The update appears to have over-wrote several notation icons. See: 🅰 🅱

I think they're most focused on the health and popularity of online, which means they're mostly hitting stuff that people find frustrating. Yeah, that's going to be a super-obnoxious way to patch from the perspective of pretty much anyone interested enough to read this forum, but the devs don't...

For some time I've wished for a guide that offered basic game plans for each character with a short set of moves to focus on learning. The written guide for SC5 actually did a good job of this, making it much easier to start playing new characters, but I've not found any similar resource for...

She feels like a pressure and mixup character, but I'm not sure how much of her stance stuff is real.

1AA being unsafe on block seems awfully painful, though presumably only to fast (i12?) punishes. The other changes all make sense to me though. Disclaimer: I'm bad.

Hmm, I tried mixing all of those options and it just wasn't enough. The other guy may have Just Plain Been Better at choosing their moves and timings. I did notice that they consistently either poked or step-guarded when I tried to run in, which meant my horizontals fared very poorly (I don't...

Got smashed tonight in a long casual set with a Mina; it felt incredibly hard to get in. Anything that I should be looking for, and looking to use myself? My practical move set is still on the small side.

Dumb question from someone who only really played SCV: what is the difference between AS (like Pyrrah) and TAS? Obviously the latter is an extra motion, but does it cover more distance or open more options or deal more damage or what?

Playing the SF5 alpha made me come back and check in to see if there was any news about SC6. I guess not, which makes me sad. SF is so fundamentally different that it just doesn't feel right.

I noticed slowdown on only one stage so far. It's nice to have a soul calibur game on my tablet. Worth it.

Is there anyone located in Seattle itself who plays and/or venues in Seattle proper? I'm bad and car-less, but enjoy learning games. Have never really found other Seattle players except for the buddy who got me into the game.

So I haven't really played at all in at least a year, if not two (I played at SC5 release for a while). Has any of Yoshi's stuff been altered by patches in the meantime?

Well, I've found a way to do Parting Thrust/earslicer with near 100% consistency on a 360 controller. I have LB bound to A and LT bound to B+K. Sliding my finger extremely rapidly (for me - I'm usually slow on input) from LB to LT will produce a:B+K with near total consistency after about 15...

What are the best ways to get in as Yoshi? I've been having a great time with his basic mix-ups and oki, but I'm not sure what to do when someone with a range game manages to extend the distance. Usually I use meditation stance to teleport in with an attack, or else I try to step close enough...

I've really enjoyed discovering Yoshimitsu in SC5, since I only dabbled in previous titles, but I have a question after reading this forum. As a newbie Yoshi's 6K (that quick spin-kick that hits like a truck) seems like a fantastic move, but there are a lot of complaints about nerfs to Yoshi's...

I had no experience with Hilde in SC4, but I'm interested in maining her in SC5. After reworking my control scheme to compensate, I discovered that I'm loving the result with pretty much anyone on the roster. This is with a 360 controller (yeah, I know, but it's what is always available to...

I've tinkered with Soul Calibur in the past - a bit of 3 and a dab of 4 - but plan to play more intelligently with the newest entry in the series. Still just casuals with friends, but I find that studying games is part of their fun. That's why I'm here: to ask questions and improve my study of...
