  1. I can live with that. Her mid-screen throw combos weren't all that damaging in the first place.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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

  6. 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.
  7. I wonder if that's a haida-less combo. If it is, I have renewed faith.
  8. Nope. Just like the 4th loketest. Someone wrote up a character summary for her though: Seems like no-one cares about her after all..
  9. Unless you can buffer his 720 with a 6A, it doesn't matter.
  10. Shame it wasn't inaccurate. With a change like that, Hazama would be a shoe-in for at least high A-tier.
  11. Google Translate, you've done it again.. Seriously, just wait for someone to translate the changes. That shit is awful.
  12. Seen anything on there about Noel yet?
  13. 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

  14. 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.
  15. Shit. Didn't know you were on DL. lol Besides not being able to make it to Ultimate Clash and the BB delays, I'm pretty good thanks. xD How about you?

  16. 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.
  17. More like a dedicated masochist. Seriously though, I wanna see how many Noels there are left in CSII.
  18. But Makoto hasn't been playable since CT. Even the drive spammers seemed to have dropped her.
  19. I think it's either got to do with the fact that there's no new changes to Noel or that not enough people at these loketests care about her. Something is telling me it's the latter though..
  20. I don't think it's Assault Through since there's no active hitbox.. Gotta be her Counter Assault like bmore said.
  21. I think he meant you might as well try the d.214D as a blocked j.D can also get you fatal'd. :P
  22. Gotta agree with what's been said so far. It seems that for a lot of people as soon the word 'different' comes into play everyone assumes the worst. Everyone knows loketests aren't final changes and yet there are still so many theory fighters getting worked up over a character and calling them 'unplayable' when they haven't and can't even play them. Like people have mentioned before, Noel lost a lot of good tools she had in CT when she moved to CS and people adjusted just fine. So what's to say the same can't be said about her changes in CSII? If people care so much about playing a strong character, they can just switch to Bang or Litchi or whoever else is top-tier at the time and take your whining someplace else. Try using Assault Through instead if you're low enough. That usually works for me.
  23. Good work, Pizza. Let's just hope not many of these combos become redundant with the release of CSII.
  24. Not to mention how ridiculously impractical it is to pull off in a real match. xD
  25. Noel has a full kill combo. So yes, yes she can.
