THE STRONGEST THREAD IN THE WORLD (The LEON Thread)

Yeah, that's pretty damn lame. You can also see that he lost his guaranteed ground throw after 9PP at :21.

damn those are some hefty nerfs. did he get any buffs other than backward tankroll? seems they're trying to limit his offense in favor of improving his defensive
Hmm. Yes. Perhaps it depends on when you land it. Even so, it's confusing because the video doesn't show a consistent stun.

At 1:28 it simply slams to the ground on Hi Counter Strike. At 1:31, it causes what appears to be the new bound state on Normal Hit, but at 6:28, also on Normal Hit, it causes a sitdown stun.

I think he maybe he has two inputs for it. the 1:28/1:31 version is the P+K into tankroll string while the 6:28 version is the single hit version of it which still causes sitdown

at 6:28 it seems to sit down

yeah i noticed that too,also new knee launcher and TN really likes to see Bayman roll he can now go into a front roll after P+K and P from the roll now causes launch on normal hit...wait this is the Leon thread.sorry ive been starved for Bayman footage lol

Not that I know of, but I certainly hope so.

Perhaps. I have no idea what they're doing with him, but I hope he can still cause a sitdown stun with P+K on NH and CH and keeps his guaranteed P+K, 3K, 236P, 33P, 3K, 2T, 22T setup.

I'll be playing at least 3 characters in Ultimate. Akira, Leon, and Bayman. What I'm really liking so far is that it doesn't appear YET that any character is behind the curve.

P-P-P-P-P-P-POWER!
uh oh bruh, at the 1:28 and 1:31 mark in the vid below it looks like bayman's P+K doesn't cause sit down stun no more


Incorrect.

Working as intended.

Also :9::P::P: No longer guarantees ground throw, but I imagine :9::P: itself still does. Currently it seems to mimic how things worked during the original 1.03 glitchy patch.

it just occurred to me that despite all that footage we never saw Leon's cliffhangers.anyone want to take a guess while we wait for the game?

I don´t care so much about cliffhangers since there are not appeal for me.
In other hand, I was wondering myself how useful are going to be for him the Power Launcher. Maybe the full charged version of :P+K: can grab in the air just like Bass :3::P+K::H+P:. If that´s going to be the case, maybe that gonna be a reason to use :[[p+k]]:. Oh man, I can´t wait to start try things with him, this week it´s getting eternal! :leon:

really? i find it really satisfying to land them though because i dont like Bayman's grab i always go for the hit one KNEE DROP OF DEATH!

i dont see the power launcher being very useful to our characters outside of tag.

I've been wondering what his cliffhangers are for the longest time.

I say the best cliff hanger for him would be , he tackles them off the ledge then just keeps punching them in the face all the way to the ground and gives them one big punch when they land and rolls off them .

I miss his old stair throw. Where he just grabs their foot, runs down the stairs, and throws them into the ground like a cake from a SNL skit.

maybe it will be one of his cliff hanger attacks. He 9k punts them in the face grabs them by the leg in mid air and just slams them down to the ground below

Just tested it out

his attack cliff hanger is a double punt kick into his heel hammer kick that smashes the opponent to the ground

his grab cliff hanger is similar to what i guess earlier but instead of 9k punting them he grabs them by the neck hurls them above him mid air then grabs their leg and slams them to the floor
