Because alphas lack of Traditional wake up kicks are a small price to pay for 3 point countering, multiple OHs, a grapple that does over 40% and top 5 speed. And shes got 3 CBs, its stupid.
Ever play a good alpha? You have to damn near play a perfect game and that's against good ones like lopedo. Play that asswipe Darth vader or calibur - almost everything needs to go your way to get rounds. It's like playing against Jesus with God giving him pointers.
3 point countering, OHs and speed that makes SS attacking almost a non factor. As Zack you best her with solid defense and most of that is just guarding and countering. Go to TFC and get some matches in vs the 360 alphas. It's real over here
