Jackie Chandler Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 I'm expecting things to be a little rough around the edges, but I have faith they'll be done for the most part come October's MTN.
Seiki Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 (edited) Soooo I've been seeing bbcsx vids with dora on a rampage and the fact all bang got was buffs and everyone else got nerfs one way or another makes me think he atleast moved up on the tier list. Dora said that "Bang is strong" on his twitta...so yeah~ back to CS1 days? I hope so lol. It seems his strongest buff is they gave him his CS1 5B meaning it's back to that speed (it's so good...I beat Layth and several people using just 5B. Literally just using 5b) but I can't be confident from just the videos although Dora seemed to use it frequently... also for those that don't know the proration on 5B is really good...it gives him 4k combos meterless corner or semi-midscreen. And seeing Noel have to work for damage is nice for a change. Haven't seen Makoto in action...but maybe that says a lot more about her lol. EDIT: nvm it's confirmed 5B is back to CS1 5B. WOOT!!!

Jackie Chandler Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 Dude, Dora's tearing people up with Bang in BBC SEX. I'd say with his damage and utility, Bang's going to be at least A tier in Extend. As for everybody else getting nerfs... Well, the only ones Ragna got were less Heat from Hell's Fang Follow-Up and Burger King cooldown time increase, and his buffs will open up more ways of getting in/getting combos. Plus, from what I can tell, Ragna mains won't have to relearn any combos. So much <3 right now. :D
LastStarSaviour Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 (edited) So in other words Bang is brain-dead once again, Ragna will still be bs, Tao looks legit, Mu is looking sexy, Hima is well...hima, and so on, lawl. Great game guys... Take note Seiki, we still do adequate damage from anything from what I can see. Our combos just got sexier. Edited October 7, 2011 by LastStarSaviour
Grimstar Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 the fuck is BBCSX... seriously? Another version already? Why the fuck?
Jackie Chandler Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 Dude, Grimstar, CSII's been out on consoles for more than half a year now. And by the time Extend comes out on consoles, we'll be looking at about the same time frame it took to go from CS1 -> CSII. It just seems like CSII hasn't been out very long 'cause you never played it. :P
Papstr Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 Good ol' Naimat. Complain about CS1 Bang [Pic of Naimat with douchey smile] Excited about CS1 5B -- Thought I'd randomly mention, turns out one of LoL's newest champions (Riven) happens to be voiced by Cristina Vee (Noel's VA, if you didn't know. I'm sure LastStar does. Dude's got a weird obsession with her. <3) and I thought that was kinda cool. Got nothin else to say, other than I tend to read Astaroth's posts in Tager's voice.
Astaroth136 Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 I'm expecting things to be a little rough around the edges, but I have faith they'll be done for the most part come October's MTN. I wasn't just saying pessimistic things for the sake of being pessimistic. I was just relaying what I last heard. Soooo I've been seeing bbcsx vids with dora on a rampage and the fact all bang got was buffs and everyone else got nerfs one way or another makes me think he atleast moved up on the tier list. Dora said that "Bang is strong" on his twitta...so yeah~ back to CS1 days? I hope so lol.

And seeing Noel have to work for damage is nice for a change. Haven't seen Makoto in action...but maybe that says a lot more about her lol. EDIT: nvm it's confirmed 5B is back to CS1 5B. WOOT!!! I will now lose to Bang 80% of the time. Seriously, in CS1, I would lose to the worst Bang players due to 5B punishing or beating out EVERYTHING Tager does. Got nothin else to say, other than I tend to read Astaroth's posts in Tager's voice. This made my day. NOT THIS TIME, LIBRARY! GENERAL...EMERILL...TANGENT...BUSTER!!!!! (Random vid of me playing SC4 back in the day. It'll get you hype. Billy already saw it on SRK)
Milln Posted October 7, 2011 Author Posted October 7, 2011 ^ snickersnicker astaroth's back throw is one of the best to win with. Sc4 is sadface, though.
