Will FFG release a huge batch of promos at once to solve this problem or are they still going to release 2 every month like thay had been. I recon alot of people would be less tense about the rotation and the whole diversity issue if there were more promo characters made available.

A bunch of promos ARE going to be released, according to Hata.

He also says this; "Shut up and stop worrying."

True story.

fair enough cant complain with that lol. I oviously didnt know that because i wasnt at worlds and i cant remember hearing about it. the main thing i was wondering was how they were going to, either all at once or , slowishly bring them out.

That I'm not really sure about, but I'm sure a much smarter individual will come and tell you.

Who cares? There's not 18-20 characters used now. If there's only 18-20 characters after rotation but they're all good then there won't be a problem.

I'm sure the people that want characters outside of Soul Cal and Shadowar will care.

Jes sayin'.

well thats good becuase they got tekken as well

I asked Hata about this at worlds and he said there are tons of promo's in the warehouse already printed and ready to ship there will be plenty of characters to choose from.

I don't mind the small card pool. While people could say there's only going to be few decks, it happens all the time anyway. The difference is that playing these few decks will actually be FUN.

Between SCIV, SW and Tekken there's 24 characters already (counting Padma, Dariya and Cassie). Plus the champ promos. Plus the Jin Kazama spoiled elsewhere is labelled as 5/7 (if I read that right).

I don't think we'll have a problem.

I prefer this, than getting a pool of over 9000 characters and only seeing the the same 18 ones in play.
