Yea, nat 3. You can't do anything about it? I could maybe come out tomorrow if you're looking for BB.

yep I'll see. I guess she's godly in CP but only if you are a rachel savant like N-O. Also I'm kinda ok with Hakumen's drive, except like, why can he get 4k off that? I have a hard time telling if he ever uses meter to do anything, it usually seems like getting hit by normals for 15 minutes then teching into hotaru and such.

He has notifications turned off so he never sees any PSN message

yeah it is the PF minigame, it is like leading a target with a gun, you have to 'lead the lag' and if you get it you win, if you don't your opponent lives and gets out for free. Moy goes in on his router at this time. Yeah, what actually is hard. though I seem to remember even simple combos using wind being annoying.

Do you play Rachel or what you have heard from people? Most annoying part with Makoto is infinite rush and PF3? Any charges where you use visual cues suck. Like if I want to do 5d > 66 2D, I use the end of 5d as the visual cue and so it can end up subtly off. j.B>j.D is no problem because it is mechanical and don't need to react to anything that could lag. bad matchups except against the other chars I play then? FML

What are her bad match-ups. is she worse online than Makoto?

still 0 posts in the archive for rachel vs tao

tao doesn't have even matchups, she only has 6-4s 6-4s across the board, tao vs tao is a 6-4 too. I can't hear anything you say i lol'd, the tao matchup forum has literally zero posts

i got the feeling rachel will still be bad vs lambda and tao.

should I pick up Rachel. I want to mash anti-air more.

yeah and stayed terrible even after they left. :/

and yes whether the truth lies elsewhere (probably) or not I am blaming you.

damn it your conn makes Moy look like a King.

i will play oyu a little bit.

yup and Lack of UB is probably going to hurt the most vs Tager and vs Hakumen. Other stuff changed so that maybe it is reasonable in CP anyway, but in EX, tsubaki vs tager is a good 90% about how you use the unblockable. I still have to see how the command grab really affects things. 960 damage. It is kind of like Hakumen's stomp overhead.

What unblockable? I'm just kidding but it is true that it is gone in CP. It makes a big difference in the Hakumen match-up and it will hurt.

I am prioritizing charge more lately. In other words, frequently forfeiting oki because being next to you on your wake up is not in my favor. This is totally different in CP, of course.. Over there damage rewards are much better and you don't have to give up oki to get charge, and to go even further, she's got a lot of neutral nerfs. Almost a reversal of playstyle. The other bit was the gap between 5a and 5b, and 5b and 5bb, because I don't think any other character has to put up with that shit. But in short, when you play a character that punishes a DP for 6 or 7k damage like Ragna or Valkenhyne, amazingly it makes people not want to mash so much, and when you play against a character that can only punish your DP for approx 2.5k (and your DP starter can do 5k) you're going to find yourself looking at that mash option much closer.

I mean cuz the risk:reward is totally way the fuck out of whack when you are playing Tsubaki against a character like Ragna. It's like 'I don't give a shit, I'm still going to win on average because my mash out does triple the damage of your punish.'

When I get mashed on I'm like, no, that's not mashing. He's calling me out for playing Tsubaki

that'll do it

Definitely. I like to play for a good chunk of time when I play. I was surprised to see the 4, though we had some odd bits of lag here and there.

GGs Koopa. Hakumen's j.A has more untech time than my j.C ... this gameeeeeeeeeeeeee

yep.

sure.

I think we're gonna keep getting this 'it's way too early for tier lists' until BBCP2 is out. Don't be ridiculous. We're 10 months into the game. Anyone good that would factor into this list has played the game.
