Lernen Sie die Zukunft von Street Fighter kennen, Der letzte Charakter des SFV: Lukas – PlayStation.Blog
Street Fighter V’s final digital event revealed new details on the last character, Lukas, who will be a key player in the next Street Fighter project. We’re not ready to talk about that just yet, but let’s dive into Luke in SFV and his unique gameplay mechanics.
SFV’s Final Combatant Enters the Ring
The SFV Fall Update kicked off with a preview of Luke’s story mode. This follows a dramatic childhood event that inspires him to become a fighter, join the military, and encounter a familiar face.
We won’t spoil too much here. Play Luke’s Character Story to learn more.
Luke Gets Up Close and Personal
Luke is all about forward moving attacks that keep the pressure on. All three normal punches move Luke forward, allowing him to close distances offensively. Luke also has two target combos great for racking up damage.
Luke’s target combos are great for dealing damage
Luke’s special moves allow him to close safely and create offensive opportunities. A mid-to-long ranged projectile called “Sand Blaster” shoots energy from his hands. “Rising Rocket” is an anti-air move that launches Luke upwards to attack airborne opponents.
“Avenger” is a forward-moving dash Luke can string into combos and lets him cover more ground. It has two follow ups: “No Chaser,” a shoulder charge that’s integrable into combos, and “Impaler,” a mid-range overhead kick.
“Flash Knuckle” is Luke’s go-to combo starter and extender. Each punch leads to a different forward-moving attack.
HP ver. goes nearly half-screen away
Holding punches executes a charged version of “Flash Knuckle” and gives it different properties, depending on the button pressed.
A Familiar Yet Unique V-System
Luke’s V-System, while familiar, has special properties, especially with his V-Triggers. His V-Skill I, “Hard Shot,” charges up “Flash Knuckle” without having to hold and charge the move. If you charge after using “Hard Shot,” it executes an enhanced version with more damage and combo potential.
V-Skill II, “Suppressor,” has Luke take a quick step back before executing a body blow. Different from a parry, it excels against throws and command grabs when timed properly. While seemingly defensive, this move keeps Luke on offense by making accurate reads and suppressing escapes.
Luke’s V-Triggers are unique, as both cause his V-Gauge to become a timer that continuously fills in a neutral state. Zusätzlich, Luke can gain V-Timer by doing damage. Conversely, he loses V-Timer when getting hit or using his V-Trigger moves. These are the first SFV V-Triggers to increase V-Timer as you do damage. This also forces opponents to approach and prevent Luke from maintaining a filled V-Timer.
V-Trigger I, “Fully Armed,” gives Luke access to two new moves, which we revealed during the SFV Sommer-Update 2021. Pressing HP+HK after activation throws out three long range projectiles called “Rock Smasher.”
Activate “Fully Armed” and pummel opponents!
“Thermobaric Thrash,” is only executable off an EX “Sand Blaster.” This adds tons of damage but EX meter must be utilized wisely.
“Thermobaric Thrash” unleashes heaps of damage but is only usable after EX “Sand Blaster”
V-Trigger II, “Vanguard,” lets Luke cancel any “Flash Knuckle” into another of a different strength. This opens up previously unavailable combo paths, allowing Luke to double up on “Flash Knuckles” in his combos.
“Vanguard” can string together “Flash Knuckles” of different strengths for extended combos and extra damage!
Luke is fully armed and ready to fight on November 29th with additional costumes. Make sure to prepare before Luke joins the fight by picking up the Jahreszeit 5 Character or Premium Pass.
Now that we know how Luke plays, let’s see him in action.
