What's your thoughts on Jamie
Jamie is good once he gets his drinks off. Him getting his drinks is easier or harder depending on who you're fighting against. Once Jamie has 2 drinks, he's really good. With 3 drinks he's REALLY REALLY GOOD, and one might argue with 4 drinks he's the best character in the game. If he's in a match where he can get his drinks off consistently, he's A tier. If he's in a match where it's harder to do so (Guile/Juri), he's probably high B. He's definitely better than Manon, Zangief, Lily, Kimberly, Honda and Ryu. After that, its a debate.
The problem with Jamie is that he's too harshly penalized for not having drinks. I know people feel he should "keep his drinks going into the next round", but trust me when I say that would be way too strong. I am, however, in favor of him losing 2 drinks and keeping whatever is left over. So if you got to 3 drinks in round 1, you start round 2 with 1 drink. This would instantly make him even better. Him having a 10% damage penalty without drinks is really weird.
There's a lot of good stuff though.
- Jamie's drive rush game is extremely underrated. Drive Rush standing fierce is an amazing move. He also has all the stuff you need out of Drive Rush to be a a threat in terms of mix, like a drive rush overhead. Standing roundhouse is strong too, and he has mind games with his Rekka since you dont know when he'll stop doing it (unsafe though).
- Anti Air game is rock solid so you cannot jump on him.
- His st.mp is plus frames and compliments his target combo extremely well.
- His command grab is very strong.
- His wall game might be the best in the entire game. Jamie's throw loop cannot be backdashed out of, meaning once he throws you one time, he can keep throwing you over and over again and the only options you have to escape are to tech the throw or jump, but if you do jump, he gets guaranteed damage. He also has a safe jump (when you are guaranteed a jump attack to initiate pressure on their wake up without fear of punishment) in the corner that works against anyone except Lily with Wind Buff and Honda. Vs a good Jamie, getting put against the wall is game over more times than not.
He's one of those characters where he will truly shine once the absurdly powerful ones get adjusted next year. You know he's not going to get any reductions, and only additions, so definitely stick with him if you like him. It does seem like a lot of the best Jamie's are transitioning towards Rashid, though. Both flashy with lots of mix up and up close pressure, but Rashid will undoubtedly be the stronger character once the dust settles.
this character just sucks, this matchup is bad, drive impact is scrubby" that's the point of the tweet

Bruh even with guards and rolls SF will never play like KoF, plus those actions are still tied to meter you’re not just abusing them. Hell even SNK characters played like SF characters in CvS2.
