Lololol well looks like everyone's worst nightmares have come true. It's Karin!
No, really, can't fathom how she's such a popular character. Hopefully she'll play fun because she looks so fucking generic rich spoiled anime girl. Then again, #1 in Japan. Gotta get that ojou/tsundere. This rounds out the set of 4 characters we haven't seen in a while, killing all hope for Alex and others as release candidates. A few takeaways from the Capcom Unity blog:
- Seems to fall more on the footsies side of the scale
- Has a command dash for pressure
- Another anti-zoning V-Skill? Fuuuuuuck yooooooou
- Her V-Trigger seems to change her into rushdown giving her a new rushing special that leads directly into a bunch of different mixup options
Also Capcom announced the Capcom Fighting Network (CFN), a community tool being baked into the online infrastructure of SFV. Seems like it's going to be their eSports hub with features including:
- See where battles are happening all over the world on a "heat map"
- View player profiles and detailed match statistics
- Designate “rivals” throughout the world and monitor their performance
- Register friends and follow your favorite players
- Search and watch replay files
- Send online battle invitations
- Check out the latest patch and tournament news
