...Great question! I actually pretty hype that now thread respondents can be engaged in thought-provoking discussion! Ok, so let's look at some of the attributes for two: Kou -Fast ex fireball, 2hits, launches on hit (this makes for "interesting" full screen confirms if stocked with an extra level) -Tatsus dont launch and have -f on them (ex tatsu though is +1 which could set up some RPS action) -Super Fireball is great utility super and is easily confirmable/comboable (e.g. 2D> fireball > confirm hit and cancel to super fireball), also great when coupled with 5C in footsies -Multi-hit shoryu can be a bit tricky to parry, wakeup game and anti-airs are a teeny bit stronger with this? (I guess) Because of Kou's stronger ex fireball, I feel she can play more effectively as a zoning character but in this respect she also seems as if she'd be very meter-dependent. When stocked w/ a level, i think she can get more out of a footsie game than Crow could due to having tools like 5C>super fireball cancel. Reinforce this super and she'll be stacking on heaps of damage. Her in-game and mixups seem pretty much the same as Crow's (save Crow's ex fireball oki on some downs) Crow -Ex fireball travels much slower but allows crow to chase behind it and press parry attempts against it (however, it DOESNT TRAVEL FULL STAGE [for some dumb reason]) -LK tatsu launches and leads to nasty resets (e.g. lk tatsu > sj9 LP > walk under), only hits standing opponents though, hard to setup overall so you wont see it often -His frames are better than Kou's (no idea why) Crow http://wikiwiki.jp/yatagarasufg/?%A5%AF%A5%ED%A5%A6%A1%CACROW%A1%CB VS Kou http://wikiwiki.jp/yatagarasufg/?%B2%D0%C8%B4%B4%B7%B9%D4%A1%CAKOU%A1%CB -Super uppercut has more damage potential due to launcher (options to reset available too??) -Non-ex shoryu is one hit, makes his wakeup options easy to OS against because of this Crow's fireball game is probably a bit weaker due to slow traveling, single-hit properties on the ex fireball. BUT I feel the fireball/zoning game isn't really that effective overall due to the incorporation of parries in this game. The slow traveling speed of Crow's fireball does however allow him to press the opponent and try to thwart any attempts to parry the fireball and followup after a successful parry (i.e. have Crow follow up immediately and mixup attack levels). As you mentioned, Crow's mixup potential seems far more superior due to the launcher on LK/EX tatsu with the option to air reset and go for mixups after. In a game with stun, resets can be pretty intimidating. Crow may not be able to initiate a mid-ranged or zoning game as effectively as Kou but when he does manage to get in (has a great dash, parries create openings, ex fireball to transition to offense), the payout seems far greater in his favor. I'm still experimenting with Kou and this ranged-game though and there's a possibility my opinions about her may change completely within the next few mths. The game is also still pretty "fresh" and not a lot of matchup experience and theories are being put to test due to the minute exposure at the moment but I'm sure the overall view of Kou, as well as the rest of the cast, will evolve over time. Here's my current tier-list just for fun: S Jet A Hanzo Shimo A- Crow Jyuzu Kou B+ Chadha Hina Again, great questions. Hope more viewers will add to this discussion.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=SHrDqfKoXEo#t=18s the one in this vid is pretty nuts. checked it out already and works on all characters (starting from ex shoulder launcher). can sub the last super juggle hit for 5C > 214C reset shenanigans. this character is pretty damn fun! thanks for the bnbs to get me started.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=qGkxRKNTgA4 HINA bnb's and minor strategy. covers combo options for a variety of situations as well: UOH, Bougetsuzan (412369p), Anti-Airs, BLCH hits, etc. http://wikiwiki.jp/yatagarasufg/?FrontPage JP Yata wiki with frame data and all that jazz. I'm pretty excited.

This is probably a retarded question but did you happen to let the health fully restore before executing the combo again. I know this game has damage protection (or guts or whatever it may be called) and that would certainly effect your numbers. Another thing that may effect your damage output is the super you have "reinforced". This increases power/damage for selected super art. If neither of these are the case then please feel free to ignore this moron.

the quote below should help... Game is pretty fun. I'm usually hanging out in the public lobbies around 10pm EST. Netplay is fairly decent, I recommend anyone who's enthusiastic about learning the game to give it a try. Also, there's a thread on SRK that gets a bit of activity. Kind of curious to see what other FG forums out there have dedicated threads for yatagarasu.

