      @@meathir4921 Guilty Gear, BlazBlue, KoF, etc would disagree. Those games pretty much have zero casuals and survive on their merit alone. Soul Calibur isn't at the level of Street Fighter / Tekken / Mortal Kombat. They don't have the same budget or manpower, which also means they don't have the same financial expectations. For example, Tekken 7 is considered successful for selling 2 million copies, while SF5 is a disappointment for also selling 2 million copies. The measure of success is relative.
      But back to my original point, you're comparing apples to oranges. That would be like blaming a new Metallica record selling poorly on Britney Spears releasing an album around the same time.

      you have fast punch to start hit chain on fast characters you have dropkick and blade drop/ spinflip slice (last one super conditional) to avoid dangerous low attacks and all the rushdown potential in the game, an excellent stun along with the burst counter to punish weak fast hits AS WELL AS some of the best block punishing grabs in the game he is an actual monster now with GIs not costing meter all the better BUT
      where he has been weak is with his horizontal attacks (square on ps controller) they are slow easily blocked/avoided they are hard for him to follow up with grabs when blocked and easy to tell which way to sidestep (watch the stance) and punish he can get around this with his bubble or GI/ perfect just guard you wait a sec, ult, grab or low and he then has to make a snap decision that will cost him even if he plays it right because in that moment he has to be that much better than you

    The reason maxi does more damage on a string of attacks is because a lot his moves are "Special" based on the stance you come out of. If you look real close during your very first fight against that maxi he'll swing the nunchucks back to start a new stance as an example. Which should be considered a stance.

I hope so lol...other weapons I want to include are a Morningstar mace, Chinese hook swords, Egyptian cane (like the pharaoh’s have) and sickle, and a shield by itself (instead of a character like Sophitia who has both, have two characters that are related yet split up so one takes the shield and the other takes the sword).

    What scares me about wanting to pick up Maxi, is from what I've seen at least, he doesn't seem to have many true combos, he seems to be more of a stray hit to stray hit to kill.

    Does max plays SCVI on ps4 or pc?

    Watching these players not use sidestep effectively & capitalize on juggles is extremely frustrating, lol. Unless of course I'm just way off base and they've completely changed the fundamentals of Soul Calibur.
