Finally played some matches with Heihachi for about 20 minutes and my worries are gone, all my old favorites are the same or better.
Once people get used to this I’ll have to chill but this is starting to fell like decent gamble if I’m up a round
My gut reaction to Heihachi is that I liked his simplicity in 7 so turning him into a resource character with the same stance everyone has now doesn’t appeal much. I just want to do -2 mids.
This was an accident but I might try and learn the spacing to do this on purpose, it's so easy to mash and get clipped there
Probably room to optimize on the DP punish, and I'm curious how well the first part can be adapted for spacing. Might look into midscreen doll stuff more.
