Compared to the stats, shes not as good as you were defending her out to be.
Which is why i mentioned any of this in the first place !?

Farz that's vanilla sf4, we were defending the all powerful super chun.

Vanilla chun's still pretty damn good though as shown by those stats.

To be honest, KO seems so unlucky... it would be a shame if he missed out on victory AGAIN after coming so close for so many years.

K.O.Kiki

KO's playing Yang this year, right?

Good stuff

LOL no you were, nathan wasnt.
I dont disagree that she powerful in ssf4, she damn is.

I never said Vanilla Chun was the best character in the game, I said she was good. I said SSF4 Chun was possibly #1

This is on tonight!

Trying to tell us something about chun that we didn't already know?!

Also, where were u on GGPO last night?! Got it working but most connections weren't great

K.O.Kiki

Another thing to note.

The following games didn't have ANY character represented more than once in final Top 4 team standings:
Melty Blood Actress Again 2v2
Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown 3v3

Thus proving my theorem that they are the most balanced fighters out there. (Tekken 6 Bloodline Rebellion came close, 2 Marduks).

Terry can I play you sometime?
Don't think I've had the pleasure of your Hugo yet.

The 3S grand final was pretty tense, would love to see the other fights.

And yeah, 3S is definitely not balanced and you get loads of Chuns, Yuns, etc, but I don't see that as a worthwhile reason to rebalance (I presume that was the inference). Part of what makes 3S so fun is trying to overcoming the odds thrown at you.

K.O.Kiki

True.

That's why I play Q.

Best character.
Best music.

Anyway, predictable results but tbh we all seen it coming with 3s xD INO Japan ironically with a distinct lack of INO (being replaced with none other than Nitto Yun) ripped it up. Kuroda is too sick. K.O family looked very strong to me but tbh K.O just can't shake the KO CURSE!!!

OK lets take that pattern into consideration.
Sagat being used the most, obviously overpowered and therefore nerfed in the next release.

Which is why SF3 online should be rebalanced, nerfing characters like chunli. I know at this stage you have change your mind on re balancing the game some what but initially you were against the idea, anyway i was just highlighting my old point, not sure why you're highlighting yours.

Why don't we take this discussion over to the £rd strike thread, it's spilling out all over the place at this point.

I was never against the idea of a rebalance of Chun/Yun/some hitboxes etc. I even said it in my opening post :pac:

As I posted in the 3s thread I was worried Capcom would do a total overhaul of the game and make it so it's not 3s anymore at heart. I'm all for changing stuff that makes sense. Just don't go overboard Capcom and please listen to your fans ^^

Anyway sorry to go OT

If you nerf Chun and Yun then there'll still be an established "best character" or two, and the SBO results would have them, whoever they are, in a lot of teams instead. This is true for every game really. (Not that I think this is a reason not to rebalance the game, toning down Chun and Yun could be great for it if done properly)

I actually think having 4 non-top tier characters in the top 4 teams at SBO is pretty impressive - I definitely doubt it's the tournament with the most Chun/Yun/Ken at the top end in recent times anyway (and the Ken was Kuroda so that doesn't count :pac:).
