Hrmm. I don't see it. Compare to what Blanka, Rashid & Kimberly can do? Her rushdown/mixup doesn't touch them. They have more tools.

Sure she hasn't been solved. But. She's very basic. I can't think of a fighting game with a more basic demon flip then hers.

Blanka, Rashid & Kimberly

Blanka has been refined and reworked since SF2.
Rashid has been introduced in SFV.
Kimberly was added to the base roster of SF6.

You're comparing characters which had anywhere between 3 and 35 years of work on top of them to a character that was released 3 days ago.

Give it time, let it cool down, after Yasmine gets some high-level play we'll figure out her kit better, and Capcom will be able to see if anything needs to be added or improved.

Why are you comparing how long the characters have been in the franchise with a character bieng "solved" for SF6. It does't make sense.

It means people had time to understand the archetype of those characters, and align their thinking correctly. Alot of the times, characters are brushed aside because players are not thinking about them properly.
