Thoughts about what Capcom can do about the Avatar system

After finally paying some attention to this revolutionary mode (for fighting games at least) that they made, I wish Capcom won't just go halfway with this and go all the way. In my opinion these are things they should improve, in order of importance:

  1. The glaring design flaw of Avatar fighters only having one move for each motion input. e.g. we can't have quarter circle forward + punch and quarter circle forward + kick for the same Avatar character. This is stupid and pointless, and makes our Avatar less enjoyable than the regular cast. Definitely needs fixing right away.

  2. Release the locked Avatar gear and colors that for whatever godforsaken reason you are still keeping out of the players, yet we can plainly see World Tour NPCs wearing them, some since release! Wrestling gear, footpads, black color Ryu/Ken gi, so much more! I get that you're stingy and want to drip feed content to us, but even in this there should be limits, man. It just feels spiteful at this point.

  3. There should be customizability in the winning poses and taunts as well - e.g. choosing a Ryu style should not lock you into using Ryu's winning poses and taunts. This would give your Avatar characters so much more personality.

  4. Imagine a custom Avatar Arcade ladder mode, where you can customize your opponents! You can choose whether you fight the regular cast, or your own Avatar characters that you have saved. You can choose the stage and music for each opponent, as well. Then have your custom Avatar Arcade ladder be shareable online for others to fight! That would be so cool.

What are your thoughts on this?

Tracksuit location

For those that’s looking for the tracksuit you have to go to Old Nayshall and fight the NPCs for the drop. It is a rare drop so be ready for the grind.

You can also fight the none violent NPCs to get the top as well.

Happy hunting!

New JP Dev Column article about Random Avatar Battles among other things has been posted on the main sub. I posted the relevant translated comments by another user on the comments of this one as well.

https://www.reddit.com/r/StreetFighter/s/6MT4iG08XD

A few key details that caught my attention:

  • Gear stats will still count
  • same input restrictions on moves remain the same
  • you will be able to Equip perks for each gear slot (up to 7)
  • there are hidden damage boost/damage reduction values to reduce the impact between gear values between players

In every trailer we have seen this guy take a beating and learning new ways to fight.

I finally found his training top and decided to make him.

Special move tier lists for Avatar Battles

Since random online avatar battles and avatar arcade is being added, I’d like to take the opportunity to plug my series ranking every special move and super for avatars.

Get a head start and know what’s good in the meta!

By the way, I’ll also be ranking Ingrid’s move and specials with an addendum post once she comes out, so please look forward to that.

Does anyone know where I can find the top? I MUST have it for my female Avatar!

I know it's simple but it's cute! I need to have it! She's in the park with 3 other women doing yoga!
