Official Soulcalibur V 1.02 Patch Notes!

Yeah. What The Fuck Did They Do To Tira?!?!??! Like Seriously?!?! Now I cant bring my 80-120 Normal Hit Combos anymore. I mean how does 4K have a decreased chance of changing stance. OMG!!!

At the Least I can use Natsu Now, Make her Top Tier again, and have the bandwagoners find a new character.

But seriously, they Killed My Tira.

Edit - Tira was pretty OP. If you played my Tira. Gotta see what I can do now...
tira was not overpowered when fighting against spacing characters
 
i, for one, LOVE this patch.

to hell with all the character changes. we can adapt to them. i am more concerned with the game fundamentals. it baffled me that so many people were upset about QS4G (which nobody even utilized), but nobody seemed to care that you could backdash and either force a whiff or safely block 90% of the moves in the game when up close at disadvantage. that killed the game for me. stepping was soooooooooo risky but backdash was safe as hell. it was like stepG was present in its strongest form ever for backdash and the game was playing out like "tekken 2.5d" instead of 3d, but nobody cared. now, at least the risk for movement in any direction will be comparable and we don't have to play the "let's see who whiffs first and loses" game.

i understand how some people may have liked that aspect, as it made the spacing metagame play much more akin to tekken than previous SC games, but i absolutely hated it.

if this means that i can throw out hail mary iGDR on retreating turtles and actually have it hit once in a while, or that i can utilize my advantage after blocking without getting punished for doing so, then SC5 just got like 100X better in my book.

also, i can't wait to see what sort of connections i can make off of cervy BTb+k now. looks like those iBT just frames might not be completely worthless after all...........
 
Damn, why don't they just change the title to Pyrrha Calibur V or at the very least give the game a subtitle, like SCV: Fuck Siegfried.

Lexia is nerfed hard (understandable) but Pyrrha isn't? WTH?!?

Siegfried (one of the worst in the game, IMO) gets hit with nerfs? On top of that, they say nothing about fixing his moves that don't hit when they should. Seriously, do they hate him that much?
Because he no longer has Soulcalibur to have his back. He's the official whipping boy now :>
