Netplay grabs are _____ HORRIBLE and I hate that I know a grab is coming but even when I click B+C at the same time, it seems late. Purple grabs.. no problem. Green.. /rage. So is there any tips for this? I've been playing Blazblue for 3 years and I've "seen" it all but maybe I'm missing something.

Take the tech window frames, subtract it by the latency of netplay, and then subtract that by your reaction time. Only thing I can say is getting faster reacting to it. Either way it's not easy online. Ive seen the best players get green thrown free online so don't get salty over it. It's netplay. =3

I've learned that the best way to tech netplay throws is to turn your console off, especially if it'd cost you the match.

Seriously though, I trained myself to press B+C the instant I hear the sound of a throw or see an exclamation point, you just have to be more on point online. Practice until you dream of teching throws, that's all I can say other than try to avoid throws as much as possible if it's really a big issue, but that's hard to do on and offline..

Push buttons.

Don't worry about it.

NETPLAY

DO BETTER

Honestly no real answer fits. Best you can do if you are free to grabs or slow is play the player and maybe you'll get it over time.

Use one of two OSes:

1) OS throw tech

2) OS "fuck netplay"

OS throw tech, 4/1A+B+C, lets you tech throw and barrier at the same time. However, there is less leniency on TRM with OS throw tech.

OS "fuck netplay" is to scream "FUCK NETPLAY," and pretend you would've totally hit that throw reject offline.

I'm surprised no one said 'just play offline' yet

Clearly, he should just drive to where I live and play me.

Just break them as you would offline, and you'll do fine. Most of the work that goes into breaking throws has to do with anticipating them, so netplay should not be a significant factor.

It does suck if you properly reacted and lag made it not break, but those should be the minority cases.

I have the same issue you're having. Sometimes I tech it. Other times, it's like 'wtf, I saw that grab coming a mile away. WHY COULDN'T I TECH?!'

I'm assuming its because of the grab mixups I did against you when we played, right? ._.

Nah, its not you or anyone really.. Its just been like this for me, since CS1 and I'm only now starting to get annoyed cause there's a lot of grabby Ragna's lately and they all seem to play the same way. x.x;

Thanks a lot Dusk! It seems to work :DD

OS is your best bet. I'd say to rely on sound and visual cues, as well as the distance between you and your opponent to tech throws but it varies from netplay match to match.

green throws online are cheap

I don't think its cheap, I mean I've teched a fair share of them but like Cookie said.. There's the few that make you go "┻━┻ ︵ヽ(`Д´)ノ︵ ┻━┻" "wtf!"

Grabs are grabs and I couldn't imagine a fighting game without em. I really do need to learn to start grabbing other people though. I've never had the mentality to do it other than after someone grabs me. lol

A lot of grabs you can just see coming though and it just irritates me when I miss it. For example: When someone knocks you in the corner and they're in your face by the time you get up.. Well.. I'm WAITING to see the green and when I press, its like "Ha..ha.. you missed.. Here's a BK combo from Ragna nao! :D" and I'm just like " ....." lol

Oh, well I need to work on that as well. We'll play again at some point. :3

2) OS "fuck netplay"

this works for overheads too. my favorite os.

I seem to have a lot more problems with purple grabs myself. To me those seem absolutely unbreakable! I should just play offline more....against the AI since there's no one to play with. :(

if you're angry because of times where you know players are going to noob out with when they use their throws then just DP, or quick rise DP, or jump. Up back is very easy to time.

That's the thing though.. I don't always know.. Some player's know you're going to jump and when that happens I get grabbed there too lol. Oh and just so we're clear.. I'm a Lambda player.. there is no DP aside from Sword of Doom ; ;

Online could be full of shit sometimes. Just tell yourself its just online and don't let it get to you. That's what I've been doing these days.

I had that same issue with Lambda too.

Does it? I've always tried but I guess my execution is off.. After like 3 times I just quit trying lol.. So far Dusk's post is working.. I'll try this too. :D

Question though: How? Since its not a DP anymore.. I just don't understand is all, not challenging your post.
