That's just wrong Carl is going to be the next dr. strange

Hanging out in Harvard square at a restaurant on a Saturday is Hell

yes and Im bringing my xbox set up even if you bring those damn converters because they have a tendency to create input lag

I'm sorry but you can't agree with me until you accept my Friend request

When fighting Jin in the Air, the only move you should be using is J.A. That's it. As for Hazama his neutral game is much better than Carl's, you are definitely going to need ADA in order to actually get in. 4D, and 8D are probably the best moves to use in this matchup because of how active they are. Brio is also an important tool, but do not spam it because ADA meter is very important in this match up. Once ADA is dead, Carl will have to face Hazama alone, and that can be tricky. Once the opponent sees that you are using ADA to cover you, they are going to run away until they have some hit confirm into Jakoyu or whatever that kick is. When they get a life lead they are going to run away and the match is going to turn into a game of cat and mouse, and it is going to be very difficult to catch Hazama. IAD Alle cans can be beat out by his 2C anti- air, which is a disappointment. DO NOT TRY TO BEAT OUT HAZAMA IN NEUTRAL STATE. HIS 2A CAN BEAT OUT A LOT OF THINGS AND LEAD HIM TO A FREE COMBO. I highly suggest using ADA to get the first hit on him because it leaves you with less worries. It is also incorrect to say that Hazama is safe on a blocked Jakoyu, this is actually one of the best times to punish.(You didn't say this, I know) When you are in a C-O-N state, you basically won the match since ADA can now help you with UB setups and other mix up games. Do not be surprised if a Hazama Bursts as soon as they get into that position. As for the match up, I do not think it is right to say it is in either one's favor since it depends on the momentum of the match. Either player can get a complete advantage over the other (C-O-N with Carl and Life lead with Hazama) therefore I disagree with whoever told you that the match is in Carl's favor, and I am certain that the person hasn't played many Carl players so they lost to every mix up they encountered. This is not a fun matchup at all, and it is actually VERY difficult in score attack mode with Carl as well.

Oh volante loops are so sexy X_X!!!! Anybody know if it's possible to do 3 like in CS1, i can only do 2 As for the Jin match up, you have to hide behind nirvana and follow Jin, untill they come to you. Don't go to the corner without ADA nearby. The match up is much much easier when ADA is literally by your side, since she can block most of his attacks, and you can easily punish. If you end up being corner carried, immediately call ADA and they will definitely back off. If my damn dazzle card didn't have such crap quality, I would post vids of this match up for you guys

^you're not the only one who is being blocked from helping the Carl sections I was trying to organize some vids for the video threads, but this FASFA thing is making it impossible for me to play on anything now D: right now, everybody is either working or being forced to do stuff they don't want to do #realworldproblems

Eh, Saturday is Ranbats, I like those D: Plus they open at 4:30 on Saturday and nobody really comes until 7 lol. Plus I get too tired to stay for breakfast club. I If you're going to meet on Saturday, go at 5PM I really want to go on friday though since I can have more casual time before the seriousness begins ( I hate Marvel, and I haven't touched Street fighter in months) Btw, we forgot about tatsunoko vs capcom. I sold my wii, so yeah...... <_< Dustloop: Dread Handle: Dread/Sinder Name:Kei Games: GG[Zappa, Testament], BB[Carl, Rachel, Valk, Arakune], KOF13[benimaru, Elisabeth, Vice], MB[?], T6[no], UMvC3[MODOK Dr strange] Tatsunoko vs capcom[Doronjo, morrigan] Note:

They have a KOF xiii scene, i'm not sure about BB Here is the low down on the BOSTON scene There are 2 places in Boston MA (1 technically not Boston but close enough) in case anybody is interested in Anime casuals Brain Box - 383 Centre Street (JP area is what us Bostonians call "jamaica plain" Also, there is UGS (Ultimate gaming spot) in Dedham MA, which is borderline Hyde park/ West Roxbury BOTH areas do not have BB or GG setups, so we would have to bring our own. The Anime Fighting Game community I went to Brain box yesterday for casuals, and they had no BB set-up, so I talked with Amar and I told him that I would bring my 360 in with the CS2 update, since using CS1 Carl was awkward. If anybody plays BB on xbox, I will try to go there on Fridays and Maybe the weekends. As for the community itself, I was thinking about donating a BB extend to either site, or maybe both. Maybe if we all chipped in (5 dollars would do) we could buy at least 2 copies of the game. This would be the first step into showing how serious the community is about reviving this genre in the Boston Area. Are you guys really ready? I don't know, but I'm glad I met some people yesterday who were at least interested in playing/learning Blazblue, that being said why don't we make it appeal to them more. Granabx and Troll-bad guy thank you for your support. It's good to see some people in the community in Boston getting together. As I said before, I would have no problem bringing my 360 down to brain box, and I might even ask Gill (Dedham site leader) if I can do the same at his spot. This is a strong step forward for the Northeast Coast I'm Sinder btw. My real name is Kevin and my Local tag is Dread. Hope to see you guys soon for BB matches Massachusetts low down There are a lot of reasons why I think the Boston Area should have its own thread. One being the fact that the other local meet ups in the Mass Area are too spread out (Fall river, GU,) Plus Boston is the heart of Massachusetts, it deserves its own thread, and there are a lot of players in the Boston area who would probably prefer to play here, since they don't want to travel so far (its perfectly fine, and yes we all know true hard core fans would travel MA to play, but let's face it there needs to be a stronger community first) Ok I'm done lol BB/GG/Skull girls need a home

