BlackYakuzu94 Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 GG's to both of you. I don't have much experience against Hakumen so it's nice to finally get some for a change. Also, why the hell does Bang's Astral go through guard, I mean what the shit is that about.
toanenadiz Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 It's a throw. And why would you use his astral if the opponent could just block it? It isn't like he has an practical way to combo into it.

It isn't like he has an practical way to combo into it. No, Zeth did against me when I barriered, and I was like "What the actual fuck man". And it's a throw? The hell. EDIT: Nope, Mac's right, it's unblockable. Well shit. Edited March 16, 2013 by BlackYakuzu94
toanenadiz Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 That's the point of his astral. It would be useless if you could block it. I thought it was an unblockable. Nope. Lambda can gravity well it.

Also, why the hell does Bang's Astral go through guard, I mean what the shit is that about. GGs. I mean he is trying to hit you with a huge 55 inch nail, lol. Also GGs to H_Knight, I was doing my best to channel Kaeru since I think you play him offline in your scene lol.
BlackYakuzu94 Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 That's the point of his astral. It would be useless if you could block it. Didn't mean it was a bad thing, it just caught me off guard is all. GGs. I mean he is trying to hit you with a huge 55 inch nail, lol. Also GGs to H_Knight, I was doing my best to channel Kaeru since I think you play him offline in your scene lol. There are so many impractical astrals you can block, I just thought "Fuck it, I'll block, aww shit" lol, nah I had fun.
Sophisticat Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Also GGs to H_Knight, I was doing my best to channel Kaeru since I think you play him offline in your scene lol. Haha, yeah, I noticed that. I more or less play him weekly. You both have nasty Bangs. Not my favourite character to play against. You more or less need to burst anything that leads into seals or FRKZ. GGs anyway, been a while I went up against you. You and Kaeru have interesting, though opposite styles. He's much more about FRKZ and oki setups, and I think you're more about working the seals and getting mixups. Good stuff, yo. GGs Black, too. Don't be afraid to be aggressive with Ragna. His spacing is slightly superior to Hakumen's. You just need to be more proactive and mount an offence. If you respect Hakumen too much, he'll faceroll you any way he wants as I think I demonstrated, lol. Oh, and throws. To make Rag's offence scary, add in some throws so I don't try and counter everything. Then you're more or less set.
BlackYakuzu94 Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 I'll be honest, pressuring has never been a big game of mine, it's something I really need to start practicing. I get weary of Hakumen because if I'm too aggressive, I'll get reversed but I see what you're sayin.

He's much more about FRKZ and oki setups, and I think you're more about working the seals and getting mixups. Good stuff, yo. I don't think I really play any one particular way with Bang, it just depends on the match-up, what I feel like doing in any given match, and/or who I'm playing against. Of course if someone is outright better than me I can't just do whatever I want. Or if a match-up is rough, it's the same thing, unless I'm a little better than the other person (rarely) then I can try different things anyway. Like someone else said I was using FRKZ all the time after I played them, lol.
Errol Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 you did FRKZ me all the time. FRKZ is worse than playing against Tao
zeth07 Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 you did FRKZ me all the time. FRKZ is worse than playing against Tao Nothing is worse than fighting Tao....except maybe Arakune.
_rFX Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Hmm...most people (understandably) don't seem to wanna play you if you're terrible, but it's kinda hard to get better if you don't have anyone to play... Yo, this is some ancient Chinese riddle ****. I could never even get my hands out of the finger trap. I tried mashing; it didn't work. How do you expect me to solve this?! /whine
demABCs Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 GGs to everyone who stopped by my lobby tonight. Was a very productive night indeed, noticed some areas that I need to work on. Hmm...most people (understandably) don't seem to wanna play you if you're terrible, but it's kinda hard to get better if you don't have anyone to play... Yo, this is some ancient Chinese riddle ****. I could never even get my hands out of the finger trap. I tried mashing; it didn't work. How do you expect me to solve this?! /whine Yea it happens to me every now and then since I'm still lacking in this game. Sometimes I'll just get kicked from a lobby as soon as I enter because I'm only level 18 or whatever, but oh well XD. You can add me if you want to play sometime.
BlackYakuzu94 Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 I usually go on Ranked, because then they haave to fight you :P

I usually go on Ranked, because then they haave to fight you :P They don't have to fight you, people can dodge on ranked just by backing out before confirming a match.
susano Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Hmm...most people (understandably) don't seem to wanna play you if you're terrible, but it's kinda hard to get better if you don't have anyone to play...

Errol Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 (edited) Nothing is worse than fighting Tao....except maybe Arakune. Confession time. I am actually enjoying playing against Toankaka lately. I'll play if you're up to it. Always getting called out for not playing people here so...here I am. You don't get called out for not playing people worse than you. Just saying Also if anyone want to play now let me know Edited March 16, 2013 by Errol
Nemesis Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Anyone wanna ft 10 my Carl? (Please be good) :D I could do a FT10 if your willing to XBL - leme know

Just saying Also if anyone want to play now let me know I'm not amazing to begin with so I don't know why people want to play when I'll just be a waste of time and they'll get free wins anyway. And I don't target bad players.
Moy_X7 Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 New positive attitude, huh? lol You're not amazing but you're not completely ass either. It's not a waste, every match is a learning experience, whether it's for you or for them. Practicing your execution, pressure, neutral game, reactions, what to do and what not to do, all that, it's never a waste. People need to look beyond the whole "winning and losing" thing and just have fun from time to time. There are players who I can dominate for games on end and there are players who dominate me in the same way. We never talk about "free wins" or "being a waste of time". You can never stop getting better at the game and for that you need experience by playing all types of players from different skill levels.
