lol, mixups? millia has fucking unblockables. l think you need to witness the amount of salt her mixups can generate, its unreal

Well said dragontamer. I always figured block loops had to be long and fancy looking (oh Melty <3), but they do not, and what you said makes a lot of sense, at least to me. In bb I thought blockstrings were about how fast you can make your overheads look ( its a Rachel thing, lol), not about safety; but I learned something new I suppose. Hopefully this will improve my game as a whole.

cs2 is out in na today... on xbox sigh

as a matter of fact, l think xbl gets it tomorrow. psn has to still wait D: so youre good.

l think its jp only, which shouldnt be a problem if someone has a jp copy

fio has gotten extremely solid since cs2. and that ragna was vicious. never watched naru before... l like this guy.

in rachel's gatling chart, there is no 4b gatling column in the top row.

ahaha, how many people would come from every state just to hit that.

bang still gonna be real good then? will be fun... just, hope he dosent get ara or carl'd out... l know he started hating them again.

ahaha, nice.

can l help with rachel?

This combo is irritating: (corner) throw 5b j.c 2d dj delay j.2c(lv2) land 2a whiff 5c(whiff)c 214a dash 3c(1) 236a (frog hits) dash 5cc dash 3c(1) 214c 3c(1) frog Oki. It's the most optimal combo I've seen and I've been trying to nail it consistently for two weeks. Has anyone found a way to do this? edit: finally got it :3 forget it

bang and rachel actually have alot of similarities. besides from physical things like hating bell peppers and have bad hitboxes, theyre both very impulsive, and they both hate losing. theyre both 'leaders' of their respective areas due to their old man dying, and they both have subordinates. among other things... l dont think theres actual hate in here, lol. personally l can tolerate bang again, but he's still at the top of my hitlist when cs2 drops. a level 3 j.2c for every 5a that landed during cs1... yes, that is quite a fitting punishment. l shall enjoy my sadistic act, ohoho...

does any rachel player? since ct, bang has been in all the rachel combo vids (there arent much for rachel, sadly). all of them. msy even had rachel do a top-of-the-screen j.2c on him at the end of his video. it wasnt even part of a combo, it just killed him. now thats some real ninja hatred right there.

Funny I was just testing this before I looked here because I wanted to say something else, but to answer your question, it works from 5b a vast majority of the time. It will not work too much off a max range 6b though. Instead you want to do 6b 3d j.b j.c land 5b... On standing characters, and 6b 3d j.2c... On crouching characters, from the little bit I experimented with. Or you can do 6bd 3c, but sometimes 3c is too far away...

l did this. it was a foundation of sorts. lasers work when they want to though :l

thats just j.c though. 5c was pretty shitty and 6c was a deathwish if you whiffed or it was ib'd, or if you count the 20f startup. once l thought she was an air char due to j.c but her normals arent suited for air to ground. mu covers mainly horizontal range, but she wasnt scary midscreen really. most of her good damage was from point blank hits which is pretty meh. l thought oki would work, but zidane pretty much shot that idea right away. l tried zoning, l tried trapping, l tried turtling and running away. l tried mixing everything. who knows maybe l was right somewhere. idk, but im curious as to how she will end up. that much l am, if only for the curiousity.

l still dont get what she is supposed to do at all and l dont think the issue here is complexity. if l had to describe her, she'd be a keepaway character with trap tools. she can keepaway better now, yes, but simply being keepaway... thats too general. most characters play keepaway at some degree. l think if mu somehow became the best character, l still wouldn't play her. im truly disgusted with the entire moveset. though l am interested in how she develops. how l was supposed to play her.

damn right l will. but im not planning to 2a/2d my way to victory. and im already playing rachel who l presume will be top tier by the end of cs2 anyway. ldc about tiers through l dont mind whoring either, if a character l like is at the top.

l actually lol'd at that even though l had no idea what was going on.

this thread is kinda dead now but you really were a big help lk, giving us your insightful thoughts (and everyone that helped too ). l for one appreciate it, l needed some sort of guidance since l was struggling along on my own alot. anyway yeah thx again

thats maori l believe, she does look a bit interesting

nah liese is cool, kind of cute too. im not quitting her, however l... dont really get the doll. so many possibilities. lm not sure if l can apply her in real matches effectively :< im still working on her and real matches should get my doll skills going so ill be alright. lol, psn should be up within the week, but... things happen. the problem though is once you get it... takes about 3 hours to download. lf you hype yourself up too much to play this game, the download may seem like an eternity.

im so damn bored. tired of practicing its getting me nowhere anyway liese is too much damn work, fuck this im going back to nazuna
