Ah yeah, the solmitar kick, now it makes sense. It was one of my favs Leon attacks in DOA3 but sadly, he lost that move in DOA4. Hopefully, since he have this move in DOAD he will have in DOA5U too.
THE STRONGEST THREAD IN THE WORLD (The LEON Thread)
- Thread starter EMPEROR_COW
- Start date
I don't know about you guys, but I'm super excited to start playing Leon again. I'm going to be breaking down the character just like I did Akira in his character forum. I want people to know that Leon should be feared!
Anybody on XBL that is interested in putting in lab work with Leon as well should add me.

I want Leon to have this guard crush at the 32 to 34 second mark:

Omg, if his 9P and 46P were guard crushes that would be so much win, but when working with TN thats too much to hope for unfortunately. I do see his F+K being a limbo stun though. In DOA4.1 it was a sit down stun, but in DOA5U demo they brought to E3, it was a regular stun. Me don't like that.
His F+K should be a chargeable kick that puts the opponent into a blow back limbo stun like Mila's 7K.
Desert Eagle should cause a ground bounce like Rachels, but some how she ended up with the better version =/
3k better still be a sit down stun, and I hope his crushing game is still in tact.
Leon was also a very safe character in DOA4.1, hoping hes that way as well for DOA5U

We won't be seeing any "NEW STUFF" until 9/3/2013 lol.

No. The only promotion of Leon in DOA5U is his presence on the cover. We haven't seen new gameplay/moves/techniques, nothing. That's just plain stupid.

I get that he's not a main character (in the public eye) but considering they're "new" in terms of the disc release, you'd think they'd at least do SOME promotion for him. He's back, and that's great, but they shouldn't be shunning promotion of Leon, Ein & Jacky just because they have dicks. And you know that's why.

at least they don't have dick noses or they'd be cut from the series completely
i've pretty much given up on getting any relevant info or gameplay vids of him. TKs priorities are obvious and we will continue getting T and A filled shitty 40 second gameplay clips until release
<-- This guy
Sweet.
-Has his throw damage been increased any (possible highest dmg throw)?
-What combo damage can he next from his bounce throw?
-Does he still get ground throws and what are his hard knock-down options?
-What seems to be guaranteed off of his sit-down stuns?
-Any OHs aside from his tackle?
I realize that this stuff can be hard to figure out in a demo build, but whatever you can observe would be greatly appreciated.
I'll see how much I can actually find out. I probably won't be able to tell you max damage combos off his bounce throw because I won't have enough time to experiment.

From what I gather all throws have had a damage increase. So his punishment is gonna be really good I think. I am also curious if his 4 part is still 8 frames and the throw buffs make the first parts do more then average 6Ts with the chance to get the whole thing.
I don't think they'll be buffed enough for my tastes, but it would be nice. In general I think Leon deserves to have more damage on his throws comparative to the other grapplers as well (Bass maybe being an exception). His highest damage throw is equal to Lisa's? If you ask me, he should get a buffed version of Tina's 364T. Everyone would then cower in fear from trying holds, just as they should.

Did you see how much Ryu's 6T does in that Doa 5U video we got a while back? If throw damage is chunky like that for the grapplers it's gonna be great. Also having his 4 part as an 8 frame throw is a pretty powerful option. The increased health bar with stronger throws and holds having more recovery. It is gonna be interesting to get a feel for.
No. =/
I suppose, but you net the highest damage off of HiC anyway and with the increased hold recovery, 12-13 frame throws have never been an issue for snagging the HiC damage.
The increased low hold recovery with Ryu's 33T shall be glorious!
