I hate to be that guy, but...

Why is this even a discussion in a game that has an infinite stage?

It's part of SC. If it ruins your SC experience, then either deal or don't play.

Lol yep, if you played SC4 online you'd quickly realize, if you saw your opponent pick Hilde (you could actually see which character they were choosing unlike in SC5.. lol) then you'd pretty much pick 1 of the 2 caged levels so she couldn't ring you out.

I knew one Hilde player that would only 'join' ranked matches because if you join a match, you get the ability to pick the stage rather than if your the room creator, and they'd choose the SMALLEST little circus level... oh my god!!! It was literally 1 mid strike into the launcher, it was over... T_T

RO is one of the reason why people that play SC have to have a good brain, position is important and the many types of players make this hard to do, people who say that RO is cheap are the same people who can't place their character very well. It is cheap? No- if anything makes the game deeper.

the same could be said of wall combos. especially in tekken and DOA, if you're dumb enough to get backed into a wall be prepared to eat some damage!
 
I'm in the "meh" category. RO's are in no way completely cheap or fair but theyre definitely something I utilize and stay aware of. dont really have much else to say about it...

I do think itd be interesting if Project Soul incorporated stage change stages in future games (like Asta's stage) where you lose a chunk of health if youre RO'd on the first part of the stage instead of auto dying. could be a cool dynamic and add to stage variety at the selection screen.

That's just like Dead Or Alive's ring out system! It's totally badass! You Ring them out and you end up in a different part of the level, and the battle resumes.

Like DoA, I wouldn´t really complain as long as auto dying RO still remains, for me is vital part of SC
 
Ringouts in the old SC are one of the best elements of the series. But in SCV a bunch of characters can RO from the middle of the ring just if you back/sidestep at the start of a round which is bullshit. I've been RO'd in a tourney match by Alphas 33b just because I backstepped, I was then carried out of the ring.
 
Funny tale from way before I joined 8WR. In a SCV player match lobby, someone was calling everyone out about the way they play, including me for the ring outs. Cue the match we had where he beat me 3-0, ALL BY RING OUT!!!

His response:

All of those were completely unintentional! I apologize!
