  1. XD Don't you and Vice-Taicho have a really good connection? You should join our rooms if you see them! It's rare for me to fight any Hakumen's, and it'd be cool if you joined if you could.

  2. The Lambda in the fourth match was harsh trolling :3 Anyways, 6C, 2C, and 6D were the primary tools used to attack Nirvana from afar. 4DD and 236D~C worked a lot better than I thought it would. Watch out for resets (easier said than done...), and find a creative way to get rid of Nirvana's projectile. 5C works, but I haven't fought enough Carl's to see whether it is the best tool to get rid of it. Actually, Carl can get hit by Lambda's D swords if he is point-blank next to Nirvana. The swords go slightly through her, such that Carl's hit-box can be touched by Lambda's drive, although the Carl shouldn't be that close anyway.
  3. About the Fatal Counter combo's... You can actually do the TK loop from a normal TK by landing and doing 5A > 6A > TK (easy 3K+). With a FC TK, you can do the same, except you get more reps (easy 4.5K+). Your opponent just has to be in the corner. Is it viable in a match? Very very rarely. But it's a nice thing to know ^.^

  4. Who is doing Lambda's combo's for IPW? :3 XD Sounds cool. I was going to volunteer if no-one else was going to do it, but then it'd be a bit more complicated. BTW, I've gotten a bit better since we've last played, so you should do another BBVlog recording of me. If I was 80% that day, I feel consistently 90-110% now, so I have improved quite a bit ^.^

  5. I'll put you in a room with one of my Makoto friends. Best Makoto I've ever fought, but Makoto is not even her main =/
  6. It's not too fast (44 frames for 236D, 50 for 236D~C), but if you condition the Carl player, it can be a useful tool. Carl is one of those characters who can't punish you as well as some other characters from across the screen, so Lambda's horrible recovery isn't as noticeable in this match-up.
  7. Haha, that's great. I just started Grade 11, and I haven't been "disappointed" yet (in the bad way :(). I wasn't really able to play games on the weekdays last year, but I've cut off some of my extracurricular activities this year, so hopefully that compensates. I'm actually proud with how I've done against Riot. We're 4-2 now for him, and I really want to fight him when we're both at our best. I didn't start playing good until later on that night, unfortunately. LostSoul wins 90% of our matches together. Looks like I need to focus on zoning him more. Yeah, I don't think it'd be that difficult to find a host as well. As for Lambda... Her only buffs should be faster start-up on 236D(~C) (44/50 frames), and faster recovery on her Drive (it ranges from 45-57 now...). For everyone who says Lambda doesn't have mix-up - well, she does, as long as you condition your opponent. I'm sure you noticed that when fighting Riot and me. Looking forward to playing you more, most definitely ^.^

  8. YOU NEEDED TO BE NERFED TAICHO. You shattered LostSoul's 40 straight victories with 3 wins?! Too over-powered =P

  9. Yeah, I agree with Yaya and Sev. Lambda is fine as she is, especially if everyone who needs to be nerfed get nerfed.
  10. Hey, how's it going? We should play more, and we were lucky to have 2 great players in Riot_Squad and LostSoul over there as well. Looks like we'll probably need hosts if we want to play, though...

  11. Oh hey, no problem about that. People have to learn to be more careful when talking about someone else's sub. Anyways, I think it'd be an awesome idea if piowah hosted a room, and you, me, and Riot_Squad joined it. I think you could learn a lot from watching the best (online) Lambda's on the West side.

