« Listed, hidden changes join Cody with new Street Fighter V patch »
SuperFX
The new patch bringing Cody to SFV is now available, and along with the upgrades and additions it has made changes to the game's balance.
Capcom has listed several in-game changes to character abilities, most of which are slight corrections such as Menat now being allowed to buffer commands a bit earlier to make up for timing windows or Kolin now being allowed to activate her first V-Trigger off the Frost Spike chain. However, Loïc "WydD" Petit dug into the game and discovered some unlisted changes including a nerf to Akuma's standing medium kick that makes it -4 on block.
Readers can check out Petit's list on Twitter. He is unclear on what some of the changes he has found mean, and hopes players of those characters might be able to help him discover the extent of the changes.
