New fighters, new glitches.

Filipino Champ encountered an entertaining/aggravating new glitch while streaming Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition not too long ago: it seems Falke takes her Guardian Hawk persona seriously enough that she wants to fly — or at least hang motionless in the air, above a rather confused opponent. [Audio NSFW!]

Definitely more floating like a butterfly, than soaring like a hawk. The cause of the glitch is unclear, but appears to possibly involve her “Windstoss” air throw. In this instance it’s accidental, but we don’t know if it can be deliberately replicated à la the classic game-breaking Street Fighter II arcade bugs. Fortunately, while it stops Falke dead in the air, it only takes a swipe from Necalli to get things back to normal.

Let us know if you’ve encountered this glitch!
