Probably a Kara. Like his forward kick Kara into grab. Now he probably has an armored move he can Kara grab into. (EDIT : to clarify. Potemking Kara cancel isn't some magical bullshit. It's tied to a move. His 6k moves him forward frame one. Even better he can keep the momentum. So canceling a normal move frame one into a special let him keep all that and do a Kara buster that slide forward. What I'm saying is that they gave frame one armor on another normal move of potemkin. Meaning he could Kara cancel into buster from this different move than 6k. And get frame one armor for a few frames. Making pot Chara cancels into a choice and not just a skill check. As Kara canceling is always better. Now obviously he already has many armored specials. But armored mega fist seems cool.)

[@NexSilva]

I must confess, I have no idea what they MIGHT have changed with Millia in this display. Baiken able to guard crush/ parry from blockstring is a nice throwback. Jack-O dash cancelling is scary. IDK what I'm suppose to see with: Giovanna, Millia (as stated before), or Delilah. I think some are faster start-up, but I'm clueless with Millia

[@fallonrishiva7841]

I think Mirazh into grab was faster, so either you can cancel it or they reduced the recovery by a lot. Maybe, I'm not gonna pretend to be confident in this

[@bingo2underscores]

bedman’s install recovers faster now, so you can activate it in the middle of combos more often

[@Dragoonking17]

For bedman? the exploding head flies further than before. Also he wasn't able to 2S after using his install super. So I guess the recovery of the super was reduced.

[@Miyamoto-x7o]

gio gets a meaty set up after her 5k.6p.623S string

[@marcusjones6098]

Glad I'm not the only one. Maybe that backdash before j.K was shorter and maybe her tension meter was building faster. I'm guessing it must be a frame data thing or something to do with tension or damage if it isn't obvious. While I don't pay much attention to him 'cause I think it's a bit at this point, Millia guy mentioned some changes that I thought were cool, one of which I had already thought of which was making Artemis air-ok. They also said giving fastfall another directional option. Addendum: After reading comments @horizunu caught the same thing I thought I did which was Millia's airdash before jK was incredibly short. If that's the case, it means gapless air blockstrings and combos. No more get 5p'd out of jH > dash > jH. If that's true, Millia's pressure is about to get disgusting.

[@horizunu]

list of changes (from trailer) feel free to comment if you notice something i'll edit [will go in order of appearance] Ky: can reliably combo from H Vapor Thrust while opponent is in shock state Sol: Heavy Mob Cemetery can be comboed into, Fafnir can be normal cancelled into (Vortex too) + has wallbounce property May: Counter hit 5H launches opponents, Dolphin jump is faster (?) Chipp: New special - Tightrope Axl: 6K is special cancellable, Faster ressengeki follow-up + tornado moves further (?) Faust: no need to 5D to launch items (probably a separate command) Leo: backturn special is safe on block + further pushback Elphelt: bomb super can be comboed into (will HKD on wall) Asuka: Can change test case in super + mana will drain faster the longer you linger in super Zato: full eddie refill on cmd grab HC: j.2k has ground bounce property Testament: Stain will pop after throw Baiken: Hiiragi is dash cancellable after parrying (might be a seperate input), S Tether pulls opponents closer Ram: downward sword throw (has guard crush) Gio: hard knockdown off cmd dash 214K Goldlewis: spend security meter to cancel into other Behemoth Typhoons Pot: armored pot buster (he needs it), can flick asuka cubes now Johnny: Mist finer will kill projectiles (ex. 1st hit of baiken tatami mat destroying ky and testament projectiles) Jack-O: servant kick is dash cancellable (also its green) Slayer: 6K (hold) is special cancellable into bite (is also faster), P dandy step is faster (?) Bedman: Bomb error goes further, Install super will recover quicker (?) ABA: grounded counter hit danzai can be comboed from, Danzai armor is active earlier into the move Nago: Blood pop from wall is comboable into blood super, using super will also instantly drain nago's hp depending on his blood during blood rage Anji: Fuujin is cancellable into Fuujin I-No: Can now send another note while one is already present (will kill the present note), Chemical love will carry over momentum from airdash (?) Millia: (seems to be her air normals will instantly come out after air dash not sure) Bridget: can change direction of starting momentum in roll, j.D comes out faster (?) Sin: Raw gazelle step, beak driver follow up now tumbles opponents allowing for reliable pick-ups

