RCs are Super easy to perform.  There is no timing involved.  The slowdown
mechanic is really annoying.

You think the mission trials are easy?  Wait till you try them out and
realise how much their explanations suck.  There is no start indicator.
Stuff just happens and you see "Good" or "Missed".  In one mission you're
supposed to block Millia's dust.  She either does a low blockstring, or
dust.  You have to react.  Except that they don't tell you she does it
twice in a row, and they don't tell you that it starts as soon as you press
a button.  So within 10 seconds you've failed 6 times without you even
realizing it.

Chipp seems to be top tier.  Good luck blocking his barrage of mixups.  Sol
seems the same except his stuff feels much easier.  Venom feels like his
offense was nerfed so you have to play him like a straight-up zoner, except
that his zoning isn't very strong, appears to be low tier which is a real
shame (think Dhalsim in SFIV).  Zato-1 looks good.  Bedman fills the screen
with shit and no one knows what's happening.  Ky seems good.  Didn't check
out Faust.  Millia was nerfed for sure from her previous iterations, but
still viable.  Hard to call on Axl.  Seems weak but is probably a
specialist character.  Potemkin is a joke.  I can't they put him in instead
of Jam, Baiken or even that annoying prick Testament.

Some of the execution stuff appears to be made harder?  Teching from a
dropped combo requires pianoing in order to have even a moderate degree of
success.  Reversals are basically a crapshoot because of all the different
timings involved.
