I remember watching that the day it was uploaded. I feel picking a top tier to win... it's smart in a way but a player that dislikes the top tier or even dislikes the characters that are top tier simply won't put in the same amount of effort as the character they like or have a feel for. Some...

Might I make a suggestion? Give the damage values on all the combos. Also I know for a fact that some of these don't work on heavies, you should put a tag at the end or something like *No/H* at the end of combos that don't work on heavies.

Sarah gets +4 off an insanely fast mid kick. Which is why I feel Akira should get the +5 off his slow sit-down stun.

I don't know honestly... I'm actually legit afraid Melee will get the spot. People have wanted that game at EVO for years.

It's competing against Capcom vs SNK 2? This is not going to be easy...

A 10 frame +1 jab being a 9 frame +2 jab? That's a little too overkill. Just the +2 is one thing but the i9 that effectively gives him a 7 frame jab if the 9 frame is blocked. That's just too good for a standing jab. As for the knee, going from punishable to +2? It would have to stay holdable...

This is DOA's time. I'll be hoping for the best. If I'm able to donate even a little bit I definitely will.

Indeed I do. I have a stick, but I never bothered to learn it. And I wouldn't use it for DOA anyway.

1. It may have decent mixup properties but I still don't see why the followups aren't guaranteed, and I don't really see the point either. I'd rather just get the guaranteed stun game than have to attempt a mix up at the risk of being snuffed by something other than a hold. While we're at it the...

That's pretty much the extent of the depth in DOA5. You're basically forced to guess weather or not your opponent is going to finish their string or free cancel into another attack or a grab. Guessing, which everyone loves to do. Some things can be reacted to, but some things force you to guess...

In a game where 95% of all the attacks leave the aggressor at negative frames, you're right. And that's exactly the problem. The game shouldn't have you thinking "Ok as soon as he finishes his string I can just mash because I know he's at negative and I'll beat him out no matter what." It...

I noticed I hadn't made a topic in the Akira boards, but aside from that I was thinking about Akira and his tools, where he stands in tier lists, how he shapes up against the other VF characters here and I came to the realization that both Pai and Sarah are superior to him in this game. I...

Couldn't agree more, every character should have some form of accessible frame advantage. This does not include retardedly slow moves that require windup that you'll never actually land in a real match. Things like Gen Fu's 66p, Hitomi's 3F+K, Busa's 4pk, Eliot's 46p finishers, etc. should have...

Well, I'm really late to the party, but I'll post my own personal list of buffs and changes I think Hayate should get to become a solid tourney worthy fighter. :hayate: Strikes (Frame Changes): - All of Hayate's charge attacks and strings with chargeable finishers should be +10 on block, not...

Now I remember it being a sit-down stun, to nerf the sidestep properties though, I don't understand how you can take away tools like that from a character like Hayate and give the top tiers all the tools they have. Still stumped as to why 8K is holdable now also. Useless in DOA4 and as soon as...

I use Akira, circling isn't going to happen so I just stand there. But if the opponent tries to do it to me I'm going to move in the opposite direction. You're not going to get me with that bullcrap.

Honestly, not that much of one. Go back to 3.1's old system. Add more guaranteed setups for every character, speed up throws and we're pretty much good.

Sadly Akira doesn't really have any frame traps, He's got about 4 +1 frame attacks but you can only safely pressure with 66p after those. If you got +5 off his 214p at any range instead of max range only that would be a legit frame trap and would make him much MUCH scarier.

I think I might pick up Rig and Gen Fu.
