I was thinking, maybe Jide was right, we do need a VF5 tears list thread. Every conversation we try to have about character balance always ends up with somebody getting defensive about their character of choice cry So here's a list of the arguments frequently used to to halt all further discussion:

* Akira: "...but he doesn't have a full-circular!"
* Aoi: "...but she has a slow jab!"
* Brad: "...but he can be low punched out of shoo shoo!"
* Eileen: "...but she's the lightest character in the game!"
* El Blaze: "...but he's not a midget, he's just small!" (yeah i have nothing, either nobody likes/plays him or he's actually considered balanced shocked )
* Goh: "...but he's slow/linear/short range/doesn't do enough damage/a zombie!"
* Jacky: "...but his throws don't do much damage!"
* Jeffry: "...but his floaters are punishable!"
* Kage: "...but TFT is breakable!"
* Lau: "...but his sweep is semi-circular/his strings are mostly punches!"
* Lei Fei: "...but his p,p is not THAT good when you think about it!"
* Lion: "...but his lows are punishable!"
* Pai: "...but most characters do max damage combos on her!"
* Sarah: "...but she does chip damage!"
* Shun: "...but he needs to drink first!"
* Vanessa: i'll let somebody else fill this one because i'll be accused of being biased although something along the lines of "...but she can't be at both stances at the same time!" is frequently repeated to her defense, god knows i've used that line a million of times cry
* Wolf: "...but throws/evade p+k can be escaped!"

I hardly think that's Jacky's weakness. Probably everything ending high would be a weakness.

* Wolf: "...but throws/evade p+k can be escaped!"


But one delayed throw = 70-80 damage. Wolf's biggest weakness is probably the lack of a true 14 frame mid or how slow his moves are in general.

Haha I love this too erd. I specifically like how the only thing Akira players ever say is bad for him is that he has no full circular...

Here would be what I would bitch about for Sarah: "but she can't employ a serious 14f mid conditionment from + frames in Flamingo"

Let me fill in for you what Vanessa players would bitch about then: "But she doesn't have a 13f mid full circular + on block move that launches on NH and CH!"
