  1. Air I have a question. When you said that Ed Ma has mad good fundamentals I would like to know what exactly you mean. Which aspect of his game play made you said that ?

    Another question, is that a possible chance that the blog name will change to airyang? lol

  3. i ask that u verify why Cammy is top i mean she lost most of her abusive tools i agree with the rest tho

    ReplyDelete
  4. @kyle: She can still pressure opponents very well with her dive kicks, tick throws and counter hit setups. Plus now that her normals are much improved you can actually play footsies with her and finally she still hits like a truck so i guess it only makes sense she will still be top tier.

  5. I see i hope so i herd bad things but cant believe what you hear gotta find out for myself when the DLC comes out i like to use instant air dive kick to apply pressure but now i have to waste ex bars to do it is my only concern at the moment ill just have to adapt :)

  6. Wat made makoto jump soo far ahead?

  7. @ tony89

    i think she has an easier kara karakusa, her ex hayate is supposed to break armor, her vitality is at 1000 instead of 950 and a booost on ultra one damage and there are more things i think lol

    i love her but thats too many buffs and its gonna attract vultures

  8. Dictator is not top 10 despite having favored match ups to 8/10 of the top 10? seems odd.

    ReplyDelete
  9. what about ryu man? is his cr.mk pointless now?

    ReplyDelete
  10. What makes Ken a higher tier than Ryu now?

    ReplyDelete
  11. Ken can combo his cr. hk from his cr. mp now like Ryu can. Plus I think projectiles got a pretty hefty nerf which Ryu really relied on for zoning.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Ken can't combo into sweep from a crouch strong without a counter-hit, I believe. He can stand jab, stand strong, and close stand forward into sweep though.

  13. Poor E. Honda. Went from the top to the bottom. :(

  14. whoa whoa whoa, i didn't know this post would be this popular....sorry i can't answer any of these questions just because my scene only got AE for like...5 days...and I've been only playing Yang. On top of that the competition in my scene is not high at all...n these r some of the best players in the world rating it in..i don't know why they think like that too..they didn't explain why..so yah :D. Fei Long I can understand why cause he's near broken imo.
    And NO, it will not be Air-Yang , I will stick with Ryu even if he suck balls.

  15. @Todd i can answer this one..basically Ken is like a Ryu now..can do wutever Ryu can but with better normals, deals more damage and his escape tatsu remains. Ken can now also do jab combos into sweep.

    I think Ryu is a lot weaker now cause of dmg...no escape tatsu which made a lot of matchups extremely difficult now..and his low forward is shorter and sticks out way too short...the player requires really really good footsies in order to use his low forward as a threaten poke

    ReplyDelete
  16. @Culture Ed Ma was really good with footsies...frame trap..and he's really calm.

    ReplyDelete
  17. @tony89 I can answer this as well..I don't know exactly but briefly.. Makoto's has the best forward dash now next to Abel...she deals way more dmg than ssf4...has 1000 life and more stun now. Her uppercut beats meaty and extremely hard to cross her up without getting hit by that. She can now juggle to the uppercut against any characters in the corner after combo-ed from her dash punch.
    U1 dmg buffed..n i think some of her normals are better too, i dont know which ones tho

  18. Hi Air, do you have any comment about Dictator? I understand that the cr.lk trap is now harder but I'm sure that doesn't plummet him out of the top 10.
    He has even or favored matches against all the other top 10 apart from Gief and still dominates most of the other cast.

  19. Ha good news 4 me, I main makoto n chocolate SSFIV anyway, and im pretty good ^_^

    ReplyDelete

  21. Why do you think fei long is near broken? I can understand if he was easy to play at high level but he isn't.

    ReplyDelete
  22. So Vancouver has AE now? It is at CHQ???

    ReplyDelete
  23. Wow no Chun/E.Honda/Bison/Balrog in the top 10. They were practically top 4.

    ReplyDelete
  24. @Alex his rekka is broken and he has free out of jail chicken wing. Deals extremely high dmg, good normals and a very good backdash.

    @Kururu Espot

  25. yo air,

    you may not remember me but i was the makoto you played a long set with at the tubby dog afterparty (canada cup).

    makes me happy to see she's getting some love, your prediction that she would be way better in AE seems to be right.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Air, I'm hoping to continue maining Ryu as well. How difficult will it be in AE do you think? Are the tiers reflective of popular playstyles or are these characters that much better?

    ReplyDelete
  27. Hey Air, what breaks fei's rekkas? Is it like a damage/priority thing of is it something else?

    ReplyDelete
  28. Lol, Air Fei has really good backdash, realy!? His cwing isnt that great of a get out of jail break you can easly anti air or punsish, also his rekkas are only safe if their spaced, im not saying fei isnt top but you just completly overrate him, play him yourself and see for yourself instead of just using others opinions.

    ReplyDelete
  29. @ady187 i train my friend he mains fei long. It's not to space his rekka to be safe on block. He has 3 options on wake up to make you think...if u do OS sweep chicken wing can get out, and his uppercut can hit u. If you do low jab x2 on his wake up u can make chicken wing whiff and punish, but loses to uppercut and backdash gets out for free. You can never throw on his wake up because there's no reason for Fei Long to just sit there since he has so much options. I have played Fei myself and he is OP especially in AE when everbody is nerfed and he deals way too much damage. Also his combos are really easy to connect + his low short/jab r way too fast/ good priority for a motion based character

  30. @nwm i remember you, we played till like 5 am. She's really good in AE, i will give her a shot as well :D

    @David he's hard...without the same low forward is like having no footsies..OR requires god like footsies..he just feels really different and weak when you play him in AE..once you try it you know whats up :D. But I am still maining him ATM and trying to find good use of his new buffs (st.strong cancelable...buffed close st.Rh and his ex tatsu.)

    ReplyDelete
  31. Hey air how about Guy, is he wayy better now?!! He should be number 11 lol

    ReplyDelete
  32. Struggling 8,500 BP Makoto player here. A more practical to execute kara-karakusa along with an improved dragon punch and reliable option to break focus would have been enough, in my opinion, to make Makoto an adequate character on par with the other characters. The buffs outside of that seem like overkill to me.

    I think I read somewhere that Makoto can now FADC after a landed Hayate and then land low short for combo...pretty psyched about that option if it's true. With this change the rushdown pressure will be relentless (not to mention the frame advantage for FADC to standing medium punch AKA "THE BEST DAMN NORMAL IN THE GAME").

    The guys who are already good with her will give the rest of us the blues once AE hits general distribution.

  33. I wonder did Juri get better in AE.
