Visually I always thought she was attacking with both her sash and the projectile hence the weird properties. So I figured it was a melee attack and a projectile attack at the same time.

Man, I can't express enough how cool Alpha 2 is on every level. It was the first fighting game that made me wanna get better (even if I never could play against other people, lol). But aesthetic wise, character wise, and music wise it's so good. And now learning about so, so, SO many super weird and interesting mechanical stuff makes it even better!

Fun trivia. Ever since Alpha, Dan's super fireballs could be reflected completely in the Alpha series. You can send them in an upward angle. Dan's fireball would eventually become the second most resistant projectile in SF5 where his VT1 when fully charged would not only negate projectiles, but it would retain its full number of 10 hits.

Obviously soul spark and soul illusion are exceptionally cool, but is there anything, in Alpha or in any other SF game, that feels quite as good as predicting a jump and catching it with an early soul throw? Rose undefeated.

I don’t play KoF but I feel as if historically street fighter has given a decent amount of options universally and character specific (most characters) to deal with fireballs. What do you find the difference is? Is that difference universal or does every character just have options

@@user-wy1et9dk9w They come in different sizes from small to fully vertical, speed, velocity, elevation, stationary, staggered, sticky bomb, with counter tools being the universal role, reflectors and point attacks like literally using your standing fierce to punch the fireball. Not all characters have the same counter play, which makes the fireball game interesting because what worked on one character won't work on another.

If rose doesn't get the 2nd fireball out but does just one, her soul illusion doesn't juggle, but it gets extra damage for the rest of the game. I used to use a level 1 just to throw a single fireball. I didn't know about the extra juggle properties from two.

@JozefLucifugeKorzeniowski 9 ай бұрын

it's cool, but maybe it doesnt get as much focus as it probably should because it's start up is so glacial making it so benign its gone mostly overlooked. Alpha 2 (gold specifically) is the street fighter ive put the most hours into and when rose tosses out a soul spark is when i know i can go in full tilt with no fear.

Rose was one of my three mains back when I was in top form. My choice of Rose was for their rising grab move to punish those who tried to jump at me. The fireball was more of a supportive move. Not meant to be massed like Ryus fireball to get into fireball wars which I would always win.
