LuminAbyss Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 > Boring > Likes Ragna's simplicity Let me explain. Ragna is a limited character. He has good neutral, average pressure, and average mix-up. He doesn't not have many tricks readily available to his arsenal. He does not have any single strength or area in which he excels. This forces you to outplay your opponent with the little tools he provides you in comparison to the rest of the cast. It forces you to mess with your opponent harder, surprise them more, while still having to maintain a very solid play style in order to stay alive (10k health is "fun", I'm sure you all know that). It provides a really fun challenge. There's a reason Ragna is one of the hardest characters to play at high level, and why many hold the opinion that he's in actuality a weak character. Everyone else has several options, several tricks to pull out (unblockable resets, safe cross-up shenanigans, many revolver action options, strong primer breaking strings, really strong oki for example) and most every character has an area of strength. In comparison to him, they have a huge arsenal. But to me, I don't like having more options than I know what to do with. I like having very little, and making the most of it. Simplicity. Give me the basics, let me work magic with it. That's just how I like things. Don't know if that made any sense, but that's just how I see things. I do love messing around with other characters though, but only for their combos~
C0R Posted November 12, 2011 Author Posted November 12, 2011 Played CSX. Mu is broken. Corner to corner off everything. Air DP is too strong. Air super is too strong. Damage is too high.

LuminAbyss Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Why am I so excited to fight against this?
SolarMisae Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 I am clearly being totally serious about everything I've said over the past few pages. ... lol jk Mu is gonna be dumb nerf her before I get called a tier whore qq i played her before she was WAY TOO GDLK. Therefore I am special. SPECIAL.
LuminAbyss Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 What I'm confused about is, if she's so strong, why doesn't Japan use her more?
LuminAbyss Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Oh please. If you want to be hipster, go play Melty Blood
HexaNoid Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Mu is gonna be dumb nerf her before I get called a tier whore qq i played her before she was WAY TOO GDLK. Therefore I am special. SPECIAL. Where have I heard this story before...? :3
Aile Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 (edited) went to a con today. Played more Mu and any of my other chars on casuals . Joined 3v3 with Michi and a friend, but decided to stick with Makoto. Regretted that decision ;___; And people were calling me a tier whore for switching to Mu in preparation for csex 8V; ...and the sudden flood of Mu's here scared me . also fighting taos with mu is Edited November 12, 2011 by Aile
Lord Pwnge18 Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 I'm a little excited for the hate mail I will be getting from our new placement in the tiers, this will be fantastic. Oh, and I actually get to win this time around! It's always a tough decision between "choose char I like" and "winning"
pochp Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 If Mu really does have the strength to be top tier, then I'm looking forward to having a potential to do better in tournaments, therefore encouraging me to practice and play more, and who knows, maybe I'll win a major next year I never really pick my character depending on a tier list, just their playstyle (except in marvel lolol), so I find this to be a great chance to see what it's like to be the strongest, having played the same character after a year and a half of mid tier. In other news, Doctor Strange feels a lot like Mu... with teleports and fullscreen instant punish super. @C0R : What makes air super so strong? I thought it would just be a gimmick, since you can otg 2C 5C into the ground version now.
Zeromus_X Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Played CSX. Mu is broken. Corner to corner off everything. Air DP is too strong. Air super is too strong. Damage is too high.

Nemesis Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 (edited) Can't wait to feast on the delicious hatred I feel u there zeromus but I just wish they could make stuff more progressively balanced instead of continuing to do the opposite pretty soon they will make ragna have air BK and wall bound from normal hells fang or air 22c or some ridiculous shit for the next char Edited November 12, 2011 by Nemesis
ThunderboltZ28 Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Where have I heard this story before...? :3 Noel has always been mainstream.
Fallacy Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 I feel u there zeromus but I just wish they could make stuff more progressively balanced instead of continuing to do the opposite pretty soon they will make ragna have air BK and wall bound from normal hells fang or air 22c or some ridiculous shit for the next char idk so far I think the blazblue games have gotten more balanced with each game, we'll see if CSEX changes that
