During a previous Capcom-Unity podcast, Seth Killian talked about how powerful the newly announced characters are, naming Vega and Law as the top contenders of the six fighters recently announced for Street Fighter X Tekken.
He also went on to discuss how important footsies and pokes are in the new title. You can hit the link above to check out the podcast yourself, or hit the link below to find a full transcript of details.
Notes from the podcast
• Vega is really strong. Has long range pokes. Rolling Crystal Flash is very effective in this one.
• Any move that holds the opponent in place is very valuable, so you can tag while Vega is doing his Roll to setup other stuff.
• He feels out of the newly announced Street Fighter characters (Balrog, Juri and Vega) Vega is the strongest.
• Footsies are very important in Street Fighter X Tekken, very centric to the gameplay. There's a lot of poking and footsies in general.
• Juri is faithful to her Street Fighter 4 counterpart.
• Seth feels Law is the best out of the Tekken characters that were recently announced (Paul, Law and Xiaoyu).
• Killian added that they're not even in the home stretch for character reveals or the innards of the game.
