 The SOS Brigade finally makes her dynamic entry into MUGEN with a brand new gameplay fighting style! This was probably the most challenging MUGEN character I have developed to date considering she was overall more complicated than even the likes of Akyuu to design and, being one of my most anticipated creations, I wanted to get her right. So, now that the wait is over, it's time to Save the world By Overloading it with fun Haruhi Suzumiya Brigade!

 As for the previous character, they all have received the same update in which an invalid combo indicator has been added to them, allowing you to check the legitimacy of your juggles more accurately than ever before.

 

 ... Also, Homura Akemi, the only one who has received a character specific update simply had a bug fixed that causes her grenade projectile to do less damage than normal.

That Haruhi is very good. especially the Ground/Air Combos that gives me sorta the MvC feels and I love it.

Keep it up.

All Characters:

 Very quick update since there was an annoying bug I accidentally left behind while updating the burst system.

 

- Corrected a bug where burst couldn't be used until you get hit after the start of a round.

Seeing as how Nayuki is going to be released some time this week, you know the drill...

 

All Characters:

- Revamped juggle system; instead of being based on move count like before, it's based on a timer now.
- Introduced hitstun decay system.
- Increased damage on all normals and uniformed damage scaling across everyone to be 30% minimum to accommodate the new juggle system.
- More moves are made untechable to accommodate the new juggle system. In addition, grounded normals that force targets to stand now cause soft knockdown now.
- Hitstun increased to various extents for all normals and special to accommodate for introduction of hitstun decay.
- Burst now comes with a meter below the icon that tells the player its recharge status as well as a cross-out that will appear over said icon whenever the character is in hitstates that they cannot burst out of.
- Guard Crush damage reduced by 33% across all characters except for Akyuu, whose is reduced by 66%.
- Fixed counter hit and spell bonus bugs.
- Adjusted cornerpush to occur only on hit.
- Fixed bug that caused Gold Burst to be read too late.
- Revised super finish aesthetics.
- Debug now allows player to have a "cheat sheet" to view juggle timer, hitstun decay and damage scaling.

 

Haruhi Suzumiya:

- Fixed a few custom state bugs.
- j.2y has overall more lag with start-up and landing's increased frames. Also has a height restriction now.
- SOS Rise (version z) captures airborne targets more reliably now.
- Fixed SOS Variety bug that made it fail against super armor.
- SOS Live damage reduced from 37.5% total life to 36% total life.
- SOS Live now is a multi-hit move.
- Many specials have increased damage.

 A minor bug in Haruhi was found, which also clashed with the juggle limiter.

 

- Fixed bug that would make hard knockdown from all versions of SOS Rave fail its get-up check on P2. Also tweaked velocity of said move as extra assurance.
- Fixed bug where invalid combo detector failed to register ground bounce as an exclusion.

 

 You can go redownload her to get the fix.

[Nep Heart]

- Fixed bug where invalid detector misread certain custom hit states while hitstun decay and juggle timers are active.

All Characters:

- Overhauled every characters' read me text file.
- Command for guard cancel counter has been changed to F+x+y.
- Fixed burst bug that forced it even without input.
- Fixed bugs for post-battle states.
- Improved/fixed more sound aesthetics.
- More normals are made incapable of jump canceling on block.
- Tweaked custom knockdown to prevent alternative get-up options from ceasing their function.
- Juggle timer reduced from 9 seconds down to 4 seconds. Juggle timer restoration with each hit and super pause are increased proportionately to compensate.
- Revised Counter Hit from doing 100% bonus damage down to 25% bonus damage, however, damage scaling is mitigated by 25% for starting combos off a counter hit.
- Mechanics are now divided into different tiers in terms of how commonly shared they are; Universal Abilities for mechanics in which all characters share, Series Abilities for mechanics in which only characters from a corresponding series share and Unique Abilities in which only that specific character has.
- Introduced Guts.
- Everyone's down.bounce.yaccel value has been practically doubled, emulating knockdowns closer to that of EFZ.
- To compensate for introduction of Guts and juggle timer being lowered, all normals and most supers have their damage increased and damage scaling slightly increased and minimum damage scaling decreased.

 

Kadokawa characters:

- Introduced Reflection Guard.
- Introduced Blast.

 

Haruhi Suzumiya:

- Damage on Esper Clash reduced, cooldown time slightly increased.
- Moved SOS Assists HUD to the bottom of screen.

[Nep Heart]

 Quick fix update involving a serious gamebreaking bug...

 

- Fixed reverse damage scaling bug that caused it to trigger twice upon activating Combo Blast.

[Nep Heart]

Quick update to correct a system mechanic.

 

- Guts works correctly on first hit of being combo'd.

 

An example of what it looks like in action when properly working. Yes, that's the same exact combo.
