Rush won an early copy of the limited edition but he doesn't get it until Friday which sucks because if he got it last night we'd all be over my house probably with no sleep playing it right now.
I still can't believe that both CH 1B RO A,K and CH 6A, RO A,K is all guaranteed. Pretty crazy.
Also like Barry said, if you tap G after any transition you'll cancel out of it but the slowest cancel is easily the LI cancel. Like people before have mentioned, he has to transition from LI to some other stance before it cancels and it's slow as hell. It does this with 4Bg even. I was trying to use that to see if I could stop and start up again but now that is even slower than it was in SC4 so it's not really effective at all.
On the other hand, he cancels that RO A pretty damn fast now, like SC2 speed. You can easily fuck with someone now doing 1B,Ag and start up another string. As far as 1B RO K series, the RO KK can't be delayed and the only mixup is either doing RO K and then stop (which is actually cool because he recovers from one kick a lot faster, once again like SC2 speed) or do RO KA which is the low slash of course. Still didn't get to test the safety of that low because everyone always got hit by it.
The speed of FC 3A's recovery is so fast that often I found myself waiting to long after the move and would transition into another stance instead of getting the RO A/B/K that I wanted. You have to hit A/B/K almost as soon as he stops spinning the chucks low because that transition is almost instant.
6B4 now performs the propeller nunchuck shield, not 66B4. Doesn't seem you can cancel it as fast as you used too anymore which sucks, but it is funny when they try to wait for it to be over and then right when you cancel and they run in they get blasted in the face with LI A lol.
Moves I didn't see at all were old 1B, 44AB, and old 44K. Could be different notations though, I was just so hungry to play competition that I never looked through his move list.
Edit: ALSO, now that GIs are hardly used it's gonna take time to really not worry about them anymore. People nowadays usually want to save their meter for BE/CEs so they don't do GIs but maybe that'll change as time goes on? Anyhow, you don't need to do things for GI bait anymore or worry about people that use the age old SC mixup of 'attack at disadvantage/GI'. For instance people used to do stuff like 2A on block into another 2A with the second 2A counterhitting because the attacker tried a slower move after blocking the first 2A. Then the next time, the person might do 2A on block and then GI right after knowing he's trained his opponent to do something fast after they block his 2A. Those kind of situations you don't have to worry about really anymore because people don't GI. Will that change? We shall see.....
