ElvenShadow Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Speaking of the new RC system: Besides the major rebalancing it would bring, what if the Overdrives cost 25% outside of combos like YRCs, and Forcebreaks cost 50% during the combo if they were added back? How about no... Sounds broken as hell. Would u like Faust to do random item super for 25%!? I would feel dirty if I could... Despite various other reasons why that's just a bad idea
Jakestation Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 There would be also DOT in every slayer combo. Round would end up in 2 combos. Venom could chipp opponent to death with few dark angels. Pot could combo 2 gigantors easily which would always stun etc. Yeah would be the most stupid thing to do with GG mechanics.
Stellarcircle5 Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 That would allow Millia to use Chroming Rose ALL THE time. Enjoy being in blockstun for the whole match.
SoWL Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 I think people are missing the "Outside of combos" part of the post. Though yeah, various setup supers that don't require you to hit your opponent with them get kinda crazy with that.
Henaki Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 You people are honestly insane lol. Potemkin Doesnt need ALL THAT MUCH. 2s vacuum and a.c. heat knuckle and he would be insane. Potemkin players correct me if im wrong, but this, and a overhead (like 6k from the past) and he would be a real monster by monster proportions From what I can gather, this seems adequate, along with nerfing Zato (who needs it), to bring Pot to a solid mid tier. Â The balance looks pretty close, I'm guessing Pot's only truly shit matchups are Zato and Ramlethal and maybe Bedman. From what I can see, all the other characters look fairly even.

Â Random Fortissimo > 50% health combo that gives back the meter spent on the starter > knockdown > oki 50/50 do it again or something else.
rayplay Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Dragon install, do 50%, neutral for 5 seconds, dragon install again. Chroming Rose, shit all over you, chroming rose again because she builds meter during it. I-No yolo air super, get fucked, neutral 5 seconds if you block it, yolo air super again. Ramcham spinny sword, block this stuff/get opened up, do spinny sword again. I don't have to go on.
comoesa Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 The new RC reminds me of v-ism activation in alpha 3.
Jakestation Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 This year’s highly anticipated Arc Revolution Cup 2014 has been officially announced, and will feature the top three fighting game titles from the developer Arc System Works. Note: the Arc Revolution Cup 2014 is not to be confused with the previously reported Pre Arc Revolution Cup 2014, a much smaller tournament designed to help build hype for the real deal. BlazBlue: Chronophantasma, Persona 4: The Ultimax Ultra Suplex Hold, and Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- are this year’s three fighting game platforms which top players will compete in as part of the annual tournament. To compete in the tournament finals, champion hopefuls have to first compete in preliminary rounds taking place all over Japan starting June 14. Only by winning a preliminary tournament will a player earn the right to kick butt on the grand stage at the Big Site TFT Hall in Tokyo on August 30-31. If this year’s tournament is anything like last year’s, livestreams of the finals will be available so fans of the games will be able to catch the action online.
DeathArcana Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 thats pretty cool, hopefully I will have a better understanding of the game's mechanics by then though
Ronove Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 August 30th ... I suppose it wouldn't be weird if Arc Sys officially announced Xrd's release date for the home console on that day too.

Â I am gonna arrive to Tokyo on Jun 2nd, i doubt that i will accomplish anything with 2 weeks experience but i will do my best. anyway watching Arc Rev finals could make up for the SBO that i always wished to attend. Â August 30th ... I suppose it wouldn't be weird if Arc Sys officially announced Xrd's release date for the home console on that day too. Â Â I think that we will hear about console version at E3 because Ishiwatari will be presenting the game personally.
ElvenShadow Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Yup, time for another season of quals! I'm in there.
D.R.F. Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Yup, time for another season of quals! I'm in there. Nothing but luck when you go shadow! How's the faust tech going?
TITANIUM BEAST!!! Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 I'd like to see sols priority lowered a bit but im okay with the characters overall  nuuuuu leave Sol alone
TITANIUM BEAST!!! Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 He deserves it! Plus he looks fun and cool. Sol top tier 4ever plz.
D.R.F. Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Lol, I cant wait to use the lighter of fire and distill the shit outta people. Whens the next stream though?
Orrax Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 After playing mid-low tier Sol for the past couple games, I wouldn't mind playing high tier Sol.
king of heart Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 He deserves it! Plus he looks fun and cool. Sol top tier 4ever plz. True but i want Ky players to go back to Ky
qwerty Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 I want Johnny. And Baiken. And ABA. And a personal letter of apology from Daisuke for not including them to begin with.
Casper Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 first off let me say that i  think sol is completely fine as he is but also that fafnir looks ridiiiiicccccccculous. on block you crank hella guard meter, on regular hit you take them midscreen (possibly further?) straight to the corner, on CH you take them to the corner and also get a huge combo etc. sol gets better rewards off fafnir  than something like slayers pilebunker without any of the risk. it seems like whenever sol is in neutral in xrd you may as well throw it out... the worst case scenario is you whiff but it recovers pretty quickly.
king of heart Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Didn't anyone manage to find the characters color sheet ?
