watch Buppa and Zakiyama.

I wish Platinum was just coming out on 360 again. Such a glorious day. For the first day, every Platinum match was free.

Psh, Plat is Old school, everyone knows her- Oh....

Also, Is it just me that has trouble doing a Mizuchi? It's weird as hell with me, It's the 50/50 universal Distortion input, yet it just never comes out...Annoying.

For the 360 Control Stick, I just do 626 really fast and it always comes out. Of course, It is best to just genuinely do it. as seen above 2 posts above.

If Hazama had all of his CS2 Buffs, and everything he had in CS1 (untechable 3C ect.) Would he be CS1 Bang-Tier?

If you're like me, and have no Offline scene (North East England, People) The only advice I could give it watch Pro Players, Guys who play your character, and more or less learn how they deal with the shit other characters can do. Also, Play moar, and moar. And also play people better than you. You dont learn much playing, say a level 20 if you're level 50. (Unless he is one of those Assholes all over XBl that make new accounts to play a single character they have about 2k Game experience with)

Bait Cat Chair >9000 options after. Universal Tactic.

Psh, Zantetsu is so last version.

Top 5 posts above could only be written by Hazama players.

Why do I forget the obvious? Thanks hombre.

Matchup is more or less the same. Free for a Smart Hazama. Spam D-A, Bait, Bait some more, then a little more for the hell of it. Spamming the aforementioned D-A nets Heat Gain, Heat Gain = Jayoku = 7K = More heat = FREE Serious, though, Caseoak. Stay of his range and claim a free combo when he gets up. Use D-A a ton and build heat, and zip in on confirmed chains.

I've played 2000+ Matches and still slip up every game. Not always in a major way, but I still drop the odd combo, or screw up some silly input (623x:v:). This could be because I play a lot of characters, or maybe because im just not up there yet. Takes longer than a few thousand matches hombre.

Q: What do you guys do after 623D? I did it today and was like...Wow, I really dont know how to follow that up. I usually use it just because it looks "Brutal" in a sense, and looks fly when you use it after juggling them with the chain. Does Everyone still jump and 3/7DD?

Sounds Tasty. Thanks for the info.

For a guy who loves playing as many characters as possible. What should I learn straight away for Arakune, And I mean right away, the second I boot the game, How should I work with him? This goes for Moves/Cancelling ect. Only a few sentences would be cool, im just wondering where to begin (I dont want to be great, I just want to play him "Efficiently")

I'm no Pro, But Here is what I do/Did. 1) Pick a Main - You should be interested in this character, you should want to learn them, every detail of them. Then head over to that Characters Section. 2) Challenge Mode - Try your best to finish it. You get some satisfaction afterwards, and you also learn what moves do what, and what to do in any given situation. 3) Character Forums - Introduce yourself, find Combo's, ask and answer questions, all whilst perfecting your Tsubaki. 4) Watch JP Players - Watch what they do, and see how you can improve. For my Bang, I watch Dora, for Hazama, Buppa, JP Pro Players are invaluable for you. 5) Blockstrings/Pressure/AA - Learn fine, intricate details, Frame Data and whatever. 6) Have Fun - It's just a game, have fun and enjoy yourself. Also, Playing Dustloop users is great, I've played a few and it's a good laugh, as well as an awesome experience. (List in no particular order...)

Jayoku is still Hazama's Biggest threat. Any herpderp can get 6-7k from a Jayoku. And for slightly "Better" players. They can gain another 50 heat from the Combo's After Jayoku. Which usually leads to Mizuchi at the end of the Jayoku follow-up, If they guy knows his shit. Other than a Vital RC, I see no other use for that 50 heat as Hazama. Also, He gains heat incredibly quickly. So avoid 214-B like the plague. I dont play Noel, but I think that info is pretty universal. Plus, any help is good help I guess.

Bit of an exaggeration.

I'm in the same boat as the OP, And Info from A.X.I.S and Tempest Dahlia seems Legit. Off to try that in training mode, Sounds worthwhile.

That Hazama CS2 Combo Movie was ace. Really shows how much Potential Hazama has. Also, Armoured Core For Answer/DMC3/Bayonetta OST's = Bro with taste.

Troll Mode was On Tonight. Hazama vs Ragna Best Finish I've gotten. DD (Blocked) > CH j.214B > RC > IAD > j.B+C > j.214B: 2285 Damage Still smiling.

Spectates a game where Litchi's Astral went through Tager's 360 and whiffed, right into a 720. Hazama on the other hand, I've seen some Wacky whiffs on Tager with it.

I think you just have to outskill Jin in this Matchup. It's so god damn annoying. His 5D constantly catches me out. I hate Jin, I find myself switching to Hazama if someone picks him, It just feels like such a Bullshit matchup for Bang. 6-4 Jin Easily. I think Bang needed his 5A in CS2. I genuinely dont have a strategy in this Matchup other than "Corner > Rape > Pray for a reset"

First 214-C into Astral today. Guy was shit, deserved it.
