C0R Posted February 12, 2012 Author Posted February 12, 2012 Punish whiffed bursts with 6c if they're near the corner. 6c RC midscreen.
Nemesis Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Assuming I'm too close for 6c would 5b be favorable? I remember during your stream you mentioned with 5b we should be able to perform high and middle echelon combo routes
Lord Pwnge18 Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Axel can be good but he's somewhat predictable, for example he's overly in love with 2C - gotta keep that in mind His playstyle shares some traits with mine (possibly because we often fight) he can be quite aggressive - so predictable or not he was probably in your face the whole time He hit me with FC 6c and 2c more times than I could count. I have no idea how he hit me with 6c so often, and every time I got CH'd by 2c again, I couldn't figure out why I continued to jump.

YukiBlue Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 That feel when you hit SoD, Feel like they are going to cornerbound, so you run after them and get a last minute "SAAAFEEE" With 2B is incredible. On another note, I spent about half of the day playing extend. I discovered numerous things: 1) The new opening is awesome. I laugh like a girl everytime I see Relius return to the mothership. 2) Bang is incredibly good now. This makes me happy and sad. 3) Purple. I like it. 4) Mu is scary. If I didn't main her I'd be pretty scared now. The only thing I dislike is the 2C nerf, the thing really got hit hard (It needed it but still...) You have to mindread to hit with it really. But WELP. It can OTG so im happy to now mash 6A.
Arcknight Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 I was just trying to get used to using steins mid-combo. It's a pretty foreign concept to me since I never really learned any combos utilizing that. Anything I knew was from CS1 and it wasn't even that much to begin with. Mu isn't exactly a character I was ever serious about but enjoyable nonetheless. As far as AA nerfs go doesn't 6A still suffice? Hakumen just got his 6A back in some decent form. It could be worse.
YukiBlue Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 6A is still substantial. but 2C more or less negated any and all jump ins. Presuming you were ready for it. I miss having control of ALL of y airspace 100% of the time. 2C was just godly.
Arcknight Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 2C was pretty good. Good recovery and hitbox. Oh well I am sure Mu will survive.
YukiBlue Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 She will. I just think I'll have to think a lot more instead of mashing 2C. I think I'll plop out a 2D > 214D when the chance arises to just be like "Try me...Bro"
Lord Pwnge18 Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 That could actually be a good or bad thing for myself, considering i never really used 2c for WHATEVER reason my little mind conjured up. Could be good cuz it's getting nerfed, so i won't feel compelled to just throw it out as often as one might have, could be bad cuz now I kinda have to use it in combos.
SolarMisae Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 I'm still gonna mash on 2C like a boss. Fuck the nerfs, you don't know me! That said I don't really care about it's nerfs, because it's still a very good tool when used right. µ is amazing, if it weren't for the very few nerfs she got we'd be broken as fuuuck. (Not that I'd mind that of course, but for fairness sake~)
pochp Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 We'll see, lol. I've been losing quite a lot of games in csx because every now and then I use 2c like it's cs2 and eat a CH, and I'm not that used to 6a either so I often misjudge the range. You have to feel the nerf yourself to believe it I guess. But yeah, I don't really care either, I'll just deal with it, CS2's 2c was way too good. Pretty random, I saw this artwork the other day and thought it looked nice : http://gelbooru.com/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=1409686
YukiBlue Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Should we be worried about Bang or Ragna? Bang is understandable, But with Ragna I can't see the hype behind him in CSX. More damage? It's lot like Mu's C moves shit on him or anything, But has anything drastically changed?
Arcknight Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 That picture is amazingly well drawn. Subject matter aside. Good thing I won't miss much from CS2 since I had no idea how to do great things with Mu(or anyone else) to begin with.
Lythium Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Should we be worried about Bang or Ragna? Bang is understandable, But with Ragna I can't see the hype behind him in CSX. More damage? It's lot like Mu's C moves shit on him or anything, But has anything drastically changed? I've been playing against a bunch of Ragna players lately. The match-up hasn't changed much, but it seems like he is able to convert big damage off of almost any hit. He's almost more like CS1 Ragna, in that regard. It seems like he's improved from the previous version. Anyway, take that with a grain of salt. Those are just my first impressions of the character.
SolarMisae Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Ragna matchup is pretty much the same imo. Main difference is when he hits you it hurts more. But in the end winning against him is still all about making him realize his approach tools are all kinds of shitty lol. Easier said than done if the Rags is good and all, but thats how this matchup goes. Whoever gets that momentum and keeps ahold of it wins. As for Bang, he's kind of annoying with all his high mobility. Just watch out for his slide, it covers a lot of distance plus it's an FC iirc so don't press too many buttons unless he's a decent distance away. Time your anti-airs right and be wary of his command throw. Zone him and try to make him use up his nails, once he's out he loses one of his better tools to approach µ with. My 2¢ on those matchups.
KayEff Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Should we be worried about Bang or Ragna? Bang is understandable, But with Ragna I can't see the hype behind him in CSX. More damage? It's lot like Mu's C moves shit on him or anything, But has anything drastically changed? ragna becomes makoto lite. everyone else becomes shittier. when you get someone who has easy combos and does a shit ton of damage it's hard to turn down everyone's gonna have that pocket ragna also trufax mu's C attacks still shit on him in EX

YukiBlue Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Well, if he is weaker than he was in CS1 I don't mind. I can't see him giving me too much trouble if it's just more of the same. I can only really see Valk (As usual...), Hazama and Bang pissing me off in Extend. Which is a lot better than what it is in CS2. I don't know what they have done to Noel, But I still hate her...Just because Y'know, It's Noel...Everyone hates Noel regardless
YukiBlue Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Just incase anyone missed what I said. I HATE NOEL AND ANYONE AFFILIATED WITH THAT WENCH
