How does 'Gief's new counter work?

Tundra Storm is a counter that is active on around frame 3. It puts Gief in a counter hit state. It counters horizontal kicks only. So it won't work on Sim's st.MK, but on his st,HK. Won't work on Mika's st.HK, but on her st.MK. Etc.

So Laura st.hk

Yes. But not her st.MK, because she is kneeing her opponent and not kicking.

A weirdly very specific move. Doesn't seem all that great, tbh. Might as well V-Skill instead of trying to hard read 1 or 2 very specific buttons coming out of the opponent, and risk getting CH for it. I guess it'd be MU dependent, too.

It doesn't work on everything you would consider a horizontal kick. For example, it doesn't counter Karin's st. hk.

her foot is angled down a little so it's a low kick

what a weird move

I guess ed can't st. hk gief either? it was bad before but now you really ought not to

I wouldn't consider that a "horizontal" kick. I'd consider that a kick aiming downwards, like towards the opponent's legs. Tundra Storm is literally for kicks that are aimed at Zangief's stomach.
 
Capcom didn't fuck with my modded Vega costume...

Man, if Capcom wanted to they could have made some more fun SP modes. Probably cost less than making the story mode too

The savagery.

The deserved savagery.

It's unfortunate that Mahvel Infinite will probably be caught in the wake of SFV's negativity.

Capcpom better stop being stubborn and push the game back to at least q1 2018 the games seems very rushed. They better take their time before ending up with another SFV case.
 
Dammit, now I'm torn between using Colour 13 of Ed's story costume or Colour 15 of his battle costume. Alts that change hair colour are my kryptonite...

Both sets of colors are really great IMO. Besides #11/Xmas Ed for his Story alt, I like pretty much every other color both costumes have.

I only wish they included a few more alts for his Battle costume that changed the tights into shorts besides just the one.

I played count once.

It's secretly why I hate sf4.

No, but really, I hate sf4.

I hate Capcom even more right now. Fucking assholes.





Let this be a cautionary tale. Never believe in Capcom. They will disappoint you more than you could believe.

The rosters not confirmed...

Colour 13 of his default is excellent too; I love the Great Saiyaman-esque palette. Geez, Ed might be the one character with whom I swap between costumes on a regular basis.
 
I don't think Ryce has been wrong so far. He was even right about the teabag DPs even though the Left Behind douche from Capcom blasted Ryce for it, claiming it wasn't true.
