Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate

You don't.

Now, my previous statement wasn't backed by any particular evidence or decent thought. Now... well, she's broken as all hell. She beats everyone at their own game with less effort, and her 'bad on wake-up' weakness gives the other player only a slight chance of keeping her down. Mind you, we don't have 5U yet, so we don't really know what any of our characters can do. I would just induce a temp-ban on ALPHA for The Fall Classic on the grounds that she's a boss character and wait until we can dissect her data before fully enforcing the ban.

Lol. That's probably the rudest reply I've seen. "You don't." The end. Why'd you even quote gum just for that. Pretty durn cold man. But at freestepdodge people , including myself, are saying the same thing. Wait for the game to come out. Right now there are only a couple of videos of mediocre play. Nothing solid to go off of.

whoa. we aren't discussing lag. lag is not to be discussed when talking about whether she needs to be banned. but i'd like to face your alpha. see what you got.

Lol, I honestly just troll with her and don't take her seriously. Lag makes her an even mash-ier character.

But yeah, with relation to whether she should be banned for launch tournaments or not, I'm leaning towards yes, but the first couple of days after the game is released will allow us to get a better understanding of the DOA5U version of ALPHA.

Well, it's true. Unlike Soul Calibur V, there are no visual cues for just frames. Hell, I'd love a notable cue for those frame knees. To be fair, most characters only need just frames for their multi-stage throws, but still.

No idea. But then again, the whole Dynasty Warriors series hasn't really been received well in the US where people think it's all just about mashing the same button over and over and over and over and over...

Based on what was tested out so far at SJ, she does appear like she may possibly be stronger than her DOA5 incarnation with her new FLOAT K turning her 66P into a legit CB option. I'm not a huge fan of banning characters so early in a game's life or before it even releases, but ALPHA could very likely be a major threat in DOA5U. The problem is with how much money will be on the line at TFC (almost $10,000 in total for the 5U tourneys). The last thing we'd want is for everyone to have a pocket ALPHA. I play a bit of ALPHA but would never use her in a tourney because of her bullshit.

I'm definitely not against a preemptive ban for good measure.

I'm sorry, but preemptive bans are one of the dumbest things to happen in fighting games. You CANNOT make a judgement on a games balance before the game comes out. It takes months or even years of a game being played in the competitive circuit before you can even fully understand its balance.

Speaking of which. ALPHA is actually only just B-tier in FSD's most recent tier list.
