Yeah, Tsubaki being a rushdown character with bad normals just makes me laugh. xD Still, loketests aren't over yet so there's still a chance that'll they'll change that before it comes out. Noel looks to be heading back into mid-tier too, so I hope I can see more of her around. I'm hoping more Japanese players start using her too now that R-1 has dropped her to tier whore Bang (even though I can't blame her seeing how bad CS1 Noel was). The one thing that's bugging me the most about this patch though is how we're gonna get it; it's a pretty huge re-haul of the game so I'm starting to worry whether it's gonna be a free download or not. If I have to pay for another disk 6 days after CS is released here I'm gonna be pissed lol.

So pretty much the same thing as what her 6C(2) already does, but they can't tech in the air anymore. With the right distance, 5A > 6A > 6C(2) > 66C > Drive Juggle might work and the second hit of 6C prorates positively if I remember correctly. Edit: Looks like it's been confirmed to be wall bounce and not stick. Still, this change opens up a lot of new options for Noel.
-
Does the second hit of Noel's 6C prorate positively?
-
I highly doubt that's gonna do 4.2k damage. But if it does..
-
Oh shi- I forgot about that. It's for the best, man.. Q.Q
-
Nah, I'm definitely gonna prepare myself for the worst anyway. I bet you the one change Arc make to Noel is getting rid of that combo. I kind of want them to change that about her anyway. I prefer the challenge and the pride in repping a low tier character. Besides, Noel is getting some buffs(!) to her normals and her drive, which is a lot better to me than just some zero effort, stupid damage combo. I'm getting a bit tired of just looking at all these changes now though. I just wanna play it already! Just two more weeks for CS and LTG and three for CSII. /hype
-
Alright, thanks for that Zephyr. I'm hoping that the second translation is the correct one though. No damage off of throws mid-screen or in the corner doesn't sound that great to me.
-
I can live with that. Her mid-screen throw combos weren't all that damaging in the first place.
-
You mean like a good opponent would duck and not get hit by it? If so, then that doesn't work. The delay is just small enough so that the opponent can tech after you cancel the grab, but not long enough so that they can do anything. I've done it quite a few times before to reset my combos.
-
B+C > slight delay > 214A > 2B > 6C > j.D > stuff might work if they tech in between that delay. Her command grab doesn't prorate as much so that could work and if they don't tech inbetween the gap and the command grab blue beats, we could just go into your combo instead. Either way, more Noel nerfs. Maybe Mori has a thing for her.
-
I'm guessing cancelling her throw into Muzzle Flitter (214A) either prorates a lot like you said or just doesn't work for some reason. I doubt it's the latter though.
-
Honestly, some of the changes Arc are making have really confused me. Nerfing the already incredibly low-tier? Seriously. I hope people can find some good replacement combos for Tsubaki. I won't feel proud of myself when I beat you otherwise lol. I'm not too bothered about the others either, to be honest. I was kinda hoping Litchi and Bang would get toned down a bit and Arakune's 8k combo is still pretty scary, but meh. This has made my day though: "Noel: Mashing midscreen into 4200 damage. Oh boy." I'm so much more hyped to play this than I was before now. :P
-
If that's the case, maybe it's a good thing they haven't touched her since the 3rd loketest. Slightly better drive + normals as well as adequate replacements for existing combos doesn't sound like too bad of a deal.
-
I wonder if that's a haida-less combo. If it is, I have renewed faith.
-
Nope. Just like the 4th loketest. Someone wrote up a character summary for her though: Seems like no-one cares about her after all..
-
Unless you can buffer his 720 with a 6A, it doesn't matter.
-
Shame it wasn't inaccurate. With a change like that, Hazama would be a shoe-in for at least high A-tier.
-
Google Translate, you've done it again.. Seriously, just wait for someone to translate the changes. That shit is awful.
-
Seen anything on there about Noel yet?
-
Haha. True that. xD And yeah man, it should be good. I look forward to it. I've been checking out a lot more of CS:I Noel's combos/tactics so it should be more fun than last time lol. I know what you mean about CS:II though; there's been no loketest info on Noel since the 3rd one. Still, Tsubaki isn't looking too hot right now either. Let's just keep an open mind and pray our characters aren't too bad come Dec. 9th. xD
-
It's been said countless times before, but I'll say it again: There is absolutely no point in bitching and theory fighting about a game that not only have you not had a chance to play, but isn't even a final product yet. That's like assuming you're not going to like a half-finished painting because the artist used a colour you didn't like. CSII is being released in less than a months time. Just relax and wait until you have it in your hands before you start ranting again.
-
Yup. There hasn't been any changes to her since the 3rd test apparently. Take that how you will. And lol at Makoto getting nerfed to hell before I could even try her.
-
More like a dedicated masochist. Seriously though, I wanna see how many Noels there are left in CSII.
-
But Makoto hasn't been playable since CT. Even the drive spammers seemed to have dropped her.