[@GamerChimp44]

HAPPY CHAOS j.P affect jump momentum (reduce vertical velocity) j.2K slightly ground bounce TESTAMENT Stain explosion now activate on throw (Possible hurtbox reduction on grave reaper) BAIKEN Far "Hiiragi" parry can be dash canceled RAMLETHAL VALENTINE New special move : Ramlethal throw her S sword in the ground in front of her, causing a guard crush, big pushback and then exploding (maybe has a H version) (estimation) Startup : 22 frames (24 on crouchers) / Move total duration : 43 frames (around 27 frames of recovery) / AT LEAST +23 on block (Guard crush) / Explode around 81 frames (The sword planted in the ground cannot be recovered when passing on it ?)

"Potemkin buster" gain one hit of armor (non karacanceled version ?) (on frame one ?) JOHNNY "Mist finer" (all versions) can destroy projectiles (at least on clash level 2) (Its maybe a projectile now) JACK-O' "Servant shoot" can now be dash canceled (at least when hitting a servant) SLAYER 6[K (the faint) recover faster BEDMAN? "Error 6E" (H version) gain a lot of horizontal range A.B.A "Judgment and Sentiment" now launch high on grounded counter hit (on all hits ?) NAGORIUKI "Blood rage" now launch very high on hit, allowing for combo extension (with high scaling) ANJI MITO Charged "Fuujin" can now be canceled into any other special move (maybe?) and have a different animation. INO "Antidepressant Scale" can now be done one it is already on the screen, destroying the previous projectile (can or cannot do that if the projectile connect ?) MILLIA RAGE Can do a short air backdash that doesn't carry momentum BRIDGET "Rolling Movement" trajectory can now be altered SIN KISKE "Gazelle step" can now be done without any other special move "Gazelle step" give higher horizontal momentum Conclusion : A lot of spooky stuff, and i hope you didn't removed rensen charge input ASW, or im coming for you

[@youcantbeatD]

I like this thing fighting games has been doing where they start out really simple and then add more sick mechanics as time goes on. It's usually after some dlcs and constant sells too so you get a much cooler version of a game for cheaper instead of playing the simpler one.

[@OccuredJakub12]

Also tbh it's easier to balance a simple game around adding new mechanics that you know will fit with the existing gameplay rather than just adding crazy bs from the start and realizing that you made an unbalanced mess that you then have to somehow fix

[@HabitualThinker]

That’s.. not really what happened here but that’s an agreeable opinion I guess

I know this message is not gonna be read by ArcSys, but still: PLEASE, for future update: 1. ARCADE MODE ENDINGS ARTS and its tab in the Gallery so we can see which characters we finished this mode as. Maybe even 1 art for regular boss and 1 for secret one. 2. PLEASE, M.O.M. mode or equivalent. Single player content is sparse! 3. Actual COMBO CHALLENGE mode (per character) with achievements and in-game money prices for completion. 4. LOCAL SCORE RANKINGS (better if with initials) for single player modes! 5. Please separate AVATAR ITEMS to its own button in the fishing mode. It's terrible to earn money for certain things and get avatar stuff instead (that most of us don't even use...) 6. Rebalance money earning for single player modes. Make it at least 20,000 for first time Arcade, 10,000 subsequent; 200 per enemy defeated in Survival and double it after every 10 enemies beaten, and so... (Some of us want to unlock stuff, get in-game money, without going online all the time). 7. I know these are looooong shots, but: INSTAKILLS (I know they're not good for multiplayer, but they were AWESOME and a trademark of the franchise). 8. Alternate costumes based on classic attire for certain characters! Especially Dizzy. 9. Instrumental only option for music.
