[CS2] Platinum the Trinity Actual Discussion Thread The First

[Master Chibi]

Can you hold a button for the low level / regular cat missiles, or is there always a delay towards the end?

[Cirno]

When did he say Shadow was using Platinum perfectly?

Yeah, basically this.

You don't seem to be able to delay them yourself, it's automatic as far as we know.

So yeah, new videos, some cool things. CDT seemingly fully invuln during the attack portion, j.5c gattlings into j.2c (which i'm too lazy to notate), you actually can knock people into dream sally? unless that was specific properties of the command grab or because the match had ended. interesting because before it seemed that was impossible, as when knocked into the bubble, the opponent didn't get caught by it. also, the large missile did a pretty good chunk of block damage when it wasn't blocked. Gonna watch some more, now.

[Sugoi]

Anyone have a video for where Swallow Moon (j.236C) is used?

I've been flipping through but I haven't noticed it myself.

[Cirno]

It's used once here, and again here and here (for a decent amount of time).

[Sugoi]

Thanks!

Now I've more or less figured out what all her moves look like, time to watch videos and memorize what can be done ;3

Seems like a lot of the time the combos end with 236A

I apologize for doing this, but I've already used the search option and nothing came up, and I've been browsing in this thread for over an hour but:

What is the date for her release? I heard that they announced the release date.

[HeartNana]

Sometime in Spring 2011.

[Synthesis]

You're the best, <37.

Have you seen this thread?

[LeFartknocker]

just saw this. Kitty missle throw setup? pretty dope, I bet that Valk was kicking himself...

That's some long range on ol' Dramatic Sammy.

[Synthesis]

@Hurricane Rev: Yeah, I saw that thread but the last time I was in there it wasn't updated at all and under her release date it simply said "We don't know yet," so I decided to look in here.

Also, to stay on topic, Air Persia looks sick as a mixup tool, and I'm sure that the command grab setup we just saw would be VERY good with mystique momo and her bombs. She could throw out three, command throw to regain them and then use that as a scare tactic. Is she going to command throw or simply rtsd while you're in the corner? She looks very very solid at this point.

[Yggjrasil]

tbh, I've just been looking forward to what HeartNana has to say about her...

[TD]

@ synthesis, l know she is right! she looks fun and solid. even with quite a few pressure/mixup tools already with 3 months to go till the patch, it would be a surprise if she peaked right now

[Starlight777]

Hammer goes OM NOM NOM on primers in the 2nd match here.

EDIT: LOLI FIGHT!!!!

Well, I usually update my thread when new information about Platinum has been found.

[mizuiro-kitsune]

So I've watched at least 20 Platinum matches and so far, I love her but there is one thing that I find odd. I haven't seen a single fatal counter yet. Does any one know what any of her Fatal counter are yet? Or if she even has any -_-'

[Danzai]

Every character has moves that cause fatal counters. I'm not sure what moves cause a FC though.

[mizuiro-kitsune]

LOL, I know every character has at least one, I was juts being sarcastic. But yeah I just watched another vid and no FC. I was kind of expecting her cat mace to be one but I guess not.

[zenken6]

Platinum's FC is 6C, from what the mechanics thread says. I don't think I've seen anyone Platinums use 6C, though.

also SUP CHIBBY

[Danzai]

Just saw a very neat corner combo using the upgraded missiles. It was on a livestream and on a tiny screen though, so I couldn't see the inputs. </3

[crazycrackers]

Yeah, that combo did 5.7k 0_o. Involved the pan, multiple 2c's (I think, thats the AA move where she sticks her staff DIRECTLY up right?), and then the upgrade super>missile>ender. Still not sure on the specifics.

[Urichinan]

You guys got link to this stream?

Yes, 2C is where she sticks the staff straight up, and it makes magical sounds.

[Danzai]

It was posted in the Video Discussion thread. I'll edit my post with the link in a bit.

[Hurricane Rev]

I don't know about you guys but I find Platinum vs Arakune a really bad match up for Platinum. What do you guys think?
