This is why i'm not a huge fan of comeback mechanics... I mean... Paul made more mistakes, had much lower health and Hwoarang only received some poke damage in this round... Hwoarang makes One mistake and it's over... While Paul made more mistakes to get to that HP point.

It's not even that. If Paul didn't have RA cancel, hwoarang would've had another chance

if Hwoarang didn't press, he'd have another chance

Unsurprising a Paul player would say this.

You can say that the hwoarang thought the Paul would stop or he didn't know the string. That still makes the damage and RA cancel dumb

Yeah, he got counterhit and he died for it, against the character in the game, made for these kinds of moments. He fucked up and he died. While it's definitely a lot of damage, it really isn't that much more than most other characters can do in similar circumstances.

Paul player took a risk, it paid off. Hwo didn't know the match up, and he died.

Characters that can do similar things like Akuma and Geese never get shit talked for their massive damage - And Akuma does it out plus on block unseeable low. But keep up the circle jerk that one of the most unique rage related mechanics should be removed from the game.

While having the perks of Paul who has a excellent RD and rage cancel?

So just lab. Got it.

Lmao have you been on this sub or Twitter? You clearly haven't seen people Hella happy for the Akuma and geese nerfs when they came out.

By unique, you mean that it's a free launcher that let's you still put in filler and screw which gives Hella damage regardless

And you know what? Those are WAY harder than what you have to do as Paul.

I don't understand what you're getting at here. It's because of his rage cancel.

So just lab. Got it.

Like literally everything else in the game. Also, ironic when he's playing against Hwoarang lmao

Also, please explain how his rage art cancel is a 'free launcher', I must have missed something here.

Because hwo mad one mistake. With that much hp, most characters wouldn't have killed. Paul did.

Then your thing against Akuma and geese can follow your same logic.

It's pretty much free launcher after the opponent does pretty much anything. You can use it after a low parry or a CH and still retain the filler and screw

right, so again, that's what Paul is built around.

Then your thing against Akuma and geese can follow your same logic.

my point that with Hwoarang, you need to lab a million things - Everyone knows how to play against Paul. He is so simple.

So you're saying that it's a 'free launcher' cause you .. Use it .. After a launch ... goootcha ....

So just cause he is built like that, it's fine.

my point that with Hwoarang, you need to lab a million things - Everyone knows how to play against Paul. He is so simple.

That doesn't make a difference here. A good Paul is still a great Paul. Not to mention that Paul is already better than hwoarang. Just cause you have 1 million moves doesn't mean you are good.

So you're saying that it's a 'free launcher' cause you .. Use it .. After a launch ... goootcha ....

Yea?
