6C gatlings into 2D? Really? I didn't know that.

Well when was the last time you did 6C in a block string lol

[WolfCrimson]

I've hardly played ragna in CSE, so... A really long time ago?

[Fistmaster049]

Well when was the last time you did 6C in a block string lol

I throw it in every now and again for giggles....and are usually surprised how many it catches people out, I assume I'm catching backdashes or something because I usually delay it a little

other than that, never used it outside of combos and thats how it should be

6C gatlings into 6D, not 5D or 2D

I play Ragna. I've used 5d in block strings, results have been beneficial, and I have been commended for excelling in pressure overall

none of that shit fucking matters if you don't fucking win

and i don't mean any of those fradulence-based wins

Must have remembered that wrong. Well, just to give an example of a normal that does indeed gatling into 2D but not 5D, there's 3C.

Evidently Scythe is cross-up capable, although Jin blocks it.

Sorry, i should have been more clear: competent jp players, like hara and kaqn

Wow, i'm probably the only one that disagrees with this.

Kaqn isn't a bad player. He's far from the best, but he's competent.

And here I thought I had been completely ignorant of a gatling of my main I've been playing since the beginning of the franchise (on console).

Reasons to do 5D gattling/raw:

> You think they're going to jump (5B>5D since 5C vertical hitbox is gone) or super jump (raw 5D, but requires a lot of guts because if you fuck up you die. also this only works in the corner)

> Noel

Not reasons to do 5D gattling/raw:

> INSERT YOUR REASON HERE

I can't believe I even have to talk about this.

nah

[Tong]

I'm a little more concerned about the CT-like oki...

[mAc Chaos]

i thought everybody hated kaqn now

like he's all gimmicks or something

[KayEff]

i say he's bad, but noooo no one wants to listen to me

[LuminAbyss]

Real talk, who cares, just watch whoever, recognize what works, learn from what doesn't.

Of course not, you're a mod. No one listens to mods.

its the hype kf, follow the leader, follow the leaderrrrrr.

if blood scythe crosses up, does it hit later in its active frames or about the same?

when it crosses it looks a bit later, possibly making it a bit safer?

[KayEff]

Of course not, you're a mod. No one listens to mods.

i bet you someone out there is actually taking skye's advice about 5D

Kaqn could probably beat most Americans, but that's not saying much. He's pretty dumpster tier compared to the BB gods.

I'd say using 5D(1) into DS on very rare occasion back in the day would have been all right, but now that DS is no longer plus on block... yeah... RIP Ragna.

[Tong]

Kaqn's been everyone inspiration since CT... that's not easy to change. But indeed, there are more solid players.

I wonder if this happens in Hazama/Jin forums, but with Buppa.

[LuminAbyss]

Is there any confirmation that DS is no longer plus on block? I've seen it dash cancelled a lot and no one really mash out of it. It looks plus on block to me, if it's dash cancelled.

[KayEff]

dead spike > dc is either plus or zero on block, i've seen a purple throw done before

[Skye]

i bet you someone out there is actually taking skye's advice about 5D

I'm simply saying that it exists and originally, what can be used to follow up from CH 5d. Iirc I never advised anything.

[TITANIUM BEAST!!!]

Interestingly enough, kaqn is currently the number 2 rank Ragna, number 1 being kogatan.
