Arifureta Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 Pretty gutsy with his chains though. Flying in on block and everything.
PhantomX Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 I mean, sometimes you have to do the unexpected to get damage in. People are less likely to be waiting for you to do something inherently unsafe. I gotta say though, that combo into Astral is by far the most badass looking one I've seen.
Arifureta Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 Very easy to reaction poke all of those though. :V But yeah, risks are okay to take from time to time. Specially if you know they'll be too scared to do anything but block. This one's pretty awe-inspiring: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIOdGHxMgfY#t=11m50s Dear god, HIS INPUT'S TOO FAST. Jin barely even fell down yet. o.o
PhantomX Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 For that midscreen astral setup, I wonder if it's always doable or if it has to be after a throw counter.
Arifureta Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 I think it's Rachel/Tager specific. The command throw probably doesn't factor into the timing.
PhantomX Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 How could it hit Rachel but not anyone else? She's tiny!
Arifureta Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 Her hitbox is crazy different from everyone else. Also, it's pretty big. EDIT: Which, now that I think about it, should probably be listed in the Combo thread. Especially this one: 6B+C > 6D~A > (wait) > 623D Pretty tricky.
Alex073088 Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 Oh wow, first time I've seen that Astral combo work midscreen. my jaw dropped when i seen him astral rachel lol. Pretty gutsy with his chains though. Flying in on block and everything. cant we cat chair, if he comes in on blocked chains?
PhantomX Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 You can do whatever you want if we come in on blocked chains, lol.
Arifureta Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 cant we cat chair, if he comes in on blocked chains? Probably better to do 6A on blocked chains since I think that combos into something without having to use chains. Or whatever move is going to punish him worst since blocked chains are like free combos for you.

Or whatever move is going to punish him worst since blocked chains are like free combos for you. Supposing you had meter, could you do that combo with Baden Baden Lily into j.2C? It's probably her only chance at some decent damage.
Arifureta Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 ^ It could, I think, although since the normal Baden Baden Lily combo is used with at least one pole active, I don't think the damage will be as great when you just use it by itself. But at least it'll break 2k. :V

But at least it'll break 2k. :V I mean the Fatal Counter j.2C. Uh... in very loose terms since I'm not familiar with Rachel's commands, but something like... Cat chair, downwind Cat uppercut, Baden Baden Lily, upwind j.2C (should be a Fatal Counter), then whatever follows that. I think the j.2C alone should give you almost 1k damage. I saw one with Matsu playing, and he got a solid 4k. That was on Ragna off a counter while on the ground though. I don't know if Hazama being in the air will change it drastically.

kid viper Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 You can do whatever you want if we come in on blocked chains, lol. i hate when i read statements that are not true. you cannot do whatever you want if hazama comes in on a blocked chain. for all you know he may be baiting you to throw something out right in front of him and cancel his chain in front of you. hitting hazama out of chain is something you do on reaction, not on impulse.
PhantomX Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 That's kind of what I was implying... you can't cancel once you've committed to moving forward, and then w/ good reactions they can literally hit you with any fast move out of it. Also, I liked Buppa's HZ a lot more this time, it was much safer in its pressure, but still rape.
kid viper Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 .... you can cancel once you've moved foward. use a grab whiff or a j.a to stop your movement and bait an attack. that's why i said you have to react and not just impulse attack

Chronoxir Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 French Matchs. StunFest 2010. Match 1 : Chronoxir (Hazama) VS Carnage (Ragna) http://www.youtube.com/user/Maho1378#p/u/0/K-CuVq6JxBY Match 1 : Chronoxir (Hazama) VS Pentarou (Lambda-11) http://www.youtube.com/user/Maho1378#p/u/0/f6FJdL3JCiI Be kind. I begin the game. I have only 50 matches. ^^ It is difficult for the French players to play. The game is rare in France.

Wolf Pup TK Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 Are there any specific vids anyone can recommend to watch to get a better handle on Hazama's frametraps and block-pressure?
PhantomX Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 Wow... Zakiyama did a counterhit chain > 66 > 66 > 5B. I was thoroughly impressed. I also love his 5B round enders they make me smile.
Eclipse Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 Wow... Zakiyama did a counterhit chain > 66 > 66 > 5B. I was thoroughly impressed. I also love his 5B round enders they make me smile. Haha, yeah. It's kind of a way to taunt his opponent. I noticed he's getting a little better at applying pressure as well. Still no where near Buppa's level... But I'm glad to see one of the best Hazama players (In my opinion) is back. And Wolf Pup TK, to answer your question... Watching any of Buppa's videos as Hazama will help a lot. Or reading over the gameplay discussion thread near the last 5-10 pages. Honestly, there aren't any guides for it yet. I'd recommend writing down some of Buppa's blockstrings if you want to practice it.
