Sleep Deprived

So, here I am, suffering from insomnia on a saturday morning, where on a whim I go to see what the current state of Soul Calibur III tech is.
The results?
Not pretty at all.
G22 has been renamed VC aka Variable Cancel, and now applies to whole shitloads of MOVES, not just Guard Impact or throw tech recovery.
In fact, the true nature of G22 now means that your moves goes through while your recovery ENDS, meaning you can land a throw, G22 it while your throw is STILL GOING and move around and do other hilarious things.
One example of the nonsense.
This also applies to some moves, most noticeably Mitsurugi's 88B, which now can be eternally VCed into itself for an un Guard-Impactable block trap if you block the first hit.
Basically, you can keep doing it, they can't escape, and well, you can run the timer down, or basically choose when to mix up and stop it.

This is why people have already started looking at the Arcade version.
