See, I just don't understand the want for things like this.

an ayane just got like 50-75 percent health off a juggle. every round off everyone in the lobby.

WHY would anyone want to do that? how could that possibly be fun to take off that much health off one jab so easily? the rounds are just over in seconds, so why bother even starting up?

i can understand power characters, where you have to time a big slow attack for that much damage, but like..ayane? The hell? What's the point?

Why would anyone want to win that quickly and that that easily?

ugh. I dunno, I have the play for fun mentality, will never understand the extreme "play to win" stuff like that.
I don't think it's possible for Ayane to do that much damage from 'one jab' unless you're exaggerating or playing on 240. CB + PL + environmental damage can get that high.

Technically you could hold Tengus 4P+KP. You just had to be ready to eat a fan if you messed up.

All for Tengu to get back in so my brother would start playing again (he picked up Bayman for a while and quit).

Tengu is dead. Ryu defeated him. Deal with it. Team Ninja doesn't want him in the game. He doesn't fit in with the direction of the series now. Face it, his time has BEEN DONE!!!

@Jyakotu: Didn't you stated it here some time ago that you can "defeat the entire cast"? If so, then there shouldn't be any problem to you if TN were to put him back? I mean there are characters in the roster that doesn't really have a story in 5 anymore but were still back by popular demand so why not give the same treatment to Tengu?

And how do you know what TN wants? Actions don't always reflect desires, you know. That is to say, one could want to do something, and then do something else entirely. That doesn't mean they didn't want to do whatever in the first place, it just means they didn't end up actually doing it.

Because the characters that came back are icons. Leon and Ein are important and play differently from Bayman and Hitomi. Their inclusion totally made sense as bonus characters. Tengu, well, not so much.

And Tengu isn't an icon? He is the only boss with the highest number of appearances as a playable character (that includes every known version of DOA2, DOA4 and Dimensions). He plays like no other character too with a unique moveset of his own.

What does it takes to make Tengu "likable" for you to reconsider him to get included in the roster?

Tengu has barely been remembered. He skipped a game and was horrible in DOA4. Nothing about Tengu is "likable" in the least. Hayabusa got rid of him for good.

Yes because by your logic, Tengu and Ayane plays too similar. I mean Ayane is the Female Tengu now.

He's not "iconic" enough because he plays too similar m i rite?? Makes total fucking sense.

Anyone can defeat the entire cast if they're played by a noob.

In reality, yeah...

Not really surprising if he's playing against brain dead COM at level 1. Let's give a round of applause to the man who can defeat the whole cast.

Tengu had his time and appeared in more games than any of the other boss characters in playable form. That's not really fair to the other boss characters. Besides, if people want Tengu, they need to buy a copy of DOAD. And I'm sure they have an old copy of DOA4 lying around somewhere, so there's that as well.

On it.

I greatly appreciate the continued support, @Kronin. And thanks for joining the cause, @RoboJoe and all other newcomers. And thank you to those who have already been fighting the good fight.

Meh, I've seen my fair share of assholes saying he shouldn't come back.

Mostly for dumbass reasons like "He's too ugly" or "He's too cheap" or other fucking bullshits.

1) "He's too ugly" - Nothing ugly about a beautifully majestic beard like that.

2) "He's too cheap" - Bottom tier and completely nonviable is cheap? Hmm. News to me.

all this talk about not bringing tengu and how cheap/awful he is makes me want to try him out

god damn, jyakotu's reverse psychology is workin
Buy a used copy of Dead or Alive 4 or Dimensions, and you can try him out there. Problem solved.
