Soulcalibur V Patch Announced for March 21

This game far beyond "balanced" to say the least....

List of viable characters:

Pyrrha, Pyrrha o, Natsu, Mitsurugi, Leixia, Maxi, Yoshimitsu, a.Patrokolos, Patrokolos, Xiba, Cervantes, Voldo, Ivy, Nightmare, Tira, Algol, Siegfried

.....then there is really weak Astaroth (upper low tier-mid for me) with the random variable that you guessed wrong in absurdly damaging throws. Other than that Asta is really bad.

List of not so viable characters:

Raphael, Hilde, Ezio, Viola, Zwei, Aeon

S-U: You know you're my boy, but i have to polietly disagree. That Guard Break system is why almost all characters can win. Yes, alot of the lower characters need help. Natsu needs damage nerf...nothing else Asta needs LOTS OF LOVE... Some of the upper tier may need some damage nerf. But that's stretching it

I agree the gb system does help characters win. Astaroth and Leixia come to mind the most for me. Still the GB system is flat out broken. Early in the game I made this statement. People turned it into oh its a complaint because its negative.

Next comes WB. This same complaint was brought up by top players of other games or just players in general who actually liked the game. So ok whatever right. It is what it is.

After almost 2000 matches iv'e come to find out there is zero ways of legitimately getting around it. I actually had a room going not to recently with Aneudee, Mick, some kvasir, and some solidatlien aka ShadowG. Me and Mick were either stepping Aneudee's Asta or JG'ing everything and rushing the fuck out of that character down. To no avail bars were still flashing red on our ends regardless. It doesn't make sense how players can punish you for free even when your pulling shit off that would make Daigo proud.

After almost 2000 matches I assure their is no logic in how it currently functions. It's simply favors the person who presses buttons regardless if they're getting beat down or not. It is broken. The only broken thing in the game I might add.
 
Me likey the crazy damage in SCV, I think low damage (most of the time) char like Aeon seems out of place.
Funny thing is I absolutely hate 100% combos in mvc3.
 
S-U: YOU SHOULD START A THREAD IN THE TACTICS FORUM FOR GUARD BREAK. GET A LIST OF WHICH MOVES CRUSH GUARD THE FASTEST. PYRRHA’S 8B+K TAKES 8 BLOCKS.
 
You know, regardless of what we post in here the patch is done. At this point, all we can do is just patiently wait and discuss things we should look at and test first.