LastStarSaviour Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 (edited) Yo, Tager looks fckin awesome. Never thought i'd say something like that about him. His command throws look like they all go purple now (he has increased hitstun from what i've been told), that's really good. Liking Relius more than I thought I would too. Edit: Hopefully more Noel vids come out so I can really get hyped (from what i've seen I really had nothing to worry about). j4D no longer combos as a starter but that's cool because I rarely used it anyways (might be required more in corner combos now). j.D has a lot of decreased hitstun and can't be comboed unless i'm really close to the ground (this is lawlz because it got projectile invulnerability, still won't make me use it anymore than I have in the past). Optic barrel has gotten slower than CS2's but faster than CS1's (we may still be able to battle Tsubaki with it). 2A nerf but still really good (i'm guessing). If we want to MF a combo we'll have to pay 50 heat if it's not a starter. Assault through is our go to corner combo extender (makes combos look sexy/it no loger breaks primer *sadface* but it's much faster, hopefully safe on block). Spring raid for mid-screen combos (think CS1). 6D no longer moves her foward (this seems kind of good because in the past i would try using it to avoid a hit and the move forward would ruin me. Hopefully with that removed avoiding attacks with it will be easier/ can't wait to experiment) 4D no longer has fatal properties (lawlz, Naimat you and me were actually talking about that last time). Phew, that was a lot I discovered from one vid. I know none of you guys care about this but I figured maybe Tad would like to read a bit of this. Can't wait to play Noel in Extend. I may edit this again if I see anything else worthwhile. In the meantime, stay dead MTN thread. @ Papstr: I love Christina Vee with a passion. She does so much for her fans and I wish her the best in everything she does. <3 Vee!!! @ Naimat: BANG STILL SUCKS!!! Edited October 8, 2011 by LastStarSaviour
Milln Posted October 9, 2011 Author Posted October 9, 2011 This thread is not dead by any means, Star. What are you talking about?
Volpe-de-Glacio Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 See, Star? Your gratuitous gang-rape metaphor was unnecessary. You've probably scarred Noel for life. Also, next one. I definitely gotta go, and my old question still stands: is there even any point in bringing my tv?
Grimstar Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Dude, Grimstar, CSII's been out on consoles for more than half a year now. And by the time Extend comes out on consoles, we'll be looking at about the same time frame it took to go from CS1 -> CSII. It just seems like CSII hasn't been out very long 'cause you never played it. :P It still seems like they're changing too much shit too often IMO... It just reminds me of how MvC3 nerfed Sentinel practically 2 weeks after release
Astaroth136 Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTcO_0l5CBQ Tager's combos are completely different. 3C, Collider whiff, j.2C is crazy.
Jackie Chandler Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Holy shit Extend is sexy. Astaroth, check out this Tager combo at 13:38 (it's not on Youtube yet, sadly). It's off a 5A, and damn it looks cool: http://en.niconico.sarashi.com/?sm15840821 I'm still waiting for a rip to show up for Relius's theme, and more Ragna videos though. :[
Jackie Chandler Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Relius is looking seriously solid, Milln. I'm pretty sure I've seen a couple "unblockables" with him so far, and he doesn't seem near as difficult to use as Carl. You considering using him?
Astaroth136 Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 SC5 Astaroth is fast. And check out that special at 2:22. The range and animation of it are awesome. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDXNUsMawiQ
Jackie Chandler Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 I'm surprised you didn't mention the Gigantic Tager Driver at 2:07 in that video, Astaroth. :P
Astaroth136 Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 I wanted to mention every time Astaroth moved or did anything in that video.
Milln Posted October 9, 2011 Author Posted October 9, 2011 In my opinion, Astaroth has always been a moderatoey fast character. With the charge, and his knee move of hate.... That maxi never used a brave or critical edge though. HE THREW THE MATCH SO THE ASTAROTH PLAYER WOULD WIN AND FEEL GOOD. AROUND THESE PARTS, WE TOY WITH OUR AXE-PLAYERS. But watching that made me think. Maxi? With brave edges, dude? I'm scared already.
Astaroth136 Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Bullrush and the knee have always been fast, but this SC5 Astaroth is slimmer and walks/dashes/runs faster. Definitely the fastest Astaroth has ever been.
LastStarSaviour Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) Edit Hope you NIGGAS are ready to get BODIED by low-tier! Edited October 10, 2011 by LastStarSaviour
