[CS2] Platinum the Trinity Actual Discussion Thread The First

[Cirno]

Gotta love it when you do something else for a bit, refresh the window, and there's 3 new pages.

May take a while to see all of Plat's colors, but I think I've already seen people using some character's DLC colors.

We saw Shadow using the red/gold alt, which looked pretty much amazing. Pretty sure you have to pay for them with "Platinum dollars", which actually isn't affiliated with our Platinum at all.

There's a lot I want to try with the Platinum vs Hakumen matchup. Will bats beat out his counters? What about the cat staff? Will missiles really be that easy to cut, or better, will they react to it if they aren't completely familiar with the Platinum matchup? Will Dream Sally be of any use at all? Just a bunch of stuff I could probably theorize, but I'd like much more to try myself before I call that a 'bad matchup' for her.

My face is re-attached, seems I missed a bit.

I'll go update what I can on the Video index.

And just where have you been young man? Out lallygagging as usual??

i was gonna use a pun for 'lallygagging' but it would have ended up really inappropriate.

I've just learned a new word.

Loli... gagging. You're right, that IS inappropriate.

Anyway, I got diagnosed with some rare blood condition, and have been in and out of consciousness / hospital since I can remember. But, the antihystamines are working, and I'm starting to catch up all that I missed. Back at home now and things are returning to normal.

My life is hardcore, ENVY MEEEE.

I hope you get better.

As for me, sleep. Bye.

[Cirno]

Oh jeez. Sounds rough. Like Hiago said, hope you get better.

Or maybe you've been out partying so hard, during one of your blackouts you have made all of this up!!! NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW THE TRUTH

get better bro. also goin to bed. gnt

[Rhapsody]

That sucks, hope you get better Corinthatic.

I wonder if there's a Fate or a Nanoha color for Platinum that's yet to be unlocked.

It seems like there should be one.

Also, it's kinda hard to gauge how the matchup is with Tager and Hakumen right now.

The Hakumen matchup looks kinda hard. But it doesn't look like that player didn't really know what to do at all let alone any good combos.

Although it does look like Platinum had a tough getting in on him though which sucks.

Wow what's your condition like I got SC I'm stuck with that forever! Also you didn't miss much unless you missed any of Shadow's Platinum of course.

Hope ya get better!

Ugh, sometimes trying to get in on Hakumen is like trying to stick your hand in a box of broken glass and trying not to get cut. ⊙▃⊙

Let's hope Plat's items will save the day with their kitty faces and sparkles

Yeah he's another reason why I hate any sword longer than 3 feet. They always seem like "compensation" of a lol sort. Anywho I think it may be possible to fire a missile from fullscreen and airdash to him if he tries to 4C it. I just wanna see someone do this matchup well.

We saw what could be a Nanoha-like color here

[Rhapsody]

Oh cool, thanks. I guess I missed the video earlier.

[OniYouji]

Talks to Ragna about food, talks to Tao about Bang, talks to Bang about... forgot, gets trolled by Hazama, like everyone else.

Well, no one mentioned Ragna. So, thanks.

[Urichinan]

Whoa Cor, that sounds rough. I hope you get to feeling better soon.

Just for giggles I hope she gets a Rachel palette! \o/

[Hurricane Rev]

Sorry to hear that Corinthatic. I hope you get better man

You shouldn't have asked.

@Hiago: DAT 2C

Whatever happened to Fatima Platinum? *nonchalantly whistles*

Is this corner only (2Cx4) or can it be done mid-screen with dashes?

I need to know before I can add it to the thread. QQ

[Cirno]

alskfh, you know it REALLY GETS TO ME when I see a Platinum not using their items. It's like when people started playing BBCS at first with Tsubaki, and nobody charged. Gonna use a counter assault when I have a bat equipped. just afljslf what???

I'm wondering how much damage the 2C loop does. I'm also assuming it's in the corner, and/or you have to dash in after every other 2C.

Edit: Large bombs are looking like they do 1207 a pop. They also hit two times.

I don't know, not specified. You can surely do it in corner, though.

EDIT: You don't need to dash between 2Cs. There's a video in which a Platinum could combo 2C twice that shows that.

Why? Everyone has their own style of playing a character. Its not like someone has to play a character exactly the same as everyone else. Otherwise, that would be boring IMO

I feel guilty when I post paletteswaps in this thread ;_; maybe I'll open a new thread for ego busting and stuff, since there are a lot of characters that would fit perfectly as a Platinum palette.

[Cirno]

Why use Platinum if you aren't going to use her items? Why play Arakune if you aren't going to curse your opponent? Why play Noel if you don't ever use chain revolver? Why play Blazblue if you aren't going to press D?

EDIT: You don't need to dash between 2Cs. There's a video in which a Platinum could combo 2C twice that shows that.

IIRC in that video, Platinum got pushed away a bit. That's why I said after 'every other 2C'.

Really? I don't recall that happening. Don't think it makes a difference anyway.
