Well I didn't say they were good matches.

I wasn't taking a stab at you at all for posting that match. I was just basically saying "Oh yeah i remember seeing these vids, made me wonder wtf Kaqn was doing lol"

Can't even win consistently against a scrub makoto.

Goro is good

kaqn for sole remaining ragna hero

I was never, ever able to do IAD 623D. It's so awkward to pull off (then again, I have bad execution).

Hara and Buppa don't seem to be doing bad with him either. I'd say Ragna is pretty solid this time around. Maybe even just a little bit higher than that. His damage is just not as derpy as it was in the last game.

Lame...so new move is combo-only material again? Reminds me of BE :I: (outside of AA punishes or whatever other rare occasion)

Same for me. I could only do it if I was 100% focused on it, never really practiced it. Probably finally will now though.

Ground scythe is still plus on block. Only reason they mentioned TK scythe is because it starts up faster, but I guess that's all it has over the ground version. That being said, ground blood scythe seems really good for pressure and I see it used pretty often. If you're too predictable, it'll probably get you anti-aired though.

use it against nu spike chaser

other possibilities might include nu's legacy edge, ragna's dead spike, jin's 623D(2), mu's 6C, any of litchi's [m] footsies (unlikely), carl's volante, hakumen's fullscreen shippuu (it happens), plat's missiles (maybe just using it to get out or something), and amane's top

tick 2A > blood scythe

run up blood scythe to avoid haku 3C and possibly 4C and 6C

use it to make counters whiff

I'm sure errol was poking fun at the fact that most rag mains really like to downplay kaqn and the people he plays.

Notice how during one of the matches Goro suddenly appears with an 8-win streak. I'm not saying Kaqn didn't hold his own against Goro in the matches shown, but it's not a good idea to draw very definite conclusions from only the matches that were uploaded.

I can see TK BS being useful in pressure to catch out mashing, depending on the character, and what their mashing obviously.

I don't think i'd be using BS much in pressure anyway, although it's plus on block, it's so slow and seems easy to react to with an air grab or anti-air. Expect to be hit out of it a lot against the more agile players.

I see people throwing out BS so much as if it has a 1F start up and is +9000 on block.

I'd use it alot too, considering no one seems to ever bother trying to anti-air it. Everyone seems comfortable just up-backing against it instead.

TK BS will be another Ragna special in that it will be several times better when you have meter to RC it. Basically an easy mode cross up in contrast to IAD DID. RC for combo or further mixup shenanigans.

Posted

can max range jC bs hit same side? either that could serve as mixup, or maybe there could be left right mixup between blood scythe and gh cancel haha

Let me fix that. From what I've seen, TK BS looks punishable. It seems to be only regular BS that's safe.

MAN I WANT THAT FRAME DATA/THIS GAME.

But aww, it's punishable? Sadness.