  12. Very good work. I like how you can bait DP’s, and you used her CA very successfully in some areas. This was just beautiful. Based on what I saw, I think there must’ve been a bit of lag during some areas of those fights. You asked for advice and here’s what you need to work on: - This is really nit-picky of me, but I’d say to work on getting all of her C hits in for maximum damage. - You have to be able to hit-confirm whether or not it is a counter hit. - Also, your block-strings could be more tight, longer, and better. - Mash 5C faster. - The most important thing I think you need to work on are your TK’s (make them lower) and to work on IB’ing and back-dashing/IAD away. Keep it up. You’ve got a lot of promise.
  13. I'd be fine with the Calamity Sword nerf, but all I really want to see are the 2 bolded ones. That 6A buff is pretty cool too, but I think we can make do without it.
  14. :( Let me simplify. If you're fighting a good opponent like LostSoul, Kyou-Chan, Grim-Thanatos, etc., just tell me to record a few matches, and I'll do it LIVE. I'll show you the matches before I put it up, and you can choose which match(es) will be put up. XD NVM, I'll just record without your permission. If I see you doing any O_O, the video's going up. I'll try to make those videos show you at your best, but if one of those "LostSoul" moments happens again, you can bet it's going to be uploaded XD
  15. Um, it'd be just matches of VT vs AC, or VT vs CM. :( I could find a way to record your matches LIVE XD. My only issue is that I might get spectator lag, but this sounds pretty cool. The only thing is, after I've recorded it, you can ask me 1 min. later if you want it deleted or uploaded. If you ask earlier than 1 min. then everyone gets to see your perfect match ruined by our conversation lol

  16. I guess you'd have to get a cheap capture card??? Or you can ask me and CMSORA to record a lot more matches of you kicking butt. We'd all be in the chatroom, and me or Sora will stay on the results screen and you can tell us if you want it recorded. The other option would be for you to get in the top 400 of Litchi(I believe you already have?) and press triangle before a Ranked match with someone. Hopefully it will let you upload that match to the leaderboards. Maybe you can even upload some Player matches we have? I'm pretty sure that worked in CT, but it might not work in CS...

  17. XD I just use my laptop. But since my TV is on a TV stand, I need to get a stool, and put a chair on it. Then I put my laptop on. You could use a video camera, but unless you have a tripod for it, it'd look really weird. Not to mention that it'd also take much longer that way. If you have a laptop, and it has a camera in it, use it! Please tell me you have a Mac laptop QQ It'll make this so much easier.

  18. So the ground version has invincibility from frame 1? I thought I heard somewhere that it wasn't a true reversal, but I guess that person was mistaken. I was under the impression that both versions had invincibility, but closer inspection reveals otherwise.
  19. If it's invincible from the first frame, then it is a true reversal. Are you sure about that Xie? It takes 11 frames before the super flash; however, I've been hit out of it right before the super flash (a brief flash shows, but I get hit out of it and lose 50 Heat).
  20. I'd say CA's are actually safer, but it does waste 50 Heat, and could be replaced with an IB > IAD away/back-dash. Depends on who the opponent is, I guess, because then they could super flash buffer something as well.
  21. For the 6C > 236C in your 214A combos, you have to slightly delay the 236C for it to connect. Two things I noticed here and here. The 5DD won’t connect because you’re too far away, and TK > 5DD combos whiff more than they connect, in my experience. I suggest you do this combo instead (or a variation of it) I really liked this and this. Throw in a TK feint instead sometimes, and that should help you get to the next level.

  22. You did quite well in those videos. Nice use of 4B and her air-throw. The thing you should be focusing on the most right now are your combos. You could've gotten much more damage here. If it’s just 4B, use this. If it’s a counter hit 4B, use this instead. Like here, for example, you should’ve done 214D CH > 2DD > 6C > Dashing 2DD > 6C > 236C > 2DD > j.DD > dj.2DD > dj.214D, or any variation of that. This part was fun XD But if you wanted to finish him off, do a 236C. After guard crushes, always do 236C.

  23. The next time we play, I expect some melee and reaction-blocking. Just study those links and I promise you'll do fine ^.~

  24. You can do either: j.DD > j.214D~C > j.DD > dj.2DD j.DD > dj.2DD > dj.214D~C > dj.DD Can do j.DD or j.2DD, or feint during the first or second jump, but that depends on spacing.
  25. Make use of this. If I do 214D~C, you can 5D to cancel it out. Pulsr vs Xie Me vs Ragna Beginner Melee Tutorial If you can implement what's talked about in the tutorial, even if it's just the beginner stuff, you'll become much more dangerous close range. There's another section I might add to that tutorial, but as of now, I've only seen me and Riot do stuff more advanced than that tutorial.
