TD

I don't know my own character ;_; 6d is a projectile too iirc, not sure about the other d versions now. They're probably projectiles too, or just too weak to break through sledge. If player 2 amane can 236d through player 1 amane 5d then they are projectiles.

amane scarves are indeed physical property and not projectiles. In fact, the only projectiles he has is the hariken (ground) drill and the super hariken drill.

Your question is ok, just in the wrong thread. If you want it answered you need to post it in the appropriate thread, the link of which was provided by ichipoo. You may ask the first question there. Sorry for the derailment

Really? Sure that's not just correlated to the hit/block properties and not the projectile itself? There is a difference. I will admit to not studying cp data at all compared to other bb games, but I do remember there being separate, projectile levels before, not related to the standard level each attacking move gets, but one similar to projectile durability (which projectile will win against which). That would make his 5d one of the strongest projectiles in the game, and I think I've seen it nullified by some things... Gonna do some research on this.

That won't work as well as you think. Also I believe the highest level projectile is level 2 or 3, definitely not higher than 3. Just don't remember where it was mentioned...

huh... on second thought, his legs do appear to make him look a bit dwarflike. not kliff or king farquad levels, but he's probably going to be a bit less than average male height. or he could end up being tall anyway because screw the rules. I just hope he has some zoning tools. please dont disappoint with another sol, ragna or even celica arcsys..

thank you. man this guy does not skip a workout lol. I wonder how tall his sprite is going to be.

1f backdash or ODR. Doesnt look easy to escape from what i have seen. Sword advantage may be similar to how hazama chains used to work, which means frame advantage changes depending on the level of the sword (which is determined by distance traveled). Or it could just be the same 23f blockstun...

Where are you guys seeing artwork already?

Sex sells, good luck getting all the titties out of your face cause it aint going nowhere.

yay, another minazuki. what happened to the book?

mash c 6 or more times before the second stomp. does not include the initial 22c.

I mean its our job to figure it out and im sure thats what many people are going to do. No one is going to hold our hands and at some point or another most characters and therefore players had top tier status. Its not the end of the world. I for the most part was explaning her top status. She may not be the best candidate for top but it is what it is. Not gonna stop me from trying to win tournaments (as soon as i get enough time to start entering again :< ) But seriously she might end up getting some hatemail, just embrace it i guess.

The bit about rachel at least from me was only because this was the most recent footage, and the rachel vs nu matchup was the most played during the video. Regardless of whether it is general or not nu will most likely lose alot of her bad matchuos due to her now insanely terrifying offense alone. There doesnt seem to be anything anyone could do reliably against swords now besides trying to avoid them or outright beating them with something, which many charscters just cannot do. She has always sort of ignored defensive system options because of the nature of her swords, but being able to reliably trap people where they are on successful block for 5-10 seconds at a time (if they last that long), is something new for her, or anyone really. Hopefully something changes, like there being some holes in her drive offense perhaps to backdash or jump and make her whiff any followups. As it stands new gravity well negates even those options.

nu can reset pressure for days, can slightly delay swords to screw up IB, gravity is her best reset option which comes back insanely fast as well as being amazing utility for her offensive and defensive zoning, gets very good damage from the braindead ct combo 5dd 4dd (5dd 4dd) 236d RC 5dd 6dd 2dd air combo. due to being able to reverse beat 5dd 4dd into 5dd again and resets very similar to litchi's (but BETTER because too much of the cast cannot do anything about it), good mixup options in a faraway, very safe overhead with safe options afterward including going back into it after gravity/5d, and a command low, in top of good mobility in act parsers and general fast movement, she has very much returned to her former CT glory. even in cp2 where the bottom tiers minus amane actually look GOOD, she is decimating. like you have to block her for a long time now. if you block 6d or 2d now she can sword you down to the ground to start her strings, no thoughts necessary. unless you have a move like bang or amane horizontal reversal supers, there is no reliable way to get out of her long pressure strings without ODR... she may or may not be even worse than CT nu in the long run. she seems mostly developed and most likely wont get too much but players will get better with her and she is already able to shut down so many options that it is not going to be fun fighting her no matter who you are. N-O looked like he was mentally defeated in some of those matches vs naga. that says alot about how this matchup and many others will look like in the long run, because N-O is one of the best rachels in the world, and these characters and players are already seasoned and defined to the point of having very similar styles after every balance patch.

Its their way of flipping the bird to unreactable 50/50's. Dont want to worry about DP's? Play nu, relius, even carl. Especially nu since shes very quickly reverting to CT levels of annoying in 2.0.

Black hole is dishonest. Safe instant overheads are dishonest. Being infinite Spider-Man is dishonest. Anything unfair at a top level is dishonest. Below that and you're getting mostly opinions. Given the games development, dishonest in bb should be fairly easy to spot, it tends to be something the top and A+ tiers have in an otherwise decently balanced game.

Without mobility, tager will still rely on the foe coming close to him until he gets spark bolt. How painful is a pain bot if it can't catch the victim enough to inflict it. He needs a flick, or a barrier, or something to combat zoners. One good property could make tager a truly balanced and powerful character.

Basically. Even from short starter in the corner she should be able to go for pumpkin at least. I've seen N-O do j2da jb 5cc 5b 6a 236a 6a 4b (3c) into summon, usually pumpkin. There is a small gap after 5cc which lets her move backward slightly, improving tech punish combos while still allowing oki with 2a OS.

Who do you play? And do you use a pad or a stick? I play on pad. I tend to rub my thumb in a controlled motion for 236236. It's simple and is really just something that needs to be practiced, I agree. Hope this tip helped though.

dustloop is also your friend btw

playing patiently is living patiently. patience is the best thing any person can have in a fighting game. acceptance is important, so is knowledge and memory, etc. but patience fuels motivation, improving the amount of time and effort you put into the game, and therefore making you smarter. patience 101 breathe deeply through your nose, rest the air in your stomach, hold... release through your mouth slowly. close your eyes briefly during times alone. try to understand... everything. develop a sense of curiosity. question everything, see what you come up with. open your mind and let it roam free. keep it empty. let intuition guide you. *** done being priestly pablo for the day. tl;dr keep playing while you have fun, calming down = patience, patience is a virtue. believe in yourself and keep playing. any questions?

Happy Hallows eve, gentlemen... The queen insists we have chocolate cake in this day, on her behalf. HappyBirthdayRachel.jpg

This is cool, thanks. I have a question, though. Does this mean you have changed your mind about speculating tier lists and whatnot? Considering you just posted this, not long after the first speculated list was posted. That list had flaws but dogura's isn't even complete, so. Just asking. Edit: impressions. Rachel is still strong, not overwhelmingly so. Good skill and 50/50's will still win games, and her overall risk/reward was tweaked so that she will still require excellent understanding of the character. Anyone playing her has to be more cognitive in the neutral. More or less the same gameplan. Should be fun.

I've always found nu somewhat unpleasant... Until now. Not even going to waste time complaining about how she got x tool and y resource and just be first in the soon-to-be long line of ship jumpers. All aboard the Nu Express!
