuto said. On Marvel when you see them long ass close to death combos the commentators raise their voice and shit and push the hype even further! The commentators are meant to escalate the fights and to push the appeal of the game to outside players. Rikuto did a TERRIBLE job.
And it's not even a bias thing because I do play with Helena, it's the fact that even throughout all the fire that was blazing from the matches, Rikuto kept pouring his watered down complaints on the match. "Oh look, another combo? Where's my force tech? Oh.. no force tech. She's still broken."

After watching the video I'm surprised to see that people are complaining about Helena...well at least complaining about her strengths now. When I first heard "force-tech" I thought Mamba found a way to guarantee hitting you with that punch after knocking you on the ground, but what some are annoyed by is actually the elimination of the wake-up kick. I never thought of this as a big problem for opponents of Helena, though I can understand how this can be annoying and seem unfair. I use it to keep up pressure, but I always figured people just didn't punish me correctly. I don't think it's nonsense though based on the fact that Helena is pretty limited by comparison to the rest of the cast. At the same time if there was anything I would ask Team Ninja for it would be a slight damage buff, but that's all.

I understand that. But you cant sit on the mic and fucking complain all day when the Grand Finals are going on.

There is nothing cheap or broken about a character being able to take away a HIGHLY FLAWED mechanic out the game....

Bass can do it just as well. When he knocks you down it's going to be pick up or force tech.

Where can i watch the finals for DID? What time does it start at the video?
Rikuto
P-P-P-P-P-P-POWER!
How much you wanna bet I can rape you with Helena, after flatly refusing to use her for 12 years?
Because with this tech, I can. And that shouldn't be possible.
The only reason Manny came back at all is because Mamba started choking and opening with the same stuff over and over again.
I'm not going to hype any match I think is dumb, and I told everyone it was a dumb match before it started. You get what you pay for, which is nothing. I was also strong armed into doing the commentary crap to begin with, so you really think I felt like being there? Think again.
I give honest commentary, not some overly hyped bullshit. If something is dumb, I will expose it as dumb.
Also Marvel is a shitty broken game of dice, it requires over-the-top commentary to be entertaining on any level.

Bass needs it, otherwise he would be fucked.
