His wall damage is fine in my opinion. The combo we were just talking about is nice for sending straight to the wall, you can carry on with more damage if you're close enough. I'm not 100% sure what you mean by his side turned game. Are you talking about his moves that force the opponent to...

Yes, in DOA4, it was a high attack. I think it changed to mid in DOAD.

@Zeo, I felt that I still needed to hold :3: to be honest (meaning he has to at least crouch for a moment). It could be a force of habit though. I can confirm for you by tomorrow as well.

@Doug, yeah, we're in for a treat this time around. @Mr kwiggle, having the barrage not being countered once the first punch hits is one of my favorite new updates for her! It seriously changes the game for Christie players in a good way. Good catch, I did forget the :P: lol. And finally...

I've got bad news. The :4::6::P:,:2::H+K:,:P: does not connect anymore. This was one the first things I noticed because I use that all the time in VF5. The kick hits, but the punch doesn't connect. You're probably gonna have to settle for :4::6::P:, :2::P:, :h2::4::6::P: It was annoying...

Let's kick it off with some guaranteed combos. The damage may seem limited, but remember that the following combos can work in any situation and were tested under fastest recover and fastest critical hold settings. Basically, if you land the first hit, nothing can stop you from landing the rest...

In an attempt to make things a tad bit more organised, I thought I'd make a thread for Akira's combos as well. The title says it all, share your Akira combos and I'll keep things updated on the front page as frequent as I can. ======================== NOTATIONS ======================= Icon...

Yeah, I'm interested to hear your view on this as well. I use Qanba and I am very happy with them.

Thanks for the effort. Will definitely watch this thread and hopefully contribute as well. I already found a few nice combos and setups with her this time around, but the boys here have already done good coverage with her, so there's no point in repeating things.

Yeah, it's definitely annoying enough to deter you from liking that stage.

At DR2K, I like that attitude; stick with who you like and forget the tier crap. I can't say much though because my mains are all strong in the game (Akira, Christie, and Tina; with Bayman always present in the background), but I will be exploring all the characters and I do aim on improving...

@Robo Joe, don't quote me on this, but I believe is guard cancels are executed with hold. I haven't gotten as much time as I wanted with Akira yet, but I will get a chance tomorrow and get back to you with confirmation. It's been a while since I played with him, but I remember the transition...

That's fine though. Since you can stun with many different (and quicker moves), i.e. :6::6::P:, which chains to the barrage of strikes by tapping another :P:, which still puts you in stun, then you can pretty much go anywhere from there. She's really good now. Also, as you mentioned, the added...

It's strange how so many people hate the circus stage. Yes, it gets annoying at times, but I think it was done very well indeed. There are lots of things to look out for and the stage is always changing. I just don't like the stage's music. But my favorite is definitely flow so far. Such an...

My understanding is that she doesn't go into the stance per say. It's basically gone now. I haven't seen it on the move list, and I don't believe she transitions to it from any of the moves. She still has certain properties that replicate the DF (aka Serpent Stance), but I don't think it...

Thanks for doing this thread. (I was gonna make one for Christie tonight if noone did :p ). As you said already, she's improved so much in DOA5 from what I've tried so far. The only thing they nerfed (if you even want to call it a nerf) is her :7::P: ; it doesn't link anymore to the rest of...

The Akira Yuki Thread Overview: Origin: Japan First Appearance: Virtua Fighter Occupation: Kung Fu Teacher Fighting Style: Bajiquan (Hakkyoku-ken). In plain english, Bajiquan is Eight extremities (or infinite in some translations) fists. In this style external appearance is rather...

Wii U exclusive content? Doesn't look promising. But I do like what I have seen so far for the Wii U, and may buy one for some Mario goodness.

Yeah, I'd like his Ashtar costume to make it too. I like the classic NG2 reference with that suit as well. (Ashtar was the main bad guy in NG2 for the NES, until you find out...ZOMG!!11!! Jaquio is back). Good times. Also, I'd love Zack's silver snork alien costume. And finally, Bayman's...

Hey DrDogg, sure I'm more than happy to share. First, I want to thank you for all the character breakdowns you provided and I'm sure I'm not alone in expressing my appreciation for your hard work. Now, why do I like Lisa? Well, I like a character that has many options for various situations. I...
