Is anyone else having issues air dashing after hit the ball when going for K oki? I don't know if it's just me or if something changed (it's probably the former), but it's really frustrating to drop oki shenanigans because of it, so I definitely want to fix this problem ASAP.

So... N-O is ditching Rachel? WE'VE LOST OUR LEADER!!!! T-T On that topic, how many of us are sticking to her (as your main [not that I personally have any subs]) in CP2? I know I am, but I feel like our community is about to be downsized again.

Thannks, DaiAndOh. To training mode!

So I've finally broken down and I've decided on getting Xrd. I wasn't initially going to get it since my main (Testament) was taken out, but I like GG an awful lot. Through recommendations and just generally liking the character and his playstyle, I've decided on Venom. Is it worth it to practice him now in +R or has too much changed?

RACHEL!!! T-T Looks like we're back to having the struggle.

Can someone give a rundown of the holes (if any) in his pressure strings?

I have a team! Myself, Dark Ranger, and badlime.

I only have the JP version and I'm having a terrible time trying to find matches, so for those who have it, feel free to add me.

What do we even do about this matchup? I think I've won against all of one Minazuki player thus far. No good way to AA his teleports which are just a big "FU" to zoning in the first place, his range screws with us, and his pressure seems relatively safe. Is this a situation where we have to RTSD?

GGs to JoshuaVv, abadlime, and Frost Monarch.

(Midscreen, Fatal) 1/2/3D > 5AA > 5B > 5C > 2C > 214B > 2C > 5C > 214A+B > 2C > 5C > 214A - 4129/8 If you have 75 meter on hand (or 50 after the 8 SP gain), you can tack on 236236D after 214A for 5082 damage total.

GGs to all the people I've fought recently, especially Colpevole (I hope I have the name right) since he gave me some much needed Chie matchup experience.

Anyone else getting the "her buttons beat our buttons" vibe from her? It feels like unless we have her fullscreen or close to it she gives us major issues.

After fighting this matchup quite a bit in the last few days, I have some (early) pointers for anyone who may be struggling. First thing's first, she definitely outzones us from 3/4 to full screen away. If she has you in this position, I would recommend throwing fans in between arrows to hit her Persona when she goes for Persona attacks. Other than that, find openings to get your fire levels up and block patiently until she decides to move in. You can also use 3D, but I would recommend only using this sparingly since her arrows are pretty quick and will end up taking a card away if you're not really careful with it. If the player remains comfortable sticking at fullscreen and giving you a bunch of blue chip damage, use Dia to bait her into coming to you. When she gets to be about midscreen, stop using Dia and block if necessary. Midscreen is where you want to play this matchup. At midscreen, Yukiko seems to outzone her. Between B Agi, 6B fans, and Persona normals, Yukari has a hard time dealing. I wouldn't recommend holding Agi very much outside of oki since she's quite mobile. If she tries to run away, chase her with fans, Maragi, and 4/5/6D. Be ever more careful than you already should be playing if she has 50 meter on hand and is in Awakening. Magarula is fast and will hurt you for doing anything with long startup/recovery. I don't know if there's a good way around this move, unfortunately. Just block the mixup as best you can. That's about all I have for now. Hope it helps.

I've seen it in videos, but I'm off on the timing for throwing two fans in the air. How does one go about performing this?

Rachel is pretty good for a more defensive zoning style (until she gets going, at the least). She's quite challenging as well, although she isn't a charge character.

Anyone else getting wrecked by Orie? I could really use some tips about fighting against her.

For this, can you go into it with 2B > 2CC?

Oh crap, got the dates for the days of the week mixed up lol. Ah well, I really can't do it tonight either as I have no idea if/when I'll be able to use the tv my games are hooked up to (the other tvs are bad for gaming lol), so my apologies once again.

Sorry, I have to back out. Tonight isn't a good night for me.

I do plan on getting this game, but I'm in a bit of a bind. I have a thing about not using evil characters, but my top two choices (Hilda and Byakuya) seem to be so. I use Testament, Rachel, Yukiko, and Dorothy, so I really enjoy zoning with an emphasis on traps, oki, and setups. Is there another choice I have or is this a case where I'd have to suck it up or not play the game at all?

Sounds fun. PSN: Venussail91 Time Zone: EST (New York)

Dorothy overall because she's my main but in terms of look and personality I have to go with Petra.

Could anyone give me a rundown on what to do in the Kamui matchup? I play it a lot, yet I'm still lost.
