Nizzy Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Since we're on the subject of Azreal, why the fuck is he so OP? I mean seriously, he literally runs over everyone and in other characters` story modes, he's not even trying. He wounds Rachel, something nobody, not even Terumi, has managed, beats Jin despite his awakening to the Power of Order and is able to go toe to toe with Ragna after he unleashes the Azure. I think they're trying a little too hard with the Badass Ax Crazy Blood Knight angle, not even Kenpachi was this OP. I don't know why Azrael is like that, but that's exactly why i love him. And lolz at the thought of him losing to Platinum Edited April 3, 2013 by Nizzy
Starlight777 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Oh yea, that was a thing. Don't you mean jobbing? Yes that's the term I was looking for. Ragna even jobbed to Relius offscreen.
LionHeartx Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Yeah its weird knowing that Azrael made the others look so free without even releasing his limiter (which he might have multiple levels of lololol) they gonna have to jump the shit outta this dude.
BlackYakuzu94 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Fact: Your power level in Blazblue is entirely dependent on who needs to look good at the time. I don't know why Azrael is like that, but that's exactly why i love him. And lolz at the thought of him losing to Platinum I love him for that too, but it's to the point where I don't even think Hazama's plot armor is immune for his OPness. Edited April 3, 2013 by BlackYakuzu94
NovaFortuna Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I have rather mixed feelings with Azrael being OP. I mean, cool to have a new kind of bad guy around and he is pretty stylish at that as well, but I never liked when they more or less humilliate characters to make a newcomer look good. Some scenarios are more justified, like the character was told to be that strong or it's a new main villiain, I mean when you at least have a buildup to see the new guy stomp everyone. But with Azrael it kinda just feels they are trying too hard to cement him as resident badass. They could have go that way with him just fighting and leaving Jin, Valkenhay and Tager and kept going with Enchant Dragunov against Ragna for the same effect. On the other side, regardless of how OP Azrael is, he is just one shonen power up away from biting the dust in the story. Which is what Hazama is immune to, if he gets beaten he just has a backup plan.
Volt Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 On the other side, regardless of how OP Azrael is, he is just one shonen power up away from biting the dust in the story. And when that happens, Platinum will kill him for real.
LiveWireX Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 And when that happens, Platinum will kill him for real. The thought of a Limiter-less Azrael getting flattened by a Cat Hammer is hilarious.
Vulcan422 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Can't wait when the story mode reveals Azrael is not human, and is actually S7's own version of a Murakumo unit or some shit like that. Also I support Azrael being OP in canon, he's just that badass of a character. Edited April 3, 2013 by Vulcan422
mAc Chaos Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 This reminds me of a lot of characters sandbagging to Relius anytime he appeared. But they were trying and lost, right? Sandbagging is losing on purpose.
TPPR10 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Thinking that Platinum would (canonically) beat Azrael would be funny, but at the same time make me hate Platinum even more. Really, everything about her makes me hate her. Luna is the second biggest bitch, Sena's voice is soo annoying, and Trinity, well, isn't exacly smart. I mean, she dispelled Nine's Mind Eater magic forwards Hazama, for crying out loud.

I mean, she dispelled Nine's Mind Eater magic forwards Hazama, for crying out loud. That's because Terumi manipulated Trinity's feelings for him to do so, i think it was already weakening. Besides, people in Blazblue made bigger mistakes. Like when Jubei sent Noel off to the Librarium only for her to become cold God-Slayer Mu-12! and when Ragna accidentally unleashes the black beast who destroy's the entire planet in his bad ending!
TPPR10 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 and when Ragna accidentally unleashes the black beast who destroy's the entire planet in his bad ending! Yeah, because NO ONE never said to him what would happen if he overused Azure (I never get why you only need to lose to Rachel in order to get that ending) Though I argee on the Jubei part. I mean, Jubei knows that Hazama is bad news, but sends Noel to her doom on her own? Heck, Makoto knows that Hazama is bad news, but she doesn't go into details why when she was talking to Noel why.

Makoto found out that Noel was the 12th prime field device while in Ikaruga, she probably just wanted to spare her friend the truth that she was just a machine created by humans. Makoto only knows what any other Sector Seven Agent knows about Hazama, that and Hazama's over all sinister aura. The best Makoto could've done was to warn her to stay away from Hazama. (Which she did.)

Jubei probably knew something would happen and sent her anyway as a test or chance for her to grow. That's pretty much what he always does. He knew Ragna would meet Hakumen and Nu after all in CT.

TPPR10 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 First of all, WoF Hazama pretty much broke down when Makoto mensioned Noel. So you figure Makoto would do more than tell Noel to stay away from Hazama, especially if Noel would be important part of Hazama's plan. Second, yeah, great job Jubei, you send Noel into her doom, what would cause the DESTRUCTION OF THE WORLD, just to test mentally unstable girl. Great job. I think Hazama actually has bunch of Idiot Balls with him what he throws at people.
Wild Candy Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Hey, if Noel never became Mu, we wouldn't have much of a story for Continuum Shift, would we?
Starlight777 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 But they were trying and lost, right? Sandbagging is losing on purpose. I meant jobbing, I always get the two mixed up for some reason.

I think Hazama actually has bunch of Idiot Balls with him what he throws at people. I always wondered what plan that WoF Hazama was up to, since him and Relius were talking about how they'd been working for a long time to set things up, and then Makoto mentions Noel and he acts like it ruins everything... even though in the BB timeline we normally see, he needs Noel to make all his plans work. I meant jobbing, I always get the two mixed up for some reason. Isn't that the same thing.
Starlight777 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I thought jobbing meant making an otherwise strong character lose in an embarrassing fashion to make a new character look good.
Errol Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 No, it's about making someone look good at your expense. there's a lot of other stuff mixed in what you said
mitsuyoshi Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Wait a sec,since when Jubei sent Noel to the librarium?if you say it was in the event where the two of them met then you wrong,jubei only ordering Noel to find Jin and doesn't say anything about the librarium.

mitsuyoshi Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Well that was really a good info and for Relius,he is talking to Hakumen that he want to receive Amaterasu unit and make it become his own puppet and he already have a plan for doing so without using Noel power,as for Platinum,when she was talking to Hazama she get teleportted by Phantom to herself,no clue why Phantom doing this though maybe she want to talk with Platinum. This is the information i know about Relius and Platinum arcade,i am sorry if i wrong.
Vulcan422 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Thanks to based Abelcru we will finally have answers soon.
