VS2 activation can do 430 damage a single combo no ex. Which is crazy. 2 V Guage and you get more damage than a demon without ex? that some good damage. (J HP) (CR HP) (ST MP) (Light Tatsu) (Heavy Shoryuken) (VS2 Tatsu) (VS2 Fireball). This is 430 damage.

I have mained akuma for a while now. And personally, I've always liked VT2 more than VT1... Not as powerful with no raging demon, I get that. But it allows you to capitalize on any combo you can get in to. That versatility alone has been why I prefer it over VT1. So I am super happy that it got the juggle buff. So many amazing combos that just got dropped when you hit the cap really sucked. I'll be happy to take this back into ranked and see how much better it is! I never cared for VS2 either though. I like having my counter option too much.

Vt2 is fun and does good damage but the only tools outside of damage it gives is cancel into teleport which can be useful, especially if you notice a jump in as you throw a fireball, and block pressure. Vt1 gives too many options to go for vt2. Vt2 cancel into demon flip is also pretty cheesy that can pay well. Vs2 is still ass so I dont expect it to be used either. It would either need less startup to more useful in fireball wars, less recovery so he doesn't get murdered by jump ins, or become really good at anti airing like g's vs1.

@chasun3 жыл бұрын
I think akuma is good, but good/bad is relative. He s like 90 out of 100 with previous vt1. Vt2 maybe like 75, now buff to 80 maybe. So it doesnt change much where akuma stand, just more fun for some. Major problem is there now a handful of characters over 90, and some poor matchups. Jimmy is right, ryu is now in favour. Also akuma s health. Tokido either switch or at least need 2nd in pocket

I can see people trying out VS2 with its buffs, probably still never going to see VT2, though. VT1 just does way too much for Akuma with the only downside being 3 bars. However, I could be proven wrong
@Butterfree_hater3 жыл бұрын
Idk I personally prefer vt2 just because of the cool setups and overall damage increase and oki off of basically every hit. I can definitely see vt1 still being used a lot for the better fireball and dp but I think demon isn't as good anymore due to it no longer being instant up close and requiring every resource you have. Vs1 and 2 are harder to decide between though for me tbh but I may actually switch to vs2
@sylncethegod3 жыл бұрын
I agree with Jerry on this. VT1 was strong, but the way resources are spent if you try to convert using your V-meter you’re wasting damage cause of scaling. In VT2 you can do St.MkxLP.RedfireballxxEx Demon Flip on block as a string and they have to guess. 😂 Bruh, that’s nasty and cool.

If that were the case, gill, and when he comes out, Oro should immediately be 2 of the best characters in the game. Let's not strawman what I'm trying to say. What I'm saying , and this goes for all fighting games, is even if the character is canonically strong doesn't justify bull shit balance.
