I would like to see what you could come up with for Naoto. Preferably something that references her new look in the LN.

Hazama will never suck. People were shitting their pants about Arakune and then they found another 100% curse combo, and they'll probably find a high damage curse combo soon. As long as Hazama has good meter-gain, mix-up, and MOTHERFUCKING CHAINS he'll be strong.

How so? Pretty much every character has at least one of the following to make up for air dashes: Command dash Teleport Hook/pull move Full-screen normals Full-screen zoning/spacing tools. and the airdash is more of a forward double-jump if you ask me. Doesn't seem to important to do cross-up setups or to get in on someone. Oh it'll flop here alright, if they even decide to port it, which is highly doubtful. It'll have a solid following in Japan, though.

Well her top isn't really torn at all. But you didn't notice that because you were looking at her legs/ass as you should.

Linne's "dragon" is no dragon at all. It's a mag. Do you even play PSO2?

Great, two console cab tournaments on the same day. Ryan, for the last time, when are you going to announce Nesica for America?

You should talk to Tager mains. Those fuckers have REAL dedication.

Do I need to bring up this post again?

Makoto footage makes her look like she got her old combos back. Plat j.D with cat hammer doesn't float/halt air momentum anymore. Mami circular corner-sticks which is sick, 6B corner-bounces, Dramatic Sammy is RC'able but almost looks like you can combo after it without RC. j.C > 22C > 6A is possible which means easier combos. I'm loving this game more every second I see it.

Yo damn, backthrow wallbounces now. Jakou slide, while it ruins midscreen combo opportunities, looks sexy as hell. Does anyone else notice that 5C > j.C x5 > 5C/2C doesn't look like it works anymore?

Woah woah woah, hold the phone, Hakumen can 2B > 2A > 3C? He couldn't do that before, right? Also, Tager j.D looks like it corner bounces based off the Tager v Amane video.

I am not a cricket, I am a wander bug.

There are quite a few posts on Haz jbbs listing changes, just none of us really care enough or aren't fluent enough to translate. The major things are that TK loop (allegedly) no longer works and that 5B and 5C aren't jump-cancellable on block. I also recall some posters saying that 2C feels 'slower.'

You guys..... let's not turn this into netplay general, 'K? More speculation, more character/system change discussion, and, above all else, more FABULOUSNESS. EDIT: also, to any Hazbros in here, what do you guys think of 2C being supposedly slower? Also 5B and 5C aren't jump-cancellable on block anymore

Where did boSeuMorT go?!?!?!

I notice nothing "ugly" about jakou unless you're referring to the way the camera treats the animation... ODC looks fucking sick, though.

Watch some part of that actually be true. I will laugh my ass off.

Calling it now, the stance dash can pass through characters and is throw+hit invulnerable for x number of frames

Well, yeah, CP is to BlazBlue as XX was to Guilty Gear. It only seems natural. Could this have the success of the XX part of the Guilty Gear series? I sure as hell hope so.

Wow that dash looks so fucking sick. I wonder if something like *stuff* > 3C > 214D~66~D > 2A > *resume pressure* is safe. That, and if stuff like Backthrow > 214D~66~C combos or not (midscreen). I kind of wanted to see his overdrive though

Why do people want to play Naoto? I want to play Naoto even though she's bad ;_;

So I'm hearing we have XFC's in BlazBlue now? Could this mean (more) people are going to play the game?

Could someone translate the Amane bbs thread post 73? My Japanese is pretty weak, so the only things I've gotten out of it are: 236D followups A, B, and C correspond to close, middle, and far drills (which are apparently akin to little Eddie drills). 6A is one of his anti-airs His 5A whiffs on crouchers link: http://jbbs.livedoor.jp/bbs/read.cgi/game/45148/1344171182/73
