Yes! Voldo got his 22_88 A+B shuffle cancel back! It's not 100% useless! (check out 1:47 to see what I'm talking about) And sorry if I missed it being previously mentioned in another thread, don't have too much time to read up on all this stuff ~

So here's the deal guys, I'm getting my hands on SC5 this Sunday while I'm in SF ~ Anything in particularly you want me to experiment with? Otherwise, keep an eye out for a crazy Voldo on stream =)

Yeah, that 22_88A+B cancel was already known. There are a few of other things I'd like you to test or see if you can figure out.

1) How difficult is his MC A+B~G? Is it as easy to be interrupted like in SC4?

2) Find some ways to combo into the full damage CE.

3) 666B is his 6:6B now, so see if 666B, 66B, 666B is still a NC.

4) See if you can cancel his MCFT 66 with B+K like in SC2 and 3.

5) HAVE FUN!

Thanks brother.

Do some playtime with his alt, and try to attempt to get high quality footage (if possible) otherwise I'd like maybe a comparison of SC4 voldo to SC5 voldo, generally what feels different, better, worse, etc.
 
Alright guys, finally got my hands on the game on Sunday, and personally I've got mixed feelings so far, but I'll get to that later.

To answer some earlier questions.

I couldn't find out if CE is comboable, pretty sure 66 in MC is not cancelable into B+K.

On block, MC HT A+B really seems interruptable right after block, so it's not nothing like SC3's ~ But it's definitely easier to do than in SC4.

666B, 66B, 666B~A+B+K is a NC (woot =)

So here's my rant ~ I *really* miss his SC4 B,B and BS B,B ~ Quick and simple tools to apply pressure. And if his shredder (SC4 A+B) is also gone, It'll be tough to adjust to (he's had that since SC2 =( ~ But I was thinking these same things when the last installment came out (I was raging about not being able to MC A+B cancel all day like in SC3) soooo my mind will likely change once I get the hang of his whole movelist and BE/CE/Guard breaking potential. I'll be playing and reporting again on the 24th, which will be (*gasp!*) The full version =)

Oh yes, check out justin.tv/iplaywinner and look towards the end of part 3 for my match. It's pure shenanigans =p

Yeah, I wasn't too thrilled to see the change to his BB. I really liked his BB in SC4, and I hated it in previous games. I'm not sure why they gave him that crappy BB back. I also heard that he only has single B in BS now. Is that true?

Shame to hear about MC A+B~G, I was hoping they would've made his MC stronger since they seemed to be reverting him to his old self. I guess not! This kind of sucks for Voldo, but hopefully his new tools will make up for that. He still seems like he can make great damage from combos.
 
So 666B is the JF input now? I wish they weren't dumbing down so much of the execution for scrubs like me, I was actually gonna practice that in SCV
 
Is the input on 666B at all strict? I don't want to feel like I'm playing Tekken and trying to do a range 0 fff+3.

All in all, I'm not really liking the changes to Voldo. I'll need to try him out myself when I get the game before I can make any real judgments, though.

Yep. 3 forwards and B.

Also, for those that missed the IPW stream on Sunday, Manta got to play a few games of Voldo on the stream. You can watch them here at the 1:08:00 mark.

Right around 1:13:00 , you notice how Voldo blindstance CR jumped-grabbed away from instead of towards the enemy? I don't know if Manta cancelled CR into opposite direction CR first but if that's what he did (my guess) then we might have a way to make a lot of space with Voldo in BT if we have to avoid pressure and try to restart an offense

Edit: Wait, could he or could he not do that in SC IV? I suddenly can't remember and don't feel like putting the game in and finding out because I'm a lazy asshole
 
Ok, I want to preface this with the fact that I have been avoiding even thinking about fighting games for three weeks now (clearing my head before SC V), so maybe this is old news, but


holy crap

1:14:18

Mantis Crawl feet towards knocked down. yay

When I played the game, all instances of CR grabs in BT made him jump the direction he was facing, which was away from the opponent. Because of this, I think landing jumping CR grabs from BT is a thing of the past.
 
wut about 4K~LF

wut about A+K dance or evades

wuts his 2K like?

does he hav a knockdown low from the front?

any new moves/properties?
 
A+K Evades are in, and his former 1A is now 2A+B but he does have a knockdown low. Dino, check the movelist discussion thread
 
For those of you that missed it, a few matches from Jan 8th that our Norcal friend Logik recorded, I didn't realize he uploaded them so long ago =p You can even hear me going nuts while re-discovering stuff for the first time ~ Voldo seems slower but still has those beastly tools -- Otherwise those were fun times, look forward to some more shenanigans tomorrow for the SF party =)

You`re the only player now that actually know how play to Voldo in SC5, Ive found this videos on YT few days ago, cool stuff concerning that the game is not out yet , and a lot of Voldo inputs are changed. I hope he will still be in top tier ;]
