Japan really has some influence on the meta. Zangief hasn’t won a single major and nobody outside of Japan really talks about him, yet he got nerfed this hard while real threats like Rashid go ignored.

Once again, I have to stress that Gief could have gotten way worse in terms of nerfs. I know the scaling bad, but knowing the history of this character I suspected a complete gutting, so if anything im impressed he got to keep as much tools as he did Now im not saying we should shrug off these changes and call everyone dooming over Gief babies either, im more just looking at the positives and knowing that it could have been way worse. We aint frogs, so we still gotta be alert if the water starts boiling

Rumor going around that jumping headbutt hitbox got buffed

@Unserioussam328 3 ай бұрын

So just so I understand this. In past entries zangief had vile vortexes and entered the grappler lottery several times a set, right? And this mode of interaction was deemed too much. Let's ignore that a lot of the current cast run you down from full screen and hit confirm a fireball then get 3 way mix oki off every combo. So in order to compensate for spd having very low to no oki in this game they gave him mean combo and pressure tools. ... but now they're making his combo game objectively worse and giving him better oki as a trade..? Am I understanding this right? Is that the goal of the +8? Or is it given a lot less though than that and it's a nothing-burger change to prevent riots while making it easier for less mechanical players to combo with 2mp instead of hellstab?

@AnotherSanchez 3 ай бұрын

I’ve tried this but I’m not sure if this is real or fake, but after doing the bnb headbutt combo with them in the corner I jump and do down air HP and I’ve clipped them during their EX DP because of the cross up but I’m still clipped by crouching fierce or another Zangief’s lariat, either way this is sad for giefs cause most of these characters including us had the ability to take more than half your health, but unlike us we don’t have buttons like the previous dlc character Bison, so now we have to go back to hoping they “act like they won’t get command grabbed” and don’t cross jump us in our faces. (Especially with our anti air problem)

"...aaand I'm sorry" got me haha. Man this sucks but I'm hopeful the new oki will make up for the other nerfs. It seems like we got rolled back to a slightly better S1 Gief, which could be okay, assuming the rest of the cast isn't way overtuned in comparison. Ugh.

@@Vyke-k2h cr. mp linking is a secondary benefit. It's really about the extra point blank frame, as well as extra options out of Dr headbutt, including oki opportunities. But yes, having two options from headbutt adds another another layer to the opponents mental stack, which, if not a net benefit, at least mitigates the nerf considerably.

My god. If they had only reduced the scaling and kept the nerfs, I wouldn’t complain. 25% additional scaling is horrendous.

@dougsauce8004 3 ай бұрын

I think he needs a second move to add to combos because everything involves headbutt. If it were the move to mix someone on block but we had other combo filler that would be nice. But stHK only works AFTER headbutt, so there’s just no way to not headbutt in combos. Maybe create a new move on him or change the properties of some of his moves because there is just no heavy move that doesn’t apply insane scaling for combos and doesn’t launch.

I think I am done with this game. I don't play any other characters and I am tired having to fight the system as well as my opponent, damage is what Gief has and taking this away makes little sense when you needed to land a 13F HB to get it. Also, Capcom did not add the ground bounce to HB when hitting an airborne opponent but DJ got it added with his axe kick... Looking at the rest of the cast, they reverted lots of nerfs from S2 update (thanks for the scissor kick nerf). Thanks for the video.

Capcom didn't nerf Zangief enough. They should have swapped his health for Akuma's given how opponent grabs with high jump landings do as much damage as a raging demon.
