Asakura

After looking over the latest changes and the color coded stuff, it seems like Arakune is still going to be a hell of a character. Non of his nerfs seem all that bad.

I would love to be that good, holy crap

Let's just asterisk the table. BB:CS Match-Up Chart/Tier list* * = for America

What the Smash community does with tiers works and it reflects tournament play and play at the highest level. That's the only time a tier list really even comes into play anyway. Basing it off tournament data is far from a bad thing.

Probably after Valk.

Wow...Souji is too good.

This whole post is probably one of the best "how to pick a main" posts I've seen for any fighting game. Bravo.

Yeah, pretty much how I feel about it...

Yeah, I just realized that. I must have missed the "k" when I typed "ku". Whoops! You'd think after 2 years of Japanese I'd notice something like that.

It is pretty cool going through the video thread and seeing these videos of Souji. He is an incredible Arakune.

Yeah, I figured it was either was BO said or a matter of hitting j.C earlier. I haven't really gotten a chance to try it out today but soon enough I will.

I'll give that a try, the command list it just says "D" but I'll give it a shot. Thanks.

I apologize for this likely being a REALLY obvious question, but I'm having issues with Hazama's 6th mission in challenge mode. I can land 5B, 3C, 214D, dash, 5C, 2C, 4D, 5D but when I do that 5D I go too high to land the j.Cx5. Is this just some timing issue I'm having? I'm assume I either need to do that 5D earlier or later to make sure they're higher in the air or something.

After finally get back into the game from a break of no fighters and then playing Super Street Fighter 4 exclusively for the past few weeks, I'm basically co-maining Arakune and Hazama. SSF4 really helped my execution a lot. I couldn't get through Arakune or Hazama's 3rd challenge and now I'm on both of their 6th challenge. From doing those I've got a lot of combo's memorized now. Pretty solid.

I'd rather see an GGX3 to be totally honest. Or some new, worthy successor to Accent Core. If the best we can get is Accent Core then I'd love to see it on the 360 because I haven't played a GG since GGXX on the PS2 back when I didn't have a stick.

I liked Hakumen and Arakune's designs in CT, so I picked them and will be using them again in CS. I'll probably be picking up Hazama too based on design.

It'll be very interesting to see where everyone falls with the balance patch. I wouldn't expect too much to change around but there could be some neat little changes that spice things up.

Holy crap, I've never been so motivated to learn to play better in my life.