Yup

...Yeah, I'm quite aware of pre-+R Justice and her capabilities already...Wasn't making a comparison between the current and former forms of Justice in the first place. I was comparing Justice's overall abilities to the cast as a whole and when I mentioned "weaker" in my post I was referring to the lower-ranked/low-tier characters of AC e.g. Bridget, Johnny, etc. While considered to be "weaker" characters, the aforementioned were still able to establish some semblance of dominance in matches when given opportunities to shift momentum in their favor i.e. you couldn't let your guard down completely. Also, it's not uncommon to see reblanced characters fall into the outlier spots (either extremely strong or weak). You can look at SSF4 Yun pre-2012 or Ryougi and Seifuku Akiha in PS2 MBAA (the former being insanely strong while the later tremendously weak). Hell, we can even reference +R with Kliff and Justice (again, one character strong, the other weak). Usually an upgrade or patch takes care of such issues though, which I hope to see in the future because unless someone finds some sick tech for Justice...Methinks she'll have to get comfy at the bottom of the barrel. Seems to me like Justice users are holding back or something because I've yet to see this "deadlier" side of the character lol. I mean, you can even look at the vid you linked in your post; Justice getting bonked like in every other vid on the net. Not really a good demonstration of the character's potential, wherever that may lie, in my opinion.

This character...looks horribly pathetic. It's to the point now where I just skip justice match ups in videos to avoid getting upset over how terrible the character's (re)design is. From the looks of it, it seems as if all of her match-ups are unfavorable, uphill battles, and it's obvious that she was designed with the intention to have "strong zoning" capabilities but even this is questionable as the reward for keeping an opponent out doesn't appear to be high enough and is easily evaded. Converting damage off random hits (or in general for that matter) looks like a bitch too. Kinda disappointed in this character thus far, considering the "weaker" characters in AC could still rough your shit up when the going got tough and momentum was established. =(

Haha it seems a lot of veteran players came out for this (most of who I'm clueless about). Decided to go full-fledged GG head once +R becomes available all thanks to this event. Anyhow http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxd-2FxFQ75rGHFsT5Soa1YeR0T3RHxr3&feature=plcp ^^ TeamSpooky stream playlist for anyone who wants to watch themselves pop-off/get blown up/put others on blast.

GOOD SHIT, DAI!!!! Had a fuck-ton 'o' fun chilling out with GG heads and touching the game again since slash days lol. My body will be ready for a Guilty Madness sequel +R Edition, you can bet your ass that. Game's too good/fun. @CRISISEDGE CHECK YOUR PM's IMPORTANT MSG. Also....THANKS FOR LETTING ME USE YOUR SHIT AND CHATTING UP SOME BB @MadScientist MINDGAME (MY BAD) Thanks for Slayer crash course. 100% sure he's the character I want to open up with when +R comes around. @Kyohei Thanks for Eddie matches. Forgot how crazy/fun/OD GG is and I (re)learned so much in just those few matches. I'll body your shit next time :3 @EVERYBODY H-Y-P-E Shoutouts to A2........................GOLD

@THE UNIVERSE What the fu-fu-ok, ok, I get it, I get it. I'LL SHOW UP TOMORROW!! sheesh Cool, looking forward to messing around with it and recording people acting the fool.

Wow 1pm is really good actually. I may try to be there as early as 2-3 to try and get the "interviews" out of the way as soon as possible before the hype ensues. As for the grabbing data off the flip cam, how simple is this (if simple at all)? If it can connect to computer via usb, that would be great because then I could just transfer the footage to my laptop and free up space for more recording. If this isn't an option, let me know so I can think about how I'd like to manage time between player interviews. Yeah, I haven't touched this game since Slash and I pretty much plan to head out for this to get womped, talk smack to players I can't beat, and ask a fuck-ton of character specific questions via the "interviews" I'm planning. Should be a blast! I'll probably post up questions here soon for when I rush down the specialists for q&a so you guys don't look like tools when I'm asking around. Also, most of you guys probably know me anyway so be ready for shenanigans.

Gunflame Bu - Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa????!!!! must...attend....somehow!!! EDIT: I'm also thinking about doing some player interviews for this day via my shitty phone cam if ppl are up for it. If anyone has a REAL cam they'd be willing to donate for the day, that would be a big help. I just ask two things though: If whomever chooses to bring a cam could show well before the event starts and that the cam has some way to connect to a laptop for me to just copy files directly onto my setup. If not, whatever, I'll see what my phone cam can do, it's just for fun/shits-n-giggles anyway.

Will try my damnedest to show for this to talk shit...and show support...and talk shit (...and to be a punching bag). Dis gayum 2 gud.
