Amane footage from yesterday: Shadow vs Kaqn: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7uD2pFE1Do (VS Ragna) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B029NrfzZu4 (VS Ragna) Shadow vs Buppa http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qewgz6GG2Bg (VS Hazama) - Best Set of all the videos, watch last if you can. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Q8w6of0PUI (VS Tao [LOL!] and Makoto) - New Negative Penalty rules Revealed, LOL (7:00) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21A3GFqBe-k (VS Makoto and Ragna) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgVKT5wMsQk (VS Jin) I might have to change my last statement about Amane vs Hazama probably being in Hazama's favor, these guys make it look pretty even. @ Shiro: Because ArcSys likes to troll people. This character was made to infuriate the opponent.

I have to agree with Toasty here. If people get hit up with something for a single post that's Off-topic, they would rather not post anything (Or straight up not visit the forums, which I've seen happen with tons of people) than to have something happen to them again, in their mind: Yeah, I messed up but someone could have PM me instead of docking me. Creating a "Gameplay" thread is probably the best option for now due to the fact that not many of us (probably only Bedsheets) having direct access to the game right now. The Jin boards are very well tamed with it's General thread and frankly, w/o it it was VERY DEAD. In there, we do go off topic here and there but that's a post or two then it's right back to business which is what's been happening here. I'm sure not every single post here is not toward gameplay and development but it goes right back into that after a few post that are off topic. It makes the boards more "friendly" to those on the outside to know "Hey, these guys are serious but having fun at the same time." which is what's been garnering us the attention we have and why so many people are involved in the development in this character. I don't think we could have made the progress we have w/o running things the way we have and it's very effective. We have the most post, and views and probably the most posters overall in this thread contributing information because it's not so strict here. Besides, it's not like it's becoming NVG...

Go ahead and make a group. But Circ is right; It's best we avoid any possible derailment of this thread again, it's purpose is to have General Discussion of "Amane's Game play", anything else can be discussed outside this thread. Let's keep it clean from here on out guys.

Moy, hit up Frosty Faustings man. It's here in Chicago so travel isn't gonna be as bad as it would be if you were to go to NEC. If December 29th is too soon, I'd suggest making plans for Final Round in ATL.

Mind sharing the link to this site? I'm interested in numbers as well.

There is that possibility but in previous games, the bowling ball usually pops off screen when it makes contact with another projectile. I wouldn't trust it.

OMG... that was horrible! Not only did Amane get perfected but bowling ball made contact Hariken and 6D and STILL kept going! I know that's the NO. 1 Tao ATM but damn that was free... Amane could not do anything in the corner, when I saw that, I knew it wasn't going to end well. I get where you're coming from but looking at that match, I could tell that even a more superior Amane player would have issues with this character.

You don't have the balls to do this...

It's as Eshi says, you gain Invul during the activation. Amane players MIGHT have to be careful of moves that are active longer than Jin's 5C because we don't have a solid reversal option so with moves like Ragna's 5B/2C (Dunno how active 5B is in CP but in all the other ones, 5B seems to keep getting better...), we may have to use Seijuu to get an offense going or Instant Block punish whatever they're throwing out. It's not a bad option seeing how in OD, that super get's a very nice buff and we can pick up a combo from it so it works out I guess. Less active moves I wouldn't be too worried about, OD activation appears to have enough invul to get past most normals.

Amane vs Rachel: 4:00 This match up is gonna be tough, I can just tell by watching this and other matches between these characters http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm19461231 And neither are the size of her breasts.

I don't see the issue with Shadow playing Amane, he's showing off a very solid way of playing him that people can learn from. Losing him early on in CP's development would be a shame if you ask me. I know Shadow is infamous for playing "Random Select" but this is one of the few times I've seen him stick to a character this early on. At least his bandwagon doesn't have the fans that Kaqn attracts... LMFAO!

Most likely, something tells me Amane wouldn't be able to pick up after that whiff, I know his 5C get's out there but I wanna say Jin could have hit the ground before it reaches him because of 6C's whiff. If Amane can pick up another combo with 5C after that, that would be too good! But hey, I've been wrong before.

That's actually a LV 2, you're probably not going to be able to make "that" specific combo into a red beat unless you Rapid Canceled, why waste the extra 50 heat on that? The move he follows up with is slow and low to the ground, there are much better combo follow ups you can choose from off of LV 2 Seijuu. EDIT: LOL! Jin is sad @ 16:40 - 16:50 That pushback from barrier screwed himself over! Then Amane does the ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ victory pose. So GDLK!

More of Shadow's Amane: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm19460955

At least Amane has Minato for his Persona Pallet, I am fine with this. I'll more than likely be rocking his "Green Lantern-like" Pallet since I was in love with them back in CT. I almost picked up Relius because of his lol!

Not sure about everyone else, but I'm not. I'm simply... *Whiffs hand through Hair* Fabulous. Shamed to say; I "daww'd" IRL I know right?! Bridget or Anji would have been perfect for him! But Bang already has Anji so the dream is dead. My goal is to babality the world with Amane, no one is exempt, including friends. Honestly, I think Nu players are the only ones that won't get salty after being hit with Amane's astral, she's damn adorable. IT will be Tsubaki's hat. *Calling it* I caught on it by accident when I first saw the video. I saw it and was like: "Was that on accident?" I happened to look down and saw he was at LV 3 and said: This guy is a "Freaking Genius!" I stood up from my chair and gave the player a round of applause our of respect. Yeah, seriously. You've been coming back to us with a ton of info and confirming things we've been discussing. If no one has straight out said it I will, Thanks for the work! I know you're doing us a huge favor but make sure you're enjoying the game yourself and not just working.

This news just keeps getting better and better.

Man, everybody's getting it in on their Amane Avatars LOL!

Well it is Rachel, she does throw aerial lolabella's to keep the opponent at bay so it would be a good tool in this match up. It would probably be useful in the Valk, Nu and Mu match ups. Those are a few characters I can see pressing buttons in that area due to their play style.

Not sure, but it's something I'm looking into and would like an answer to that as well.

Yes, LV 3 hits low. Thanks for the information on the other side StarGazer, it has really helped me out and I'll update my notes as soon as I get home. It's nice to see that LV 3 of that super gives even more untech time and it's not the same as the OD version (Should be expected) There's enough time to toss a ground spiral after 5D, Possible frame trap if spiral is at LV 3? (Not so sure but it appears it cold be) This guy... he's definitely one I'm going to keep my eyes open for.

Well if the parry doesn't catch lows than she cannot parry the LV 3 version, meaning she is forced to block low. Overall from what I'm reading if StarGazer is right (I won't question a Makoto main, LOL!), the parry isn't something we need to worry about on wake up, that's interesting. I'll have to make some changes to my notes.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA! SPINKING is playing Amane?! We are gonna see some of the dumbest things now! This news is amazing!

Finally got Amane fighting Rachel: BBCP 11/25/2012 Singles Tournament Part 1/5 - Amane vs Rachel It's not really a match where Amane plays too solid but you can look at it and see what worked and did not work. Earlier, someone asked if Fab-hop had any invul? The answer is no, in the match Amane tries to get out the corner with it but is stopped by Rachel's lightning.
