It sends the flyin the opposite direction of the guard break soo if its C-O-N an u do Brio, they will fly pass carl puttin it in a O-C-N.

An on that note sure tager cant move out the way but... if he lets go of block just before Brio hits then brio will send him flying away & saving him. Cause brio is carls worst option for comboing, especially in CS2.

With that said wouldn't it be smarter to do 8D instead since its no longer a UB. An it does 2hits meaning u got more time to do stuff

I'm just wondering if on a planned Air GUard break we have enough time to either hop or Vivace under the opponent and air combo them back into set ups.

As for the knock-back you mentioned Akiro, you could probably avoid that problem by just using this set up when you are close enough to the corner to wall bind. Makes it less awesome but still has it's uses.

after an air guard break they fly & wall bounce then they get stunned on the ground a lil. U have enought time to combo ,

Lets say Air guard break puts u in O-C-N u can Viv-A/B back into

C-O-N then go

J.2c-allecan>5c>Volante>J.2c-allecan>5c>J.c/J.b>2D>J.2c>J.c>8D>2C Fermata im guessin some where around 3.8k-4.3k

Brio is (2) hits & cost less Ada meter in comparison to 8]D[.

I doubt real badass options will emerge from guard break in the air. Griound tho, would be sweet to loop guard break resets after the opponent burst twice.

Cause i saw something that usually wouldnt work uh It was

O-N-C & carl hit them wit every hit of 3D, the carl never once moved forwards but still hit them with 5B & then during the beginning of the round he did 5B an it hit

I would not call that DP safe. That was good bait and punish. if he hadn't planned that reset and blocked he would have eaten that. Furthermore if ragna had not DP'd that would have gone back into blockable pressure, so it's really neither of those things.

However that still was pretty sexy mix up and reset. It seems like we're discovering that Carl really does have some chutzpah. just, as was from the jump of CT -> CS, completely different from what we're used to.

looks like because the first hit missed, she fell to the ground before hitting the wall so she teched.

carl standing in the way didn't help the cause either

carl standing in the way made her hit box push him. that's really funny. Also makes me wonder if you could use that as a set-up and instead of flying to the corner with her just 5C-> Air combo back into nirvanna.

Is 5C better in Cs2? It look that 5C is more used for poking now in Cs2.

Im hopping that Carl maybe will be A tier in Cs2. The strange thing for me is that now it look that not so many people pick Carl in Cs2, its kinda hard to find new matches with him now and more hard to find him winning. Too much Noel, Makoto, Valk.

I suppose that Jap people are more focused to use Carl unblockeable setups. The only stuff i want now is that it will be able to perform atleast some 5K dmg combo.

Go Cs2 Carl! conquer the wordl!! >_<

I don't know if 5C is better. It was a decent poke in CS1 as well. I think it's harder to combo off of a 5C CH in CS2 though.

But if that Cantata connected, the damage would've been 4.5k.

New to this board btw, nice to meet you all :)

i think i saw a vid before where carl jumped into the person flying across the screen and airthrow so they will break it back into NOC

Welcome, Psykotik.

If you're curious, Carl is pretty high A right now, according to JP.

My guess is he'll stay there.

Everything ends in pushback > zoning, or even better yet, sandwich > high low reset.

GDLK.

That did 3K dear.

No 3.6k was the dmg, that might as well be 4k & u could have did J.b>J.2c>allegreto>8D>(3c>Cantata) or (2c>Fermata) after the Brio>5c, & thats 5k Xp so hush. That was just an example. U should use ur imagination more when u play Carl.

I'm sorry for leaving you Carl ;~;, Platinum didn't mean anything to me!

Also, for these corner combos, you can fermata after the cantata for a extra 1k damage I'm guessing. Unless Carl should be saving his meter for rapids this time around.

Edit: I think it works midscreen too, It worked in CS1. If Ada is a little bit further ahead of you, you can link Cantata into Fermata.

doesnt seem to me like he gets anything new for rapids. probably still some use for the reasons we have now.

Curious: Did we lose the j.c - j.b reverse Gatling? i know j.b j.a still exists.
