Pretty sure none of use use Ragna on a frequent basis. :s

After this week, I'll be back~

Also, League of Legends is fun-ish. Didn't someone at Frigid's place play it? I'll have to pick up some tips.

[Yuushiro]

yay no ragnas.....

I'm switching from hakumen to ragna but I'm nothing to be feared in BB

[Ronin Jinobi]

I guess that makes me the last haku-main in this area o_o

[Yuushiro]

yes zach, show me your hakumen power....

ikki needs some advice to beat me, so if you do beat me please give him some advice.

He got discouraged since I had 23 wins against him last night and doesn't wanna play me anymore.

haha I need to start practicing again. i got servvvved last night but all that did was just fuel my determination to play more :O

[Yuushiro]

uh oh...

who beat you?

[Ronin Jinobi]

mainly frigid, oso, and mightfo. i got a few rounds on them occasionally, but losing alot more definitely motivated me to practice...well that and I'm the last haku-main in dallas, kinda makes me want to be the best damn haku-man i can.

[Mightfo]

multiple things in this post relevant to people's interests i suppose

current plan is i'll host friday and frigid will host saturday. friday meetup with me will be about 2:30-9. I'll order pizza to arrive at about 4:00, so get your ass here by then!

Does anyone want to play Melty Blood? I learned a C-Ryougi bread and butter and wanna play people. I got a big urge to play because 1)I finished Kara no Kyoukai 2)Ryougi is fucking sick. She's got absolutely nuts pressure, (c-groove, though h/f groove are similar pressure wise) some held-unblockables, a custom combo super that allows for some sick mixup and damage, she has a 2-bar command grab esque super, and she has a sick rekka series.

I mean, just watch this shit:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5TR5w6eHko

(H-Ryougi, but still.)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDuOP6B-sSI Fucking awesome match.

There's a wonderful guide to (totally legally, of course) emulating MBAA http://www.meltybread.com/forums/melty-blood-auditorium/how-to-run-melty-blood-actress-again-on-your-pc/ Here. It's pretty easy, runs well.

Alternatively, swapmagic works for running it on PS2, iirc.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LogguugmR2A More sick melty footage.

Also, I guess I'll learn some basic combos on GG. By "basic" i don't really mean "bread and butter" but "what mightfo can easily and consistently can do." I'll have to mess with it more to see what that amounts to, obviously, but I'm sort of limited since I can't do training mode with my stick, though I can be a nulldc hero on PC and I can play the Wii version. My wii classic controller still feels pretty good, actually, unlike other pads. Though, Ronin, if I'm only doing like 10% HP combos, should I bother or would I not be able to stand up against you/Cheebz/Jet?

also, FRCs actually aren't that hard. Some have longer windows, like OS's charge cancel, Riot Stomp, etc. I did riot stomp like 6 times in a row on pad without input display.(and yes, i had wii's easy frcs thing turned off.) My success rate is only like 30% for 2 frame FRCs that I practiced for like 15 minutes, but yeah. Not THAT bad, and you have other ways to spend meter, so...plus, for some, like gunflame, no big deal if you didn't do the FRC right if you used it as a minor pressure extender. Or I guess if you're trying to do FRC bandit revolver for some sort of shenanigans where you go for a low instead, a failure rate isn't too big of a deal since it just means you won't ever be predictable with it, hahaha.

Unlike Melty, unsure who I want to main, though.

Kind of want to play OS, because 1)Love dat mechanic. 2)Dem normals(Especially their +/even frames..) 3) Manly.

Considering I-No, since 1)oh god i found out how to do a quadruple overhead though it's not that great 2)Love the morrigan dash, projectile, and some crossup 3)Sexy.

Also considering Bridget, since 1)oh god unblockable setups 2) Sick normals 3)Cute.

Considering venom, since 1)ahhh pressure 2)lov2charge character 3)Kind of cool to play as a canonically gay guy.

also i should play ronin/jet in ssf4 next time i get a chance

need a good hakumen and bang and litchi competitions...

no ragna though..., any good ragnas from dallas?

I won't be close enough to "good litchi competition" until post-patch when I get combos together etc. I guess I'm OK bang experience though. don't you have kensou down there anyway or is he houston

Shoutouts to Dad

[Ronin Jinobi]

umm if you're doing 10% combos I'll be nice and run my johnny against ya. he's low tier and very rusty

of course if you destroy my johnny your only other 2 options are my dustloopin baiken and my jam(it's jam i literally just press buttons and shit happens o_o)

nah it'd be good practice. But yeah i've been wondering about melty for a while I might actually try playing it again >_> key word: try.

