I would also like to thank Namco for helping to make these launch events happen. We in there!

 

I need as much SCV content as I can get to keep me sane until the Feb 3rd. TY in advance Namco/Kayane!

 

Some Really Good Stuffs from Namco Bandai and Kayane! I am definitely going to be watching the stream.

 

This should start in 90 minutes of me posting this. Spread the word.

 

60 Minutes.

 

It's on!

 

Siegfried annoys me

 

I would like give a shout out to Kayane by saying:

"I'M ON FIRE!"

 

Ok, ZWEI has the coolest looking throw in SCV then, lol.

Everyone on freeplay or tournament passed out against Kayane and her Leixia's WS B BE xD This move has autostep, TC, autoGI, tracking both side, safe on block, launcher property and isn't backdash whiff punishable. A good broken move that I'am sure RTD, Mick, JTB, Tsubasa noticed and will use a lots lol)

We will have to find something against this, I tried horizontals lows of Xiba (33AA BE and 1_3A+B), but it's punishable so it wasn't a very good option, especially because I have to do the same move over and over again on okizeme, this makes a lot's predictable.

Hope that you still enjoyed somes matchs.

Hayate

Let's say welcome to a NEW X WINNING/BITCHING SEASON... I hope that Kayane agree with the high level of "brokeness" of that specific move... for certain watching Kayane's Leixia in the stream was awesome; it was like there's no way to WIN against her; it looks like Leixia was tailored to Kayane specifications or something...

Brain dead move #1 confirmed.

 

What the hell are you guys talking about? Isn't it confirmed that Kayane/Leixia are the same person? OF COURSE she'd dominate. :)

 

LOL! XD

This move is excellent yeah, but you'll compare Leixia's damages compared to a character like Natsu or Astaroth. You still didn't see them enough, but when you'll see that they can damage half the bar with simple combos and throws, with only one brave edge or CE...you'll stop thinking about this Leixia's move.

This move is almost the only way for her to make good damages, her simplest combo 3B 3B+K has ridiculous damages, around 41 only if I remember well. She has to take many risks by feinting, approaching the opponent and hit with many moves to make damages. So she has this move to save her in difficult positions, it's limited by the bar meter.

Also, I was used to instant FC3B by ducking and standing up very fast with FC3B. Now, I instant WS B BE so that you don't see me ducking so it's surprising. But I don't think all Leixia will be able to make this move as efficient. You need anticipation.

Remember Kilik's Asura dance on SC4? Auto-GI mid, avoid lows and throws, safe (or not a good punishment), difficult to step, can ring out, can guard crush on just frame...and WITHOUT bar meter. So stop crying at the moment and just go training to find a solution, just as I did for Kilik's asura by the past.

By the way, I uploaded the video on my youtube channel :
