- I feel the same way about Testament. FB skull is amazing, but I don't see much use for EXEs now outside of another oki option (maybe S EXE when they're too far to run in > web?). It seems like they're worthless for pressure now; I saw a TE attempt some typical strings with them, but their startup delay was so huge the opponent just hit him out of it, cancelling the beast. The threat of his rushdown seems greatly lessened. I'm guessing they want him to be a pure zoner/trap character, but where is his damage?

- Justice almost looks like a joke character at the moment. IAD Install has way too harsh penalties that make it not worth using.

- Kliff looks... I don't know, lol. Can't really figure out what they're aiming for.

- FWIW, I asked an English-speaking JP in the chat what his opinion of the changes were. He said he's personally excited about Bridget gaining "high attack power" since he plays him, but then he followed that by saying Johnny is the strongest character right now. His rough English made the latter somewhat ambiguous if it was his personal opinion or the general consensus amongst JP players.

At the moment, Kliff kinda reminds me of Dhalsim: He's got low HP, a floaty jump and long range ^.^V

I finally hot to see some Jam action too! The ground bounce on 6H seems interesting... Would her powered up 623K work well that this new change?

He said Johnny got the largest boost in power during this loketest, not that he was strongest overall. (Also hi! I was onehitcombo.)

Kliff looks like a troll character. Instant-dizzy force break, fully invulnerable lean, huge jumps, big damage, delayable overdrive (that Kliff that did fullscreen max-delay overdrive made me laugh out loud, his opponent had no idea what to do). It's all beautiful and I love it.

Robo, thank you for sharing the torrent. I've set it as an article on DL's front page for a little extra exposure.

Yeah, it's that backhand, I think it's a followup to his glaive shake attack? Instant dizzy against most of the cast as the first hit. Made Potemkin flash red, and even if it doesn't dizzy it still causes a pretty hefty stun.

Zappa makes me wanna cry....he was NEVER that bad. Even Justice was shut down in that matchup. Not even Ky or Venom could really get close to him without hurculean effort.

That's mostly because Justice can't dash now. I'm sure if Justice had the older properties, there wouldn't be that problem.

The zappa matchup as Venom honestly looks fun as-is.

While sending the sword way out there is kind of risky for Zappa, the footage we saw was hilarious. I'm seeing this becoming a real problem for Potemkin and Justice unless this is one of those things where something seems strong at first but is considered not much of a problem once people get better.

Honestly those sword inputs seem way too fast and way too easy for Zappa to cancel and abuse. There should be some cooldown time between inputs at least.

sword looks at home now since it can detach. it seems lije a really cool and fun to use mechanic. dog on the other hand... goodbye bite. it doesnt seem to have any outstanding properties to warrant using it in any situation.

It's still 3 orbs on hit and now 1 on block. As far as I can tell we also still have the dive overhead.

This. People just didn't figure out how to get past it.

It works in media player classic, too. (Which is generally superior to VLC, running cleaner with less memory overhead and having cool features like frame-by-frame and ctrl+enter to fullscreen.) Just, it uses codecs that most programs you'd have "by default" don't know how to deal with.

Thanks \o/

Why it works only with VLC Player? :psyduck:

Because it was my first stream-recording expirence, lol. (Actually, second)

On serious note: it works with Light Alloy and Windows Media Player Classic, too. At least, at my PC.
