    I bet a whole bunch of his stance transtitions are fully punishable, and the only way for him to get good striking damage is if he takes those risks

    cuz Shun cant get advantage anymore. you could nitaku after CH 3P in 5, but no longer in R.

    plus, there are tons of disadvantage for shun in R (such as 8K+G, and 64P was deleted etc...)

    other charas can decrease DP really easily in R, and Shun cant do anything if he doesnt have more than 6 DP.

    there are too many disadvantage for him, so i cant write all of them here

    I dont know bout 5R ver.C tier list...
    but in VF every character has basically the same weapons to create a damaging offense.Some characters can cause higher damage than others with less effort,some have to take more risk to do high damage or do less damage in general...like in every other bemu too.
    VF balancing is nearly perfect so dont worry u get overpowered a lot once u know what to do 4 retaliation...

    To get good retaliation u need the most important aspect of VF:A good defense...u need fuzzy guard,eteg,teg,knowledge of ur opponents moves and strings.While u learn more about the opponents offensive options the opponents offense gets weaker and weaker.If u got all that u come to hardest things to improve

    Tiers dont matter much in casual play.. Only maybe in highlevel Japanese tournaments.

    Could be true...
    Now to find out more about this: We know Fuudo won WCG 2009 with lowest VF5 ver.C tier gainst non japanese players.Was it just luck
    4 him to qualify amongst all them japanese top players or did he place constantly well in japanese tournaments?Does he have better and more constant results with his top tier VF5R Lion in Japan now?
    ...Itazan was better with his higher tier VF5 Shun than he is now with his dropped 5R Shun,wasnt he?

    Could some of the hardcore followers of the japanese scene tell me bout results of top players like Jin,Homestay,Koedo,Chibita
    and how their results changed during the progress of VF and the tiers

    Ive always thought that tiers are mainly about how easy it is to do well with characters in low/mid level play.. You can win with any characters and the tiers overall dont matter that much..

    Apparently this is something thats not easy for me to explain in english.. I meant that tournament success in, say Europe-level is not down to what character you play. Some characters may be easier to play than others but its still down to personal skill, not the character. Im not really aware that anyone would have done any 'counterpicks'. There arent characters that would be so weak that you couldnt win tournaments with them. Weak != difficult to play is what I meant. With some characters you simply have to work a bit more.

    Somebody else could give us their definition of a 'tier'.

    Maybe they should name it Battier-List.

    The higher the rank the higher the crazy shit you can pull off with the character.

    No, they're actually slightly contradictory. They can't be only relevant in High level play and still tell you something about low/mid level play.

    I think the tiers are formed with high level play and refer to that. If they were formed at Low or intermediate level they would be different. For example, Sarah is low on the list in VF5.c, but flamingo kills new players. They might argue (and they do, i've heard) that she's broken. Eileen is higher as you can play a low risk game and do decent damage, but she becomes a lot less safe if you can't hitcheck, fuzzy and ETEG.

    I think the list changes again for online as well. new move become viable because people can't react. Zenk Flip [​IMG]

    Sorry if I wrote incoherently, havent been feeling well today due to soemthing I ate.

    I suggest we make a poll thread where people rank the characters according to their opinion, and there would be two polls, for intermediate level and high level [​IMG]

    just played R these couple days, and i now understand why shun is at the bottom.

    he doesnt have a lot of choises when he has less than 6 dp. and every charas can decrease dp in the combos and after k.o., so getting dp is much harder for shun now. however, i think he can be S or A rank when he has more than 10 dp.

    i played with samejima (he uses vanessa mainly) and some of his friends yesterday, and i was remembered how hard to play againsr jp players. lol

    well R is soooo much different w 5.
