Ripper (Hazama) vs taxin1491 (Lambda) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEH66uqY-Sc&feature=youtu.be (The Lambda player is fighting an acquaintance of his that plays Hazama, and he commentates the match) -------- Akihabara Leisureland Matches Hakumen vs Lambda https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3OCgVZugcI&feature=youtu.be ------- Lambda Fatal combos http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm25096749 (Idk if it's on youtube yet but this is the nico url)

Well I totally agree with you SWD on the point that Lambda's midscreen standard confirms are looking kind of weak. (Well, Lambda can score more damage than what was listed above if she uses her gravity but it's still not super gdlk when compared with other characters.) It might just be wishful thinking on my part though but I just think that there's something more that we're not seeing from the current players atm, like her aerial confirms or what exactly her gravity seed/wheel are capable of (all of which have proven to be reliable high-damaging tools in the past but may not necessarily be good in CP2.0). But yeah I'm mainly just writing this because even if she's bad I'm still gonna main her lol but I'm just an impatient noob and want to test her out in the lab right now since there are a bunch of moves that aren't really being used, imo.

Yeah I haven't seen it enough to really make a fair judgment on how useful it is. Most of the Lambda players in the videos that are currently available aren't super amazing either so it's kind of hard to tell the full potential of moves like her wheel. If I were to guess, I'd like to think that the wheel could be used for zoning of for tweaking certain combos where other wheels wouldn't work, etc. But yeah, her wheel and her gravity seed aren't used much if at all so it's hard to answer both of those questions. I really want CP2.0 so I can test these things out in the lab... :/ Edit: What I guess I really want to say here is that I think that Lambda can do so much more than what we're seeing of her now. I want to try things out so badly lol. I'm not seeing it in videos of her but I think Lambda has the hidden potential to be the character with the some of the best corner carry in the game (like from corner to corner being easy), along with some other various strengths. That's just me guessing, though. I haven't really seen how most of her moves perform or are used or if they're even viable at all. Only time will tell, I guess.

..I'd be down for some XBL games too. Don't have CP and nobody is on CSE XBL but maybe the PC version will finally bring in some people to play with :u

Tachikawa Singles Heeta (Mu) vs Aaso (Lambda) http://youtu.be/kdZKX1nfO5o?t=7m41s Tachikawa Singles Ryuusei (Carl) vs Aaso (Lambda) http://youtu.be/SraGgzveE1g?t=12m39s Tachikawa Singles Oosaka (Litchi) vs Aaso (Lambda) http://youtu.be/SraGgzveE1g?t=16m Edit: They refer to Aaso at the end of the Litchi match as Yoshiki so Aaso is probably just Yoshiki.

Looks like her astral is the same as Nu's. http://youtu.be/kdZKX1nfO5o?t=10m7s

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5CjELKGKl0&list=UUyV9c57z3v5Ot5d4PklDxeA This is a combo video for Lambda that was uploaded by Jourdal. I wonder if the fact that they don't use Lambda's wheel in corner combos anymore means that it's not optical? It looks like it's harder to land or at least the placement is different or whatever. Her damage and corner carry overall looks really nice though. I'm digging the Stuff->6C->236A->236C combos lol so flashy.

Well here's a video that demonstrates what Lambda's overdrive looks like. That OD->Calamity Sword is a pretty interesting fullscreen punish. http://youtu.be/GlD_pRG49Kw?t=11m13s

Yeah at first I was totally skeptical about how they would make the two characters different but they play totally differently. I watched some video and Nu players would use their gravity as a zoning tool while the Lambda players would use their gravity seed to FC punish or whatever. I don't think that one is necessarily better than the other but just that their functions are completely different. Nu's ranged game seems to be stronger because of her swords having lots of versatility, the ability to cancel her moves with more fast special moves, gravity seed being on a lower cooldown and the differences in the parser moves, but then again Lambda has moves like Exiga Nail and Parser Zwei and stuff to be used for something different, like mid screen mixup or going in on someone. But yeah from what I've seen Nu is kind of going back to her CT roots a little bit while Lambda kind of goes along the CS route in terms of playstyle. It'll be really interesting to see where they go from here. Not really sure if we can say which one is better or whatever yet, but I think it's safe to say that their functions are way different and their playstyles are kind of drawn from two separate sources.

I haven't played BB since CSE but after watching those videos and reviewing the new gatlings and things that work in the first post, I must say that I'm really excited for this character. It's like all of the things that I wanted to be able to combo with in CSE actually work now in CP 2.0. 6C launch into 236D, the CH 3C (all hits)-> Spikes, it's all so awesome. Plus Cavalier wallbounces midscreen again so it looks like her midscreen combo game is going to be really awesome. By the way, does her 3C still gatling into gravity seed? I don't recall seeing it in the videos but if it does work then her corner carry is going to be really nasty what with the other gatlings mentioned above.

Wow combos with Exiga Nail look super hype. I'll bet that Exiga Nail along with her wheel and Cavalier will make for some really nasty corner combos and oki and such haha.

Anyone want to play sometime today?

If you land a close range hit you can almost always confirm it into sickle oki (236D) and force them to block incoming mixup. Let's say for example you hit an opponent with a 2B, you can confirm it into stuff like: 2B->6B->2C->5C->3C->(Knock them down)->236D. The 3C will knock them over and then they wake up into a 236D, being forced to block. This is Lambda's safest way to ensure pressure on an opponent, and gives you a free mixup. If you're asking about how to initiate into close range and force someone into this type of situation, then it's a bit harder to explain. However, I can say that for the most part, Lambda's rushdown mixup is still fairly strong and can be applied in a similar fashion when compared with other characters.

I should be on later today.

Maybe later tonight/sometime tomorrow if you still want to play around then.

lol backdash op

Yeah Suku whenever you get the chance, I'd like to do a set with you too :3

lol this has happened to me so many times. Stomp people, lose once and the one match I lose gets uploaded to youtube.

Probably the same place Tager falls from would be my guess.

GGs to Shiori, EXE Kobato, Spartan and Aldreat yesterday. Sorry my net crashed lol

Enough flops to fry a legion of pancakes. GGs to everyone I've played in the past few weeks, sorry I haven't posted here but I've had computer problems.

Oh can I get in on this?
