We'll begin with a match between Kyabetsu & Mizoteru
Kyabetsu told me he's not fond of it [the matchup].
So here's what I wanted to ask...First, Kyabetsu.
Does he play KOF 13 a lot these times, more than SF4? How much is he involved in it?
Lately, he's not playing the game that much, he's not totally serious about it...
...But he plays the game anyway.
OK, so which game is he serious about? SF4?
Yeah, his main game is still SF4.
Alright. Mizoteru, you know a player who's well known here in France, Masatsugu, who plays Sagat.
So do you have any news about him? Do you know what he's been doing lately?
He says Masatsugu is busy with japanese idols, mainly with the AKB48 group...
Soooo he's an idol manager...OK, talk about an ultra stylish job!
That's why we don't see him much now.
That's a shame, he was a very funny guy!
Alright, thanks guys, you may begin, first to two...
Eita, do you remember the Shadaloo Showdown, where you won...
Do you intend to return to Australia this year, to defend you title there?
If he's invited this year, he thinks he'll be able to go there.
It's a matter of money, too, but if he's invited, it's pretty sure he'll go.
Second question for Eita, now that he's in Tokyo, he can play against top Gouki [Akuma] players,
Could he tell us about Infiltration's Gouki, what he thinks about it...
...And maybe, what Infiltration has that the other Gouki players don't have?
About Infiltration, he thinks he's nearly reached the peak of Gouki's potential,
There's very few unnecessary moves, he makes very few errors, he's just a huge player.
Other than Tokido, he doesn't really know the Gouki players in Tokyo, so it's not that relevant.
Now, Kindevu, do you remember the Bataclan, the crowd there, the Ogaming show,
when you came here and just beat everyone else up...
No one could beat you, even Ryan Hart lost. Now, you're back for the Stunfest...
...So, are you going to do it again, and remain totally unbeatable here in France?
That time, he was alone, so it was very stressful.
- He did super well, though! - Yeah, but he doesn't really remember that much,
he tries to forget it, he felt sick at that moment, so, yeah...
And what about the Stunfest?
I knew it!
No plans, he's just there to play and show some mad skills.
So, before we begin, Mizoteru, how often do you play against Kindevu, on the Live, or IRL?
And, Kindevu plays a lot of characters, which one do you fear the most, as a Blanka player?
They're not really used to playing against each other, but they did yesterday at Kusanagi's.
And about the character he fears, obviously it's going to be Cammy.
Of course...And look, Kindevu's just picked Cammy!
To him, the Cammy-Blanka matchup is like, 10-0.
Is it that impossible to pull off? Is there anything Blanka can do against Cammy?
If the Cammy player doesn't know the matchup, there may be room for some dirty tricks...
But with an opponent like Kindevu, it's near impossible, the chances are that slight...
Now, for Kindevu, against which Blanka player does he train in Nagoya? Are there good ones?
There are two main players, Takura and Coop. He plays with them, so it helps with the matchup.
Alright, so Taku also plays in Nagoya...
You were opponents in the Topanga B League, do you remember who won at that time?
Eita had won the first game, and Kyabetsu had won the second.
So, you were both on the B League's podium, but in the A League you did not perform that well...
So what changed between the two? Are the players that stronger in the A League?
Eita believes he did a good job in the A League, and it's just the other players
who were totally exceptionnal. So, he really got overwhelmed with the overall level.
Kyabetsu says there really was a gap between the B League and the A League. As for him,
he says it's already a miracle that he was able to win in the B League!
He's seen the chocolate croissants, so he's totally motivated now!
Don't let him get to them!
He wants three of them!
Before they leave, I'd like to ask if they have some requests for SF4's next update?
If they had to change something in the game, what would it be?
So, in Japan, people aren't really enthusiastic about that update, right?
To him, the actual version of the game is already well balanced. He'd like to see some tweaks,
but it would mostly be bringing some characters to a middle point between their current state and AE.
To Kindevu, it would be best to boost every character, but it may be hard against those
who worked *** their character. In a way, if you balance the game further, you'll end up
unbalancing it...
So that's the Japaneses' catch on it, eh? They seem to agree on that. I'd like to ask the others.
Same question for Eita and Mizoteru, here!
Eita thinks that no character is cripplingly weak in the game, so the current version is OK.
If he had to provide input, he'd say to buff characters who aren't as strong as Cammy,
Gouki and Seth. These three characters really are stronger, buffing the others would be fine.
All in all, it would be pretty negligible.
Mizoteru says that he'd put Blanka as a top tier, even though it wouldn't please the crowd.
Seriously, though, he'll continue playing Blanka whatever happens, so he's not really affected.
See, they're on a totally different mindset. They're just fine with the game.
They'll be OK with some buffs, but overall they don't really care. No whiners in Japan!
To Kindevu, as he plays many characters, he doesn't really care, he can change anytime.
Kyabetsu says he chose to play Viper because it was a broken character, to be honest.
But he has taken a liking to it, so he probably won't change, too.
So, recently, Eita tried other games like KOF, so unless Gouki becomes horribly weak,
he won't change, as learning another character takes time, which he doesn't have for SF.
