Kayane's Hands-on Impressions of SC5

I'm not a fan of the changes to GI either. I guess it might be really cool once I try it, but I agree with the guy who said it seemed more like a tacked on gimmick than something that was really well thought out and will improve gameplay. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for now though.

I agree about Tira, she shouldn't be so random. Also she needs to look more like her concept art and less like Talim in the hoo-hahs department. ;)

Natsu sounds incredibly awesome. I'm going to love throwing out illusions and how that will ramp up the possibilities for mixups. Also really glad they finally gave a reason again for your opponent to block low when you go into PO.

Zwei sounds broken. I guess they feel every time that the way to show off their new character and get people excited and talking about them is to make them ridiculously overpowered. Kinda like Hilde, or Bob. Pyrrha and Pat also sound super-scrub-friendly, though not outright broken like Zwei. I expect to play at least a billion of them online.
 
Hey Kayane, thanks for the new information on your thoughts!~ :D
Although, the new GI/JG system seems very unusual.
Oh yeah, and I'm loving the input for GI... 4A+B+K...

How impractical are they trying to make this? The last thing I'm trying to do is press back when I intend to front-GI you.
Tbh, I really don't know what to say on this, but having a button on A+B+K will make it seem easier than it sounds.

Even though Xianghua isn't in this one, Leixia will come and conquer. >:D
Oh, Kayane, if you are somehow able to play as Leixia later on, tell us more about her, please.~
 
I think we'll be spending a lot more time with frame data from now on to find the best punishes from a Just Guard. I just wonder how much of an advantage there is to doing a Guard Impact, it's most likely more dangerous and it takes meter. But I'm liking Kayane's first impressions.
 
Wajajajajaja, im going to win using lows only, no low GI, jejejejejeje, here comes Omega the Foot killer:sc3zas1:, SOUL CALIBUR 3RD STRYKE IT SHOULD BE CALLED LIKE THAT.
Yeah I was considering it. If there are no 1GI (my favorite) or 3GI, Wouldn't that reduce the mind-game as most people are going to attack low?