[Mightfo]

ignore LOL2A jokes

melty has GLORIOUS shit like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ei4VDvg-jCg

adapting to other ANIMO games is always awkward though, yeah.

[Ronin Jinobi]

haha yeah well it's just that I played it before(before being a few years back when i was heavy into traveling for my guilty gearz) and i was kinda iffy on it. I'll give it another shot if someone brings it though.

if a "a few years back" is more than 2 years ago, that was probably act cadenza instead of actress again. it seems to me that AA is when MB became legit as fuck, was still recovering from "hi i started out as a shit game" in AC. hell, 2 years ago was the arcade release..ps2 release was just a year ago.

would you try it if i had it going on my pc?

doesn't denton have an MB scene

yeah it was longer than 2 years ago. I went by a different handle back then.

yes! i totally would run dat shit on da pc :3

and i dunno...you'd probably have to ask someone from melty bread o_o

[jetblaksuit]

Depending on who you decide to play BnBs aren't that difficult honestly its just a matter of practice like any other game. I'm currently maining Ky, and considering picking up Order-Sol, Millia or possibly even Testament. Ky's combos for the most part are super easy. I haven't done a full OS one yet but, I've only been messing around with it for a couple hours maybe off and on today. The real thing to learn IMO is just how your character plays and when to use what moves. That should make you at least competitive with the 3 of us.

[cheebz]

Though, Ronin, if I'm only doing like 10% HP combos, should I bother or would I not be able to stand up against you/Cheebz/Jet?

you'll be fine, we'll use subs until you learn more.

also, FRCs actually aren't that hard. Some have longer windows, like OS's charge cancel, Riot Stomp, etc. I did riot stomp like 6 times in a row on pad without input display.(and yes, i had wii's easy frcs thing turned off.) My success rate is only like 30% for 2 frame FRCs that I practiced for like 15 minutes, but yeah.

yeah order sol's are pretty easy, and it's not like any of the others are much harder, just takes more practice than some people care to put in.

Not THAT bad, and you have other ways to spend meter, so...plus, for some, like gunflame, no big deal if you didn't do the FRC right if you used it as a minor pressure extender.

ehhh i wouldn't be too sure about that. it's pretty easily punished, especially if you're baiken.

Or I guess if you're trying to do FRC bandit revolver for some sort of shenanigans where you go for a low instead, a failure rate isn't too big of a deal since it just means you won't ever be predictable with it, hahaha.

i actually do this just to troll or get out of a bad situation where i know my ass is going to get fb guard cancelled and die.

order sol : yes

i-no : yes but good luck playing her with a pad

bridget : no, you will die. sure he has unblockable setups but they're shitty anyways. he has some annoying ass pokes though.

venom : you gonna be stylin' on us all

[zreb]

oh hey i guess this finally fucking exists now

now if only they'd stop being terrible about PC port and get CS on PC i'd be in business.............................

asdfsa i just noticed this

Unique combatants: Choose from more than 10 unique combatants! Choose a character that represents your own fighting style, like the lightning-fast Taokaka or the wickedly powerful Tager.

bridget : no, you will die.

man, dammit cheebz, this was actually a decision. Now I have to play Bridget.

i-no : yes but good luck playing her with a pad

.. You are one confused turkey. While the only training mode I can do at home is on Wii, I'd still end up playing on a stick when I play with you guys.

also cheebz part of the thing with loketest ragna is like

there was this amount of info like "5d(2) is now overhead, gauntlet hades isn't" and stuff and then suddenly "WHOOPS THAT WAS A HOAX INFO"

so it's sort of hard for me to retain any ragna loketest info because..lol, japs be lyin.

just wait and see, I suppose.

also i am very surprised that Kick Start My Heart doesn't have an frc point, it really feels like something that would

and i dunno...you'd probably have to ask someone from melty bread o_o

i think drges mentioned it. speaking of which, will I get to play him when I drop by arlington late december?

lmao zreb @ pc ct stuff

[Mightfo]

double post

almost forgot

well that and I'm the last haku-main in dallas, kinda makes me want to be the best damn haku-man i can.
