Hey im new to using arcade stick and was wondering if there was a good way to press the buttons for blazblue. I use taokaka and i have abc on top and d on bottom. I put thumb on d and index on a, middle on b, ring on c... I was wondering if there was a better way or do i just need to practice cuz wenever i play, my ring finger kinda freezes up on me and i press buttons slower... So am i using it right n just need more practice? Cuz my ring finger always feels slower!! Or is there a better way ? Thx

Arg im having problems doing a basic combo.. The one thats like... 236c - 2d - 9c - 9d - 9c... For some reason, like 95 percent of the time, my combo keeps messing up!!! Like while im doing 9d to 9c, tao stops attacking! and i do it really fast.. I also tried doing it a lil slower but most the time it messes up on me err anyone know why??? Thanks.. I just started trying to learn combos with tao so im kinda new i guess. Oh yea anothe question i have is.. how do people know when to block?? I never block in fighting games and just button mash but i want to learn now! When i watch pros play, they seem to always know when to block! How??whenever i block, its always at the wrong time or it ends up with me better off not blocking in the first place. T.T i am a total fighting game noob lol
