Which is...? Tina's grab damage is insane when used to punish whiffed holds.

omfg thank you lol

Maybe you Alpha players should make a post to dis spell all the myths about her being OP and stuff. People who fight against her always make her sound god-like even though she has some giant shortcomings.

tbh I'm the only alpha player i know lol well... code master too. But i just find it funny how every person that says she's BS or broken or cheep or whatever as soon as the match starts they back up??? Like what part of no wake up kicks are they not getting lol that means apply something known as pressure oooor die.

I used to main Alpha back in 5. I know all her shortcomings and strengths so I might be tempted to help back up that post

IMHO, Alpha is no higher than A Tier (which isn't bad at all, and is above average) because she relies heavily on offense pressure and her sheer damage output threat from her 3 CB's and her 236236T. Defensively she struggles against pressure characters. Hell, Ayane can pressure her. She has to rely on her parries and 7P/7K alot when placed on defense.

Another very unique weakness that very likely gets overlooked is that Alpha's block punishment is ass. She needs to rely on her neutral, breakable grab to punish unsafe moves since she has no i7 grabs, and her i10 grab isn't exactly a huge threat. In other words, you can YOLO Alpha ALOT more than say Hayabusa.
