blood kain is a fun move to putz around with i would suggest checking the combo thread for BK combos, you can ask your above question in the "General Ragna discussion" thread, or just check the ragna 101 info thread. i use my BKs like empty jump ins. i don't do it often, but when i do it's out of the blue, and my opponent is surprised momentarily, and i take advantage (i.e. empty otoshi's with Sakura in SSFIV) HOPE THIS HELPED!

...Que?

i've said before hazama is unique, not bad, i'm not saying that. he's just very different and if you've been playing fighters for a long time, you need to think differently. i would agree that hazama has to be more defense oriented, but if you zone properly i think you'll be good.

i agree. it would take some pretty damn good yomi otherwise. or if you're just VERY predictable p.s. thanks for the match up info Beast!

like i've said before i'm totally rushdown oriented, be it in Fighters, CCGs, whatever. but when i FIRST start a fighter a i bounce around the board ALOT. with vanilla IV my first character was.. Chun Li (i laugh at my stupidity now) now i main sagat and sub Ryu/Ken. but i went through damn near the whole cast before i found them. i go with who "feels" right to me, and if it happens to be a cool bad ass character, then that's a bonus too!

ROFL.

I'm pretty sure you can link two after a Fatal Counter, don't quote me on it though...(maybe it's a guard crush?)

isn't that true with, like EVERYTHING?

love the poll! RUSH THAT S*** DOWN!

that was my first time watching some top level BB, it was SUH-WEET! I didn't realize july was Bang season i'm happy a Ragna player made it, that guy had some clutch comebacks! and a tager player is in! W00T! GO 4 THE UNDERDOGS! MAGNETS REPRESENT!

wow u guys weren't kidding u get these questions ALOT >< once again pick a character YOU feel most comfortable with, don't pay attention to tiers, or what not IT'S ALL ABOUT YOU. Saying that Hazama is a pretty "unique" character EVEN among fighters, i can give you the "Ryu" advice. Play a basic character (in BB: Ragna, in SF: Ryu) learn him for awhile until you are competent. once you know HIM it will be easier to grasp OTHER characters, because you will have a more solid foundation. Hope this helps!

whenever i see these types of arguments i always think, when these games are played well, the way they are supposed to be, you push your opponent, he pushes you back, it's tense and clutch and all that good stuff: that is where the true beauty in these games lie.

LOL, i got confused because mario from smash IS that kind of character

I KNOW, RIGHT!? WHAT'S THIS WORLD COMING TO!?