Well, they shouldn't be mashing in the first place, it's got nothing to do with respect. However you are right, if your Carl is mixing up your opponent on a consistent basis, you shouldn't worry about being mashed out of vivace, they won't really be respectful until you give them a good beatdown first, in other words, make them look free and this made me lol, I might even make it my quote Truth be told, this is basically what everybody online does, so if you're going for any trophies or Achievements then you NEED to calculate this.

the tenth poster in this thread

And for some reason people in ranked keep jumping and don't really fight lol player matches are much better since you don't fight in lag constantly, and you can take out your salt and pour it all over the room

I'm so happy prospectus= research paper because DAMN THAT WAS RIDICULOUS

I need to join an Akira Lobby, fight these top players and see if i get similar results Don't worry Akira you're still loved by all of us , but I don't agree with your perspective on IAD Allecan i'm going to agree with toasty and rist on this one random question: does zoog still play online?

You guys are realizing this now? Its simple things like this that can kill an American player here too. IAD allecan is one of the best mix-up tools carls has, so I can't really say that the japanese are losing to Derp. Yes it is simple, but the opponent would have to react quickly to it, and yes I know that the japanese have superior reaction skills Plus, interrupting a block string for an allecan is pretty difficult to see predict, especially with all Dem meter gains I know what you guys are saying, buy you have to give the japs a benefit of the doubt; Caruru is the mix up master, his simple tactics appear to e gdlk. also in America, people think it's ok to mash low jabs like all Carl players will vivace out of everything ... IAD makes them free(simply put) Simple tactics from a Carl have a great reward, whether it be IAD Allecan, dash-grettos, and naked 4Ds, so I'm going to defend these

Well Relius it looks like you're off my Extend list I'm actually happy about this, since I want to learn Pacman .........................

Wait, really?

Carl Vs Relius (This is for people who want to here the voices in english) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMDbii4wm9Q Carl's Challenge Combos in CSEX http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2m2mzD-3JA&feature=related More CSEX Vids *from jourdal* http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOong3DxTiM <---- 0:26 ryuusei ( Carl ) VS Yoshiki (Lambda) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cp1sqzoXW9Q&feature=related<--- 12:10 ( noel ) VS ryuusei ( carl)

I was just on it. Everybody is playing extend

^ NO WAY!!!!!!!!! I had the same goal unfortunately I ended up dropping japanese, but I have the rosetta stone for it (even though its not really helping, or maybe I'm using it wrong) and college is in September

it did get nerfed its harder to beat out random air attacks, like ragnas jc or any diagonal attacks

They took off 5C stagger on counter hit O: ??! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! aw well, it was a risky poke anyway :/

Tao is great, however she is not top tier imo. Valk is top tier, but he always was because of his crazy damage output and the fact that he was a butler made him get a high level of respect. I don't care about ragna anymore, he isn't as impressive as he was to me when I first started playing blazblue and he doesn't seem different in EX I think all the "fighting game fans" (aka casuals) are not leaving the blazblue scene in America as quick as you may think, but to be honest they(blazblue developers) aren't really trying that hard to get a new audience or keep them there (only 1 new character... lmao) so I can see why nobody wants to play this anymore. Even i'm thinking about leaving the blazblue scene, there just isn't anything left in this game anymore, tourneys are boring as hell, and I CS extend didn't really extend much. Put in another person's words, it's an extension of an extension that was already an extension... However I do have to stay on XBL since I am one of the 20 carls that still exist Anyway to get back on track with carl, the tao- carl matchup isn't as ridiculous as it was in CS2 (get hit with the loop once... bye Carl) I'm more interested in the Noel and litchi matchups though, since they can't get free rounds anymore and Ada can chase Litchi while I spam Brio, and not worry about losing her On another not what else can be said here? Most of Carl's CS2 strategies(loop) have been discussed so much, nobody is asking questions about Carl... what's going on? I made a crazy combo earlier today and it was with 2 volantes and 1 8Ds and 2 brio, it looked beautiful. It also did some decent damage (4000) but I was so amazed with myself that I didn't even remember the notation for it D: right now i'm just making up some wasteful combos lol ok i'm done....... i'll see you guys in extend

WHOA! Zong is NEVER on BB and i was told he left carl for good I haven't talked to him to confirm though matter of fact i haven't played anybody in the Cals because my new connection isn't strong enough edit: *sigh* I've been bored with fighters recently so I think Im going to play the SMT series since SOO many people praise it. I played strange journey and I thought it was just a diatribe to the players on how bad humanity is. Any suggestions on other games? *I know this has nothing to do with Carl but the CS2 thread is going into the archives soon anyway*
