Never to late to learn something new, even if you thought you completely grasped a topic already!

I must say, I'm a bit affraid of this patch. Not "OMG, I'm going to die" affraid, of course, but "This will be a lot less fun than it was before" kind of affraid... I guess that's just the scrub in me =)

How do I link 623d to 66c? I don't even get where the spot to input the move is SUPPOSED to be...

How do you 4.4K out of this? I augmented the combo to 5D 6A 6C 6B 6A 224A 2B, does 2795 damage. The same damage I get(!) if I start the combo with CH 5C. On the other hand, 5D 6A 6C 6B 6A 643246D does 2970, with CH 5C it does 2921, which is somehow less(!)

CH 5C -> 5D -> 6A -> 6C -> 6A -> 6C -> 236D or 632146D if 50 heat are aviable. Saved my ass many times against my special-happy friend today.

When I first started this game, I vowed to myself two things 1) To get better 2) Not go give it up no matter how much I might suck It is the very first "real" fighting game I have gotten into, and although it took until CS, I really love it. I have no problems with getting beaten to a bloody pulp online, though sometimes I feel embarrassed not for myself but for the person who owned be for the bloody scrub I'm sure I am. I guess I should play online more, though since I live in Germany I get mostly Zero-Bar Connections, unfortunately.

Thanks, this really helps me out

I play Noel and Tsubaki. Well, let's take a look on that frame data... OMGWTFBBQ? Well, that will take a while to get down to.. Also, the Notation Guide seems to be missing.

Oh, really? Where?

Haha, yes, that's true. I guess what's hard for me is to figure out the exact frame-moment to input the next button for combos. It would be nice of Arksys included some kind of meter in the next game's training mode to see input/invulnerability frames or the like.

This is what I'm currently trying to learn. On a related note, getting an arcade stick got me to stop button mashing Noel - unfortunately, I'm worse when not mashing buttons with her while in drive mode, since (I guess) this added some Schroedinger's Cat like uncertainty to my moves. On the other hand not mashing buttons with her opens up neat tricks like Jump-D-Cancling.
