    Every Lars team is cheap. Even Lars/Dr. B.

    Ye I think Lars is now Asuka's 2nd best partner.

    1) Bruce
    2) Lars
    3) Julia/Michelle
    4) Everyone else
    5) Lings

    Gussy how can you put Feng and Lei in top 10?
    Both have very inconsistent juggles and problems making use of their stances.
    Feng does not have very good juggle damage and Lei is a poor punisher among other things.
    I do respect that both can evade well and tag in very safely and have some nice BS to help their play but I don't see why you would put either of them top tier.
    Explain you thinking man!! :mad: ;)

    Also,
    I think you put Lee too low. He's very good in this game IMO.

    Feng is super good, one of the hardest chars to step upclose due to his b4 keeping people in check, df1 0 on block, I think that b1 is i10 or i11, amazing for CHing, and he has gdlk lows at range 2 with db3 and qcf1, with qcf1 even going under mids and CH launching, and his juggle damage can be dealt with by having a strong damaging partner. I think his ss4 is amazing, even if its just at the wall, with how the tag system works, he can get crazy damage off a simple 50/50 by TAing his ss4 combo. And even if his juggle damage is weak by himself, his neutral damage is insane and his b1+2 shiet is amazing as a tag cancel.

    Lei is up there for a similar reason to Feng, with the tag system allowing him to boost his damage off his low option on his 50/50 with db4 and his BT low sweep. His ff3 is pretty silly, again really benefits from the tag system because you can just do ff3~5 and then mix it up on block to throw off their punishes, I believe you only get a guaranteed generic d4 as a punish for all options which is pretty low and it'll tag buffer on hit no matter what you do afterwards on hit. He probably has one of the best tag cancels in the game with b3+4~B allowing him to block pretty much instantly and his solo damage is NUTS. His punishers does bring him down in fairness, maybe down 1 row but no more. The tag system just really benefits him, Feng as well.

    I really don't think Lee is a good char in this game, he's amazing as an assist character with his carry and TA fillers, but as a character himself, he's pretty bad, his lows aren't amazing for breaking turtles down, he has solid keepout but when the opponent has the lifelead, what is he gonna do? db3 and db3+4 are pretty slow for non-crush lows. B4 is sick but if you go up to Lee and block it, you can easily force your own momentum. He relies too much on CHing the opponent rather than actually opening the opponent up with standard mid/low mixups. Also his whiff punishers are reallllllly bad (slightly resolved with Violet's cossacks but still lacks a ranged fast whiff punisher)

    Ofc, just my opinion :P

    My stances on Feng and Lei are the same as Gus. I would also consider Feng to be probably the best character for tagging out mid-combo with f+3,4 (works on launch, pre-bound with some chars like Drag and Wang and post bound) and f+4 (doing right after launch works with Leo, Lars and Bruce, to essentially give him a tag bufferable hopkick).

    Actually, on that note I will do a top 5 best partners for Feng:

    1. Leo
    2. Bruce
    3. Dragunov
    4. Wang
    5. Lee

    I think Lee is strong in this cause of running 3,4. Yes, his poking game is somewhat hurt by the tag system, but raw-tagging against him is really dangerous because of that move, it can punish raw tag at almost any range. Also safe on block. Not to mention he has Violet as a partner. Having clones give you less to think about, it's a big reason why Fighting GM does so well at tournaments.

    You can say you have to work less with clone teams but you could also argue that it's harder to win with because if you're downloaded with one, that's the whole team done.

    And yeah, Feng's f3,4~5 as a bound ender is amazing for certain characters, like Hwo coming in with ff3 or Anna coming in with qcf to track then FC mixup, etc. that face down feet toward positioning is sick.

    I think 7th went to Zeki Sanders and that Dave guy who played Hwoarang/Forest.

    I think I got 9th along with Cardboard Fox. I dunno who the other 2 could have been.
