It sounds like it could be good, although you could risk losing a persona primer if they reversal. I've seen Naotos just do trap > 2A meaty for oki which seems to be working in videos so far. edit: oh you mean AFTER they block a trap. Then yeah I've seen Naoto do some cool mixups with 5D followups before. It looks like you can do some mean staggers, tick throws, and airdash high low during it.

Bursts are awful in that game lol. That feeling when your burst gets airthrown.

GGs to D1ce, your Litchi is solid but holy crap would it kill you to not wakeup backdash every single time? I mean I know Tsubaki does old lady damage but there were some rounds where I'd just reset you to death because you wouldn't block. =(

I don't think Justin played me after I discovered my Gold Burst addiction... But yeah I got frustrated against Valkenhayn and started doing whatever. I got a pure 3c starter and was like "just add gold burst". I mean- I GOLD BURST WHENEVER I WANT TO

GGs everyone I played today. I'm free to Makoto. And shoutouts to Noels that know SMP combos but have no neutral game.

God damn, Kuresu not giving a single fuck. My Tsubaki hero. Great examples of how he approaches different matchups and what optimal combos to use.

You can do a reasonably swag combo with 6B RC if you're near player starting position and want to get that corner carry. Just replace the 5B with 2B inbetween the 6As to make it more stable, and you can end with 5D > safejump or 5D > j2C oki or whatever if you don't have 100 meter.

Just make sure to backdash/otherwise check to see if they'll try to reversal out if they IB. Of course, a lot of people who aren't familiar with Mu won't know that her overhead is -1 so on normal block you can sometimes get away with dash in 2A or what-not to continue pressure. Also, both hits are special cancellable, so you can do tricks like 6B(1hit) > 236A, 6B(1hit) > 236D or 214D, etc. But yeah. Even that little SoD hit sends them flying, where Mu can set up her gameplan and take control of the match, even if she hasn't taken half your life in one combo (yet).

Lol. Thankfully only one move in a combo counts towards depleting the fate gauge, unless you use one of her gun supers. But yeah. Imagine if they discover SMP combos for other characters; plz patch soon Arcsys.

Okay so after numerous virus scans I can get Melty Blood to run at 50 fps on my shittastic computer. Well until somebody goes into Blood Heat anyways; but at least I can practice combos and stuff now. edit: oh lord more practical SMP combos with Naoto - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4YVtesMRjU&feature=plcp

Oh Ryudo was there? That's a shame he quit; his Litchi was really good. That's cool that you found another person into BB, would be cool if we could get a new person into our scene. Did he mention who he plays? Oh wow I remember that guy getting carried out of the crowd. Lol Dacidbro almost not giving a fuck.

Don't worry Oni, Norse had to leave early so either way we would only have like 3 people. We went ahead and had some games anyway but the rankings didn't change that much. Since CMSora was two ranks above Norse's rank, he used Bang as a sub and then switched to Makoto because he wanted to use another char; don't know if you want to count that or not Zeth. Final rankings are: Neo_Zeromus_X (MU) 3rd -1 NorseFTX (TS) 1st +/-0 CMSORA (JI) 4th +2 CMSORA (BA) 2nd 0 CMSORA (MK) 1st +1 I'll offer to host the West Danisen league any Friday/Saturday that I don't go to an offline meetup or other irl activity, but the recent turnout is a little discouraging. Maybe a Persona danisen (if Zeth chooses to do one) will attract more players.

How long do you think it will take you to get home Oni? I think we'll be okay if you're just like 15-20 minutes late. I don't want to have to cancel again. =(

GGs pneuma, KayEff, Ronald-kun, anyone else I played. Sorry if I annoyed you Ronald, I was super-tired and wanted to see how well I would do without giving any fucks. The results were entertaining.

GGs giga, Moy, Ronald, and Gamma, and anyone else who played my day 1 Scrubinum the Fraudity. I have to go to bed, I'm so tired I'm pretty much fishing for 6C FC to do Mu combo videos at this point.

There was this gdlk Singaporean Lambda named Zack wrecking some people. There was also Bloodwolf who I THINK plays on PSN who was really solid and a pretty cool guy. I'm pretty sure they were recorded on the stream.

You are a terrible parent Justin. Just kidding. But you totally should've come to expose everyone with your 1-week CSEX Bang. We just need to play more and get better. Cali and PNW have regular meetups and events to play more and get better while we kind of just play whenever and mess around; we have good fundamentals we just need to practice more. Jimmy. Go through a training arc in Japan and come back to body us all.

BB is pretty much declining in Japan like it is here. I overheard Chou saying that most of the top players over there play more Persona and that is was "nostalgic" to see so many people playing BB. Lord Tenjo's son for playable char, then it turns out to be a daughter so we can have a kunoichi character.

Whenever I get a not-shit capture device and new computer, I wouldn't mind making some videos again. Wouldn't be nearly as many as before since I can't just plow through long JRPGs like when I was younger. Also this shit is hilarious: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtYEUaMHHkw#

Oh fuck, didn't notice because of EVO but apparently Tales of Xillia is actually coming over to the west. I forgive you for not giving us Vesperia PS3 Namco.

^The stream recordings for all side tourneys and P4 casuals is on twitch.tv/Xiei In singles I won against the first two people I fought, then lost to The Biter's Valkenhayn. I tried to do fancy oki without meaty'ing properly beforehand and got blown up. I can't remember who I lost to in loser's. I must've lost so bad, I blocked the match out of my memory lol. Teams, I was doing okay against Spark until I did an LK burst. Then it all went downhill from there. Of course, even if I pulled a win I'd have to reverse-OCV against Huey and Xie which would be some next level shit. In Losers we lost to AJ's Tao. He was legit and I don't think any of us really knew the matchup. I wouldn't be so hard on yourself Tubazo; I think you should have done more things like I already mentioned but we were all dropping combos like it's hot. I hope you keep with BB or at least still play it for fun because we don't really have a lot of players left.

Thanks guys. =) I got pretty rocked by The Biter though lol. My Gold Bursts weren't fraudulent enough; they became Lord Knight bursts.

Neo_Zeromus_X I'll offer to host the West League, 7 PM MST. Sign up West people.

Thanks C0R, I was hoping to see you there and learn more forbidden Mu technology. I had a lot of fun against PNW players, wanted to face Huey and play against Spark more.

Shoutouts to Xie for organizing the tournaments and everyone who showed up and supported BlazBlue. GGs/shoutouts to AJ, brkrdave, Chou, Zack/Singapore Lambda, Steve/Texas Jin, Jason/PNW Hakumen, Tsubaki player with red vest, Ragna with white shirt, Bloodwolf, Eshi, shtkn, pulsr, hopefully I'm not forgetting anyone. Congrats to Huey winning singles, Xie almost winning the tournament he ran, Dave placing third, and Spark OCV'ing the team tournament. Shoutouts to blocking Dave's instant overhead crossup, making him exclaim "impossible...!" like some shonen anime and then never getting to play him again.
