That character was the reason I thought Kazuki wasn’t going to get in.
Huge news!

Yeah, I thought neither one was going to get in. Happy there back.
Perhaps SNK will make a double presentation on November 16th? Who knows. I’d also like to see Iroha making a comeback on season 2.

That would be awesome. Never thought of that.
Let’s hope they just release both of them at the same time in November…even better!

Yubizawa SamSho tournament ongoing in Japan. Lots of money to be won so you might want to search for that on YouTube or twitch as it probably attracted some good or famous players.
First half has SamSho matches, day 1, of Yubizawa cup (second half are SFV matches) that were held yesterday.
At 1:06:07 a Shizumaru player is part of the SamSho community we play offline with every Thursday. These guys are waaaaay better than I am…by miles. Also 2:00:50 has another Shizumar player from our local community.
Today’s results - day 2 - are in, including the GF winner, but footage is not yet in YT archive.

Amazing tournament. High level japanese players. They are so methodical and technical. Way different than their western counterparts. Here we just see a lot of jumping and H Slash mashing. Thanks for sharing!

I have not yet seen day 2 but another one of our local guys was in top 8: Gamera, a Shiki player.
He’s precisely like what you described and he doesn’t waste any buttons. He always takes my health with just one combo and four medium pokes 
I swear, he hardly uses any specials on me (I play Darli, Earthquake). Just spacing all the time. The guys are not even pros!

Top 8 on day 2 starts at 2:48:00
But Gamera’s Shiki is at 3:03:00. If you see first round is exactly what I explained. I can’t beat this with yolo play 
samurai shodown has an amazing soundtrack. they announced a vinyl and CD that can be pre-ordered..now? soon?

have you bought him or the game yet??
I liked Kazuki, but I felt that his movelist I kinda limited. I missed a fire DP it some medium/long range sword special.
I went drinking with our Online SamSho discord community yesterday. We all met up in Tokyo for a year end party.
Some of them are really into manga and drawing characters. They frequently make art before FT10 or team battles. Below an example drawing made by one player after a Yoshi Tora player and Kyoshiro player challenged each other yesterday at the party.
