360 for t hawk has whiff animation now...? wtf

[psychochronic]

We call it "the handshake".

[fenrir805]

Are you talking about hawk? He's way better in this game then he was in the other games.

[DevinAmir1]

Slightly safer? That move is safe on block. Having a safe on block move that instantly gets Hawk in + no whiff animation would be overpowered. He would fly in, and do a throw loop until he won, and it wouldnt even be a theoretically fair trade, it is obviously broken.

Also how the hell is lariat better than Hawk DIve? it doesn't help Gief get in nearly as fast as Hawk's Dive, nor is it safe on block. Hawk has a far easier time against the fireballers because of his new dive.

[ninjachipzanuff]

t-hawk's game revolved around tick into 360 in ST, how does whiff animation help him? the fair trade off is supposed to be that his diving attack is a little safer on block? that's bullshit, that move still sucks ass compared to lariat even with slightly safer landing after block.

[DevinAmir1]

They attempted to keep the top at the top, while taking away their most abusable thing, and moving up the bottom tiers.

also Honda DID need that, because he had, and still has terrible matches versus fireball characters, it's not like it helps him that much anyway.

[ninjachipzanuff]

yes

[R0YB0T]

Lol does it really?

[ninjachipzanuff]

they kept the bottom tiers bottom and kept the top tiers top

look at honda, jab headbutt goes through fireballs, what the fuck, he didn't need that

[R0YB0T]

hes actually a lot better now, but he has huge weaknesses vs some characters.

honda is a bad matchup for him

[ninjachipzanuff]

why make a character who sucks overall even worse?

come on, sirlin...
